I’d like to welcome a new employee to Gamesville — and a new voice to the Gamesville Blog: Megadestructo of Boston, MA!
As our new Community Manager, Megadestructo will be giving you the inside line on what’s happening at GV HQ, listening to (and responding to) your comments here and on our Facebook page, and helping us bring you the best, most entertaining online games and game shows possible. Megadestructo, anything you’d like to add?
Last week, our Community Manager ohryankelley left Gamesville for a new job in a new town and I want to take a moment to thank OH! for all the great work he’s done and wish him the very best for the future.

His departure means two things: 1) yours truly is going to be taking a more active role in posting articles to the blog (not just commenting), and — more importantly — 2) we’re using our hi-powered binoculars to search for a new Community Manager!
If you live in the Boston area and think you’re perfect for the role, please contact us through our jobs page. Meanwhile, we’ll keep on keeping on — and look forward to seeing you in the games.
Sincerely,
Chris Cummings
Manager, Gamesville.com
A while back we offered up free Poke the Penguin pins to our GV Gold members who wrote us an email and requested a pin. It took a bit to wrangle all the emails and package the pins, however we finally attempted to send out all our pins last week, only to discover they had been returned to GV HQ by the US Post Office this morning (who had an issue with the size of the envelopes we used). While we once again attempt to send the free pins out to our patient members we thought why not open up the offer to anyone else looking to score some free GV swag!
Looking to score your own FREE Poke the Penguin Pin?

Retro Gamesville branded bingo card
While moving around some boxes here at GV HQ when the team rediscovered this gem from Gamesville past, our giant retro bingo card! The card stands about eight feet tall and has now taken its rightful place back in Chris Cummings' office. Check out more from GV HQ at our newly redesigned Gamesville Facebook Page.
Gamesville is spooktacular!
The folks here at Gamesville HQ got into the Halloween spirit a little early this year with some candids of our brand new Gamesville Halloween Masks in action at the office. Check out our photos below, then print out your own, FREE Gamesville Masks for Halloween–or any time!
Our lovely "Gamesville Vegas"
Our favorite "Three-Eyed Bunny"
And our very studious "Poke The Penguin"
Also, our resident Gamesville poet 83klim submitted a quirky Halloween poem for you all to enjoy:
On Halloween night this would be such a scare;
going outside, I wouldn't dare.
A witch with two horns,a pumpkin, a bat and a cat;
who wouldn't be frightened having seen all that?
Orange and black,are the colors of the day;
Dark cloudy skies, treat-or-treat if you may.
Happy Halloween all you goblins and ghouls;
The nights of the spirits, that is the rule.
Happy Halloween, everyone!
When GV team members bring their pets into work, it can mean only one thing…
FERRET FRIDAY!!!
Useless Ferret Fact: Ferrets are born deaf, and begin to hear at around 34 days–around the same time that their eyes begin to open for the first time. Source: weaselwords.com
Bonus Ferret Fact: All ferrets are born white, and take on their approximate adult color at three weeks of age.

There's a new sound rocking Gamesville HQ today, and it's the B-52's first album in sixteen years(!): Funplex.
The band says — and we can happily confirm — that Funplex is "loud, sexy rock and roll with the beat turned up to hot pink!" And if that doesn't convince you to check it out, we can't help you.
Note: You can hear the songs for free on the band's MySpace page.
