Does this twitch streamer live a nightmare? (6 comments)
Posted by cx @ 16:59 CST, 12 January 2026 - iMsg
I am a big super metroid fan, love the game, so naturally I sometimes stumble on videos or streamers of this game.
At one point I stumbled upon "oatsngoats" ... good speedrunner ... first 3 months I watched him here and there, because it was all kinda new someone had success streaming super metroid, there were super metroid speedruns on youtube of course, just like quake speedrunning, but noone is really successful as a streamer doing this ... so at first it was a kind of nice experience to follow him ...
but since those 3 months have past, I kinda lost interest, but I still sometime stumble upon his streams ...
this guy basically 95 % of the time only streams the super metroid base game, maybe with some randomization added for the rooms, but the rooms and enemies are all 100 % the same ... and this guy, to keep his viewers, can only stream this base game all the time ... now I still stumble upon his streams years after discovering him, I am maybe on his stream for 5 minutes, just feel sorry ... I mean, all the time the fucking same single player game ... is this a fucking asylum livestream?

Needs to count up for sure.
I like to time sometimes while I watch, can not do that for shit when its counting down.

And even worse in overtime when it suddenly changes, what the hell.

personally I don't care but counting down is better for people who don't watch much quake, timing is done by item timers.

imo that would just confuse them even more if it hits overtime and starts counting up.

On my stream i had the timer counting up.. i play with that settings. but most specs want to see the timer counting down.. I know am0kchen told me very often to let the timer counting up, but i will let it counting down.. if there are new viewer they exactly see how much time is left. It is ok and most time we have the item timer (like nukm says it)

"Counting Up: 80%" ;)
and honestly, who watches a stream and doesnt know that a match is 10 minutes long?

isnt that what a poll is for, seeing what most people want ;)

all of the oldschool prefer counting up, me included


however, id made it so all the newbies are used to having it count down, so it might not be the smartest decision to follow the oldschoolers here.

Need a " don't care " option.

I can use both, and actually use up ( just in case I actually play tdm ) but it feels more logical to me to know the remaining time rather than the elapsed time.

the dont care option is to not vote?
<< Comment #23 @ 14:52 CDT, 29 June 2011 >>
By QW faerie_  - Reply to #22
Not voting would mean " I don't care about this poll " .
A "don't care" option would mean that none of the other answers suit me and that I don't really care about the point of the oll.

doesnt matter to me but counting down tells newfags instantly how long the match goes
