Mondays, 8pm Central

So... how we're going to organize this mess...
If you plan on hosting this week, please post in this forum. If you are a host and see a goodjer log onto Gears, just send them an invite.
If you are a goodjer and you log on to play, look in this forum and send messages to those people who said they would host.
It's not the best plan in the world, but we don't have much choice.
I am hosting this week.
We shall grapple with the ineffable, and see if we may not eff it after all.

Ignore that... pointless post.
Is there a game today?

I've got a pretty good connection (10 down/1 up) so I can host if necessary.
My days of not taking you seriously have certainly come to a middle.

Just got done getting pwned by you guys in a little GoW. Loving it. I'll have to set the Tivo up for Heroes so I can start making these games. Admittedly, I didn't pull my own weight. Thanks to SoulDaddy for balancing the teams. See you guys online.
I will definetly be there Monday, and until then I am still up for some versus. Sorry to anyone that sent me an invite that I didn't respond to last night. I was playing coop with a friend.
Lobster Mobster:I find that f*cking a nice stinky cheese is an experience everyone should have at least once in their life.
Slightly off topic, is there a place I can order a Xbox Live Gold card for less than $50?
I need one ASAP to get to playing GoW with everyone.

I'm picking up the game after work today and I can't wait to play it. I sure wish we would of chosen a different day than monday, but I'm going to try and make it.
I'll be looking for some pick up games all week, though.
I'm looking forward to Monday, and am up for any pick up games as well. Anyone who wants to, feel free to add me to their friends list.

Hi Flux, if you haven't gotten a card yet, drop me a PM.

Amazon.com was selling 13-month cards for $35 last I checked.

Wow, nice. I was looking there and missed that.

I have a pretty good connection and can host. I'll probably be playing from 10:00 - 1:00am.
Lag used to be a lot worse back in the day. Hell, it took Jesus 3 days to respawn.

I'll be there, if my game ever shows up. And, y'know... ships.

Just got mine yesterday evening and have been letting it simmer on the coffee table, Certis-style. Soon I will open it, savor its new game aroma, and actually read the manual.
I'll be gaming about 12:00 central for the first time. Is anyone on this thread home and interested in a coop start from the beginning? I'll leave my 360 on so you can drop me a message at The Wanderer 14 (spaces btw each word).
Certis, do they curb stomp on the banks of the mighty Ganges?
PS: I would love to host on Monday, but I'll be coming late after Heroes.

Note to souldaddy and all would-be posters of events: for some reason, the calendar's time feature gives some of us massive, earth-destroying problems. So please always post in the text of your announcement what time the game is, WITH a time zone.
For instance, I'm correctly dialled in as a Central time zone user, and the last thread in this post shows that it occurred about 30 minutes before I'm writing this, which I find believable (as opposed to it showing that it took place after I'm writing this, or hours ago). What I see in the time setting for the event is that it's on Monday starting at 9pm. Which is fine if that's right...is it?
Anyway, if y'all could just post the time with time zone in the posts (and if souldaddy could tell me which one this is), I'll find something else to be a total pain in the butt about.
EDIT: nevermind what I said about my time setting being correct. Now it shows that I posted an hour later than I did. I swear I have tried to get my settings right a half-dozen times. So please, for the love of FSM, post the time in the text of the announcement!

Is there a centralized location of Xbox Live tags, or do we need to mine them from individual profiles?

I should be on for the scheduled game Monday, but I'm really hoping to have a chance to try the multiplayer at least a little before then. My schedule was a little off yesterday so I never got a chance to hook up with anyone.
I did want to note something. I couldn't sleep last night so at 3:30 in the AM I crept back out to the living room to finish up a couple of checkpoints (and maybe tire myself out) and I see that Legion is still hacking away. Bravo man, I envy your determination and apparent lack of employment.
You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.
I'm guessing there's no printer friendly version of this wonderful list?

I tried to reformat the GWJ Gamertag list in Word and it got pretty jumbled. It's be really nice to get a clean version somehow.

You have mastered zen and the art of video game purchases. Nice work. No curb stomping at the Ganges, it upsets the cows.
