The $20k donations (there were two of them) were both from The Yetee, one of the sponsors of the event: https://gamesdonequick.com/tracker/donor/864/sgdq2016

I want to know what DS Dad is playing

 

[vareon]

What a great bunch of people.

 

[Team Filler]

DS Dad still going, truly the most hype marathon runner at the show.

 

[Demption]

What were the higlights of this year?

 

[Velcro Fly]

What were the higlights of this year?

if you only watch one long run it should be jak and daxter

 

[Toki767]

They basically stopped doing bonus streams right?

 

[Wilsongt]

What were the higlights of this year?

Bonesaw Jak and Daxter run.

 

[KarmaCow]

Yea I think after it moved a bigger venue, they had a much more strict limit on when they had to get out.

 

[Speevy]

I missed the end of the Super Metroid race, but the guy who was in dead last place winning blew my mind.

Slow and steady wins the race.

 

[Delstius]

I didn't get to watch as much this year (yet!) because of work/Internet being down, but from what I saw:

• DKC:Tropical Freeze relay race - Canada vs USA
• Catherine - 1 player, 2 controllers
• Castlevania: SotN blindfolded
• Braid
• Disney block - lots of good, short games
• The Witness
• Super Mario Maker custom level race
• PEPSIMAAAAAAN
• Zelda: Ocarina of Time glitch exhibition (not the run itself)
• Super Mario World low% (runner is required to never pick up any power-ups or Yoshi)
• Super Metroid any% race -- you might have seen Super Metroid before, but this race doesn't go quite the way you might expect...

Add to that at least :
- Momodora
- Demon Crest
- Pokemon Blue Reverse Gym Order
- Tetris The Grandmaster
- Jak and Daxter

 

[Speevy]

If they don't get started soon I'm going to fall asleep.

 

[Interface23]

She's like straight ignoring Biinny

 

[serenewarfare]

Tetris TGM was the highlight for me. Those guys are absolutely crazy with how fast they can react and play.

 

[RagnarokX]

I miss bonus streams. They had that really epic F-Zero segment and that guy shaved his head after losing a bet.

 

[Death Metalist]

What were the higlights of this year?

I'd add Resident Evil 2 as well. I'd say Silent Hill 3 too but RE2 was better, both were by the same runner who was up for 40 something hours haha. Many great runs, as usual.

 

[RagnarokX]

Bonesaw Jak and Daxter run.

That was pretty good because the runner was like delirious or something.

 

[Xeteh]

What were the higlights of this year?

Catherine 1 player 2 controllers was my favorite. Bionic Commando was pretty good, same with Mario Maker and Pepsiman.

 

[TheChits]

Gosh I love this game. Such a good run to watch

 

[KingBroly]

How was the TASbot segment this time?

 

[jnWake]

The maze memes thanks to the 0.5A presses video crack me up.

 

[KarmaCow]

How was the TASbot segment this time?

The only segment that was kinda interesting to watch was the single controller, all NES Mario games one and that was more in concept since the inputs actually being displayed on screen eventually got desynced due to the nature of the games. Nothing really crazy to watch like past years.

 

[Delstius]

How was the TASbot segment this time?

Kinda meh for most of it. The 4 Mario NES games 1 controller is amazing tho.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

if you only watch one long run it should be jak and daxter

Bonesaw Jak and Daxter run.

Very yes. So fucking entertaining from start to finish.

 

[Death Metalist]

How was the TASbot segment this time?

Started out boring but ended pretty good. It doesn't top last year though and I don't know what they would do to do so but I'll be there to see.

 

[boclfon479]

this 1000000%

 

[Velcro Fly]

[CassSept]

That's incredible time for a marathon, no?

 

[BreezyLimbo]

But I'm watching Zoolander

And Owen Wilson says 'Wooow' lol

That Jak and Daxter Run was great

 

[Velcro Fly]

That's incredible time for a marathon, no?
