That run was fun and hopefully not too long but a bit goofy :3:

Studio got $6000 to make videos for 5 months and he only did it for 2 months and then he disappeared and now speed runs

Destroy this man and all he stands for

I made like 80some vids, a bunch of shorts, and a did lot of casting for much longer.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh gurl

edit: it was a good run, felt more like a lets play than a speedrun though.

I think the problem is that once you get the strats down it sort of its.

Also, for those not in Minneapolis right now, there was a severe thunderstorm throughout the entire run. I was terrified the power was going to go out.

I have go take the light rail for 10 minutes and walk for 10 minutes to get back to the venue, and I'm not sure I want to go out there right now :ohdear:

Also Jumper 2 was a pretty decent indie game for 2004.

I would've preferred to see An Untitled Story though. Has that ever been run at one of these?

Untitled Story is the most :3: :3: :3: :3: :3: :3: :3: game in the universe (actually, Runman is), but I feel like no one would know what's going on.

This run will take less time than the setup.

Undertale is one of those runs that's on the verge of being okay because there are some cool glitches, but the core of the run is text mashing or grinding. Any% is Genocide route with Muffet spared with a pastry. True Pacifist has some neat skips but it's so much text. I feel like it's a run that should be in a marathon once then never again (unless something great happens)

Here's a question for UA or other powers that be: could there be a mention of the console (or PC) in the schedule alongside with the game? If memory serves me right, this was a thing in some past events.

It was! I'm wondering if we might want an "expanded info" button that shows more information about the schedule (console, notes, stuff like that). I will pass this on to the web dev.

Oyster, you've added an extra dimension to these marathons that I never thought I'd associate with GDQs. Thanks for opening up at a such a personal level, and you, Sam, Sam's family, and your brothers are always welcome at a GDQ. I owe you a bigger hug next time I see you.
