It's like you're unfamiliar with the concept of fun.

Yeah, I like Patrick, but it's like he forgot his mic mix was louder than anyone else's... Just yelling into that thing. Had to turn it way down once he started singing.
Brad is still king of the GB drunks.

Patrick singing over everybody typical....
That was amazing; I bet everybody especially Brad is going to hate themselves in the morning.
I kid

Brad is going to be a hero forever, Patrick stepped up to the plate, and has ascended.
You can't ruin something when 95% of the occupants are falling over drunk.
Ah, but it certainly is. You see, it is only a misunderstanding of the mechanics that would lead to any sort of rude behaviour from the community, although you're much more likely to catch flak in LoL/Dota 2 than you are in fucking Monster Hunter.
But yes, in both games you can completely ruin the game for others if you're terrible. If you don't pull your weight in LoL/Dota 2 (or worse, you just feed the enemy team), your team probably won't have much of a chance. In Monster Hunter, it's game over for everybody if there has been a total of three deaths within a mission. BUT! if you're at least competent at either game, these things won't ever be a problem.
So yeah, it's definitely an issue of game mechanics. You don't know them and you aren't interested in learning them, despite both games offering means for you to learn them in an isolated environment. Stay pleb, son, you missin' out on some hot games.

and that's why you don't mix booze with medication.
He is ruining the Giantbomb event that they are throwing....oh wait he is just having fun. People are such haters.
Apparently you have to quiet and extremely witty at an event with music and booze.

It's over and I don't think there will be an archive.
I have no opinion on it, because I never listened to that podcast. I was just concerned with the potential shit show your post was going to cause.
Different situation really.

I can't tell what "side" you're on here
either way I gave as much of a fuck about her being drunk as I do Patrick
also, excluding being violent/inappropriately sexual/financially irresponsible, I think it's a waste of everyone's time to bag on drunk people for acting daft

I'm on the "side" that thinks she was incredibly mistreated by the Giantbomb crew on that podcast, the following aftermath (remember the "leaked" text conversation), and by the listeners who excuse male behavior but not the female equivalent.
But, I don't want to derail the thread so I'll just let it be and leave it at that.

OK, so long as it's not the "I'm trying to stir shit up for kicks" side, which was my first guess.
I agree, for what it's worth. Like I said, drunk people. What you gonna do. Reminds me of when Johnny V first appeared on the Bombcast and everyone complained- now he's a fucking hero. (Johnny V being hilarious helps, of course)
as for the "leak", consider that's the dude whose podcast got burnt to the fucking ground who was saying that, I'd probably be pissed as well

By the way, are we taking bets/odds on that Shenmue Endurance Run being announced at PAX? And if so, who will be the pair that does it?
To compare the E3 Bombcast with this Harmonix event is reaching when comparing expected behavior with alcohol in the speaker's system.
Vinny/Jeff or Patrick/Jeff. Jeff's the one who didn't finish it, right?

Shenmue? Where are you getting that from?
Unprofessional Friday some Friday in the past week or two.

I thought it was Brad and Vinny who hadn't finished it. In the QL:Throwback of the game, Brad seemed to have very little knowledge of the game, and Ryan had completed it. Patrick, I don't know. I don't think Vinny has the time for an ER, especially if the start doing Fight Club, LOLS, Random PC Game, and the triumphant return to THE RIPPER. Jeff seems to hate Endurance Runs at this point. Who knows?
A Pretty Panda
fuckin' called it, man
Wow they don't have their archives public.
Lame.
Lame.
I hope they go back to the VJ roots. Gotta get that combo magic backkkk. I would have liked Yakuza but totally fine with Shenmue.
edit: Actually good points about Vinny and Jeff. Jeff seems like he's been bogged the fuck down with daily meetings and shit and Vinny has been doing a lot of stuff on the premium side too. Who knows, I would LOVE vinny/jeff though.
So...Brad/Patrick?

Oh okay; I knew they'd joked about doing and endurance run but didn't know they had mentioned a specific game. I guess Shenmue would work. Its mostly cutscenes and and inane mini-games right?
Here's an idea do a premium Jeff/Vinny one and a regular Patrick/Alex one with Alex skyped in. I bet that would be fun!

WHY IS THERE NO TWITCH ARCHIVE
Apparently because of copyright concerns.

Hold on before you go what was the details of this leaked text conversation? I have never heard of this.... What happened?

But Twitch has all that stuff covered.
Ryan posted a screenshot of his screen that was talking about something unrelated to Leigh. On the corner of the screen, an IM was talking about "some crazy girl."
