AGDQ 2024 - Pseudoregalia

"Escaping the bad dream."

[prokopetz]

I hadn't even realized AGDQ was on at the moment; but I just got a recommendation for a video of a guy speedrunning a game with his dog. Like, the guy's trained the dog to press buttons on command, but the dog is the one who's actually pressing the buttons.

BRB, starting an argument about whether the run in question should be classified as a "two players, one controller" exhibition, or as a human player using a dog as an input device.

In Undertale Yellow's SGDQ, chat raised over 20,000 USD! Lots of money was donated to vote to spare Ceroba. As a reward for sparing her, AeroArtwork revealed new art + old concept art previously not shown.

QUILTMAGEDDON COMETH.

So if you voted in that poll about what internet stunt I should pull to raise money for fixing my shit living conditions, you might have noticed I Just Make A Quilt won by a pretty significant margin! So, to all *checks math*... 22 of you who wanted to see that happen, congrats!

Starting this Friday night (07/26/24) I will be marathoning working on my first ever quilt while also streaming weird old movies, to raise money for food and a cleaning service to fix my depression nest.

I plan to go nonstop for three days, if I can make it. The quilt will for sure not be done by then, but that's as long as I think I can reasonably marathon for. I'll take Monday off and then get back to it on Tuesday, but after that I'll stop to sleep at night. Otherwise I'll basically live on stream, quilting, until the quilt is done.

The image above is my concept for the quilt I want to make (it's Katamari themed!) which will be donated to the next GDQ event as a prize, assuming I finish it (and it's not complete garbage).

If you are an experienced quilter, you are probably going oh no right now! Tune in to watch the train wreck live! Tell your quilting friends!

Seriously, the number one thing you can do to help me is tell other people about this! The biggest thing that has held me back in basically all aspects of my life is my complete inability to market myself so I am seriously relying on anyone who sees this to share it with anyone they think might be interested in either quilting, weird old movies, or just watching someone suffer while doing something stupid!

WE'RE KICKING THINGS OFF WITH THE BLACK CAT (1934) FEATURING BORIS KARLOFF AND BELA LUGOSI, FRIDAY THE 26TH AT 11:59PM CST! BE THERE OR DON'T!

i don't think i'll be able to wake up in time to catch it live at GDQ (it's at 5 am pacific time lol), so i drew something for the Live A Live run.

“Orphanclip¹ is kind of complicated to explain. You see, if we push all the orphans into the exact right spot, then drop the landmine and perform a series of frame perfect inputs, their ragdolling bodies with push us just far enough through the barrier to-“

“While you’re pushing those orphans, do you have time for some donations?”

“Uh. Sure. I guess.”

“We have $35 from 0rfanB0mber saying ‘orphanclip HYYYYYPE!’”

HYYYYYPE chants erupt from the crowd

“We have $20 from GigaDoggo saying ‘Pet! those! orphans!’ Next we have an anonymous $5000 donation that says ‘I lost my wife and brother to cancer last year. I’ll never get them back but thanks to charities like this other people won’t suffer the same loss’”

*landmine explodes, orphan viscera coats the screen*

“And finally we have a $5 donation asking chat to start a $5 orphan train choo choo!”

“Oh piss² I missed the 23rd consecutive 1-frame Orphanclip input, I was sure I could nail that on stage. Oh shit, sorry I swore.”

“While you’re setting up the clip again, do you have time for some donations?”

¹The Orphanclip would become a fan favorite glitch. At later GDQs, because the any% route of StreetSlayer: Blood of the Weak would reroute to skip it entirely, it would later become a $600,000 donation incentive to add a bonus “Orphanclip%” run. They would also sell official GDQ merch depicting the Orphanclip

²The speedrunner would later receive a permanent GDQ ban for swearing

"Exploring the Quantum Moon."

Show of hands if you too are watching SGDQ live solely for carrarium's any% run of Monika's D-Sides.

During the Undertale Yellow Summer GamesDoneQuick stream, the runners talk about root beer and water bottles during the trolley problem. This is a reference to a popular TikTok edit with Starlo.

[Video description: A clip from the GDQ stream of Undertale Yellow of the third Wild East mission. The cutscene takes Clover, Star, and Ceroba to the fence to the west of town as the streamers talk.

Shayy: "So, how do you feel about the train problem?"

Kyoshi: "I have a very- I have an ethical dilemma to give to you all. It's very important, very important. Would you rather save..."

The camera pans to the train tracks.

Kyoshi, doing a silly voice: "...the five water bottles, or the roo beer?"

Wooffle, also doing the voice: "The one can of root beer!"

Shayy and Astra overlapping: "The root beer, the root beer!"

Wooffle: "Vote now on your phones."

Kyoshi: "It's faster to sacrifice the roo beer!" End description]
