Lol, this ledge has us well and truly stuck and I though that the safari zone would
be bad.
It really is. Especially noticeable when trying to get Red through a door.
The twitch chat/stream delay thing is dumb.
I'm not really familiar with Twitch, does that mean only people who paid 4.99 dollars could watch the stream?

Everyone could watch, only subscribers could input.
I can't believe how much of a goldmine it is.
Apparently, it depends on the owner of the stream. He could allow only suscribers to be able to enter commands and still allowing anyone to watch.
He doesn't want to give anything special to suscribers, though. For the better, I'd say.
This answers all of your questions:

There's THREE trainers and indeed, a ledge. And even if they manage to pass all this, they could still lose to a random encounter before accessing the pokemon center and start over.
Yeah, I fully expect them to still be at that spot tomorrow after I had a good nights sleep
The chance of them getting through both ledges AND not dying to a trainer battle seems like... in the 0.0000001% range.

I think we should take a break. Go to the pokemon center and maybe do a few random battles. People are going to burn themselves out.
Cool.

Good, this'll either happen by pure luck or when everyone gets bored of trying.
That would be for the best actually. Have them give up, get the number back to <5000 and it might actually be doable.
You want that several thousands people agree on a strategical change ? ^_^
I agree it would be a good decision, but I don't see it happen before at least a defeat against one of the trainers following the ledge.
Alright, thanks for these clarifications!
Yeah, I think it's best to keep things like they are now. I want the most people possible to take a (small) part of this run.

Well not like I expect anything to happen.
We'll lose to either a random encounter or one of the trainers. After this part.

Watching the Gold stream, and it's refreshing just how much progress is being made in comparison to the eternal ledge.
Is it possible to just watch it?

Its a less interesting social experiment though.

Wait there's streams with other games than Pokémon Red?
EDIT: Just saw the link. Only 150 people playing isn't the same challenge.

Imagine the Emerald Rayquaza maze
and can we have links to other game streams
and screw ledges

This ledge is just the training for the future boss.
Not only do they have to go left all those tiles, they have to not overshoot pressing down or they gotta walk around all over again.
I want to cry.
It's inevitable, he has to take over sometime.

So blurry! He should really choose a different upscaling method

Do they have any plan at all for the Safari Zone? I see no way around the step counter.

Yeah, at this point the downs are mostly just trolls. Stream probably won't get past that point until tonight when the trolls sleep.
And knowing this stream I fully expect them to spend days on this ledge and then run through rock tunnel in one go.

He's most likely going to take over for that part.

I read elsewhere that the person running the stream might end up modifying the game so that the step counter won't be an issue.
Its just the start, check the map above. 3 trainers AND another one of those ledges. Even if they happen to get past this, they'll likely need to get past this a few more dozen times.
Edit it the link better out. Seems like I should have asked, the tons of new players seem to break this one, too.
Sorry, shouldnt have asked, its my fault

There was just a string of like 30 rights. Where was that earlier chat?
Yeah you're right, but those can be pretty managable. It seems like the most people want a good outcome, but with a ledge like this a single troll can fuck it all up. I just hope they survive those two trainers, if they do they're hopefully set.

So close
The second ledge is the more critical thing. If they need 1000 tries to get past this ONCE, and they need 1000 tries to get past the second ledge, then they might be able to make it in their 1,000,000th try.
