Fin: to answer your question on XBL, I can stick around for maybe 3 hours, 4 at the maximum. Is that going to be enough?

I kinda need a maximum time. You're on GMT right? Cuckooo can stay up till (2:00am (GMT+1) and Teh Mantis is in it for the long haul staying up late.

Most of the people can't get online till later because of work and so forth.

I can stay up until about 11 or so, and I'll get home around 6:30, but I've gotta eat dinner at some point. I'm in central time, btw.

What did the original teams posted look like?

Not much has changed. Voltron can't make it. So I made some slight changes.

I'll be posting schedule/gametypes soon.

Dude. You seriously couldn't spell my name right? You took the common spelling of Eric and changed it to the uncommon one? Forgetting for a moment that you actually had it to look at both in the Halo thread and on your 360.

And highest skill is 49, not 43.

Not trying to be an ass, but that's incredibly annoying.

Are the standard/default in game gametypes going to be used for:

Ghost Town:
Round 1: Team Slayer
Round 2: One Bomb
Blackout:
Round 3: Team Slayer
Round 4: Team Ball
Avalanche:
Round 5: One Flag? Mutli-flag? KOTH?

Any time/score limitations need to be placed over the standard gametypes?

I know Multiflag to 3 on Avalanche would probably take forever to complete with a 4v4 and no time limit :lol

You can have my spot. I'll be re-doing some of the teams again. Since Eric with a C is a 49 and not a 43. :D

Fin, in case you didn't see it in the Halo 3 thread:
Brainboy said:
Oh damn... Some of those games are very late for me, 2am - 4am. I'm not sure I'll be holding out that long, I've got quite a few things to do on Saturday.

Is there anyone who can take my place? Sorry for any difficulties.

Wait wait wait. So it says my game is at 5:00pm, but I'm an idiot and don't know how to use the time converter thing. I'm in Michigan, so what time is the game for me?

sounds good to me but wouldnt it be easier say if both games 1 & 2 and 3 & 5 took place at 4, then the winners would play the other winneers straight after then again for the final seems strange to span it over 5 hours when in reality we could get the games done in little over an hour

Me too. But I was expecting some of this. That was the whole point of making a specific date. Getting through the no-shows before-hand and not being surprised the day of. So I'll be sending everyone another message confirming the new team later today.

Ahh, thanks for the link to the time-zone converter in the OP. Now I know there's only a one hour difference for me with Canada/East-Saskatchewan time. That's a bit better because I was thinking there was a two-hour difference and I was really sweating how I was going to make the first game on time. Now I have a little more wiggle-room in my planning. Knowing me though I'll just barely make it. :p

8 vs 8 or 7 vs 7 Avalanche CTF and Bomb games?
Click to expand...


Yeah, we may have to change that. After playing Avalanche last night I think 4v4 won't work well in multi-flag. More input form the community is needed! What 4v4 game would work well on Avalanche.

Edit: I'm thinking Neutral Bomb.

I haven't had the opportunity to play a proper 6 vs 6, 7 vs 7, or 8 vs. 8 game of any kind on Avalanche yet. Me and two friends on my list played DLC Objective and got morons. Lost easily.

1 CTF would make sense for 4 vs 4, but I don't like those kinds of games with such a small group on a large map.

Neutral Bomb is another great option. Any of those three would be superb for lots of players.
