Awesome Games Done Quick 2016: January 3rd - 10th.

I'm continually dumbfounded at how good these guys are at Punch Out. I've seen the blindfolded runs and I'm still not sure how it happens.
 
well he used to work and help with GDQ and now he's not, all we know is they fired/kicked him out.

saying banned is the wrong word really.

I'm not sure how this makes any sense and if this is real I really wonder what happened. Romscout works for Twitch and his official title on Twitter is Charity Event Manager.

Perhaps what you meant maybe is they just asked him to handle more of the marathons internal workings because he now is involved monetarily instead of just a volunteer or something to that effect?
 
These people in the audience though

Zallard looks great these days, remember his blindfolded run, hes lost a decent chunk of weight.
 
Anyone else catch the Lagoon run last night? Game looked boring as sin, but the commentary seemed pretty hilarious.

Might've just enjoyed it because I was sleep deprived...

If it's a PJ run it's worth watching.

Meanwhile I actually like Zallard's SPO run more than Sinister's because it has a couple tougher tricks with shorter time frames to hit them.
 
That old man is dead.

Also fuck him for using a stick in a boxing match. Who lets this shit slide? Boxing commission should be fucking investigated.
 
It amazaes me every time what these people know about the games they're playing here.

Comes with repetition and knowing what to look for, I guess. A lot of them also know or know somebody who knows who to dig through the game's files or check out its code in emulator to find the crazier stuff. The punch out crew is a lot of different people, though zallard and sin are the main runners, for the most part.

sockfolder is one of the more well known glitch finders and often streams it. he's found stuff for OOT and SOTN, and all kinds of others.
 
They seemed to skip past his SPO overall time. I usually like to hear their reactions since I don't know how to gauge it. Wonder how they felt about that.
 
Time for that blind race, this is a first for GDQ I think, racing and playing blind that is.

uh nah punch out blindfolded is a classic
there's also been some blindfold exhibitions in the past (namely DoT skip in OoT)

unless you mean first blindfolded race ever, maybe, probably
