Now, now, now... I know what you're thinking. "What's this? A community night? How is this gonna work?" That's what I'm asking you guys.

What do you want in a Community Night? Tournaments with assigned teams and coverage on the forums? Random custom games with a theme? I'm just curious what you guys would think of this. I have a few ideas but need some other input to help expand upon my other ideas.

Also, what about times? In my mind I was thinking either bi-weekly or Monthly, depending on how truly organized we make it.

Thanks Community :)

~With love, Sundalius.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

/ Community Carnage

There is a group called For Carnage Apply Within and we play Bungie's OLD games like Marathon, Myth 1 and 2, etc.

It is a lot of fun but most people here just play Halo.

I play for fun and armory completion. :)

This is pretty much what you're talking about, although not on as regular a basis.

I'm with Spartain on this. We kind of sort of already have that with the Community Carnages. The only reason we haven't gone so grand with them is because activity is so low, and not many people seem interested in things like that. If more people are interested, then head over to the Carnage group, and tell us what you want. We'd be more then happy to set things up.

Random games are always fun and I've seen them a few times. A tournament is an interesting idea too that I would definitely participate in.

Well, I sort of was thinking about the Community Carnage when I suggested this but those come around so... Little. I mean, this one is the most recent since when? I'm thinking of a more regular, maybe less structured CC.

Anyways, I'm not jumping the gun and trying to organize one already, I'm just trying to get some input and feedback on my idea.

And also, I can only imagine how insane FCAW's Gnop games get.

You have no idea.

I wasn't saying you where jumping the gun. Merely suggesting that you use your resources at hand (Community Carnage) to help see your idea go through. We love taking feedback from the community, and as you said, we haven't really done anything in a while. But, if someone wanted to help us get something more regular going, or something else along those lines, who are we to object?

After all, it's Community Carnage.

LOL, we don't really play Gnop, it is against a computer sadly not against other people. :'(

We Mostly play Myth 2 and Marathon Infinity or Durndal on xbox live.

But maybe we can work something with Deej and get some kind of Bungie tournament going, possibly on Steam Pirates and maybe some Halo action.

I would <3 a major tournament on Myth but most people here just stick with halo (which is fine with me).

Well I can't exactly say I have the MOST diverse Bungie collection, seeing as my only Bungie games are Halo 3, ODST, and Reach... Would love to try Myth but lack anywhere to get a copy, and doubt my comp could handle them. Will have to check out Marathon eventually.

And I know Gnop is against a comp, thus why it's funny :p

Eh, I joined up in the Community Carnage group, I'll look around and see if there's anything I can do.

Maybe... A cross Halo tournament? Hmmm...

You're trying to make it too formal. If you really want to play with the "community", make some friends around the forum, add 'em on Steam/Live/PSN/whatever and play with them. Join some groups, get involved. It's not hard to find people on Bungienet to play games with, after all, were all here 'cause of video games.

These formal nights don't work out more than half the time, the random gamenights/XBL parties are a lot more fun and less stressful, especially for the organizer.

And the novelty of these kind of things fades quickly, attendance is great the first week or two, but after that, it's a struggle.

Unless you're currently browsing this site on a PC made before '98, you should be alright. I'll send you a pm.

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

I never thought I'd see the day when somebody agreed with the guy.

OT: Could be a good idea, although I'm certain that events such as the one you are suggesting come to fruition through other fractions of Bungie.net.

As a side thought, it would have been nice if Bungie (when they were in control of Halo) created a playlist which only members of B.net with over 10 posts and 6 months membership could play in, and have it only appear on a Sunday every fortnight or something similar.
