Destructoid

Alright, I'm calling a 5 minute time-out on gaming for a family photo moment!

Ten days ago Destructoid celebrated it's one year anniversary and, as noted in my long-ass sappy keynote, we flew everybody down for a 4-day extended weekend of proper Miami-style partying: Pawn Shop Thursday, Studio A Friday, Bacardi B-Live Saturday, and recovery on South Beach Sunday. Even with over a hundred photos, this does not accurately describe why we call it THE BEST WEEKEND EVAR! My only regret is that we have to wait another 365 days to do it again. I want to thank everybody who came down our friends at MiamiNights who organized the party and also celebrated one with us: here's their gallery from one of the nights. Next Dtoid party stop: PAX, baby!

drinking robots. awsome.

Toneman at 03/26/2007 16:24

I'll be at PAX, ready to party!

Hamza CTZ Aziz at 03/26/2007 16:25

Good times.

Topher Cantler at 03/26/2007 16:30

EPIC.

Fronz at 03/26/2007 16:33

second to last picture is still the best

Chad Concelmo at 03/26/2007 16:34

Like Gandalf vs. the Witch King epic!

Topher Cantler at 03/26/2007 16:35

Yes, what Chad said. These pics are Ontinental.

pkhilson at 03/26/2007 16:41

Damn, you guys prove once again that you know how to have a good time. It's so rare to see people who play loads of video games, yet still have a social life. Where I live, it's hard to find someone who knows the difference between Gears of War and God of War AND parties on the weekends.

Mabec at 03/26/2007 16:41

Also, hell-uvalot of images...

Niero at 03/26/2007 16:45

That's just the thing. We all have day jobs; Dtoid is something we do for fun. If its not fun at the end of the day, it ain't worth the fat co-location bill :)

Mxyzptlk at 03/26/2007 16:54

Looks like you guys had a blast, wish I could have been there!

BritiniMartini at 03/26/2007 16:57

holy...
You guys used a lot of my pics.

lol <3 dtoid :)

MIKEisONfire84 at 03/26/2007 16:58

I'm jealous of the weather in those pics.It's nice out here in upstate,NY but not lay out on the beach nice.Wish I was there.

CypherVR at 03/26/2007 16:58

holy shit, FTW!

Crunshii at 03/26/2007 17:06

woah... a frenchy is booty-dancing niero @_@;

scrap at 03/26/2007 17:07

boobies!

KyleGamgee at 03/26/2007 17:09

Wow Britani Martini...

That's all, just Wow.

Danzuke at 03/26/2007 17:17

I know I say this all the time... but I LOVE that damn jacket Niero

pkhilson at 03/26/2007 17:40

Atta boy Ron, get 'em while they're passed out! haha

Who's the guy with the Bud Light?!?! American Bud Lights are like water!

Sharpless at 03/26/2007 18:08

So, who is the lighter-haired woman who's in a lot of pictures but isn't Collette or Britany? I'm so confused.

And jealous. Damn you all. I want to be touched by Ron's beautiful racist tongue.

tiffsauce at 03/26/2007 18:22

the 'light-haired woman' is me! the ma ma of daddy and baby plushtoid ^_^

kupo! kupo! <3
ONTINENTAL FTW!

Oni at 03/26/2007 18:27

Holy crap. Looks like you guys really tore it up.

I'm seriously going to have to try to get down there for the 2-year anniversary! Niero, can I borrow your couch?

mdvalenz at 03/26/2007 19:06

I finally finished it. My small, and late (midterms, what can you do?) present to Destructoid. Seemed like a good place to post it.

Yeah, I know. I'm not that good. Based off a picture of Iron Man from the Civil War Poster Book.

The party looked like fun, did anyone remember it the next day? :-D

Mabec at 03/26/2007 19:07

bitches & suches

Niero at 03/26/2007 19:12

mdvalenz!!!

BritiniMartini at 03/26/2007 19:15

I remembered it :P I was gone... but not THAT gone. Ron was the best part :P

mdvalenz at 03/26/2007 19:15

Glad you like it :-)

parrothead at 03/26/2007 19:18

It was a blast! Good to meet everyone, we partied hard. It is always a good night when you wake up and look at your camera and only remember taking about half the pictures! That is me in Pic #14 w Britini.

BritiniMartini at 03/26/2007 19:19

Look at what they're reading. lmfao...

and reeeeeeeee mix

(uh uh - niero)

Niero at 03/26/2007 19:25

Faith at 03/26/2007 19:48

I missed out on so much like drunken girls. (Yes, drunken girls is what I said)

PAX is going to rule - all the Dtoid chicks are going to have a slumber party in one room. NO BOYS ALLOWED!

Heavy_Kevy at 03/26/2007 20:08

after seeing this much fun, it makes me even more bummed that I can't go to PAX....I'm a sooper sad panda.

BritiniMartini at 03/26/2007 20:20

haha Faith... If Ron allows it, I'm totally down.

But ron's a girly girl deep down anyway...

so :)

Colette Bennett at 03/26/2007 20:28

This makes me want to do it all over again.

Van the Nasty at 03/26/2007 21:45

All I have to say about Britini Martini,if I may be so bold, flap,flap,flap...flap,flap,flap...ahhhh. Dang Ron I hope you treat that fine young thang like gold. No disrespect to Ms. Martini intended Im just overwhelmed by her perfect ratio of geek to hot.

Sharpless at 03/26/2007 22:30

"Flap"? My god, man, what are you doing?!

Unless you meant "fap." Pervert. I only have eyes for Jessica Chobot, but that's only because I can't stand her. Figure that logic out, my tiny motherfuckers. And I wish to grow a womb and simultaneously have Colette and Tiff's babies.

End comment.

Niero at 03/26/2007 23:02

take a number ;)

mdvalenz at 03/27/2007 01:20

I'll take number 3, is 3 taken yet?? How about Britini? Has she started giving out numbers? ;P

BritiniMartini at 03/27/2007 01:39

haha thanks Van. Ron treats me perfect :)

and you should get that "flap" checked out

ha

atheistium at 03/27/2007 01:55

hahaha Neiro never looks tooo drunk hahaha. Bless <3

Topher Cantler at 03/27/2007 01:57

WOW... Mdvalenz, that shit is hot!

Dyson at 03/27/2007 02:24

That's because poor Niero always has to drive. At Pax, I'm buying him a chauffer so he can get wasted (finally).

(That "$$$" picture will be the death of me, I miss you guys already. Miami was - ready .tiff - soooooooo aweeeeeeesome!)

Lezbro at 03/27/2007 04:47

Sooooo...

Basically one chick works at this place.

Lezbro at 03/27/2007 04:52

Camhos don't count.

Van the Nasty at 03/27/2007 07:48

My mother was a Brown-headed Cowbird and my father a very lonely ornithologist, hence the flapping.

pkhilson at 03/27/2007 17:51

@Lezbro:

Aaaaand?

Niero at 03/28/2007 17:36

Faith and Marley are the other two (not pictured) female Dtoid authors. Marley got snowed in and Faith couldn't make it down from Canada, but you'll see them in future events

BritiniMartini at 02/26/2008 22:39

this was way too much fun...
