I'm Retro Reviver.
I don't really speedrun myself, but I more or less like to do commentary and voice overs for various speedrunning events, be in on the SpeedGaming tournaments or on the SM64 Romhack Speedrunning Marathon.

Hey all, I'm Sui. I'm currently running a game called Dusty's Revenge, which you might be mistaken as thinking it's a beat-'em-up with a fun art style and occasional clunkiness. I'm new to this whole speedrunning gig and generally consider myself not that great at video games, but hey; I'll still do my best.

Hey all, I'm HotDogger.

I like discussing about video games in general, as well as narrowing down the best aspects in them. I registered here in hopes of finding like-minded people.

Welcome new folks! It's a long effort to get a speedrun to the point of having SDA-grade quality, depending on the game of course. Set you goals high and make it a long-term goal! The basic reason that you might want to submit a run to us in addition to just getting it on the leaderboards is that the audience (everyone who played the game and even many who didn't) shouldn't have to come to you or to the tiny corner of the internet where the runners are to see your run. Instead, don't you think it deserves some commentary and a proud induction into the big gallery that SDA hosts, with a special mention on the front page when it's truly ready to be shared with the world?

Looking forwards to what you can come up with, but be patient!

Hi all!

We're a startup from Sweden trying to create a way to introduce yourself as a gamer. Think of it as the gaming version of a CV or a LinkedIn profile for your worklife.

We will post a thread showing you a preview of our work so far, where any feedback is much appreciated. Hope you'll like it!

Hello everyone! Name's Lopes, Martin Lopes. Happy to be here, to meet all of you and talk about everything! I live in Boston with my wife and two dogs. I am afraid of having kids, I don't think that I am responsible enough. I hope that it will change someday. I honestly think that having two dogs is much better, I love dogs with all my heart!

I am Usednapkin. I came here looking to take a game and grind the fuck out of it. I almost picked halo 2 because i love sword cancelling and the physics ofthe game but i remembered an old pc game i used to play, Hot Wheels Crash!, so I'll probs be running that. It seems i cant find shit on it, so thatll be fun taking the game apart (oc donut steel).
Personally i have a lot of vidya experience. I was like #10 on global points for tf2 on the xbox. Everyone else was a glitcher so i wqs probs number 2 or 3. I know there was a better spy then me but i was pretty set on Engineer. The game was glitched to fuck and i used to do some fun stuff, especially with the hacking. Im good at shooters. Used to run expert on l4d. I end up liking valve game because their glitches are top tier because of the Source Engine. I played halo 2 a lot. Dark souls a lot. Uh... CRPGs, although i like fucking around and roleplaying more. Played a lot of oblivion. But yeah hi. Also i play alot of dota. Like 6k hours or something altho only 3k mmr. I dropped down to 1.9k and been just spamming am to rise but if im not in the mood i wont play so i dont lose from just bad farming or something so its been taking me awhile. Yo

HI, im shade_the, I speedrun mainly guild wars 1, but have worked on some other games as well that wouldnt normally have runs for them. Eventually I would like to have an official SDA run of some of these games but interacting with the community is just a step in the right direction.

Hello, I like playing video games and I never really tried speedrunning that much but I thought why not give it a shot

Gustaff

2019-01-14 08:34:34 am

Good day! My name is Josh, but my online moniker is Gustaff (from The Misadventures of Tron Bonne). I have followed SDA for quite some time (07 or 08 or 09 or somewhere around there). I missed CGDQ live, but watched every video prior to AGDQ 2011. Speed running has always interested me Super Mario Bros 2 (USA) was the first game I would "speed run". Whenever I went to visit my grandparents, I would jump right on their NES, plop in SMB2 and play through it all in a day. As I got more into it, I would record my attempts on a VHS tape and watch them back. My best time is 11:45 and is still sitting somewhere on a VHS. I have since dabbled in speed running but not been able to put much focus into it. I finally decided to give it another go and figured positing on the SDA forums is a great place to start. This will also give me an excuse to get back into streaming. I am excited to finally be here and hope to talk to you all soon!

Hello I am DarkPillWarrior. I am new to the speedrunning community but I want to be helpful with developing some tricks to help with some games that might not be able to be speedrunned, yet. I have been noticing many glitches in games, due to watching speed runs, and I want to be able to post about these glitches in case no one has noticed them. I hope I can be helpful to speedrunners everywhere, some day.
