Greetings, everyone!
I'm VolutinsRage and I've recently decided I want to get more into speedrunning. I was exposed to speedruns a few years ago when a friend of mine made me watch an AGDQ Stream. Needless to say I was hooked immediately. The friend I watched it with used to stream his runs on Twitch, so I would just hang out and watch him. I remember being amazed at the level of concentration and dedication he had to beat one of his PB times, it was super cool.
I've since been watching various Twitch streams and past AGDQ streams on YouTube for entertainment, but now I want to try it for myself. I don't want to join this community with the plan of becoming the best runner in the world, beat all the WR's and get super famous, though there's nothing wrong with that. I'm joining because I respect the art and because of the awesome community that was built around it.
I can't wait to start on my journey and if you all have any pieces of advice, please send them my way!
Thanks! -VR
