 Third (Fourth?) straight year of AGDQs easily hitting over a million dollars for charity! Also had hundreds of thousands of concurrent viewers, and surely millions in total. Another amazingly successful event for speedrunning and cancer research, and we still have a full day left! | ||

TASBot injected code into Link to the Past through the controller inputs to play a video stream through the controller inputs (no modifications to the SNES or the game cart, just heavy exploiting of glitches), so they had an emulator playing on the computer and streaming that video feed into the SNES, now they're doing Portal | ||

And with $1.3M already and about 8-10 hours left, should get $1.5M+... might be the highest total out of all the GDQs? Either way, this marathon has already been a huge success for speedrunning and for cancer research | ||
