flatluigi posted:A panel watches a bunch of vods and highlight videos that people submit to them and then judges based on what seems like would be well-presented and appealing to watch. The actual selection process hasn't been made publicized because it's probably not by any hard and fast rubric and nerds would rules lawyer the poo poo out of it all, but by what generally makes it in it seems like they do want to prioritize games that haven't been seen at the marathons recently (if ever) and well-recognized game series are sought-after to try to get newer viewers to watch and donate. Unless the OP is lying to me and the runners are paid for, I assume it is heavily based on who can fly out to wherever they are.

If you want to watch something that isn't Squeak Squad, Pinball Done Quick is up and running.

I mean yeah they're not going to accept people if they can't get to the event but that still leaves a lot of runs to cut down. The submissions for this year had 190 hours of runs for the week-long event, 7 and a half extra hours of bonus donation incentive runs, 279 hours of waitlisted runs in case the accepted ones get canceled, and 1,509 hours of runs that were rejected.

I assume Rainbow Curse is a bad speedrun game seeing as how it didn't show up in SGDQ nor AGDQ

They should make not having Fire Emblem next year a donation incentive and see how much they make

Also note that the Fire Emblem they picked is the (first) one with Ike in it Smash Bros bias confirmed

fire emblem is bad diddy kong racing is good as long as the run is short, and this is mercifully much shorter than last years if I recall correctly

goldjas posted:Fire Emblem apparently brings in mad donations so that's why they always have one. I personally don't know how true that actually is but it's the reasoning. Not really. The Radiant Dawn run at AGDQ 2015 actually flattened out the donation curve a bit and the stream lost about 40% of viewers during it. (It did start at midnight and run four hours, though... )

Because Radiant Dawn is the inferior version of Path of Radiance. Also loving this Wizpig music. Do i take a shot at the mention of a cancer survivor instead of my X died to cancer?
