Community Game Night: Mission Successful! Thanks

Community Game Night: Mission Successful! Thanks

When we set out to create our very first official Nerd Appropriate community game night, we didn’t really know what to expect. In all honesty we were just looking for an excuse to meet some new players, hang out with friends, and shoot some virtual bad guys. We’re elated to say that our community game night went better than we could have ever anticipated. With dozens of players from all over the world signing up to have some fun, we were able to run five eight person squads for over four hours with new players filtering in and out!

Comic-Con 2012: The Nerdist Channel’s New Lineup Highlights Creativity

We love what both Geek and Sundry and The Nerdist are doing for pop-culture.  By highlighting creative and intelligent individuals that typically don’t get a ton of attention, Nerdist Industries lets people know that it’s okay to be an art nerd, or a science nerd.  Nerdist lets you know that it’s totally okay to be exactly who or what you want to be.

Comic-Con 2012: Epic’s Fortnite – Constructing a Whole New World of Adventure

Epic Games had a huge presence at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con with both Gears of War: Judgement, and Fortnite showing off their goodies. Until this year’s SDCC, we knew very little of what Fornite was actually about, how it would look, or really, how in the heck it would play. Well, we have some great news for you, Fortnite looks super-slick and has the capacity to be more fun than any of us really deserve.

Ten years after its premature cancellation, Firefly is more popular than ever with “Jane hat” wearing fans all over the ‘verse.

While I sit here in the hotel room waiting for the rest of the crew to stop snoring (it’s really amazing.. I should record it) and get ready, I figured I’d let some of our new followers know a wee bit about our podcast Rated NA. We’ve been recording The Rated NA Podcast for nearly two years and still love doing it *almost* each and every week.

Comic-Con 2012: This is Preview Night!

As soon as we got into the door I turned to a few of the folks with me and said “Don’t get used to this, it’s about to get a lot more crowded in here.” Within about 15 minutes standard walking became the “con shuffle”, a sort of rhythmic zombie stride that is nowhere close to actual walking. It’s hard to believe there will be MORE people here tomorrow.
