    I am going to do They Stole Max's Brain! at between GMT 5:00PM to 6:00PM. Maybe after, I shall do Beyond the Alley of the Dolls. Then if I have 1 hour and a bit left, possibly The City That Dares Not Sleep.

    Ice Station Santa:1 hour 23 minutes.

    Taking a break to stream awesome indie game VVVVVV.

    Wow, it's already started. I don't know how much time I will have for this, since it turns out that this year of school will be a lot tougher than the last.

    Anyway, I hope I'll be able to stream Hit the Road on Wednesday. I'll be using an MT-32 sound module with the game, which allows for some nice-sounding music. So if you like that module, or are just curious about how it sounds, you might enjoy paying a visit to the stream. http://www.livestream.com/hagmo

    Here's my proposed schedule for the whole race. Subject to change:
    CHANGED! Will announce the actual schedule later.
    Hit the Road on Wednesday 15 (around 12:00 GMT)
    Season 1 on Sunday 19 (around 12:00 GMT)
    Season 2 on Wednesday 22 (around 12:00 GMT)
    Season 3 on Sunday 26 (around 12:00 GMT)

    I might have to move season 2 to Saturday 25 depending on how things turn out.


    This is going to be great. I look forward to seeing you on livestream, and really hope I'll be able to come and watch some streams as well.

    Good luck to all participants!

    I'm really sorry, I don't know what gives. I pressed "go live" once the games had started and I've just checked now to find the vids haven't uploaded! Whether or not you trust me is up to you (perhaps I should do 101 and 102 again and knock 2 off my do-overs?). Anyways my times were:

    101 - 58 mins
    102 - 52 mins

    Starting 103 soon. It might go on LS, it might not.

    Edit: my bad. I only saw one thing, which I took to be my warmup vid when I signed up. Twas my channel, duh! Anyways...

    I estimated how long it took for 101 because I didn't think I'd need to time it. According to the LS, I took 46 mins.

    There are two separate streams for 102 because the game crashed. Do not be alarmed by me selecting the wrong save; I corrected that immediately once I realised what I'd done and subtracted the time to catch up to where I was when I crashed from my total time.

    Edit2: Having played through the vids, my estimated time for 101 is nearer the mark.

    Omg, I really must apologise for the poor quality of these vids. I've now learned Alt+Tab breaks up the stream, an ejected but still enabled mic produces static and full volume produces a really bad recording. I will attempt to fix all of this for 103, like I reduced the recording quality and graphics to remove the jumpiness 101 -> 102.

    Thanks, I appreciate it. I'm still trying to finish combing through to pick out times, and I think I have my Excel sheet for this race mostly done, so you don't have to worry about adding up your season times (unless you want to). I actually have more times recorded than I have in the OP, I was just about ready to pass out by the time I got to work on it last night. I'll try to get everything up to date soon!
  • edited September 2010
    You're welcome. I don't mind adding up my time. Since you are doing all of this work, I thought it would be nice to help out.
  • edited September 2010
    Well, thanks! I hadn't realized just how far I could get behind by missing four days.

    Oh, and since I haven't said it already...

    I officially declare the First Great Sam & Max Race of 2010 open!

    Gentlemen, start your computers!
  • edited September 2010
    Done with 101! My time is 49 minutes, 6 seconds

    Grr! Just when I thought I'd recorded a game acceptably, it hadn't bloody recorded! **** **** ****. Oh well. It was about 50 mins. I won't get anywhere near winning, so it doesn't really matter if I'm a minute or two out. I refuse to cheat!

    Starting 104 shortly. Will be properly stopwatched, as well as another (probably just as feeble) attempt at recording.


    Just to think I actually want a job in IT and can't even get this right.

    It didn't open for everyone until today. Everything before was special exceptions. Anyway, let me have my fun.
