Godfree, I'm speechless. You've outdone yourself. This is ridiculous.
Gamertag Radio invited us for a sneak peek at the venue for Community Vibes IV inside the unopened Club Ecco, an uber-swank "pizzateca" lounge that will serve as a gourmet pizzeria that converts to an epic two story club at night. This place is a hidden gem -- the minimal decor of the exterior could not have prepared me for what was inside. Hell, my photos don't do it justice. I can't believe we're going to have a gaming party at this place, and you know how we do.
Check out the gallery for a look at what you're gonna miss if you don't come out: GameWars is bringing 32 game stations, Infinite Bits is bringing all kinds of retro stuff, SFX-360 is hosting a free tournament with prizes like an Xbox 360 Elite, FuriousGamer is giving away a PlayStation 3, and we're sponsoring a Street Fighter IV tournament with $200 cash prizes plus game giveaways every hour and all kinds of debauchery. It's going to be sick. SICK!
The event happens on Feb 21: Doors open at 3pm: here's your driving directions. Hit up Gamertag Radio for more info. See you there! Orlando Dtoiders from the post-Otronicon BBQ, yes, you can crash on our sofa -- you've got dibs.

@resonance - that only happens if you're viewing the Tritton site with a browser other than IE or Firefox. Their site isnt optimized for Chrome either. It's spelled Tritton and I've already notified Niero.
@Magnalon Just show up and have fun. That's all we ask!
@Magnalon - Dale North, Dan Lingen, Hamza & Jim Sterling are scheduled to be here as well as DToid's Miami Web Dev team. Don't miss this event! If you missed the NARP a few weeks ago, this is gonna blow that one out of the water!
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!

This is going to be epic, can't wait to meet some of you guys.
I'll see you all there.
Do I just show up and say I'm a Dtoider? I've been active on the site, but I've never actually met anyone!
...I have some searching to do.
@Magnalon Just show up and have fun. That's all we ask!
