Let me be the first to (finally) congratulate the Seattle Mariners on their 52nd win of the season, i guess...

in hindsight i can't believe i didn't get more into the hobby sooner. i think pinball got its hooks into a LOT of folks at SGDQ and that makes me really happy bc it's the fuckin best!!!!!!!!!!

so much about being good at pinball is understanding what the ball is going to do before it does it (and being proactive). That sort of recognition only comes from hundreds (if not thousands) of reps. It doesn't feel that far removed from the sort of practice that a high level speedrun requires

imo, pinball shares many similarities w/ speedrunning. so often in speedrunning we're challenging the boundaries of a game. pinball is a battle w/ physics, and physically moving the boundaries of the playfield doesn't feel that far removed from going out of bounds to avoid a boss trigger or smth

one of my favorite things about pinball at SGDQ was watching folks' reactions to nudging and bumping the machine and introducing them to the mechanics of it. leave it to *speedrunners* of all people to think that nudging/tilting the machine is uncouth & cheaty 😅 most ppl eventually came around :)

this sounds awesome

My mariners keep losing ...

BIG congrats to @jaxlersr.bsky.social for getting a WR in Vexx Any% on last night's Creature Corner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

bro they laid off the Doom 2016 developers. that's like if you laid off the studio that made arguably one of the best first-person shooters of all time, like Doom 2016

I keep needing more time post-event to decompress before I'm ready for these, but better late than never ~ Dusting off the Start Streaming button and getting ready for a long-time post-GDQ tradition: it's time for the SGDQ 2026 recap stream! twitch.tv/bryonato

This is awesome

Let me be the first to congratulate the Seattle Mariners on their 43rd, 44th, 45th, 46th, 47th, 48th, 49th, 50th, and now 51st wins of the season! The Cal Raleigh grand slam reawakened something within me. Regular duck posting will now resume

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn

One week left to get your submissions in and come chill with us in the Pacific Northwest!!!

Getting some weird replies to this lmfao

Creature & Congo both clear

Bro they are straight up fuckin on the playfield art for the 1993 "Bram Stoker's Dracula" licensed pinball game

considering how active the scene is in seattle/portland this is very surprising to me
