Yeah it did. I think it started with the SMB2 run there? I don't recall fully, AGDQ was kind of a fever dream.

It was a small thing for Super Mario World runs because of there's a single level that you fall a long way down with an orb just sitting there. It just got big because audience (and us) love to run things into the ground, for better or for worse.

i love the cheesiness, and the commentary! it's just, one joke/meme, repeated over and over and over again over the course of a run (let alone a huge portion of the marathon, like it got to be at AGDQ) is really tiresome and sucks the enjoyment out of the whole thing for me. :(

i get that people are having fun though, and it's hard for me to be like... mad at them for it.

I don't have any problem with people telling orb . I have a problem with the one guy who is aggressively stepping on the gas and trying to be the o r b M a s t e r. It's cute that like some of the kids watching etc tell orb too, accd to the tweets going on.

IIRC it's a rare encounter in the game Drakkhen, that makes a sound a lot like a bunch of pots and pans being banged together. I can't seem to find a video of it but this is another weird thing from the same game the joke is that the "i love you" encounter is mr. pots and pans wife https://www.twitch.tv/pjdicesare/clip/EagerHomelyWerewolfVoHiYo
