Subject: Bungie Community Gamenight *WEEK 1*

Basically, I make the best topics ever.

Feedback!
Duardo: This thread is locked for being stupid.
cortana 5 : It's perpetually my time of the month and I'm just grouchy.
Foman: I see absolutely no reason, either theoretical or practical, that this is not a superb idea. Excellent work, my friend.

The basic goal of this topic is to organize weekly gamenights in which the entire community can participate. Every week a link to an external voting site will be provided. The site will contain a poll with various dates for the potential gamenight. On the next Wednesday the poll will be closed and votes tallied. The date with the most votes will be the date for that week's gamenight. A 'leader' will be chosen at random each week to host depending on who can make it. I'm also willing to set up a poll to select the leader if people would like.

SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME! If you have any ideas/suggestions that could make this idea work better, please post them below. This is just a trial run and I'm still trying to get things figured out, so I need all the help I can get! I think that the current times work well, but if you can't find a date/time that works, make suggestions here.

Please vote for all dates and times you are available:
WEEK 1 (12/15 - 12/18) [Closes 12/14]

Results:
WEEK 1 (12/15 - 12/18)

Note: All times are in Pacific Standard Time (Bungie Time), so keep that in mind when voting. If you need help converting times, this site does it beautifully.

The gamertag that you should add in order to join the gamenight will be added upon poll closure.


BACKGROUND
There has always been an issue with creating gamenights within the Bungie Community. We were told to use the Classifieds, and while that can work great, limited traffic and poor visibility of posts often hinders otherwise successful gamenights. Groups were also suggested, but you have to be a member of the group to participate and most members aren't part of any specific 'gamenight group.' Dee J's recent 'Ride Alongs' made many of us realize the potential that community wide gamenights had, but we still had no mechanism to organize these events on our own.

So we were left with a quandary: how can we create regular gamenights that are available to every member of B.net? This topic attempts to fix this issue, albeit poorly. I am confident a better method of organizing gamenights will be introduced soon, but until then, I'd like to see how this would work.

I do not believe that this is against the rules, but if any mods/admin feel that it is, feel free to lock/move. I did not post this in the Classifieds because I'm not really advertising anything, just providing a means for the community to organize and play games together. This is a community oriented event, and I feel that this forum will best facilitate this event. My assumption is that if this is a bad idea or if it doesn't end up working out, it will die quickly and that will be that.

OP: I think you have the right idea with starting this thread. I was apart of a pretty sucsessful group (The Guardianz, which has now turned into Reachingperfection.com) that used a simmilar setup to this thread. The OP would keep track of games and any member could post on that thread saying they wanted to start up a lobby.

Since the place was pretty active you always got 4-8 guys on to go into MM or customs. With the relitive popularity of this forum I feel it will be very easy to get groups together.

Maybe set up a silver xbox membership "Community Customs" which people could add to thier friends list?

Agreed. I can start up a lobby if this picks up.
