9/9 ANY% MULTIMARIO GOALS DOWN, SILVER ANY% IS MINE!!!! I really didn't think this would be doable going into G2 but we CLUTCHED THE FUCK UP!!! Final times for the 246: 56:32 SM64, 1:33:34 SMS, 2:35:45 SMG1, 3:20:50 SMG2. 2 days before I leave for the summer too btw

With an any% time I'm happy with for now, I'm gonna be fully committing to the lab. Not only for any%, but I'm also gonna commit to learning Darker Side over my reading week, which should help with the eventual All Moons grind. Expect a LOT of odyssey in the coming while

2 PBs in BACK-TO-BACK RUNS, PLUS 40 OFF SOB FOR A MID 1:03!!! I have no words to describe what the fuck I just did. I haven't had a run like this since my 54 skip in 70 star. I might need to lab way sooner than I thought

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · 20d

So I lose 30 in luncheon to a bunch of really dumb small movement mistakes, and then just pull this RBM out of nowhere. Ok man sure ig

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · 24d

We're so barack (almost 30 in wooded btw lol)

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · 29d

Tragic. All good, this was supposed to be a derust run anyway lol. After this run, I'm very tempted to just put TJOC on hold (or just run it less) and start leaning into the SMO improvement arc already

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 12

There it is. 100% WR by almost 2 and a half minutes. I fear we may have just killed the category chat

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 12

Galaxy enjoyers eating GOOD rn

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 11

2 nights in a row this happens.. I'm not even too mad since it's rng. Just really disappointed

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 7

Any% open really might make me return to SMO sooner than expected 👀

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 6

Might have to push stream back a little bit, I realized I wanted to make something for showing my adventures this summer and I have like 200 photos to go through :skull:

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 4

1 hour later!! This should have been a 6:24 but idc. Getting a WR back in this game within 2 days of starting to grind is crazy. I'm not gonna do much now until Saturday: I'll probably just consistency build attic again and do a bit of bedroom blind for prep. GGs

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 4

So uhh, this happened. I'm now part of a 3 way wr tie with lulu and l4je. I choked untied wr to brushing up against the cage a little bit at the end of 02 LMAO

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 3

SAVE THE DATE: Return stream this Saturday (Sept. 6) starting at about 3pm Eastern. I'm gonna start with a little Just Chatting, catching up with you the viewers and sharing my experiences over the summer. Then I'm gonna do a TJoC SM 100% pb/wr attempt. BE THERE OR ELSE

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 3

Ok what, first day back home and I ALREADY get back-to-back PBs in TJoC??? I haven't touched a computer in 3 MONTHS MAN HOW

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Sep 2

Well, that's it for my summer adventure. What an amazing experience this was. I met so many cool people, got to see so many cool things and made so many amazing memories. It was very hard at times, but we pulled through. Now it's time for another new experience: finishing uni.

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Aug 30

1 more week until the return.. (screenshot somewhat related)

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Aug 19

Last souvenir of this summer journey. I figured I'd get something Toronto FC since the truck I'm working from is right behind their field. 2 weeks left and I'll be back home getting ready to finish out my last year of uni (and getting ready to get some TJOC WRs back lol)

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Aug 11

Another one down. Not giving a thank you to Boots and Hearts tho, this event was absolute ass for me for so many reasons. Just one more marathon event left and then my summer journey is over. Bring on 18 days of the CNE, starting this Friday

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Aug 6

Thinking of doing something cool exactly 1 month from today.. 🎥🐻🐰🐥🦊

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Aug 4

Last event out in Western Canada is done, thank you Regina. This was only a 5 day event but damn it was stressful. I think I was worked even harder here than I was in Calgary. At least I got a really nice hoodie out of it. With this, I'm officially done in Western Canada

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Jul 28

Another event down, thank you Edmonton. They weren't kidding when they said it gets easier after Calgary. This barely felt like it was 10 days long. And now the trip back East begins

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Jul 18

Decided to get something a bit more simple for my souvenir(s) from Edmonton, bought at the big mall. This cool fridge magnet showing all the big locations and an Edmonton display plate that I'll hang on my wall back home. About to start another 10 day event, wish me luck o7

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Jul 16

TIL that if you have an extra day and there's some miscommunication from the bus driver, you might just find yourself in Banff. Only got to stay for a few hours but it's even more beautiful than I ever could have expected. Bucket list item complete

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Jul 14

Final stats from this marathon:
# times wanting to give up: a lot lmao
# pain meds taken: at least 6, maybe more
# cuts/burns on my arms from fryers: 4 for sure
# times getting less than 6 hours of sleep: almost all nights

But the most important stat..
# Stampedes survived: 1

KasualPlayz @kasualplayz.bsky.social · Jul 14

Now that I have some sleep and some time to put my thoughts in order..
