At SGDQ after 30-odd hours of traveling. Now to watch while finishing dissertation revisions, because my life decisions are the best and worst all at the same time.

Rirse posted:A little girl was watching her dad and was curious about what SGDQ was about. And she decided to use her piggybank money to donate 5 dollars toward not killing the animals. Now there's a ton of donations in the queue that are $5.54 (the amount when converted from her UK donation) or $55.40 or similarly inspired numbers.

timp posted:what is your dissertation Taking videogame strats (especially speedrunnimg and glitches) and reading them back onto 20th century novels like Pale Fire and Finnegans Wake. Somehow I'm getting away with this in my English department. And getting finding to go to GDQs (which are basically academic conferences). I dunno.

TheMadMilkman posted:Skipping to the last page of a book is the original speed strat. This is oddly enough something that people have saying for centuries--because with drama you have to wait thru the whole thing.

TheMadMilkman posted:I recall reading of recent studies showing that, generally speaking, having a movie/book/tv show spoiled doesn't substantially reduce the viewer's enjoyment. Sure, just drop me a DM here or something if you want, I have to finish by the end of the month. mangler103 posted:WOW. Sounds really cool, would love to hear about the theory sometime—I'm actually giving a paper on ultra-speedrunning in the fall (specifically, Final Fantasy XII Order of Ambrosia%, which is about 27-30 hours), very intrigued by all that.
