I would love to go to my first Speedrunning event <3

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Any%
PC
Estimate 8 hours due to heavy RNG, however the potential for a 7 hour run is there, and with practicing and improvements made every day. If necessary though there are plenty of side missions and glitches that can be shown if its way under the estimate.

Super Mario Sunshine, Gamecube/Wii(whatever let's me play on JP preferably), any% 1:40.

Maybe race with samura1man if he goes?

Quote from Buffseagull:

Crash Team Racing (PS1) any% race with Cypryss estimate 1:10

I'd consider joining this race too (if 3 people isn't too many) though i'd need to learn it again. Haven't done time trials in years and never tried a full speedrun Tongue

Let's throw in another because I need at least one super-obscure Japanese doujin game in, damnit. Even though it hits me I'm starting to give a lot of game suggestions for myself and I still have one more I was considering.

Anyway.

Ragnarok Battle Offline [PC] - Really fun sidescroller based on the MMORPG Ragnarok Online. Great in multiplayer. Ironically would be awesome if it had online play.
Category: "any%" (there's no real way of doing anything else) with Female Swordman
Estimated time: Based on my test run, 1:45:00.
Donation incentives: File name (8 characters, visible throughout the entire run). Pretty much axing the bonus scenario goal - perhaps only the christmas stage, because Golden Thief Bug and Drake are extremely good at fucking me over, so I don't trust being able to do it consistently with a low level character with any amount of training. Also, donation goal to have Kenny sing the opening theme of the game. Which is actually sung by a female.
Other: Closest you'll get to an MMO at a marathon!

Ragnarok Battle Offline ...!
I played that, it really IS fun. Smiley

Also, I've been playing around with it lately, and I dunno if I'll be ready for it until ESA time, so this is a Maybe:
Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin [DS]
Category: Richter Mode Any%
Estimated time: 1 hour
Donation incentives: all Bosses (no Nest of Evil), Japanese or English voices (Richter's and Maria's are the same in both languages, but the enemies have different voice clips), filename, file picture; could make a donation war between Richter and Sisters
Other: See my first post! And as said, I'm not entirely sure if I'd do this, but I just want to put it down in case Smiley

I'm also thinking of picking up Order of Ecclesia (DS)'s Albus mode, but I won't suggest this yet. I wanna fool around with it a little more before I decide offering it.

Actually DALFEN just recently got the wr for any% in PoR (not sure about which character though) and he has also given interest in running it too from what I've heard, so you might want to check around a bit more for the chance of running it or possibly doing a race. However I'm mostly concerned about the fact that I haven't seen anyone volunteering with a DS or 3DS capture yet :/.

Well, there's 4 modes - most people run Jonathan mode, since it's the main one. I don't know what DALFEN runs, though. I'm definitely willing to offer a race of any of these 2 categories I mentioned if we can get a hold of 2 DS captures.
But I'm not willing to do Axe Armor (yet), and I'm not a big fan of Jonathan mode. Tongue

Dalfen has the Any% WR for the Main mode or Jonathan/Charlotte mode or whatever you want to call it. This was done on an emulator so I'm pretty sure that he doesn't have a copy of the game...or any capture device for it.

Thanks for clearing that up, Ozzy. =)
He's welcome to play on my copy if he wants to (though it's the German version, so I dunno if he'd be able to navigate through its menus), though the question for a DS capture still stands.

Edit: Thinking about it... If the costs to going to ESA weren't so high (travel, hotel, venue fee and of course food over the week), I'd just order one myself. >.< And even if I did I'd probably would have to order it about now so it can come in time.

I have several games I could run but I made a selection. In the estimates I have just included run time. If setup takes 5 minutes then add that to the times.

These games I have fully prepared and I think would be very cool to showcase so I would prefer these two.

Shadow Man (N64) - 95 dark souls completion
A great run is around 2 hours 45 minutes - to be safe count 3 hours for the run

Wipeout 64 - all phantom class races
Count 15 minutes for the run

If there's enough time I would also like to do this run:

F-Zero X PAL - Full GP on Master
Count 53 minutes for the run to be safe

Edit:

I read there's still enough time for several games so I'd like to suggest a short run Penny Racers - full AA class GP. Safe estimate is 14 minutes but a good run finishes in 13. In GP this run is quite a challenge with all the weapons the CPU can throw at you so it should make for an entertaining run.

As suggested by Kenny, I could do the following.

Iji (Windows), Normal difficulty, any%, 30-40 minutes depending on how safe I'll play it; dying costs a lot of time. I'll just re-use the route from the SDA run.

Hero Core (Windows), Easy difficulty, in-game 100% (all computers and bosses except Zero), 30-60 minutes maybe. I've never tried speedrunning or making a route for this, as there are so many possible ways to do it. But once I have a route I can start practising it. While I could do Hard 100%, or Easy/Hard/Annihilation any%, those are all incredibly hard and luck-based in a single segment.

Hyper Princess Pitch (Windows), Goddess of Explosions difficulty, 20 minutes maybe. This would be more of a "showcase" or highscore run since the game just isn't made for speedrunning.

I still think it's embarrasing running my own games, as it shows a lack of interest from other players. But I could provide a lot of commentary, mostly trivia or technical stuff, while running. I think people would be bothered by my voice though. :p

Needs a donation goal to do it on Reallyjoel's dad difficulty.

Let the music play!

I'll have to see if I can get there:

Alisia Dragoon normal difficulty - 25 minutes

Maybe a donation incentive for hard mode, but I guess I'd have to practise that lol

Donkey Kong Country - any% All Levels - SNES - 0:45:00 - Race VS Klosty

And possibly a Super Bomberman 5 from me... Still need to figure out if I want to or not :).

This is what I would like to contribute:

Super Mario Kart (SNES) - GP150cc all cups speedrun of PAL version
Equivalent of MKDD all cup tour like Andreas and Richard did last summer. Safe estimate: 40 minutes (average finishing time is 34-35 minutes).

I am trying to make this a race slot by bringing a second highly skilled SMK GP player (Florent, the World Champion, is top of that list).

Example: (starts at roughly 7 minutes)

Partystar

2013-03-11 12:37:46 pm

Donkey Kong Country Returns (Wii) any%. (race possible)

Run time: Below 1 hour and 50 minutes. A safe estimate for a marathon would be 2 hours.

Thought I might post a small update.

We have not yet hit our capacity for games. Giving the list of suggested games, we are currently somewhere between 80-110 hours. Our max capacity is 120 hours. On the mock-schedule everyone who suggested a game was featured with a least 1 title.

Keep the suggestions coming!

I'll throw another short game in there then.

Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back Any% No Go Abuse (PS1) Estimated: 1 Hour.

If there are too many games in the end, ^ this one is the game you should take out. Smiley
