I would like to formally thank brothersgtmongo for pulling people from all different clans(while we're on Live) into matches and mix matching us and playing some good games...especially since we dont always play seize ground. We usually get some dreadnaught and capture the flag going too. I for one feel alot closer to the community and would like to thank him for gathering us up for the greater good of the space marine clans.

2nd! i didnt play the other night i was invited and thought it was a great idea!!

[NightWolf889]

Same, had some good fun.

[Kokokacho]

Yeah, i agree. And I would also like to apologize. I don't remember it, but apparently I played saturday night when I was piss drunk. So, sorry to anyone who had to put up with my obnoxious ass.

[Optic20]

Had a great time, would do it again - *Hint*hint*

[Ryankamun II]

This is not at all picking on Kokokacho, but if there's one complaint I have about how this has been going its people who are joining the game and then not participating. If you can't play, don't join a game, you're just ruining it for whoever is stuck with you on their team.

That out of the way I can't say enough about how much I appreciate the time and energy Mongo has spent in getting things organized. There may be other players that I'm not aware of supporting what Mongo is doing in a more involved manner, but from what I can tell he's the impetus behind it all (just saying that my omission of your name isn't intentional I just am ignorant of your involvement), and is spending his personal time doing something to make things more fun for everyone else. And what more could you ask for from someone?

So thanks, Mongo.

Brothers,
It should be I offering the thanks here...
Thanks for putting up with me, the initial confusion and the warp storms of xbl...

Also thanks to darksaint for the original dlc revival thread, another brilliant idea I fully intend to pick up
In his stead.

For those of you who may be following the "blood games" forums, the beta "rapid reinforcement wireless vox network" aka " Battle Net" is coming online this week, and I plan to work the bugs out over the next two weeks. I could use as much help and feedback as humanly possible, both with the "battle net" and the last few thousand other tasks still left to research, implement and test before the games begin...
If you should find yourself starting feel the urge to help out in this ever expanding endevour of mine, I ask that you first approach a complete stranger and begin, and attempt to win an argument about nothing, using only a trombone that has fallen into disrepair to carry your side of the debate. (as I have begun to find out, that is one of the easier aspects of planning this event)

In all seriousness, if you would like to get involved in any way to help support this great community we have made, contact me either here (GW) or the XBL.

Thank you, again, Brothers...
I'm honored, and quite happy to continue to make more of this happen.

[Kokokacho]

Count me in for the next one, mongo. I swear I'll be sober. It's been over a year since I've gotten that drunk, and if it takes another year for it to happen again, it'll be too soon

[SuperFreakyNick]

I'll help with anything that needs done. I have a ton of free time.

[Cypher 1013]

This is wonderful. Shows what the community is all about.

[Commander Mongo]

Brothers!

Last nights play test, while a bit scattered ( from what I hear of the earlier sessions)
My apologies as I was unable to reach my Xbox until much later then I had anticipated.
I will be on in about 30 min from now for a bit, then back on little later.
Times:
Mongo: SAT MAY 19th (4pm EST, 9pm GMT) for about an hour...
And then from (8pm EST, 1am GMT) only in death will my duty end...
Gamertag: same as here, BrotherSgtMongo

Overall I am pleased to call last night a resounding success considering the rush job to set it up.
Let's keep it rolling tonight!
Remember to war your Blood Games armour.
5v5 Kill teams. If you get a good room of 10 guys, keep randomly rotating the teams, keeping them as random as can be.
I will post a link to the forum set up for the play testing for this week, and from there it will tell you what to do. Also cycle through the new maps obviously, but I was in a couple of Blood Games last night and we rotates between seize ground, CTF, and annihilation, win!
If I could ask yous to try and record the scores of each game, pick a librarian, to hadle the recording and reporting to the site, and choose a codicer to act as an Exo. They will arrange the matches, record and report. And if any of you have the ability to take screen caps of the scores, and or cool or funny from the matches, we can post them on the site as well. (video would be sweet!) I have a 37 " flat screen and I use my iPhone 3GS on a home made tripod to record the games. It comes out really good and it won't cost you money to set up!

SUN MAY 20th (1:30/2pm EST, 6:30/7pm GMT) only in death will my duty end...
*i am supposed to be engaging the deathwatch with my fellow scars Sunday I believe @3 pm est.

Lastly, To all of you who played in the earlier rounds , what did you think, how did you set it up? How did the armours look?
Oh... And
Thank you to all of you who participated last night, and those that will continue through the weekend. You have all helped my tremendously and for that I can not quantify my gratitude.
Batman: forgive my dissaperance, my daughter fell out of bed thanks to a nightmare, and so she passed out in my lap.

Mongo: out

[Dominion]

I was there for a bit at the beginning just to warm you guys up. had to crash, tired from all the battlebrothers I laid to waste yesterday happy to see some of the wolves running around. my brother doorman69420 spotted them right away. didn't really pay attention to the armor stuff. I like playing on the dlc maps so Ill probably get in on the next round. anyways great organizing brother Mongo!
