Speaking of, has anyone put out a goonwatch schedule yet? Punchy has a run and UA is on a couch?

Not that I've seen, I was mulling over compiling a list, but don't know which runners are goons (beyond those who have indicated as such in the two threads) . I'm pretty sure I saw halfcoordinated post here last year? He's got two runs this time around.

I think PJ's Lagoon run is probably one of the best, if not THE best GDQ run I've seen. It's got everything you want, PJ, a hilarious, broken game and a great couch & commentary.

Also wish more people were around to see Might & Magic VI live from last SGDQ, since it was run early morning EU time. It's also where the various



reaction shots are from. If you didn't, you still have time.

That run was insanely good. Might be just a personal thing on where sometimes I'm just more into some glitches than others, but loading the game blue for some reason, allowing you to glitch into being 1 pixel high with a one pixel hitbox and then going to dragondeath island to load up on endgame gear was cool as gently caress and that was just he beginning.

I think my overall favorite chat moment that I would relive if I could was being in the chat thread for Batman Forever, calling out the insane names of each enemy as they appeared.

If someone has the gifs from that from the last thread, please share.

Can I get some help deciphering this photo? It looks like the phone and thumb are seen by reflection in a mirror, but the lamp is attached to the mirror, so that mirror would have to be in the ceiling, and none of this is making logical spatial sense in my mind.

So what are the advantages of Streamlink whatever? I'm an old man and installing things is hard with the configuarations and the clernifications, so I'm probably just going to watch on Twitch unless someone convinces me to do effort.

The first time it was in a marathon, it was a pretty humorous twist that changed things up and gave some variety so it wasn't just like "every other marathon". But it's been done multiple times now and frankly, I think the joke has gotten old by this point.

Especially nowadays there's so many speedrunners that have great runs to offer, and we are putting them aside to put in this running gag that I feel like most people honestly don't care to watch anymore. The AwGDQ last year took up 6 hours of timeslots. That's quite a lot for what it is, you could fit an entire game block or two with that much time, and I am sure they would be more entertaining and bring in more donations.

I really dislike seeing this go on and not really hearing anyone say anything about it, if AwDGQ does happen this year, please make it the last time, or at the least please shorten how long it is.

Or if you want to keep that time block of "something different", let people run their lesser known games that I know people would want to watch (Billy Hatcher is a good example). You could call it "Obscure Games Done Quick" or something idk.

Awful Games Done Quick just doesn't seem fair to either the people interested in going to the marathon or to the viewers and supporters for the marathon. Thanks.
