I'm sick and I'm about to start 12 hours of streaming games, so I'm fueling this AM with @tacobell and @MountainDew.

This is already exciting.

 

[daydream]

sf stream coming up

spin up the meme machine

This is already exciting.

Beautiful mess confirmed.

This is already exciting.

I wonder whose tweet that is.

 

[danm999]

So eating all that whilst being sick Dan is going to shit his pants on camera and holy shit did Jeff Green use this week's Bombcast to prove he's a time traveller?

 

[TraBuch]

I used to laugh when people went out and bought all that fast food and then got a diet soda, then I discovered that I actually like the taste of most diet sodas more than the regular versions.

Genius

I'd give $100 if he puked on camera

 

[HappenstanceUK]

Still seems a bit of a cop out that some of them are only doing 12 hours. I mean its not exactly hard.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

I wonder if Vinny will play games with Max.

Vinny seems like a good dad so he will not subject his son to the internet

 

[kAmui-]

While Jeff does this

Based on what Brad says it sounds like they flat out can't do 24 hours with how many reviews and things are going on atm. Messing up their sleep schedules isn't something they can risk.

And you CAN'T... TEACH... THAT!

Sounds like it's the only option unless a lot of the guys just didn't do it. It's ok though, we're still getting near 24 hours of the most important stream.

When I was in SF I specifically sought out a TacoBell cause Dan keeps talking about it (and they don't have it here in Austria) and it was the grossest thing I ate in a long time. It was cold, the cheese wasn't melted it was just a disgusting thing all around. I imagine I just went to a bad place.

He's supposed to get better when he eats that so I am expecting him to be all well during the stream.

You did. A cold Taco Bell just sounds like the worst thing ever.

Yup. The first and only time I ate Taco Bell, I got sick.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Honestly, I hate watching people get deliriously tired. I prefer the shorter streams for each individual. I always stop watching when you can tell the person is struggling to stay conscious. It just seems like I'm watching a person suffer.

 

[MassiveNights]

Yeah, like when an alcoholic gets better with the first drink of the day!

 

[danm999]

Is Del Taco considered sub Taco Bell?

I had that once at Barstow and boy did I get the liquid shits the next day.

 

[Patryn]

Honestly, what are the odds that even if they did a 24-hour stream you'd watch all of it?

What are the odds you'd even watch 12 hours of it?

Both are a dirty race up shit mountain in my opinion.

 

[Lelcar]

That on its own is fine, what is strange to me is that Dave Lang is doing 24 hours while everyone employed at the actual website (besides Drew) is only doing 12-16 hours max. That's when I'm like, what?

Drew is a true patriot.

100%, what am I a casual? We're the weird GB fans remember?

archives, yo

although i really do like this year's schedule so i'm not complainin'

also, i watched most of the 24h sf stream two years ago, took a nap during the halo segment

I watched all 24 hours live one year... so odds are high. Would not do it nowadays though.

Del Taco is okay, but packs less flavor. It also has bean burritos that taste like cement. It's a worse Taco Bell despite being more expensive.

 

[MassiveNights]

I'm sure Jeff & Brad are reviewing games and shit, Vinny has kids, Jason JUST had a baby, Austin is doing a PHD.

I think it's cool they're managing to get 4 days done between them.

Saying streaming solo for 12 hours is easy is insane and really fucking entitled!

 

[Fantastapotamus]

Did you guys expect a week of constant streaming or something?

 

[giant_frying_pan]

12 hours streaming constantly for charity is 12 hours more constantly streaming for charity that I and many others are not doing! Give em a break...!

I've watched every hour of their extra life stuff. I can put it on in the background while I play video games too.

Seriously though, GB is doing 50+ hours of streaming for this event. How can anyone be unhappy with that...

 

[Hindl]

Austin's stream sounded awesome I'm gonna have to go back and check it out. Still, I'm more pumped about having SF carry me through my Friday workday

 

[danm999]

Here we go SF stuff woooo.

 

[RepairmanJack]

Good, Dan is in his own room the whole time. The way he should be!

 

[HappenstanceUK]

I think its because I also do Extra Life, I think this year will be my 6th or maybe 7th and the whole point of it is to get donations for doing 24 hours of gaming. Its supposed to be hard and make it actually worth donating to.

Of course as a Giant Bomb fan I'm not going to complain that im getting a 12 hour stream full of GB goodness and I understand the reasons they gave for only wanting to do 12 hours. It just feels a bit of a cop out as I said before.

I think you guys are missing the point where most of the guys are having reviews to attend to especially with big, notable titles launching in a few days.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

Austin did a fantastic job. Unfortunately I missed a pretty big chunk of the stream starting from Invisible Inc until like the last quarter of Tales from the Borderlands, I'll definitely be checking out the archive once this whole nightmare is over.

Should've been 60+. Will not donate.

He needs to be alone with his Taco Bell.

 

[RepairmanJack]

Did I hear Patrick?

 

[Patryn]

Oh god. Sounds like Drew and Jason aren't in the office today.

Of course they're still doing the livestreaming by the seat of their pants.

 

[LiK]

GB guys should sacrifice their whole life to entertain us.

 

[HappenstanceUK]

Just heard Rorie so this stream is already ruined for me (yes I know you all love him but I just cant stand him, this will be the last time I moan though so I dont annoy you all )

More like wrestling every day.

I don't dislike him, but I usually think he's weird on live streams. That being said he was great on the podcast the last couple weeks.

 

[giant_frying_pan]

He's just gonna kiss the posters in there.

 

[Patryn]

Jeff's shirt is freaking me out.

 

[HappenstanceUK]

Extra Life is a 24 hour gaming marathon. They are only doing 12 hours. Its not a massive stretch to complain a bit.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

Jeffs shirt is amazing
