Yeah, we did awesome. That last minute-tie of theirs at the end of the final game still pisses me off though.. Oh well, I don't feel that bad because the people I played with today helped the clan get at least 6 more wins.

First tragedy, then farce.

Clan is effectively full until Sunday or Monday when I am canceling any outstanding clan invites and am going to start inviting people based on when they put their name in this thread. In the meantime, add some people from the list on the first page to your friend's list, especially people who have been posting a lot in this thread, as they will most likely be on and playing with other people.

Clan page for leaderboard standings and members and such is on the first page of this thread. You can also do a stats search on bungie.net for Gaming Age.

As far as I know people are still playing, though I might have broken up the game when I left as I was the leader and I know people leave during the reconnect sequence for some reason.

Sorry I couldn't join you guys...I was just getting to a checkpoint in the campaign before stopping for the night.

Am I the only one who's been playing mainly in the training grounds section? I want to learn more of the specifics of each match and mode before moving on to tracked contests entirely.

I'm already in a clan, but if any GAF regulars want to add me to their friends list that'd be great! The nick is McGuinea. I already have a bunch of you on my friends list, but I'm still missing a number of you.

I want in on the GAF clan - I am tired of playing with random stupid people in 3 min games then waiting to play again.

how do I make this happen?

Well, if there's any room left after that, add me (r0rschach). :(

I posted earlier in this thread, but I thought it was definitely full.

Hey OpIvy, good game of Juggernaut don't you think ?? With the olympic sprinter and all :)
Click to expand...

god, it sucked!

i early on figured that it didnt take all that much effort to bring him down if you had an overcharged plasma pistol and smg, the problem is, i'd hit him with the plasma and take out his shields, and because we had soooo many people on a small map, someone elses bullet (of the hundreds being shot) would inevitably kill him...

i did do something fucking crazy though... i was chasing someone up one of the ramps as the juggernaut with the sword. i locked on and did the lunge attack, and i guess due to the juggernaut's crazy spped, and the even faster dash, when i missed the guy i launched off the ramp and 100's of feet into the air clear passed the map and fell to my death :lol

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.
yes, especially when the game has such similar team colors... I'm starting to think I'm color blind.

If you can get everyone to agree on both an icon and colors then congratulations, but I think it will be an exercise in futility. We can't even agree on 4 teams of 4. Anyway, in non-team games, which are played occasionally, we would all be the same color, which loses some of the technicolor fun of FFA games.

*is not down with everyone in the clan having the same appearance*

Edit: Team King of the Hill on Foundation rocks very very much. The hill is actually defensible due to having cover, but at the same time the turrets can be used very effectively against anyone not prepared for them. 16 players IS a little much but it was still fun.

So whose gonna be up for some clan matches today?

I'll be online most of the late afternoon eastern time...

We should use the Tri Force icon, it'd be the ultimate sign of solidarity for the GAF community.

Plus it's probably easiest to see recognize from far away.

just played my first rumble pit game ( http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStats.aspx?panel=medals&gameid=2347510&player=EtherealSpirit ) Lost cause of one damn suicide :-/ Do you only go up levels when you actually win?
Click to expand...

You need to go read the stats thing on bungie. It's the length of a book..... but from memory, yes I think you do need to win... I'm not sure about rumble pit, but team games your team must win or you lose points. It's forgiving on lower levels < 7 I think.

Im 11 from 13 on head to head. I love that mode.

EDIT: I will not conform to a triforce logo sorry. I'm all for clan solidarity but I'm not going to use an over-rated triforce logo. I love my gold swirl far to much.

Another rant, some of the elites on blue team seem to have large red patches on them. fucked me right up a bunch of times.

I don't think you have to win actually. You gain points from people you beat and lose points to people who beat you. Your net gain or loss depends on however the ranking system is set up which I haven't put a lot of time into figuring out.

I'll start playing online after Saturday.

I'm almost done the campaign and then it's safe to be online.

Tonight it's 16 player LAN. Good times.

Opivy is THE force. lol. I may win half the time, but that's just because I don't see him playing. We'll end the match and I'll be like 25-15 and he'll be 22-3 :lol

AHHH i get it, to clarify for anyone who isnt sure

No you dont need to win, it calculates your experience Vs. All other players, so coming second means you make experience off of all the other players in the game minus some experience for losing to the winner, what you get/give from/to each player is determined by the difference between your levels, I think you can guess the rest, (for winning) if they are much lower you get much less, if they are much higher you get much more and (for losing) if they are higher you lose less and if you are higher you lose more.


And you cant lose experience untill you learn level 1, though even then you only lose 5% of what you should lose, 10% at level 2, 20% at level 3 and so on (its 5 or 10 every level) until level 15 and above when you will lose 100% of what you are supposed to.

So no pissing around after level 15 :D



btw good CTF game, sorry i didnt notice the blues had loads of drop outs, i should have switched teams when i joined.

THat was a long ass game of CTF, and even when it was 5 v 9 we were still holding you guys out. 61 kills, 11 flag saves, and 64 medals for myself. I loved it. 40% accuracy which is a high for me, and pretty good considering I took 3000 shots. Most of it was with a shotgun though, which aint hard to miss with :p

Dude you're a good challenge, I love battling you 1 on 1.

Yeah, we're evenly matched so it makes a great game. And we kept running into each other the whole time! It was like our only kills were each other! We'll have to be sure to play against each other more.
