Halo 2 PC?

I doubt many people here actually own Halo 2 Vista. I know I don't.

Okay, as Halo 2 is down I propose we spend the next hour with Mythical Wolf's mother and send him hateful messages until he cries.

Halo 3 is also an alternative if everyone agrees.

I have returned from the Untamed Lands. MOAP is dead.

I'm glad we're not on the same team. When XBC returns online I am going to hunt you down.

I was thinking it might just be worth recreating a new sign-up thread in a few days time, but I do not mind playing Halo 3 if people are eager to play something.

Edit: EL doesn't seem overly keen.

Halo 3 would be quite a pain to set-up now.

We would need to collect online handles and it is probably too late to use the Carnage event gamertag, which will make for a particularly painful invitation process. Some might also oppose it (EL) which would reduce numbers. It is doable and many carnages have been saved with last minute efforts, but far from ideal.

I am however in the mood for a few games tonight and will gladly grit my teeth and go for it. I'll give the gametypes a quick think and peruse through gamertags of those that have signed up; if you are interested in playing (including those that did not initially sign-up) also feel free to post.

This does not mean a Halo 2 event will not also take place soon; info forthcoming.

So we can assume the sever won't be back up in time?

I'm up for some Halo 3, although I might be slightly late.

I think I will still try using Carnage event; I'll juggle browsers. Those that have/do sign up, expect a FR.

Edit: Added those I could. Unfortunately Avatar Korra and Apocalypse I did not know your gamertag, as you have it hidden.

Does anyone have lotion?
*Raises hand*
Is mayonnaise a lotion?

Why do we need an XBC account...?

Did you read the OP, or even the title? "Plan B" should have given away that we weren't originally planning to play Halo 3.

Yea, not really fond of H3. I'll sit this one out. However, when the XBC servers do return, I will be there for H2. Happy fragging.

Yeah, I'd rather not do H3.

You know where to find me Tom. That mean its rescheduled for next week or something?


Edit: If you're playing H3, you should include a game on Standoff. Either replace High Ground, Construct or Narrows with it.

Also, Guardian Ball > Hill and Constructs pretty nice for Hill.

Assault, Slayer or Flag works on Standoff. I see you're trying to have a variety.

"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."

Games are as follows:

Game 1: One Bomb on High Ground
Game 2: Team Slayer BRs on Construct
Game 3: Capture the Flag on Valhalla
Game 4: Team Slayer BRs on Narrows
Game 5: King of the Hill on Guardian

People are dropping out, so anyone feel free to sign up. I'll be checking this thread, but it might be worth sending me a message (Tom T 117) once we hit 3pm pdt.

For a plan B that went quite well. I hope we can play some Halo 2 some time soon though.
