When they have these large xbox tournaments, what kind of server do they play on? Is it just a bunch of xboxs system linked together or is it something more?

ok - thanks. Since it is such a large event, I was wondering if it was something more, but apparently not. So for scoring, how do they keep track of all the scores and points since the score screen goes by pretty quickly...

If they have all the xboxes linked together they have to have something more to handle the lag... but if they just had like groups of 2 boxes then they wouldn't need anythign special.

zoggy the max boxes you can have on halo is 4 and a cheap router will handle that without any lag.
