Title: Xboxlive Teams

http://www.teamwarfare.com/
http://www.teamwarfare.com/ladderlist.asp
http://www.teamwarfare.com/viewteam.asp?team=Redemption+Players


This site lets a team of people face off with different games and i was wondering if anyone out there who has xboxlive would like to make a team? If you do just let me know.
Let me know if anyone is interested in doing this and I'll get everything set up. =) The only thing to note is that the rules require us to play matches at 8:30 pm-10:30 pm EST depending on what is decided between the teams in case that makes a difference. We can play on any day so we can arrange to have the matches on a day that you'll know you will be available. hope this interests someone out there.

*note* If you are going to join the team make sure you at least send me a message so i know who will be joining so i can get the word out when matches are and stuff like that

Cool. You do have to sign up for a profile on the site and after you make a profile you have to go to it and add your ID(scroll to the bottom for xboxlivegamertag) and then after you've done that you just join the teams you like.

If you are gonna make a team I would do it at http://www.gamebattles.com (http://www.gamebattles.com) since Gamebattles is part of MLG.

This site does ladders which is different from this site's teams and i think a ladder would be fun to at least try first and then if everyone wants to we could do this, assuming that it doesn't cost money....

Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Master KChief on July 23, 2008, 12:53:03 AM
we're doing a 2v2 ladder and a 4v4 ladder. we definately need one more person. also, even if that spot was taken, theres no harm in signing up, in case 1 of us cannot play during a certain match time.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: redemption99 on July 23, 2008, 01:59:12 AM
Yea, sign up no matter what because sometimes someone might not be able to play.

actually, our team all switched to Barbie's Super Fun Adventure. we play against other teams in the online ladder now. its...super fun.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Lawfuldog on July 24, 2008, 09:47:35 AM
It is. No lie.

Master KChief is our Barbie's Super Fun Adventure team captain. He's the dude with the brains behind the fashions, hair styles, and amazingly awesome pink sport cars.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Master KChief on July 24, 2008, 10:08:40 AM
now we just have to schedule our next practice session for...uh, the super hairstyling competition ladder.

i think we should just all post our schedules and what times we'll be available to play online. i know i saw jannisary playing online late last night, but we didnt have a chance to play together...
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Alex_Olijar on July 24, 2008, 10:47:04 AM
Yeah, I usually am on between 10-12 at night (East Coast Time). I always play sporadically during teh day and sometimes, from say, 8 PM, I play. So, anything past 8 PM is usually good for me.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Lawfuldog on July 24, 2008, 02:47:47 PM
I play in the 7-10 PM hours. But I'll sometimes play during the day, if I'm bored and didn't have anything previously scheduled.

Although, because my XboxLive mic is wireless and I can't find the charger, I won't be able to talk online until I find it.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Master KChief on July 24, 2008, 02:54:51 PM
i have 4 extra ones; i can mail you one if you need it. communication is crucial for team play.

4? Wow. Someone works at Gamestop.

Post by: redemption99 on July 24, 2008, 03:35:10 PM
it should be easy to validate and stuff and to join you have to go to our teams page and click the join button under the categories you want

*edit* we still need at least one more for 4v4 and as many ppl that can please sign up =)
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Alex-CB on July 26, 2008, 12:21:21 PM
I would but I just sold my 360. But some of my friends have them. I can make a n00b account on their Box's and maybe play some time. If you want me PM.
BTW check out my stats from my old accounts. I can still use T3am HavoK if you want.
This is my T3am Havok account:

Post by: Lawfuldog on July 26, 2008, 05:25:54 PM
The 29th is my birthday and I have a party that night, but I should probably be done before 10.

If you want me to play, I'm all for it. But I gotta warn you... I'm not too great at High Ground.  ;D
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Alex_Olijar on July 26, 2008, 05:26:45 PM
I would seriously play, but it won't send me validation emails. Stupid website. I want to dress up the Barbies!

Post by: redemption99 on July 29, 2008, 11:14:22 PM
Our team is now number 1# in 2v2 we won our first match (the others that we challenged on the way to the top forfeited). so we are 1-0 and in first.

Let me know(the guys that are signed up right now) what maps you want me to pick...

here are the choices...

