OK...it is possible that I've actually fixed the problem of the perpetual bannings. In my opinion (if we can keep spam under control) this will represent the dawning of a new era here in My Pants. At least, I hope so.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

I saw Accio Deathly Hallows back when it was featured, but I wasn't really into YouTube and didn't even know what subscribing was x.x But then I kept seeing other people's videos where they mentioned the vlogbrothers.  And then, I saw the vloglovers, and then I saw the Project for Awesome, and only then did I realize how awesome they are and subscribed. And spent about 16 hours watching all of their videos in 2 weekends.

I'm ashamed that it took me so long and so many times haring about them to become a nerdfighter.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

In July, I found the Accio Deathly Hallows song... And at first I didn't realize that it was a daily vlog, but when I found out, I watched all of them.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

I found brotherhood 2.0 when my friends started talking about it (after it was over) I took up the project of watching all of the videos about three weeks ago. I started at 11:29 pm on friday and finished on sunday at 10:58 pm. It was insane.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

I found out about it when Scott Westerfeld put " I Am Not A Pornographer" on his blog. I watched and thought John was entertaining, and I wanted to know who Hank was. So I watched all the videos. big_smile

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

Accio Deathly Hallows is when I discovered them on YouTube. I downloaded the song and since then I've watched their videos everyday. A daily dosage so to speak.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

My friend had been bugging me to watch them for ages and I never had because I just didn't have time. Then one day I was watching What The Buck and saw one of their videos in the related section (It's fate, I tell you, fate!) and so I decided to check it out. Soon, I began watching them. This was all after the project ended, but I watched all the way from January 1st to December 31st in a couple of weeks.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

I found out about it through a friend's Facebook page. Under her "favorite TV shows" section, she had put "I don't watch TV. I watch Brotherhood 2.0. If you don't know what that is, click here." The link led to the January 1st video, and from there, I was hooked!

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

I found them early this year: I was watching charlieissocoollike when he mentioned fiveawesomeguys and how they were a spinoff of fiveawesomegirls so I went to their channel which said they were inspired by brotherhood 2.0 then BAM Nerdfighter from then on

I clicked and was forever changed.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

I found the fiveawesomegirls first, and that was in mid-March. It took me another 2 months to actually watch the videos of the lovely John and Hank; even though Hayley linked to them in every video from Thursday.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

I was originally told by a friend, but then I forgot about it for 5 months or so. Then, I refound the awesomeness that was brotherhood 2.0 a few weeks ago when I got the e-mail from Hank about the thing in Grand Rapids.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

Meg Cabot posted John's "I Am Not A Pornographer" video on her blog, I watched it and loved it, so I started watching the rest.

Re: How did all of the nerdfigfhters find brotherhood2.0?

I dare say the first B2.0 I saw was the Question Tuesday video in which John answers "Who is Hank?" with TMBG lyrics from "Why Does the Sun Shine?"
Needless to say, I was both confused and intruiged...
