Donate lots of money, folks! Doctors without Borders is a truly amazing organization, they deserve all the help and attention in the world!

This is the wrong thread and I'm an idiot. But I completely agree, super awesome organization.

A Hat in Time is, against all my expectations, going on the Highly Recommended Runs list. Cool game that's relatively easy to follow even if you haven't played it, and fantastic commentary by both the runners and the couch.

People are supposed to get hurt by things. It's fucked up to not. It's not good for you.

Cuphead, Hat in Time and Celeste were a triple threat of fantastic runs. Watch the entire indie block.

Super proud of GDQ for closing out the two day long Spoopy Block with the erotic horror of Pepsiman.

Getting Over it, Miner Ultra Adventures and Roundabout are also must-see.

After Roundabout eSports mode, watch Studio's all cutscenes run from SGDQ 2015. Trust me on this.

gently caress i'm dumb too.

But this is a good place to remind people to watch the silly block, some of those game were extremely silly. It started right after Celeste and goes at least up to Pac Man 2.

Gotta leave myself a note to watch the FEAR and Hat in Time runs. How long after the event do they usually upload the segments to YouTube?

Runs are already being uploaded at https://www.youtube.com/user/gamesdonequick/videos (up to Rise of the Tomb Raider so far, which was a run I really enjoyed also hi studio) or https://www.gdqvods.com has the Twitch links

Some third-party did it for AGDQ so I assume that same person could do it again. If I was smarter, I would've make clips and done it myself.

The SMB3 race was a goddamn emotional rollercoaster for everyone who watched, an unreal amount of positive vibes from the runners and the announcer and an unbelievable amount of real poo poo that happened, you've got to go back and watch it if you missed.

the first time it happened it was the catalyst of a very warm moment

the second time is a big bummer, especially when the runners were so unsynced but conceptually neck and neck.

And by "couldn't stop" you mean "one time in TR, which was unfortunate, and then did the next section completely blind."

I just now noticed the background graphics for the clock are also the clock but in binary. :hurr:

Looking forward to the TASBot run of Super Metroid tomorrow:

Why don't they just put all the consoles on some bubblewrap to cushion them from stomps and other slight bumps that might do this? The large bubble bubblewrap, one sheet would probably do.

Also Yo Noid 2 was legit really good.
