Thanks Summoning Salt I just finished the video and you take something that seems trivial such as Wii Sports speed runs and tell the story in such a way that at the end you actually felt the heartache and the impact of that last missed putt. My heart actually sank and I was like damnnn. My wife was like what is wrong as I was listening with headphones on the couch. I told her this guy missed a putt in Wii golf and she looked at me sideways lol. Thanks for everything bro!!!
Finally shows off his baseball bits love on main

Please do sonic 1 world records
Love the channel bro! Keep the videos coming 👍🏽👏👏👏
I like these videos because they're always like "He's done the impossible, and he knew he would never be beaten" and then you check and there's 37 minutes left in the runtime
Its like when you watch ncis and the killer is "caught" but the episodes still have 15 minutes left
Talk about PS1 speedruns, please.

tf u doin checkin the runtime on a SS vid?
Can't believe they haven't established a rule against using the 1.00 version (or at least move it to its own separate category), that just seems like a really unfair disadvantage
Or at least remove the time they would lose from being on it. Since it seems to be a fix amount of time anyways.
@@toriitoraa well you can knock 5 seconds off but then all the throwing cutscenes idk
Also I just now noticed thanks to this vid, I have a launch Wii cause when he showed that cutscene and made it sound normal I’m like “Tf is this???”)
Oh Schaff, you’ve really done it now, you rabid-AAAAAAAAAAA
The time for the miis to turn around and throw to first after the grabbing the ball changes depending on how far they have to stretch for the ball, so it's different every time. Miis stretching for the ball also changes the time for out to display on 1.0, so there is never a 'constant' time to compare against.
There is also random lag that can occur in Bowling and Golf when striking / hitting rock walls and doing ds that is extremely prevalent in 1.1.
To compensate, a few months ago a version variable was added to the board, meaning that players can filter runs to include just 1.1 runs, meaning there is a psuedo-seperate leaderboard.
Also big fan of your vids champ keep em up
Resisting the strong urge to call this a mistake and tell you who made it
UPDATE: New first place holder is now RyMacG4
As of December 31 2023, RyMacG4 became the world record holder with a time of 6m 53s 867ms!
He has been the first person in Wii Sports SR history to achieve sub 7min!
That's absolutely insane, I couldn't believe for a sec it happened like, JUST right now lol
This is so recent too wow
God what’s so good about these videos is there’s always a comment on the up to date record in the comments
@@t7mf fr
His first speed run he submitted for the category was an 8:38.850 on May 12th 2023. He submitted 8 more runs over the next 7 months when he finally managed a sub 7 run. His previous run before that held 4th place for a day if I am reading the leaderboard right. Mr_Shy_Guy could’ve been the first sub 7 if he had 1.0 but it wouldn’t have held up against RyMacG4. RyMacG4’s account was only a few months old without a run to his name when this video was made.
Six months later and Shockwave is closer than ever to achieve a 6 minute run.
Best time: 7m 00s 700ms
Unbelievable
I knew some absolute legend would have the updated record. Thanks mate
As of October 20 2022 the record has stayed the same. But there is no doubt that it will reach the 6m time mark

My heart strings were tugged by that brutal ending and it's literally my fault lmao, but it's kept things very interesting, I hope to make an analysis vid soon with my own comments and stuff like that
Look at this guy being a champion. Get him!
The wr holder himself
Lol, it's guaranteed that several people mentioned in a SummoningSalt video will immediately be spotted in the comments section.
That ending caught me by surprise
The legendary one has spoken to us. Hope you get the sub 7 :)
one of these days i want Summoning Salt to do a video just as dramatic as his usual videos, but it's an incredibly obscure category played by a single person, and each time the record is beat he says something like "it looked like Gamer201's record would stand for years, but there was one man who would take up the challenge... it was Gamer201."
that’s kind of the punch out video lol
Isn't that just the second half of the Ninja Gaiden video?
Gamer202
Spider-Man SNES
Not trying to show off, but he could talk about my record on Cscz on Expert… he could also talk about the Easy category, which is the most competitive, though I only took part in it once, actually doing a deathless solo run, instead of the usual way.
This channel really makes video game speedruns feel like world historical events
They might as well be, these dudes are legends
They are in their own right.
Just on a micro level
“Only one person could beat Alaska, and that person is Alaska.” Absolutely fantastic delivery

