[This Week in the Community is your weekly look at some of the best Community related work that has come from the Community Blogs and Forums.]
This week's setup belongs to mrberns. He somehow got a 56 inch 1080p TV for free, a bunch of consoles and a copy of Ratchet & Clank Future signed by the entire team at Insomniac. Check out the rest of mrberns's setup over on his blog.
Anthony Burch hates you, Knives uploaded the entire PAX 09 panel, everyone is still Double Downing, Japanator has C Blogs and more stuff happened over the last two weeks in the Community.
Paul Soth wrote up a few blogs recapping his adventures while at Seasons Beatings IV. Bonus: He got Daigo Umehara to autograph Shaq-Fu.
kittwalker showed us his videogame themed Halloween costumes from over the years.
Trevkor started up a community podcast called Tuesday Night Rant. Here's the first episode.
Over the last few weeks, people have been partaking in the Double Down. This Forum thread has all of the Double Downs that were done to date. My Double Double Down was so good.
Failcast episode 50 with guest Brad "DMV" Rice and episode 51 with guest Bigby..
Funktastic has a portale that magically transport all of the stuff he collects into a black hole just so he can keep everything he gets. Here's two months worth of swag Funk has collected as of late.
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Nice! I was just thinking that the weekends are a bit slow and there isn't much to read... but you've linked a couple of blogs I've missed! Awesome. :)
It's actually 2 months late, as PAX was like 2 months ago! =D My 2 month BACKLOG of stuff I've been needing to post should be up this week or possibly next! ^_^ And it's a portal now HAMZA? According to CWAL37, I have a very deep underground, temperature controlled bunker! =P
What's very wrong with mrberns' set-up is the fact of a HD TV with oldskool consoles connected to them. Prob best to downgrade your TV to CRT if you want the best picture methinks!
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!
