Players use skill and strategy to create stacks of sequentially numbered, ascending cards (2,3,4…) until they have no more left to play. Once everyone is dealt their own personal stockpile of cards, play begins by drawing from a central pile and building up to four “build” piles. The Skip-Bo “wild” cards break up static situations and may be played as any number. Use these cards wisely, for they can really help you beat your opponents! The first player to deplete all of his or her Skip-Bo stockpile cards is the winner! Includes 162 cards and instructions. Colors and decorations may vary.

Tricoda - https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/443/code-777 Each player receives a rack for keeping three tiles drawn from a pool of tiles, which are seven different numbers in seven different colors (28 tiles in total); however, the rack is turned away from you. When players sit in a circle, each player can see everyone else's tiles, except their own. Each turn, players draw a card with a question like, "Do you see more yellow sevens or more blue sevens?" which should help the others' determine their tiles. Once you're reasonably sure of which tiles you have in front of you, you can take a guess — but if you're wrong, you have to start over with a fresh set of tiles...

Hearthstone (Print and Play) - Everyone knows this game, right? This is not updated, only contains Vanilla + Naxx stuff and premade decks + the ability to make your own stuff.
Had a lot of fun last time, will only be there 22 - 25th though.
I know there is at least one possible runner which had a route that was decent but I have not been able to find it.
Just Cause and SOMA still in? Sweet! Happy with my last SOMA run but have been trying to improve my Just Cause run lately. Weird that RotTR did not make it as I practiced the new stuff but have yet to do a new run, it is a really cool run to watch so sad to see it gone. HotLead memerun rip.
Permissions yo.
Forgot I had a new strategy in SiN so did a new run today and got a new WR run close to 30 minutes, next goal is sub 30.
Have also practiced the new stuff in both Deadly Tower of Monsters and Rise of the Tomb Raider but have yet to do new runs.
5 out 5 PogChamp
Rise of the Tomb Raider Any% can be done as a race with me and randompinkbunny.
Hey Samtastic, have fun recalculating frame rules for every NES VC run on speedrun.com :D
I am working on this game off-stream, practiced 1-21 so far and really enjoying the skill aspect of it!
Submitted 5 games but only 3 listed?
Anyway, I have no life so can pretty much do anything between 10:00 to 23:00 CET.
Game Name: SiN Episodes: Emergence System: PC Category: Any% Gameplay Estimate: 00:40:00 Ending/Bonus Estimate: N/A Possible Donation Incentives: N/A Sample run video: Description: The sequel to the original SiN and the only game in what was supposed to be a trilogy of episodes, this game runs on the Source engine and therefore allowed me to completely break it using things such as prop flying.
Game Name: HotLead System: PC Category: Any% Gameplay Estimate: 00:06:00 Ending/Bonus Estimate: 00:01:00 Possible Donation Incentives: N/A Sample run video: Description: Top 10 on every GOTY 2015 list, this 1-man Unity game is the best 3rd party action shooter you have ever played and is therefore incredibly broken since you can fly using your explosive fist attack.
Game Name: SOMA System: PC Category: Any% Gameplay Estimate: 1:25:00 Ending/Bonus Estimate: N/A Possible Donation Incentives: N/A Sample run video: Description: From the creators of Penumbra and Amnesia, the next installment which brings yet another amazing experience, though we skip about 75% of the game with various glitches such as clipping through walls and flying on props. We have recently found some new strats so I expect my PB to improve in the near future.
Game Name: Bully: Scholarship Edition System: PC Category: Any% Gameplay Estimate: 3:00:00 Ending/Bonus Estimate: 1 minute Possible Donation Incentives: N/A Sample run video: Description: Another gem from Rockstar, you play as Jimmy who sets out to help himself and others defend themselves against the bullies at Bullworth Academy. A run contains lots movement optimization together with a variety of glitches.
Game Name: Postal 2 System: PC Category: Any% (Enhanced Mode) Gameplay Estimate: 00:35:00 Ending/Bonus Estimate: N/A Possible Donation Incentives: N/A Sample run video: Description: The highly controversial sequel to Postal and considered a classic on PC, runs on the normal category contains loads of walking and is slower but this category allows for the game to be completed in under 20 minutes IGT! This is due to a glitch which allows you to fly using the shovel. Other then that there are several skips for each errand you have to complete such as skipping triggers, doing precise shots, abusing the unstuck system and more.
Hello.
Am interested in this run, is there any document or anything detailing all the strats, glitches and so on?
I can't wait OpieOP
I have been interested in this game for a while but been waiting for FeurigerIlias to post his route since he said he could complete the game in 1,5 hours or so.
@MartinForslund We did some real life Hearthstone OpieOP
I will post what I have so far,
I have to agree that though the setup with both streams in the same room is cool I believe it would be better to have had the second stream in that red room where everyone just played Mafia, it would be far less noisy but not sure how good the ventilation in that room is since I did notice it was a bit hot at a few times with loads of people in it.
A kitchen, like an actual one where you can cook food. I believe this was one of the best parts of last years ESA since anyone could sign up to cook food and you could get a piece of it if you just payed a small amount. I kinda expected for this to happen during the event but sadly you had to go out and grab food every single time.
I also have to second the filthyness that was going on, it is amazing how hard it is for people to clean up after themselves and I think that it can be improved but only on the side of those people who have a hard time doing so, the availability to throw away your trash was really good and it was handled really well, perhaps what Tompa said about a serious talk before the event starts?
Tech staff, like I said before I left earlier today, you deserve all the fucking praise possible. Working that schedule, making sure everything works perfectly and sort any problems out asap. If I had medals I would hand them out to every tech staff member.
The practice PCs, just like last year, worked really well, having 6 felt like way too few at first but you quickly realize what would happen if more would be available. I had no problems with people leaving the PC they are on (playing CS:GO or whatever) so I could actually practice my game.
After thinking of what was previously mentioned I do have to say that loads of people react to seats being empty or nobody watching, both of my runs where really late so that is understandable but when it is "primetime" and nobody is watching it can affect a runner in a bad way when going back to the VOD. Granted there are games one might not like to watch and there are loads of things going on around the streaming so guess all we can do is to hope for more people to stay around for as many runs as possible.
As for commentators... Having at least one guy next to you to commentate really helps A LOT, if I compare my Dying Light run to my Outlaws run it was a huge difference for me personally, granted I had been up for over 20 hours before doing my Dying Light run so I had to focus on both which shouldn't be too hard but I can obviously perform the best when I can focus more on the run than the commentating part. For me the Outlaws run was better (despite the issues) simply because AMVX took the time from doing tech stuff and commentate on the most important parts with me filling in, it allowed me to pull off the hard tricks in a decent fashion and I would like to hug you even more when I think about it, huge thanks! <3
Got some more stuff for you!
The chairs we used at the venue were proper bad, I could not for the life of me sit comfortably to watch a run I was interested in and people really wanted to hog the couch because of this. We do need WAY better chairs for next year.
I like that we had The Yetee making shirts but I kind of expected more, as in having Humble Bundle make a special one for the duration of ESA, hopefully next year?
