SCRUBATHON VI (Online Marathon) (December 9/10 - December 17/18/19, finalized dates tba)

HoHoHoHo, we are steering towards Christmas and what better way to celebrate early than to have 100 speedruns on stream back to back! Scrubathon returns for its 6th installment!

Everybody is welcome to submit their games and runs, may it be to show their game off to others, practice marathon commentary or practice in a marathon setting. Every game is welcome but be wary, there is only so much time on the schedule we can accomodate for!

Logistics:

The marathon will be held at twitch.tv/elmagus, as per usual.
Dates are going to be either December 9/10 (start) to December 17/18/19 (end) , decision on finalized dates will be made soon.

FAQ:

What is the goal of this Marathon?

Enjoy speedrunning. Practice for marathons. Show off games. Thats pretty much it.

What are the deadlines?

Submissions: Until November 13th
Cuts:            November 19th/20th
Schedule:      probably around November 27th/28th

How do submissions work?

To keep it as transparent as possible, you can submit your games in this very thread right here. I will have the submissions listed on a google doc tied together with the schedule, helpers and restreamers and all the info you will need.(see below once i have set up the doc)

As for the submissions itself, please follow the following rules:

-Please only submit a max of 5 Games. If you have multiple categories you can play, that will still count towards 1 game only. (DELN PLEASE)

As for how the submission should look, I will give you an example down below: (PLEASE USE EST IF YOU CAN FOR YOUR AVAILABILITY, IT MAKES MY LIFE WAY EASIER)

Game: Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
Category: Any%/100%
Estimate: 2:15:00/2:45:00
Misc Info: Can race with Runner X, Runner Y and Runner Z
Projected Availability: I should be available June 21st - June 29th from 4PM - 8PM EST (PLEASE USE EST IF YOU CAN FOR YOUR AVAILABILITY, IT MAKES MY LIFE WAY EASIER)


You can edit your submissions if you want to, just let me know about it in some way so i will actually notice it!

Can I help even if I don't want to play?

Yes, yes you can! Stuff like Artwork (Banners/Layouts/Logos) and Chat Mods/Restreamers or whatever are always appreciated! However I would like to wait until End of November for people to sign up for help, since I will be busy with sorting out runs anyways.

How do I contact you if I have any more questions?

There is a couple of ways to do so, you can PM me here and on twitch, you can go to the SRL IRC (my name is eLmaGus- on there) or find me on Discord.

Commentary

If you would like to commentate for something, hit up the RUNNER, the runner will then tell me that you will be commentating for him. That way I can make sure the runner is okay with you commentating.

Misc Info

Game List

With that, happy submissions, looking forward to what you guys have in store for us this time!

EDIT1: When you submit, for your availability if possible please give me exact timeframes for the time (i.e. Tuesday from 1PM EST - 5PM EST), again if possible. That helps me out a lot when i try to schedule. I realize its difficult to anticipate exact times you are going to be available, but it makes my life way easier.

Game: Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (DS)
Category: Albus Mode any%
Estimate: 0:35:00
Misc Info:

ACTUAL RUN DESCRIPTION

It's your boy Frozer, the guy that could fill up with top notch speedruns when somebody was missing with another, high quality speedrun of Castlevania. This time, I'm playing as the smug, magic-gun wielding, kickin' while blazin', eyebrow raisin', optical shotting, teleport rockin' bus named Al....bus.

This game requires usage of the DS touchscreen and the regular buttons at the same time. To do optimal movement, I would need three hands, which I currently don't posess. Luckily I can do this with only two, but it requires some high APM. And everyone likes that. It also has some challenging bossfights such as Dracula and Shadow Dog Wolf Man. He also shouts his attacks, including "You can't hit me!" which isn't an attack.


NO FUN VERSION

You play as Albus, a character that can teleport around and use various attacks to kill most of the bosses as quickly as possible. It has great music like most of the CV games and Albus' teleport ability is unique to him.


Projected Availability: pretty much everytime after 8pm until 1am. On weekends I should be fully available.

Again, if someone's unavailable, I can fill out the spot with various type of runs.

