That's actually a perfect time for me to get fragged by you guys. I've been trying to get on a Zombie's night since the Austin Slap'n'Tickle but work is taking too much of my weekdays time. I had fun playing at the party and I want to be part of some Halo 3 nights whenever possible!

Had a great time tonight, from the full on GWJ vs GWJ games to the ranked play that ended around 5am...

There goes my Friday and Sunday nights!

P.S. Love the picture!!!

Sorry I didn't take the invites, guys. When I couldn't get in the first time, I started playing with a RL friend who had a pretty rough weekend at home, so I just played and chatted with him.

Very, very interested in joining next time though!

I'm there. Last night was probably the most fun I've had in matchmaking ever. Just one thing:

This makes me happy to hear that Danjo actually had fun in Halo3 matchmaking.

Sounds fun, although to be perfectly honest Zombie Skate may be enough for me until I play all the single player games from this fall. I love Halo multiplayer, both for "serious" games and for screwing around, but I also love paying single player games and too many planned multiplayer nights a week just doesn't work for me most of the time.

@ Liquid Mantis - HA!
@ snorlax789 - There is always room, I am sure there are some lower ranked people here with whom to join up with to go into Ranked.
It can be frustrating to team up with the higher ranked guys, because the opposition *usually* is matched based on the highest ranked individuals. In Social matches, you can go in with a mixed bag, and *usually* be matched up with an equally mixed group.

EDIT - Sometimes there isn't room, actually. But it is never personal.

Oh, I'm used to having a target painted on my back. I've never mastered things like grenade jumping or crouch jumping, so I always feel like I'm at a disadvantage in Halo multiplayer.

Join me... in frag-suicide (sticky grenade and close-quarter grenade/rocket launcher kills) and the long-jump (while bunny hopping, something explodes beneath you and your corpse takes off- nice views of the map from way up there).

Hey, I could actually play on Sundays. Ever since I started school I have too much going on weeknights for Zombie Skate.

Of course, that probably means I'm out of practice and terrible.

If you consider yourself "casual" then you might do better on Zombie Skatepocalypse on thursday night, though, that's more of a casual night.

We shall grapple with the ineffable, and see if we may not eff it after all.

To be fair though, our "hardcore" Halo night is what most people consider "normal" Halo.

I'm definitely a "casual" (ie completely inexperienced) Halo player, so I'll try out at Zombie Skatepocalypse first and see how I do there. If all else fails, Max Shrek and I can form the frag-suicide squad.

In Ultima Online I used to poison hams and leave them on the ground in cities for people to pick up and eat. I can't believe how many people thought street ham was a good thing to eat. -Elliottx
