A very sorry affair but a lesson to anyone going to GDQ – do not say or do anything political no matter how much in jest it is. The reality? GDQ were embarrassed about their original mistake and just wanted that reminder gone. He was unbanned, but then banned again for tampering with equipment. This was a tale of a group of nerds trying to be funny and GDQ staff jumping to conclusions and banning before all the facts were presented. Shockingly, the conversation was recorded here. PvtCinnamonbun was promptly banned despite never actually wearing the hat. During an Ape Escape 2 run couch members revealed some MAGA (Make America Great Again) hats and put some on people’s heads. An unsavoury character who is now banned rom Twitter, Twitch and even Speed Demos Archive (SDA). Here’s a summary of clips, make your own mind up. His comments on the live stream were unsavoury at best with many commenters wondering what the big deal is.īut, as we’ve said before GDQ want to protect their brand, their ability to get sponsors and to even ask for people to donate so for anyone to be divisive is a huge risk that they just aren’t going to take. His now infamous run on Crash Bandicoot 2 is littered with bizarre anecdotes and over the top mentions of suicide. GamePro011’s ban at SGDQ 2015 is a divisive one but pretty obvious. This is a shame as Werster is one of the most well known speed runners worldwide and would bring a lot of eyes to these events if he was to return. This is a common theme with GDQ bans – certain speed runners are already in the sights of some staff members and any reason no matter how minor it is enough. The most probably reason? Werster was already in the sights of GDQ staffer since an alleged N word bomb in 2013, we think GDQ wanted to wait for any reason to ban him and when he was seen being suspicious in the hotel that was enough for them.
