Its me, Briznock, and rastein. 

the Plan:  We start at 2pm Saturday, and play until 2 pm Sunday.

the Rules:  we play seven game sets, rotating one player out...and every once in a while maybe a fourth player to help with the pacing of the whole thing.  Odd man out's job is to take pics? and post updates on dee nee.  Teams will be done by complete random draw.  No all star teams.  ATG.  (infield fly rule, no throwing junk to pitchers.)

We are figuring for around 80-90 games...and plan on maybe even keeping some book for a few games...we may even keep a fourth person around to solely keep book and score so we can figure out which player is most effective for the day. 

We plan on this being an exciting day, and if any dee nee'ers would like to call and get updates, PM me for my phone number all day...

Ours is likely to occur in the neighborhood of Aug. 21-25.

and it will be two people, which means no breaks, no subs...nothing but RBI.  so suck it

Octo and I were going to attempt this as well near the end of the summer.

And GoReds, you think you're pathetic? I'm serously regretting the fact that I'm not going to be home this weekend to monitor this.

Maybe you should figure out all the match ups(teams) in advance to make it go faster

We will have a rotation set up in advance.  But it doesn't really matter how quickly we go.... 24 hours is 24 hours is 24 hours.

I also just had the great idea of video taping every game.  I assume that 24 hours of RBI would fit on a 4-pack of super long play tapes.....

Mr. Blubbo

24 hours = 24 hours, but if you only play 10 games, that doesn't exactly count.  There needs to be a minimum number of games played.  Assumming 20 minutes for each game, that is 3 an hour or 72 games in a 24 hour span.  That doesn't take into consideration slaughters so that 72 game number is on the conservative side.  I expect to see 85-100 games played...
Here's your ball!

Right around game 18 you all will be like, "this royally sucks".
Here's your ball!

I could have fun for about 12 hours, at which point I'd start getting tired of it, that's my guess.  If anyone could get 100 games in 24 hours that would be amazing

I don't think you understand the will power that we all have...... When it comes to shit that is awesome to us and doesn't matter to most people.


If our extra inning games stay at a minimum and we have a few slaughters, there is no reason that we couldn't reach 100.

I think they can do it.  These are the same guys who have bet on the number of shits taken in a year and the shitter has been taking copius notes.

I just wiped my ass then smelled the toilet paper.  What's wrong with me?

the dude either has some high float or a mess between the cheeks.

What's the plan for alcohol intake?  I ask because I believe drinking too heavily early could kill your willpower.  If you're serious about getting this accomplished, you might consider curbing the beer until late in the 24 hour span.  Gatorade, gentlemen, gatorade.

Good luck to you.  This is an excellent use of the available technology.  I will be checking for updates often.  Pics? are required, by the way.

Strassy and I have this figured out.  24 hours of Ho vs. SL.

Briznock

I think we will also be getting a picture of a Lemonparty while playing RBI.....

I am pretty sure this needs to happen.

You are the same person that promised us a video of a BJ while playing RBI.  I don't believe it until I see it.

I think I would make it about an hour in this experiment.  24 hours of video games would be tough enough, but 24 hours of one NES game would be brutal.
"Thank you Mr. Toilet Bowl..thank you for being cool on the side...you're the only one that understands me."

Briznock

24 hours of that fkn music too.  If we don't make it, it will be because all of our heads exloded.
