Dear Reader:
Zelda marathon coordinator, Cameron Banga interviewed
A portion of an Infendo interview with Cameron Banga…
JB: First I’d like to congratulate you and your team on the amazing 1200$ charity collection. Did you ever expect all the support that came from doing a weekend long speed run?
CB: Definitely never expected nearly the amount of support we received that weekend. I’ve been around the internet long enough to understand that everyone is a cynic and expected some pretty harsh responses to our quest. But after 7000 e-mails in the 48 hours, 99.9% of which were extremely positive, we definitely felt like we did something people truly enjoyed.
JB: To give credit where it is due, who all participated in the event?
CB: We have a pretty large team all-in-all. We have 11 people on staff in total. Some guys focus on selecting the games we will play, others work reading e-mails, we also have a couple who just offer moral support and stay up late each night. However, each person is a pretty integral part of our success. The entire team consists of Michael Boersma, Dillon Carter, Matt Green, Natalie Nhok, Tom Platte, Will Scheller, Adam Shull, Dean Siemon, Mike Stecyk, Chris Vavra, and myself.
