Nooo!

Something came up. I won't be able to make it right at 3. If there are any spots open at about 20 minutes after the start, I'll be there.

Reach will be more fun.

Yeah it will. The only bad thing about the H3 lobby was the connection...

And people not coming to the event and people quitting...

True but I can't say anything because I left too... Got annoyed of the party decreasing.

Well, the Halo 3 event was a fail. Terrible lag, plenty of dithering, unbalanced teams, absent hosts and someone thought it was a good idea to play BTB on The Pit.

I thought the point of custom games was to have more fun than one would have in matchmaking?

Actually, the game on the pit was the most fun one...

Then it must have got worse after I left. In that game you could barely move without being shot. No surprise, really: the map isn't designed to accommodate more than 8 people. 10 is a push. 13 is a joke.

Que Pasta...?
:D

Ok, really sorry about this. I'm going to have to pull out :( Going to be busy tomorrow, so no Bungie Day festivities for me :(

I can't explain the lag. It seemed to affect me worse than most people, but every other match I have played today has been fine.

Unbalanced teams is not a valid complaint. The teams are pretty much random, we didn't go through people's service records to decide.

I'm pretty sure I have already explained why I went AWOL, but I will explain again. Part way through the first game I got a "signed out" notification, then it wouldn't let me sign back in for about 10 minutes, even though I still had Internet connection. When I did get back on, the event seemed to have been abandoned.

Overall, yes the event failed, but a lot of the problems seemed to be outside of the control of Sam and myself.

Canada isn't that important that it needs two of the same threads on page one.

If this is still going on for Reach and you have a spot open, tell me because I'm on another account right now.

Sure it is. Balancing could have easily been achieved in the lobby, where everyone's universal ranks are displayed. Both I and someone else brought it up, too.

just because we ran the alpha bravo delta maneuver in one bomb does NOT mean we were taking it seriously.
