Weekend of Win!


Welcome to XForgery's second official "WoW," or "Weekend of Win!".
(Yes, we are taking suggestions for a better name)


What is WoW?
Now, I'm sure you're all wondering about what this is exactly.

It is just a group of dedicated hosts, ranging from 3-4 people based on the weekend, that host customs and the like.


Who hosts WoW?
Now, this week there are 3 hosts, Null, Holly, and Defiance.

We are allowing others to be dedicated hosts as well, the only specification is that you must be on the A Forgery A friends list. So, if you wish to be a dedicated host, just ask.

We'll have certain priority in who hosts, such as people on the Review Team who may need to do testing, so don't feel bad if you don't get on the list, we still <3 you.


How do I join?
The best part about this WoW is that you don't need to sign up! That's right, no need to sign up! This is because the hosts are dedicated. If you see them online, just join them.

However, you may be online when the hosts are offline; if so, just make your own game and invite others from the A Forgery A friends list. Simple as that.


What will we play?
Now, onto some basic maps we'll be playing. All the hosts will be playing different maps, and it will really vary by Host and Day/Time, but they'll try to play the Features Nominations and those from the Top 5 vote, some Community Favorites, and many others!

Now, if you wish to be a host, you might want to download those maps in preparation, which you can find at these links: Feature Top 5 (http://www.xforgery.com/forum/showthread.php?p=23373#post23373); Featured Maps (http://www.xforgery.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=19). All right, go ahead and download them.

You are also allowed to request Party Leader in order to test your maps, because that is what this is all about! So, if you need a map/gametype tested, stop in and we'll help you out.

Anything else I need to know?
All right, now to tell you what days and around what times the hosts will be playing.

Null and Holly will be playing all weekend as well; however, they'll most likely be playing Team Melee, since Holly just loves it.

Dylan will also be playing. He'll be available a decent amount of time during all of these three days.

PsychoBucket is now a dedicated host as well! He will be playing for a few hours each day!

April 17th is the last day of classes for me. So if I manage to make it to this, I will either be very drunk or very hungover.

Sweet! Just in time to test out my Stickball Map Pack. I should finish my final map in the pack by tomorrow, so this is great for me! The only thing that sucks is that I work Friday and Saturday...so I hope everyone is still online on Sunday. *Crosses Fingers*

lol on the copy paste... anyways, WoW happens every weekend, cuz all it is is just organized customs around the community. And Rethal anyone can be a host... remember that if you get invited by someone over the weekend and you are on the A Forgery A gamertag then it is probably someone trying to host a WoW session... join away and don't be afraid to make friends...

Sadly I won't be here, I am going on vacation and won't be back til next weekend. So next weekend I will be hosting :). And you can expect loads of fun next week... don't be afraid to host, but if you invite someone and they invite you back, that means they probably already have a game going... just get together and be all XFish... lolz...

Enjoy your weekend peeps...

I'll be on a little, but I won't want to be a host again, as I am working on a map that I really want to be finished.

Just send A Forgery A a friend request on LIVE. Should be as simple as that...unless of course, it is all full. I just added it to my friends list the other day though so unless I was number 100, try that.

You can do that in party. If you have a map that you want to test or play, just inform the leader.

So whomever is a dedicated host, how long are yo guys going to be playing? I get off work at 11 so I won't even be on until like 11:45-12 midnight...I guess I will send invites to everyone on A Forgery A's friend's list if all else fails...

It just depends upon the host and the night really. I really don't have a schedule planned at this time for my party, but I know Defiance plans on playing every day although I'm unsure if he has any times planned.

Again, like you said, if you get online late and none of the dedicated hosts are on, feel free to start your own party and invite anybody on the Forgery Friend List.

No just this weekend. I wanted to have somewhere I could download a lot of customs to. I might go out and buy extra time for it just beause I can't fit anything on my normal account.
