"Hey guys, and welcome to GTLive," shouted MatPat as the stream began. "Where today, I'm missing a co-host." Matt looked to his left expectantly. "This is the part where Steph normally says something, but today, we don't have a cameraman."

The camera rotated up and down, as if were nodding. "Okay then," concluded Matt, "Stephanie just probably gave you all motion sickness. Anyway," he chuckled a bit, "anyway, Jason had scheduled up a second honeymoon with us awhile ago. Chris was supposed to take over for us, but he got sick yesterday." He listened to Stephanie off screen. "Yes, Chris is also taking a honeymoon. I mean, that's what you do for your honeymoon, call in and say you're sick."

"So, yesterday we put out a post on the community tab, asking what we should do for Mario Maker Wednesday, and you guys voted for speed run race challenge. Even though you knew, you knew, that Stephanie isn't good at platformers, and she will still be competing against me today, but you still chose that category."

Stephanie landed on the couch next to him. "Hey, so you might notice that the gameplay's already up. That's because I don't want to be going back and forth during the game. So, you won't see your tweets on the screen. Let me know if there's audio echo and..."

The stream went along with relatively no problems. Stephanie won one race because it was a straight-forward running level and she got a slight head start. Beyond that they gave up on a Penga level, and Matt dominated the other two levels. On the fourth level there was an argument that struck up.

"I'd give this level a 9/10," Matt declared.

"What, no," Stephanie argued. "2 out of 10."

"What do you mean 2?"

"What do I mean 2? I mean I haven't successfully made it off of this first screen yet."

"Steph-Stephanie, just because you're bad at platformers is no reason to is to dislike this level."

"I think that it's a perfectly good reason to dislike this level."

"No it is- What are you doing?" Matt watched Stephanie jump up a series of Bullet Bills.

"What, isn't this what you're doing?"

"Of course not, you're supposed to jump to the left when you begin."

Stephanie continued to hop up the bullets as she made her way up. "Oh, oh, this is the farthest I've ever gotten!" Stephanie's Mario finally popped up to the top and landed by a door. She opened the door and was greeted to the top of the flagpole.

"WHAT?" screamed MatPat. "What? No... No... What?" Matthew had just finished fighting his way through fifty wigglers, two Bowser Jr.s, and a nail-biting percision platforming lava castle section. "2 out of ten," he re-rated as Mario walked down some steps to victory.

"Ten out of ten," rated Stephanie. "Ten out of ten and that's final."

"No, it's cheap. You can skip all of the content if you're just able to bounce around for awhile."

"That's the best part. If you're willing to put in the hard effort, you can beat the level relatively quickly. Let's take this to twitter."

Twitter had a simple answer. "Steph's right. Steph's right. Stephanie's right. See..."

"I still disagree," Matt shook his head and scrolled through the levels.

"Uh, at fan underscore Aiko says 'You two give the best ratings. Have you ever thought of reviewing things from the chat?' That's not a bad idea, uh, Aiko."

"It actually isn't. Um, from the chat, uh, oh! Harley Quinn says rate FNAF."

The next few minute was just reviewing games from the chat. Then everyday items. Then tea. Then, finally... "Stephanie, can you rate MatPat's kisses?"
