OK, yesterdays Gathering was great a lot of people showed up and it was fun. So let's do it again tomorrow Thurs @ 8pm EST. The server will be called Bungie.net Maw Server and the IP address is in my sig. I'm still letting my hand rest so I'm going to be scarce but will keep an eye on X-fire so if you need me to kick a jerk just X-fire me and I'll come in and show him the door. I'll try to think up a map rotation but go ahead and offer up suggestions. Come out and have a good time.

Here is some footage from last night's action. It is 30sec at the end of the Danger Canyon assault match that ran from 10 - 11pm. It was a great match. In this clip, red setup up a nicely coordinated three hog blitz which blue just managed to defend against. All I did was convert the 200MB uncompressed avi file to a 1.5Mb wmv file and put it on the web. I'll see how it looks and then fiddle with recording settings and stuff like that to make the next one better. Let me know what you think. Oh yeah I did NOT record with sound.

Not bad it could be bigger so that the text could be read but other wise it's OK for a first take.

How about Blood Gulch. I've never seen that map in your rotation before. I'd like to see how it would go with all of us.

I think you need to move more when you're getting shot at by three different 'Hogs. ;-)

I know, I know, the wrist. Trust me, if anyone understands physical pain, it's me.

Sure the two aimbotters would want sniper slayer :)

OK, I suggest everyone else sit back and watch these two go at it on this map.

I just hate looking across the way and seeing 8 guys to shoot at, but not being able to shoot them because I spawned with an AR and shotgun.

"Hang on guys! I'll be over there in just a minute!"

EDIT: I will be bringing at least one other WRX'er with me tonight. PhideasWRX is a pretty good player, so watch out when we're together.

Damn, I just got autobanned. Some idiot jumped in front of my hog, I think on purpose. Oh well. Any chance I can get off so I can play real quick? Please?

Just saw that video, it was great! That was me, Amadeus, with the flag. Too bad that damn hog rolled over all of us, or it would have been a smooth getaway.

Obviously you had more than one "accidental" tk.

Or did you just not jump out of the hog in time?

I really don't appreciate your insinuations. And this question was directed at Iggwilv, not you.

Insinuations? It takes 3 tk's to get banned. And your siggy doesn't help your case much.

BTW.......I participate in paying for this server, and have rcon, so take it easy.

Excellent games last night. Usually I play a different game after an hour or so, but things were going so well I stuck with Halo until I had to hit the hay.

There were only a few fidgets there and they were dealt with.

I even played some modes that I never had played before. CTF and a bit of slayer was all I ever played before last night. Oddball and that other one like it without the skull that I can't remember the name of... were really fun. Most people played them like they were playing slayer though.

Then there was race, and man that was a total blast as the warthog is my favorite video game vehicle evar! Imagine my suprise playing a mode where driving was the key. I will have to play some more of that as I love to drive that hog... my baby... my precious. Props to my gunner who's name escapes me.

All in all it was a most enjoyable evening. Thanks again to Iggwilv for hosting.

Excellent gathering last night. It took me 10 mins of constant refreshing to get onto the server. I've got four screenshots on my home pc that I might post tonight. Of course their of games that I won, but were some tough wins.
I got on as the WRX boy's were just finishing up for the night, probably why I actually came in first.

Came real close to banning several people last night. Mainly from racial comments and constant flaming, but after a few warnings, they shut up. Some dude with the infamous name of me king hung out for a while, but didn't seem to cause any problems.

Thank's for coming out guy's, and see ya next time.

Edit: I nominate Iggwilv for "Legendary Status." Man, he's like the current Don of the Maw. :) He has taken the time to set up multiple gathering's, a tournament, and to just have a positive influence on this forum and on the battlefield. We could all learn something from him. I was ready to ban someone for copying me king's name, but he was willing to give whoever it was a chance to play as long as he didn't cause any trouble. That's a good example of patience and maturity.

I have no idea how Tuesday's game was, but I know that to my opinion these was the best games ever!

First, BG Assault. I came in just as the game was starting, with McKeegan and a few others. I think that was the longest and definitively the most fun CTF I ever played! Specially when PhideasWRX and later most of the rest of the Maw showed up (mainly in my team). We had a few fun attempts at captures before the people showed up, of course, but after the team was set up... It was a mass of Hogs and people assaulting the bases. I think I got more kills/assists there than ever! And of course, I got the winning capture for blue =)

Next game was Race on Infinity, I think, where I started slaying all the opposition at first (18 kills, 2nd highest to McKeegan!), and then just got on a Hog with Shizzle (main scorer for both games) who drove like heaven around for a couple times before I got rocketed. Sadly, we lost that one.

Next was Oddball, Chaos definitively, but after the 5 min of the game I had 9 score and was 4th (Usually aim for 6th or so in Maw Gatherings, so it was a surprise!)
And that was all just from 9:00 to 9:45!

Blue. Or whatever team I was on... All I know is my team won and I got the last capture!
