More like 3 and a half hours, and there's other runners before/after/in between him so there's that.

He'll certainly be on the couch during romscout's run, and maybe during startropics since he's running the second one.

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.
Is it a bit laggy and skipping slightly for anyone else?

His runs were pretty boring to watch last AGDQ than most of the other ones, and his melodramatics during the ending sequence was just embarrassing.

Do they post the SGDQ videos after the stream, or is it just live? There's a few I'd really like to watch that I won't be around for.

They've actually archived videos from every marathon so far except the impromptu Japan Relief Done Quick. The links end up on archive.org and also linked to the marathon schedule page itself, but you'll have to wait awhile due to all the post-production work that has to be done to make them watchable.

Or you can just watch them on the Twitch.tv page. :v:

(Warning: It involves a bit of digging since they're not separated by game, but it's an option if you absolutely, positively cannot wait for them to encode/upload a given run).

Thank god, I'm glad I have the approval of Forums Badposter Alteisen.

But honestly, jman is a bad runner (most of his "runs" are lovely let's plays, seriously compare the Kirby's Adventure run romscout just finished where he did cool tricks and actually explained poo poo about the game to the Dreamland 3 run jman's doing right now where he's just playing through the game and making dumb jokes/wacky observations) and he's also a bad person, he deserves whatever poo poo he gets regardless of how mature it is/I am. Don't get so worked up!

What was the reference anyway? Seriously, this is the internet. Let's not get too upset about making fun of strangers. SGDQ is really awkward looking. It's nice that they are raising money for a good thing though.

Don't really think a charity stream is the place to air that kind of poo poo, you don't know him in any capacity, whatever he did is on him and his own conscience to deal with it.

This Portal run is pretty impressive, but I hate how people are just talking straight through the guy when he's actually explaining what he's doing.

edit: great run. First interesting run so far.
