If anyone else enjoys watching speed runs:
http://marathon.speeddemosarchive.com/
If you remember the old HL/HL2 runs from way back when, they used to host those (not anymore due to new no-scripts rules for the bunny hopping). Had no idea these marathon events were going on until I was randomly browsing youtube for speed runs earlier this year. I enjoy these live runs even more than actual world record runs, because they comment on what they're doing, and it's more fun. They're running Portal 2 on Thursday which should be great, Left 4 Dead Mon/Tues-ish, and lots of other games.
Plus, they're taking donations, 100% toward cancer research with chances to win prizes or get challenges during runs. You can watch without donating and the runs all go on youtube eventually, but it goes for a good cause.
p.s. Here are their live runs from previous events for HL (in 49:48) and Portal (out-of-bounds run, 12:11!!!
)
