Werster's personality is the type to create strong emotions around him. He's very passionate about what he does and doesn't filter himself in the slightest. He speaks his mind and can be outright rude at times. He's a nice guy, but can come off as grating if you're not familiar with him and you tune into his stream at the wrong time. This type of personality will create people who absolutely love him and people who despise him. Everyone who has a lot of fans will have people who dislike them, but Werster's behavior creates a few more people that dislike him than usual. Especially since Werster likes to jokingly shit talk other pokemon runners, it's very easy to understand that there's going to be a subsection of people that don't understand he's joking. Some people will just get offended by those types of jokes and not stick around long enough to find out that he was in fact joking. Gunner either dislikes him, or is trying to capitalize on the knowledge that there is inevitably going to be a portion of pokemon stream viewers that dislike him. I'm not sure which one it is, but either one makes sense.

Im starting to run Raze again. I guess I just get easily demotivated running when no one else is running my game.
I've also been running Path of Exile, but the game isnt fully released yet. I have some pretty good times, but nothing WR quality level yet. (The last part of Act 3 hasnt been released yet.)
Edit: beat my PB in Raze for the human campaign, new PB is 36:29.

From the scheduling thread for AGDQ.

I will be leaving on the 7th Mike. Unfortunately the flights on the 8th do not get me to my 3 hr lecture in time zzzzz

I'll update you with the actual times later considering im purchasing flights today.

Sad day, Dime. Mike's probably going to put Starcraft 2 later in the week in a good time slot since it did so well last time and I wanted to have you around for commentary.

That's precisely what happened to me the other day. Randomly tuned into his stream (I'm usually not big on pokemon runs) and heard him talking about other games and casters for 15 minutes. Apparently, everyone but him sucks and isn't a real speedrunner anyhow and every game he hasn't played yet is shit. And most everyone is a "faggot", "gay" and a "nigger".

Welp, back to Adam_AK and Cosmo it is!

Yup that's unfortunate, but on the other hand, 2 WR on a single day, he made my day.

Yellow easily triples his average viewers haha. He should consider doing more yellow for that reason alone

I don't even watch pokemon speedruns much (live that is, world record records are another thing) but saw the amount of viewers wester had on SRL and knew something was up. DAMnnn he destroyed the world record. Good luck to anyone getting sub 1:55 lol. I didn't even think I'd see someone get 1:56 nevermind 1:55

A good runner with a lot of green splits (WR's pace) always gains a lot of viewers in the middle of the run.
Almost 10k is huge tho.

While that's true, Pokemon Yellow seems to attract more viewers than average. I guess it's a game that people have a lot of nostalgia for?

It could be because of the reputation of the end of Yellow destroying so many runs. Good splits in Yellow don't mean shit until you're past Lance, even then that Sandslash can still dick you over with a crit while you're setting up.

I'll still take all of that over Deathguise or every loading screen possibly causing a crash

That's true but you kinda miss the point on this one.
Even if RNG can screw you up right at the end of the run, a good run is still a good run and people will watch it - can't really say for Yellow (since Nidoran is a different story), but not everyone like to watch reset every two minutes on Blue and prefer to follow the run once it gets going, and since it can take a loooot of time, the numbers of people watching will increase with time.
Even if nerd's dreams will be crushed 49 times out of 50.

Edit: Fuck Deathguise, btw.

a good run means a lot of opportunities to spam the kevinturtles, which is what twitch is good for
