PS Friday Night Fights: Working In A Coal Mine Edition
Please god just make it stop
So I’ve been running myself ragged over the last month or so working mandatory overtime. Six day work weeks, ten hours a day, trapped in a cubicle staring at a computer screen. It is not fun. I get home and I have time for dinner and maybe a movie before I need to try and hit the sack. (Which inevitably doesn’t work without pharmaceutical help.)
The extra money is nice and it helps me get caught up on things but it leaves me no time for gaming. The best I’ve been able to manage is watching a movie or one of Trev’s occasional Twitch friendcasts while I mess around with Binding Of Issac on my Vita.
Maybe on Sunday I can get a couple hours of something in between chores (probably more Binding Of Issac, honestly) but otherwise I am in full cubicle drone mode. Which makes the couple of hours I get playing with the Friday Night Fights gang even better. I just hope things slow down soon so I can get back to normal. In short, work sucks and you should avoid it if at all possible.
So, anyway… games!
The Defenestrator
Welcome to the Playstation side of Friday Night Fights! Every Friday, members of the community get together online to play games and all you need to join is a user account. Down below, you'll find a list of games that we'll play tonight along with the times they'll start, the people that you should hit up for invites, and any other information that you may need.
If you want to play, leave a comment with the games from the schedule you want to play and your PSN name. You should also send a PSN friend request to the host and mention your username here in the message so they know you're one of the cool people and not just some random friend request.
If your favorite game isn't on the schedule, host it yourself! You just need to give us the game, start time, and your PSN name so people know what, when and who. It's also wise to list DLC requirements, game or server names, and anything else people might need to join just so you don't need to message it to everyone individually. Last minute additions in the comments here are fine, but games can also be added earlier in the week by visiting the forums and finding the thread with the coming Friday's date. Adding a game there ensures it's on the blog from the moment it goes up.

About PS FNFone of us since 12:46 AM on 09.05.2011
Friday Night Fights is a weekly event where we, community members, cooperate with or murder each other online. There is a forum thread for planning and then a blog post here with the final schedule. Keep an eye out for both them if you want to play some games.

The Guide
To Play
� Keep yourself up to date on the schedule. The list in the forums can change several times throughout the week.
� Leave a message with your PSN name and which games from the schedule you want to play. More people will play if other people are playing, so speak up.
� Send a PSN friend request to the person hosting the game which includes a message with your Dtoid name. If you leave out who you are on the site, they might think you're just a random friend request and ignore you.
To Host
� If you want your game listed on the schedule, we need the game, the time, and your PSN ID. We need the specific game, not an abbreviation that applies to more than one; a start time, even if you're playing "all night"; and we need your PSN ID even if you think we know it already.
� Don't worry about hosting the same game or hosting a game at the same time as someone else. Instead, think of it like a movie theater; more than one game can run at the same time.
� Make sure you have at least an hour to play. That's only two or three matches of the average shooter and those go by pretty quick.
� Check the comments, on both the forum post and the cblog when it goes up on Friday, to see if someone has said they'll play. You might have missed their PSN message or your friend list might be full.
