Speedrunning Thread / Speedrunner Community - GOTTA GO FAST

MSF is going to take another one of CoolMatty's limbs if they can't get these numbers up.

Watched a couple more as I was cooking last night, Isopod had lots of FASCISM talk and PaperMario was when it finally became troonecentral for a while bcause of Vivian and their weird thing about Wario being nonbinary rep.

It's weird going from an autist game with no troon donos to hypergiga troon, but maybe that's a positive about fatigue reaching critical heights. Even some runs with troons at the helm haven't been nearly as troonfocused.
 
GDQ staffer carrarium is having a melty over on bluesky because people on reddit are not enjoying SGDQ2026 and viewership is down....

and because those evil chuds on reddit are complaining that top speedrunners don't attend anymore. What's wrong with 11th place on the leaderboard speedrunning a meme category for a game you've never heard of?!? MOVE. 👏 ON. 👏

Not a good look for GDQ when their social media manager is screeching on bluesky about how the audience is wrong about what they do or don't enjoy. That is not going to help declining viewer numbers.
 
Speaking of viewership, I saw this infograph online, claims over 60 percent loss since 2020. They'll claim covid but you'd think viewership would go back up after lockdown years, but we know why.

GDQstats seems to agree even with only 2025's info.

Carrarium made a post last year about how they're mainly focusing on Bluesky. No wonder viewership is down lol

I assume this post is one he's complaining about. Seems like a valid complaint.

Subtle way to say the chuddies aren't allowed

Point made on reddit? Tranny tries to get a gotcha

I've seen a lot more but this post is long enough!
 
Really interesting how the level of LGBT representation seems to directly correlate with the amount of sexual misconduct allegations. Curious. Fascinating.
Its funny to me the amount of money GDQ seems to take from donations over giving to the represented charity, where your actual donations go to a troon job program.
I wouldn't really care about them fleecing donation money if runs were atleast fun to watch. Everyone worth watching, for cringe or talent are all almost 10 years old now.

This is my all time favorite run
 
Doublepost but I checked out the Crash 4 run. They edited the PC version so they can say TRANSRIGHTS everytime it shows up on signage.

Not just Crash 4, it seems like they're modding a lot of games to show that (which probably renders them as invalid for speedrun.com leaderboards, if they were lucky enough to get a PB/WR)

>Man these runs just aren't as interesting as they used to be, it's like they're not even focusing on the games anymore...
>btw I am still a proud supporter, $100 for TRANS RIGHTS!

"why doesn't anyone like us and why does our viewership keep going down???"

I'll never forgive these niggers for ruining one of the best yearly doses of genuine autism in action, no one wants to watch trannies
 
I like how this dumb retard is complaining about feedback that he is ASKING FOR because its not the "right" kind of feedback, e.g. "ummm next year can we just rename the show to Transrights Done Transrights 2027" and is instead valid criticism from people who've checked out but still have the kindness to tell them what's wrong.

They're not "still mad about Bonesaw" you daft motherfucker, they're upset that the atmosphere that led to his dismissal is not only still in effect its been amplified. Viewership is down event after event. These people are telling you why and you worthless fucking idpol faggots think changing the pronoun font from 24px to 27px will bring people back on board.

GDQ's fake/astroturfed donations are becoming harder to hide with the number of real people dropping year after year. They run all these extra mini events that literally no one cares about or even watches and despite being "in" the public eye year-round viewership is tanking. Read the writing on the wall dumbasses.

Jesus fucking Christ, they went that far with it? I thought there was a rule that you couldn't modify the actual games or use anything other than physical (for console stuff at least), but yeah, guess that's gone in service of gobbling down the girlcock. As if there isn't enough of that shit already. You know what just burn the whole thing down and start over.

A lot of rules are glossed over for their genderspecials. If a troon SA's someone there, they cover it all up so this is nothing. That Crash run can be run on a console, but I'm sure the reason they picked PC was for that specifically.

I have never followed GDQ that closely, and I know it has been trannyinfested for a long time now, but the number of genderspecials must still have exploded in the later years...?

It seems that they try their best to at least have a "they" on the couch for every run.
A not minor portion of staff are troons now and they keep giving priority tranny commentators and to weird short niche speedruns which troons submit. Like in my post above someone tried to defend it by saying there's been three world records this year, but it's all troonslop no one plays, not like a big Zelda game or anything with packed leaderboards.

Refusing to put any high competition or longer games also drives away anyone who hasn't been blacklisted for being a chud, and the runners who look like normal autists have a 50/50 shot at being a furry now, so you have to avoid anything with animal mascots lest there's howling going on. With Games Done Queer (real event btw) coming back, it's only a matter of time before even those holdouts are driven out.
 
It actually drives me nuts that there are actual problems with the event and they won't do anything about it except to go "erm I guess you hate trannies then chud??"

"I think the hosts should be chosen based on technical skill and teaching ability, I feel like that hasn't been prioritized much recently"

"OH MY GOD WHY DO YOU HATE TRANS PEOPLE"

Even then, they'll mod the console game if it's possible, like with Wii Sports. The fact they even ran that is really questionable, might as well openly admit "Yeah, it's a pirated game" on stream.
 
It really does feel like it's slid right into total irrelevance. 20K people are apparently watching and no is talking about it. Twitch isn't even featuring it on the front page when it used to take over the site before. It was similar last time but somehow this is even less.
