My feelings on The Demon Rush

The prizes are kind of a mess right now. There are three problems:

1. Improperly labeled prizes. As I objectively stated with an even temper in this friendly little post. Seriously though, taking 10 extra seconds to label something properly would have saved hours of struggle and confusion.

These prizes need clarifying (prize winners in parentheses):

-Halo Master Chief 1 (Zack Fitzgerald) and 2 (Maxime Tremblay Lachance) - I think 2 is the picture Cody provided)
-~~Bayonetta picture 1 (Cameron Alston) and 2 (Jonathon Anderson)~~ DONE
~~-Cave Story 1 (Keith Lalonde) and 2 (Steven Ellis)~~ - Quote and Curly
-~~Mystery Game 1 (David Balls, he told me it's the Data east collection) and 2 (Dan Carper, I guess this is Judgment?)~~ DONE
-Earthworm Jim Picture - There were two: Psycrow and Queen Slug-for-a-butt

I need someone to check the commentary for these games and determine which picture is which, and if I see poor labeling like this during next year's marathon, heads will roll. Angry

A big thank you to the people who actually did take the time to distinguish pictures of the same thing, like the FF4 pictures (I think puwexil labeled those?).

2. Prizes that aren't in the prizes program.

There are at least 5 prizes that are not in the donation program.

-All of the Super Mario Galaxy 2 prizes (picture, game, and puzzle) - Now I just need to know who to give the puzzle to.
-One of the Earthworm Jim pictures, whichever one wasn't listed in the prizes program
-~~The Blast Corps Cart PEACHES_ gave away with all platinum times.~~ Found it, Brian Downing.
-EDIT: The two Punch-Out pictures. Little Mac and Glass Joe

Again, I need someone to go through the commentary for these games and pick out who the winners are.

3. Unassigned prizes.

I think there's only one, and that's the Aiai picture. Was this ever assigned?

Just in case, here's my current list of prizes (currently at 126). If I forgot something that I forgot to mention above, notify me ASAP.

Actually, as for the 1 and 2 pictures, I don't think they were labelled as neither 1 nor 2 when we showed them to the chat so you should just be able to assign them to the winners in arbitrary order. If anything, go by the sorting of the file name for the images as that is probably the order they were being displayed in.

The Blast Corps cart went to the person who had the highest donation for the blast corps file name.

edit: we came to the conclusion that it was probably best to check the commentary videos anyways, just to make confirm if we actually did mention a specific drawing when announcing the winners.

Now a hit show on the CW

I can only speak for the Cave Story pictures, as I was commentating during that run - Like moooh said, I'm fairly certain that the pictures themselves were not labeled, and I was not viewing the stream when they were shown. So, when announcing the prizes for the run, I only referred to them by saying something like "we have two Cave Story-themed pictures to give away." I don't think I ever specified at any point during commentary which specific picture would be going to which winner. I probably just said something like "Alright, the first picture is going to ________, and the winner of the second picture is _______." Since I never specified which was which, I don't think the winners can really have expectations of what they're supposed to be receiving.

And yes, I can verify that mystery game 1 is the arcade collection, and game 2 is the castlevania one.

My feelings on The Demon Rush

On the commentary stream computer and on my usb stick (should have passed that around a LOT more apparently) the pictures were labeled quote and curly, so if they showed the scans, then it should have been known. :-/ I guess 1 is quote and 2 is curly.

EDIT: New problem. Someone forgot to assign the mm2 coasters prize, so I need people to check the commentary for that game and see who won them.

I put up the pictures on the commentary stream for Cave Story. I definitely said "Quote picture" and "Curly picture" at the time, but I'm not sure how they were assigned.

Okay. It was at about a minute into the MM9 commentary. He donated again during the MM9 run itself, as well, but the prize was announced at about the minute mark.

Thanks moooh.

It now turns out the Punch-Out prizes (little mac and glass joe pictures) somehow weren't assigned. I don't know if we forgot to give them out, or if we forgot to add them to the list. I'll need someone to check. :-/

Looking at the commentary right after PunchOut now.
edit: It wasn't mentioned during the first 20 minutes after punchout ended, but I know we waited longer than that in some cases due to forgetting to do it immediately, so I guess we'll have to keep watching all of the commentaries after that one to be sure.

Also, haven't found the EWJ drawings yet. They're not in end of EWJ, not in RKA, not in Altered Beast, not in Sonic 2. I'll keep checking upcoming ones later tomorrow.

Yeah I guess the drawings aren't all that big deal. The Mario Galaxy prizes however are a bit more important to get right. Are you sure you couldn't even find them as prizes in the program? I know we did draw them because I know we announced the puzzle, and I don't see how we could have managed doing a draw for it without having it in there.

I'll check that commentary next.

As I mentioned earlier, the name for the Blast Corps cart is the same as the name for the highest bidder for the filename. I think it was only one bid at something as high as $200 because PEACHES_ had said on stream that, as opposed to our other raffles, the highest donor for the filename would get the cart.

I already sorted out blast corps, it was Brian Downing, he paid 250 dollars for the file name. And by random drawing, I meant Punch-Out, not the rest of the games, whoops.

Halo pictures were announced as "and the two winners are: Zack Fitzgerald and Maxime Tremblay Lachance" but no distinction as to which picture was which.
The pictures were however posted in chat right after the announcement so if anything, consider 1 and 2 as the sort order of the filenames for the pictures as that was the order being used when posted in the chat.

That would make:
1: 03 - Halo - Master Chief Stacy Corron.jpg
2: 03 - Halo - Master Chief pic.jpg

Still no sign of SMG2 drawings, not after SMG2, not during Portal, not during Halo.

I actually know when we did the SMG2 drawings. We did them before the run ended. So you'll have to look through smg2 commentary. I am 99% sure we announced winners too.

Oh before it ended? Ok explains why I haven't found it, I skipped to where it ended and started there.
Do you remember roughly how far from the end it was? The SMG2 commentary is not yet available in a small file so all I have is a 12 hour file which seeks for 6 minute steps as a minimum.
