Who: You and anybody else who reads this
What: Saturday Maw Gathering
When: Feb 3rd@ 3:00pm EST(GMT -5)
Where: Bungie.net Maw server @ IP 8.2.0.184
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 try record my pwnage with Fraps and post a montage the next day.

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. The language rule kind of went out the window with Teamspeak but I would like that to be more enforced there. Yes me too. I’ve been doing my best to censor myself. Try and be civil as possible everyone.

Here is the mapcycle I came up with using some of your suggestions:

sv_name "Bungie.net Maw Gathering"
sv_public True
sv_maxplayers 16
sv_rcon_password
sv_mapcycle_timeout 5
sv_tk_ban 4
sv_tk_grace 2
sv_tk_cooldown 60
sv_ban_penalty 10m 1d
sv_mapcycle_add bloodgulch classic_ctf
sv_mapcycle_add hangemhigh classic_slayer
sv_mapcycle_add dangercanyon assaultz hogs-only humna weapons
sv_mapcycle_add icefields racer short range weapons all-hogs
sv_mapcycle_add gephyrophobia NosheeCTF
sv_mapcycle_add boardingaction classic_snipers
sv_mapcycle_add icefields 10secCTF 10-sec respawn to help flag capping
sv_mapcycle_add putput classic_phantoms kill your target everyone invis
sv_mapcycle_add dangercanyon ctf
sv_mapcycle_add damnnation classic_team_slayer
sv_mapcycle_add bloodgulch CTFnorm
sv_mapcycle_add carousel team_slayer
sv_mapcycle_add sidewinder classic_ctf
sv_mapcycle_add hangemhigh plasmaparty all plasma infinate stickies
sv_mapcycle_add deathisland DeathCTF 1 ghost, shee and tank
sv_mapcycle_add wizard juggernaut
sv_mapcycle_add gephyrophobia teamsnipe
sv_mapcycle_begin

Gametype suggestions after the Gathering will be taken into consideration.


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.

My life is so busy now, but I can try to make it. No promises though.

Ah, who am I kidding? The chances of me being there are not very likely...but that doesn't mean I won't try.

I know. I am sorry for my abrupt and lengthy hiatus. I've missed this place. I do not know how long I'll be here, but hopefully I'll be able to frag with you guys, once or twice, in the coming weeks.

Thank you for the welcome, old friend.

Hey Mckeegan. Welcome back. =D

There's one thing that confuses me. What makes the Maw Server/Maw Gathering so popular, with people immediately saying they're come or try to come? (no offense Igg, your server's awesome) I don't know, I posted a thread about my {LP}/Maw Gathering last night about 3-5 hours before I set it up, and yet, not one person shows up. It shouldn't be because it's recognized as a feeble, minor server, I alerted everyone on my new idea of having external Maw Gatherings every other day in my other thread. I also don't tiep liek theess, and n0t poost th3 ip at @ll, and cl@iming ill b3 the 0ne in th3 sh33. I layed it out just like how Igg and K121 does it.

I'm wondering, how come my server never got any attention? Most people should know by now, I posted a thread about my new idea just recently...any answers?

Dude, seriously. The Maw gathering threads are always announced one or two days before the gathering itself, thus giving plenty of people time to reply and to see the thread before they join the server. Not only that, but you only just recently posted about your gathering--Iggwilv must have been posting gathering threads for years. Stuff like this takes time. Be patient. You'll see. You can't just expect everybody to want to pop into your server just like that, but they'll join the Maw server all the time because they know it's always going to be there, it's always going to be reliable. Just take it slow, dude.

Oh no no, don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying rush things, or anyone in that matter. I didn't even expect more than 5-8 people yesterday, but never expected...zero...xD

Yes, but this forum has a very slow-pace, and you posted your thread at a time when not too many people were viewing the Maw. If Iggwilv posted a thread at Monday, saying that the next gathering was to be on Tuesday night, at let's say, 7:00 AM, I would not know until I came home about seven or so hours later. But that would still give me plenty of time to remember a Maw gathering is coming up.

But, if Iggwilv posted that same thread, but instead of saying the gathering was on Tuesday, but instead that very day, I wouldn't know until after I came from school. And who knows, I might have homework, I might have to stay after school, I might be very busy. This also applies to other people, who might have jobs or weddings to attend to, or God knos what. When the Maw gathering threads are posted ahead of time, people have the opportunity to work their schedules out. See?

I appreciate your "recommendations", but every post you have made about the problems of my thread/server, you seem to be rubbing it in my face. I get it all right?

When I forget to announce the Gathering until the same day very few people come. The other thing is my server has been around for over a year so it is famaliar to people who don't even come to these forums. Just be patient.
