New sched- 8pm-8pm tomorrow :D

I hope to be as badass awesome as you one day! I struggle to hustle for 4 hours at a time, and you're killing it for 24! Sure there are breaks, but that's fucking amazing.

I think I may be able to survive it with a group of girls. But if I was by myself I would fall asleep!
I think it would be really fun to get 3-4 girls to do one at the same time. :)

Hi ladies :) I'll be joining in on this tomorrow, I would say from 4pm - 4am with a break every 4 hours for food/a nap if need be lol I'm planning on 12 hours but if feel up to it I'll be camming even longer, say 18-20 hours! I've never done a cam marathon this long (longest I've done is like 8-10 in a day), but I'm hoping for at least $300-400. If this goes well I'll be doing it once a week 3 times a month, I'm trying to get my income up because I'm moving in July. Good luck everyone! ^_^

Off break and going on for another 4 hours. Four hours down, 16 more to go O.o I hope I don't go completely insane.

Keep in mind that there is a Basketball playoff game tonight, so if anyone is doing a camathon, plan on taking that time off to refresh.
Then hit the guys who come in after the game.

Good to know about the sports...I can blame that for the slow periods :) I'm trying to log 10 or so hours today...that's my mini cam-a-thon!

I think I'm officially a zombie. It's hour 12 and I'm at that brick wall where you feel you can't go any further. I skipped 2 breaks as I had a 3 hour straight pvt with a new guy...Zzzzzzzz *wakes up* I'm gonna rest for 2 hours and get back on. I think I'm making pretty good time. I'm at about $600 so I think the $900 is totally possible by 8PM. I just hope I wake back up if I take this 2 hour nap haha.

Staples

I set 4 alarms all around my bedroom at 5 minute intervals so I have to keep gettin up to turn them off. By the time the fourth one goes off I'm ready to just stay up lol.

^^ Sophie, I'm positive he was a drug addict in which 3 hours is a regular 10 min show to every other guy, lol. He was grinding his teeth, had deep impressions in his bottom lip, was smoking 3-4 joints the entire time but I can tell her was either an ex drug addict or he was still on it. He couldn't even keep his dick hard, haha.

Anyway, I ended up clumping all my breaks into one big ass nap and now I'm feeling tired but a little less exhausted and I'm ready to get back on and work until 8pm. :D

SophieL
05-03-2014, 12:46 PM
Still...cha-ching:)I bet you are exhausted.I did 10:30P-3am last night and have been on today am since 10am.On quick break now. Need $190 to make $1500 this week. You keep rocking.

I'm actually quite alert and still awake. That 5 hour nap hurt my earnings by $200 but still refreshed me a bit. I'm at slightly less than $700 right now which isn't what I wanted, but not bad. I'm still doing phone sex and texting until I'm at exactly $700 and then I'll head to bed. I'll dodge camming tomorrow and just text and phone bone until I make my goal this week. I should be at $1,200.00 tomorrow which will conclude my week. I made the $700 from my cam-a-thon in 16 hours. Not great, but it's $700 I didn't have and my hourly did go up almost $10.

SophieL
05-03-2014, 11:49 PM
I ended up at just short of $500 and called it at SM end of day. Put me $15 short of $1500 for the week. I am pleased as my best showing ever.:) Did around 12 hours nearly straight yesterday. I don't txt, phone or many cam so really need to look into that. You ladies keep inspiring me.

Staples
05-03-2014, 11:58 PM
You know what though Kort... That's $43 bucks an hour for 16 hours. There are few jobs in the world today that would pay you that much so good job!!!!

Congratulations to everyone that did awesome!!! You are all so inspiring, especially you ladies that keep hitting 1k+ a week. I'm really trying to get into you guys' league ASAP, because I need to start saving to move.

I had to move my cam a thon to today, yesterday I had a bit of an existential crisis so I had to take an extra mental health day. I started camming at like 3, couldn't even last 20 minutes because I had a major headache / nausea >.< I switched birth control pills last week so I've been dealing with side effects like crazy >.< so frustrating because it's hurting my earnings majorly. I'm on my food break right now, hoping things will be better when I log back on. Good luck to anyone else still trying for your marathons ^_^

You are so right, Staples. I just tend to be a bit hard on myself because if I have a bill that needs to be paid, making less fucks me over. Thankfully I only needed $700 anyway. I wanted $900 though so I could have a little more wiggle room but of course this is a new month with 5 fridays to follow. CHACHINNGGGG!

Anyway, I ended up with $975.11 instead of $1,200 like I thought but that's because my ass decided to sleep all day and only take calls for 2 hours before cut off, hehe. Overall the camathon was totally worth it but I think I'd rather hustle 40 hours a week and make sure no unexpected bills are due anytime soon. :D

Kort, I'm taking your lead and going for 600 tomorrow!

Staples

Going to do a cam-a-thon starting at 1:00 PM today and going until roughly 1:00 PM tomorrow. I'll be taking a 20 minute break every 3-4 hours along with a 2 hour break later this evening to cook dinner and do a quick photo shoot. I plan to focus mainly on Kink Live and Streamate (I'll split cam if my internet decides not to be a jackass) but I'll also have an ad up on CMD for skype shows and I'll be doing some work on Cam4 or chaturbate. I hope to get 18-20 hours of actual cam time in. I'm doing this because I have to be out of town this weekend for a graduation and I'll miss a lot of hours that are generally pretty good for me.

Hey guys I'm joining you today. I doubt I can do a whole 24 hours, but I'm aiming for 12. Not only today but the next 4 days. Let's do this!!

