So I'll be the first one to discuss the things that you can donate for during the runs, specifically what you the viewers can donate for me to do during my games. Those games are FF1, FF4, and FFX-2. So without keeping things stalled any more, let's get down to what can be bought to make my runs just that much slower than they'll inevitably be anyway due to the dreaded marathon curse of nothing going right. Final Fantasy 1There's really not too much that can be donated for in this game. Not a whole lot of things are optional or are really very far out of the way. There's one thing that can be donated for. For every $100 donated (and it doesn't have to all be by one person all at once) towards it, I will spend 15 minutes attempting to hunt down WarMech. People need to make sure they leave a ChipIn comment specifically saying their donation is going towards finding WarMech. So if people get together $200 specifically for finding WarMech I'll waste half an hour walking around on a bridge trying to get into the fight with that damn monster. Final Fantasy 4There are a lot of optional bosses in this game that I could be made to go after and it could really eat into the time on the run, but for the right amount donated, I'll sacrifice time for it. So what follows is a list of all the optional boss fights in the game and the amount that needs to be donated specifically towards it to get me going after that particular boss. - Demon Wall: $150 (Yes, this boss and the whole dungeon will be skipped. You can make me go through it anyway)
- Asura: $50
- Leviathan: $50
- Odin: $100
- Bahamut: $100
- Pale Dim: $50
- Wyvern: $200
- Plague: $100
- D. Lunar: $50
- Ogopogo: $50
Final Fantasy X-2There's a good deal of optional content in this game as well, and a lot of it can be more than a little out of the way for a run that's focused on getting through the game as fast as possible (yes, even one being played on a new game+). I'm only going to be offering up donations to do one of the optional things in the game. It just so happens to also be one of the most time consuming. For every $100 donated specifically for it, I will rip through twenty floors of the Via Infinito and fight the boss at the end of that 20 floors. So if you get $500 together specifically for the Via Infinito I'll be going through all 100 floors of the dungeon and beating all of the bosses, including Trema.

I will be available to moderate the chat at completly random times, as I don't know when I feel like tuning in.
I could make rough estimations on when I am available if you are lacking moderators.

Just a heads up, the ChipIn is up, and we are officially collecting donations for the marathon as of today and will be doing so until the 21st of June. So, donate if you'd like, tell other people do donate, and spread the word. Let's get well underway to meeting that goal before the marathon even starts!
