There are a small handful of non-GDQ events, both irl and online, that manage to scrape by under the baleful glare of the secret speedrunning cabal, just keep it low-key before Uyama finds out
https://forum.speeddemosarchive.com/board/community_marathons_and_meetups.html

SGL's calendar is another good resource for upcoming events

I didn't know him personally but it was always a treat to have him show up in speedrunner chats with his upbeat attitude and trademark "Good luck and/or blame Everhate". He lifted many, many spirits in the community over the years.

He was also a great advocate for mental health awareness, supporting the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) through RPGLB and writing a pastebin about fighting stigmas and his own personal struggles with schizophrenia.

What are your favorite Everhate memories?

Bonesaw being banned for "having fun" is one of those zombie lies that will never go away because reddit diaper babies are convinced GDQ is staffed by scowling old dowagers

Not that I doubt big jon, but wasnt there a streamer in a wheel chair a few years ago who left his webcam on and started walking around. Scammy streamers aren't new
Thank you for doing the important work of pointing out the existence of dishonest people, and for your personal reassurance that big jon isn't defrauding the internet

You are well intentioned but it is patronizing as poo poo for you to gate-keep and act like you know what's best for me and patronize me on what I am allowed and not allowed to watch, which I feel like is being treated like a child. I just want to enjoy my niche dumbass hobby and not be treated like this. This poo poo bothers me.
regurgitating social justice language in the defense of a reactionary shithead is corny as hell
