Overall though from a tech standpoint, this was a heck of a lot smoother than PAT5 - we weren't diving back into the code every few hours to make changes! I'm really grateful to all our tech volunteers and hope they look forward to coming back for PAT7!

NodeCG has a lot of information about what's going on, but it's only available to the restreamer, and having the restreamer try to relay all that info whilst trying to get everything else prepped is rough. So hopefully this new function comes together and we can find interesting ways to use it.

I'm also going to add a new feature to have NodeCG to send webhook messages to Discord. One challenge we faced was communication, with orher departments. So this function can automatically post updates on whether the mics are hot, how long is left in a video, when a scene transition occurs...

If anyone has any thoughts on that, or knows of any issues with Twitch over the weekend that could've caused it, I'd love to get to the bottom of it. We had no such issue in PAT5 and whilst STUK has had a lot of changes since then, none should've affected this.

We had one consistent issue this marathon that none of us could get our heads around, and that was the runner's video and audio being out of sync at times. It was fine on their stream, but our OBS then outputted to Twitch with this phantom delay that we'd definitely not erroneously added.

It certainly is

Amazing show, huge cheers for MGS1 and some wonderful performances. Closed with Stephanie Joosten singing Snake Eater and Donna back for Heaven's Divide. Loved it!

At the intermission. First half closed with Donna Burke singing Sins of the Father. Absolutely fantastic. That was definitely an experience I wanted to tick off my bucket list.
