Today started out interesting. Travis randomly called me and said he was stopping by to play some stuff on the broadcast. He came over around 10:30 am and then we proceed to have a conversation about the Zelda Race later this week. Brad had been playing some Ocarina and we started chatting about the game and how we planned on tackling it. I'm not sure how much was truth and how much as hidden. I got really excited about the event though.I came home from work to find Brad still playing Ocarina. I've got a little anxiety about the event since it's been a while since I played Ocarina all the way through. I'm worried it'll taken more than 12 hours to beat the game as it will be taxing on all of us. I'm also wondering how Nick has been preparing as he will be the favorite going into this. I'm not going to let out on what I've been doing but I'm expecting everyone to bring their A game come this Friday.
We've officially set the time for 3:00 PM, Friday November 21. Everyone should prepare accordingly. Food, drinks, and anything else needed should be prepared by each of the 4 Players. We will all be allowed to do whatever we feel is necessary, ie going out for food, taking breaks, sleeping. Anything besides touching another player or messing with their controls or systems will be legal. We'll go over the official rules before the event, but please leave comments or suggestions on what should or should not be allowed.
4 Days Left...

I will tell u how I have been preparing... I haven't. I haven't had time. My training will probably consist of me reviewing the strat guide for like an hour the night before. lol. Im screwed...
Will everyone be skipping the cutscenes?
Or are you planning on using them for washroom breaks, stretches, etc.?
Also, since I believe that you're using one stream for the in game video, I suggest that you have an in room camera (kind of like what you did for the charity event), but have the camera behind all the players to kind of help show everyones progress and antics.
David, not to brag, but I'm one of the best Ocarina of Time players out there, and I'm rooting for you.
Ask for my help if you need it, take my advice when I give it.
I remember 90% of the puzzles as it is, and a few handy tips to shave off minutes. I'm here for you, man, and you're gonna win.
It might not be a bad idea to come up with a 'free' time out. Maybe 10 minutes or so that doesn't count as part of your total time. When you were done playing you would just subtract that time if you had to use it.
But it would have to be something important, not just needing some food or going the bathroom.
Things might come up that have to be dealt with, some sort of family issue, maybe work or school or something (I don't really know your personal lives so I don't know what obligations you might have).
Regardless, good luck all and I look forward to watching some of the event.
