Gaming-Age vs. Opa-Ages

We all know the date and time, but do not know what games, or how many, we will be playing. So how about we finalize it right now.

Here's what I have thinking:

Three games are too little, and nine games are too much.

We go for a Best of Five series that includes:

Team Slayer
Team Oddball
Territories
Assault
Capture The Flag

We need to pick the map for each type of game and I'm thinking we can do this one of two ways.

The first way is use a random number generator, put the flags best suited for each game into a number list and pick from it.

The second way is to make said list and make a thread asking someone who isn't in the game to come up with the first number off of the top of their head.

We can do the Best of Three if you want, but I feel five games will give us some decent gaming.

Anyone representing the Gaming-Age clan, please let me know in this thread what your clan's decision will be. We are one day removed from the big showdown, so if you have an input on this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Sincerely,

SuicideMW
Opa-Ages Halo 2 Clan
 
Considering the agreement of the initial conditions, wouldn't a disagreement by GA to the renewed "conditions" therefore trigger an automatic forfeit of OA? :P
 
Actually, no one ever officially agreed to the nine games. When I mean "no one", I mean the GA brass. None of you, including your unofficial leader WillCo, ever got back to myself and the OA clan about said terms. So no, that doesn't signify an automatic forfeit. It just means you have been lazy in returning our calls. So, if you want the nine games, we'll do the nine games. It's better that both sides know the finalized plans so we don't go into the games tomorrow wondering what we are to do.
 
This is 8v8 right? I haven't been keeping up with the goings on of these forum matches.

Instead of Team Oddball, might I suggest Team King, with a 2 minute win condition as opposed to the normal 1. Foundation or Beaver Creek are good maps for this.

Also Territories is a tricky gametype to make a decent game of. 3 plots works well with 4v4 matches on Ascension and Lockout, but I'm not sure how well 3 plots works with 16 players. I can't say I've played a quality game of Land Grab either, its always one sided. Maybe with a longer victory time Territories would work for this sort of match.

Maybe work in some Single Flag CTF as a tie breaker or something... if the Assault game ties for instance.

Team King is the most skillless, retarded spamfest known to mankind. Oddball rocks.

Bullshit. Team oddball is the most skilless luckfest of a game which relies on one person hiding in a corner occasionally popping people on the head with a ball while everyone else has a two minute team slayer game going on. Only if your whole team rushes to the center is King a spamfest. You should have the majority of your team out preventing the hill from being contested so you can actually put time on the clock.

Sounds like someone doesn't know how to play. :lol :lol
 
How can anyone "hide" in a Team Oddball game when there's always a marker showing the others where the ball is?
 
By hide, I mean take the ball to an defensible position and hide behind your team, rather then running around trying to evade people with your super quick half-speed ball carrying. Which is how it should be. Don't get me wrong, I like Oddball... I was just overreacting to the King comment.

No radar on all game types
Team Slayer to 100: Ivory Tower
Team Oddball to 5 minutes: Lockout (ascension has game killing banshee bridge glitch)
Territories: Midship to 5 minutes
Assault: One Flag, no touch respawn on Zanzibar, first to three caps
Capture the Flag: Coagulation Classic CTF, Warthogs Only (a la tournament Halo)

Game order should go:
team oddball
assault
territories
team slayer
capture the flag

Edit: PS: NO Leguna-style vehicle driving w/flag
 
So, has your Magnificant Eight come with a decision, or are all of you going to continue to sissy fight one another?
 
I think my teammate has said it best when he posted the following:

Capture the flag on Coagulation is a must.
Assualt on Zanzibar is cool.
Terrortories on Ascession.
Team Slayer on Foundation.
Team Oddball on Lockout.

We leave radar on all of them, we leave on all the default weapons. Nothing enhanced, nothing added.

Team Slayer on foundation is too easy to camp control and time the rocket respawns. You can put everyone in a room and hold it with rockets and then watch the timer and go get the Rockets when they respawn... you GAFers and OAers do time, right? :D
 
UlysisAM said:
Okay, Ivory Tower it is.

And Ramirez, tough shit. That was the time agreed upon.
Click to expand...

Who agreed on the time?

The GAF Se7en always wanted a time before 8; i think. (including me)
 
I still have not heard from your team as to whether these types of matches and maps are sufficient. All I have seen is GA members at each others' throats. I hope you all are a team come tomorrow.

at each other's throats? lol....o-k.

imo.

take out the terroritories and asscension.

instead have 2 team slayer games. 1 on whatever map u picked for it already and one on beaver creek.

take out the oddball match completely.

what would be better is

assault.
1 flag ctf, classic ctf
2 team slayers.

peace
 
OT:

thats lame.

better to test the wide range of skills of both sides.

1 of each, no multiples of any mode unless equal

you want 2 team slayers then do 2 of everything

Not at all. It's hosted on Mina's server and there is no spyware, popups, viruses, banners, etc. of any kind.
 
That's four games. That means should both teams take two out of the four, we are left at a standstill. Also, having two team slayer games doesn't even the games out. Anyone else with an opinion who would like to share?

who cares about oddball and territories?

I didnt think many people really cared for those boring modes.

but whatever

The reason why I went with the five game format was the chance to give both teams an oppotunity to pull a BoSox should one team go up two games to none. Secondly, I figured we play all aspects of Halo 2 MP, giving something unique and fresh to play each time through. If you all want to go through the long process of a nine game match, then we should at least set time limits, as some people have lives and jobs to get to.

and this thing about "people have lives and jobs" to get to yet you pick 5 matches....

lol....thought it was gonna be 3? and the first 3 in the other thread were perfectly fine. now yall extended it? yet...."people have lives and jobs"

now that I think about it, it would be better to just stick with what was said in the previous thread with the 3 matches and no best out of 3.... and if you INSIST on best out of 3...well, timers wont really be needed cause the only long games would be classic ctf.

peace
 
No one is taking it seriously. All I am trying to present is a plan that everyone can agree on. I apologize if your anus is too puckered to help you realize that I'm trying to just get things in an orderly fashion here. Besides, I speak for my team but do you speak for the rest of yours?

No?

So let's get the rest of the team in on this as Fixed2BeBroken's single opinion doesn't matter in the greater scheme of things.

naw, im not speaking for "my team" im not even sure if im gonna be playing but i can still speak my mind. this is a forum, i believe.

and honestly, to tell you the truth, the reason no one is really speaking for gaf, is cause i dont think the "team members" really care that much about the match.
