Yeah but I could only post pictures of my 3DS result screens with the in-game timer (which is the official timer for Shovel Knight AFAIR), so that's pretty lame :v:

I remember the good old DS capture box. The trick was to cover the power light with electrical tape. You got pretty good video out of that method, considering.

1.) The TASsers have descended upon Phantasy Star 2. Watch as Nei succeeds where Aeris failed, and the world is saved via unconventional means.

2.) A new glitch was found in OOT called "ledge storage" - by shielding a bomb on a specific frame of climbing a small ledge, you can confuse the game into letting you do things like walk through NPCs, skip some cutscenes and play the ocarina while dead.

The timing is great, too, since zfg just recently decided to take an indefinite break from running 100% and here comes a glitch that shaves at least like a minute off that run

So if they find a way to shave off 19 more minutes then someone might be in striking distance of his time.

I don't recall ever seeing anything publicly about a hard limit but they usually try to cycle people in and out so they're not stuck up there reading donations for hours and hours.

in the last couple of events they tightened the process of getting to host (read donations) to require you submitting an audition tape and this most recent SGDQ ended up with a pool of only 33 people who qualified which means if they all had an equal number of shifts they'd be doing about 5 games each.

according to this version of the volunteer schedule that's exactly how many one less than the number of games she was host for.

e. ctrl+f failed me on the multi-game shift

e. e. I'm not a fan of her voice either but it's scores better than the people they've had in the past who have foreign accents you can barely understand

She has nasal problems and her braces on. Add Youtube amateur mannerisms, being the host for LTTP, Mario 3 race, Mario 64 race while trying to listen to the mumblings of the runners and commentators with poor audio quality levels might the worst things out of SGDQ this year

This guy is better than me because he probably knows a second language, but I could really use a transcript for this run:

Other than all the Californians and nervous laughter / audio quality I never had a problem listening to the marathons.

In all honesty she seems like a good person and it seems she's getting better at talking but holy cow having braces and a fat nasal passage at SGDQ was horrible. There will always be a place at GDQs for the nice rear end and titties though so I don't predict that she's giving up her permanent residence at GDQ
