Slight change of plans; remove Resonance of Fate for me and replace with Shadow Hearts: From the New World (est: 5:30:XX). I ended up learning this game instead of the other.
Game: Strider (2014) Category: Any% | 100% Estimate: 35:00 | 1:50:00 Info: This game is a technical and glitch heavy speedrun. Any% sequence breaks right to the end while 100% collects all 211 items in a completely unintended order. These are my main speedgames of 1.5 years experience. Videos:
Game: Sonic rush adventure Category: Any% Estimate: 1:07:00 Info: The 2nd game in the rush series, has plenty of unintended skips, but also has sailing sections ala phantom hourglass to get to levels. Video:
Game: Kirby tilt and tumble Category: Any% Estimate: 16:00 Info: You tilt a gamecube while pressing buttons on a ddr pad to move kirby around. A surprisingly good speedgame for how hilarious it is. Video:
tff3 marathon video
Game: Sonic CD (2011) Category: tails any% Estimate: 30:00 Info: Well known sonic game remade with tails as playable. Plenty of flying over levels, good music and fast gameplay. Video:
Availability: I work weekends and Monday. Tuesday, Thursday or Friday 10a-10p EST and Wednesday 3pm-10pm EST are my available hours. Side note, I would really love to get some commentators for my games and I'll be reaching out for those.
Availability (DO NOT GO AGAINST THIS PLEASE) times is EST Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays: 3PM-5:30PM Tuesdays and THursdays: 3PM-8PM Weekend of 12 and 13: 9AM-9PM Weekend of 19 and 20: gonzo
Game 3: Super C Category: any% estimate: 20:00 PB video (note: I have a 16:42 without the code but no video because I can not stream currently, I will be able to weeks before the marathon): http://www.twitch.tv/thepeterafro/v/12277640
(Hopefully) final update for me. I'll just go ahead and say my availability is before 3 PM and after 11 PM from Mon-Fri, before 4 PM on Sat, and any time on Sun. All times are Pacific. Would prefer a Sunday, but any other day works just as well for me. I might run into another schedule change before the marathon, but I seriously hope not.
Game: Lufia 2 - Rise of the Sinistrals Category: Any% glitchless Estimate: 4:05:00 Misc Info: It's a staple in our community and new RNG manipulation makes Camu Jewel strats a lot more consistent. Fast paced RPG with a pretty low overall run time, because of the fact that you can avoid almost all battles. Also cool puzzles.
Game: Super Meat Boy Category: Any%/106% Estimate: 22:00/2:05:00 Misc Info: Safe estimates for now, would put more practice into the game if it gets in. Super Salt Boy is a cool and fast paced platformer with excellent controls. I know I'm not the best runner, but hey, might as well try. It's my first speedgame after all.
Game: Rocket Knight Adventures Category: Any% easy Estimate: 30ish minutes Misc Info: Can't really put a more precise estimate since I've not learned this game yet, but I've been wanting to for a while. Since my internship is coming to an end I should have the time necessary. Opossum with a jetpack, enough said. Seriously though, it's a nice platformer where you mainly rely on smart jetpack usage to speed through it.
Projected Availability: I should be available whenever, since my internship ends Dec 4th.
Let's make this big. And I mean even bigger than last time!
P.S.: Willing to help out with any admin stuff and so on. Goes without saying.

Twitch: FoREVer4258 Game: F-Zero GX Category: All Tracks Snaking Estimate: 1:15:00 Availability: Any day, preferably in the day time (EST) Video of run:
Description: Snaking is a very fast trick that can be done in GX. It allows for incredibly high speeds to be achieved quite easily, and is very intense. It is hard to pull off, as it involves strafing back and forth from left to right quickly. I have performed this run many times in marathons, and all have gone over very well.
Hey, I edited my submission on page 6 for Landstalker - The Treasures of King Nole. Here is what I added:
Misc: Very executionheavy and zeldaesque 2D-isometric action-adventure not everyone can handle. RNG and poor execution cost me so many wr-attempts. For the marathon I planned a more save approach. Video: My English Any% Magicsword PB of 2h14m19s - http://www.twitch.tv/taloof/v/26992676
I am ferociously practicing Magicsword & Thundersword route. Pushed my sum of best down a lot to a ~2h08m30s in an attempt today! WR is 2h11m58s by Ratfunk. Even if my submission shouldn't make the cut I honestly thank you for being part of my motivation to get the wr back!

Game: Momodora 3 Category: Any% Easy Estimate: 10:00 Misc Info: http://www.twitch.tv/mikansbox/v/27022744 PB vid. It should be easily improvable. I have no idea why the sound lags behind. Projected Availability: I don't know my work schedule until a week before any given date, but it is flexible enough that I should be free any time.
Game: Final Fantasy XII NTSC-J Category: Any% Estimate: 7:20:00 Misc Info: Language doesn't make too much of a difference to me, I'm run English if need be.

Game: Deus Ex: Human Revolution Category: Any% Estimate: 50:00 Misc Info: The run has changed notably since scrubathon 3 where I also ran this game and I always appreciate the chance to get to show this run to people who haven't seen it before. Since ESA it has grown in popularity considerably and the time has been pushed down to around 39 minutes without loads (~43 with RTA). Video: (Current PB/WR) Availability: GMT timezone, but very flexible so within reason pretty much any time works for me
