    Also I need to find a clan we can have a friendly clan match with. Being undefeated so far due to other clans/forums losing or just plain resigning/chickening out is boring :( I mean, it was amusing assimiliating the VGCats creator for that one night..

    You know, since we tend to have so many people on. Why not just have a friendly match against ourselves?

    We could easily field a 5v5 maybe even a 6v6/7v7 on a good night. Just jump into some customs (Maybe Social Slayer/Skirmish if it's 5v5), try to make the teams even, and play a few matches.

    We could go back in forth from normal Slayer/CTF/Assault/Territories games on regular maps to things a bit more unique like Run for Cover/Dodgeball/Griffball/etc on custom made maps.

    For starters, we can't play match-making, and let bungie even out our teams, it doesn't work.

    Secondly, we all kind of know where we stand on the totem pole here, so some people don't enjoy having Joe as a teammate and Bob as an opponent.

    Thirdly, and this only applies to me typically, people sharing a console are always paired together, no matter what. Thus, TeaParty and I will always be on the same team, no matter what.

    I bring up this last point because I don't think you understand how beneficial it is to have a 2nd screen to leech off of.


    This is why we have random custom games/maps. My Minotaur map, that Trash Compactor map, Thrill's box beatdown map, etc...

    Some of the stuff that Fyre was cycling through on his marathon was fucking brilliant.

    I've added Joolander and acid. I assume you guys don't have the paid maps, which works out great, because neither do I right now. Make sure you do download the free Heroic pack and Cold Storage map from Marketplace, though.

    Read the OP and then forget everything you read in it. We have a set of rules that is only really followed if there's a specific team loadout - it's there because that's what that team is good at, and TBK has grown a ton since then.

    Also, Yorker hasn't updated his own OP because he's a mute and can't do anything right if it has to do with communication. His GT is now PA Yorker, not MLG Norseman. Also, the playlists have changed slightly - the most up-to-date playlists can be found here.

    Just updated the gamertag list, I'm pretty sure the playlist DLC requirements haven't changed since the thread was posted though.

    Aww, the thread's dead. It was humorous that he felt like he was making a valid argument, and how quickly Fyre's pictures usurped control over the thread.

    You just have a high Charisma score; probably either a 16 or 18. That's either a +3 or +4 modifier, which is exceptional for an NPC.

    Anyone in desperate need for some free Live time? I just found an unused 1-month card, think it might be from the last time I got my 360 repaired, PM me.

    EDIT: Canadians need not apply.

    Yeah, I got one of those as well with my repaired console, which kinda annoyed me since my 360 automatically renewed its year of Live just two days before I got the console back. Well, at least I still have it for next year.

    Well yeah, but I've been buying a lot of stuff recently that I would've preferred to get a free month in before having to plunk down another 50 bucks. In the past month, I've bought three DS games (one was free), 1943, Worms 2, two expensive shirts, and a bunch of other stuff, and I'll be spending close to 130 on ODST and Soul Silver in a little over a month. And when you only work at a movie theatre for about 18 hours a week and should really start thinking about what you're going to do a year from now once you are done with college and should really start saving money, that's a lot of purchases.

    Ehh, you have the right to, i haven't been updating the OP too much.

    I just added a whole bunch of people to the list though (and removed Auburn since he sold his 360 and got a Wii and a DS).

    Except the Canadians, those guys make me fucking sick.

    He wasn't a team player, atleast not when he played with us.

    After our 4th or 5th game of flags with him behind our base with the sniper rifle, not making any effort to touch their flag, or recap ours... I gave up on him.

    Then, between his remade accounts and constantly asking for achievement help; the guy was just annoying as shit. Especially when he used to come in here every game or 2 to brag about his amazing +6 (in a game where he contributed 7 kills).

    I have to admit, the threads have been pretty great without him. :P
