Call of PWN

There's been a little confusion on a few Pwnathon matters I'd like to clear up.  First of all, the Pwnathon will be from July 1-31.  We'll have a full Month of Pwn.  Some of our activities will span the entire month.  Some will be spread out through that timeframe.  The 2o2p LAN will also be raising funds for Child's Play, but is being managed by a different group.  We're all one happy family, we're just working a bit separately.  Finally, WTF is the Pwnathon?  Scroll down to see my last blog on the 2008 Pwnathon.  The Pwnathon will just be a series of events that are geared towards having fun and raising donations for Child's Play.  It's a celebration of 2old2play and the type of people that meet here.  We intend to include everyone and we invite anyone to plan an event.

We're still looking to see some more involvement.  Sports fans?  We also have need for people that have special skills outside of just loving a particular game.  I have a strong need in the marketing department.  If you have writing skills or would like to be involved in contacting companies for involvement and swag, send me a PM.

Along the lines of involvement.... So, uhm, I thought that COD had a pretty big following here on 2o2p?  I've seen the heated COD vs Halo threads.  I've seen bragging on both sides after Major Nelson's usage reports come out.  I have to say, as far as the Pwnathon goes, Halo is looking like it will be completely pwning COD.  For that matter, Gears2, Forza and some other games will be way more active than COD in this year's Pwnathon. 

To be fair, the Pwnathon started as a primarily Halo event in 2008.  Halo has a pretty big head start.  Also, the 2old2shoot clan is stepping up and may be planning an event or two for COD.  I've had a little interest outside of that too.  Still, the Pwnathon's Halo Director, Jonny12gauge (2old2playHalo clan OL) is attacking his task with a vengeance.  He has contacted various other communities and contacts.  He's cooking up some sweet events.  Also, we have a Halo themed advertisement (scroll down a couple posts), and the Halo game developer (Bungie) has featured our event on their front page twice.

I'm not saying Halo community is better than the COD community here.  I just don't want the COD crowd to think they've been stiffed come this July.  Just consider this a notice that we're looking for more.  SPwngeBob is not happy.
