Co-Optitude Live
"Co-Optitude Live" is a moniker attached to several different kinds of videos involving the Days, video games, and streaming.
Streamed studio recordings
On Saturday, July 18, 2015, a Geek & Sundry tweet mentions a "behind-the-scenes look at an episode of Co-Optitude" with no audio. The recording does not appear to be available anywhere publicly, and there are very few social media posts acknowledging the stream. It's unknown what episode or episodes they were taping, how long the stream was, or whether it even streamed successfully.
The next day, Geek & Sundry recorded the Twister Mania and Pieces episodes of Co-Optitude and simultaneously live streamed the recording process on the Geek & Sundry Twitch channel. The stream was 2 hours and 46 minutes long and gave a glimpse into the process of making the show and what doesn't make it into the final episodes.
These two streams on the same weekend appear to be the only live streams of proper Co-Optitude episode tapings.
Longplay episodes
Episodes 67 (Torchlight II), 68 (Shadow over Mystara), and 69 (Hammerwatch) are sometimes referred to as "Co-Optitude Live", even by Ryon in the intro to the first of these episodes, but they weren't really live. They were webcam recordings of the Days, either in their separate homes or together, playing video games, only lightly edited and made into Co-Optitude episodes. These occurred during November of 2014 when both of them were traveling and unable to record together in studio during that month. Felicia proposes the name "Co-Optitude Lo Fi." The title sequence refers to it as "Co-Optitude Long Play."
Geek & Sundry Twitch streams
Another use of "Co-Optitude Live" was Felicia and Ryon playing games together from their homes and streaming on the Geek & Sundry Twitch channel. These were much less formal and never intended to be proper Co-Optitude episodes.
Most of these streams are unavailable as they were not saved.
The list below is pieced together from social media posts as the only clues of when they occurred. Some mention what games were played, others do not. Some mention which of the siblings were present, others do not. It's possible some of these were not home streams but simply Felicia and/or Ryon dropping by the studio live. The details are very sparse. This list is probably incomplete.
