Since I don't really know much Russians who speedrun games, this might just turn out to be a 2-3 people short marathon (or simply nothing), but I actually want to see if this can go somewhere.
Online marathon. Will be set in a middle of summer (July/August when I have time). Not going for donations. Speak in Russian. Drink Vodka :P.
But seriously, I want to know. IF THERE ARE RUSSIANS WHO ARE UP FOR THAT - PLEASE RESPOND. Schedule,submissions and stuff - later, when this is a thing.
Oh god...

I'm not really sure where the Russian community hangs out. I know there are a large number of Battletoads & Double Dragon (NES) players in Russia who are extremely good, but I'm not sure how to get in contact with them.

Edit: I sent a PM on Twitch to a friend of mine who is with the Russian Retrogamers, and sent a link to this thread. Hopefully they can help! It would be really nice to give the Russian community some more exposure.

I know 3 guys on SDA forum, I might search for more later on other forums.
AND OFCOURSE.
If you, guys, who read this, know some people, who are accidently russian(or can speak russian) and who do speedruns, but probably don't read SDA forum, please, say this to them, this might help a lot, thanks.

So far I don't know how it would be organised, but right now I need to know, how many people from your community are interested in participating. So ask them.
It will be set online, we will set a server, a re-stream, do commentary, hang out in Skype or TeamSpeak. All the participants should be able to stream.
So far the goal is - enought people for 36+ hour stream, otherwise it wouldn't make much sense to do it, but this might be changed. Planning to be set on July-August, but I mentioned that already.
Waiting for response Wink

P.S. I still don't want to use russian here, so I will write in english. Hope nobody would have much problems with that.

Before I ask my people , you can answer a couple of questions. ?

1 - On which server will be held speed run ? (and what emulator) , but I'm curious , what a ping will be our people , to your server Smiley

2 - You may want to write about, what games will be and on what consoles

what server... I don't know. I will set a server and people will stream there with OBS and XSplit,and I will do a restream (that's how I think it works). For that they should be able to capture a game from console, if they have one, or we could probably just accept emulators. Since I'm from Russia aswell, I don't think that a ping would be a thing to worry about.
Which games - depends on what you can suggest. This is still an open question. First we need to know if people want and can stream.
Like for example, me and wakecold can race Doom, he could do Half-Life, THUG I can do You Are Empty and so on. There was one guy who can do Amnesia.
You, I assume, can suggest some Battletoads or whatever other games you guys there are good at.
P.S. I'm not in a hurry, take your time, think if you are actually up for something like that, then decide, this can wait up to the end of summer at least.

Since I'm Russian. I think I can suggest some games I mainly speedrun Crash Bandicoot series and Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters. You can choose some of them if you want to Tezur0
