    Not everyone has a little sibling, sometimes you have to teach the dog to play Luigi

    I think they mean Luigi Mario, brother of Mario Mario, they’re the Mario bros… Plumbers.

    Is it really an awful games block without authorblues and friends?

    The idea that your vote is a moral statement about you or who you vote for is some backwards ass libertarian nonsense. Your vote is about society. Vote to protect the vulnerable.

    Yeah I’m pretty sure it’s one of the “fun” things they do just to keep things running overnight. Lotta gimmicks in the late hours. The few lan parties I went to in the before days were always like that too, like “hey everyone awake play this weird thing we found”

    Oh? I wonder how I caught them previously then. The vods take forever to get uploaded but I'm positive I've seen it while the show was still on.

    You have to assume a certain amount of schedule slippage; that frequently pushes Awful Block into a more manageable morning time for the East Coast.

    My favorite musical instrument is the air-raid siren.

    That's absolutely true. For some reason I forgot about that.

    It's 5 degrees (F) out. I'm ready to hunker down and enjoy some runs.

    I like all the FF5 stuff in the stores for this event. If that run is anywhere near as good as ff14 was last event that's gonna be SO GOOD

    Tunic was such a wonderful run and a great way to start this thing.

    It's an amazing game, was entertaining to see just how fast they broke it. And how badly they destroyed the boss fights.

    Now, having said that, there is some irony in them being (as of this writing) a full half-hour ahead of schedule, using "The Checkpoint" to fill space before the scheduled start time of the next run. Granted that it's still the first half of day one, but that dual-stage setup is at least paying off so far.

    ya they finally went to a dual stage, which people have been talking about for ages but they always said wasn't feasible.

    i think the last few shows being like, half a day behind really forced their hand.

    There's still... what, 45+ minutes? It could speed up near the end, they'll probably promote it more.

    One thing that's always fun to watch live: Typing of the Dead run where the chat is trying to match all the phrases to be typed out, like all the people of earth giving Goku energy for a spirit bomb
