Note: Please read the rules before posting. If you're too lazy to read the entire topic, at least read the tl;dr part. I don't feel like taking sympathy if you fail to take a couple of extra minutes to read the rules, then break a rule.



Other Note: The games list is very tentative right now. don't be surprised if some games are cut later.





Unlike last year's SGDQ, I'm not going to go over some of the games I want and don't want because the format and location of SGDQ is different from previous years. I'm aiming for roughly 100 hours this year, and I'm trying to aim for a game list that is different than AGDQ.



Current Game List: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Alb3Dj0u13H7dGtRMGx2eXo1UkkwN2dBVTdhSFp3Tmc&usp=sharing



However, I am going to set some ground rules based on previous game topics.



-No more than 6 games being suggested. There are very few people who can even do a good job of running more than 6 at a marathon, and I was not one of them.



-Don't suggest games you are not going to run yourself, that just clutters the thread.



-No, "I could run this but I really don't want to." Also clutter.



-No technical stuff (like how to make the game work). If you're not confident you can get the game running then you probably shouldn't suggest it.



Suggest the games that you would really love to play for a marathon. You may pitch your games, but make the pitch length around the length of a tweet. If you need to take longer to explain why your game is good for a marathon, then the game probably doesn't speak for itself and shouldn't be in a marathon.



Break one of these rules and your potential 6 games goes down to 0 games.



Last but not least, POST TIME ESTIMATES!



If you try making dupe accounts or guest posting to get around the games limit, then congrats, you still get zero games.



No posting with further game requests after you make your first games topic post. I will temp-ban you for a week if you do this.



The only exception is if I overlooked your post, then you may post again to remind me.



Last but not least, I require time estimates too! Preferably with some setup buffer. Generally five minutes of setup per every half hour or so is a pretty decent indicator.



tl;dr: Suggest no more than 6 games (this is a maximum, not a minimum!) that you would love to play at a marathon. Not games that you would hate to play or maybe you would play, but games that you really want to play at a marathon. Suggesting more than 6 games or randomly suggesting fluff means you get ZERO games.



Other mods, please don't act if someone breaks a rule, I need to see it for myself.



P.S. If you are wondering, yes, I am planning on using a similar format for the next AGDQ to try and keep things under control. While this format is not necessary for SGDQ, it does lay the groundwork for future marathons.
