Honestly milking bronies for donations in some favorite pony bid war seems like a solid idea to me.

a few people I've talked to and myself agreed it's about 2 years too late for getting the maximum money out of it brony-wise, but figured it'll do decent if enough people see it and share it.

Nah, they said there's no standardized block of awful games. There's really like two times where the awful/silly games are being done
and some others throughout the event.

Splitting the bad games up into 2 blocks is pretty standard usually is by "classic" and "x"

at agdq 2014 the french community raised a bunch of money to name a file after a french runner who was fighting cancer

then 4chan sniped it for a joke about the illuminati

moral of the story is the internet sucks

e. the french also raised money for a time machine

This would be more interesting if it was a four player run. And then as long as they had the crazy five screen set up, they could follow it up with a speedrun of that Final Fantasy game.

The single player systems break the game so much that most people aren't even interested in trying 4 player outside of the technical and geographical limitations involved.

I missed most of Super Metroid and only came in during the mother brain fight. WTF wiped everyone? From the time stamps I can guess that the ghost squid got one person, maybe the Ridley fight got another? Not sure what would have got the third guy.

Explaining before you rocketed through it was a wise idea

I actually meant to explain even more about what pico 8 is but I'm not the best at remembering things as evidenced by my couch having to shout out the other 100% runner who wasn't there.

The ambient waaaahs that permeated the entirety of the Mario Maker run might have been my favorite part of the whole marathon

That goes to the hot pockets Twitter account figuring out what was going on during Mario Maker for me.

Well the real champion was the 24 hour diner with a full bar and spiked shakes but that's just an attendee thing

Friendly reminder there's about an hour left to get SGDQ tees if you cared about those http://theyetee.com/sgdq

This was easily one of the best GDQs I've ever watched, what a good time. Sound crew was incredible and it made a huge difference in stream quality.

hard to believe this is the only live event they do, they really took everything that came their way without breaking a sweat.

Out of curiosity, how long does it take to break down the whole setup?

I'd estimate at least 40 manhours of work, way more if you count world9 collecting all their TVs.

Whoever sent in that Jeb Bush donation should get a medal, man.

Depending on the audio tech runners weren't always being fed the host's mic in their headsets so it's possible he couldn't hear it
