I won't be able to help for the summer marathon but in the future I would love to be able to help in some marathons. I just got started speed-running and to be honest I doubt I will get into it as much as a lot of you. I'm thinking one of the ways I could help in some marathons is to participate in races; probably of the NES era games that are pretty quick and I can practice on an emulator (Castlevania, Ninja Gaiden, etc). I haven't ever done speed runs of these games so I guess my questions are:
1) Is this a good way for a new speedrunner to contribute to the marathons?
2) What games should I focus on?
I also have a PS2 and 360 if there are any games on there that it would be beneficial to practice.
