What is it? Writers carry the torch by writing continuously in one hour legs, and passing it off to other writers. We will be passing the torch throughout the weekend. Can we carry the torch for 20 hours? 48 hours? Can we survive even longer?
Where will it happen? In a dedicated RAWR Torch Relay channel on Discord.
McGee’s Torch Rules:
- The torch bearer must write for a full hour (bathroom breaks only).
- Use a fire emoji/picture to pass off and accept the torch.
- Both must post within five minutes of each other, or the torch drops.
- If the torch is dropped, the entire marathon starts over.
- There is no passing off the torch in the middle of an hour.
- After each leg, post your total total words written.
McGee’s Torch Tips:
- If you cannot pass the torch, you may choose to carry it for another hour.
- It’s okay to carry the torch for multiple legs, including consecutive legs.
- It helps to arrange for backup people when planning your leg of the relay.
- Flexibility is key, Fun outweighs adhering to the original schedule.
Please join Discord and sign up for your shifts by October 15th!
