Trihex explains why he\u2019s banned from Games Done Quick Trihex\/GDQFans were confused when news got out that popular Twitch streamer Mychal \u2018Trihex\u2019 Jefferson wouldn\u2019t be attending Games Done Quick this year and now the speedrunner has revealed why. Awesome Games Done Quick is one of GDQ\u2019s flagship events, along with Summer Games Done Quick \u2013 which are held to raise money for several different charities each year. Trihex informed fans on his Discord that he wouldn\u2019t be allowed at AGDQ 2020 due to an incident where he was banned from Twitch in October of 2018. Why won\u2019t Trihex be at AGDQ 2020? The streamer apparently only found out recently that he wouldn\u2019t be able to attend the speedrunning event in 2020. \u201cIt comes with great sadness to inform you all that I can\u2019t be a part of AGDQ 2020,\u201d he said on Discord. \u201cThe Mario Maker 2 block was accepted, but I also found out apparently I am suspended from being part of any submissions conveniently until after AGDQ 2020.\u201d Trihex has been a fixture at the speedrunning event for several years.600 The AGDQ action apparently stems from when Trihex\u2019s Twitch channel was suspended in 2018 after he used derogatory language on stream. \u201cMy F-Slur suspension from Oct 2018 carried a suspension \u201cretroactively\u201d for SGDQ 2019 and AGDQ 2020,\u201d Trihex explained. \u201cI would\u2019ve found out I guess if I had anything to submit for either SGDQ or GDQx? Quite saddening.\u201d His suspension was apparently a surprise to himself and the people organizing the Super Mario Maker 2 speedrunning portion of the event when the news first broke. \u201cIncredibly tilting news. Not much I can do. The SMM2 team is trying to scramble a replacement runner but they may have to drop one of theirs for the 4v4 to become a 3v3 with an additional commentator,\u201d the streamer continued. \u201cAs of now, I have no reason to attend AGDQ 2020, so super doubtful I will go. Wish I had more to report or say.\u201d Might\u2019ve heard I am suspended from AGDQ 2020. News broke to me too, about 40hr ago. Now that the AGDQ 2020 Games List is live *and* issues involving the Mario Maker 2 4v4 Relay Race are solved \u2014 I feel comfortable speaking. Live in 1hr https:\/\/t.co\/C7zMN7dpff \u2014 trihex (@trihex) October 7, 2019 Why inform Trihex of the ban now? Speedrunning fans on Reddit found it strange that AGDQ was only now notifying Trihex of his suspension from the event. \u201cThis sucks. GDQ has to get better about letting people know ahead of time if they can\u2019t do runs.,\u201d Reddit user jbanto said on the news. \u201cIf Trihex was banned, then it is the responsibility of GDQ to have given due notice of the length of his ban. They can\u2019t just randomly decide that bans are extended or apply retroactively on a whim.\u201d It is disappointing for fans that Tri won\u2019t be making an appearance at the event in 2020, especially with the news coming from seemingly out of nowhere. Trihex himself said he was \u201ccomfortable\u201d now about the decision, after the initial confusion had blown over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
