I would check the forums or any discords that are hopefully linked there about Emus. Really depends on if you want to run it for fun, or get a time on the leaderboard

Legality is probably the least important part of this. It's appearing under the stream while under the effects of anything, and the fact that it led to someone going to the hospital. Could be alcohol, weed, doesn't really matter, but they were clearly not in a good state to be on stream. In Bubbles case, he gave him the edible, and I actually feel like he's more responsible. If you give a newbie an edible, you better loving make sure they don't trip badly, at least not at a GDQ.

the last time i said this in a gdq thread i was crucified

e: i kinda feel like there should be a standard for gdq runs where you can only have so many glitches per run, like 5 or some poo poo. if you have a huge glitch like the one Zelda LttP one that allows you to beat the game in literally 2 minutes because you can wrong warp to the triforce room, that's cool and definitely worth showing off. if there are a couple of glitches that skip like 80% of the game, that can be fun too. but if you're constantly whoring glitches to make 30 minutes of broken bullshit viewing that's totally incomprehensible to literally anyone but other runners you really need to get off the couch. if anything i feel like THOSE runs should have their own block and the awful games block needs to be an awful games norm where every like 5th game is a really bad one.

If a GDQ runner ever goes above 5 glitches they must be punished.

For some reason, using an emulator bug to solve the any percent a-button challenge seems unsatisfying, even if the emulator in question is an official Nintendo N64 emulator running on the Wii.

Thanks for the heads up Studio! SGDQ aligns perfectly with some time off I'm taking this year, so I was really bummed that I didn't get a registration in when they initially opened up.

Glad to help! Not sure how many spots are left, but refunds are cancelled at 11:59 alongside registration, so it will probably be in flux for a bit.

I believe there was also some other dumb furry drama, like making a global emote of his boyfriend's fursona with a name referencing said fursona's (glow in the dark?) genitals.

Internet drama was fun in the previous administration. Now it's just exhausting. I've gotten old, man. I'm becoming my parents, as if my backache and receding hairline wasn't reminder enough.



Horror had no tact in how he dealt with people, and managed to get an internet aggro mob on him that probably wouldn't have happened if he had more foresight. The emote thing was goofy though, he put up NightLight, which was his boyfriend's fursona. Except this was when a bunch of other people's emotes were being denied, and I'm 90% sure that the only art of NightLight that existed outside of the emote was vore with Horror's fursona.

Horror and NightLight were global. Partners emotes you had to subscribe for.

I just had a look at the speedrun.com leaderboards for Ducktales Remastered and if I de-rust I should be able to get top 5, think I'll give that a shot sometime soon. It's probably due to being an inactive leaderboard but I'll take it.

Submit to agdq. I'll casual play Tomb Raider 2013 when I get back, see if it's what I want to run.
