I wonder if he was trying to go down in history books with his stunt or something. Kinda doubt he will. What a strange series of events.

 Has the planning document been posted (either by GDQ or the runner himself)?

LOL he even says it outright. "Uhm... can we not use this? It seems that the video I have done is the fastest one" I guess no one could connect the dots and just thought it's his broken english or something.

We may never know. Still a less interesting question than why did he do it at all.

In the end all they will have achieved is possibly loving over other hybrid events so gently caress him.

They've been doing remote runs thru the older GDQs and Fatales events for years and this is the first issue I know of with remote runs so I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't really change much due to this.

The worst thing about GDQ this year was the guy in the Mario 64 run who kept pronouncing it "Bomb-Ob"

But he doesn’t seem to feel the same way about the rest of the stunt, instead claiming its deeper meaning is some sort of “puzzle to solve.” That's the kind of coherent, concise explanation you'd expect from somebody pulling a stunt like this.

The "don't call it a world record" thing is listed as note on the video linked on speedrun.com (from the end of March) and it appears as a stream element when he finishes the run. How bizarre. https://www.speedrun.com/mgrr/run/z0ovjnjz Mierenneuker fucked around with this message at 17:29 on Jul 6, 2022 |

"A taunt" "A puzzle to solve" Yeah this guy is a regular The Riddler, if The Riddler never gave Batman all the pieces he needed to solve his riddles and also never quite settled on what point he was trying to make in the first place.

The Mario Odyssey Darker Side run was a joy to watch from start to finish, incredible couch, runner, and host, and the movement was insanely consistent Definitely my must-watch pick

I missed basically all of this live, I'm glad they've gotten much more consistent with their VOD youtube channel. I remember in the past it was... wonky.

I didn't post in this thread cause I was too busy chatting in Discord. It was a good event! I'm still catching up via the Youtube uploads. I recommend the FFX run for the late-night/early-morning manic energy. Runner and couch were very entertaining, and the run itself is solid. JethroMcB posted:"A taunt" It's in the same vein of people that claim "it was a social experiment!" which is just a step away from "it's just a prank, bro!" They're all dipshits.
