Dakin G2

Dakin G2, a.k.a. "The Gamer Hall" or "that place with all those incredibly cool nerdy people", simply needs no introduction. It ought to speak for itself. And yet somehow I feel compelled to attempt to do it justice. Words cannot describe the epicness of our community. We are awesome, and full of chemistry. Games are, of course, commonplace, but despite being as big on low-key solitary one player games, we are willing to be social about them too, and in fact enjoy sharing the joy around. To be in G2 is to be surrounded by love. And explosions. Mostly love though.

= The Gamer Hall Unofficial Oath =

All residents of G2 have their own personal rules that they live by. However, as a group, there are a few important guidelines that help us live life to the fullest:


 * If at first you don't succeed, come back later with better equipment, higher levels, superior abilities, or more party members.
 * Individuality is to be respected first and foremost; just as there is no one way to play a game (unless it's Final Fantasy XIII), there is no one way to live a life. That said, if you see a fellow gamer struggling, politely offer your guidance or assistance.
 * People have the right to form whatever opinions they choose, even on video games. However, not all opinions are created equal. Remember that.
 * Know thyself, strength and weakness alike. Only then can one ascend to still greater heights.
 * Share! Not a problem so far.
 * Be nice, be considerate, but be yourself.
 * Don't forget that you have classes too.
 * Always finish what you sta

= The Straight Facts =


 * Our gender ratio is split dead even, 50-50. 5 girls and 5 boys.
 * We are collectively substance friendly, while respectful of all rules and regulations. We keep the place clean.
 * We have surprisingly good hygeine!
 * We are nice, and we rarely mind being (politely and occasionally) disturbed. We are a very open community. Don't abuse our good natures, though.
 * We like neat, bulleted lists

The G2 Lounge
It is a dark time for Hampshire, when many halls are forced to cope with people being housed in their lounges; yet in the G2 hall, our gamer heritage and tradition is proudly respected, and left intact as a potential gaming space. For which we are grateful.

Ryan's Family Entertainment Night(Formerly known as Amnesia night until we beat it)
The Dakin G2 double(G212 whatup) is the paramount gathering space, greatly improving on the crap that we call the lounge. In the past, Amnesia: The Dark Descent was played and watched episodically by G2's residents(and guests) in this space. Now that Amnesia has been beaten, Ryan has been craving to house more gatherings in our humble abode. These gatherings will feature such themes as Shitty Movie Night and Shitty Game Night, among other things. More to come later about said events.

= To the people who are taking over the gamer hall next year!! =

Fall, January, and Spring semesters are over, and while we will all be moving out of G2, our spirit will survive in K1, where many of G2's residents from the '11/'12 school year are going to be residing throughout the duration of the '12/'13 school year. We encourage the new residents of the gamer hall(I don't think it will be G2, as a group of soon-to-be second years reserved G2 as their stomping grounds...err I mean living spaces.) to visit Dakin K1 and make friends with us! We are all pretty shy(duh, we're gamers), but we open up and you'll realize how bizonkingly cool and awesome we are. We'll definitely track down the residents of the new gamer hall if they don't track us down first.

Love,

Ryan(Formerly the single owner of the G2 Double... I got to push the beds together and everything. That shit was awesome. I'm gonna miss that. Damn, it makes me sad realizing that I'll be cooped up in a single next year[which, by the way, is K109. Come knock on my door. I promise I'll come say hi unless I'm asleep or in a WoW raid.]. )