Category: Randomizer
Estimate: 45:00-1:30:00
Misc Info: Race me!!! Randomizer, contestants step up!! I think showing off the randomizer would be very cool and fun... and cool... like a 4 way randomizer race
Projected Availability: 7am-1am EDT
Game: Radiant Historia
Category: Any%
Estimate: 3:50:00
Misc Info: A journey through time that makes for an interesting RPG since 99% of cutscenes can be skipped. Radiant Historia remains largely glitchless so to make it a speedrun the party goes by severely underleveled. Boss battles get really intense at times! I'm super rusty but I'd love the opportunity to show how the route's come along again.
Projected Availability: MON-FRI from 8PM EST to 1AM EST. Weekends 9AM to 1AM EST. For now I can do all days but with holiday season you never know. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Game: Shovel Knight
Category: Any%/Race
Estimate: 55:00
Misc Info: Can race with any of the other SK runners that may submit. (3ngag3, MunchaKoopas, Primorix, Smaugy, ExploudYourEar, Maestro227)
Projected Availability: I should be available December 9th - 19th from 7pm-2am EST
Video: https://www.twitch.tv/sdiezal/v/40348854


Game: Mega Man 2
Category: Any%/Zipless
Estimate: 00:35:00/00:35:00
Misc Info: Mega Man 2 Any% with zips is always a fun speedrun to watch, with using items and glitches to advance further in the stage. This any% run only does the zips that cannot be softlocked which would lead to an instant game over, which makes a good marathon safe run. Can also run the zipless category which is only 2-3 minutes difference in my any% PB, and shows off every room in the game using multiple items to skip many obstacles and enemies along the way. I am also down for a race between either category with anyone else who submits and would like to race as well.
Projected Availability: I should be available December 9th - 19th 7pm-2am EST
Video: https://www.twitch.tv/sdiezal/v/85190715


Game: The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past
Category: No Major Glitches
Estimate: 2:00:00
Misc Info: This run will definitely be scrub enough for the marathon. Only doing the easy bomb jumps and a few of the optimal boss strats. Will probably have a quicker estimate by the time of Scrubathon but pretty new to the speedrun.
Projected Availability: I should be available December 9th - 19th 7pm-2am EST
Video: https://www.twitch.tv/sdiezal/v/91541309

Game: Threads of Fate
Category: Rue New Game+
Estimate: 3:10:00
Misc Info: Threads Of Fate is a PSone 3D Action RPG made by Squaresoft that features two different characters to play as. This run is for Rue New Game + which gives the player increased stats from the previous playthrough. This makes many boss fights faster and focuses on optimizing movement and enemy/boss quick kills using Rue's morphing ability which allows him to transform into any standard enemy he defeats. Text and dialogue boxes can be skipped quickly so story sections aren't terribly long and also has one of the best soundtracks on the PSone.

Projected Availability: any time for this one.

Game: The binding of Isaac:afterbirth
Category:9 char(jud6s modded)
Estimate: 2:00
Misc Info: jud6s is a fixed version of afterbirth made by the racing/speedrunning community to make the game more consistent I run using a modified versions of 9 of the characters which gives them the d6 drasticly reducing times of each character and the resets to around an average of 14 minutes per character.
Projected Availability: between 7pm est and midnight est

Game: crypt of the necrodancer
Category: Cadence unseededEstimate: 15 min/10 min
Misc Info: Cadence is the base character
Projected Availability: between 7pm est and midnight est

Edit: Dropped Undertale Genocide since my current keyboard makes the run overly difficult
A chance to scrub for the first time!

Game: Mega Man 2
Category: Any% normal
Estimate: 35:00
Misc Info: A game that needs little introduction. The any% with zips speedrun exploits glitches to advance further in the stage—sometimes by huge leaps and bounds. Most zips that can potentially soft-lock the game will not be used in the interest of time and safety. I would love to race with other speedrunners in this category, but I am totally open to the idea of a solo run.
Projected Availability: December 16 - 19 7pm-12am EST

Game: James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing (PS2)
Category: Operative any%
Estimate: 1:30:00
Misc Info: Everything or Nothing is a fantastic installment to the long-running series of 007 video games. In contrast to most other James Bond games, Everything or Nothing is played in third-person; this perspective requires precise camera control and forward thinking from the player to optimize shots and strategies. This category allows for new games from a previous save file, which permits cutscene skips. Almost all missions can be completed in under four or five minutes, making for fun, fast-paced, and nearly constant action.
Projected Availability: December 16 - 19 7pm-12am EST

Game: Gran Turismo 4 (PS2)
Category: All Licenses
Estimate: 2:15:00 - 2:30:00
Misc Info: This installment of the highly-acclaimed Gran Turismo series has held up extremely well for its age and still provides a quality experience to this day. This category does not aim to finish the game; rather, the All Licenses challenge is a race to earn the Super License as quickly as possible. The gauntlet of eighty license tests in a row requires vast knowledge of the track and car you're driving, as well as refined driving skills. With the huge variety of car and track combinations, a clean, no-failure run will demand only the very best from the driver. This is not an official category on [speedrun.com], but it will be treated as if it will be submitted for verification (timer starts upon beginning the first test, and ends when crossing the finish line on the last test).