Après tant d'années j'ai donc trouvé le bon côté de youtube ?
I love how the early strategies basically boil down to swinging that damn wiimote as hard as you can and then praying to your deity of choice. That's some real high level gameplay right there
As up today, the record is being hold by ShockwaveTLS. 10months ago he beated Nomads 7m 02s 067ms with a 7m 00s 700ms run.
This video randomly was thrown in my recommended, and now I'm here thanking you for giving a recent update on the record, thank you

The amount of time I've spent on this this game is absurd. Bowling especially. Truly an unprecedented gaming phenomenon to have sold 83m copies on a motion control game... and who better to tell us all about it than Summoning Salt.
Credit goes to the Wii not the game tbh. Only reason it “sold” that much was cus it came bundled

Congrats Nomad!!
Yeah, came here to see if there was a comment that he broke it
@@emoadnomad congrats ur motivation inspires me
Damn time to delete the video now
A phrase I never thought I'd hear: "he accidentally threw an immaculate inning"
So I've rewatched this video a lot in four months. Probably 10+ times like all of the other summoningsalt videos. But it just now occured to me how much correct baseball terminology is in it. Like everything from an "Eephus pitch" to an immaculate inning, literally every opportunity to talk about baseball the terminology and references are on point! I played ball for most of my life, and either so has Summoning, or he put in a ton of effort into this video that is being glossed over. Really appreciate the extra details!
Thank you! I’m a big baseball fan
@@SummoningSalt Wummoning Walt
@@SummoningSaltonce you started talking about graterol, manfred and buerle i know u were a bb fan lmao. good shit
I wanted to chime in here and give kudos on the terminology as well, and mention that in real golf a similar rule exists as to what the community came up with. The ball must remain in the hole to be considered holed even if it's already hit the bottom of the cup on a bounce. Also, if the ball is trapped between the pin and the lip of the cup, it is not considered holed unless a portion of the ball is below the level of the green. Otherwise, you have to pull the pin to see if the ball will fall in or stay on the edge of the cup.
it became obvious to me when watching the donkey kong 64 video he was into baseball. He mentioned what other big events happened in 2007? Obama being elected and the yankees winning the world series.
I love Summoning Salt going “by the way I’m a big baseball fan” without saying it.
@Jake Condon we need the Foolish baseball, Summoning Salt, and Jon Bois collab
Was thinking the same thing! I think it’s cool that he seems to be an avid baseball fan
"Makes Barry Zito look like Brusdar Graterol" my ears perked up, love the baseball knowledge flex.
Thought the same thing! Like you even more now summoning salt
Honestly i have never watched a single inning of baseball, but i still find Foolish Bailey awesome.
I like how this speedrun, for the longest time, isn't anything game breaking, just absolutely meta-gaming the shit out of Wii Sports

Stumbled across this video for the first time, thought I'd have a look at where everything's at now.... as of TODAY, 31/12/2023, RyMacG4 has set the first WR in over a year, with the first sub-7 run. Absolutely crazy timing.
for anyone wondering, the current record is a 7.00.700 by Shockwave. lowest by an active runner is a 7.16.517 by RuinerRyan, and he's determined to get sub 7

Me too man
When that intro theme plays, I know I'll be spending the next hour with Summoning Salt.
It gives me goosebumps for some reason
Please rise for the speed running national anthem.
Well yea you already clicked on the video
At this point you're just going through trending videos just to comment on them
silence, check mark.
Its is a pleasure to inform everyone that the 7 minute mark has been broken on New years Eve not by nomad or shockwave.
Mark Burhle threw a perfect game, won a World Series game as a starter and reliever and consistently played the game faster than anyone else has done in my lifetime. He really does belong in the HOF.
You left out the fact that he admitted he was literally drunk when he closed game 4 lol. They'd been slugging beers since the 7th
In my opinion, the baseball hall of fame has become somewhat of a joke for how smugly exclusive it is. It’s like some voters get off on refusing to admit anyone. There a voters who literally make of point of voting for no one every single year.
So when Mark Burhle throws a perfect game, he "plays faster than anyone else" and "belongs in the Hall of Fame," but when *I* do it, I'm "wasting everyone's efforts" and "no longer welcome on the team"
@@juniperrodley9843 we truly do live in a society... 😔
Every time Nomad got a record that was just barely too late my heart dropped :(
Happened 3 or 4 times
It really feels like we Canadians are just perpetually cursed by some external unseen force :( really sad ending but SS's encouragement is definitely a positive spin to it, great way for him to end the video!

