I'm going to start back up the bi-weekly Halo PC MAW Gatherings. Starting tomorrow at 3pm EST(GMT -5) the MAW clan server (IP:8.2.0.184)will be hosting a map rotation starting with Blood Gulch CTF, Hang 'em High Classic Slayer Pro and Danger Canyon Assault. The rest of the map rotation depends entirely on your suggestions. Here are some limitations I will enforce to keep the Gathering from sputtering.

No Infinity -- just too damn big
No Chiron TL-34 - people just don't appreciate the beauty of this map
No race - never any love for this gametype.
No more then one tank or shee per side
No more then two minutes to win on oddball, reverse tag, KOTH games.
No infinate nades.
No heavy-only gametypes
No limited lives.

If no one makes any suggestions then we will be playing those three maps.

Hopefully I will have my cable run finished and will be able to attend but it all depends on when my friend brings his ladder to my house. If I am there I will be recording the action with FRAPS and will put together a quick montage of me killing or being killed by people I have seen in these forums. Here is the last one I made http://files.filefront.com/may15thwmv/;7537691;;/fileinfo.htm l


Server rules are as follows:

1. Intentional Teamkilling will not be tolerated. There is an auto-ban in place on the server to protect from serial TKers. Killing your teammates for the flag, a weapon, vehicle, or just to be an ass, will get you a permanent ban from the server

2. Excessive profanity is not allowed. Every once in a while is OK but constant or repetitive profanity will get you warnings, kicks and then banned.

3. -blam!-ly explicit, racial, political or religious player names need to be changed. You will be asked to change it if you refuse you will be kicked/banned.

4. Please keep flag, spawn and port camping to a minimum if you are not playing in a match or scrim. Pub servers are for fun not for pounding people with match tactics.


5. The highest ranking MAW clan officer in the server is responsible for keeping order. That person will kick AFK's and ban players if it is needed. You can help that person out by pointing out AFK's and Tkers, but don't become a server cop.

6. Have fun!

To recap,

Saturday 21st at 3pm EST(GMT-5)
MAW clan server @ IP 8.2.0.184
Mapcycle:

Death Island - Classic CTF
Hang em High - Classic Team Slayer
Timberland - CTF
Sindwinder CTF
Longest - No-shield Shotgun Slayer to 25

Nice, thorough explanation. Hopefully I can make it to it.

Thanks for starting it up again.

  • 07.20.2007 7:58 PM PDT

Maybe I'll make my timely return to HPC at this thing... That is if it picks up...

Yeah, and I'm the only one that ever shows any love for race...

It'll pick up. I'll be there so maybe some good players I know will pop in and -blam!- all of us.

  • 07.20.2007 8:14 PM PDT

Well yeah, if it picks up I'll join, if it doesn't, or if I've locked myself in my room with The Deathly Hollows I won't...

Oh, don't look so innocent New ;)
I suggest CTF on Death island. Classic weapons set. Theres too many rocket launchers if you set it to human weapons only.

Yeah, Death Island is a pretty good map despite its size. Its good to see the MAW back 'cause I get sick of going on these heavy weps servers at times. Fortunately all you people who've whooped me a year ago in MAW may find a challenge ^_^

I was going to suggest Classic Accumulate, but I guess that's too long (5 minutes). But the kills help speed up your timer, so it may not be as long as you think it would be.

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Well, you took out all my favs, so no comment.

Have fun.

Again, it's practically the same stuff. Too much CTF, and BG is in there, as always. BG gets really old, imo.

I suggest one heavy weapons gametype:

Reverse tag (Oddball variant), on Prisoner. The default starting weapon is the fuel rod gun, and where the wielder has damage resistance. It's really fun.

Anyone else plan on playing anymore tonight? I was there for about an hour, then everyone left.

Oh, and Derelict Classic Slayer Pro to 50 is pretty awesome.

I should visit this topic more.


I suggest a CTF on Hang Em High - the main pathway puts a hell of a target on your head. Oh so fun.
