i am starting to questing if they make that fnaf incentive now. i usually will be the first to tell others that a goal will be hit but we need 40k in an hour, which is easy later on in a marathon but might be a challenge on monday.

I'm never betting against incentives being met again tbh, I've always been wrong. I'm sure Yeti will drop another 10k at some point in the hour. Might be a bit tight but it's a really popular franchise.

Very ready for HORROR BLOC, it's always one of the highlights.

isn't it 2 hours since there is an hour block for daily recap?

I thought the recap was like, 15 minutes? (+whatever extra time they need to shill in FNAF :sun:)

yetee and fangamer will dump in more money if needed

100%. Waiting lets them motivate more regulars people to donate, it's smart. They'll even stretch and shill on the break and then drop if they need to :P

probably not but more games means more gdq so i hope it gets met

Never be enough GDQ.

Changing the schedule to make sure it gets met is hilarious though. Always more special tactics :p

I don't get how Yetee exists as a business. I never heard of them for 50 weeks of the year and the other two they give away all their revenue.

They do stuff otherwise, but even focusing on this, those tshirts are not dear when bought at their level of bulk. Then throw in the massive number of orders and it's a nice low margin, high turnover model where a large part of your advertising is included already! And they might get some tax rebate as well, but I know dick all about the US tax system.

Look I don't think this is even 1/4 of the quality that it'd have to be to justify the hype but I don't think this run is like, terrible or anything. If this had just been a nighttime run in one of the off-peak slots it seems like it'd be fine.

I mean they're talking, the commentator is pretty active, there's, like, tech. Runs can, and have, done so much worse than this.

Run is fine, leaning a little heavy on the "game dumb lololol" jokes, but nothing wrong with it, totally decent run. Seems to be getting better if anything, runner seems to be warming up a bit. Tbf Enigma is one hell of an act to follow.

Crowd gonna carry this poo poo by upping his confidence imo.

There's a lot of screen tearing going on and it's messing with me and I'm resisting the urge to yell out that they need to turn on vsync, but, they need to turn on vsync.

Only one step down from people touching my monitor when pointing at it, is screen tearing. /twitch

I'm mostly hoping it'll be intelligible. I like randos in concept, but in execution I often can't tell what the hell is going on, even in games like LTTP that I've played to death.

Are they have commentators? The rando races with commentary are the best ones.

Also: This Mario run will be a highlight of the whole event, what a fun run/runner/coach.

Interestingly, tomorrow night there will be a speedrun race of a Super Mario World hack called Celeste.SMC that is a Celeste inspired Kaizo SMW hack. If you like Celeste, check it out.

Also, shortly after is a blind relay race of custom kaizo Super Mario World levels, one of which was made by Maddy.

I do love me some rom hack mario.

This Borderlands 2 run is fun, BOING BOING BOING.
