Poll: Okay, so who joined this site because of Yahtzee?

[Hollock]

I came for Yahtzee, but joined because I always noticed the interesting forum topics.

 

[Dr. Pepper Unlimited]

No, considering I preferred other shows over Zero Punctuation. There's nothing wrong with it. I enjoy it, but it's not the reason for me singing up.

 

[Chalacachaca]

No, I joined The Escapist because of Shamus Young. I really tried to like Yahtzee, but I can't understand a word that his saying.

 

[OutcastBOS]

I came because a few friends of mine were here. I didn't even know who Yahtzee was until a month or two into my existence here.

 

[Batou667]

Guilty as charged. Been visiting The Escapist for a few years now on the strength of Zero Punctuation and Extra Punctuation. I hate to say it, but Yahtzee is better than 95% of the other content on the site.. I tried watching something called "Game Dogs" and also some Dungeons and Dragons animation, and I cringed so hard I think I accidentally Japan. :/

The "Hot Topics" forum soundbites often caught my eye while I was waiting for ZP to load, so here I am.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

I'd say yes... but I really don't remember...

 

[thylasos]

Er... ish. I started visiting the site for Yahtzee, and then eventually saw a very annoying or interesting forum topic, I assume, and joined the forums in order to set the world to rights.

 

[Taham]

I was drawn to the site because of Yahtzee, but after lurking for a few weeks I joined the site because of the community.

Same story for me.

 

[AnotherAvatar]

Wow, so many votes for Yahtzee, so many people echoing the lurker to citizen comment. It's cool we all came to the site in a very similar way!

 

[Nokiro]

I came here after lurking for a few years, and decided to join it cause of the community.

 

[Nickompoop]

Actually, I had never heard of Zero Punctuation until I visited the site. Extra Credits is what got me to join, and it's still by far my favorite web series. I'm still bitter about them leaving The Escapist, though...

 

[Guffe]

A friend of mine showed me Yahtzee and I kept coming back now and then to watch his videos, then I noticed a forum with a few nice looking topics and read through some of the comments. Then I noticed a topic which I really wanted to answer (think it was about WoW) and I made an account. So I found this site because a friend introduced me to ZP but I didn't join the forum because of him.

 

[Elijah Ball]

i joined for zp and stayed for ec. but now ec's on pennyarcade so now its just zp. and jim i guess...

 

[EHKOS]

Yeah but not anymore, now I'm here for the forums.

 

[Sack of Cheese]

I was drawn to this site because of extra credits, I joined because it's one of, if not the, friendliest (aka less troll) gaming forum.

 

[Nikolaz72]

I joined the site because of Unforgotten Realms.... Im not the only one. I know.

 

[kouriichi]

I joined because of the news. I didnt even know who Yahtzee was for a while. I saw a video or two of his on youtube and thought he died or something, because i couldnt find any new ones on youtube.

Then, to my surprise, hes on The Escapist. And im glad hes not dead. ((though from the way he butchered monster hunter......))

 

[fenrizz]

No.

I came here because of Zero Punctuation, but I joined because of the community.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

No, I found the site because of Yahtzee, yes. But I joined because of the people here.

 

[Kurokami]

Came here watching ZP, one day saw some thread I wanted to get a word in on and joined.
