TGIF #35 will run on Friday the 12th of June and party leaders will start their parties at the appropriate time (check individual schedules for more information). If a party is un-joinable, that means it is full, therefore you do NOT need to send invites or messages to the leader asking to get in. It will not work! We all hope you have a great TGIF - play nice and have fun.
Please note that we have cleared out the Gamertags so if you have been on them in the past you will have to resend a Friend Request
You easily sign up by just stating your GamerTag.
You send a friend request to any ONE of the TGIF gamertags over x-box live, FH TGIF 1, TGIF IV, or TGIF V.
In the host's motto/bio it will say what type of maps they're playing, and how many players are admitted.
Join these parties according to what playstyle you prefer.
Get tired of a party and want a change of pace? Leave and join another! All parties will be set to Open, so change parties as you please.
Want to play Rocket Race for a few hours? Go ahead! Then when you get bored of it jump ship and join another party for a different style of play!
If you need help with time zones then please check out this thread.
Insane54's Awesome TGIF of Awesomeness #35!
Host's Gamertag: Insane54
Insane returns to the TGIF arena with more games, more fun, more...well, awesomeness. My party is mainly for fun, lots of minigames and casual games, with a sprinkle of some fun competitive maps. If your a new guy who wants to check out the maps ForgeHub has to offer or if your an experienced veteran, American or foreign, you're more than welcome in my party.
Live Stream: Watch from my perspective live at game time!
Start Time: Games start at about 5:30pm EST, until 8:00pm EST, with a possible afterparty. Not all games might be played/different order/different times, whatever. If you want to be sure you get in, don't send me a XBL Friend Request, send me a courteous and grammatically correct message. I will probably invite you before it starts if you sound mature. People who send a decently nice message will get invited before the games start, and will thus be guaranteed a spot if you're online. Feel free to send these messages whenever you want, from the time this is posted until after my TGIF. I may be having one or two of my friends playing too, so if your lucky you may get a bunch of games in which you can get some super epic screenshots.
My gamertag is Insane54. Remember, no friend requests - messages only!
Requirements: Mic, Legendary Map Pack, good connection, no guests. I'm removing the age limit, but you still have to be mature. Anyone without these specifications will be booted by the mighty flaming boot of Insanity.

Duck Hunt
Eight Emerald Legs

iRaynne's Clear Sky on Forge Day TGIF
Host's Gamertag: iRaynne
Start Time: [4:30 PM EST]
End Time: [~6:00 PM EST]
Rules:
Procedure
You need to have signed up for this TGIF in a comment below. Minor exceptions will be excused if we have a low quantity of people.
Send me a game message (text or voice) when you want to join the party so that I can easily give you an invite. If you're on a TGIF gamertag, I'll invite you through that medium. No friend requests please.
Rules
My only rule that I'll truly enforce is to be cool and mature. Any acts of being annoying, and you get that Raynnin Banhammer of Boots.
Have a mic plugged in at all times.
No guests please.
Follow all honor rules. I'll explain any honor rules (if applicable) before each game.
Schedule:
We'll generally start off with some casual maps such as:
Tremors
Tremor Blast
Duck Hunt
Cat N' Mouse
After about forty-five minutes, we'll get into some more in-depth casual games:
Clue
Rocket Race
Hobo Heights
After another thirty minutes, it's time to get a bit more competitive. I'll probably just download some maps from the competitive maps section that look appealing to me. This is the part where you get to bring in some of your own maps as well. Feel free to do so.
In the last half hour, it's all MLG. There will be an afterparty that will probably last another hour or so of straight up MLG maps and gametypes. All standard maps and MLG gametypes will be considered, as well as the following forged ones:
MLG Requiem by Insane54
MLG Encephal by Transactionzero
MLG Archaic by HezbollaHector
Greetings From Europa
Host's Gamertag: Shock Theta
Start Time: 9:00pm GMT
End Time: 1:00am GMT
Rules:
If you arrive with a huge group of friends who didn't FR a TGIF tag, you will be booted.
If your voice chat irritates myself or others, you will be booted.
If you disregard fair play, honour rules or otherwise, you will be booted.
If you verbally abuse other members of the party you will be made a mockery of, then you will be booted.
If you constantly request to play your own maps, you will be booted.
If you whine or moan in any way, or otherwise behave in the manner of a child or spoilt brat, you will be booted.
If you lag the party, I'm afraid you will be booted.
Mythic DLC required.
Although not a hard and fast rule, please try to leave some constructive feedback in the forums on the maps we play together! Give a little back to the map authors who provide us with fun maps to play on, eh?
Near the end of the session, I will ask around to see if anyone has any maps they'd like testing. If you have a map nearing completion, feel free to drop in on my party to get some feedback. First come first served. Don't expect to enter the party and immediately be allowed to test out your map.
