Dave just posted it on Twitter.

Get hype, people.

GET HYPER!

I'm confused, are dicks pics okay to post on the beta site? Specifically dragon dicks. Or maybe dragons fucking cars.

Header images for pages gives me an uncomfortable hardon.

Yay!!!

Stop being crazy.

That 1 star Jeff for COD Black Ops Portable was the first 1 star Jeff. I think.

I want to say that's not true, but I'm too lazy to prove it. Edit: Rock Revolution was the one I was thinking of, but if you sort by lowest scored reviews, Jeff has about five one stars. Turns out I wasn't quite too lazy, but it was a close call.

But with my quote I was pointing out that @JoeyRavn may as well have written "If you've seen them all, then you've seen them all." I thought that was funny.

Wait.. so one star Vinny has never been used? Holy cow...

He's just too nice!

@dungbootle: I can't remember the last time Vinny HATED a game.

I really want to know how free the forums are going to be on this new place as they kept saying it's going to be a free for all no rules site while in beta. So is it really no rules in that as long as you are not posting anything illegal like kiddie porn you can post and say anything, or is there some kind of gentlemen's rules that I'm just not aware of?

@crusader8463: Unfortunately the rules still apply. BAH HUMBUG. I say to that. I'm just saying... the staff should give the okay to just fucking go wild because that would be amazing.

So how do we know when it's up?

Yeah, I'm trying hard to remember that as well. I can vaguely remember him being extremely bummed out on Skyward Sword, but that's pretty much it.

Awesome.. I am ready.

Vinny did not like Fracture. http://www.giantbomb.com/fracture/61-20516/reviews/

When did they go back on that? On one of the livestreams they specifically went out of their way to talk about how it was going to be a no rules forum during beta. Maybe legal made them go back on that?

I think it was more along the lines of "Go ahead and go crazy with the wiki" and "we'll be slack on useless posts" and less "do whatever you want where ever you want."

I AM HYPED.

Just give it to me straight. When will this go up?

My body etc

I'm curious how we'll access it once it's up

My secret shame is website redesigns, I can't wait.

Is today tomorrow yet?

This is going to be a goddamn nightmare.

I can't wait.

Always fun to see a new site design, although I'm sure that Dave and Alexis must be freaking out now.

I'm expecting screenshots.

Are we allowed to go nuts and create topics in the wrong area and create pages for random crap? I remember Dave saying in a live stream once we are supposed to test it.

HURRY UP DAVE!

UPLOAD THE SITE TO GEOCITES!

Dave just said it'd be live in a n hour or two

An hour or two to go. Can't wait!

No rules?

First thing I am going to do is request quick looks for every thing.

EVERYTHING

An hour or two. RT enemykite any exact time for the beta site launch?

Shame about the achievement/trophies support going away, but hopefully it will be back.

wait when did they talk about the achievement stuff going away?

Quote from Jeff : Anyway, as others have said, we're discontinuing trophy/achievement support with the launch of the new site. My hope is that we'll be able to get it back in there at some point down the line... hopefully with something that doesn't break every time Microsoft or Sony changes something on their backend.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Hype level: GOT

(I wouldn't normally be this excited, but I've just finished my last assignment of the year and I'm already 4 shots into this bottle of Jager)

I'm almost tempted to resub just for the site beta...and the insanity that it is going to be. At the same time, that would also mean I'd be resubbing specifically to see a bunch of immature gamers post pictures of different types of dicks everywhere. I'd be knowing that while buying another sub.

Goddammit...so tempting...

HYPE GOTTEN SO HYPPEEEEEEE GDLK.

@BestUsernameEver

I am assuming for members, right?

Site staff/mods first to work out the major issues, then subscribers.

OK so it's only for mods for now, I'll check back tomorrow then

Well, I'm ready for things to break.

I can't wait to break the beta site...I mean test how much stress it can handle.

SO MANY BAD IMAGES WILL BE UPLOADED

*Disclaimer, bad as in incorrect, not inappropriate*

Also I might write some reaaaally bad reviews.

No one will be posting dicks.

Or at least, anyone who posts dicks will be first on the list of people to test the banning system out on.

I hear they are getting rid of the quest system and avatars on reviews, this is not good.

If you post pornography during the beta you will be moderated.

This isn't the Giant Bomb launch for goodness sake!

We're allowed to fill the wiki with nonsense though, right?

Totally. Go nuts. Just no porn or gore or anything too illegal.
