By sheer accident they'll end up doing the Trainer-Fly glitch and end up catching a level 99 Mew.

The only possible way they could do this is if Twitch takes off the 30 second delay

This is amazing but you can't watch it for more than 20 seconds without going insane

The delay is the best thing about it!

Also, holy poo poo, there are now 370,000 people watching.

At my office, people who don't even play video games are tuning in because of how interesting this broadcast is turning out.

That's how many total people have watched it so far. Right now it is 13,500 people watching. Also somehow we managed to catch another Rattata?

How the gently caress did they get this far?

No wait, how the gently caress did they beat Brock with Charmander as a starter? Overleveled or something?

With less people it's easier. Just watched them open the pokedex over and over again.

My ping is one.
I feel like two groups of people are active in discussing this, and they can be distinguished by the pronoun they use when describing what's going on. It's either "they" or "we."

The "they"s are typing "start."

I bet at the end of the experiment twitch will have conditioned a hive mind completely in sync with every single button press.

Man, i wish.

You can't make out much with the pace of the chat but it already looks like people are having aneurysms over the way this is going/not going. :allears:

Trolling "start" got old a long time ago, but everyone keeps doing it anyway. :(

Not for the constant influx of new clowns who think they're the smartest guys in the room, only to complain about the new guys doing it an hour later. An influx that will never cease.

Group dynamics are a beautiful thing.

How have they possibly not quit and restart the game yet by random chance?

No combo inputs or holds, so "a+b+select+start" can't be done. The emulator probably presses the button for 1 frame the moment the irc bot reads the line.

Exit just exits the pause menu.

There is no escape.

Even if you could get to the main menu it would just say that there's already a file and you should delete the file to start a new game and you can't delete without button combos.

I just tuned in, how the gently caress did misty get beaten.

No, it just has an extra yes/no box to go through when saving the first time. Actually, I don't even know if Gen 1 even has that confirmation box.

5 minutes of "A" spam on sand-storm (so all her attacks missed) and then a few lucky attack spams.

Also at the time only 4000 viewers.

I tuned in about six hours ago and they were there, so at least that long.

It turns out the hard part wasn't getting into Cerulean, it is getting out.

Edit: seriously, how is this ever going to get past the first boulder-pushing puzzle? :psyduck:

They almost got to Vermillion but a trainer knocked them out. I think they were two trainers away from Vermillion.
