FESTIVE PEOPLE!

Cause when the schedule was finalized the game wasn't yet out. Unknown why they didn't agree on a seed but doing unseeded runs was what they were comfortable with (there's a surprisingly large group that do runs like that, even for money) so I guess they didn't want to diverge.

One guy on couch said if they used the same seed then the guy behind could cheat by screen watching. Which is true but youd hope they could be trusted not to do that in a charity marathon eh.

I just turned on the stream again and recognized Werster from his jacket and stature alone.

PLEASE LEAVE
I always feel like an rear end in a top hat because I've never liked Naegleria much. He's just comes off as incredibly abrasive to me and incredibly smarmy during the Mario Party stuff during the bonus stream.

They do, but normally it's a best of three and the runs don't go as far. Also they tend to do a lot of restarts for a solid start which Slack refused to do because it'd be "boring" :v:

Basically Isaac races are probably not a good fit for GDQ. It'd be like a two-hour block for two people to play the same four flours multiple times.

I found him abrasive last *GDQ, but I actually enjoyed his commentary during F-Zero block

I remember the one Sonic 1 run at I think an SGDQ where he totally botched it and said "gently caress it" and started doing silly tricks which was kinda fun.

I can see that, but he's really cool when they are playing a game he likes.

That said, Naegleria and Werster have historically not liked each other, so it's interesting to see them share the couch.

Here's a truth bomb on Genesis vs. SNES music: first-party stuff and big third-party stuff (Capcom, Konami, Square) had great music on both platforms, most of the other stuff kind of sucked!

Also who were the brothers that did a co-op run of Sonic 2 one year and argued the whole time? That was a great run.

Edit: Also Naegleria is funny sometimes (usually when he's running something by himself) and can be annoying and awful sometimes (his commentary on the Barkley run).

I'm pretty sure TimpZ is okay with Werster's heckling. It's not like he just walked up to the couch and started talking poo poo out of nowhere.
