Are you suggesting you have friends?

What are these "friends" I keep hearing about? :)


Well, the 360 actively prevents you from sending a friend request to one's self, so that excuse is out. I have a couple multi-XBL accounts on my list...

Is it bad if the members of the rest of your friends list are dependent on you for food/money/shelter/etc?

So long as they aren't restrained in some fashion so as to be unable to leave, I don't see a problem with it...

how do you sign up to play


You keep a lookout for the mods vs mems thread and say you want to play.

By the way, team 2 beat the mods...

Planning and luck, lots of luck (at least on my part).

It was really just muffinman1 setting up some matches between two teams of members and a moderator team. I dunno all the details since I was a last minute replacement in the game, though I'm glad I got in :D.

Just so you know, you replaced SS Optaquon, who I was about to replace with SS Zero Divide, but they invited you instead.

First I was bummed out, but then I realized El Roboto was pretty hilarious. Still, you should look into that crouch-walking thing.

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

If we play again we have to just have some fun with muffinman's map. Who cares about the gametype on it. I swear I was having a blast just standing there watching all the crap blowing up and flying around. I think my 360 about melted though.

Yes, I actually want to download that map.

I'm going to download it the next chance I get. Was fun riding in the side of the warthog as it ran through the explosives area and I jumped out and it flung me into the base 0.o

Yeh, mainly me scurrying about in the sword room on the pit while the sniper and turret guy were both looking at the exit I was wanting to take:P
Also about me crouch walking a bunch, its a bad habit I picked up from all the times during halo 2, playing 1v1 on lockout :P

It's on My file share slots 5 and 6. The game really only works with the game-type I made because the health and weapons are tweaked for balance. People say that the health is screwed up but it's balanced evenly, it just rtakes a little getting used to the fact that your foes don't die as quick.

Here is the set-up of the gametype:

VIP team traits:
500% damage resistance.

VIP traits:
1000% damage resistance
Shield recharge 50%
Primary weapon - Batle Rifle
Vehicle use - full
Waypoint - visible to all

General settings:
Rounds - 4
Score to win - 1

Base player traits:
Damage resistance - 200%
Damage modifier - 200%

Anything I didn't mention is because it is either unchanged or not important.

Can you guys rate My Map and My Varient because I would love for more people to see it and play it. Maps and varients get so quickly swept down that no one really gets to see the potential that some good maps have.

Oh and thanks to Achillies I've decided to create a bunch of new gametypes for my map.

Maybe sometime later on we can all get togeather again for some custom game fun perhaps?

We could use some of Muffinman1's map variants, along with other fun ones. Perhaps we should vote on it?

Not tonight, that is a planning nightmare, but I do have something up my sleeve for the next get-together.

No, I didn't mean tonight that would be too soon :P Whatever you have "up your sleeve" for nextime should be good.
Maybe each person should submit one gametype and everyone votes on what to play whenever the next get togeather is?

You could, but trying to stick with the "First come, first serve" mantra of what Muffin appears to try to do, you'd have to take submissions after sign up.

Sounds good, though I dunno if I should be the person to plan all of this out.
I'll mess something up or get too lazy and forget something :P

I could, but we might as well just let Muffin do it, if he wants to. His program, I guess.

Might as well let Muffin do it again, he did a good job setting up the mod vs mems.
Speeking of Mods, shouldn't we wait for their input on it before we force them into this?

The human inside of me says yes, as it's the right thing to do. Of course, where there is a good side, there's a bad; that side says something about their moms in bed last night.

That is why each game is so far apart, it gives the mods a very clear indication of when we need them. They aren't forced, I ask them personally way before the event. Whoever says yes is put on the mods team. Ghandi and sir fragula are also considered mods (although not technically) because they both stand out from the community.

Also I don't believe in letting those who get in be the ones who submit custom games. I'll never forget what happened after we gave Zag host, everyone left lol. Instead I will pick from the list of maps in the community spotlight area.

The mods vs mems games won't be first come first served anymore. Stay tuned for a neat(ish) surprise.

That's not what happened at all. ;) Lots of people had to go. Just because you guys got lazy as the Zombies doesn't mean that map is impossible. You're the first group I've played with that didn't like it. And I've played Zomzibar a lot. :D

We could probably just get as many fun gametypes/map variants as possible and vote on those then. Yeh, the example with Zag is a good one, though I do feel a bit sorry for him how he got killed at the end. Main problem was it was almost impossible to get into the base as a zombie unless they did something stupid :P

0.o Either this is something really good and big, or at least will make a big change.
