Cheers, OI!
This thread is serving as both a way to gauge interest and a heads up.
The basic idea is to make an OI Let's Play competition of sorts. The first series will be an on-going community playthrough of Red/Blue. Players will have 12 days to reach the goal posted in each OP (usually beating a gym leader) and write up their experiences. Be as detailed as you like, as this is your chance to share your personal adventures through this marvelous game. The Let's Plays for this event will be text-based, though snapshots of your progress are welcomed (but not mandatory) supplements to add some flavor to your tale.
After the 12 days to submit, there'll be a 2 day voting period where anyone can vote for their favorite tale. Then, it's back to playing/writing. Feel free to get ahead in the journey and start working on the next portion before it's due if that will help you make each deadline; just don't post it until the next thread is up, obviously. If this goes over well, there will be future Let's Play competitions of other games ^.^
So, the main question here is: who wants to play?
