Plays games quickly. Eventually.
Spudcon Schedule!
Greets there boys and girls! I've been talking about having an event at my house for a while, but never really done it because of my location. But asking around seems to have generated some interest, so we're gunna do this!
(Just in case it isn't obvious, If you have to choose between ASM and this, go to ASM, this will be tiny and chill as fudge.)
What?
A streamed speedrun/gaming event at my house.
When?
March 29th - 31st.
We'll get people arriving on the 29th, and we'll start streaming on the 30th.
Where?
My house in Ararat, VIC.
Sounds good, I'm thinking about coming, what do I need to know?
Engage gratuitous attendee details below.
How? (The fuck do I get there?)
Fly to Melbourne, Train from Melbourne to Ararat direct (Check times!) or train to Ballarat and I'll pick you up the day before.
Accommodation
About 8-10 people can stay at my house. If we go over that, I'll get some details on other accommodation.
Cost?
If you're staying at mine, $20. If you're staying elsewhere, or wanna cook (Or buy) everyone a meal; free.
Not sure if you can make it?
I'm fine with people deciding last-minute, but accommodation and runs will go to the people who can 'book in' early.
Charity
None, this is just for funsies. If people sub during the marathon, I'll buy you all some candy or something.
Caveat
The expression of interest form I handed out a while ago had a decent amount of submissions, but things may have changed, or may change before the date.
Basically, just be aware that we might end up having a tiny event with like, 3 people. I'll keep you all updated on submissions though.
What to expect
Glorious 480p @ 800kbps streaming to my channel.
HDMI and composite streaming setup.
PAL consoles supplied: PS2, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Gamecube, Wii U.
Non-PAL consoles: Super Famicom (J) and Sega Genesis (US) with flash carts and 3rd party controllers.
A old game PC with a GTX 760. (Runs most modern games in the 30-60fps region.)
Big TV and couch for spectators.
What to not expect
A CRT. (I have a 144hz 1ms LCD though.)
Getting shitfaced.
Other stuff to do in Ararat.
Air conditioning.
Internet. (Wifi use will choke the stream, so it'll be BYO 3G/4G.)
Fly to Melbourne, Train from Melbourne to Ararat direct (Check times!) or train to Ballarat and I'll pick you up the day before.

Content
We'll of course be doing speedruns, but I'm also interested in 'exhibition' runs. So glitchfests, challenges; maybe you're a tetris grand master or something, anything cool you wanna show off that people might not have seen before, basically.
Short speedruns with good commentary preferred, everything concidered though.
Signs-ups are closed. We have more than enough content for 2 days. I'll work out a rough schedule soon. If you're still interested in coming, but missed the sign-up form, let me know. All are welcome, I just can't guarantee runs/accommodation for everyone past this point.
Hope to see a bunch of you there. \o/
