Dance Dad is recalling memories of and missing #AGDQ2019. Apparently some of Twitch chat also missed me. I have collected most of the intermissions where I was letting loose and having fun the best way I know how. @GamesDoneQuick Incoming multiple links to the GDQ twitch videos.
twitch.tv/videos/3598389… I wanted to see how the intro would go. Already, the tunes grabbed me. Though some were harder than others. #AGDQ2019
twitch.tv/videos/3598389… Streets of Rage 2 has great music. Bubble Bobble...that's a harder one. #AGDQ2019.

Let's talk about impostor syndrome in social situations.
A huge amount of my time at GDQs is spent just walking around the event rooms, seeing who's there, and spending maybe 5-10 minutes at a time chatting with random people.
I meet a LOT of people this way, but I also don't really spend significant amounts of time with most of them. This is partially by design.

So I've been sitting here for a while trying to figure out what to even say. It's not a goodbye but boy did it feel like a goodbye. Emotions are weird. #AGDQ2019
I won't be GDQ staff anymore after this event, but it's not like I won't be there. If you're worried whether I'll still do runs or show up at the events, don't worry - I have no plans to stop going. GDQ is too important to me. #AGDQ2019
I still know it'll be different being there and not wearing the badge that says, "hey, if you need ANYTHING, just ask me. I'll help." But also, I'll still just kind of do that, to the extent of my ability. #AGDQ2019

As promised, here's a retrospective on @GamesDoneQuick's broadcast design!

THREAD COMMENCES
The initial goal was to overhaul how information was conveyed to viewers. The old design didn't have a donation total, or any information about donation incentives or prizes. You had to rely on hosts talking about them or looking at the website. No good!
That brings us to our first layout: AGDQ 2015!
Gameplay layouts: 7 (4 standard, 3 widescreen)

A big improvement, but you can tell that I'm pretty new at this. As mentioned a few days ago, I put that bar at the top just to shove a logo and a hashtag into view. That was silly.
