get that OUT of my face

There were a lot of complaints about the LttP Randomizer race. While a one-vs.-one race isn't the best way to explain how something works, the announcers made it worse. It felt like they assumed people knew about how things work already, but there's a lot to know that you can't really get without watching enough runs.

I think this video does a decent job of explaining things, though.

I hope that LttP randomizer isn't booted from the schedule for future GDQs, but they shouldn't race it next time.

I think next time, they should have a solo rando run where somebody who's knowledgeable and can explain things well goes over things, so that future races can have something people can watch if they're not familiar.

That, or just get better announcers who can explain things. They weren't good.
