Favorite TV Show:  Game of Thrones

 

 

Do you need someone to find the most obscure Youtube videos?  Nick's your guy. Or perhaps you need someone to recommend some cheesy movies for you to watch... Nick's got your back.  Or maybe you just want to watch someone yell at your TV when something ridiculous happens... you're getting the point.  When not doing these things, he can be found playing World of Warcraft or Street Fighter IV.  We ripped his hands from the controller/keyboard/fight stick so he can help us raise some money for Child's Play Charity.  Make sure you give him plenty of encouragement. He's our Adventures of Link guy, and we all know how hard that game is.

Currently Playing:  Skyward Sword

Favorite Zelda Game:  Ocarina of Time

Favorite Movie:  Longshot

Favorite TV Show:  Dollhouse

 

 

As our resident engineer, Justin's always ready to tell us that we're doing something wrong, or explain something that we don't really understand.  When he's not doing those things, he can be found designing awesome airplanes, or giving tech support for Apple products.  It really just depends.  I know what your thinking, this guy is really impressive. Well we've saved the best for last.  He's a Time Lord!  That's right, he's left his home planet of Galifrey, and has been traveling through time helping raise money for Childs Play Charity in the decades to come.  We should all be honored to have him be a part of our marathon... for science!

Currently Playing:  Halo Anniversary

Favorite Zelda Game:  Ocarina of Time

Favorite Movie:  500 Days of Summer

Favorite TV Show:  Doctor Who

 

When Chris isn't coming up with crazy ideas on how to rule the world, he can be found with a camera in his hand, filming anything and everything in his path.  As our resident tech guy, he’s the one who put this whole thing together.  He’s also always up to date on the latest TV shows and movies.  Want to know what coming to theaters in 6 months?  You can ask him.  Do you want to know about the latest web series? You can ask him.  All he asks is that you be generous in your donations, and watch us all play Zelda for days. 

 

 

ZACC

aka Hands

Youtube:   

Currently Playing:  Something on Steam

Favorite Zelda Game:  Wind Waker

Favorite Movie:  Goodfellas

Favorite TV Show:  Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia

 

What can I say about Zacc?  He's definitely our go-to person for all awesome literary references, and to sing the falsetto part of "Teenage Dirtbag".  He's also an expert on propane and propane accessories... I'm not kidding.  He's managed to transfer that expertise into some amazing video gaming talent.  You can also find him organizing D&D games, and enjoying drinks named “The Robot”.  It’s because of all of these amazing skills that we have recruited Zacc to help us raise some money for Childs Play Charity.  If we’re lucky, he may perform his incredible renditions on “In Your Eyes” and “Good Vibrations” for us all to see.  Oh, who are we kidding, he’ll sing them regardless.

 

 

 

MATT

aka Matt

Youtube:   

Currently Playing:  Skyward Sword

Favorite Zelda Game:  Ocarina of Time

Favorite Movie:  Ghostbusters

Favorite TV Show:  How I Met Your Mother

 

Have you ever seen someone play a video game, while watching a YouTube video and listing to music…all at the same time?  Well, I have, and Matt’s the guy.  When he’s not doing 25 things at once, he can be found watching movie reviews, and retro game play videos.  If you ever need to find that one episode of TV Show that you saw 10 years ago, Matt will probably remember it.  He’s also our Legend of Zelda player, so give him all of your encouragement,   because he’s going to need it to beat that game.

 

 

 

JON

aka Suds McDuff

Youtube:   joncreeden

Currently Playing:  Blades of Steel

Favorite Zelda Game:  A Link to the Past

Favorite Movie:  Glory Daze

Favorite TV Show:  The Simpsons

 

Every marathon needs an obligatory guitar guy; Jon's ours.  When he's not touring with his trusty guitar, he can be found playing awesome NES games like Blades of Steel, and he’s always ready for a quick game of poker, or a few rounds of You Don’t Know Jack.  He’s proficient in the art of playing awesome cover songs from the nineties, as well as many of his own songs.  Seeing him play live is quite an experience.  I heard that one time, he took off his socks. It was weird.  Maybe if we’re lucky, he’ll play for all of our viewing pleasure (ideally, without removing his socks).

 

 

 

 

LAURA

aka Happydrunk

Currently Playing:  Awesome Tetris

Favorite Zelda Game:  Majora’s Mask

Favorite Movie:  The Princess Bride

Favorite TV Show:  Once Upon A Time

 

We may not have a butcher or a candlestick maker, but all we need is Laura the baker.  If by chance we may run out of ammo, she will always be ready to play upon her piano.  I heard a rumor that she spent a great deal of time in the African desert fending for herself with nothing but a sharp stick and in iPhone.  I’m sure that is totally true and not made up by me in the least.

 

 

 

DAVE

aka Atari Guy

Twitter:  DaveLaferriere

Currently Playing:  Super Meat Boy

Favorite Zelda Game:  A Link to the Past

Favorite Movie: The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly

Favorite TV Show: Mad Men

 

You know that guy that always has a camera wherever he goes, taking pictures of you in embarrassing situations that you hope will not end up on Facebook?  Well, Dave IS that guy.  I don’t mean he’s one of them, he’s all of them.  Traveling around with nothing but a camera and a smile, he’s sure to have his finger ready to take that snapshot.  Dave knows better than anyone that you have to adapt to your surroundings if you want to take good photos.  You never know when you’ll have the chance to high-five federal officers while on a bicycle (which actually happened), or when the BBC puts an enormous camera right in from of you blocking your view (which also happened).  You just have to roll with the punches.

Phil is... not to be trusted. In fact he's holding me hostage right now. Oh god... I think I hear him coming... OH SHI...
