This Week on IVG: Week of July 5, 2009

icon_feature1Inspired by that of Rakhi Sawant on TV, IVG had its own Swayamvar show – Sati ka Pati – in full flow this week with the lovely contestant, Ms. Sati, on stage being the only 2nd gamer-chick to ever grace the forums (Sorry MT, Shahrukh Mirza does not count!) Our very own in-house drunkard Daroo, although quick to occupy the first of the musical chairs, was however dethroned soon enough by the almighty Kesri Chacha who, forgetting all about Chintoo’s maalkin, went out of his way to ensure that all the platinum in the world would not be able to impress the lady.

The show had its fair share of controversies including one in which undergarments of both men and women in the audience experienced a very annoying itch and another in which a certain young member in the audience kept asking others if Kesri Chacha was secretly a woman.  This inquisitive fellow, however, kept disappearing and reappearing mysteriously before his question could be answered, for which he kept blaming the hammer-wielding gate Keeper.

But Kesri Chacha’s master plan, involving Amar Juice Centre selling atleast 2 glasses of juice that day, was soon to be shot down when it was unveiled that Sati was betrothed to another already. Kittens were flushed down the toilet and some innocent threads were locked up in the chaos that ensued. Nevertheless, the show continues.

Fiction aside, IVG still remains a land of gaming, and gaming is what the awesome E-Xpress Pricebuster offer on ‘Dirt’ and even more awesome () review of ‘Ghostbusters’, represent. Also, the reckless act of saving damsels in distress by our favourite gun-toting, Xbox-playing politician, Godspeed, only goes to prove the popular (the popularity is debatable actually) theory that playing video games is the only way to become a ninja in real life (“Hayeeeeee Yaaaaaaa!!”).

This week, however, the ever-so-happy land of IVG was also plagued with some rather heartbreaking disasters. It is rumoured that some mysterious desh-drohi vendor ratted about the extremely awesome IVG games pre-order offers which might lead to their discontinuation. Sadder is the fact that one of our members is having a serious family crisis. The IVG community is trying its best to help in whatever way it can through various user contributed items up for auction (here, here, here, here and here). Well wishes, donations and bids are more than welcome.
