    Just a heads-up: SpikeVegeta is hosting a mini-marathon this weekend called Speedrun Colosseum, benefitting Direct Relief. So far it's a much more subdued affair than GDQ, but features most of the presentation staff you know together on an actual couch, with incentives to screw with the current run somehow (like forcing a hand-off to a different runner for a level... and yhey appear to have improvised an "adef beats Bowser in every applicable game" meta-incentive). If GDQ's felt too corporate and stadiumy lately, you might enjoy this instead. It's up at twitch.tv/spikevegeta and runs through the weekend.

    The schedule is at https://www.directrelief.org/get-involved/gaming/speedrun-colosseum-2022/

    If speedruns of long games are your jam, RPG Limit Break is back as a weeklong event, after a 2-year hiatus due to COVID.

    There is a second game submission period for games released since the initial run submission period closed but before right about now. The empty slots are for those games.

    Oh nice Mario all stars shuffler with skybilz. That's going to be awesome.

    The ending seems a little meh though. Good games I guess, but doesn't seem quite as hype.

    They might have something more exciting planned as a donation incentive so not on the list? But they do list some donation incentive runs so who knows.

    It was a month ago, or a few decades.

    I wouldn't if I could, but you can't not see the vomit wave of sparkles and trains and whatever the hell Twitch is pushing through the chat.

    Very exciting

    During SGDQ last year I got the exercise bike out and was able to just enter a zone whilst watching runs, they're uniquely relaxing. Hoping for similar gains this year

    The "Collapse Chat" button is your friend, and the only way to watch a stream with more than 15 active chatters.

    52 minutes of unskippable cutscenes in a 2 hour 40 minute speedrun is a criminal act

    The winner of the SMG2 4-way race didn't just crush the opposition by 5+ minutes in a just under 3-hour race but also may have WR'ed by a few seconds.

    GAMING ZONE, indeed.

    Also, something like 2 PBs and 2 WRs during awfulblock and the block once again helps the marathon save time.

    GDQ banned Hogwarts Legacy from all streams. Not surprising considering the number of trans runners but still nice to see.
