The Mario Versus Marathon has begun! The Marathon will be running for 60 hours or longer, depending on how many donations are raised towards charity for DC Outreach. As my current living situation has changed from last time, and I therefore no longer have as much free-time on my hands as I did before, I won't be able to keep this post up-to-date with the going-ons during the marathon as I did with the last one, but nonetheless, there is still a chance that some minor edits and changes will be made to this post as the Versus Mariothon progresses. And as I did with the last marathon, I have also taken the liberty in embedding both streams into this post so that you can view either one, or even both simultaneously, whenever you please. This same format (albeit side-by-side) can also be found on the Triple Speed Runners' Homepage if you would prefer to watch them there, as well.

Again, all donations will be going towards DC Outreach, whose focus is on a rare disease called Dyskeratosis Congenita, and they’re looking to research, treat, and support families of someone with this disease. Currently, the donations widget can be found on the Versus Marathon Web Page as well as on the Triple Speed Runners' Homepage. Also, I have presented the ChipIn Widget in this post down below for easy access.
There is no middle-man; your money goes straight to the charity, so you know your money goes safely into good hands. Your donations could possibly also affect how the marathon runs, as well as net you some pretty nice prizes! From Ocean City Trinity's Blog:
Also, from the Mario Versus Marathon FAQ...:"Remember, your donation could affect the show or win you a prize! Here’s the skinny on that:
* Certain incremental donations will increase the overall length of the marathon, allowing us to continue the insanity a bit longer. Once we’ve reached $780 in donations, the marathon will have reached its longest point and last for 72 hours. See the FAQ for more details on how this works.
* Anyone who donates $30 or more has the option to override the order in which we play the game and select the next game we race each other on (provided it hasn’t already been played).
* Triple Speed Runners will be raffling off a Wii bundle at the end of the marathon. Every $10 you donate will give you one ticket towards this raffle.
* Ocean City Trinity will be giving away smaller prizes to be announced periodically during the show. They’ll come up with a random dollar amount, tell you a range it’s between, and whoever’s donation increments the total above this amount wins the prize."
Q: What does the winner get?
A: The right to nominate the games to be played for the next versus marathon. And bragging rights.
Q: What about the loser?
A: They have to do the Mario. Like in the cartoon.
