The Alphamarathon, like all great things, was something I invented and championed. The idea is simple: you have one (1) year to submit a new review for each letter of the alphabet and also #, which nobody likes. Here is a list of people who have previously managed this great feat:
EmP. Joe. Masters. Overdrive. Suskie. aschultz.
Only the first two have completed it more than once. That probably says a lot.
Here are the rules:
1. Skip articles like "a" or "the" in regards to title. For example, The Adventures of Lolo would fall under A, and A Girls Fabric Face falls under G.
2. Only reviews submitted at this website in 2022 count. No offsite reviews, no linking to older reviews.
3. Reposted reviews do not count unless they were significantly overhauled. Your old GameFAQs reviews, for instance, only count if you significantly reworked them. You can also delete your older reviews here, vastly rewrite them and resub them.
4. Only reviews linked in this article count toward you final score. No one is going to go through your list of submitted reviews and update your post here for you, so you'll need to maintain it yourself.
5. If a title starts with a non-alphabetic or non-numeric character, then file it under the first alphabetic or numeric character that appears in name. For instance, .hack Part 3: Outbreak would count as an H game.
Winner: Joe: 27
Collapsed half a mile from the start line: EmP: 3

For us. For them. For you.
