The moral of the story is that you don't need to go for world record in everything you do, and you can in fact go back for some safety strats, especially when you're on such a prominent stage.

DoctorWhat posted:question: are they just banned from "representing gdq" or are they banned from the premises? tbh it’s probably officially a run ban and GDQ hopes it’ll be a “we won’t ban them from attending as long as they don’t try to show up” kind of situation

DoctorWhat posted:question: are they just banned from "representing gdq" or are they banned from the premises? Being visible on stream at all counts as "representing GDQ". I mean, it ain't like GDQ is legally allowed to bar them from showing up to the hotel.

Glad that GDQ manned up and took care of it. Still concerning that they tried to bury the issue, but as long as the community keeps pressure on them we can force them to change.

A successful goon project that we can put on the shelf along with getting reddit to ban the pedos. Ban all Nazis from everything imo.

Between this and the manafort trap today, this has been an extremely satisfying day for seeing chuds self-destruct. Now like, PJ or mecharichter or someone else really cool will milkshake duck themselves because we live in the hell dimension. lol hell yeah

yeah there we go it just took like 3 hours extra Idk, I've seen worse response times. I am completely bewildered by the initial, swift dismissal though. They don't normally tweet about this stuff at all. Why address that one so quickly? not gonna lie though I was operating under the assumption GDQ/speedrunners at large didn't give a poo poo at all, The Elite is a public forum and that poo poo is just plastered all over that loving place. It's not that hard to find. Better late than never, I suppose.

I'm interested to know what happened with KevinDDR? Only screenshot I saw was him talking about himself being fat, nothing offensive. Did I miss something?

KevinDDR is a friend of mine and from my understanding that is pretty much the only participation in that mess they had was the posted line; they also tweeted directly at gdq about how they handled it https://twitter.com/KevinDDR/status/1067617495014563840

I was made party to information about Kevin's involvement and let's just say he's a stand-up dude who went above and beyond behind-the-scenes all the way through this situation at not insignificant risk.
