No Apparent Reason Parties, NARPs for short, are a long standing tradition here at Destructoid. NARPs are parties hosted by Dtoiders for Dtoiders and everyone is welcome to attend a party. It's about playing games and interacting with other people all in the name of having a good time. 

The NARP groups live! Since the last NARP update, a few new Dtoid city groups have joined the ever growing list. Please welcome Dtoid Belgium, Denver, New England, North Carolina and the super fusion of Seattle-Vancouver. None of those groups have anything planned at the moment, but a bunch of the other groups do!

Hit the break to see what Dtoid BaltimoreDC, Toronto, Miami, New York, Los Angeles, Austin, Portland, San Francisco and Seattle-Vancouver got cooking.
