that is the best part of that movie

Figures you'd think so.

chess: Now that we have set a weekly night for RDR, are you convinced enough to pick up a copy and join us?

I give it a few weeks before you guys get bored with Grand Theft Horse.

I just really really hate GTA's gunplay and cover system.

I hated the last GTA.

This game is an entirely different matter.

You going to be able to make it next Wednesday, Flipper?

I hope so. I couldn't get on last time because we kept getting power surges from the storm. I didn't want to watch my 60g go up in flames.

Awesome. I think it will be a lot more fun with even teams, we were odd this week.

'Odd' is certainly one way to call it.

chess: Are you back from your trip and hosting tomorrow?

Yep...I'm on it...missed you guys. Maybe with a frizby to kill, folks will show up.

cruz...are you in? Need to know for DLC purposes.

Can we do a Northern Bridge CTF match, where we ban warhawks altogether? No jetpacks either. People have to take the flag down the bridge, I think it would be a lot of fun if we have quite a few members online.

nope. sorry. Had to shell out even more car problem money last week ($600 worth, but the engine purrs now.) which put a damper on my mad money (video game money).

I don't do Northern Bridge as CTF, as it's not a fair CTF map. The Chernovian side is super-easy to defend.

Spire Shut-In might be an interesting alternative with the courtyard. We could do it as the second map.

Also, I'm thinking (1) Knives and Nades on the first map, and (2) Cruz is a cocktease.

"I'd play with you guys, but I have to wax my dog."

I would prefer that Communique map we usually play if you don't mind and if Lee isn't playing. I think it would be better because with no warhawks there's only one way in to get the flag and Spire Shut-In has too much space around the bases for what I'm hoping to achieve. Not to mention APC vehicles would be a big help in a no-warhawk CTF game.

Update...work prevails tomorrow evening, and I'm likely to be about a half-hour late.

Chew...can you step in again? Will check with Lee to see if he's coming out.

Terrible idea. If you don't have Warhawks, you at least need a bottleneck you can defend.

And APCs without Warhawks are pretty much unstoppable...or perhaps that's what you were going for.

Sure. Once you find out about Lee, can you give me a map rotation to use?

I'll be on in time, but won't have more than 10-15 minutes to go through and pick stuff.

i will probably be a little late tonight, probably like 8:30 or 9:00

Lee said he'd try to be on tonight. My guess is that if he has fun tonight, he'll pick up the DLC.

List off the top of my head for Chew:

Badlands - DM - Fortress - 30 min (K&N)
Eucadia - TDM - Urban Strike - 20 min
Island Outpost - CTF - Island Battle - 20 min
Archipelago - CTF - Acropolis Assault - 20 min
Badlands - CTF - Supply Chain - 20 min
Eucadia - TDM - Northern Bridge - 20 min
Island Outpost - CTF - Over the Bridges - 20 min
Eucadia - CTF - Summit Command - 20 min
Destroyed Capital - CTF - King of the Hill - 20 min
Archipelago - TDM - Close Corridors - 20 min

Recommend you save a DLC and non-DLC rotation with at least the staples. Thanks for stepping in. I should be in just a bit after 7pm.

Everybody who can, please try to show up on time since several will be late.

Thanks, that'll make things a lot quicker.

BTW: I really hate how selections seem to disappear on the other tabs. I had to go back to each one a few times last week and update them again.

Always do the maps first...and then do everything else.

Sean and Don are in the same boat as me with work and will be on a bit late.
