Dapper as fuck.

Radioactive Rat wants me on the couch for Lester the Unlikely
GVirus wants me on the couch for Axiom Verge.
I am interested in the FF4 couch as well. Will update when Nocash gives me the yeah or nay.

Quote from hugo4fun:

Looking for commentators on my game, Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow Over Mystara - Cleric No Deaths% . I can teach anyone interested.

I am willing to be taught and should be around the day of the run.
Nothing else interests me to couch this time around.

I'm interested in commentating the following, and have already confirmed with the runner(s):
Azure Striker Gunvolt
Goof Troop
Strider
Magical Quest
Snapshot

I'd be happy to offer commentary for the following, but I'd need to know ahead of time so I can research:
Gimmick
Blaster Master
MM2 (I'm sure this is covered)

In races of three or more participants the runners will not be mic'd.

Hey

For Azure Striker Gunvolt, the commentators will be Blechy, Trogdor and cleartonic (Greenalink and I discussed it and agreed on those three).

The couch for the 96 exit race will be Greendeathflavor, Linkdeadx2, and Dram55. This was agreed upon by the runners.

I was under the impression I would be able to commentate my own run and would very much like to.

Offering to help with GTA 3 commentary. I need to brush up on the current route and dupes but I have a basic understanding of how the run works and what needs to be done and what can mess things up.

Glad my fanboy lvls aren't THIS high

I'd be willing to try and help commentate the following:

-Megaman 9
-Megaman 10
-Rockman 4 BCAS
-Megaman X
-Megaman ZX

However, I'll do so only if there are not enough commentators for these games, if they don't have set commentators already. I'd prefer that people that are more familiar with the runs and/or runners to have first billing. I'm just offerring myself as a backup or an extra voice if needed.

Blechy offered to do commentary over Twitter and I can't turn him down. But now the BM couch is super duper closed.

I've also confirmed with Darbian that I'll be commentating SMB1.

Dragon Age: Origins couch is pretty much open to anyone. I'm probably going to do all the commentary myself.

If you wind up preferring anyone over someone else, just let me know.

Quote from darbian:

For the Super Mario Bros. race, the three of us (GreenDeathFlavor, Lackattack24 and I) will handle the commentary ourselves.

Due to technical limitations we are currently unable to give a the headsets with a microphone to more than 2 runners during a race, the other two will have headphones with game audio. This was the case at SGDQ as well and it was decided that for races with three or more runners, it was better to have dedicated commentary than to have some of the runners talking and others not as this tends to create confusion for the audience.

You can still have up to 4 people with mics for commentary, this problem only applies to races with three or more people.

Thank you for the quick and informative response. While I get the problem now, it is kind of disappointing that I won't get to talk about the game I submitted just due to your setup not being able to handle four headsets with microphones. I really wanted to be able to talk about SMW and share the run I've put so much time into, and the banter between the couch and runners has been some of my favorite parts of past GDQs. I'll still hold onto the hope that somehow your audio setup grows by the event, but either way I'll be there to run.

I've spoken with Blechy as well as the other Super Mario Bros. racers. Blechy will be providing our commentary. He'll be the only one doing commentary since it's such a short run with a lot to cover. Consider the couch closed.

Hi, I'm just confirming that Blechy will be doing commentary for Snapshot
