Nine fingered monkey from hell

It's Sunday morning, four o'clock, and we've just reached the last 'level' of Assassin's Creed 2. There were slight misunderstandings on our part, mostly with the fact that we did not realize that our copy of the game was the platinum version of the Game of the Year-version, and thus had all the DLC's embedded in the game. Which prolonged the game tremendously. I think I can abbreviate all of our feeling to a simple word:

"FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU."

Now we have 14 hours or so left to finish AC2 and start Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. Most likely we won't be able to finish Brotherhood since we're not fast pro gamers or anything, but we're doing the best we can.

Old fags and young boys

It is 6:58 AM and the marathon has been going on about 12 hours - I, being a first-timer in these marathons, have been up all the time, though soon I'll get couple of hours of sleep now that boss has been killed and blah blah blah.

First Assassin's Creed has officially been taken to the end and second game is running on; we started about half an hour ago. Everybody is a bit tired, and levels of "amusing jokes" is just magnificent, but no complaining - we have fun! We have had loyal streamers with us in the chat the whole night, thanks for everyone, and after some frustrating fights and interesting running-from-damn-guards situations, we indeed finished the first game - two more to go. :3

Assassin's Creed 2 started really.. nicely with Baby Born Ezio, shut-the-fuck-up-please-Lucy and Desmond in the trunk; but no more of these hardcore spoilers, if you want to follow, follow! ;3 Stream is going on all the time to the Sunday evening.

Feelings from the gaming group in the moment:
"Yay!"
"Having fun, good-working game marathon"
"herp-derp-herp"
"Can't sleep, too high"
"Fuck yeah"

Assassin's Creed -marathon info

I'm sorry, I promised to update faster but again time went so fast that suddenly it was friday already. As some may already know, the AC marathon will be held today at 6 PM (+2 gmt).

I didn't manage to verify my Livestream account so the viewer limit will be set to 50 viewers. Such a small amount is very problematic so we're looking for other options. We might try to stream at Ustream since it doesn't have viewer limits. We will do that only if we have to, if many viewers are left out when we stream at Livestream. No worries I will update the stream link here.

So again, the games that we're playing are Assassin's Creed 1,2 and Brotherhood. The first game we will be playing is Assassin's Creed 1. Kiraito might be the first one to play since she will be playing only at day time in this marathon.

We will be figuring out our co-host rules soon. This marathon has more players and people to follow the chat. So we might not need as many co-hosts as in the Zelda marathon. But there's surely places open for co-host at night time at least.

More to come ~


Livestream - Assassin's Creed marathon - 6 PM

Took off the Stream window ~

Hyrule was saved almost thrice four weeks ago

This is just a small report of our on-the-spur-of-the-moment Zelda marathon that was held in 21.-.25.4. Like I mentioned, we didn't plan to have this marathon. I just figured that since I had four day long weekend I might as well do something interesting then. We didn't promote this marathon almost at all. Despite that we got many viewers which was awesome. Thanks for everybody who were watching! :D

We chose to play Zelda because Kiraito hadn't played Zelda games before. This was pretty good way to introduce her to the series. The games that we played were Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess. We're not Zelda experts so it took us all that time to complete two and 3/4 games. The last thing we managed to do in the marathon was to finish the Oocca -place in Twilight Princess.

We started at 21.4. 8 PM and ended the marathon at 25.4. 8 PM. That makes an unbelievable 94 hours of marathoning! I didn't even think that we would be playing that much. Even though we had our hands full with only I, Yufii and Kiraito playing the games, Lefrin visiting on sunday, we survived. I thank all the co-hosts that visited the marathon too.

I will be adding couple of videos from our Zelda marathon later. Stay tuned for the upcoming Assassin's Creed -marathon info!
