Live-blogging the Games Media Awards!

October 16th, 2008 @ 20:20

Live from the Jongleurs Comedy Club in London’s Camden Lock. The British games media industry is currently drunk. See what happens when some of them get awarded for writing about videogames. After the break. We’re using CoverItLive, so there’s no need to refresh.

  1. Hilarity + 1

  2. Throw a celebrity style strop if you don’t win!

  3. Hello John and Charlotte.

    /waves

    (Is it really just me reading this? :( )

  4. Ah, that’s the way live blogging should be done. At least here you hear when something new pops up even if it’s in a different tab.

  5. I can’t imagine having to perform standup to drunk games journalists, it must be like a special kind of hell

  6. Someone forgot to charge his laptop. :)

  7. What’s annoying is that for live updates of comments we still have to refresh, thus defeating the object. I’m not complaining, it’s still like magic future technology to me.

    I’m mostly amazed that someone in London is still in possession of their laptop at the end of a day!

  8. Two tabs = win. :)

  9. XD

    Good luck, Pat. =D

  10. Drat, this is taking along time to start.

  11. They must be smashed, shame we have to wait until tomorrow for the pictures.

  12. Come on us! We can do it!

  39. Ellie the one that does the Live blogs?

    If so, you were up against SERIOUSLY stiff competition.

  40. Losers! What the hell? I came here because I thought this is where the winners are. I’ll just be getting my coat.

    I love you pat.

  45. I say we kill Bramwell.

    Srsly.

    Anybody got torches and pitchforks?

    Because I have some.

  46. Why feel bad?

    Ofcourse it was a fix, it would have been sexism if the woman didn’t win. They had no choice.

  47. Why do I see written in latin in that Games Media Awards live blogging window O.o ?

    I’ve hoped that I would never see latin ever again :(

    :p

  48. No idea about that, I’m afraid. Looks pretty English to me. Well, vaguely.

  49. Really ? This is what I see : http://s260.photobucket.com/albums/ii21/MesserWolf/?action=view&current=Immagine.jpg

    I’m confused O.o

    edit , lol It was NoScript messing around , now it works

  50. :D

  51. Not one note of consolation for having to sit next to Melville all night. Tell him I miss him and I’ll see him at Christmas.

  52. He was pissed out of his face. Drunk fuck :)

  53. Was it the cider? Or is he back on the vodka cranberries now?
