Submission Details
- Potential runners must be in our Discord server, as that's our main method of communication, and where the marathon will be hosted. Submissions from runners who are not in our server by the time submissions close will not be considered.
- Submission videos are required, and must contain a completed run of the submitted game and category, under estimate, by the same runner(s) who submitted. Submissions that do not follow this rule will be disqualified.
- Commentary in submission videos is strongly recommended. If you cannot provide commentary in your submission video, feel free to link to another example of commentary somewhere in your submission info. This is not required, but good commentary will greatly improve your chances of being accepted. It is acceptable to have another person commentate for you, but they must also commentate your run if it's accepted.
- More info for accepted runners will be given after the schedule is released.
