Speedrunning Thread (Take 2) - GOTTA GO FAST

I worded that really terribly. I meant in terms of the momentum of donations from the average joes donating the same way they did since the oldest GDQs. I'm pretty sure they have been losing it pretty bad and the only thing that can "fix" it for them is a sudden surge of people who don't know what a scam and snoozefest it's going to be.

I don't see that happening, either. Everyone who'd watch GDQ already knows about it, and their viewership hasn't dramatically grown in years. Battle royale games imported a fuckton of new users to Twitch but I doubt that audience is interested in speedrunning.

I like how people are arguing that its wrong for people to be removed on moral issues unrelated to speedrunning while arguing that Goose should be banned over the "Jewish Question"...

all the while ignoring that whole thing about Child porn.

That time was restored? Great. I stopped watching Goose's videos after I heard about it.

edit: And it turns out he hasn't made any since then either, guess he's been keeping his head low.

I mean, it’s such a milquetoast opinion to ban someone over. Especially when his conclusion is a decently valid one.

At an aggregate level, there are many systemic differences between men and women. However, we focus on the individual, not the aggregate, to ensure that individuals are not withheld opportunities based on the circumstances of their birth.

If anything, he should be chided for coming to the same conclusion a nine year old would when presented with gender differences.

The runners act the same now as they did from the first AGDQ, I have seen every single event and anyone who tells you otherwise is full of shit.
****
People acting like human trash basically made it impossible for AGDQ to control their own chat, so they made it sub only. But the only way I can have fun is screaming racist bullshit in chat, so event ruined. #nofunallowed.... what do you mean they allow hosting the stream in other chats?

GDQ totally hasn't changed at all, if you disagree you are HUMAN TRASH.

Thanks, reddit.

Both Goose and Apollo are fucking cancerous right now. I used to respect Goose for his talent in one of my favorite games, but to see him try and play a game of save face when he's been BOMBASTICALLY vocal about his distaste for GDQ on his streams is just ridiculous. Apollo is no saint either, what with the whole drama of 'fuk u gaiz imma make my own gdq with beaches and free speech", then just silently dipping after that for the better part of a year.

Goose constantly rants about the "degeneracy of speedrunning" while actively propagating it with his own behaviors, and by defending the behavior of his friends like Apollo.

Found out on a Discord that someone was banned in the GDQ chat for using the emotes of the guy running Castlevania II at the event. Imagine paying $5 to post emotes of the guy you are watching to support and being banned for it?

Can of course provide screens if needed. Tell me why people support this horse shit again?

Anyone know of a mirror stream of GDQ? Too much 'tism in the chat of the official stream.

Or maybe that's just part of the experience.