Hm. Yes. Those are words I know. I know all about the game of the bat and the ball, yes.
Ok, but seriously, am I the only one feeling like they talk a language other than English when anyone start speaking about baseball?
And he brings up foolish baseball. I simply can’t believe it
Sadly, Nomad has yet to get a sub 6. In fact, 12 days before writing this, a man named Ryan was the first. A year before him, a 7 flat by shockwave. Nomad hasn't set a new PB in 2 years, and i believe he quit.
Both myself and Wave have quit all sports in 2023. Wave has now focused on putting out Wii series content and I have focused on other speedrunning/irl goals
@@emoadnomadwish you the best of luck. You did amazing, and I hope it wasnt too hard on you.
it's pretty weird they never separated the two versions into two different categories, it seems kind of unfair to international speedrunners to put a cost barrier like that on competing in such an otherwise easy to find game
Apparently they have made a category separation recently!

Damn I thought this was gonna end triumphantly. Though it didn't, it was perhaps one of your best endings yet. You always need to acknowledge every player going into a record, because each player has a part to play in it. From pushing a holder to go further, or nearly beating it, everyone has a hand in it. Great story, and great storytelling as always. Keep up the amazing work!
Talk about PS1 speedruns, please.
He really has a way of subverting expecations. I was dead certain he'd go "SYKE HE GOT IT ONE DAY LATER" and then he didn't, and it really is just a somber tribute to one who fell short by just the smallest of margins. Edge of your seat stuff.

As of 3 August 2023, Shockwave holds the world record with a time of 7m 0s 700ms
Summoning Salt is really good at storytelling. I started this video with a bemused "competitive Wii Sports? Haha, sure. How does _that_ work?" mood and I ended the video with a heartbroken "sub-7 minutes was there, it was possible, it was *real* for a fleeting moment..."
I appreciate the choice to end on a hopeful note, reiterating that a pace like that has been seen before, and will be seen again. Normally in these kind of speedrunning analysis videos, you only see the one successful run, and don't see the hundreds of failed attempts it took to get to that point. And putting the spotlight on the struggle (instead of the triumph) makes the story feel more relatable, more human.
Talk about PS1 speedruns, please.
This channel is the gold standard of what RUclips is capable of. Whenever there's a new video I feel like I did back in the old 1970's-1980's era of PBS and BBC documentaries: real content, great storytelling, no bs, perfect announcer, and of course always walking away having learned something. None of this is flashy or loud or over the top, it's just amazing content.
very good compaison using PBS and PBS Front line and BBC ,
People go from “what is speedrunning?” to “andrew g!!!!!” All because of summoning salt. I speedrun games (badly) now because of him. RUclips legend
I definitely appreciate this caliber of content and content creators like this have probably raised my standards for what I like to consume

RyMacG4 got the sub 7 on New Year’s Eve 2023 (6m53s)
Honestly I just feel bad for Nomad
Having world record sniped not once but 7? times, it happens in speedrunning more often than you think and it's just heartbreaking that some runners give up after they have been so close but never had the skill to get it across the gap. Nomad, you're amazing and just like all the other runners like you I believe in you, you can do it.
It mayyyyy have actually been 10 but the WR saves were so minimal they weren't mentioned 😬
I honestly think Emoad deserves the record, but I also want to keep pushing my own time down for personal improvement, but it's inevitable he will get it
If you ever get down thinking you got a WR sniped 10 times, think about MR and the number of records the A1A sniped on MK64...
@@Aenorial Yeah I hope he gets all, not to embarrass the community but to just reach the end and prove just how good he is and how much he loves the game.
@@ShockwaveTLS That’s understandable. Best wishes for world record you’re absolutely insane at the game. I’m pretty sure it’s 4 am where you live so get some rest dude
@@jackyfudge5115 im pretty sure dan has all the records now... lol
What an ending!! If you followed salt long enough you know he almost always ends the video with something like "...and this is where the record stands today". But acknowledging and praising the determination it takes EVERY high-level runner to get where they are on the leaderboards has so much impact. Thank you for bringing this up and thank you for positively pushing people like nomad to reach their goal. Stay determined and keep pushing, Nomad, as well as Shockwave. One of you guys is gonna get the sub 7 and you earned it!!
Nomad's story is really reminding me of Matthias Rustemeyer's quest for 32/32, and how he got to 31/32 so many times. Hopefully this story has a happier ending

You can tell that summoning salt loves baseball just from the way he writes this.

