I feel like maybe the tag team element wasn't the best idea, they probably could've had one guy beat this by brute force instead of 4 guys losing their laser-sighted focus by switching in and out

I think that was the point.

I had a beer once with Stephen Miller and now I like him.

I also tried to ban someone from a Discord for pointing out what an unrelenting shithead I am! I'm even dumb enough to think it worked!
Man cheesey really isn't going after this level right.

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.

The issue is if you give each guy 2 levels he might get ones that aren't his strong suit and an otherwise strong team gets totally eliminated from the get-go because one player gets one bad level.

This is the best option for a fair race.

So I think I'm going to learn that Strider speedrun from this morning since they said it was easy and anyone could pick it up fast. Let's see if I can do it before Team Cheezy finishes.

Man, if they are going to do the run on this the way they it now for next year, loving have something to do after the other team is done obliterating them.

This is boring.

Kill this before everyone gets bored and bounces. There's still a lot of awesome Mario to be played in the next 2 hours.

*GDQ keeps doing this, having a walk of shame after the race is over. No energy, pretty awkward, probably frustrating to the person left playing :(

I think that was based on the race being relatively tight, not a total blowout. Now it's :effort: from the crowd watching the same mistakes.

e: 2 levels left, yea I guess they'll let them walk of shame into the finish.
