Educate Yourself's First Ever FNF. Be There or Be Somewhere Else. (Repost)
Cowzilla3 | 9:38 AM on 05.29.2008 11 comments




I know it's a little late in the month but it's finally time for Educate Yourself's FNF. I know all none of you have been waiting to play a single player game on Friday Night while chatting in an IRC client. Will the fun ever start!? I hope so. Here's how I see this going down:

Step 1
Around 10 p.m. (on the East Coast, I live in DC) turn on your copy of Splatterhouse

Step 2
Sign into Destructoid's IRC chatroom

Step 3
Beginning playing game and dispensing witty comments

Sounds pretty simple and best of all it actually is. I don't expect anyone to really be playing with me all night but if you feel up for some retro gaming or you just want to shoot the shit or you want to make fun of me for sucking at doing the slide kick attack come on over for a bit. I need to get on beating the game so I'll be doing that and can promise I'll be there from 10 p.m. on if not a bit earlier.

I'm not sure if this is the official way to become part of FNF but I figured that forcing my way into it by posting a blog was just as good as any other tactic. Grim if you feel so inclined to include this on the FNF post of Friday it would be mucho appreciated. So if you're ready to swing two by fours and wear possibly copyrighted masks come on out Friday night.

Also if you missed it, check out Educate Yourself on Failcast

I'm in the middle of moving, so I'm not sure I'll be able to participate. Still, Splatterhouse is awesome. And so is this idea, it's a great way to expand "Educate Yourself."

East Coast? WTF is that
Wexx's Destructoid Blog
I'll possibly be there. I'm always in irc anyway, but my Wii is in my living room, which is seperated by 2 walls and an entertainment center, so I'll have to jack my sister's laptop or something.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

 about me

Hi,
Names Matt Razak and I'm just a gamer with a Wii and a 360. I'm also really, really, really, ridiculously good looking and a ninja...and humble. If you haven't noticed from my selfless self promoting or my Monday reviews I'm a film critic for a living at a local newspaper in Northern Virginia. I write at That VideoGame Blog but my heart will always belong to D-toid.

Right now I'm working on these games:
Mario Kart Wii
