MAIN EVENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy crap I love this game

 

[Velcro Fly]

good chance that save/kill hits 200k before this is decided.

it's why this game is at like every marathon. it is the bid war to end all bid wars

[Kid Ska]

Here we goooooo

 

[bon]

Super Metroid the greatest of sports

 

[Blackquill]

FUCKING HYPE MAN

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Says you! I fully expect two world records one after the other!

technically isn't it possible to only get one world record

 

[Coonce]

800K daaaaaayum

 

[emb]

They asked about world record, so for reference:
http://deertier.com/Leaderboard/OneHundredPercent

These guys are ranked 4 and 5.

 

[dmr87]

I miss Zoast.

edit - looks like he's commentating on his own channel

 

[MisterLuffy]

I'll just watch SM race later.

 

[Kid Ska]

Comeback!

 

[one_kill]

That was great

 

[Velcro Fly]

Money is really flowing in already. 10k almost since this run started.

Would love to see a million on the tracker but I'm not sure.

Remember last year so many on twitter were pushing hard for the million in the waning hours. Today not quite that same thing.

 

[Revven]

THE COMEBACK

 

[emb]

The quick kill is so hard to time for me. I've never been able to get it once.

 

[Omnicent]

I only watched the Let it Go one, but unfortunately her voice is so flat it's hard to listen to Then again, I'm probably pickier about this stuff than most.

she was losing her voice (she said a much before hand), so that is probably why.
She said that ,buut said she would still give it a try

The trick where you roll under the platforms in that lava room really irritated me when I first tried speedrunning SM because I could never get it. I would later learn that it's impossible in PAL copies of the game

Oh jeez. Yeah, speedrunning SM on PAL is almost a completely different beast from NTSC. due to all the various differences between the two versions.

"This is causing the missile to loop around at the end of the room and hit the door before it is revealed"

YOU A GATDAM WITCH!!

On the plus side, the Bomb Torizo skip (whereby you manage to leave the room before the door closes) is just possible on a PAL console, but impossible outside of TAS on NTSC. Doesn't really make up for how crippled the PAL version is but it's pretty cool regardless!

 

[emb]

We EVEN now.

 

[Sesha]

Guy on the right looks like DJ Qualls lol

 

[Kyou]

I hope it stays this close this is amazing

 

[Bumhat]

Was about to say the health management is making me a little nervous given Phantoon is a nightmare, but then I remembered this is a 100% run and they each have a reserve tank. It should be ok! Probably!

EDIT: SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!

They'll get it.

90 minutes of OoT blindfolded and 5 hours of OoT 100%? I expect at the very least $50-75k to be raised during those runs. At minimum, they'll probably be at $950k before the bonus stream starts and I'm sure they'll be able to make up the rest tomorrow.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

What a day.

Patriots win, still have another good playoff game and chilling out watching a race on Super Metroid.

 

[dmr87]

Don't forget blindfolded OoT after this.

 

[Kid Ska]

Oh shit

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Poor Epic.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

RIP Epic

 

[Niraj]

That sucks

 

[BigAT]

Oof...

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

welp, this blows

 

[robotrock]

 

[Kyou]

race over D:

 

[Pappasman]

dead race

 

[SamuraiX-]

Did this race just get decided before the half hour mark?

Wow.

Fucking brutal.

 

[Kadin]

Shit... that completely sucks.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

It couldn't have possibly been as hype as last year

but now it just blows

 

[NotLiquid]

Ouch. That has to suck. Condolences to Epic ):

 

[Yaboosh]

He should do an any % run.

 

[TheSlySoul]

Well Epic lost...

 

[Escalario]

So much for the race...

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Restart race, cmon

 

[KarmaCow]

Oh man what a shame.

 

[Xeteh]

Well that is a bummer.

 

[Kid Ska]

This is a bummer

 

[emb]

XD

That sucks. Probably the biggest blooper I've seen at a GDQ. Should have done a 4 way again I guess.

 

[Finalow]

oh well, the race is now over.
