The 2012 Crappy Game Complaining Marathon

[kestrell]

Kes: This is a fundraiser for the Cambridge Boys and Girls Club, but really, I think I know one or two people who are champions in this sport. It also seems like a really good exercise for people who want to design their own games and want to know what gamers hate.

"We Mock So They Can Play!"
Twelve straight hours playing games you hate? Live on Ustream? That's what our GAMBIT Game Lab is putting itself through on the 18th. A marathon of misery: the 2012 Crappy Game Complaining Marathon.

Why?

Because we love our local Boys and Girls Club. All the money we raise through our pain goes straight to them.

Are you participating? Or have you in the past?

No, I'm not attending this event, but I have worked with the Gambit lab folks when they have developed accessible games during their summer semesters. Alexx and I are going to the theatre that day. There is also a SCA event and Boskone the same weekend, so there is a lot of geek planning amongst our peers regarding how they will make the various events. Alexx and I are skipping Boskone this year, as we both feel not up to stressful hectic events.
