I miss the older marathons. Everything was in person, which I feel had better energy. And the runs were simpler. I don’t really like 4-way races, or controller passing whatever. It’s all a gimmick as far as I’m concerned. I like paying attention to the games and how skilled the runners are.
I love it. My only “complaint” is that junctioning discourages using the magic. But that’s fine. I’ll just hit em with my awesome sword that just so happens to also be a gun.