Map List:


Construct

Epitaph

Guardian

High Ground

Isolation

Last Resort

Narrows

Snowbound

The Pit
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Alex_Olijar on July 29, 2008, 11:37:40 PM
Guardian, Epitath, Snowbound, High Ground is my order of preference.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Master KChief on July 30, 2008, 12:57:36 AM
guardian is #1. nuff said.

i prefer the pit next. high ground, construct, and narrows are ok sometimes.

i loathe epitaph and last resort.

btw, did you upload any vids to your fileshare red99? i'd like to see the matches.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: redemption99 on July 30, 2008, 01:27:20 AM
i'll go do that right now.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Lawfuldog on July 30, 2008, 12:39:41 PM
In order of Preference: The Pit - Construct - Isolation - Guardian - High Ground - Epitaph - Last Resort - Narrows - Snowbound.

If at all possible, I would rather not play on Snowbound. Especially considering it will be the built in Snowbound and will be a shotgun camping fest. Not fun at all.

The Pit = Happiness. That's my best map, with Construct and Isolation being a close second.

The maps in the middle of the list, I don't really care about. I'm not terrible at them, and I'm not that great at them. With the maps in the middle of the list, it's mostly based off of who can grab the Shotgun, Rockets, Snipers, etc.. first.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: redemption99 on July 30, 2008, 03:03:03 PM
We have been challenged and i picked two dates for the time, next monday and next tuesday. and i picked the pit as the first map
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: redemption99 on August 03, 2008, 01:49:20 AM
ATTENTION: OUR NEXT MATCH IS MONDAY, AUGUST FOURTH FOR 2v2! it's at 10 pm again EST of course. so let me know which of you can play!

The maps are:

Constuct
The Pit
HighGround (idk how the random is highground again, some random eh?)

Let me know who can play thanks!
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Lawfuldog on August 03, 2008, 09:58:27 AM
Since I played the last matches, MKC can play.

If for some reason he can't play, I'll be happy to play in his place.  :)



->This post is brought to you by the Halo 3 map society of America saying: If you don't like The Pit, GO HOME.<-

Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Master KChief on August 03, 2008, 07:43:57 PM
i've been playing too much sc4 (and zero h3), so im afraid my skills are a bit rusty atm. plus i've got to get ready for nationals. and besides, the only map there i remotely like is the pit, and the other two are mediocre to me...so lawful, you're more than welcome to play.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: redemption99 on August 03, 2008, 08:20:58 PM

Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Lawfuldog on August 15, 2008, 07:05:14 PM

Post by: Master KChief on August 20, 2008, 10:16:20 AM
im guessing it went ok, because we're now 4-0. i wouldnt know how it went though...i accidentally forgot about it and slept through the time...:D

btw, when are we going to get some 4v4 going on?
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Lawfuldog on August 20, 2008, 10:43:33 AM
 :D I forgot about it also.

I wonder who played...  ???
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: redemption99 on August 20, 2008, 11:07:19 AM
idk...O_o strange. :P


Currently we are in the number 1 spot for 4v4 without a win....>.> and no one has challenged us..so idk when that will happen.

We might want to look into the offcial teams thing but i don't know anything about that.

There still hasn't been any activity on the ladders and i think the admins are thinking of taking them down. If anyone wants to try a different site or something let me know.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Master KChief on September 14, 2008, 09:04:15 PM
meh, i pretty much gave up on it too.

just been working on my big team ranked level before they reset the experience.
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: redemption99 on September 14, 2008, 09:26:09 PM
they're going to reset it?
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Master KChief on September 14, 2008, 11:39:18 PM
yes, check bungie.net. sometime after the 16th (the 16th was the official update date, but it got postponed a little bit). all experience will be reset, you will only retain your number level. everyone will again start off as a recruit. however, all playlists will have their seperate experience tracker, and you can actually get a level 50 in experience alone, not by just winning games. so this time around, it will be a bit easier to get that 50 :)
Title: Re: Xboxlive Teams
Post by: Lawfuldog on September 14, 2008, 11:41:04 PM
That's stupid. imo

Bungie might as well hand everyone there lvl 50, and ruin the high ranked games for the rest of us.
