#Million4Mario?
Why would they? Take this money. It's not like the kid who gets treated for burn wounds with that money is going to know the guy who donated it is a jerk.

listen to the mad man
well he's fresh off a year of boycotting them and trashing them because ??? twitch bits exist and so ???? gdq is bad?????
I am. I made a summary of the first few days but I'm going to do another one tomorrow! Love GDQ! Rooting for team Birdo in the race right now, I'm a huge Darbian fan and also like POObear!

2.2 million~ on this year's AGDQ
Notch is an idiot, but if he wants to donate money, let him. It's the minimum least he can do for being a bigoted (rich) asshole. The people receiving the money are not affected by his stupid twitter antics so lets not pretend the money isnt worth it because its coming from him - money is money and money helps charity. He's not getting credit as a good samaritan for this and this is already good enough.
alright then. i take my statement back. good, i guess.

AGDQ is bigger than SGDQ, and this year's AGDQ raised $2.2 million, which was the record. Something like almost a million of that came during the final day. Undertale was a fantastic choice for a closer.

What in the, I had to look this up. What strange reason to not donate to them....Notch is a odd man.
Also Poobear is awesome. Started watching him after his speech in AGDQ this year.
I mean, yeah, he's weird and crappy, but it's still not a reason to refuse a donation.

I think the hype of getting near 2 million also drove a lot of last minute donations as well

It ain't GDQ's money- Doctors Without Borders probably doesn't give a damn if a man child throws a fit one year and gives them 10k the next. That's money's baby
This is bugging me, too. A race should be uniform throughout.
That said, eh, it's for charity man.
It raised what it did because it had an absolutely stupid raffle grand prize, mostly donations from Namco, included a PS4 Pro I think.

I dislike pretty much everything about Super Mario All Stars. It looks bad and sounds bad.

Said some mean words on Twitter.
Which he has done every gdq for the last few years iirc.
Advocated violence http://www.neogaf.com/forum//showthread.php?t=1399164
Not really. He boycotted Twitch and GDQ for a year so he made no donation in that time.

Heinous stuff, for sure, no sarcasm. But the people MSF would be helping don't have the privilege to care about Notch's Twitter rants.
Oh right. During the same timeframe he ended up donating 40k directly to doctors without borders instead of via sgq.
He has donated large sums of money to various things over the years though.
It's quite close though!

Zero chance it was from undertale. It was all from that massive Namco donation reward that was added the last day. From the minute it was announced, donations poured in.
Birdo has gained ~25 seconds in this game so far, and are only ~35 seconds behind now.
It's definitely not over.

It's absolutely a shame that Sven choked so hard on Wort.
Only about 13 seconds apart now.
His Wart segment wasn't that bad, even though he lost time, He was already behind by the time he got there, partly because he lost time just trying to start SMB2, it hard locked the first time and the second he didn't start right away because the video was fucked up.
