The History of Dragon Warrior World Records is here! youtube.com/watch?v=9z3ZvK…

Thank you all so very much for another stellar September! This has been the busiest and most exciting year of my life, and as things gradually return to normal I am thrilled to have the time to delve deep into a brand new complex speedrun and begin the grind for you all tonight!

Words cannot fully express my immense gratitude for my wonderful community that achieved the gargantuan milestone of 3000 Subs last night. Thank you all for helping to make this past year one of the best of my life. 15K Follower Special begins tomorrow (Thursday) at 1 pm Eastern!

Three years ago today, I ran Dragon Warrior at AGDQ. The response was something I never could have imagined. I'll always remember everyone's words of praise after the run and in the years to follow. Thank you all for being a part of a major career highlight!

Another new Dragon Warrior world record last night, this time shaving off 17 seconds. This run is everything I wanted out of my current route; next run will be on an improved route! twitch.tv/videos/8011923…

After 2 1/2 years I finally returned to Dragon Warrior last night and got a new World Record! This marks the tightest WR margin in Dragon Warrior to date, as the difference between the 2 fastest runs is now approximately 1/4 second. twitch.tv/videos/7790575…

After only a month and a half of speedrunning StarTropics I am already in the top 5! It has been such a joy to run this magnificent beast so far. A big thank you to the top 4 runners, who have provided deep insight and much encouragement. More runs to come!

Another big thank you to everyone who was a part of my 12 hour 12K special, which I couldn't wait more than a day to do. Another StarTropics PB to top it off. I'm really looking forward to doing detailed run analysis to determine how I can improve more from here. Fun times ahead!

What an insanely amazing night! 1,000 Subs, 12,000 Followers, a more than 5 minute improvement on StarTropics with under 6 minutes remaining on the table, and more cheers than I could keep track of. THANK YOU all so much for your support!!! 12 hour 12K Follower special is coming!

In the past 2 weeks I have taken the world record on Final Fantasy, Pipe Dream, Tiger-Heli, Orb-3D, Times of Lore, Bump 'N' Jump, and the Baseball Simulator 1.000 season. (Pipe Dream has been retaken.) I guess this is what happens when I'm encouraged to stay at home for 3 weeks.

Speedrunning has been such a useful hobby while everything is closed and everyone is isolated. I'm thankful for everyone who hangs out and helps make it such a fun process. Tonight I will be speedrunning an NES game I never played before this week. Stream starts in an hour or so!

Baseball Simulator 1.000 full season complete in 31:19:27! This is something I had been thinking about doing for months, and now seemed like the perfect time to finally get it done. Thank you so much to everybody for helping me maintain my sanity, chat was consistently epic!

Baseball season was supposed to start today. To help fill the void, on Friday, March 27th I will be starting a full season speedrun of Baseball Simulator 1.000, possibly the longest speedrun on the NES. Feel free to stop by. There will be more than 3,000 beanballs, guaranteed!

Alright guys, with so many people in isolation, nobody has any excuse to remain living in the dark ages. It's time for everyone to take responsibility and learn how to send an 'E mail' youtube.com/watch?v=szdbKz…

What a night last night! I improved the Final Fantasy WR, then got a maxout in Tetris, and followed that up with my first ever maxout starting from level 19! Thank you to everyone who stayed up so late to see it happen. Can't wait to hit both games again on Friday!

I just beat A Link To The Past for the first time today, with absolutely zero outside information or spoilers (thank you Mods!), in just under 29 hours of total playing time. Thank you to everyone for all the support and encouragement, it was a really fun week!

Six months ago at SGDQ I spent many nights fighting for my first Tetris maxout, to no avail. This year at AGDQ I got 3 maxouts over the course of 4 days. I've come a long way.

Way too much AGDQ awesomeness to mention in one post, so I'll use this one to report the epic 11-player simultaneous WR-tying Home Alone speedruns in the tournament room, coordinated by MCAaronIce and reffed live by me for verification. Well done everyone! youtube.com/watch?v=zUtHdl…

Happy New Year! Big thank you to everyone who was part of an epic New Years Eve, including reaching 11,000 Followers just before the stroke of midnight, and Tetris maxout #13 in the final hour for a third consecutive maxout day. 2020 is going to be magical!

Last night I got maxouts #7 and 8, marking the first time I've gotten two maxouts in one day. Maxout #8 was my first 1.1 million point game, maxing out in level 26. I've been playing a lot more consistently lately. The next CTWC is over 8 months away. Tetris is fun!
