the bug meant that from ~8th only previously-known donors appeared on the list - the big spike appearing is them replaying donations

i then am slightly confused then as of where does $192,547 humble bundle donation fits in, especially given that later on stream it was announced that they have to manually add donations to the tracker over the course of next weeks


also numbers do not match exactly, which confuses me even more

the guy in the zelda costume is trying to play a video game really fast, and he's being timed, so he can't just stop. the girl is knitting for the same reason anyone knits. she's talking about her grandma and cancer because the event is ostensibly to benefit the prevent cancer foundation, and the announcer is reading donations to this foundation, but nobody there at the event actually cares about cancer, they care about speed running video games. the girl knows this perfectly well, since she's an organizer of the event, which is why everyone in the room acted even more awkwardly than usual

no he's not going to pause the game and people are pretty annoyed with her. it's a speed run and there's tons of people that are calling in and making donations, and at times mentioning other people that suffered with cancer, but they all do this tastefully. the speed runner isn't going to pause for them. they play as an incentive to the donations

this girl has serious problems to take advantage of the live show and poo poo it up with over a 100k viewers watching. it's one thing to talk to people you know will listen and when the time is right, but this was totally out of left field

So it turns out the only reason Tetris the Grand Master got a prime time spot was because the organizer lost his passport and missed his flight from France. He ended up spending 1500 euros on a second flight and got there 3 hours before that part of the stream started.
