Everyone is free to throw money wherever they feel like it, and it's only a real issue if they are deceived in some way. This marathon made pretty clear who is actually receiving the money and why it is for. The title is the only issue, but I don't see the reason forsuch a big deal out of the title alone.

In fact just the other day she got over $300 in one night. This is besides the fact that she is with cosmo who of course could easily fund her trip with the blink of an eye and one wind waker run. To be completely honest, I don't think anybody should be asking for donations to fund their vacations even if it is to read some chat logs at a quasi-charity event. So your argument is that she should not ask for donations to get to the event because she could've just ask for donations to get to the event (or have Cosmo ask for donations instead)? If there's a problem with misleading donation banners/drives/marathons, then let's talk about that. But as long as the people asking for the money are honest.. where's the problem? I remain baffled at some things people have donated money for during streams, but hey, it's still their money to do with as they please. | ||

I was really confused why it was listed as a nearly 5 hour run, but then I realized that the record was so perfected that it was tracked by a fraction of a second. Thats pretty crazy. What fps does the game run at? Can the run actually be improved any more at this point? | ||

A high 4:57:XX is possible but at this point it is so optimized it will probably takes months or even years for him to save anymore frames. IIRC the game runs at 30 fps. | ||

http://www.twitch.tv/kingdime/c/3063214 Looks better on the twitch highlight if you feel like watching through a commercial. Scythe is a megawad made in 2003 which was and is one of the most popular of the WAD's. It has over 700 demos but was missing a single segment run so I finished that up. Gameplay gets exponentially more difficult in the third episode. | ||
