My 15th event I go to in general will be AGDQ 2026*

Whether I'm a runner or not is still up in the air, just to clarify

Back home after a crazy day of travel and stress from Twitchcon! With this, it now marks 14 gaming events all of which I was a runner/backup runner at which is actually insane. 5 of these were GDQ events this year which is just.....WOW! #15 will be AGDQ 2026 and I cannot wait!

Thankfully made it onto the flight but God that was so much stress

United airlines is giving me the worst airline experience. How do we get to an airport 45 minutes earlier and take 50 minutes to get to the gate.....were still deplaning and my next flight is boarding. Fuck me

True but this is by far one of the most stressful connecting flights I've ever had. They even last minute changed the gate across the airport

Yeh definetly! The GDQX room was such a vibe. I think I spent more time there than the rest of the con but tbf I'm a bit bias on that since that's where my friends are at lol

Also WCK team were so welcoming and nice. It was awesome getting to be a part of the sandwich making segment :)

You and the team killed it Greta :) I didn't get to say hi because it seemed like you were busy each time I was backstage but I the event seemed super seemless and the flow was great the whole time :) def looking forward to hopefully being apart of more GDQX's again in the future :)

Bonus pics and vids here. I wish I got to meet more streamers I haven't met before as that's what I was looking forward to about the event but I'm glad I got to meet Smallant after knowing Crafty, CJ and Plati for a bit now.

My first Twitchcon was a pretty good time! It wasn't necessarily an event I'd be attending if I weren't part of GDQX but I'll definetly go again if GDQ accepts me again in the future & it motivates me to get to partner! Shoutouts to everyone I hung out with, yall are awesome

There's no better feeling than meeting new people and they tell you they watched your past GDQ appearances and loved them. It seriously means so much to hear that 😭❤️

It's so hard to spot people in the event. I haven't seen Kat at all

Amount of times I saw a youtuber I looked up to and was too chicken to ask for a picture with them at twitchcon: 2

I was debating going to block party but didn't feel like spending the money for it

Twitchcon is almost over and I've only met like 1 new streamer I haven't interacted with that I was looking to meet lol. It's so hard to spot people out in crowds I swear....also I need to get better at asking for pictured and approaching in general
