Well guys I gotta admit, being a new host isn't easy. However, this lobby was my first (somewhat) successful one. Only 3 people stayed dedicated to the end and got to play some of my sexy maps. They loved them all, and I loved them. It was only me and them, but I still enjoyed hosting, hopefully for my next TGIF, I could get some more people. Me and Tutui99 may be dual hosting next TGIF, I will sort that out with him. I still think he's a pretty damn good host who's made a name for himself here. More people are getting to at least somewhat know me at this point and that's pretty good. So well, to the recap, the lobby did reach the minimum two hours, though I hoped for a longer lobby. I eventually joined Tutui's party afterwards. The lobby started with some of my unreleased maps, which my small lobby seemed to like. We played my giant race map called "Unfazed", which ended with one of my players breaking the plan to finish the map at the same time! We were all mad, but we got over it. Next, we played some other more-known mini-games, like a game called 'Propulsion', which was very fun. Here's an action shot :)
One Sexy Evade. Indeed.
Later, we continued with more games, like a game called 'Rent-A-Hog', which follows the same concept as 'Rent-A-Car', but takes place in a different part of ForgeWorld, and has more traps and obstacles to it. It was very fun, and plays just as well as the original. Here's another action shot :DYou my friend, have been purely raped.
The last game I wish to point out is a little game called 'Bulldogs', which is supposedly a playground game the kids would play at school. I have to admit, this game was fun, even with only 3, and it seemed the main objective turned into defending the cones! Here's a shot of cone-man!Me, being the noob I am at posting photos, accidently made this pic my wallpaper... LOL. My family uses this computer xD Anyways, I somehow got this pic in theater, and it was just freaking epic.
Well that sums up my recap. I'm hoping to hopefully become a great host here at ForgeHub. I'm asking you guys give me a chance, I won't disappoint! If you guys actually read all of this, I applaud you :)Here are the links to the games we played :D

As I was begining to feel like a bit of a pro after my 3rd consecutive TGIF, I was brought abruptly down to earth by the fact that I had forgotten to save hardly any of the films recorded last friday night! However, I'll give you what I can for your viewing pleasure.
We started of the night with a smallish party and a bit of a warmup of FFA slayer on Purification followed by a couple of race maps and some FWOT (sorry Tutui it looked to fun to resist ;) ). While I held my own in the races, I was conclusively dominated by the pro skilz of KTLR and pinohkio in slayer and FWOT respectively. How anyone could be so accurate with every weapon is beyond me KTLR. Oh and a word of advice to anyone considering playing FWOT with pinohkio; don't, he can take your turret off everytime from across the map. Trust me, it's painful playing him.
After some of these fun bits and bobs, the party joined with sharp's and pinohkio's for some *coned followed by a map that was worth playing just for the reaction it evoked in sharpshooter. If only you could record voice chat....
Cool guys don't look at explosions
Sorry I'm late, Sat-Nav took me a crazy route....

Recap for Tutui's Canadian Thanksgiving party
Hey all, and thanks for another great TGIF! We had no problem keeping a full lobby going all evening. The party did start off a little slowly, but when psycho duck joined, he brought alot of fun with him, so thank you psycho!
The first map of the night was one that I was DYING to try out ever since I downloaded it. Im talking about CCS Silent barbarian by Juanez Sanchez. It is a near-perfect replica of a covenant cruiser, and the best part? its an invasion map. Here are some action shots:
Grav lift Dont work on vehicles :0
After this game, this one guy asked to have an infection map played. This was THE WORST game of infection ive ever played. we lost more than half the party, and then the tool decides to rebel and start his own party. So the party died down to like 4-5 people for a few games, and then I re-invited people, and along with these people came the REAL party! We played a few amazing infection maps, but when Psyco Duck joined, he requested FWOT. And Im not one to refuse requests ;)
The (planned) last game ended in a tie, so for the tiebreaker, we decided to use 16 wraiths instead of 16 scorpions. My team won, but just barely by 1 point XD
We also played a variety of race maps, but one stood out. We played a race game on Tutropolis, and NOBODY could figure out where they were supposed to go. LOL failure on my part for checkpoint placement...
But accually, the most memorable event happened AFTER the TGIF. I have to mention this, even though its not technically part of my lobby.
Affter the party, Me an Mocknizzle went into forge to mess around, to try and make that infinate vehicle machine Darth Human showed us. what happened was this:
This is me, who got LAUNCHED in my tank all the way accrros forgeworld. and the tank shot that just blew my turret of? MOCK. Damn You! You chalange my authority of "tank sniper" ;)
Well, that about sums it up. ;) Make sure to catch me next week for an all-night halloween Infection zombie mowdown, co-hosted with Kid Supreme!

OK guys lets discuss the events of last friday shall we?
Now last friday was an interesting TGIS. Initially, i had some issues getting people together. I even said to Loscocco that "once we get 6, we're good". As it turned out, once we got 6 I started up a game and everything went smooth.
A different approach was taken this time around with a game of BTB 1-Flag on Spire. Yes, I used one of the default maps. THe experience was surprisingly fun too, seeing as I despise BTB in matchmaking. Then I put on one of my personal favorite invasion maps - The Hushed Apprentice. Now per usual, we played some minigames that the kiddies get big boners for like:
- Plasma Rain
- Crash-up Derby
- Insane DK (Avalanche)And then, during the game of avalanche, a man by the name of Confused Flamingo had a crazy idea: 16 player FFA slayer on Spire. For shits and giggles, I put the game on.
Something insane went down on Spire...
I thought this was pretty hilarious..
The guy took a ride on another warthog in Crash-up derby
