I. GENERAL INFORMATION
Who: You, the honorable members of the Maw!
What: Humpday Server Gathering
When: This Wednesday and Friday at 6:00 PM Eastern Standard Time
Where: Clan «TUI» The Underground Insurgency (HALO CE IP - 8.6.76.63:2302)
Why: To have fun! Chat up a storm and kill your friends at the same time! Bodybags are not provided, please bring your own.
Note under where I mentioned HALO CE. Not HALO. To attend the gatherings, you will need Halo Custom Edition. HCE is a standalone game that requires a version of Halo PC to run. It allows for a better netcode and the introduction of custom-made maps. For more information, please read the sticky put together by Chewy here.
You will need to download these files before joining the server if you have not already done so ;)

Now a little history. What is a humpday? A Humpday Gathering is the «TUI» Equivalent to the popular MAW~ Gatherings hosted by Iggwilv. They both function the same way. Except our gatherings occur on Wednesdays and Fridays. The term "Humpday" was coined from an inside clan joke, where I would often hump KllrGrl's corpse. She got tired of it so she set days where I could hump her corpse. However, people started coming on the server, and as our gatherings became more popular, we decided to do them weekly. Of course, there will be no corpse humping whatsoever ;)
II. MAPS
Since our server is running on Halo Custom Edition, quite a few of our games use custom player-made maps. Everybody who connects to our server during a custom game MUST have the appropriate map the server is running. We usually have to deal with alot of people getting disconnected during a map change because they do not have the right map. To solve this problem, node357 has kindly put together a map-pack containing ALL of our maps in one zip file! =D
DOWNLOAD THE «TUI» SERVER MAP PACK - (260 MEGABYTES)
(I know I posted this above, but it's important so I posted it again.)
Now let me re-iterate. You need ALL the maps to attend. If you miss one, you might crash out of the server, and that's not good. So PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE MAPS ;-)
In quite a few cases, you may already have some of the maps our server uses. So node also compiled a list with links to downloading specific maps seperately. Here they are.
CMT Icy Swamps
CMT Fragment
CMT Coagulation CE
Delta Ruins
H2 Zanzibar Updated
Paint Forest V1
Yoyorast Island
Launch Bay X
No Remorse
New Mombasa Classic
Siege
All maps must be extracted to the following directory.
-----C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Custom Edition\maps------
III.RULES
We are quite a bunch friendly people, patient and caring. However we still have rules to be obeyed. Don't worry they're pretty simple.
* No Excessive Swearing - This is quite simple. Swear, but don't overdo it, and especially if it starts being directed at somebody.
* No TeamKilling (TK) - You would have to really have the intention of ruining the game to break this one. Friendly Fire is when you shoot at your teammates. FF damage is disabled on our server, but there are workarounds. Please don't do it.
* Base Camping - This is allowed strategically, but if this gets persistent and begins to annoy the other team, we expect it to stop.
Failure to abide by these rules may result in a few warnings. Then we may have to kick you off for a server time out. Make you wear a dunce cap and sit in the corner...
And if it gets worse, and we see no improvement we may have to pull the banhammer for a while. That is no fun. We don't like to ban people.
