This is probably one of the best holiday-themed ideas I’ve seen. Everyone on the Triple Speed Runners is gifting each other the games they’ll be playing for their marathon. Maybe something good? Maybe something bad? You’ll have to tune in and see!

Other: Everyone will be playing three different games this marathon. But here’s the catch, we don’t get to pick our own games.
1st game: Everyone in TSR drew a name out of a hat. Whatever name that was drawn, you had to pick a game for them to play. In the first drawing, we told everyone what name we got. We also told that person what game they will be playing so they can practice it.
2nd game: For the second drawing, we drew names out again, but this time it was for a secret person. Everyone has one secret person and it’s a secret to everyone. We pick out a random game for that person and bring it to the marathon. The person playing the game will not know what the game is until right before they play it. It could be one of the worst games ever made, it could be an awesome game, who knows? All of the secret games will be wrapped up like a present and will be labeled “To: whoever” from their Secret Santa.
3rd game: Everyone brings a random game and wraps it so nobody knows what it is. All random games will go into a pile and we will have to take our chances at picking out one present from the pile. Whatever game we pick, we have to play it after unwrapping it. We are not allowed to pick our own present.
