Snake Rattle 'n' Roll - Co-Op Warpless World Record - 12:33. I don't think @chessjerk.bsky.social or I will try to tell you this is a good run. It's just good enough. That's enough Snek for now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4s9...

Well, after downloading and deleting most of my highlights over 3 hours, I'm barely under 100 hours. Still, I can't imagine how everyone out there with thousands (or tens of thousands) of hours of content will save it all. Hopefully we can save everything in time.

What do old people do on Valentines Day? They play Scrabble of course! Happy Valentines Day to my wife and to everyone else out there. (I won 344-278 but that doesn't matter right now)

After four hours of practice and grinding, @chessjerk.bsky.social and I finished two warpless Snek runs. We weren’t able to keep pace with PJ & Feasel’s rather remarkable warpless GDQ run from ten years ago. Maybe next time! We definitely CAN beat that time! www.twitch.tv/videos/23704...

Reflections: The cruelty of the final climb in 10 justified my introduction about how difficult the game is. I was caught out of position on the respawns a couple of times, and recovery isn’t easy on those slopes! @chessjerk.bsky.social was, as ever, cool and collected. youtu.be/1gGFYeX1jU4?...

I cannot articulate in 300 characters all of the emotions I'm feeling. I will just continue to be an ally to my friends that I love so much to the best of my ability. If anyone needs someone to talk to, to yell to/at/with, anything at all, anyone who can see this: just know that I'm here if needed

Sorry I didn’t stream all week. I had jury duty 4/5 days and plenty of work waiting for me when I got home as well. Expect a co-op stream with chessjerk tonight, though!

NES Elevator Action one loop "required" a 14 minute wait to complete because level 4 was too hard, and the enemies' speed would eventually overflow back to the starting speed. However, I proved that this was not the case! (and yes the final split is -12 minutes) www.twitch.tv/chessjerk/cl...
