The 95 Degrees Mashup 2020 was a live-streamed, interactive event celebrating 95 Degrees' 4th anniversary - consisting of announcements, awards, speeches, live quizzes and more.

This was the first Mashup event to be streamed on Twitch. The change was made to ensure a lower latency - however, due to Nath's Twitch channel not having access to stream re-encoding (which provides access to lower quality options in the event of buffering or poor quality connections), all viewers were forced to watch the stream in full 1080p, 60fps quality - leaving some viewers out of sync and experiencing buffering.

Additions

As the event was now streamed on Twitch, viewers were now able to use Twitch's native polls UI for Trivia segments in the pre-show and the main event.

2020 marked the first year of the Twitch Chat Printer, allowing viewers to type messages into the Twitch chat and watch it get printed in real time by a small POS-type printer on Nath's desk.

2020 was also the first and only year to feature Gartic On Stream as a pre-show segment, allowing viewers to guess the titles of simple drawings together by typing guesses into the Twitch chat.

Superlatives were replaced with the 95 Degrees Mashup Awards. For the first time, members of the community were invited to present awards in the show. New award title animations with particle backgrounds were introduced, paired with background music.
