Thanky so much guys! Appreciate it a lot.
I would have to become one of them streamers getting free gear and free P8 games. Would definitely shave of some of my time.
100%. I was making myself ready to take 2nd spot:
When I got up on day 3 and saw he was 130m ahead.
And at the end of day 3 after 15-20 hours of grinding and he didn't take any breaks as well, but was one sleep schedule ahead of me.
Sadly not. The speedrun was stream on opD2GM's discord channel so the time was official.
And for some reason whenever I stream through OBS/Twitch or Discord my characters leave the games or even crashes once in a while.
Did try streaming a couple of times for 30-60 minutes in our mid sized discord. The the issue kept persisting.
I might try to setup my local server to handle the streaming.
Here we got spot 1-7 and our tele sorc on 10th:
https://i.imgur.com/PrHTRpH.jpgOnly did 8 hours after day 1 and 7 hours after day 2. So 15 total :D
Do you have any idea if you wanna attempt for next season? I probably wont!
I did start getting tunnel vision around 30 hours in. But it usually just makes things easier the following 20hours.
Done this quite a few times to LANs "back in the days".
Some good points. So my input on the subject.
I've done 99s pre and post terror zone. In season 1 I hit spot 17th without starting to push on day 7.
After I hit 99 that season. Actually decided that would be the last 99 I ever did. It was simply that boring, easy and uninteresting. only 3 bosses actually giving exp, easy areas with static maps (chaos, Halls of Pain and Halls of Vaught)
So pre terror zone same effort it would take me 10 days. Now 4 days.
Yes it can now be done 2.5 times faster. BUT it's at least 2.5 times more enjoyable and challenging.
Why did we have such a little amount of 99s before terror zones? Mainly because of how tedious and boring it was.
Would love a SSF league. Would play the shit out of that. But even those which push 99 without d2jsp, has friends or steam viewers who feed them with items. This will never be a fair game in that way.
Did the first 2 days. In that periode of time I spend way to much time selling items and just browsing d2jsp for gear. My "goal" was actually 6 days, as the other seasons it usually took a week~ for the first 99.
No kids otherwise I would not be doing something like this. But Pets and Fiancée been getting lots of love and attention since Monday no worries.

Impressive. Do it next season without bo-barb or loaders for supreme merit badge.

Congrats
- the grind was real and I enjoyed reading the day by day breakdown. Was there ever a point you felt like giving up?

Congrats on the achievement!
Is there a VOD of you guys pushing since the start of ladder? Would love to see the journey.

Filthy. I’d be delusional playing 40 hours straight

congrats. 4 days of sleep deprivation and high focus gameplay is a good achievement.
but (yes, i am this guy) i can't help but feel that 99 is just not that big of a deal anymore. see, before terror zones, 99 by itself was as an achievement, which made being the first all the more meaningful. you being the first in something very tedious and difficult is different than, well.. just being first. personally the only reason i respect this 99 is because he did it on HC before people did it on SC and im curious to how many people see it that way.
i feel like blizzard must give us something back, mainly more complexity to the 99 grind. would love to hear roneyes opinion on this as this record gives him authority on this topic.

99 is an amazing feat but do it again self found no d2jsp. not hard to get 99 when first week of season you have full inventory of skiller, anni, torch, sunders, etc. not to mention end game runewords. not hard at all to fly through the game and not run into any problems
Would love a SSF league. Would play the shit out of that. But even those which push 99 without d2jsp, has friends or steam viewers who feed them with items. This will never be a fair game in that way.

Did you sell stuff on jsp during these runs?
Did the first 2 days. In that periode of time I spend way to much time selling items and just browsing d2jsp for gear. My "goal" was actually 6 days, as the other seasons it usually took a week~ for the first 99.
