Had no plans on making a thread myself since I figured it wasn't worth it for just a weekend marathon, haha (the ESAW/FF thread was for two weeklong marathons in a row and that racked up a grand total of one and a half pages of posts, lol). Can post some of my standard links I guess.

The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

Argick seems to have a good instinct for playing to the camera. Most facecams I see are dead-eyed focus.

I missed the first few minutes of Celeste, was a reason given for why the music is turned off?

EDIT: Nevermind, it was just brought up. Apparently TGH does practice with the music turned off and forgot to turn it back on because he's playing without game audio for some reason.

I've updated my GDQ VODs site so that it lists all the upcoming runs on the CRDQ page. Slowly moving towards making it auto-update and have support for reminders/alerts when a run starts.

Hello speedfriends.

This was unexpected, and is awesome.

So at the risk of getting stupid personal, uh, last GDQ, I had literally JUST gotten a job after being unemployed for nearly two years. My savings were gone; my 401(k) was not yet plundered but was next to go.

I got a job the week before GDQ started.

I donated.

I'm fortunate enough now to still have my job, and I donated again.

Thank you GDQ friends for doing what you do.

Ah, this is one of those "keep quicksaving and quickloading and abusing menus to skip cutscenes in a lengthy RPG" runs. Pass.

It's too bad so many speedruns of 3D games involve like staring at the floor running backwards through a featureless void

Pump It Up already a strong contender for best run of the marathon.

How is he going to do this for a full hour, how has he done this for even twenty minutes :psyduck:

This is actually one of the interesting benefits of a remote marathon. I doubt you'd ever get to see something like this at a live GDQ, so it's a neat addition.

How can he do this not only without being winded to the point of silence, but while actually doing super awesome commentary?

According to some of my friends that are also in the Pump community when I asked, they regularly do two hour marathons in competitions and he’s just had a lot of practice doing this exact thing.
