Thanks so much everyone! Lots of people put a lot of work into this so I'm glad everyone enjoyed the race! Huge shoutouts to Golden for his amazing job announcing, and all the level creators, players, level testers, hype crowd, people donating, audio people, and GDQ staff that made this another great event! It was a blast organizing this event once again, though it got a bit hectic at times xD Let me know if you have any comments or suggestions for next time! If we are invited back for AGDQ, the current consensus is to make the levels just a touch shorter/easier. We decided on having each team start each level together so that it would make the race more intense. For declaring a winner, with a strict point-based system, one team might win with several stages left to play, which might make those stages a bit less interesting since there's no hope of coming back. An alternative for declaring a winner might be to try something like giving a 5 second headstart on the final level for each level that team is ahead by. So if it's 7 wins to 3 wins, the team with 6 wins would have a 15 sec headstart on the final level (and we can make that one longer/more epic). Then whoever wins the final level is the winner. This would keep it hype to the end, but we'd have an actual winner declared.
A thought I had would be as follows: After a team wins, allow the other team until the end of the life they're currently on to finish that level. A couple times a team was somewhat close behind, and probably could've made it if they'd had a chance.
Jordan (maker of Pit of Three Trials) here! Just popping in to say thanks so much to the guys at SGDQ and to everyone who watched and enjoyed this race. It was a blast to be a part of and I'm really glad so many people tuned in and donated! Thank you all! :D
Gotta give major props to everyone involved in this segment. Everyone was on point and made this among the most entertaining runs I've ever seen from any GDQ event.
This was honestly my favorite part of this SGDQ. So many surprises, clutch wins, the comeback, and some really entertaining levels. I hope Mario Maker's around for years to come.
I like the fact that they do each stage as an indivuidual point, instead of the total speedrun like they did last time. this way there is more suspence.
I recognise a rule change. Last time the race wasn't decided by points but by whoever beats all the levels first. Well, I'm not complaining, it helps concentrate ^^
Hated the format change, the objective doesn't make any sense at all. One arbitrary segment of play is the only thing that matters and everything else is just wasted effort, totally absurd. It's a race, it made more sense when it actually had a race-like goal in place.
The idea of this format was just to preserve the hype of any team being able to win at any moment, as well as to reinforce that the race itself is the focus and having a definitive winner is a secondary concern. That said, I also think it could have been done better and I expect it'll follow a different format in potential future GDQ Mario Maker races. :)
I do wonder what would happen if we bring Darbian to Mario Maker race. Either he would underperform in a race environment like Mitch does, or, he could destroy pretty much everything like Dram or Kronic. That said, considering Protomagicalgirl's testimony on how he exceeded her own SML1 PB in just 10 hours, latter is highly likely.
It sucked that BigJon (GameJ06) couldn't make it because he was sick, he's like the most entertaining speedrunner of all. But the pure skills from KronicSauce just blew me away.

