I know it would be toxic if this were an actual category, but I still want to give it a shot. Trouble is, I don't know where to begin.

Should I just try and line up the dates for bugs/fish/events, and try and pick the shortest length that connects them all? Are there other timing's I should be considerate of? (Also, for my own sanity, I'd probably set date/time to the desired date/time once, before town creation, that way I don't have to wait upwards of year to start)

Also, are there any dates that might be problematic if I were to start out on? (Since day 1 would likely be quite limited by my tools / bells)

Also, how should I go about recording something like this? I don't exactly have multiple-months of video-storage. Would simply recording whenever I am actually not in the start-screen be sufficient? I know this isn't a real category, but at the same time, I don't want to just post a number online somewhere, and have it just be scouts-honor that it's real.

Hmm... That would lead to some issues with finding a place to upload a video to. I calculated it... At 480p, the video file would be somewhere in the ballpark of 5.8TB. I don't think youtube would approve. Guess that ends the run prematurely. :(

So, I went ahead and calculated the shortest route, minus event-items; 186-190 days (Starting in late May, going on until early December [which is a close tie with Feb-Sept]). Using H.264 encoding, I can specify a bitrate independent of the resolution. The bare minimum that would be useful would be a bitrate of 320kbps, which, for this route, would have a file size of about 650GB... still monstrous, but maybe not impossible. I'd need to buy an extra hard drive though. Then the issue of file-sharing... I could either pay $10/month for google drive, and just upload the file that way, or, I could create a torrent file for it. Either way would be pretty non-conventional for video-proof. The only other major hurdle would be how to keep a gamecube from catching fire for over half a year of continuous use.
