I can't stress enough how good the DYE run is. It is a really hard game that TGH makes look really easy.

I'm really enjoying this Rayman run (surprisingly, I gotta admit), but that little cackle at the end of each level drives me nuts

I'm legit happy for these nerds playing Rayman. If they're excited I'm excited!

Just goes to show how important good runner and commentary are because I wouldn't give a poo poo about Rayman otherwise

Since there's a lull currently, I'm going to enlist the thread for a bit of help. I'm working on an A Link to the Past Randomizer glossary. If you're familiar with Rando and you want to help provide some term definitions, use the contact form on this site. http://randoguide.com

I've got a list of about 36 more terms I want to define before the run on Saturday

I thought they were just gonna play a randomized ALttP, I didn't know we had to study a glossary to understand it :monocle:

What are you missing definitions for? Since I commentated a good number of runs in the tournament and before I'd be glad to help out if I can, but I'm too lazy to look through everything you've already got and figure out what you might be missing :v:

lol, hopefully you won't! I trust that the commentators will do a good job explaining terms. This is just to help fill in the blanks, especially for people who enjoy the run so much that they want to watch more after AGDQ ends.

Catfish
Stun Pack/Prize Pack
Tree Pull

I'm a bit confused here. You get bonus point icons and then they give you bonus points? These mechanics are just too tough to grasp.

the "if x was y, would you call it z?" format of pun is generally weak, and those were certainly no exception to that. 3/10, you tried.