Came across this video today, and it just so happened when I looked it up that the record was broken 4 days ago in 6m 53s 867ms by
RyMacG4
I was really hoping Nate9000 would come back at the end
Ah... just got to the part where he talks about how rare version 1.00 of Wii Sports is.
I was gifted my Wii console the Christmas after launch, but a few years ago when a cousin and I tried to play the copy of Wii Sports it came with, the Wii U wouldn't recognize it. :(
Knowing that it's of value for a speedrunning community makes it even more of a bummer.
Maybe sell it to a speed runner for a little cash? Or trade for the 1.1?
Why couldn’t they just subtract the time the animations add if that’s the only difference
I still have my copy in great state with the little paper folding thing it came in. I dont want to sell it because i loved playing it as a kid.
@@kachow5830 Why not just use a pirated copy? We are not talking emulation like when using roms, it's the same game running from a DVD-R.
Honestly 1.00 shouldn't be allowed. Alternatively, everyone playing on 1.01 should just have the 11 seconds lost in baseball subtracted from their end time. It's pretty ridiculous that people competing to be the most skilled in the world have to hunt for a rare copy of the game to give them an unfair advantage.
Damn, I sure hope Nomad gets himself a world record one day. To consistently be so close to the top for so long, to miss out on a new world record by mere hours, but to never quite reach it, is a heartbreaking thing for anyone.
Update: RyMacG4 got the first sub 7 minutes getting 6 mins 53 secs 867 ms on December 31st (New Years) 2023
In case yall were wondering, my buddy RymacG4 has been the first ever to achieve the sub 7 minute time. He got a 6:53, insane
do you have any proof? no hate, just wondering
4:40 demonstrates how truly special the world of speedrunning is as there's a drive into deep left field by Nate9000 and that'll be a homerun. And so that'll make it a 5-0 ballgame. I don't know if I'll be putting on this headset again. Whether that be for the Reds or my bosses at FOX.

I can't believe I actually said "No!" out loud as soon as I heard "had it not been for..."
Getting emotionally invested in the story of a speedrunner is something I never thought I'd ever do but here we are
That's what Salt does. In his core, he's a great storyteller that gets you to care. The great editing, music, subjects and everything else is ancillary compared to this main thing. The quest to beat Matt Turk and the Mario Kart 64 Mattias videos are the best examples of making me care.
Watch the Mario kart one, it gets you so invested and so sad at the end of how someone played it
@@scalychannel5897 its even sadder now because someone else got every record by cheating
Same here. An involuntary "ugh!" was loud enough I was expecting my wife to come see what I broke.
Agreed, getting emotionally invested is a strange sensation. Right at 43:20 I literally was like "Oh NO!" loud enough that people came in from the other room to figure out what I was so upset about.
Watching this 6 months after, Shockwave holds it at a 7:00:300, A 7 flat, so incredibly close to breaking the barrier, but neither him nor Nomad seem to be focusing on the record, and I'm unsure if the 6 minute barrier will ever be broken
Salt throwing around actual sports knowledge threw me for a second - I basically never watch videos where anyone knows about sports (because I don't either), so it caught me off guard lol
Imagine in real life pitching an immaculate inning and being upset you didn’t get them out fast enough
Mark Buehrle in shambles
Who else is dusting off their Wii Sports just to check if they've got Version 1.00 or 1.01?
What does the term mean by dusting off?

man i gotta hop on 1.0 lol
Half way through September of 2023 and still 701ms away from sub 7
one of the things i like about how these videos are presented is that when you do a “he had to land this shot or make this lap or whatever”, it really could go either way. you don’t only focus on the successes. stops it from ever feeling stale or predictable
Talk about PS1 speedruns, please.
Totally agree!
The encouragement for Nomad at the end was so sweet. You're a great guy, Summoning Salt.
I've been working on a project that is completely time and energy consuming. I spend most days trapped in my den working on my craft. When i watch your videos it reminds me that there are people out there putting in the same amount of work towards their own passion. This gives me relief for some reason. I love your videos. Keep it up brother.

