Sorry for the late response! Srcom did not notify me anyone posted in the forum. You can join the discord server at https://discord.gg/fNyhmJP and will be allowed full access to the server if you submit a run!

Yeah, probably
If anyone is interested in streaming part of the marathon, please leave a reply below. Please include examples of streams you've done in the past and your computer specs. You must be able to stream at 720p60fps at at least 2500 bitrate. (Note this is not required for runners, just for streaming the marathon) You must also have a decent microphone, little to no background noise, and be able to speak clear English. Having advanced knowledge of streaming will help you get the position.
Responsibilities include: • Hosting the marathon (Interacting with runners, reading donations) • Setting up the layouts for each game • Keeping a calm, professional, non-profane attitude. • Streaming until your shift is over • Managing the discord call, to ensure only the right people are in the call with you • Making sure the stream runs smoothly • Staying awake • Probably more stuff I forgot, but you'll figure out
Respond below with why you should get the position.
Edit: The reason for requesting streamers/hosts this marathon is because these are becoming increasingly longer, this being the longest! (12 hours more than Sonic Speed 2017) It's becoming harder and harder for me to stay awake the entire time. (And unhealthy)

I think the timer rule is a bit silly especially if someone has a video of them doing a run in one sitting. I'm not sure that I've seen a rule like that anywhere else. I'd say it should be recommended but not required and if it's wr it should still be retimed anyway and required to have the full vod.
