MrLonghair posted:With the wording in the SGDQ threads it sounds like they're going to try for serious-mode all the time. (Professional silent conduct and discipline, presentation and production value, yeah) You have to realize that for events that get this large, setting ground rules like this is REALLY important or else things get really out of hand quickly. As someone who used to go to fighting game events quite often, I can safely say that setting and following rules like this really improves the quality of the event a lot.

I remember one of the first marathons, whichever one had to be moved to... what, Uyama's place because of some nonsense with the venue they had? Pizza arrived when Breakdown started LoZ1 and he was super bummed about having to wait to eat, it was kind of hilarious. Dude just wanted a slice! I really liked that marathon. It was smaller, and I guess that made it feel really chill.

It was mentioned earlier, but Joshimuz' ESA run for GTA: San Andreas was fantastic. Other than being a WR, it was also just has some great detail and explanation. It's honestly not very indicative of his normal streams which I don't particularly love.

Never seen so much smiling, laughing and cheering in a speedrun marathon before. Not the reason I watch them but it's the ice-cream of the sweet crunchy cone and I love that waffly cone material a lot. What a feel-good time it was.

Very simple and inaccurate explanation: you pick up an egg that has a null sprite value (from one of the mouses that holds an egg), and you can have it take the value of whatever sprite works out to it's sprite ID (don't know how exactly). Sprite of choice here is the keyhole, which ends the level. Yoshi has to catch up with the keyhole after you spawn (by running right until the keyhole is against the edge, I guess?) it to end the level.

If it's real the guy obviously wanted to donate to Cosmo specifically for some reason. Who knows if he ever would have donated to the charity at all.. Does Twitch have a chat log? Because I need to see the chat log of all this when it went down. Shimrra Jamaane fucked around with this message at 06:43 on Jul 23, 2013 |

This guy is unbelievably crass, as well as unknowledgeable, for someone who donated ten thousand dollars to Cosmo. Also, the ten grand is, according to him, his workman's comp. So I'm a little suspicious.

Kittle posted:So Cosmo just got $10k from a guy and is now skyping with him on stream I think hes legit. The way hes being so public about his information is already risky for him, and if those checks bounce then hes going to get a ton of backlash. Hes even accepting all the friend requests on the facebook he linked. So it isn't like its not his facebook. His reason for those who haven't been watching: He is a firefighter who was recently injured on the job. Watching Cosmo in the hospital really helped him through it, and in return he gave Cosmo the workers compensation money he got. E: Ehh, I don't know, I can see it going either way, the guy doesn't sound like the kind of person who would do this, and someone in the chat mentioned that according to his Facebook it's his dad whose a firefighter. it is definitely really sketchy. I guess we'll find out in a couple days. Bastard Man fucked around with this message at 08:11 on Jul 23, 2013 |

I'm listening to this guy right now, its amazing how ignorant he is of speedrunning. Cosmo did a zombie zombie hover and the guy was just completely blown away by it. He was also asking Cosmo if he does lets plays. It just seem a bit odd for someone who was supposedly helped through recovery by Cosmo to not really know anything about what he does.

According to Cosmo on Twitter it looks like some of the money already got taken back. I am completely unsurprised such an obnoxious guy who knew literally nothing about Cosmo or what he does probably isn't actually giving him $10k. But I do still feel bad for Cosmo and him getting his hopes up

If it's any solace, Cosmo doesn't seem too broken up about it, and is one of the chillest streamers there is so he'll be fine.

I'm pretty sure Cosmo is well at the point now of not believing any promises of money until it is physically there. He gets plenty of promises in chat too that he never buys until it shows up. Nice thing though, is it did start some other donations that same night, so he still made some good money without that. Now Adrian, on the other hand, is liable to kill somebody.

http://www.twitch.tv/ludendi Bonus stream evolved into pirate-stream, straight out of a storage chamber in the building. No records being made but they are doing a low-curse% run of Sonic 2006. e: With that over, and my loaned out equipment back (dxtr is a great guy!); If you have any feedback or commentary, criticism about the audio during ESA2013 good or bad, gimme in PM or post, I'm going over my notes from various forums and chats and preparing a thread about it for our secret ESA planning forum. Next time around the crowd audio will be more "living" and the sound will never dip and go away after people go loud again, and I will be attending and keeping watch on mic batteries and volumes.

Poor TMR, dudes on Klax for his 30 hardest games thing, didn't hit start fast enough when he game overed and had to start over. He was at wave 71, thankfully there's a warp which he used, but he's stuck on 60 now.
