See that thing directly above this sentence your reading right now? Yeah, um, my sources tell me that's what hacking looks like. By "sources," I of course mean the movie Hackers; don't worry, it's highly credible.

While we are still recovering from what can only be referred to as a "dick move," it's obvious we can't get much pre-Friday Night Fights planning done in the forums as of this time. While we're on that subject, today is Mxyzptlk's birthday!

With that said, I feel like we have still got an admirable amount of games planned for today. Remember, if you want to play earlier than say 9:00 EST, EuroFNF will be taking place by the time this post hits the front page.
