UA has done great, but why not drop a shout to your fav forum SomethingAwful. I know SomethingAutistic gets some rep but an offshoot of our great forums shouldnt be the sole benefactor of these events. I need a ton more posters in the ylls to make sure im hitting peak gains and doing appropriate cardio, and crowdsourcing off additional refugees from reddit would help. Thanks UA! Seeya nexy year!

Stupid question, the Awful Block is named after the games being terrible, and not goons requesting those games? Maybe it's just the capital in Awful throwing me and making me wonder if I'm overthinking it.

Nah, I'm just tired, first heard it here (never heard it the last few years I've watched a few runs), and thought there might be goons who speedrun spectacularly lovely games and they've taken to calling it the Awful Block.

Like, 90% I was sure I was drastically over thinking it, but figured I'd ask anyway.

When I get an official playlist finished I'll have it set to start each video just before the run starts. There's a lot of different reasons why I don't crop out the setup times so those are going to stay in for the foreseeable future.

It was so terrible I'm surprised it had any kind of ending at all. With it's cheap slapped together in a weekend feel, I half expected the levels to just wrap around infinitely.

I tuned into Trihex's stream once and he was really playing up the anti-asian sentiment because of super mario maker and it made me real uncomfortable. Heard on some other streamers' channels that that isn't entirely uncommon.

I don't watch his stream, but I think he refers to every Japanese level as a "Jap level"?

It's just a meme with Mario Maker streams that Japanese levels are either exceptionally good, or exceptionally bad, the latter more often so than the former. Trihex plays a lot to his chat, so that might be what you overheard.

I don't think he has much against Asians since I'm pretty sure he's a huge weeabo.

Japanese mario makers, especially on a 100 mario expert run, make NOTORIOUSLY hard levels, usually the bullshit hard variety. I really doubt it's racism, more of a dumb meme

Memes can be racist, too. Playing up to chat or not, that was the first time seeing him outside of GDQ and it was a pretty big bummer.

Not saying anyone is or isn't racist, but at no point does being a weeaboo make someone immune to judgement/stereotyping/being not nice. I mean let's be real, we've all probably heard some weird fetishism and stereotyping about Japan from weeaboos (though not all).

It's a thing that if you just tune in once or twice sounds weird

But all mario makers do the

OMG I CAN'T STAND THESE drat AMERICAN LEVEL CREATORS SCRUBS

UGH OF COURSE JAPANESE LEVEL CREATORS ALWAYS TROLLING ME, gently caress

drat GERMAN LEVELS. WHY ARE YOU GUYS LIKE THIS.

I can totally see out of context it being odd.


At the same time he is an awkward dude who created a waifu twitch extension, has anime posters behind him as he streams and wears anime muscle t's, and also goes on long chats about his favorite animes at the drop of a hat.
Compared to a lot of other streams he's tame.


But keep in mind he's slowly learning, someone linked him awkwardly giggling at wersters niggas earlier where he's a little more aware now. but internet.

to be fair people attribute things like that to everything. First example that comes to mind is the Top Gear guys talking about German cars and German engineering. It's always overly complex but super reliable and well made. I don't know if it's really racism but it's really not that uncommon.
