Any other recommendations to catch up? I watched the Mario Maker race, the Tetris TGM demo, and the Super Meat Boy dark ending. Nothing else caught me eye.
The glitchless OoT run was really good, avoid super metroid since the race didn't have a good payoff. The surprise so far was the Bethesda block of the fallout and Oblivian games.
Going to skim through their videos for some other ones to recommend. - There were a couple Bad Games Done Quick with good commentary and couch interaction: The Rapid Angel, Crystal's Pony Tale, Super Amazing Wagon Adventure, and arguably Trine 3 - Catherine was really impressive whenever you remembered that the very good movement from both characters was being done by one person - The last half hour of the Pokemon Red race was much better than I was expecting - Despite not being Tetris, the Tetris Attack race was fairly good - Trials Fusion was a bit nuts - DKC: Tropical Freeze was a relay race and was pretty cool
Those were the ones I enjoyed from what I've watched so far.
I just remembered I watched the Catherine run live. That's why it wasn't in my YouTube history so I forgot about it. But yeah, very impressive as its a procedural puzzle game, not just memorizing moves.
I also watched part of the Tropical Freeze race, but didn't find it that interesting.
I watched a bit of this to see the drama. I was waiting for him to do something bad, but he didn't. At least not in the thirty seconds I could tolerate listening to such a YouTube shoutyman. Holy shit is that guy obnoxious. Shut the fuck up and talk about your run. You aren't funny. If I was king of GDQ I'd ban him for life just because I don't like him.
While I think it's silly for GDQ to decide to stop swearing from occurring in their event, I also understand it's partially pressure from the charities they are organizing for. Furthermore, it seems like everyone knew about this before GDQ occurred this year, as I heard people talking about it, so it's not like people weren't warned.
Also, they mention that he's only banned until 2018. So, ultimately, I think the ban is pretty fair.

I agree I much prefer the runs where the runner says "now we put the bucket over here like this and the credits run because of x, y, and z", but they should at least tell him why he was banned.

Yes. Everyone should be told why they are punished. How can they correct themselves otherwise?

Thinking about it though, a big part of why I like those kind of runs, and I would guess your reasoning is similar, is that I understand the jargon and enjoy seeing behind the scenes. If someone doesn't understand I can see where those runs would be boring.

It's the same guy who first got the credits warp by hand a while ago.
(Also, he made an Atari 2600 emulator in Minecraft. Wild.)