I think this would be more interesting to watch if it was done as a series of blind races, elimination style... 8 racers, 7 stages...last racer to finish each stage is eliminated. Last man standing is your winner. Muscle memory building would be better since there wouldn't be rotations...plus easily scaleable...number of stages is number of racers - 1...
Unfortunately I could not watch it live, but this is the best section of the SDGQ event! I could not wait to see this and am already looking forward to the AGDQ 2017 mario maker race!!!!
I don't have MM, but I've been watching carl for a few months now and was told my a co-worker to watch this, and it was amazing! Well done to the teams and to the creators, and all those who supported behind the scenes!
Everyone involved in this run has all the respect from me in the world. Golden, who is an absolute amazing announcer and commentator for the segment. He's humorous and just all around has a great personality for that sort of thing. On top of that, kudos to the players and their respective teams. They had astounding communication among each other and that's important with stuff like this. On top of that, uh.. Chronic is a fucking legend. "Yo, if somebody doesn't get this, we're gonna have to call it a draw", and that was all it took for him to just completely shit on the other team and bring it home. I was glued to the screen the entire run, and I don't feel that way too often because often-times the run is something I've seen before in another, and I've grown bored by the time the fun even starts. I loved this run.
I wish this was an event at every GDQ. This was easily the most entertaining event and it's one I would never tire of seeing more of. . . if only they would make it a regular thing!
@6:44 *both teams getting slaughtered on the first level Commentator: "Carl, you made this level. What do you think of these guys playing it, so far?" Carl: *"I gave them arrows to follow; I don't know what the problem is."* Savage.
Oops. We realized just before the race that they might be confusing so we meant to remove them. I was running back and forth trying to get all the levels on both Wii U's, and get them uploaded for everyone at home to play, and ended up forgetting to remove them from one of them.
Honestly how come they REJECTED Mario Maker Blind Race for the 2017 event!! What are they even thinking? This has been definetely the best part of the marathon, I was looking forward for the next one. Please AGDQ reconsider.
The webcomic Brawl in the Family, which depicts Waluigi in an unusual way. Search for “Brawl in the Family Waluigi” to find a page with a list of comics that he appears in.
They should make this part longer this year. I like the speed rungs, but this had me actually cheering. Chronic's got some seriously impressive skills. Some levels it seemed like he'd played them before.
I remember being told by my mother to be quiet during this race, because the last SMM race I was so loud I woke my dad up. Who had to go to work in the morning. xD
Yeah, it's not an issue of thinking the sound should be coming from the wrong team's screen. It does seem to work correctly on my browser, though. Just wish I could watch this on my big screen TV instead of my laptop.
can we get this crowd , this announcer and these guys and get one big Mario maker block that's a lot bigger seriously great to watch feels like an esport and would totally watch it as one
This is easily one of the best runs gdq has done. Was hilarious, close and had the crowd support all the way through it for instance......''when I say hot you say pocket hot POCKET WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH''....I thought the random sequences of waaahs were hilarious.

How much money Carl did you donate in the end?
He said he donated 100 in one of his videos. I dont have the patience to track down when or if it was actually read off on the stream though.
lugnut1206 Time constraints, they already ran over their estimated time and were told to hurry things up.
Jordan (maker of Pit of Three Trials) here! Just popping in to say thanks so much to the guys at SGDQ and to everyone who watched and enjoyed this race. It was a blast to be a part of and I'm really glad so many people tuned in and donated! Thank you all! :D
inspired by pit of 100 trials?
Asher M
Yes! The Pit of 100 Trials from Paper Mario: TTYD was what initially gave me the idea for that level. :)
Terker2
Thank you! :) I do try to make my levels look nice - glad to hear that it pays off!
Elegant design, Jordan.
You sure can! The ID is AEC6-0000-0269-18BE. :)
Whoever this "Anonymous" guy is, we gotta give him so much props because he donates in nearly every agdq and sgdq. Thank you "Anonymous"!
Anonymous means they don't know his/her name.
unless they say "from Anonymous".

simpsons did it before starcraft, if i remember correctly it was king size homer season 7 episode 7.
Gotta give major props to everyone involved in this segment. Everyone was on point and made this among the most entertaining runs I've ever seen from any GDQ event.
Waaaah
totally took the words out of my mouth, best GDQ run imo.
+Kyle Davis pepsimaaaaan
this should be a competetive esl-sport. it was super entertaining to watch
The possibilities are endless with this game. It's only going to continue to grow from here on out.
Chronic beat so many of those levels lol what a god
Yes, I meant Kronic. Thanks for posting the link so that people can show him some support! (:

More truthful words have never been spoken. ua-cam.com/video/FJV86j1-DuE/v-deo.html
Kronic*
check out his stream on twitch, kronicsauce - he does expert Mario courses without skips, and I think he had a record of 50ish or so full clears

Run Start 04:37
damn it i want to like but i dont want to break that crisp 100
Chronic wins the whole thing. Dude pulled off like half the toughest spots.
I recognise a rule change. Last time the race wasn't decided by points but by whoever beats all the levels first.
Well, I'm not complaining, it helps concentrate ^^
Yeah, I like this better. It allows the loser of a level to catch up.

jordanoh4 My iPad just fell no the ground
That 5-0 run was wild anyway.
I think Chronic's back still hurts from all that carrying XD
streambig strats: rotate as fast as possible back to kronic
Kronicsauce is the god among men, can confirm
Team kronic v Team hotpocket
+HenryTheGardener Shout out to the team player who killed himself repeatedly to hand the controller to kronic.
I do wonder what would happen if we bring Darbian to Mario Maker race. Either he would underperform in a race environment like Mitch does, or, he could destroy pretty much everything like Dram or Kronic. That said, considering Protomagicalgirl's testimony on how he exceeded her own SML1 PB in just 10 hours, latter is highly likely.
yeah,he is pretty OP,needs a nerf
Which one is Kronic? EDIT: Never mind, I figured it out. Black shirt guy on streambig team.
It sucked that BigJon (GameJ06) couldn't make it because he was sick, he's like the most entertaining speedrunner of all. But the pure skills from KronicSauce just blew me away.

