There isn't anything added on to the VOD link in the OP, so I don't think so

DONATION TOTAL FOR AGDQ 2016: $1,209,258.80.

This is just $6,000 less than the amount raised in last SGDQ.

All VODs are up and available at this link: https://www.reddit.com/r/speedrun/comments/3z9fyi/agdq_vod_thread_2016/

More information is available in the OP.

Hopefully we raise even more money for SGDQ 2016, which should be in July

My favorite runs were mario maker (custom level blind race is a really cool concept) and Ori (good commentary, exciting race and beautiful game).

I missed far more than I wanted to, but I got to watch most of the Mario games, mk8, and some great races. I have a lot of vod watching to do. And it saddens me that ff tactics was not voted best ff game. 2/4 and 3/6 are close, but man that game..... So much fun. I wonder if I can buy it on ps4 virtual console. I mean they must have old games for sale on their right? I've never looked.... Brb checking lol

Some people recommend the blind-folded punch-out race. While it is obviously super impressive, the fact that you need sound cues made it a horrible game to race in my opinion. The audience forced to be silent the for entire game (and couldn't cheer after a TKO (or even worse, after the first Tyson), kinda killed the hype. When I compare it to the blind-folded races of previous AGDQs it just felt dull. (Another reason might be that in previous AGDQs every round was more than what you expected (at least the later rounds), this year Tyson going down was kinda expected I think?)

They had to do something to spice it up. the blindfold punch out is a popular run but after improving it over several events it can now just be done. Making it a race was the logical next step imo, there isn't a lot you can go from here tho.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I think last year's SPO blindfolded run by Zallard was even better than this year's PO race, but I liked this year's too.

During a blindfolded race, the runners can't even speak between rounds because they don't want to interrupt their opponents. At least last year, Zallard could talk in between fights.

They said that there will be one. Check it in the evening or so.
There was something about "Arby's" is the key that the bonus stream is going online...

I wonder what the next great blindfolded run will be... I think Ocarina of Time is #1 by a significant amount, and I can't even imagine what other game could realistically be run blindfolded that could top that.

Well that's it

Ok, let's check what I liked... I missed a few that I will rewatch, but those I already saw.

Splatoon (was surprised, but was really entertaining!)
Transformers (those puns... omg! )
Lion King (MexicanRunner, nuff said... and his singing! )
Hotline Miami (really fast and great commentary)
Crypt of the Necrodancer (incredible thing...)
Super Metroid (Any% 2p1c) (I can't do that with two hands...)
Ink (entertaining and I'm an old SuperMeatBoy fan...)
Gimmick (always incredible!)
Battletoads (especially the blind folded part ... even if he didn't make it)
Castlevania (Whip Only) (I hated the game already WITH items...)
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (Blindfolded) (SO INTENSE!!!)
Pokemon Blue (Glitch Showcase) (where is the game??? oh, behind those fractures...)
Shovel Knight (great race!)
Final Fantasy IV (ah, the memories...)

There is quite a few I have to VOD. The Super Mario part, the TAS, ... damn, I have no time for all that

Battle kid 2 / super mario maker was great as well and would recommend it to anyone who missed it

The race in super mario maker wasn't very intense but was interesting to see the some of the best mario players play new maps for them and see their reactions to stuff and their puzzle solving

You mean twitch plays super mario maker right?

Battle kid 2 was awesome.
The harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.

I liked the Super Mario Maker races in particular... both the blind (non-practiced, not blindfolded) and practiced ones.
