Marble Race Game – Terms of Participation & Privacy Notice
1. Participation & Consent
By entering the game via the !q chat command, you voluntarily choose to participate in the marble game livestream found on LiveChatGaming’s YouTube and Twitch channel. Participation is optional.
2. Beta Disclaimer
This game is currently in beta testing. As such, it may contain bugs, errors, crashes, or other unintended behavior, which may cause interruptions, loss of progress, or unexpected results. By participating, you acknowledge and accept that the game is provided “as is” without any guarantees of availability or functionality.
This document is intended to describe what is intended to happen with the game; however, actual functionality may vary due to the experimental nature of the beta.
3. Information Displayed Publicly
If you join, your display name and profile picture (as provided by YouTube or Twitch) will be publicly shown within the livestream.
4. Information Collected & Stored
We collect and temporarily store the following information for participants:
- Platform user ID (a unique identifier provided by YouTube or Twitch)
- Display name (as shown on YouTube or Twitch)
- Game data (race performance, leaderboard results, participation history)
5. Purpose of Data Collection
Your data is collected and used solely to enable in-game functionality and leaderboard tracking during the livestream game.
This includes displaying your public username and profile picture as part of your in-game marble and leaderboard results.
Footage of gameplay — including publicly visible elements such as marbles, usernames, and leaderboard standings — may be used in promotional or advertising materials (for example, in livestream highlights, social media posts, or videos showcasing the game).
6. Data Deletion
Participants can delete their data by typing !forgetme in the live chat. This can only be done while the livestream is live and active.
Important Note: Deleting your data removes it from the database and leaderboard display, but it does not remove your marble or its prior participation from the livestream broadcast or recordings that have already taken place.
7. Age Requirement
This game is intended for audiences 13+. If you are under 13, please do not participate.
8. Liability
By participating, you understand that your chosen display name and profile image (from YouTube or Twitch) will be visible to all livestream viewers.

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued participation in the game indicates your acceptance of any changes.

How to Join a Marble Race
1. Queuing Up
To join a race, type !q in the live chat of a marble race stream on the LiveChatGaming YouTube or Twitch channel.
Each race can include up to 100 players at once. If the race is already full, you’ll be placed in the next available one.
2. Choosing a Color
You can choose between 8 colors: pink, red, orange, green, cyan, blue, and purple.
For example, if you want to join as a purple marble, you will need to type and enter !q purple exactly in the chat.
Any other combination of characters including !q will give your marble a random color.
Attempting to queue as a different color before your marble races will not change the previous color you did or did not choose.
3. One Queue at a Time
You can only be queued for one race at a time.
After your marble enters a race and the starting gate opens, you’ll be free to queue again by typing !q.
This ensures everyone gets a fair chance to participate.
4. Confirming Your Entry
When you successfully queue, your YouTube or Twitch display name may briefly appear in the messages feed shown on the stream.
Your name will also appear when your marble officially joins the race.
Because messages appear quickly, your confirmation message may get pushed out of view. This problem will likely be fixed in the future, but for now pay attention to when you queued for a race and when your marble joins a race.
