Hi!

I'm going to try and organize a slightly different Mega Man Relay Race this time. The plan is to include the first game in each series, if there is enough runners. Since some games are way (way) longer than others and some are too short, the categories will not all be Any%.

Please post here if you are interested in joining, which games you can play and your PB(s).

Also feel free to post suggestions/questions in this thread.

The rules will be pretty much the same as for the Classic Mega Man relay races. So you should check them out if you haven't!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The time and date
MARCH 14 - 9 PM CET

The games
* Mega Man (All Stages)
* Dr. Wily's Revenge (Any%)
* Mega Man X (Any%)
* Mega Man Zero (All Missions)
* Mega Man Battle Network (Delete IceMan)
* Mega Man ZX (Any%, Normal)
* Mega Man Legends (Any%, Normal)
* Mega Man Unlimited (Any%)

- The runners must use the same or comparable versions of the game, or emulators.
- The race is estimated to be just under 6 hours.

How will the race work?
* Next runner is allowed to start once time is called in the previous game (final hit on Wily/Sigma/Serpent etc..).
* Next runner will start from the title screen.
* The runners needs to be either on skype or IRC (channel: #megamanrelay) in order to communicate when they are done and the next runner can start.
* Only the order listed above is allowed! Teams are not allowed to change the order of the games! If you have opions on the order, let me know.
* The race will be restreamed. Runners will stream to their own Twitch channel with only the game visible and only game sound.
* The current runners will not be allowed in the Skype call, to avoid spoilers and audio issues. However, exceptions can possibly be made if there is no one else that can commentate the game.
* There will be an SRL race. It's the team captains job to type .ready and .done. The team captains also need to set their SRL streams to the restream, for this race. The race wont be recorded on SRL.

Just some guy

I would run Zero All Missions for this. my PB is 35:27.

I've got some internet problems at the moment but those should be fixed by March for sure. My connection isn't great at the best of times so I stream at a pretty low bitrate and 20 fps usually. Here's my pb vod so you can see how it looks: http://www.twitch.tv/flameberger/c/5683455

If that quality isn't a problem I'de be happy to participate if anyone else offers the game.

Something witty

I can run Legends. PB is 1:02:xx in-game time which was roughly 1:08:xx RTA.

This time can go down if I go back to attempts, though.

Throwing some possible games I can do if enough people want to along with my PBs

Mega Man 6 any%: 39:28
Mega Man X7 NG+: 1:00:06
Rokko Chan any%: 25:27
BCAS: 29:00

Edit: can not do current date RIP.
Edit 2: throwing BCAS in case date gets changed for whatever reason.

I'd be interested in running BN1 for this. My PB is 1:35:32 and I own both Japanese and US versions.

StoneMan generally takes between 21-25 minutes.

I could do BN1 as well, although I only own the Japanese version. My PB is 1:41:51 for full-game, just to give you an idea (even though we're not doing full-game). I'm just echoing Prismatic's sentiment about StoneMan generally taking between 21-25 minutes. There's is manipulation present in the run, but up to FireMan and NumberMan beforehand, there is variance in the RNG that can make it a bit screwy. That is why there is such a fun little time variance there.

If you were interested in doing a mildly longer goal up to the next Navi, that would be IceMan and that would be 40-45 minutes. That's entirely up to you though, Jokaah. I'm fine either way.

I think IceMan would be fine then. The other runs are roughly 20-60 minutes, so 40 sounds good.

Also, the date is not set in stone. Apparently there is a marathon that weekend (6-10th), so we might move this to a slightly later date.

I've only been learning Zero All Missions for a few months, but I'd be up to participate, as I wanted to get at least my first few completed runs by end of February anyways XD I've only got the english version of Z1 however, would it be a problem if other runners have the Japanese version?
