I can't think of any terf runners. The bigots in speedrunning tend to be nazi adjacent chuds.

And to gdq's credit they did kick him out. You're not wrong though, it's most nazi adjacent types.

Does he? I remember it being a thing where he was a jorp defender and downplayed the part where that meant he was supporting a huge transphobe. Even if it was more explicit than that, that's definitely way more in the chudosphere than anything close to terfs.

Considering how reticent GDQ has been in the past, something must have surfaced to convince them.

Was he actually banned from gdq? Or is this just another game of reddit telephone?

I don't think cheese was banned, I think he was out of town. CFB was also not banned for the bus thing

Edit: Actually CFB was probably submission banned?

I don’t think he was banned for it, but iateyourpie’s late-night run of Hotline Miami was really trolly. There’s one part where he says “oh hey, can you turn the audio up?” and leans in like he can’t hear something and then an incredibly loud flash bang goes off in-game. As soon as it’s over he goes “okay you can turn it back down”.

One bad “run” that I remember was a Mr. Driller game where the person went up and just mashed the drill button for a few minutes to beat a few stages. He then said it was really easy and anyone could do it so he had someone else play and do the same thing.

Not worst run, but cringiest probably:

Or the one where the announcer read off a really sad donator story and killed the vibe of run being played.

Not worst as in the person just messed up or the runner wasn't able to pull off any tricks but worst as in a combination of the run being bad, the runner being bad, and just the whole thing being miserable.

The ty the tasmanian tiger run comes to mind but I'm sure there are probably worse. I heard there was a really bad halo run once too but idk anything about it.

The one that comes to mind for me was a run of Trials Evolution with no game music and pretty nonexistent commentary.

I remember that one, since I was hosting Bethesda Block right after and had to think up a way to bring the hype back.
The bonus incentive made it even worse. We thought it was over, but nope! We had more to go!

Not a specific run, jaguar king's first three runs at gdq all went pretty poorly, failing tech multiple times and reverting to casual strats and only narrowly avoiding mercy kills. The runner didn't handle the problems with a ton of grace either. The good news is that he somehow got himself a fourth chance and actually pulled off a really well-done run and solo commentary for MGS4.

Here's the VOD for my English Of The Dead run at RTA in Japan. It contains:

- me complaining about american english in japanese
- prop comedy
- neko's inexplicable switch into "commentator voice"
- my bad japanese
- the rules of baseball
- protecting the loife cycle

I'd always wanted to run at RTA in Japan as some sort of vague future aspirational goal when I was more skilled at the language. Wasn't expecting it to just, happen like this lmao.

Hah, yeah that was me. We started using the zoomed out option after submitting because it was patched in between submissions being accepted and the event starting. The problem is that the run is somewhat visible when you have the full screen dedicated to it (like a personal stream/vod), but with an overlay it's just lil itty bitty pixels.
There was another RoR run after that that specifically used multiplayer to be able to zoom in and out after finding the teleporter

Ori also has a visual design problem where all the soft lighting and particle effects make it hard to stream in the first place. Frankly it should be up there with Rom Check Fail as a "do not put this on GDQ" list.
