Who: You and anybody else who reads this
What: Teusday Maw Gathering
When: Sep 19th @ 7:00pm EST until whenever
Where: Bungie.net Maw server @ IP 8.2.0.184 password: cortana
Why: Because it so much more fun to kill people you know and laugh about it afterwards then to kill random noobs on public servers.

Maw Gatherings are when the members of these forums get together to wage mortal combat on the Maw server. Then we usually fill up this thread with our exploits and smacktalking. I usually record my pwnage with Fraps and post a montage the next day but lately my wireless has been making playing Halo difficult so I my not be there.

There is a Teamspeak server available for those that have microphones. The address is ts20.gameservers.com:8824. I really encourage this, several of the members here get on it and it enhances the enjoyment. If you have voice-activation set it towards shout so we don't hear every breath you take.

Rules in brief:
No Intentional Teamkilling
Keep foul language, flaming and random off-topic chatting to a minimum
Keep flag, spawn and port camping to a minimum
Keep the vehicles out of the tunnels and bases
Have fun.

Map/gametype rotation is set and I will not have a chance to change it. Have fun!

Ok, I have two questions here.. I'm going to randomly pop into one of these sometime.

- Halo PC or Halo Custom Edition?
- Is it a dedicated server or do you just have it up during said gatherings?

I have to greatly agree demi, it was very fun *though a bit laggy sometimes*. I hope some of that footage has me in it ^^. Some of those games I played in were intence and were won by mere seconds/points. Especially that one Crazy King on Deralict *i think thats the map 0.o*. I won by not even 1 second. That was how close it was.

It was good. The kill-your-target slayer on infinity with no vehicles was a bit much. Trot all the way across infinity only to have someone else kill your target. Then start chasing again.

Kill-your-target works best on smaller maps. BG would have worked as you can snipe from end to end.

also I din't like the banshees on death island *Like usual*, but then again I wasn't getting run over by them every few seconds *i was blowing crap up with my rl*.

Tripple rocket oddball was as fun as usual. I agree that Sniper targes on Infinity is too big *I won it though, after a half-hour or so* Probably would be better on HeH or BG, as long as the map isn't too big.

Perhaps on one of the next gatherings we can have A CTF on Infinity, without shees. That would be interestign change. Also take off the banshees from death Island, that way it forces more ground combat and less splatterings from above.
