Yanno I always considered going to a GDQ event, but this is pretty ridiculous. At least EVO was just a couple cases of easily contained thuggery.

There was a second emote too. After they banned danSexy, there was another streamer with an emote that was of them wearing a pink wig that they started spamming.
Really, if ProtoMagicalGirl didn't start ranting about the danSexy emote, it would have been a thing for a bit, but people would ultimately forget about it. Instead you had other trans people calling her bullshit about the emotes being transphobic and saying that she was acting in poor taste.
But if you like the attention, any attention is good I guess.
BCWarrior. Which stands for Breast Cancer Warrior. FFS that guy is one of the faces of twitch when it comes to drumming up enthusiasm for charity.
More context on dansexy. It was a really old emote when he crossdressed and did some dancing on stream many years ago. It had nothing to do with the LGBT community. Of course twitch chat is going to be cancer and twist emotes. The best reaction is not to acknowledge the trolls. But GDQ staff took the bait and boom, DRAMA. Even the person who drew dansexy threw some shade on her for not understanding the context of the emote. It got even worse when they went emote-only mode when PMG was on stream.
I think Trihard and comeonbruh got banned as well because GDQ can't joke about racism in chat.
Twitch chat is horrendous to begin with for any decently sized event. The trick is to just hang out in your favorite streamers chat during a GDQ.
It wasn't even a problem until they were triggered on stream, and then Twitch chat did what they're best at doing and it was all downhill from there.
Couple things i noticed with the schedule.
First: CavemanDCJ is back!!
second: is this the first year with no super metroid run? wtf????? how the fuck???? kill/save the animals is one of their biggest bid wars.
They ran Metroid at SGDQ or something right?
I think Super Metroid has gotten to the point that we have seen all the tech and on different routes. The Super Metroid community recently finished a randomizer tournament if that's any indication that SM only has optimizations with the various categories, mostly on execution. Don't think there are many deviations that can make a route faster.
Plus we get a LttP randomizer race so that's gonna be fun.
Need more of these moments
Also I think there was this Crash 2 guy who kept talking about suicide or something like that?
He got expelled iirc
Half the fun in SM races is to see how many runners actually finish the race imo lol
The big problem and reason why no SM is no runners submitted it this year too lol. However people are disappointed that Cheese05 and Puncayshun (1st and 2nd in SM64) 120 star race got rejected.
That video was well worth using some of my data to watch. lol
