i've made a small speed run marathon based on arcades called The Arcade-A-Thon where speedrunners can race against the clock from 6 games back to back, i would like to give speedrunners an old school challenge on arcades. is it possible that my speed run marathon can be a thing for this community?

@Planetaryashes For the purposes of this thread, marathons are planned events like Games Done Quick, ESA, etc. where various speedruns are presented over the course of a few days, and we have a few specific requirements for this listed in the first post of this thread.

What you're describing requires a leaderboard, not a marathon page. Looks like you've already submitted a game request for this.

Hello new marathon request here!

Name: Fastest Furs Fall Festival 2020 Venue: Online Charity: Trans Lifeline Date: November 12-15 Mods: @moonblazewolf , @Shockwve , @LaurieDBunnykins , @podz , @oasus Stream: http://twitch.tv/fastestfurs Twitter: http://twitter.com/fastestfurs Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_uJBb_6IFbNv83nb1lWS3Q Discord: http://discord.gg/JzeypTh

We are also interested in using speedrun.com for donations (pending response from the charity for a direct donation link).

First time using SRC for our events (but I have been a part of past events that used it), so please let me know if you need anything else! I am going to ping all the mods listed above on our discord to verify they have enabled email verification.

UPDATE: I just heard back from the charity with a direct donation link so we should be good to go there. :)

@DrMaxtermind Apologies for the delay: https://www.speedrun.com/thunderthon2020 I could not find some of these users, as well as user @sneevil needs to enable "Require e-mail authentication" in their settings before they can be added.

@fGeorjje https://www.speedrun.com/winter_nfsathon2020 Two notes:

  1. SecondLtBadger does not have e-mail authentication enabled in their settings so I was unable to add them.
  2. If the date needs to be set to 4-6, let me know if you are unable to and we'll adjust it.

Hey, I'm part of AusSpeedruns, the team that organizes ASM, ASM@PAX, and now FAST. Currently we have a marathon page at speedrun.com/asm, but I was wondering if we'd be able to get a team page? We've been running bi-annual events since 2015, so it'd be good to have a log of that here.

Thanks :)
