Friend showed me a ZP episode, not sure what game though. Watched a lot of those for months, almost a year. After a very long time, I made an account to vote for March Mayhem, and after a bit I started posting around the forums.

My older brother showed me Yahtzee's review of GTA IV and after that I got hooked on Zero Punctuation. Eventually I started checking out the rest of the site.

I saw Yahtzee's fable review on Youtube and somewhere I heard that he had stopped Youtubeand had moved to a mystical sight called 'the Escapist' or 'the Escapee' or 'the escroto' or something like that. I tried all three sites (don't try the last one, you don't want to know), and decided to explore the rest of this place because I was ill and lonely one day.

It was definitely a friend showing me Zero Punctuation. Although it was quite a while afterwards that I actually made an account and joined the forums. I used to hang around on Gamespot.

Back in the old days when this chick called "bsangel" used to post Zero Punctuation on her site, I decided to watch one.

Push came to shove, and here I am.

A friend showed me Yahtzee on Youtube way back when I was still in grade 9. I liked it so I watched him. When he moved to the Escapist, I migrated here but didn't actually explore the rest of the site until 2009. I should have made my account earlier...

Pretty much the same story for me. Unforgotten Realms was great, then I just started casually browsing the site, watching Yahtzee videos. Eventually made an account an here I am!

I saw one episode of ZP and wanted to see the rest and then fell in love, i don't really remember how long ago this happened, but i don't rememer Yahtzee having more than one page of ZP episodes.

I found the site because of March Mayhem 2010. I then started watching ZP and got hooked, then Unskippable, then a little later I decided to create an account.

Someone linked me to the EC video on Piracy.

Captcha: "Know Your Rights". This just strikes me as oddly appropriate you some reason.

I found this delicious website through Zero Punctuation, having first seen it through Youtube. For quite a long time I just lurked the website and watched the video's The Escapist uploaded until eventually I made my own account... been here ever since.

Same. I'm assuming that's going to be the case for a lot of people.

I found The Escapist after googling Yahtzee's name after seeing it mentioned briefly on Spoony's TVTropes page. I liked Zero Punctuation and Extra Credits, so I stayed. I joined the site a few months later.

A mix of Yahtzee and Unskippable.
An ex showed me Unskippable and I figured I should explore the site after already watching a lot of ZP.

I came here for unforgotten realms... but I preferred his first series with the really shitty animations, they had a certain charm about them.

Zero Punctuation is what kept me here until i became interested in the rest of the site.
