It's been forever since we all got together and had a big intra-HTF arranged game, so I thought I'd put the call out to see who was interested in playing a big, arranged game this coming Saturday at 8PM west coast time. I figure we'll do an arranged game so no one will be concerned with losing ranking status.

I have a friend who has never been in a big team match, and the few times I've logged on, there's usually either 1) a bunch of cheaters doing the lag or glitch thing, 2) a bunch of well-organized people who just cream us in no-time flat, 3) a bunch of potty-mouthed 12 year olds.

Now we don't suck (though we aren't great), we are ranked 10 in team slayer. But because we don't have much experience in objective based games (which is what big team matches usually are given in matchmade games) we do suck at that. It's also hard to just join a random team when the opposing team is made up of guys who game together. Teamwork tends to suffer.

And no, I'm not a puritan, I don't mind the occassional F- or S-bomb (I say them myself). But there are only so many racial epithets and other various direct insults I can take before getting really PO'd.

So I'm putting a call out to our fellow HTF'ers to see if we all want to arrange a big team game. I'd like to keep it to mostly HTFers, but if there's a lack of interest (i.e. we can't fill all 16 spots up) we can each invite like 1 friend to fill up the spots. Please be able to vouch for these guys as we want to make this a FUN thing, not a trash-talking ultra competitive thing.

Anyone who is interested please reply to this thread, and include your gamertag. I'm part of the HTF2 clan so I'll send an invite to everyone in our clan who's online at the time, but if you aren't in the clan (or aren't sure) then just include your gamertag in your post and I'll be sure to send you an invite.

Oh, and I understand that for east coasters that start time is at 11pm. If you all want to start earlier, by all means do so. I'll create the party when I get online and send out invite to you all.

Hope to see you all online!
