About Me

WHI HALOO THUR.

My name is Pendelton (well, not really, but it sounds cool).
I have thoughts on Video Games.
You will listen to them.
Then your panties will melt.
I know, because I saw all this happening in a dream.
Also, I've got a Destructoid tattoo.





No, like, seriously:

The Great Dtoid Drought of '09
pendelton21 | 2:16 PM on 12.14.2009 30 comments




Ladies and gentlemen,
I hope this news finds you well. I am contacting you with what limited resources I have left. In case you didn't know, for roughly the past two days, our beloved Destructoid.com was stricken with some sort of grave tragedy. We have been unable to access the glorious bounty of information it provides. At this time, I know not how such an incident came about. I have been beside myself trying to find out the answer. As such, I've been unable to do things, including process normal human functions; I have neither ate nor sleep since last I saw the glorious green mechanoid that graces our fair frontpage. All enjoyment seemed to have been sapped from my essence. And my Sunday was completely ruined; I had no Sterling article to enjoy, nor dumbasses that regularly comment on such articles to laugh at. But, thankfully, I can still talk to you through these wonderful cblogs. Have you found a way to live on during this horrible drought? Please leave note on you have survived these past harrowing hours. I hope that this blog can serve as a bandage to heal the wounds this past weekend may have left. Thank you, and God bless.

-Pendelton

I've kept IRC up in my client to hold me over. It doesn't work because it only reminds me of how much I want to be here. :( To make matters worse, I had many things in line that I wanted to show on the blogs and forums until disaster struck. The irony is unbearable.

Yeah, I've finally got back on too (and I had no idea of the addiction level until I started to get the shakes and withdrawal symptoms!)

I have a blog I want to post, but apparently we can't post pictures in our blogs yet... so I guess they are still working on whatever catastrophic problem arose!

Ah well... at least I can read blogs or articles that I missed... and wait until things are back to "normal"

I actually returned to the forums today because I needed some Destructoid lovin' inside of me. :(

I was lurking dtoid-IRC most of the time as well as the @Dtoid/staff twitterfeed... seems there's some pretty awesome L4D2-campaign coming up soonish...


also to totally implode the universe they've implemente a tweet-feature in teh dtoid-IRC-channel which caused a lot of shenanigans :-)

and today I mostly played Star Ocean The Last Hope to cope with my temporary unemployment...

I shot myself three separate times during the downtime. Didn't really help a whole lot. Maybe I shouldn't have used a spoon.

In reality, I played the living shit out of Silent Hill: Shattered Memories and reviewed it. Play that game now, if you would be so kind.

Fapped a lot too. The real kind, not the Cblog kind. Jury is still out on which is better.

I waited for forty minutes in line at the post office with really poor air circulation. Could have been worse, I suppose.

I had been working on a blog on and off for the past week and a half, mostly due to me not feeling like writing at all, and when I finally finish it up, the site goes down. What the hell, guys?

Oh thank fucking God this was a site-wide issue. Sorry if that sounds callous, but the last time I couldn't get to Destructoid it was some sort of problem on my end that I was unable to figure out that left me without this site and only this site for six months.

*Sigh*, everything's going to be just fine.

I blamed the site being down on myself for writing in my cblog for the first time in months.

I think my F5 key is worn out.....

The worst part was that I just got back from college on sat. So I thought my firewall/crap house router/newly installed win7, was blocking dtoid! I could access the interwebz fine and any other site, but dtoid kept on failing. I paniced and thought dtoid was being blocked somehow, I decided to wait a few days instead of contacting Niero and feverishly ask him to grace my screen with dtoid again, and patience won. Glad it's back!

@ A New Challenger

I did too! I totally posted the article at night and came to check in on it in the morning, and Dtoid was down.

Thankfully I hadn't destroyed the toid.

I counted the tiles in my office at work.
Then organized my pens.
Then doodled squared headed green robots the rest of the day.

It has been quite an ordeal.

I think my mind has blocked out the entire time period that I knew Dtoid was down. One second I'm on my computer, then suddenly a day has passed and I'm looking at the page saying "Destructoid will be right back..."
I also am now completely covered in Tatoos of the avatars of different people from the site. Is this bad?

I lost my mind and NOT downloaded the first three seasons of Digimon. The DUB! My life was adrift without Mr. Destructoid. Of course, I rediscovered my love of Digimon, but we'll save that for another time.
