You both, and the entire crew, did an amazing job. Not only the actual runs and tech, but the energy. The GDQ community is one of the least toxic groups I've ever been a part of. The environment of inclusion and positivity is so uplifting, and so necessary right now. I know so many people for whom GDQ events, and associated runner communities, made a quantifiable difference in their lives. None of that would exist without the work of the event crews setting an example and holding the community to those standards. Kudos on a great event, and thank you. Effortpost over.

The granny runs were so good and funny. I love how the runner has to almost constantly keep moving things forward in a somewhat improvised way

Great job by all the staff and volunteers and I'm going to second everyone who called out the flow and schedule management as an area where there was a noticeable improvement over previous events. Now I have a whole lot to catch up on

DEEP STATE PLOT posted:i'm sure jsr is already theorycrafting what other games he can teach pb to play JSR listed a few other games Peanut Butter has played already but I can’t remember all that he mentioned. I remember that PB was able to beat Glass Joe in MTPO and he was working on getting PB to win a game in a Ken Griffey baseball game Edit: this was in a Sunday interview with Keizaron I believe

Coffee Jones posted:So y’all discovered the bug live in front of everyone and came up with a workaround at the finale of gaming’s biggest marathon? It’s not exactly a new issue, and as mentioned “heals to full” is not a behavior that boss or any boss in FFV has so people quickly realized something was wrong. The problem is that there are 5 different versions of FF5, and while some of them have been heavily dissected (especially SNES and GBA) each version has its own surprising quirks. Sleeping Antlion and killing it is a completely viable strategy in the SNES and GBA versions; whomever came up with that was completely on point since most bosses aren’t susceptible to sleep. However it doesn’t work on Pixel Remaster because the developers tried to prevent you from hitting enemies so hard that you break their scripting. At least now hopefully someone will document this for the next Fiesta.

The RE2 Remake no hit run was amazing, it was great seeing Carcingoen running since his original RE2 Remake speedrun vids are what I followed to do my own S+ runs!

emdash posted:The granny runs were so good and funny. I love how the runner has to almost constantly keep moving things forward in a somewhat improvised way It was really funny how the runner built off of the Bloodstained run before it - where the audience was asked to "Awww" every time they saw a dog or cat enemy - by asking the audience to make a weird "Ugghhhh" grunt every time they saw Granny. And then within five minutes of that he started making genuine noises of surprise as Granny kept catching him off-guard.

the yeti posted:‘Rather than fix this bug let’s punish the user to avoid it’ is a big brained PM/technical manager choice  Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by … uh … video games being video games.Something like “restore HP to 100%” feels like a catch-all case in the logic. Like they couldn’t account for every combination of effects and scripts so they just fall back to a known good state instead of crashing or soft locking.

Which is probably a reasonable thing to do in FF5, a game known for its vast combinations of ways to kill things (like dropping Old on an enemy and then counting in your head until their level hits a multiple of 5 so Level 5 Doom will one-shot them).

That FFV run was incredible. Great couch, great runner, fun game. Plus once the tracker hit 2,4 million and the crowd started doing the count along HOORAY! thing, it just went to the next level. Out of all the things that could've become the GDQ meme for this year, I am glad it was HOORAY! Great GDQ in all, thanks to everyone who worked hard to give it to us.

This is a very good opinion, goblin week.

Any true Poster has already long since had their fill of “heckin pupperino good doggo” style posting. The gyromite speedrun was the “Rickroll at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade” of dog-related activities. I am pro-dog and take no pleasure in reporting this.
