So it's Team Last Man Standing? Ten minute limit?

And can Brian or Poison host? My connection is usually too slow, and I haven't heard from Mike yet (MMM).

I don't have a great connection either, but I may be able to hold four okay. If Brian and triple-M are in the same boat then we can try mine.

Joey, in the interest of those without speedy connections, how about banning explosives?

My upspeed isn't great, so I'd rather not host... And I'd definitely be fine with banning explosives.

definately not fine with banning explosives

Banning explosives is for wimps and communists :)

I want my grenade launcher, it's part of how I play damnit :)

That punk Romier said he'd try to rent a copy and play. Worse comes to worse I bet we can get him to donate his FatPipe

Is it too late to enter?
I would say 'no' (the more the merrier), but Joey's organizing this hoe-down.

I'll put in a vote for explosives as well. And I wouldn't mind unlockables, either.

I have to try to get on this evening so my first game in months isn't the actual tournament!

Well aside from explosives being the MadCat of Ghost Recon (:D), the reason I ask is not to cut down on cheesiness, but because some servers just might not be able to handle them and I think it's important that we remain consistent from game to game.

are explosives making you intangible for half the game? Nope ;)

I don't know why they'd be any different than any other weapon.....

I'm not sure I understand your question, Jeff?

Explosives do put a big load on the server, and that's something that affects those of us with limited upload speed. Okay, put it this way--any game that I host I am going to restrict kits to no explosives out of necessity. When I host it's either play a fairly smooth game without grenades, or a choppy lagfest with them.

That being the case, the decision can be made on a tournament level to either carry that kit restriction across all matches to be consistent, or not. Doesn't matter to me as I don't use them.

Jeff, whenever an explosive weapon is fired, it overloads the network connection. If you've a superfast connection, you're fine, but on lower speeds, it causes tons & tons of lag to any player in the area of the weapon effect.

Remember that grenade fragfest we had last week? It was a complete lagfest for me. I couldn't even fire my own grenades correctly because of the lag.

FIRST- Tonight the tournament is going to start 45 minutes later at 9:45 instead of 9:00. so if you want use the time to practice

I forgot tonight is the Islanders playoff game and my friend got some tickets so im going there. Game is over at 9:30 but i live not too far so ill be home in time


Rob if you can get a teammate you can sign up. Ill just add a extra round into the play. Let me know so i can re-arrange the game schedule.

Oh damn it all to hell, it appears my wife has invited some of her friends to dinner to see the new baby tonight. How she could fail to check my Xbox Live schedule escapes me (:)) but it appears my Xboxing will be curtailed this evening. I may be able to get on by 9:45, but just to be safe why don't you take my spot, Rob? You would be teamed up with "Deadeye" Bairdy, so you have to like your chances.

It appears all my explosive-related whining was for naught.

Sorry, guys, I really am. I was looking forward to this. :angry:

Hey guys i hate to do this but the tournament is postponed . At the moment im at the isles game using my friends wireless internet thingy to send this. I dont think ill be home by 9:45. We parked very close to the stadium and it will probably take a hour just to get out. We usually park near the exit but everyone else was smart and arrived early :)

Fine by me ;) Though I'm still stuck in work... The joys of E3... But I *should* be home in time for a game. [added] I'm off home in 15, so I'll definitely be on.

Rob, if you're online before 9:45pm, send me an invite & we can do some practice rounds in.

Anyone have any suggestions on suitable maps?

I forgot how much fun GR is with you folks.

My guy didn't show (and the tourney is on hold apparently) so I'm off to play catch with my pup.
