Nekin and I are the only XXL speedrunners to have met IRL.
And, we pushed a run live together at Bourg-La-Run, in front of 3000 viewers
He ran, I was commentating.
Well, we did run into a Greece catapult crash. But, I piloted him on-the-fly into a backup strat he never practiced for :3
Which, the main commentators acclaimed, was kinda cook because we looked like Rallye pilots figuring their way out of a tough situation.
That day also, we were wearing XXL T-shirts I got printed, and he kept his since ^^
I believe this happened in 2018 or prior.
In just two months, the first run is turning 9, daaaaaamn!
The reason i'm still around and not completely absent from the community, is to be able to keep telling the old stories.
I remember when I woke up ||way too early because I forgot time zones existed|| to watch a stream of him running. I quit speedrunning due to loss of interest but good to see he is fine
Good to see that there's still a lot of people around
for me it's basically just a safe place here concidering how much of a shithole the old place has now become
And see you in two years btw 😛
