GMC is EXTREMELY hard on the cart and system, he's commented on how hot the cart gets when doing the glitch. A while into the week, he started loading up another game to make sure the snes ram was cleared up. One of these games was drakken, and that cart's saves were mysteriously wiped when inserted after a GMC attempt. Several times the game crashes so badly that it switches resolutions to an output that his ossc can't hold sync on.

It was a really fun couple of days, I ended up watching all of them live and the hype when he finally got the glitch was ridiculous. Probably my favorite thing I've watched on twitch.

I was gonna go get food, but I decided to stick around for one more run and that was the run he got it. A good choice!

Actually aren't there some Game Boy speedruns that rely entirely on hotswapping games while the console is powered on? I remember that being a thing.

This part reminds me of one of my favorite RPGLB runs, in 2016, when the Drakkhen cart just decided to die mid run. Dragondarch had to get a new copy and they were able to finish the run on stream later.

At the end of omnigamer's talk he mentioned that the Dragon View bug was so bad that it started to try to actually write things into the game's rom. It's absolutely a bug that never would've made it to printing if it weren't far enough outside of regular play patterns. But then again, PJ playing a game is so far beyond of regular play that it's not surprising at all anymore.

It's a uk specific thing where that charity is being targetted and might potentially lose a fairly sizeable grant because of chuds.

IIRC the lore is that Mermaids is a charity organization that helps trans youths. Robert Webb from Peep Show made a Tweet talking poo poo about them (which made no sense if, like me, you had no idea what Mermaids was at the time. It sounded like he was mad at the fictional monster), Graham Linehan made some Tweet (now deleted) where he pretended to be his assistant talking about how stoked Graham was that Webb was backing him up (lol), and it all sort of took off from there.

Graham Linehan is the guy who made funny shows like Father Ted and IT Crowd and less funny shows Black Books and the one about the old guy that came out a few years ago and sucked rear end. He's one of these really performatively woke liberal guys on Twitter, but he's a giant TERF for some reason. He's also really anti-Corbyn. He honestly seems like kind of dipshit.

Peep Show is a godtier show and it's really going to bum me out if David Mitchell gets involved in this mess.

An easy way to sum this up if you're not familiar with this weird resurgence: you know how a lot of liberal moms in America suddenly got all "well we don't need vaccines" in the past decade and change? In the UK, their anti-vax crowd was a really weird strain of gently caress TRANS PEOPLE. It's a belief a lot of folks you'd expect to know better will proudly trumpet "because science".

the highest rate of vaccination for any of the schools in the city i live in that's full of yuppies and neo-liberals driving teslas is 84%, well below herd immunity levels

the lowest is 42%

e: Also mermaids is literally a children's charity that mostly does, like, support groups. Trying to take away funding for them is like, cartoon-level evil. Fortunately, the amount they would have gotten was 100,000 pounds per year for five years. I think even with the conversion he's hit enough for a year!

ee: Unrelatedly, the RPG Valkyries have released the schedule for their RPGs We Love marathon coming up in February. If you're into RPG speedruns, this is a killer schedule.

also I am watching GDQ archives and the metroid fusion run is fantastic, but they mention that the memory corruption glitch was discovered mid-tournament and they had to rule on whether to ban it or not right then and there, is there video archive of that moment? I'd love to see it happen, hopefully it's archived somewhere.

supremely different runs, fwiw - no64 is is a no major glitches any% so that's the one to catch if you just want some ff4, the free enterprise is a co-op rando (and co-op is a fantastic format), and unprecedented crisis is a near-total conversion mod

e: also if anyone liked the cozy vibe of power up with pride the valks run a similar ship, it should be a very cozy comfortable marathon