05-07-2014, 07:53 AM
Ok... the past two days have sucked so time to get my game face on here. The rest of the week it is ON.

I've done 12-16 hours. The only problem I see is that it makes members spend less. The point is that many men only spend when you're not going to be around for long. If they feel you'll be there they'll just sit and talk to you to death.

I wouldn't suggest doing this on token based sites but if it's a private only site? Go for it!

I used to do 12 hours on ifriends but again there was always one loser that wouldn't leave and try to talk me to death between privates.

Now I'd love to do something like this on AW or if my account was active on SM. MFC or Naked= Less money per hour for me or members holding out hoping someone else spends for what they want.

that is true, I'd just not tell the custies that the cam a thon is happening in the first place, I tend to make it look like I'm not going to be on very long even if I plan on being on a few hours anyway lol I know they are more likely to get a show if they think I'll be gone asap

Going on nearly 7 hrs this am so far...taking a break in a few. Have had upset stomach all night as well...ughh:(

I tried doing this once, but only lasted about 6 hours and got tired. Kudos to those of you who are doing it! I may try again to do this but I will take frequent breaks-I could use the money now that the weather is finally getting nice and I want to do fun things this summer. LOL :)

Smurfette
05-10-2014, 03:52 PM
Yeah last week when I said I was aiming for 12... I made it to 4. lol. I suck at camathons apparently.

I really dont think these mega shifts are a good idea. You will run out of energy and hustle and you'll end up making LESS than if you had cammed fewer hours and let yourself rest in between

But I get that you need money fast-if you are gonna try and work insane hours I recommend doing 4 hour shifts-YOU MUST TAKE BREAKS. 4 hours on, 2-4 hours rest, then repeat. I've done 12 hours in a day that way

good luck!!!!!!

For me they work out really good, my average goes up the more hours in a row I cam. And doing long camathons lets me hit my minimum # of hours per week much faster, so it feels like I get more time off too.


I'm gonna be camathoning Sat. and Sun. if anyone wants a camathon buddy PM me }:D :D

^ I'll join ya bb. Taking the weekend off and I'll be back with a vengeance. This time I'll stick just with SM and not bounce around, I think that is what hurt me before lol.

kortneykay
05-17-2014, 11:26 AM
I agree, Camathon's work well for me too money wise and it's probably because I have no real schedule and bounce around so I get day time custies and my night time ones who haven't seen me in days. Even though I made $700 the last one I don't see myself doing another one any time soon unless I'm in dire need. I'm at a place where I have more than enough time to work my regular 8-10 hour shifts. I will say that camming completely exhausts me so much that camathons I have to take multiple breaks in between as well as days off. I think I took 7 days off the last time because I was so tired and my sleep schedule was fucked. I do think it was worth that extra $700 though, hehe.

i'm really in the mood to earn a lot of money. im going to be doing 10 hours min a day 4 days a week. and if i havent made what i want in 4 days i will continue into the 5,6,7th day until i've made what i feel is enough. i dont have any specific number, i just want more than usual. im day is going to be, wake up, have 1 hr to get wakened, go on cam for 4 hours, log off for 4 hours when school ends, and feed, wash and bed the kids. back on cam for 6 hours minimum until i can't stay awake any more, im hoping for about 7hours, then sleep for 8 hours. rinse and repeat. and i am going to try REALLY hard not to give up when 1 of the days is really bad and I make only £10 in 10hours, because the next day I could make £200 for all I know. I just need to keep going and never give up. I'm only doing 4 days, because i need some days to do housework and chores and take care of my husband and stuff. but if i dont make enough in 4 days i am going to just leave the house 2 get a mess lol.

I have made $600+ this week so far and want to get to $1000

Ober late on rent, gas just got shut off, electric is due, car is over due, and so much other crap. The best way for me to pull myself out I think is a cam a thon but nothing serious like you gals I still have little mini me who breastfeeds and sleeps where I can. I can't get him to nap anywhere else but regardless I'll working on and off all day to try and make as much and work as much as possible. Anyone up for doing it again?

Bump! It's about that time ladies...for me anyway. We need to make an official camathon thread...I was about to but I decided to bring this one back to life. This one is going to be hard. I'm going for 15 hours, for 4 whole days, totaling 60 hours on came with 8 hours of sleep in between each day. Lord herp me! My minimum goal is $900 my max is $2100. In my camathon kit is water, cranberry flavored redbull, koolaid pouches, pringles, hard candy jolly ranchers, a veggie pack, my double sided tip sign for the beggars so I don't have to repeat myself, my black and white dildo. and weed :D

Great post hun. I love the idea of an official cam-a-thon thread...I like that you posted your essentials. I am reading this listening to "Till I Collapse" by Eminem, seemed appropriate to add to the cam-a-ton essentials - motivating music. Your pic just motivated me for some reason.

Going to do some cardio at the gym to get my energy up, shower, grab cam-a-thon kit and go at it fro the rest of today, tonight, tomorrow morning, afternoon and evening- then back to day job. I like listing your goals, keeps you accountable. I am going to make $500 before I go to work Monday morning. Thank you for kicking me in my tush and inspiring me. I need to get greedy for the rest of this month!!!!

Good luck babes!!!

Hmmm, gives me an idea for next month's contest...

Last BB Standing Camathon Challenge

We'll devote all commissions for the day to the last person to cut their feed. Rules will be 5-10 minute window for starting time, no voyeur shows, no more than 3 minute breaks, free chat/GS/paid privates only.

I'll have to think about this some more, but this could be fun. We could have a background chat set up for encouragement and other things.

What would be a good day to do this? on a Saturday?
