Like the new scoring system. But the games got longer. Maybe lowering the win total?

Yup. I think the next lowest is 400. I can do that or maybe give 5 points for an exclusive kill. Game winners typically had 30 kills. Five more than previous tournaments.

I thought you were too young? If not then come on out for the fun. It's kind of like the FFA on Thursday except no AA or armour mods. Just people having fun trying to see who still has what it takes.

So no load outs...no stability or starting with stickies...but are there load out options? Ie can I start with a carbine?

There are game loadouts and one of them has a Carbine + Storm Rifle + 1 Plasma Nade. Not sure if I can add stability but I'd be scared to play if it was in.

That load out totally works for me :) Maybe next time I will be all brave and join!

A great time!! Glad Kit could join us!

My short chase for the assassination usually works on DEEP, just not on you Medic.

Thanks, but I won't be joining again. I dunno what trick you guys know that I don't lol. Hubby even asked at one point "what weird game type are you playing? You spawn with no shields, with two grenades thrown at you as you spawn, over and over."

[size=24][u][b]Congratulations![/b][/u][/size]

[b]July's official Over Age 40 [u]Halo 4[/u] winner, is [size=18][color=blue]MEDIC113[/color][/size][/b]

MEDIC113 offered any awards to second place which was LL ANTON LL so I'll be submitting LL ANTON LL's desired avatar choice to 343i.

I notice the mice were wreaking Hell in the tournament. Nirvana missed her greatest opportunity ever. Must have been the wine. ;)

15 great members showed up and we went with one party and 4 rounds to 400.

Thanks to all for turning out.

Please think about scoring systems and gametypes we can use for this competition. I.E. Should we continue to use a kills + assists scoring method?

Opinions on loadouts is welcome too.

Apologies to anyone excluded from the competition. I know I shut the door in your face sometimes.

Remember to log on early, have your [u]Halo 4[/u] disk in and show online to get a timely invite. I try to start on time and it takes extra effort to setup a second room if required. Coming early helps in that scenario. I usually have the room open till a short time before game start.
