Nerd Poker Leader 03/20/2017 (Mon) 19:58:42 Id: 3ad7d7 No. 330370
Clique involving people in the film, television, video game, comic book industries as well as several geek/nerd personalities. Has been around since the mid-2000s. Originally exposed by game journo Nick Monroe (@nickmon1112) on their twitter. https://twitter.com/nickmon1112/status/837872226741465088 https://twitter.com/nickmon1112/status/837869518374465536 An apt description comes from a 2009 press release for "House of Game" - http://files.shareholder.com/downloads/ABEA-4UREYL/0x0x402891/0C74635B-1068-4A85-8422-FB5EB2EF7242/DTSI_News_2009_5_22_General_Releases.pdf "Nerd Poker is a collective of creative individuals from the film, entertainment and game industries who all share a love for video games. Formed in 2006, Nerd Poker began as a group of friends who regularly played games on-line and shared an affinity for identifying progressive entertainment properties. The network has since cultivated a new and unique platform for creative projects, collaboration and business to take place between Hollywood and game creators. House of Game presented by Nerd Poker will be the first official showcase of its kind that will bring the leading professionals from both Hollywood and video game industries together. The founding members of Nerd Poker are Kevin Chang, Justin Marks, Ben Fritz and Derek Douglas, with partners Tom Ham, Zach Schiff-Abrams and Ford Gilmore." http://pastebin.com/VC4h6svC
>>330370 >Originally exposed by game journo Nick Monroe That's fucking Fart. He's known more for stealing other people's work and taking credit for it, and not fact-checking his info. That said, he may be on to something with Nerd Poker. Though from my early recollections, they started out as a group of online poker players. Likely how their nertwork formed and grew through shared interests.
>>330370 That group in OPs pic is a lot more diverse than SJW cliques usually are.

>>330372 >That's fucking Fart. He's known more for stealing other people's work and taking credit for it, and not fact-checking his info. You're salty that stealing other people's digs then taking credit for them is "your thing" and he's doing "your thing" better than you can do. Just get a hobby or something; move on with your life.
Who cares who "stole" what. The important thing is to verify the information and push it out. Has Nerd Poker been caught in any wrongdoing? Is there a problem with anyone in the group other than Fritz?
