My favourite thing about this speedrun is the guy behind them being completely confused by what’s going on.

How the heck does he just look at it for 5 seconds and go "This is New Zealand"!?

This seems extremely hard and they are crazy good.

i played a bunch of geoguessr years ago and after playing it for a while you kinda get a sense for it

I can't believe Canada was the hardest of them all.

But it is a big country, so

That was a great run

I'd still say we would have a good chance of naming a FFIX character like Quina, if we just concentrate a few donations on it.

I'm willing to chip in.

This isn’t why ESA is so good. Things that may not normally get the spotlight get to shine like the stars they are.

I wouldn’t be against this. Running a bit low on money, but it is a good cause. What should we go with?

That was definitely an "only at ESA" kind of run and that's why regional representation in speedrunning is good thanks for watching

Oh, figures I miss out on my one donation by going to the bathroom.

That's great though. Hopefully we get the name, and if not, it's all for charity.

And IIRC Quina is actually used in the run as well so we'll see him/her/it doing stuff.

e: I wish they'd update the bids page for the option to actually appear.

I'm tuning into stream 2 for now, they're gonna play Ristar there soon.

So my first donation went in as Anonymous, ok, I should read the form more closely. The second uses my full name, which is, uh, a lot. I am not a fan of the donation form, even if I'm dumb.
