I guess playing games. I used to think they played most of their games outside of the office, but that doesn't make the most sense (not getting paid for what they do in their off-time), and we always see videos where the guys are playing games at their desk, and I think Pat recently mentioned he was playing 999 in the office too?
They been filming GOTY stuff which vinny and drew both produce and edit. If those 2 are busy with a task who do you think will be in the control room while the rest of them make content? Who will then edit and put it on the site?
They are just 6 people and everyone acts like they can do better or don't understand that maybe they have scheduled things to the best of their abilities within the time they have.
Playing games.
Theres something kinda depressing thinking bout them playing games all day at their desks in that brightly lit office. I just miss seein their old digs that had a much better vibe and set a better vidya game environment.
One of us! One of us! One of us! One of us! One of us!

That desk is videogames'd up.
Vegeta?
I think the current I Love Mondays is a huge improvement over the old one.
This new one actually counts as entertainment, we get to see the guys do random funny and interesting stuff. (Vinny's Ryan, Wii mini unboxing). The old ILM was just a info dump of what was coming up on the site. Not entertaining at all.

We wouldn't get this gem from the old ILM style that I made, so no thank you.
I'm also in favor of the new ILM. We get far more memorable moments from them than we did from the old style.
Then again, I tend to prefer the more improvised GB stuff over the tightly produced stuff. I think the spontaneity brings a lot of energy and humor to the proceedings.

Yeah. Outside of the opening song, i never really understood the point of watching the old ILM.

How do none of them wear glasses playing so closely to a TV and monitor?

I think a few of them wear contacts.
Yeah that intro was soooo good, I had to skip it each week.

Drew once posted a slowed-down video (that I can't currently find) of his entire workflow showing the editing of an I Love Mondays from start to finish and it was a lot of work. Disproportionately high to what we got in my opinion.
Those that miss the song....just play an old video for the first 10-15 seconds and then the new video. Done!
I believe you mean sped up video, not slowed down.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the perfect example to show that the site's search and lack of tagging/filtering is TERRIBLE....
I can't find it either. I think I will ask him to see if he remembers.

Did pagination change on the beta site video page? The page navigation doesn't appear to be using AJAX (though it does appear to be using AJAX after the page loads to pull in the video links). It should help with those back button woes that comes with purely AJAX pagination.

Haha yes I did, sorry! A ten times slow video would have been a looooooooong watch!
[EDIT - Okay I found it by going through Drew's blog posts.]
All of their online accounts are public, which I wish more game journalists would do, so you can see what they've been playing, how far they are and their cheevos.
That said, unless everyone has been playing nothing but 3DS, Vita and Wii U, no, they haven't been playing games very much at all this past week, which is what they said would happen.
Jeff's been playing C=64 apparently.
I believe they've said in the past that at least some of them do have a separate private account for when they just want to play with friends or not be bothered, which I think is good.
It must be super annoying to constantly have people messaging you or attempting to get you to add them as a friend.

Really? Actually now that I recall, Vinny has worn glasses in some videos. And he was worried about macular degeneration on the bombcast before.
Vinny, Brad and Drew need glasses.

He once said that editing ILM took 2 hours! I think the old style was better at given you information. But thats what the calendar is for now, plus the new style is more entertaining

That beta site doesn't work for me. I always get a 403 forbidden. Is it subscribers-only? That may explain it.
Yes, it's subscriber-only. You had to have subscribed before Thanksgiving to get access.

It is subscriber only for now, but it will be opened up for everyone after the new year.
It kind of drives me crazy, to see all the trash they have all over the place xD
Since everyone mails them their trash I'm going to mail them a shop vac.
