Puncayshun is kind of the current big SM64 runner isn't he? I think he generally has more viewers then Sig now, and has all the WRs or whatever (though Sig is still very well known).

LiveEgg seems nice. Siglemic is ingrained as THE SM64 runner so I like seeing more competition versus him. Like, if you go to an invalid Twitch page you're linked to Siglemic's stream


Yeah I don't know Caleb's case specifically. Like even in small marathons I've noticed it's easy to get desensitized. I think that's why I don't like donations without really specific goals in mind. When you have a focus or project the donations all stay super relevant.

I haven't watched Caleb's stream in a few months but I used to watch a couple times a week, and yeah he's really charismatic and humble. He realizes that strangers on the internet paying you because they like to watch you play video games is not something you take for granted, even for a second. He also tries to interact with chat as much as possible (without interrupting his run) and I think that goes a long way in making people feel like part of a community, and therefore more willing to donate when/if they can.

Yeah, I don't watch him that often but he seems genuinely thankful for even a dollar donation which I always thought was cool of him.

Twitch's web design is all about %s and it makes it so things like their "suggested resolution" for various art assets of someone's page looks good at exactly 1 resolution.

Imagine how much more sad and lonely we would be if not for the hard work of lowtax. Here's $12.95 to his aid.
P.T (PS4, the Silent Hills teaser) would suit the Spookathon. It can reliably be run, the only issue is getting a certain mic-input section performed correctly, the MGS ! sound is what I play via an external unit to get it working every time.

It's part of the chain of it, the most reliable way. Got the notes somewhere but the final loop gets completed in under 30 seconds.

Most people that knew him really well feel that way, but for people not involved in the community he's an rear end in a top hat (and most people involved actually). Also, I think that Cubey meant he sided with CHead during the events at AGDQ. Which is really weird considering there was a laundry list of really negative things he'd done.

Honestly though if he was acting the way he was because of a drug problem then I really do wish the best for him and hope he comes out of it. Drug addiction has never affected me directly but I know a lot of people who have had to go through some really rough times due to loved ones' drug habits and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Sexually harassed like every woman he came across, grabbed at least one random girl's rear end, was very obviously drunk and/or high during his extremely grating run, argued when he was told to leave by the event organizers and the hotel staff, so the police were called to escort him away and he argued with them too. Mike Uyama did talk about all of this a while ago.

I don't think there was ever a pastebin about Controllerhead at all now that you mention it. Ironic considering how big of a deal it was to pretty much everyone at the event.
