Talk to the Hand
Hey everyone,
I'm going to be giving a panel titled "So You Want to be a Speedrunner: A Leisurely Guide to Playing Video Games in a Frantic Manner" at a small convention called Gobble-con. This is pretty exciting stuff for me--while there have been other speedrunning panels before (Heck, SDA has done a few), I'm pretty sure this is the first panel to actually delve into the process of making a speedrun, from deciding your end goal (Yes, this is even more important than game choice, for reasons I'll go into at the panel itself), to what to do with your run once you've gotten one recorded.
As I mentioned above, the panel is at Gobble-con in Milford, CT, which takes place from November 19-21 at the Hilton Garden Inn. I don't know how many people here on SDA are in the Connecticut area besides me, but it would be awesome to see some of you there! Just a note that it's a small, anime-centered convention. The other note is that, being as this is more of a how-to panel, while I'll make sure to mention SDA in the presentation, it won't be the focus as it has been in other panels.
And now, feel free to point and laugh at the concept of "Emptyeye, Public Speaker".
