Spyro Let's Races

I hate to be greedy and occupy two threads despite being a member for less than a week; but this topic falls into a different subject to my challenge run post!

INCOMING: SPYRO LET'S RACES

In case you have not heard of let's races, they are a subcategory of let's plays.

In a Let's Race 4-9 participents race a video game from beginning to end, with the winner being the player to achieve the predetermined goal first. The races then continue until all remaining players have either finished or "DNF'd".

Well, I have been a host and participant in several of these races and they can be real good fun. See my two favourite Spyro Let's Races so far:

Spyro 1 LR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEJ5OrA … rK&index=7 / Spyro 3 LR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiJs9xF … K&index=12.

Ordinarily I do these races with people who are members of Games Raced Awfully, but having only 20 members, means that I have raced Spyro with nearly all of them already, so

to tell me if this is something you'd be interested in. I am looking to do a Group for Spyro 1, and then work my way through the Original Trilogy for now. If you sign up, you don't have to do every race, just the one that you want. If there is high interest, I can organise multiple groups. You don't have to be a speedrunner of Spyro, in fact, it's always best to have mixed abilities since we are not SpeedRacesLive, and whilst the races are mildly competitive, we also want them to be entertaining and casual.

Requirements:

1. A decent computer - there will be several applications to run
2. Applications - Skype to Communicate, OBS/Fraps/Game Capture [visual record], Audacity [Audio recording], PSX Emulator or PS Console if you use Game Capture
3. Mic and Headphones/Earphones
4. Not be overly competitive or too serious (being funny isn't a requirement)
5. Be ok with the content being uploaded to youtube

There's nothing else really to add, other than I hope I get some takers. The races I have done in the past have been really enjoyable!

Nice! I don't know if I'll participate, but sounds fun.
