I wish the schedule on gamesdonequick.com had a button you could click to like immediately snap down to the closest run in the schedule closest run to your detected time zone

or like show different background coloring on completed speedruns vs upcoming/inprogress ones. Always takes me a minute to figure out were the gently caress to go in it to see what's coming up next.

It's probably not actually the speedrun watching community, but the people who come in from the Twitch frontpage that are the hyper-toxic parts (mostly.)

Yeah, I think I said earlier in the week that I don't understand why they block things the way they do. Why have hours of almost identical games? Tetris is an alarming freak that only shows we are unworthy of our alien masters. It can handle hours of the same thing happening, other games just don't have the purity of gameplay. They are not of the uberspiel, as it were.

Every year there's a trans woman on the couch and even with moderators and autobans they can't stop the stream of toxic sludge

I really don't see the point of chat besides being a way to get stupid kids to donate five bucks for emotes. Well-adjusted people won't use it because it's too populated to hold a conversation, so it's just a vehicle for memes and abuse.

Even the discord, which isn't as populated and has way more mods and mod tools, has plenty of toxicity. I was in there the first few days just to see how it flowed and more than a few times kids with names like "bitchnigga" or "gasthejews####" would join and act completely oblivious to why the mods force changed their names (which I didn't know you could do).

Then they'd just spam racist memes since there was no reason to keep up the facade if they couldn't try and "trigger" people with their edgy names.

Ok I didn't know you actually get the forms like in ZX in this, I just quit after the first 3 bosses since I figured the gimmick was you just transform into the bosses which was useless.
