Dapper as fuck.

CosmykTheDolfyn should be co commentating my Phantasy Star 2 run.

You can do a bid war for StarTropics to name the file name. I believe 8 characters max for that.
Also we could do bid wars for naming Rudo and Amy in Phantasy Star 2, 4 character max on those.

Me and Elad can probably commentate the run as we race

Donation incentive for Dancepad Speedrun by EladDifficult(its kinda his thing). or for a Dove race(pacifist character) estimate on Dance pad is about 10 minutes-15 Dove estimate is 10 minutes

Thanks for accepting the race

So EladDifficult specified in his run description that he was gonna use dancepad regardless what is a dove race exactly?

Why is X7 not a race when I have a better time then KSDC? (His time is 1:06:58 mine is 1:00:23)

Because you already had 3 games accepted four is a bit much

I confirm that I will commentate Philosoraptor's Phantasy Star II run. This will be major HYPE!
I am looking for someone to commentate Mean Bean Machine (although I would love it if Philo could return the favor and commentate it). There's not really too much to explain, I really just need someone to fill dead space in the air since I have a tendency to concentrate pretty hard at this one.
There can be a bid war with Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine and Kirby's Avalanche. There are the EXACT same game down to timing and enemy AI with the only difference being the textures used and the console played on. This is due to them both being ports of the Japanese only title Puyo Puyo.
Hot Wheels can have a bid war on file name. Options are limited to names, but the important thing is all 9 character spaces must be filled and the file name start with a C and end with N for some RNG manipulation (it just ensures that something that works 99% of the time works every time). Options I can think of include:
CapFalcon
CosmosRun
CosmicrUrn
CsmkDlfyn
If anybody else has some file name ideas that fit the above criteria, shoot them out as an idea. CapFalcon is the best name file name so far I'd say, and it may not be worth a bid war due to the file name being tied to the run working correctly.

Edit: Quick thing, my name is spelled wrong all four times it's on the schedule. It's CosmykTheDolfyn, not CosmykTheDolphyn. Sorry about the inconvenience and it being such a long name.

My Rayman Origins run has a donation incentive to beat the Land Of The Livid Dead level after the run, which is a very difficult level only unlocked after beating every Tricky Treasure level. The level is fairly short and should only take me about 6 minutes tops. As for co-commentators, i considered having either Spikevegeta or Twyn_o co-commentating the run, though i haven't talked to either of them so i don't know if they would agree to participate.

For the 3D World race, i can do either of 2 things for donation incentives; i could do Champion's Road (again, another difficult level that shouldn't take more than five minutes), or i could softlock the game and create a very funny graphical glitch in one of the earlier levels. Either one is fine.

For Emperor's New Groove, there isn't really much for donation incentives at all since we see every part of the game in Any%. The only thing i can think of is showing off some glitches, but even then those are pretty boring and not that interesting. For a co-commentator, i could have The_Hentagonist do commentary since he's the current WR holder of the game.

The Land of the livid dead and Champions road incentives are put down i also put The_Hentagonist as the commentator for Emperors New Groove. If you get any commentators for your other runs just post in here again Cheesy

I'm sorry for asking this, but 2 of my runs (Rayman and New Groove) are both at 5AM and 7AM EST respectively, however since i live in Brazil the timezone makes it so that they are at literally 2AM and 5AM for me. I probably won't be able to do 2 runs at ass o' clock in the morning because then everybody will be sleeping and the noise from the games and my commentary will probably cause some unfortunate situations. They'll also be on a Monday morning in which i have school. So i think my runs need to moved to a later timeslot. If that can't be done then i guess i'll have to deal with it and figure something out.

Which one would be able to stay in its spot? I can probs find a spot to switch Rayman Origins if necessary but idk about both

I don't know about which run would be able to stay in the spot. That's up to you. It's just going to be a problem running and streaming a game in the middle of the night while talking, because that'll probably prevent my family from sleeping, in which case i'm dead.

I'm not trying to throw the blame but you shouldn't have said "I'm available pretty much all of march" if this was gonna happen. I'll try my best but if i can't switch it you could just find someone to commentate for you so you don't have to talk.

It's okay, i'm still going to be avaliable the entire month. I understand about the switching thing, if you can't switch i can just stay up a couple more hours and commentate the run normally. I can also skip school on the day of the run so i don't have to worry about sleeping. I'm sorry for the whole thing overall, i know i shouldn't have said that

It's fine really but try to find commentators if you are gonna have troubles commentating yourself

Donation incentive/ Bid war for DKR 100%: I could do a run of Adventure 2, wich is a little bit longer, maybe 5+ min overall and is more difficult than adventure 1, so in that case the estimate could be 2:10:00.

And for the commentator, ive talk to some people, but nobody can comfirm they will be there since it is in 2 months, but i will get some people for sure =P

I've never been the "opening act" for a marathon before. That's a huge honor and a lot of pressure! Glad that I got accepted and that I'm able to participate.

No problem since you are the opening act though that means there is no way for your run having donation incentives but if you find co commentators at any time before the marathon feel free to post them here so i can add them to the schedule Cheesy

That's what I was thinking, but luckily the game I play doesn't have many special things suitable for donation incentives. I'll post back here if anyone wants to commentate with me and it's all arranged.

Thanks for accepting the race

So EladDifficult specified in his run description that he was gonna use dancepad regardless what is a dove race exactly?

Dove race is Racing the same way we do with Cadence We also could have a Bid war between Eli/Monk/Dove/Bard Second race(they are all gimicky characters who change how we beat the game)

If the incentive involves making it longer by doing another race (which is what i got from that) it wont work because knowing our luck we are gonna be on a tight schedule the whole way through XD
