Yup. Speaking of copyright, Shinobi also fought Godzilla and now he's fighting Mecha-Godzilla.

Didn't you managed to get yourself banned from the irc during another *gdq for being a shithead in the past?

I remember there was a self-destruct ninjitsu that actually took up lives and I can't remember what it was used for?

Not a walrus.
Just a quick thing about "closer on estimates", it's intentional in that the estimates DO NOT include the setup buffers this time around. Most games already have about 10 minutes factored in between games for untimed stuff and general setup, which is NOT shown on stream (but is used in the schedule) but for various reasons it hasn't been sufficient.

We've had way too many 'oh god something is broken and it's taking 20+ minutes to fix it' moments.

Also slotting in Kid Chameleon when I really shouldn't have. :ohdear:

yeah but i toned it down a lot this year and i'm not sure why poking fun at the runner's physical appearance got me banned this time. if i was banned for what i was doing last year i guess i can understand but otherwise i don't get it

Random Stranger posted:

Also, the runners have been much closer to estimate than they have been in the past. The vast majority of runners in years past finished about 20% ahead of estimate to allow for problems. Now it's people finishing almost exactly on estimate.

You keep saying this like it's the runners being bad, but in previous years the runners had to include setup time for their games in their estimates.

They are the same person. She's a professional cartoon artist. If you listen to the podcast The F Plus you'd know her as Portaxx.

She has a very... particular voice.

I didn't mean it that way. I figured that people were just cutting their estimates finer than they used to, but it's just the separation of the setup time.

Always throws me off that there's a retro game speedrunner called Dexter since that's my nickname for another retro game speedrunner, Omnigamer.
