Or if you kill Vash right? I can yell out "I killed Vash" on teamspeak, right? *Puppy dog eyes* Wink
The lag last night made me cry, next time we get in a custom game where it's like that, all we need to do is recreate the party, the game will pick a better host and it'll be all better.
My new favorite gametype is Dantes Inferno!

I'd like to make another plea for people to PLEASE try to keep the idle chitchat to a minimum during a game. Even in a custom game, a nonstop prattling in the ear gets old really quick, especially when its something you don't care about whatsoever for ten minutes straight. I'm not gonna point any fingers specifically (this time), but the offenders probably Know Who They Are. In a matchmade game its even worse, as there's no chance to strategize.

Tonight someone asked why EvadeEvadeEvade and The Beekeepers don't merge. This issue would be one of the major stumbling blocks in my way of being in favor of it. It's not the only reason, but its a big one. When I end up quitting for the night (and I'm not the only one) early rather than sticking around solely because of the annoying chatter, its getting to be a big problem.

For example, there is no need to announce and brag about every double kill in a heavily populated, small arena oddball game. We all know you're getting them every 3 seconds. We are too. Or at the very least, please use local speak instead of the team speak button.

I agree with pretty much anything ... I already complained in game and here on the forums ... I already have some problems to be heard, due to language barrier, this just makes it worse for me ...

The thing is missing is some common sense. Everybody wants to relax and have some fun playing. Everybody talks about random stuff once in a while, it's just that some are more reasonable than others ...

The thing about the clan is that E3 is not a real organized clan (ok, more like not organized at all! Laughing ) and that's how we like it. It's not like the "leaders" of E3 planned to steal members from other clans or anything like that. Funny thing is that our members don't think much about the clan itself while I keep hearing people from the other clans thinking E3 members like the "cool" factor for being in an "alternative" clan. It couldn't be further from the truth, at least for me ... To finish, I don't see a need to fix what's not broken.

Ok, let me go a bit off-topic here.

Since we talked about what kind of Halo2 player we are, I want to post a famous test here among mmorpg player, called Bartle Test. I have no idea if people here are familiar with this test or not. It's a test to determine what kind of player you are, ranging from Socializer, Explorer, Achiever and Killer.

Now, the questions are tailored towards MUD's and mmorpg's and some questions are totally unrelated to Halo2 (that's why it off-topic!). But I think most people here have played RPG's and are part of a game community, being ILB, ARG's Halo2 or any other. So, people can respond to them even though they never played a MUD or MMORPG before. I'm just curious to see what kind of players we have here. Feel free to take the test here and post your results if you want.

Considering halo2 is a very competitive FPS game, which main goal is to kill enemies and/or achieve objectives, you'd think most people here would be Killers, which I believe is the case for the average Halo2 player. But, I think we'll have something very different here, that's why I'm curious!

My results are:

I'm a SEA.
Socializer 60%
Explorer 60%
Achiever 40%
Killer 40%

My results are:
EKA. 1% of respondents so far fall into that type.
Explorer 60%
Killer 53%
Achiever 46%
Socializer 40%
Note: I should state that the test was taken from the standpoint of H2 and not from that of a MUD or MMORPG. My results for that would be much different.

Vash, we all know that you are a good player (as we can see by your rank in our friends list) and I think we would all appreciate it if you could become more of a team communicator rather than a team communicator PROHIBITOR. I'm not going to beat a dead horse, so I'll just leave it at that.

Your type is: ASK. 3% of respondents so far fall into that type.

Your answers were split as follows:
Achiever 60%
Socializer 46%
Killer 46%
Explorer 46%

Meh, it doesn't even add up to 200%. Did I mention I that frequently test out as nearly even on all scales on personality tests?

AAaaaaaaaaaaaaa, Vash, it's not good to slag on someone else's posting style when your signature is longer than most of your posts.

I'm just sayin'.

I too took the test from the perspective of Halo 2, not MUDs, as much as possible:

Your type is: SEA. 11% of respondents so far fall into that type.

Socializer 80%
Explorer 66%
Achiever 33%
Killer 20%

It's pretty accurate. I'd rather lose a game played with good friends than dominate strangers.