No doubt, Shockwave's insane record is a big part of why Nomad's acknowledgement in this video was done the way it was. He deserves to be acknowledged for what he's done yet may never get the WR.
If Nomad ever gets this record you better post an update. We're all rooting for him

here to update everyone that 25 days ago ryanmacg4 has officially done a sub7 record: 6min 53sec 867ms

Yeah their are rivalries but unlike lot of other toxic fields of play, I've noticed that the community behind speed runs are in the end, just a collective to just.. break the damn game as one ❤️🤟
this man deserves it so much. I'll wait for it.
One day

36:10 "He accidentally threw an immaculate inning" is not a sentence I ever thought I would hear lmao
For those who don't know much about baseball, an immaculate inning is one of the most impressive feats a pitcher, or really any player, can achieve. In MLB, it's about 4x less common than a no-hitter.
That alone should be a clapping achievement
I don't know what a no-hitter is either, so that comparison is meaningless to me 🥲

Fun fact: on Dec 31, 2023, the first sub 7 was recorded for wii sports all sports
I actually do remember getting a new copy of Wii sports a year after I got the Wii, and thinking that those animations weren't there before. Figured I had just forgotten after that long, never would have guessed it was a legitimately different thing!
Once again another banger video right when I’m about to sleep let’s goooo
your sleep got rektd by papa johns again 😔
@UClhbjcQUWDfBCMTyzQ63lyw in
this is me at 4am right now
Summoning salt videos are honestly amazing for putting on while you fall asleep. They're just calming in a wierd way that always knocks me out in minutes
Bitch the video came out 7 minutes before this comment how the hell do you know it’s a banger?
EmoadNomad is a true chad. Just continuing no matter what demotivation there was.
IT HAS BEEN DONE! Just saw this video today and went to check the leaderboards. RyMacG4 went sub-7 with a stellar 6m53 yesterday December 31st 2023!
25:36 Haha I bet he's gonna say Matt Tu- wait what?
So close, but so far.
I genuinely gasped at 43:20, that was absolutely heartbreaking. I was hoping so badly to see him get that sub-7
"There was only one person up to the task of beating alaska... and that person was Matt Turk." What could have been.
hahaha, that literally made me lol ^^
I was waiting for it. After he did that in his last video I think I'll always be anticipating that he's going to say Matt Turk haha.
The fact that I understand this joke is reflective of how much Summoning Salt I consume.
I was totally expecting that
Nah, he did a Matt Turk fake out last video, gotta go a few without doing it now.
You are in my top 5 content creators in all of RUclips. You can tell such an amazing story. I love this
Bro the fact that you have a Google doc for every single song that you have ever had on one of your videos makes you my new favorite channel
10:50 The moment the somewhat mysterious music kicks in while Salt explains the 1.00/1.01 difference gives me this feeling I can’t describe. It’s an amazing combo of editing and storytelling about a game we all grew up with but had no idea there was any difference. Felt almost eerie to me, and I love it
Yes, same here :D
I got this weird feeling too i dont really know how to explain. Kinda gave me pappy van poodle vibes
it made me SO uneasy i can't describe it, i for sure thought it was going to end with "every copy of Wii Sports is personalized"
Same, this made me very uneasy, and watching this at 2am didn’t help
hearing that also made me realize i had 1.00, which gave me a nostalgia trip on top
Really hope Nomad sees this and feels encouraged. Rooting for u king.
Also damn these videos make me tear up. The passion and effort put into these games is pretty beautiful
He did see it and commented twice.
I feel what you said man. I actually didn't felt like tearing up until you said it. Then I realized, damn, I actually want to too.
Ive never played this game and never will but summoning salt explains things so well im always interested in whatever is brought up
You have never played Wii Sports?
@@RoseQuartz692 nope
@@Sintuj How have you never played Wii Sports
@@RoseQuartz692 I think being poor and not owning a Wii, then never wanting a Wii because I've never had it. So yeah, ignorance lol
@@Sintuj who said anything about a Wii
huh, i fr had the early version. Had a revelation when I realized that I had never saw that cutscene. Me and my sister would play for hours at a time some days and I would remember something like that.
I love the phrase "He accidentally threw an immaculate inning." As if that isn't the rarest and most difficult achievement in real life pitching.
_gets 3 strikeouts in a row_
“Whoops.”
If they're willing to do the complicated chip-in rulings, you'd think it would be simple to just remove the extra cutscene time from 1.01 submissions; kinda similar to the PAL vs. NTSC adjustments for Mario Kart. At the very least the starting cutscene could be accounted for, and surely it'd do wonders for accessibility.
This seems like a no-brainer. Why should someone's ability to beat the record depend on scavenging eBay?
