So as many people may know, CriticalCyd's offer of Golden Sun 2 (The Lost Age) was accepted for RPG Limit Break 2017, Which is awesome! That said, Cyd does need some help to cover the costs of the flight from Europe to the US. For that, I promised that if he offered and got it in, I’d help run a marathon to try to cover some of the flight costs. Here are all of the relevant details:

FAQ:
How much are you looking to raise?
- Cyd can cover his hotel and food costs, so this is entirely for the flight from Europe to the US and back. As such, our goal is to raise $1,000.
What will you do if we raise more than $1000?
- If we get more than the 1k minimum to fly Cyd out, the remainder of the money will go to help MLSTRM, whose offer of Xenoblade Chronicles was also accepted into the marathon, get from the UK to the US for the marathon. While he can cover his costs, any additional help will make it less of a financial burden to come here from Europe. If there is more overflow after covering his flight costs, I’ll look into seeing if there are any other runners who may experience difficulty attending. If there is any remainder after that, the surplus will be donated to NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness, the charity which RPG Limit Break is in support of) during RPGLB in Cyd’s name.
Why should I donate?
- Golden Sun is a series beloved by many and RPG Limit Break is offering a Golden Sun speedrun a rare chance to have a major marathon showing. Cyd is also an awesome and established member of the speedrunning community who also happens to be really good at the game. Moreover, we believe that RPG Limit Break 2017 will raise more money for NAMI with Golden Sun: The Lost Age on the schedule than without (which we believe the RPG Limit Break committee feels the same way, hence they selected it), and so we believe this will benefit RPG Limit Break marathon as a whole.
Will there be night shifts?
- Yes.
What are the criteria you’re looking for for game submissions?
- We want to see games that people want to watch, could raise money, and that we expect to lead to a fun time for the viewers. Having strong donation incentives are also important, but those come second to making sure that people enjoy tuning into the marathon.
How can I help?
- Offer runs, spread the word on social media, and we are also in need of potential restreamers and/or donation readers. If you’re willing to help on either or both of the latter two, please let me know in the official discord.
