Don't worry I didn't get read either.

The daughters/dollars flub totally saved that run, even if the dude was doing fine at the game. It was looking to be a dreadful stage presence... and then. :v:

I can deal with not being read.

But I want you all to know I donated towards playing as Fem Shep for Mass Effect, as is good and proper.

"I want to see what she's in love with."

I've never been that interested in these style of open world games for speedrunning, and it took a little before the runner and commentator got into a groove, but man having it on in the background was perfect. Great run for sure.

Like, this run was one of the best donation per minute average so far, and it's a late night nothing run.

Someone said he did and sounded like Rick Astley but I didn't hear it.

He only seemed to flub that one crash part twice like 10-15 minutes into the run, everything else looked super smooth even not knowing the game at all.

"I want to see what she's in love with."

If you're nervous, games like this are pretty rough in my opinion. Even with good play the car can be really floaty and over a long run you'd expect a certain amount of failures especially compared to other speedrun games, which can make you even more nervous.

Having a running gag to latch onto plus like every message being run early in the run really encouraged the donations.

Run seemed like it was going to be so bad I was going to go to bed but ended up watching the whole stupid thing and even blew $7 to get a donation read hopefully someone buys that guy some taco bell now he deserves it.
