Awesome Games Done Quick 2015: Speedrunning For Charity - January 4th - 10th
- Thread starter TUSR
- Start date
Not to lessen your hype, but no blindfolded Punch Out this year, after last year's once-in-a-million runs, but Sinister and Zallard should both put on an equally amazing show while they can see.
As for me, I generally always have a speedrunning stream open if I'm on a computer, so I will be watching this pretty much whenever I'm not sleeping this week. Should be amazing the whole way through. I do have to skip the DKCTF run though, because I want to play the game at some point without being spoiled.
Been watching a bunch of the runs I missed the last two years on YT the last couple of days. The 2 guys 1 controller runs are always amazing, especially the Contra III run.
The Yetee just tweeted this out. The AGDQ shirts are ready to buy http://www.theyetee.com/agdq

Im really liking this years schedule, lots of runs that I want to see. SGDQ was great as usual but it did seem to have more obscure games than usual.
Yeah. My schedule is going to be totally wrecked this time around. There are so many good games being run I want to see that come on day and night.

Im just going to watch as many as I can and then try and catch up through the twitch archives in the sections im not interested. Thankfully I actually have all next week off work so I'll be able to watch as much as possible.

So glad Pro_JN was able to sort out his flight. He's gonna massacre Zelda 2.

You're looking at the wrong schedule. They're starting with DKCTF, a solo run.

OPS, thanks for that. I was looking on the couch commetators.

If a game isn't in AGDQ it's usually in a summer GDQ instead.
Save the Animals one changes to Kill the Animals in the dark, so awesome lol.

Apparently there's going to be pinball speedrunning at the event, to be streamed at http://twitch.tv/pinballjoe.
That's pretty neato.

We need to start treating speedrunners with the same respect athletes get. They both play games but to be honest it probably takes more discipline and skill to become good at speedrunning since it's more competitive.

Are you just trying to start something because I can't see what other reason your post has.
Who are you talking to?

Can't wait! I'll definitely be more proactive this time around when it comes to donating.

Is it a 100% run? I've watched two YouTubers play through the entire game but never finish the final level because they kept saying "Well, now we need to get all the stars and stamps and flagpole tops so we'll come back later" and never do. (I'm looking at you, GameGrumps and Dashie)

It's the finale so there's a good chance many people will already watch it, but everybody needs to check out ZFGs run of OoT 100%. There's a hundered glitches being abused in ridiculous ways every minute and ZFG pulls them of with a crazy consistencey which makes it a real joy to watch. He'll also do nice commentary with Runnerguy, Cosmo and Pheeno on the couch.

Too bad my boy Spikevegeta isn't doing DKCTF or running any game for that matter. One of the cooler runners I started following after AGDQ last year. Atleast Naeglaria is running a game, although I seem to be the only person who likes him lol.

Surprised no one has mentioned his name yet. That's Blueglass, idk if he's running a game this year but he usually runs Ecco the Dolphin. But he's more known for being at almost every run. I don't know if he's talked about it himself but it seems like when he finally does go to sleep he seems to do it during more popular blocks and ends up at a lot of the lesser known runs. He's become a sort of celebrity during the event, unfortunately starting out as a joke, but now he's generally well loved by chat and runners alike.

Here's the french re-stream for the OT: http://www.twitch.tv/officiel_jvcom/
It's hosted by MisterMV, speedrunner and all-around funny guy. The games will be commented by French speedrunners and/or people who knows the game.
Here's the french schedule with the commentators: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...clJXbXRlQjBKMEE&single=true&gid=0&output=html

Aww, maaan!
No Goat Simulator this year. Should have been a setup game.
At least we get Escape Goat (and Shovel Knight!)

Wait, what do you mean? Are the sizes like not accurate to typical shirt sizes?

Champion Road was a donation incentive. He flies through it after the main any% run.
If you had just clicked on the link and looked at the YouTube description, you would've seen that. It even has clickable timestamps...

Has anyone from the UK bought any of the t-shirts before? I always want to but ive no interest in getting hit by import charges and I know some sites are better than others when it comes to stuff like that.
Diablohead

with postage I think it ends up being about £12-£14, i order one nearly every event and never had customs charge on top.

Thats not bad at all then thanks, I think I'll finally get one.

Not from the UK so this might be wrong, but I think everything below £15 is free of customs charge?
