I guess I'll vent my feelings about the AGDQ Chat thread since it came up and I'm still bitter about it.

I posted in that thread ever since its inception. I don't mesh as well with many of the people there but it was still a riot when a fun run got going. Just lots of dumb fun making stupid jokes and laughing at games in a casual environment. It was nice because we didn't have to worry about every post having "value"; kind of like these threads. We got our dumb poo poo post thread and the serious thread was much more readable as a result.

I dunno when the whole fanart spam thing started; wasn't really a fan of it. Don't mind the occasional picture being posted but people really spammed that poo poo. I actually voiced my disappointment with that but people mostly seemed in favor of just letting people have their fun. The horny posting was weird though; I never understood it, but I don't understand a lot of things about casual chat because I'm an antisocial idiot. So I just did my best to ignore it. I did report the blatant porn pictures I saw because that was just gross but you gotta understand with how fast the thread moved I didn't even see most of them. Plus when the thread got really spammy with pics I often bowed out to just watch the run or work on art or something.

If the thread had been reopened but without fanart I bet it would of been fine. Instead it stayed closed during my favorite part of the event. That really bummed me out. I don't disagree with many of the probations but acting like the thread had no value is just rude. It was still really fun for a lot of people that had nothing to do with horny spam or whatever. Overall its loss has made this AGDQ a lot less enjoyable for me. They are usually one of the few times I really enjoy being on this dead internet forum.

So yeah, I'm still sad about it. Something did need to be done but I don't think it was fair to ban a new thread from being made. I just wanted to shitpost about runs and make stupid gifs.

There seems to be an active, non-locked AGDQ thread right now. Presumably mods changed their minds on getting rid of it all together but decided banishing the old thread was still worth it.

The Games Done Quick thread actually appears to be reopened again?

I’ve never watched Games Done Quick before and am not really familiar with it. Which is surprising for me because if there’s one thing I like doing it’s finding opportunities to poo poo post because that’s all I do here.

I feel like we're at the edge of finding out that the biggest/only reason Anthony Burch was hired by Randy in the first place was for him to be closer to Ashly Burch and creating a character just for her was in fact a mandate by him.

I think it started last SGDQ. It seemed like there was a competition each game for who could find the weirdest/grossest fanart to post. I didn't really have time to keep up with either that one or this AGDQ so I dunno how bad it got but I guess they finally pushed it too far.

Are you all ready for some amazing adequate sketches? With Axelblaze's contest as a good motivator, I decided to make this New Year Resolution to start drawing different games daily, as well as without a reference (that was not a smart idea as you are all to see). All the games I drew were ones that I've played and beaten in 2018. Also, I didn't realize the deadline was before January 12 and not on Jan 12 so uh hopefully I can finish these rough drafts (from Jan 10-11) fast enough but I'm kinda drunk so whoooooooooooooops take your pick on what you like best I guess (the deltarune page was the funnest to sketch for me) :V

I'm just gonna hid the shittier pics behind url links
Jan 1 - Iconoclasts (lovely redraw I was attempting to do of pic I posted last thread)
Jan 2 - Enter the Gungeon
Jan 3 - Dota 2
Jan 4 - Deltarune

Jan 5 - Indie Games
Jan 6 - More Indie Games

Jan 7 - Smash Bros I guess?!? I blame Jury Duty :T
Jan 8 - Anarcute (guess what press conference I was watching)

Jan 9 - A Hat in Time

there have been two threads for a couple years now, one for serious slow posting about cool runs and technical stuff and one for rapid fire liveposting. it seems like people are just using the remaining thread as a chat thread now which kinda sucks

the liveposting works better as a discord room and people really should not have posted splatoon porn but calling it one of the worst threads ever and threatening to ban anyone who opens a replacement is laughably stupid

before we went to two threads though, the thread used to be like the way it is now, so it's not a huge change, it's just less emptyquoting

i like the shitpost thread too but it did start to get as spammy as Twitch chat and being like Twitch chat should never be the objective

i'm ace tho so like, i have no feelings about all the fanart except that irony gives way to reality way too easily these days, and maybe was always the case

Ok this is as good as it before it reaches Jan 12th so here's my last minute contest entry for Axelblaze. I couldn't chose a favorite game so I just drew a pic with a bunch of my favorite game characters of all the games I played this year (this time with picture references!).

Are you talking about actual, legit child pornography in goldmined threads, or drawings of fictional children having sex? Both are skeevy, but one is much, much worse than the other.
