Name: ResortFest: Winter Rush 2019 Theme: Online Marathon Cause: Flint Water Crisis- https://www.savethechildren.org/us/what-we-do/emergency-response/historical-emergencies/flint Dates: January 31st-February 3rd Length: 4 days Stream: https://www.twitch.tv/resortfestinternational Moderators: Wipeoutjack7, Cmdr, Plyd823, Alaskaxp2, Sir_Tyler, Tendog

We were all watching, I was just waiting for a vod. I'll give em a few days to get a good highlight,

Because how src works is everything is done in IGT or RTA, it doesn't let us change it per category.

The short answer is yes, even back in Feburary Bandow and I agreed that IGT is how Cycling should be ranked. However right now if we try to rank my IGT, we are going to screw up some other category rankings.

Cheers everyone, with the growth of Darkest Dungeon comes runs during marathons, so to encourage this we now have a marathon leaderboard! So if you ever have successfully completed a run of Darkest Dungeon at a marathon, feel free to either submit the run yourself or send me the video on Discord (or post it down in the comments below) and I'll happily submit the run for you! I hope this encourages people to run the game more and brings new people in.

Here is the link to that category: https://www.speedrun.com/darkest_dungeon#Marathon_Runs

Also as a little update, Darkest Dungeon is going to be features in several upcoming marathons!

September 22nd at 11:39am EST is the Necromancer race between Tricrow, SkipMcLazy, and Cmdr at Pixel's for Peace There will be a Swine Prince race between the same three people at Fight Against Time Recharged sometime from November 9th-11th. October 13th is a race betwee**n Tricrow and SkipMcLazy at **ResortFest: Fall Fright where YOU can decide which boss they face (Necro, Swine, Hag, Siren). Also there is a donation incentive to watch Cmdr use the PS4 to his advantage and show off the broken Crocodillian fight after the race. Also during Tough as Nails Cmdr will be running Necromancer.

There are many more marathon runs coming, but at the moment these are the ones confirmed.

We are now keeping track of Wii Fit Plus Marathon runs here!

Hello everyone, we are now keeping track of Wii Sports marathon runs on this spreadsheet here. For Wii Sports Resort, we have used the Category Extension boards to keep track of these. We don't get this luxury here, so we will use the spreadsheet for now.

Hello all that cares about Target Test All Characters. While Gooby was hacking away at Target Test 4, I routed through Target Test 5. The current trick we are following is what I am deeming the "Cannon Throw" route. There are currently 20 characters that can throw the beginning cannon and hit the top left target, and fall and hit the bottom left target. This significantly shortens TT5 runs, changing from an average of 24-25 seconds to 17-18 seconds.

Also note that so far we have yet to find a difference from Brawl and Project M for this. So this is why I am including it here.

Here is the list: Mario Luigi Kirby Fox Game & Watch Diddy Kong Falco Squirtle Ivysaur Ice Climbers Lucario Ness Sonic Wario Toon Link Rob Olimar Lucas Charizard* Ganon*

*Charizard and Ganon have to do a slide throw in order to make the cannon go all the way to the target.

Note there may be more, but this is the list I have so far found. Feel free to add. For the rest of the characters, the best strat so far is to use your cannon to shoot the top left target, then your last target would be the bottom left.

Wario is a great example of this, so I will link it here:

I would like to throw out here that I agree that Wii Party needs an active mod. We have runs waiting to be accepted and no response from anyone.

I completely back Gamingland on being mod. He is super active within the Wii Series Discord, he does so many runs, and always is helpful. He is also mod for Multiple Wii Series and Wii Sports Club. He won't disappoint, he will definitely be a smart pick for mod.

But yes, you seriously need to think about picking up a new mod to accept runs. Other good picks would be Wii Series mod Wipeoutjack7 or Wii Sports Resort/Wii Sports Club mod Alaskaxp2.

Cheers, Cmdr - Wii Series Discord Admin Public Relations Mod of Wii Sports Resort

So now the Wii Sports Discord is now the Wii Series Discord, so now we have a place for Wii Party Series.

Hey everyone, we now have a Wii Series Discord server! So of course there is a Wii Fit Series channel in there!

All you need to do is go to #bots and do !addrole-wiifit

I'm sure what would a fantastic way to handle this would be to have one category for Pro Class, with sub cats of each of the sports, and the a category for Beat the Champion, or as you call it, Zero to Champion, with the sub categories for each sport. That would clean up the leaderboards some and all for more runs to happen.

Greetings everyone. This is a message to anyone who might be interested in running at a marathon that submissions are still open for ResortFest: Fall Fright! Earlier this year, we had a fantastic marathon at ResortFest International, and have several submissions already for the fall version of the marathon.

Some important information about the marathon:

The marathon takes place online, during October 11th through October 14th. Like last time, we are raising money for the Flint Water Crisis, through Save Our Children. You can find more information here: https://www.savethechildren.org/us/what-we-do/emergency-response/historical-emergencies/flint

This will NOT be a 24 hour marathon. We will be basing the hours off of our restreamers, so there will be "Sleep%". From the three of us lined up to restream so far, I expect that runs will be roughly from 9am to midnight CDT. Those times will be more specific and will change to exact times around late September, when we get a confirmed games list with everyone's up to date abilities.

As this is Fall Fright, Saturday is mainly reserved for Spooky Scary Games! If you have a spooky or scary game you want to show off, please submit! We will happily take regular submissions as well obviously, but if you wanted to show off your favorite horror game, now is the best time!

If you are interested in doing a run, feel free to submit a run down below.Any other questions you may have, just message "CmdrYT" on Discord or join the Discord below! We are always free to chat and can answer any questions you have.

Say, when I was running the game, we found a 8.4xx time was the average among top runners.

I'm currently 21

Hello everyone. Normally as marathon runners we try to get all of our games into as many marathons as we possibly can. This week is probably the most Wii Sports Resort will be ran so far this year. We have 4 runs between 2 of us (lol). So I'll list them off here. Come out and support us!

If you still need a mod, hit me up. I just finished up revamping the Wii Fit Plus boards and am painstakingly going though all of Wii Sports Resort's ILs to fix them. But I would love to hop in. I would have seen this sooner, but I am running All Events at a marathon this weekend, so it would be a great time to point out the updated leaderboards.

Also, thank you for updating this! It looks so much better.

And if you want suggestions for mod, MrFun.

Oh it's all cool. It's something that happens in the speedrunning world. I'm just glad no one threw anything this time.
