There you have it. NARP on May 2, 2009 at Hito's place. You're welcome to spend the night. PM Hitogoroshi with your email address so he can add you to the email list where more planning will take place. Also, anybody who is in the Philadelphia area, bloodylip is willing to carpool if you'd like to meet at his apartment in Delaware (like 2 minutes from I-95).

Also occuring that weekend is Destructoid and Tomopop's own Topher Cantler's birthday! Come out and celebrate. There will be cake. And pie.

Also, DtoidLA sucks, because nobody likes Aerox.


Who would want to miss that?

If you haven't been to a Baltimore NARP, you haven't been to a NARP. We got the amazing pad, the amazing gaming set-up, the amazing people, and the amazing amazingly good time! Check out some examples of how much fun you could be having:








If you life in the area (or not ;) ) and want in on this, all you got to do is send a PM to either Hitogoroshi or BlindsideDork. They will hook you up and let you in on some sweet times.

NARP incoming! Tomorrow we throw down
DtoidBaltimoreDC | 2:02 PM on 11.13.2008 15 comments


Baltimore NARP starts tomorrow! If you aren't aware then you suck. Don't worry, you can make it up to us by joining or giving teh buttsechs! And for all you newbies coming to partake in the festivities, you might want to prepare yourself for some EPIC!

Just what kind of epic? Well for starters...




Oh yes, there will be videos and Karaoke! Not to mention videos of Karaoke!

Beyond that you can expect video games, rotating 52" HDTV, arcade cabinets, toys, zombies, cheese dip (queso, if you are early!), Hito's meatwads in your mouth, zombie board game, Mortal Kombat, alcohol, late nights of giving Hito's gamertag bad player reviews, EDF, Nick's woman trying to get you drunk, breaking your shoulder during Wii games, more stuff, and definitely lack of fail! Only the good may enter. And you can't forget about the lightsaber battles!



This weekend will be full of win! Are you ready?

PS: If you want in, hit up the Baltimore NARP email - DtoidBaltimoreDC [at] gmail [dot] com

BALTIMORE NARP! 2.0 Now with more Bruce. November 14-16
DtoidBaltimoreDC | 11:52 AM on 10.14.2008 27 comments


UPDATE!!! Bruce Campbell will actually be at the My Name is Bruce screening. He's going to introduce the movie and do a Q&A session afterwards. WOOOOO!!! :)



See how awesome that video is? Well now imagine it with Bruce Campbell. On November 14-16th that dream will come true.

Basically the plan is to meet up Friday and go see a screening of My Name is Bruce in Baltimore. Afterwards people who aren't from Baltimore come back to Hito's place and crash. (If you are local, and want to come and see Adam rack up complaints on Hito's Gamertag, you are more than welcome.) Then we all get together at Hito's place on Saturday and Narp it up through Sunday.

Please PM Hitogoroshi with your e-mail if you plan on coming so he can add you to the e-mail thread. DO NOT PM DTOIDBALTIMOREDC!! Those PM's can't be viewed for some reason.

There are several people flying in. Baltimore is a Southwest hub so typically their flights are very cheap. Try and land around noon on Friday and leave around 5:30 PM on Sunday. This is to make things easier for the Hito shuttle :P. If those times absolutely don't work please PM Hitogoroshi and we'll figure something out.

DtoidBaltimoreDC | 2:46 PM on 06.25.2008 7 comments




On July 18th Play! will be coming to Baltimore. A few of us were thinking that we should order a block of seats for dtoid. Tickets range from $30 to $60. Most likely we'll be buying $30-$40 seats. If you are interested in joining us please e-mail DtoidBaltimoreDC [at] gmail [dot] com. No PMs please. Let me know if you plan to attend by FRIDAY. So we can get organized and buy a block of tickets. This way we can all be sitting togther. If you are coming from far away you are welcome to crash at Hito's place which is about 20 minutes from the symphony. Just be aware that he would like you out by 1pm on Saturday. (he's leaving town)

The people that are going are all awesome. Check out this video to see how awesome they are.

 about me

Where the toys are cool and the arcades gleam, that's where we'll be! Whether it is Hito's meat or Karaoke, that's where we'll be! With lightsabers to play and Papa John's to eat, that's where we'll be! Just tilt the screen or take a seat, cause this is where we be!

If you live in the area, join the BaltimoreDC Google Group! If you don't live near us, better luck next time. But check out our friends and see if there's a NARP happening near you soon!
