Speedrunning Thread (Take 2) - GOTTA GO FAST

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
Honestly at this point the best thing to do is to not even acknowledge the drama and the shit show. Because that is all this is and all the trannies want. They want to stir shit/make pity, and the people that sub to GDQ to just shitpost some nothing statement ("GRRRRR GDQ A DUMB AND PROTOMAGICAL """GRLL""" A DUMB!") and get nuked are enabling in so many ways. I have no doubt PMG or one of his friends regularly checks his thread to see the shit being stirred.
almost as if people who are obsessed with identity politics care more about "gotcha" and "gib money" and "pity me" than whatever hobby they are currently infesting.
betcha half of these troons wouldn't be speedrunning or playing games if vidya wasn't so popular.

Go watch NASA or ESA or any of the other starting groups. They may not be as large or have the production value but they at least try to have fun.

When NASA was doing their recent Halloween stream the streamer was shit posting with chat about candy corn saying it was "Cum flavored wax" and saying anyone who liked it had shit taste in a fun shitposty manor. You will never see anything that genuine or fun at GDQ anymore.
i've heard of ESA but not NASA, what is that?

The whole 'random bow in hair because girls do that, right?' with zero understanding of style is possibly one of the most offensive things I've seen in this thread.
why dress like how women actually dress when you can dress like a stereotype
so progressive

Zero effort falsetto, garbage narration, playing a game that requires no technical skill, and spends a segment of their commentary talking about pronouns. Why is this not a joke?
have i mentioned that i'm left handed, anyway i'm a left handed person.. and as a left handed person please don't use the word sinister *gets 25 people banned* i like to play video games, as a leftie i face a lot of oppression, donate money please
 
NASA's name was a parody of ESA's, it was an event where a few speedrunners got together and ran their own uncensored event last year. Not sure if it was a one-off or not. You should look up the Far Cry 3 run they had, it was an amazing train-wreck with a game not fit for speed-running, the commenter reading out speed-runner fan fiction and what the runner claims to be a world record.

They have a lady from the charity doing damage control and answering questions. A lot of the answers to some very pertinent questions such as "what do international donations go towards to help other countries" are complete non-answers or redirect the question in general.

This past year's NASA was the second one. Their whole gimmick was that they didn't like how shitty and overproduced GDQ became so they'd do their own with blackjack and hookers to relive the old days. Wound up being a trainwreck, but an entertaining trainwreck. It was refreshing to see people actually having fun and saying what they wanted, even if there were constant issues.

The bit here where they get her to create a handle is one of the cringiest things I've ever seen on a stream.

My only source is a /v/ thread, so take it with much salt, but in 2017 AGDQ's funds that did reach PCF were primarily blown on nonsense. I believe the foundation's owner keeps 5% of all donations as salary, and only around 13% had gone to cancer research. The remainder was spent on PCF staff and awareness campaigns, because you know, people haven't heard about cancer.

I'll look for that image in the archives and add it to this post.
EDIT: Here's their 990 tax form. From my glancing over it:
In 2016, the PCF raised 6,413,454. They paid out:
  • 2,457,184 on employees (Including $345,818 for their CEO and $226,132 for the VP),
  • $1,236,744 on charity (research and outreach combined).
    • That $1,236,744 breaks down to $621,134 in actual itemized research grants and the remainder in outreach donations (awareness donations to organizations).
  • They also paid $122,406 in advertising
  • $87,818 in audio, $83,405 in software
  • $83,044 in catering, and $491,903 in "other expenses".
So, around 10% went to actual grants, and the two women in charge, not counting any other employees, pocket just about as much on their own.
I'll upload the tax form somewhere since it's 45 pages of PDF.
