it's cool when you hear about a run and it sounds insanely dumb since it's a game pretty much nobody's played but it ends up being cool. the sponge bob run was one of my faves.

Addendum to my previous comment: It looks like the black flashing was actually occurring the entire time, but we didn't start noticing it until a couple days in. My money would be on a driver issue, but we're probably just going to use a different card next time anyway.

blaming the driver series when there wasn't even a run of it this year?

ok now I'm POSITIVE, there's some bible-code style fuckery going on and I will get to the bottom of it

If there are any runs still straight up missing I can go digging. Which games have you been unable to find (besides Star Wars, presumably)?

I just ran through the full list and there's 3 runs missing from the official channel:

1/11 (Wed) - Ori and the Blind Forest
1/13 (Fri) - Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire; Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi

Everything else is there.

I'll go ahead and just upload the "final" copies of these since I'm basically ready to start that process, so hopefully I can get them up tonight. Barring any new problems they'll definitely be up by tomorrow night.

Does 'loving exhausted' count as a problem? I'll still try to have 'em up before I go to sleep, though. :v:

Edit: Apparently I lied. It took me longer than I expected to get the actual 'fix all the black frames' step working, even with all of the data. And of the runs that are missing:

1) Ori - PC game with an HD recording, so it needs an overlay, which is extra work to get synced and encoding a 1440p video (1080p for the game plus the stream overlay around it) takes ages, so this will have to wait until at least tomorrow.
2) Shadows of the Empire - Straightforward but I had to split the recording in half (away from ROTJ) because it wasn't cycled between runs.
3) Return of the Jedi - Had an interview in a different video so I had to go hunt it down and splice it out so I could prepend it to the actual run.

2) and 3) are encoding now but there's no chance they'll be ready before I sleep, and I won't have time in the morning to spot check AND upload AND make them public. I'll upload them after work tomorrow.

In serious posting if you could curate some of the extremely gross comments on some of the uploaded run videos that'd be swell

or just disable them

I want to bake cookies or a pie or something for you UA. It won't even be poisoned or anything, probably.

Also the la-mulana run was great and I played the game because of it. Overall a good choice.

This is just what the word filter catches, so only if I want to be scraping comments literally all day. (I don't.)

If I run across heinous stuff I tend to delete it, but there's way too much volume for me to keep up.

I would recommend downloading a browser plugins that hide comments for you if you don't have the self control to not read them if they upset you. Uploaders disabling comments on their videos is a terrible move that looks really bad in this poster's opinion.

nah, youtube comments are almost universally awful, and the less platforms morons get to spout their horseshit, the better. In this poster's opinion, disable that garbage

One of the few times I actually read youtube comments is for AGDQ videos because there is always a helpful person who posts a timestamp for when the run starts.

Lots of channels I follow get constructive feedback on editing/pacing tips that have led to better videos or questions being answered by the uploader about behind the scenes stuff. Or even a particular clever quip stickied to the top by the uploader. And in my channel's case: pls can u tell me where can i dl this song??????

Meanwhile, on more popular channels, it's memes, flamebait, politics, racism, and gamergate/drama/creepy bullshit almost without fail.

Then reading YouTube comments are the box that you stick your hand into to feel unimaginable pain. If you post in response, then you are an animal.
