Don't forget to install both FrankerfaceZ and BetterTwitchTV so you can meme hard in the poverty chats of your choice with fellow shitters.

Meh. I think the thread spent more effort on ripping into those guys during those two games than we did for any other block or runner. So I'm counting it as a block.

I'm sure someone's favorite body pillow will show up to act as co-commentator.

Normally I'd already be out there, helping set stuff up, but I caught something nasty early in the week (102.6F fever on Tuesday) so I had to push my flight back to tomorrow.

Looking forward to being part of the first 4-way NES race Wednesday mid-day. :toot:

Predicting GDQ wiring to catch fire and burn down the hotel eight hours into the marathon as UraniumAnchor is asleep in his room in a medication induced haze.

Weirdly enough, it'll be a fiber optic cable that starts the fire...

I had a beer once with Stephen Miller and now I like him.

I also tried to ban someone from a Discord for pointing out what an unrelenting shithead I am! I'm even dumb enough to think it worked!

Hopefully 2016 will be your year Eonwe. I support your goal of being the most annoying child on these here forums.

But you're going to have a lot of competition from D&D, probably going to have to branch out a bit more to reach the top.

Given all the people banned for stupid jokes and drama surrounding the event this year, I gotta say I'm more looking forward to potential trainwrecks than the event itself.

I do hope HC has a good TF run though, good buddies with him and he puts a ton of work into that stuff, plus the coop with Optimus Prime incentive is hilarious.

Banned as in from the thread? Or banned from the event?

The only people I know who are banned from the event are the crash kid from last year (although that may have been changed).

I was gonna say you can't really get RNG screwed in BoI but then I realized when you're speedrunning you have to skip most of the level for optimal time and can easily end up with poo poo items as a result. And playing it with a fixed seed is just boring.
