Hello, first I want to say that I have no past experience with speedrunning events. I recently learned that my local Microsoft store has a theater setup that would be perfect for something like this. Turns out if the space doesn't get used, the community manager gets in trouble.

I have already talked to the Microsoft community manager about the idea of running a speedrunning event and he was completely okay with it. They are okay with us using any game console we wish, as long as it's not a Mac.

I would love to get either local runners, or runners from the northwest to come and speedrun games.

If you know anyone who could help with setting up the event, giving advice, or would want to participate please don't hesitate join the Discord https://discord.gg/bdS64wQ
