The Idea: Basically, this is a real time race of OoT (and maybe MM sometimes). Everybody waits in chat for the signal, and at the "go", they all begin a new file.
The catch? The players learn the goal of the run only while waiting for the intro cutscene to finish. This means there are no pre-planned routes or practicing sections: you have to make up and execute your path on the fly. Don't worry if you aren't the most knowledgeable in OoT - without premeditation, it is unlikely that obscure tricks will be thought of and used. Basically, all you need is decent skill, decent glitch knowledge, and the ability to think fast and play fast at the same time.
Since this is a new experience for everyone, it will probably be pretty chaotic, and anybody could win. Just post your progress every once in a while in irc during cutscenes so we can see the competition unfolding. Chances are, this will be great fun to everyone involved.
I'd imagine doing one impromptu race a month, on some given time such as the first saturday or last sunday. When the best time would be is up for discussion, as we want to incorporate as many people as possible.
But yeah, right now nothing is happening. If enough people show interest, we'll pick a date for the first one and see how it goes. Post any suggestions or support in this topic.