Yeah I assumed it was gonna get brought up.
Or at the very least make 1.00 and 1.01 count as different categories.
I don't even understand why they haven't done some sort of adjustment to make it fair for all that have 1.01.... it's been bugging me ever since I watched this video, it just doesn't make sense to me.
@@creedolala6918 Elitism and gatekeeping. Just look at the Mario 64 scene -- either play on N64 JP Ver 1.0 or get laughed out of the room. Every game has it to some degree, but Mario 64 is the most obvious example, especially after a bunch of runners went out of their way to demolish the Emu and Virtual Console records out of spite while shitting on the efforts of everyone who ran in those categories. It _literally killed_ the competition on those versions for *_years._* People only just started logging records on them again about two or three years ago, and before that there was a five-year drought.
TL;DR: People are petty garbage that aren't worth your time.
@@CoralCopperHead that's a shame, I usually hear good things about the speedrunning community =(
Summoning Salt's videos are top notch. The music, narration, clips, explanations and the passion of his voice, is just remarkable. Honestly, one of the best youtubers in history!
I love what you do SummoningSalt! you inspired me to actually start running this game due to this video, and now, im the third ever person to get a 7:0x all sports time, and without 1.0! I can't believe i got here, and i'd love to thank you for it. you might see me at the top with a sub soon... :)
Pretty bad tbh, Nate9000 could beat you
@@HiImArcski “NUH UH”
@@Mr.ShyGuyYT shiiii man not even on the fastest version and have a time like that, gl on getting the sub 7 I believe you can do it, getting a 1.0 version would definitely be a good choice if possible and you'll get it. :)
@@tyresefarrell thanks, hoping I can get it soon so wish me luck!
@@Mr.ShyGuyYT you got it for sure bro get that sub 7 !
When your halfway through the video and realize the dates are just a few weeks ago, and not 5 to 8 years ago.
Nomad's gonna get that 6:xx for sure. Only problem is that Shockwave will have done it 3 minutes sooner.
Both players deserve a lot of props, and your documenting skills are otherworldly too.
ShockwaveTLS is a jerk, period. I would honestly like to see the community take their ball and go home if he doesn't let Nomad get the record again.
That was a very strong ending. It took me completely by surprise. It's really the stuff that makes one think, and quite the bold storytelling decision too. Keeping up the insane quality aren't we?
Videos are far and few between but hands down Summoning Salt gives me more excitement for a new video than any other channel on youtube. The wait doesn't even bother me. My absolute favorite. We love u Summoning Salt!!!
Watching this made me realize i might possibly have the 1.00 version of Wii sports. My brother and I use to grind through this game when we were younger and those short "out" cutscenes are ones I've always remembered and thought that was always apart of the game itself. I didn't know there was a second version of the game. I'm going to try to find my copy of the game and see if this is true I will give updates if anyone is interested! Also I really enjoyed this video!
Update: We had cleaned out the house a month or so back and we had found a bunch of discs. Unfortunately I did not find our copy of Wii sports. It will probably pop up someday in a random dvd case since we have so many. I tried cowpokes :(
same 😆 I feel kinda special now
We need an update 🧐
No update rip
Me too! Literally texting my lil brother to check the disc for me 😂
Howdy! So sorry for not giving an update! I have searched through the entirety of my mother’s house and our storage shed looking for the disc. I found other wii games but alas our wii sports is no where to be found. I apologize for a bummer of an update! I hope you are all well!
I'm literally crying right now. I really hope Nomad gets the sub 7 he deserves
im crying too how tf does this guy get us so invested in speedrunners so fast
Same. Best of luck to nomad and holy crap, summoning salt.
the summoningsalt blessing will hopefully take place very soon

super cool stuff man. I am glad to have stumbled upon this content. Very intriguing information and I really like the music for some reason.
its gotten to the point now in this world where nothing phases me. people are out here doing things i'd never even think of doing, a guy made a mini doc about it all, and here I am watching it.
Wow, it's been SO long since I've played this game, thanks for highlighting my runs I did so long ago!
yoo nate! awesome to see you here
Hi Nate, you really got me into running this game back then. I was the WR after your two. Thanks for inspiring me to try it out! It’s nice to see you here!
Why did I tear up at the end? You’re such a damned good storyteller. Had no clue if that shot would go, and we’d celebrate… or if it would miss and we’d be sad. But you wrapped it up perfectly. Well done.
THis was EPIC, I could almost cry at the end.
Everyone wants to see the underdog win and seeing Nomad get so close and not make it was heartbreaking.
