Result! The TGL derust is complete. Learning is ongoing. Pleased with this first completed run. It’s my second best attempt! Only 11 seconds off of PB! Now to replicate and make 52s a repeatable action. Let’s show some marathon-caliber consistency. If a 51 shows up on the way… all the better.
What an incredible NES Block! Thank you so much to everyone who watched and donated! Shoutouts to @threach.bsky.social for helping me find my missing key, which caused the room 70 kerfuffle. I nudged this chest in Room 44! That’s never happened before. It’s more than just a meme!
Imagine a NES Block! Or don’t, because it’s gonna happen anyway! Wake up and tune in to @gamesdonequick.com

OMG here’s a MUCH better picture from our friends in another part of town! MAJESTIC!
Freakin @toad22484.bsky.social rangoonin’ on main. Sucked me in. Put me down for 7.
I’ve been tracking my weight for the last 15 years (and a day). When I turned 30, I strove to lose weight, and I did. Then having a kid and increased work stress wore me out. This past August I tried again. 195 today, right where I want to stay (in 190s). Proud of myself for maintaining so far.
Stepped away for a bit, but just to close the loop here, it is now finished. Gorgeous!
Those that were around the old hellsite back in 2018 may remember that I made two "Ant & Toad in California" comics when they moved across the country. 8 years later, the long-awaited Volume 3 was finally released, featuring a reference to Rika Furude Simulator made by @pollyhead.bsky.social
Finally home as of a couple of hours ago. A flight delay Friday evening made me miss my connection, so I spent an unexpected evening in Toronto! Since my rebooked flight wasn’t until 2pm today, I ventured to a nearby retro game store and it was really cool! Friendly folks and lots of carts!
I have fled the country. (Actually it’s just a work trip) Who knows where I’ll end up? (I do, obviously) Will I ever return? (Yes, on Friday… what’s with all the questions??)
I just use a rudimentary setup for capturing a bunch of S-Video signals (pictured here) but you can do so much more with it. I run the S-Video out cable to my RetroTINK 2x, and to an old Elgato capture card from there. That’s what you see on my stream! (remember when I streamed?)
Be the change you want to see. Want more NES games on the GDQ schedule? Fine, submit 5 NES games.
Thanks to everyone who came by and hung out for the anniversary stream! We got 3 sub-15s in the first hour, then practiced flowkey for a bit and got this! A 14:19 that lost 14 seconds due to bad teleporter RNG. 👀 This game is so fun! More to come???question mark???
We have another (very brief) shipping promo for cookies! It’s only this weekend and ends at midnight Eastern on Sunday! Buy 6-12 packages, pay just $5 for shipping. (Donies do not count towards this) if you want more than 12, split to two orders and get reduced shipping on both! (Link in next post)
That was great fun! I don't even regret playing Kid Icarus! 😅 Next steps for me: - Start a grind of The Guardian Legend to try and get sub-50 - Continue to grind Super Dodge Ball to try and get sub-5 - Make a fully fleshed out Gauntlet speedrun tutorial video, explaining all of the manips.
Ten years on and I have almost exclusively played only the games that I wanted to play, rarely straying from the principle, and it has been a joy. To celebrate, this Saturday night I will play ten games: one game from each of the ten years of streaming. It will be a fun train-wreck! See you then!
It’s GIRL SCOUT COOKIE season! All boxes: $6.00 each. Zoe’s current goal is 300 sold. Shipping promo on orders of 6-12 boxes of cookies (excl. donies): flat shipping rate of $5.00! If you want more than 12, split into 2 orders and use the promo twice! digitalcookie.girlscouts.org/scout/zoe985...
