The last PC access was surprisingly successful. Cabbage withdrawn, and all the items were taken out.

We used the Psychic TM. On the right target. And replaced a less-useful move.

This is a miracle. The Helix has blessed us for retrieving Him!

On an unrelated note, a redditor has pointed out that as this is the 151 romhack according to the FAQ, that means we could actually head back and get the other hitmon. Or even go find Mew somewhere.

Twitch programmers respond to TPP. They're both entertained and consider the event an awesome yet practical mega-stress test upon yonder chat servers.

I wonder if the result would be different if things were more competitive... For example, instead of just one game going, you split the screen into four with each running a game, and each user is randomly assigned to one of the four games. Would peoples competitive nature chance their decision making?

We’re always working on improving the QoS of our chat system, and this has been a wonderful learning experience for us.

Somehow I suspect that's manager-speak for "We've been blindsided and are still in full panic mode." Not surprising, though. This caught everyone by surprise.

Maybe I am just too chaotic, but I kinda want to see that concept without people being assigned. As in, the inputs get thrown in sequence (screen1 takes the first input, screen2 takes the second input, screen3 takes the third, screen4 takes the fourth, screen1 takes the fifth, etc) and then see how things progress as people are trying to influence one, and end up influencing another.

I can make a guess... One character will by chance happen to get ahead, become the favorite, people will focus on that characters progression and ignore the other three. One will continue to actually get somewhere while the others will be forever stuck before the first gym.
People like to align themselves with the winner, so while a few might try to pick another character and help them out, their small efforts will be futile.

There is a stream with Red and Blue both being played simultaneously and using the same chat to draw commands from. The idea on that one is that US viewers want the Red game to finish faster, while European viewers are supporting Blue version. I don't quite rmemeber the name though

Also there's another mystery dungeon stream

Also, "We're really unhappy this drew attention to our new architecture and its forced chat delay." Nowhere on Twitch is it more obvious that chat and stream are out of sync.
