"Awful games" block is just a blanket label.

It regularly features legitimately good games that just don't fit into any normal categories. Last time it featured games like Round-a-bout, which is an amazing game that's just plain weird.

uh no that's the right label for it.

Well then stop using twitch. Stream on something that allows gratuitous flexing.

And as long as I'm asking for things I'm not gonna get, give Naegleria the mic. I want to know what he really thinks about the new Mario Kart.

For shame. That was an hour of fundraising you gave up!

Actual question though: How long after the event do donations still trickle in? Do you guys fully shut down the donation link right as you end the stream or do you leave it active for a few days to pull in some late donations?

Missed this question before. We got a donation for AGDQ2016 in May. Generally we lock the event when we set up the next one.

OH MY GOD GLOVER
I'm excited! Some good games as always (even though some submissions I personally would've liked to see didn't make it through, like Lufia 2).

Hopefully the donation total will be higher than the last AGDQ - could be possible since it's Médecins Sans Frontières and not that US-only charity they used for AGDQ.

Maxwell Adams posted:

I hope they stop trying to be so professional. That e-sports vibe they went for last time really bummed me out. Don't put them in an interview chair and ask them to participate in a press release about speedrunning, let them do whatever they feel like doing to entertain themselves/the audience. I'm not here because I want to see the employees in a speedrun factory, I want to see nerds be nerds.

Nah. The event is just far too big for that anymore. Sadly the days of just having a bunch of nerds who pretty much have little to no plan trying to keep things smooth with an honor system and fingers crossed just isn't viable anymore. Not when you're pulling in 2+million in donations every year across two massive events that work with some of the largest and most well known charities in the world.
