Hello there everyone! It is I! Thorebane, once again, I am here to give you the upcoming SGDQ event info and links as I do each year!

So first off, if you're new here to these events, WELCOME!!!

This year, we are hosting at and from, once again:-

Hilton Minneapolis Downtown, Minneapolis, Minnesota

• This event will be a mixed of in person, AND online runs!!!
• This event will also be raising money for the charity:

Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)!!!

So... what is GDQ?

GDQ is a semi-annual video game speed-run charity marathon held in the United States, originally organized by the Speed Demo's Archive and Speed-runs Live communities. The two main marathons, AGDQ and SGDQ, are both 7-day, 24-hour straight marathons that are streamed mainly on Twitch and YouTube.

On top of the streams being in English, in the last few years there has been a French, German, Spanish, Russian, and even a full Japanese re-stream, with people giving up their own time to translate and commentate in their own native language. Since 2015, it has been handled by Games Done Quick, LLC.

Held since 2010, the events have raised money for several charities; the most common two being the Prevent Cancer Foundation (AGDQ) and Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) (SGDQ)

Below is this year's schedule! (The schedule will automatically revert to the time zone you're logged in on now!)

SGDQ -- Stands for Summer Games Done Quick.

This marathon is usually held at the start of most people's summers/end of exam time for schools. (Most typically a week either at the end of June or the start of July, again, running Sunday to Sunday).

As of March, 30th, 2026, GDQ has now raised for charities since it began over:

Let's get some HYPE! 💪🕹️🎮

See you on Sunday peeps!!

Hey all. Bit of a confusing one, but wondered if anyone else has experienced it.

I bought definitive edition the day it came out (when there was zero achievements).

I know a few months ago they did an update and bought 90 or so achievements.

Well over the last two weeks, I've completed SoulStorm campaign with all races and half the races for Dark Crusade.

Now apart from Space Marines for both games... every other achievement for completing the campaigns or specific race achievements (e.g. kill X amount with X race) ... just hasn't popped. The campaign ones I've even redone the final mission on SoulStorm for each race (luckily I had specific saves)... and nothing...

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling, different difficulties, just nothing...

So nearly 2/3rd of these achievements, which I've completed over and over ... just won't work... anyone else experienced this?

Hey hey everyone!! It is I! Thorebane!

Less than 51 days now until the big event!

Luckily this time I've caught it early, so..... da--dada--daaaa!!

The Summer Games Done Quick 2026 FULL schedule is now ....

LIVE!!!

What games are you most excited to watch?! What segments are you interested in seeing?!

ONCE again, SGDQ-26 will be raising money for Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)!

Let's go!!! 🎮🕹️👾