More likes to show it to people! \o/
1:06:12 for the Waluigi donation. Love it... I mean, WAAAAAAAAA!
One of the best parts of SGDQ, it was so worth the wait. Also good to see Patty(Pcull44444) to fill in for Big Jon.
What happened to Big Jon? I missed a lot of SGDQ this year :((( (even tho it's still going on)
Kronic is definitely the MVP here, his playing abilities are god-like.
"When I say hot you say pockets! Hot!" "Pockets!"
"When I say WAH you say WAH! WAH!" "WAH"
I'm loving the Waluigi hype during the wall jump segment rofl
I had to resist clapping and yelling OOOOH! because I didn't want to wake up my whole family.
Chronic was on fire the whole second half of this race.
This is so good. Whoever came up with this is a genius. GDQ never disappoints.
Expecting a comment?
Too bad, WALUIGI TIME!
WAAAAAAA
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!
WAAAAAAAHHH
WAHAHAWAAA
Dont believe me just WAAAAAAAAAAA
26:15 That hammer was magnificent.

"This level is made by Dan Salvato" And a year later everybody knew who he was
As soon as I heard that I audibly gasped and let out an "Oh NOOOOO".
Way more entertaining than esports.

This IS an esport you idiot. It's even professional. What are you talking about?

The single most fun and exciting speed-run I've ever seen!!!! Simply amazing!!!! Please do one each and every single year!!!!
I'm sad Dram didn't play this year.
He did play in AGDQ.
I know, but this would have been cool to have him as well.
He did pretty much what Kronic does here, I do miss him. The only thing remaining is the ultimate match in AGDQ 2017, Dram55 vs. Kronicsauce.
He'll be back at AGDQ if the event is accepted again!
+CarlSagan42 did you make a level for AGDQ as well?
I wish this was an event at every GDQ. This was easily the most entertaining event and it's one I would never tire of seeing more of. . . if only they would make it a regular thing!

And he wonders why level creators troll him so hard lol
Great run, but why are the commentator suddenly all silent starting around 50:00? =P There were chatting so enthusiastically up to that point!
The audience in this video is a delight. I love it
Damn that was so damn good. Chronic was killing it.
this has rapidly rose to the most popular GDQ segment at events nowadays
Chronic was like hold my beer and clutched out so many stages, holy sht
Holy...Chronic is a beast!
What a run, I wasn't expecting this level of hype when going into this video!
The ”audio Guy” switching between the games did a great job 👌
begins at 4:40
Who is this Chronic guy and where can I see his videos?
You're looking for KronicSauce: www.twitch.tv/kronicsauce
Thanks!
No problem! I mod for him. Hope to see you around in chat!
Wait, why does Hot Pockets not have red coins in Dreamteam...?
***** I mean I didn't even see them in the level on their screen.
The red coins were removed on one of the two consoles, but Carl forgot to remove them from the version on his Wii U. :P
Oops. We realized just before the race that they might be confusing so we meant to remove them. I was running back and forth trying to get all the levels on both Wii U's, and get them uploaded for everyone at home to play, and ended up forgetting to remove them from one of them.
Because if they had red coins, Poo would have to get them all, because he's not a punk like Carl :)
The epic comeback on the fourth stage...holy cow.
Honestly how come they REJECTED Mario Maker Blind Race for the 2017 event!! What are they even thinking? This has been definetely the best part of the marathon, I was looking forward for the next one. Please AGDQ reconsider.
My mom came into my room while they were yelling “HOT POCKETS! HOT POCKETS!” And all she said was, “What the hell are you watching XD”
The amount of people in the background is really cool to see
This is the most amazing part of SGDQ!!!!!
Those Yoshi stages were brilliant :D Actually, all the stages were, but I really like the use of the Yoshis as they were seeking their revenge XD
I must've missed it. When did this Waluigi WAAH thing start?
When Waluigi was born.
super mario land 1, protomagicalgirl
The webcomic Brawl in the Family, which depicts Waluigi in an unusual way. Search for “Brawl in the Family Waluigi” to find a page with a list of comics that he appears in.
I watched it, and it sounded like Edobean(?), the donation reader, said it before the run. Is this run where it originated for this SGDQ?
In the Super Mario Land run. The game was purple, including Mario himself, so it became Super Waluigi Land :)
They should make this part longer this year. I like the speed rungs, but this had me actually cheering. Chronic's got some seriously impressive skills. Some levels it seemed like he'd played them before.
For those about to Google it, the song is "Yakety Sax", better known as the Benny Hill Theme
Chronic is a fucking beast lmao
26:14 to go directly to the stages
Still not even close. 4:41
they keep cutting it
EllisMoDz115 ah, that makes sense.
X D 99:99
WAAH!
Someday I want to attend one of these live. Thank you for all that you do.
I never knew Super Mario Maker became a competitive game. THis is actually amazing to watch.
StreamBig are 63% winners, Hot Pockets are 36% winners, and everyone is 1% animal cruelty. This was so fun to watch, great job to everyone! :D
New yearly 7 day event, Mario maker done quick, these races are awesome
These blind mario maker races are insanely entertaining!
Exelente muy bueno amigos saludos gamers.....😎
Can't wait for SGDQ 2017! HHHHHYYYYYPPPPPEEEEEEEE!!!!!
The fact it is exactly 1:20 makes me happy
1:03:28 That was the turning point. Streambig.net won it right there.
Streambig -7 Hot Pockets -4... But everyone's a WINNER.

