Humility condition: normal

Last night, RoboGriff and I played Halo 2 with some guys from work. This is the first LAN party we've had with them in months. Mind you, these are the same fellows that made me cry when I first started playing with them last November. Last night, we dominated those guys. I was seriously feeling bad for some of them. After RoboGriff left for the night, I played a round of snipers with them on Headlong and... well... it's a good thing we set score-to-win at 10. Right at the end, I got the whatever-it-is medal for 10 kills, no deaths. So, totally psyched, I went home and hooked up my Xbox again. I want to thank those of you (you know who you are) who restored my proper sense of humility within a round or two.

Yes, it is surprising (or, maybe not) how few beekeepers it takes to restore my humility.

Oh. My. God. Honestly, I just had the funniest game of my entire life! I used the shotgun adn got about 4 kills within the first minut or so of the game, and then afterwards, I didn't fire a single shot. I just ran to the hill, hid, and let everyone else fight it out while I giggled like Krystyn! (Get better soon!) I ended up with 7 kills, most from beating people down, and winning the game by about a 20 second margin!
Ghandi was a good man!

The modders will rue the day they crossed the ILB clan! Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad Evil or Very Mad

BTW- Ubercado is really good at pulling strings *cough*nagging*cough* while on the phone. Razz I would not at all be surprised if action was taken against the modders we faced tonight b/c of Ubercado's eloquent people skills. Two thumbs up! Smile Smile

That was the weirdest and most frustrating cheating seen yet.

Dudes flying all over the map, moving quadruple speed, teleporting all over the place, mowing people down way too quickly with just a battle rifle or whatever ...

Ubercado is one maaaad dude on the phone, but he's right, it totally spoils the mood when someone does that. I still feel crappy about it, and it's putting me into a foul mood.

What jerks. I am sure they will be banned any minute now.

Transcript of email...(sent after I calmed down...grrr...argg)

To whom it may Concern,

While playing on Xbox Live last night, My group of players were the unfortunate victims of a cheater and/or modder. Not once by twice on the same map, Containment. I know that Bungie had addressed this issue in one of their Weekly Updates and I belive that they are doing all that they can but, it really needs to be stopped soon.

My gamer tag is Ubercado. I play usually with a Group of us that meet up during the "i love bees" game that was running before Halo 2 shipped.

The Gamer Tags in question are as follows:

H4nk The T4nk - Moving at incredible speed to capture the flag during a Match
Majin Sephy - Moving at incredible speed to arm a bomb and flying during a Match
LesbianSeaguls - Flying a warthog as if a banshee
Karismo - Flying a warthog as if a banshee and being an uncoothed cur

The link to the game viewers are:

H4NK the T4NK - http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStats.aspx?gameID=216435600

The other 3 - http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStats.aspx?gameID=216369613

Now if we were beaten in a NORMAL game, all is well and good and can chalk it up to them being better players and/or having better team work but, this was not the case.

Please look into this matter and remove these "players" from the service for they are hurting the very thing y'all have worked so hard to create.

Thank you for your time,

Look, I know I got a Killtacular with two beat-downs right before I won an oddball game I lead throughout the match last night, but I swear I wasn't cheating. You gotta believe me!

That sucks! If you look at Hank the SepticTank's stats, I dont think I have ever seen so many games deamed NA. He jumps from one end of Containment to the other! I really hope this guy gets the Banhammer shoved up unmentionable places. Hopefully next time I will be with you to help battle the forces of the small and pathetic.

What transpired last night was just sad. I have always enjoyed playing on Containment before last night. Mostly due to a certain Sheila type tank lady...

But after last nights events, I now am going to look on Containment with not the same gleaming luster as I have before...kinda like a ever present sense of foreboding doom.

It has nothing do to with y'all cause you know I extremely enjoy playing with y'all, but it is kinda like the fun died last night on that map for me.

Until Bungie implements their fixes as referenced in last weeks weekly update, I don't think that Containment is gonna be as fun for me as it has been.

I mean really...why do some people have to do things like that in the first place...I can see if it was in a custom game played with friends or something like that and everyone agreed on it, but in matchmaking?!?

Does that little number beside your name mean THAT much to some people that they feel the urge to ... but, I digress...

On another note, I think it was b-flat, I would like to once again express my sincerest applogies to everyone last night after I got off the phone...I was a bit, how can one say....gruff...yeah, that will work...and I will try not to let it happen again. My bad...

Here is a bit of info that I gleamed today...

Quote:
To date, our Banhammer has caught over 1,000 people who we have found to be guilty of using hacked content, standbying, boosting, etc... This is just a drop in the bucket but we continue to develop new tools and methods to make detection and banning quicker and more robust. Eventually, we'll purge these jerks from our community.


At least they are trying...

That sucks. A lot. But at least you know they are working on it. ^.^

I didn't post my name in here, but I also didn't play ILBs. So...Here is my gamertag:
Unctious

If any of you guys get the friend request, please don't reject it. You guys are cool, and I want to play with you guys. Smile
