Now I’m regretting not going to ESA in person, it’d be cheaper for me than trying to go to GDQ, but still a small investment to do it. It would have been cool to see Punchy or Kenny in person there :3:

i am absolutely not worth travelling a significant distance to meet

Well, I’m in the U.K. so travelling somewhere in Europe for ESA is cheaper than getting to the USA for GDQ. Mainly I just want to go to an event to see things in person one day. Plus at the risk of sounding a super weird goon, honestly you’re pretty cool, seeing you (and other runners) at an event would be be awesome.

They mentioned resetting and at this point I think it would have been faster for Fudgecow to have reset after not getting the skip

Welp he did just as I posted, but I meant at the point he failed the skip :shobon:

I'd love to donate, but I'm so strapped financially this month I will have to send my support virtually this time.

Me too, I’m poor and can’t donate :( I always feel bad about this. One day I plan to make up for it if I can.

I need to save my money for things I generally need with a small limit for treats/useful things if I see discounts or sales, and I’m still trying to save for a new PC which I badly need.

I'm not familiar with Fudgecow but Sayvi is chill and cool and good and fudgecow does appear to be too so I hope everybody has a good time let's all be friends

This is a good first run, some skips were failed and things went wrong but it’s been a nice chill start so far.

I recently played through Dark Souls 3 and the DLC so I’m looking forward to seeing how they do the dlc bosses and especially the very final boss. That was the boss I had the hardest time with and summoned in help (I’m weird and try to solo everything in the Souls games unless I get frustrated or decide I’m not good enough).

The guy I summoned in for the final dlc boss was this Japanese guy who got hit down to no health, I seriously couldn’t see any of his health bar, and just went nuts doing most of the work and didn’t heal at all. It kinda owned and shamed me.

Awesome race, and Sayvi's positive energy is very fun. Well done to Fudge as well that was crazy close.

That was a great race. Fudge did incredibly well catching up from being 7-8 minutes behind. Sayvi is fun and had a solid run too!

KennyMan666, the other threads OP, is also there - and in #speedruns on synirc (which everyone should totally hang out in) he said he's also gonna be hosting later on.

Yes! I did see that, I’m excited to see Kenny in action too :) That irc channel is great even though I rarely/never talk there. I recommend others idle there too!

I just made and ate some fantastic dinner this evening: seasoned lamb chops, garlic mushrooms, and mashed potato. I rarely eat lamb but I wanted a good thing to eat as a treat this week.

I’m feeling very comfy and good right now to watch the rest of the evenings speedruns :)

Hello friends. I need to eat as well, and probably also need to play some LttP rando while watching. Gonna be a fun afternoon.

I’m planning on playing LttP casually soon for the first time and then try my hand at speedrunning it. I’ve learned how I can do the randomiser if I ever wanted to try that too!

I’m in a big Zelda mood lately, I just finished Twilight Princess and started Breath of the Wild this morning (although I played that once already I really want to replay it on Switch now).

Although I also started Dragons Dogma again after playing it many years back on 360 which seems to be kind of popular on my tiny stream I do compared to other games. I’m trying to get more followers because streaming and focusing on that is helping my mental attitude and some IRL issues I have so it’s good for me and helps me feel more positive, even though it sounds dumb.

I might actually look into speed running dragon’s dogma because it has a speedrun mode as one of the menu options!

Sorry, that’s a big derail, my apologies.

I love listening to swedes talk. I used to play world of Warcraft some years back with a bunch of goons in my raid team and most were Swedish so after I got used to it I found that pretty great. There was lots of swenglish and I learned a little bit I’ve forgot most of it now sadly. Sweden is a country I think I’d like to live in if I had the chance.