WAAAAAAA!!!
Great Blind Race! It was amazing!
This event. Every GDQ. You have plenty of time to make levels :D Every. Year. This was so much win!
Was going to post start time but battle introduction was so cool 😅
God I LOVE that "handshake" or what you call it that Hot Pockets do! :D I laughed so hard.
We need more of this on every GDQ make it happen guys haha
Wow, what a great run, definetely one of my favourites.
58:50 literally just killing themselves to let chronic go
Although this was a really fun part to see in SGDQ, I feel like the way they did it in AGDQ 2016 was more effective
I remember being told by my mother to be quiet during this race, because the last SMM race I was so loud I woke my dad up. Who had to go to work in the morning. xD
Is it just on my end, or is the sound not synced with the video? Tried to watch the video on both my PS4 and on mobile, same problem on both.
I have the same problem on my Roku. Haven't been able to test it on a regular browser yet.
Take note of both groups and the music note. Where the music note is indicates whose sound is playing. :)
Oh wait nevermind. There is a huge desync during the SGDQuartet section for me
Yeah, it's not an issue of thinking the sound should be coming from the wrong team's screen.
It does seem to work correctly on my browser, though. Just wish I could watch this on my big screen TV instead of my laptop.
They are switching which teams game sound is streaming, Look for a music note on the bottom area
can we get this crowd , this announcer and these guys and get one big Mario maker block that's a lot bigger seriously great to watch feels like an esport and would totally watch it as one
Are these levels uploaded? If yes, please add the level-code in the description. Want to play (and beat) some of the levels myself :)
Double thumbs-up to the sound technicians. Couldn't have been easy swapping between the two groups so often.
Definitely one of the best runs of the marathon
This is easily the best run this year just because of those Waluigi sound effects!
Golden at the end like "I didn't pick a stage" 😹
jajaja que chingon...esta padre...saludos gente....😃😃😃😃😃😃
At 28:39, how'd they get the mega mushrooms in smw style? Doesn't the style have to be SMB1 for that?
This is easily one of the best runs gdq has done. Was hilarious, close and had the crowd support all the way through it for instance......''when I say hot you say pocket hot POCKET WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH''....I thought the random sequences of waaahs were hilarious.
Sethbling's stage is actually entirely done with Command Blocks
And armor stands
That was fun as hell to watch. Everyone was amazing.
The incremental is probably one of the most creative states ever uploaded.
1:02:52 lol "how much time do we have? Alright cool i got you" what a clutch run
Carl Sagan FTW
best speed run event of all-time. thanks for the entertainment
I love just seeing happy little Carl watch people fail his level
Carl delivered the puns, man! So proud of him xD
Only at GDQ you'll hear a mob of grown men chanting hot pockets...
That crowd is impressive, what a lot of peeps.
