Summer Games Done Quick's charity event will take place digitally this year

aGmeoDp.png

When COVID-19 caused the delay of just about every physical gathering related to gaming, the annual Summer Games Done Quick was delayed indefinitely. Later, the staff behind the charity-based speedrunning event announced that they had rescheduled Summer Games Done Quick to August, but given pandemic prevention measures, it was still unlikely that the show would still go on as usual. Which is why this GDQ will now take place entirely online, in the form of Summer Games Done Quick 2020 Online. The event will be streamed from speedrunner's homes, while the rest of the show will be hosted from the GDQ studio. You'll be able to tune in and watch the charity speedruns through the official Twitch channel, which will broadcast from August 16-23.

@DinohScene, I am fascinated to learn how I got deleted without violating the ToS. When you say, "It wasn't reported once", are you saying that it was never reported at all, or that the number of reports was more than one?

I do not care about anyone's feelings here. No one should be afraid to speak their mind on GBAtemp because they're worrying about hurting someone's oversensitive feels. If what I said does not violate the ToS, it should not have been censored. I didn't attack anyone. I didn't insult anyone. I provided my personal opinion on how when something becomes political, it stops being fun, and you censored me.

You know for a fact nothing I said was offensive or a violation. Yours was a personal decision.

I look forward to understanding your reasoning.

It's been reported three times in quick succession if you want to know it that badly.
I simply removed it due to the amount of reports.
I couldn't care less about about the whole gender thing or your opinion tbf.

I'm not going to discuss this further in public tho, it'll just derail the thread even further.

Eh, GDQ hasn't been nearly as fun since they sanitized it and took away the cancer. I used to look forward to it but now chat is just filled with stale memes.

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
