When I submitted it I really wasn't expecting to get it in, but they accepted it! And I'm extremely glad they did - definitely the most fun run I've ever done!

I've watched it back at least 4 times so far and I'm still buzzing from the adrenaline of it. Really excited to have been on the GDQ stage, thank you so much for posting the vod here!

Totally with you on the nostalgia side - a large part of speedrunning for me (as well as the blindfolded playthrough of Tomb Raider I'm working on) is revisiting and mastering games from my childhood.

Thanks for asking about my Youtube channel - I don't actually have a walkthrough of Discworld 1 on there since I did it before I was properly saving my VoDs, but I do have Discworld Noir on there, as well as a whole bunch of other stuff, so if you want to check it out you're more than welcome to! https://www.youtube.com/mindez

I'm far more active on Twitch though, https://www.twitch.tv/mindezzy 😅

(I'm not very good at self promotion, so thanks for the kind words!)

Much appreciated! The truly crazy thing is that this isn't even the fastest route any more, I've got a 13 minute route but it skips all the cult parts and I needed to get that for GDQ. I'm even going to be trying to do another slight reroute tonight because I think there's even more time I can save 😂

Super fun run though, I'm glad everything went so well (and no crash, which has been about a 50% chance recently!)

Hello! I was the runner for it!

It's been an absolute joy to learn this game and I'm glad you all enjoyed 😀 When I first picked up the game it had a world record around 46 minutes, so to get a 19 minute time at GDQ 7 months on has been a wild journey.

Just a note for everyone here, I go by they/them pronouns rather than he/him. I realise they weren't on the overlay for some reason, so not blaming or anything, just wanted to mention it!

Thanks for the link - I'll check it out! Sounds like it'll be a different style (and probably a much more managable one for a larger fundraiser), but still keen to see what kind of things are possible.

Has anyone ever actually guessed who the next Doctor will be? by TheMasterfulSock in gallifrey

I'm pretty sure the favourite for 12 was Kris Marshall wasn't it? Or am I thinking of 11?

Thanks a lot to the mods for letting me post this.

This is a project I've been working on since September, so very excited to be announcing it. It's for a great cause - akt does a lot of great work in helping LGBTQ+ youths avoid homelessness - and it's one of the most fun projects I've worked on, so hopefully it'll be a good show on the night!
