This seems a pretty slow strategy for a speed run.

They paused the timer too, can someone with some knowledge explain why they did that? Like did he forget to do something or what?

they didn't make enough money off metroid so they're waiting for the donations to rise a bit more.

Huh. I was thinking it softlocked, but I wonder if something went wrong in the room that we couldn't see on stream.

It's really great that of all the pedantic explaining that went on this run, a timer stopping run pause is ignored by the runner and everyone on the couch.

i assume they're pausing the run because the stream is lagging for everyone and we just can't hear the instructions comin through the headset

If you look closely, the stream is actually having issues, its nothing with the game

I'd think if the controller was dieing then they'd say something. I guess Miles has control over the timer so he can pause it, but this is weird.

so they're pausing the run for minutes at a time because the twitch stream is crapping out?

I thought that was just how Twitch normally worked.

Maybe they're losing the capture computer? It would explain that they'd ask Miles to stop the run.

Yes. Without saying anything about it. Not sure if this is a good strategy to not bring light to it so whoever's loving around will stop.
