I was showed Zero Punctuation by a friend.
I eventually started tuning in weekly, saw the forums, and thought "Why not".

Now what about you?

I also tuned into ZP, back in the youtube days, and saw the announcement that this would be the place to be to see the next one and, like a lamb, I followed. After a while I realised that this was an awesome website and joined. It's a pretty good community here and I love the way the staff dish out punishment, I'd love to do that on my forum but I doubt I'd have any members left!
I'm sure there's plenty of those 'cool kids' that joined before the first ZP hit youtube, oh how I envy your coolness! ;)

Oh gosh, how I envy them too. *blushes*
Yahtzee was too good to miss, and yet I haden't seen his website for years!

The video games section of my Transformers forum (which I think makes us double-nerds) had a thread about Super Mario Galaxy. Somebody linked the ZP review. I wandered over and started watching the other ones, then noticed the "current topics" link up the side.

I was linked Yahtzee's Mass Effect review whilst trolling the GameFAQs boards.

Whatever The Escapist is paying Yahtzee-- it can't be enough. The man can pull in traffic like a hero.

I'm trying to remember how, seeing as I've been reading it on and off since the single-digit edition era. Odds are I saw a link to an article on it in someone's blog or on another game-related forum... though it's remotely possible I stumbled on it while prowling Google for game-related news.

Friend told me about Zero Punctuation. Crysis was the first video I saw, and now I'm a dedicated fan!

I actually was coming here even before ZP and before I worked for Themis. The articles are what got me. Nothing really like it on the net IMO.

I was watching G4's X-Play and heard Adam Sessler rave about how much he loved ZP and Yahtzee and they aired some of his GDC clip on G4. I started checking out some of the clips on YouTube then noticed ZP was on a website, which brought me here.

I found out about this site via X-Play on the G4 Network. I've known for a while, but just bothered to come on yesterday for the first time, and just bothered to Register here just now to post this, and have been watching Yahtzee's Zero Punctuation Videos 1 by 1 since yesterday. So much to catch up on. They've been showing little previews on X-Play, which I've been enjoying, so it's nice to finally see them in all their expletive glory.

That's much like me, sept I joined a bit farther back.
Thanks to G4 for showing the awesome previews and me for getting off me ass to come here and look at the amazing Yahtzee.
