Friday night Ranked matches

I was just talking with Rarely honest (Borat) :rotfl: , and there is no way somebody can beat us.

We have to decide which map we are going to play and I will set it up to 20 rounds.

After that just custom maps, execution style, 6 rounds.

Can we all play together on a ranked match? With the latest patch I thought there was problems with doing that. If we can all play, great, and any map is fine by me.

Yes, together or against each other.I'm thinking about griddlock.

Let's make teams now ...balanced.
It's still 4vs 4 :(

any particular reason we're doing ranked? I thought ranked matches were a one-map deal ... Foamy and I haven't played the new maps yet ...

maybe we can do a few player matches to warm up (not that it'll help me any - I haven't played in a week :D )

just curious ...

No ranked matches unless you feel like you want to play one.
Sounds good ? :D

Playing tonight Rivas?

The cable guy, a real one ... not the one you were booting from the server :rotfl: just rewired from the house to the amplifier.
He's also a GoW player so he understands how important a good connection is. :thumb:

Hopefully that'll be the end of my packet loss and la..la..la..aagggg. :)

My son was sure :irate: playing last night when the lag hit.

It's not always the host, it depends who will join, in order to keep it going everything has to be in sync, and of course it isnt.
North americans dont have problems if person with strong connection is hosting the game, but if some European will join then we do have lag because it's trying to keep it in sync.Yesterday I was playing with some people from UK and I shot him into head and nothing happend to him because next ms I was dead.And I was standing behind him !
It's pointless playing in the morning because we are 8-9 hours behind them.And all of them are on Live :)
