Honestly, get the fuck out of here Twitch. I'm disappointed in you rn

Let's talk about the @Twitch 100-Hour Highlight Limit and its impact on speedrunning. www.speedrun.com/news/k28oeo5...

Tidying the garage and I can never imagine a point in the near or far future where someone could possibly look at a PS3 and feel nostalgic

Anybody else have a couple old speedruns that are so bad you just say "yeah twitch go ahead and delete that when the deadline hits" or is that just a me thing?

If you're looking for a great tool for downloading any Twitch VODs/Highlights before the upcoming changes, I'd recommend TwitchLink - twitchlink.github.io

I just want to make sure folks understand how impactful this change from Twitch is to the speedrunning community PURELY from a historical archiving standpoint. (A 🧵) I run Lester the Unlikely, which has 14 total runners. Their last login dates to SRC from 1st place to last place are as follows:

I've been looking for Twitch to fail for years now and this might just start the ball rolling

Reminder to get the fuck off Twitter and Facebook

Always local record. Always back up your runs.

What a silly thing twitch did today...anyway enjoy any runs I did 4 years ago showing up on YT randomly

Speedrun friends be aware. I guess this mean RIP to all the Game Over Cancer collections/history on Twitch, as well as a portion of my own speedruns...

A 1989 ad for the North American release of Phantasy Star, an RPG for the Sega Master System Phantasy Star cast players as Alis, the sister whose brother was slain by those loyal to the wicked King Lassic. Teaming up with new friends, she will quest to free the Algol System from his rule!

I wrote about all the monsters Final Fantasy 1 "borrowed" from D&D, and how the series has largely dropped or obfuscated many of these, even if some (notably the Mindflayer) have endured, IP be damned. www.thrillingtalesofoldvideogames.com/blog/final-f...

12 years sober from MTG today

SRC 1:20:37 JP RTA 1:25:22 Maybe the bosses will behave better next time...

New Ys 3 SFC WR tonight. Crushed my old time

Happy Lupercalia

Happy Valentine's Day

This is your reminder to take a little walk or be outside if you can today. At least for a few deep breaths of fresh air. If not, have a little tea and detach from a screen. Brains were never meant to process so much info and we need to come up for a breath every once in awhile.

So it turns out in SNES/Super Famicom Ys 3, you can have a double KO with a boss and live through it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZrt...

Tonight's project will be to update and retime my splits for SFC Ys 3. There's way too many splits because they were also serving as my notes for how much level grinding to do, so I'm cutting those out. Also going to add an extra split at the end so both SRC and JP RTA times are tracked.

Getting by on a 14-13 vote is the same thing as passing a class with a D-

I wish there was a ‘I see you’ button. Sometimes I really, really don’t want to ‘like’ a serious or heart breaking post. But I do want to let people know they’ve been seen, their post has reach, it’s not just sitting in the void.
