So here I am fellow Dtoiders to story-tell the adventures of our dearest heroes in the throes of the cold, yet intense night that is Friday Night Fights.
The beginning was a bit awkward and surprising. Instead of the flood gates of people I received not eight days ago for the last FNF, this time it was more of a trickle.
Well, FNF was about an hour or less into the night when I was then joined by Salman and Zserv (They were hosting the Halo 3 w/ new maps). Apparently not enough were on or issues started to appear not of their control. I was happy to have their company as now we started really getting into doing what FNF was made for... awesomeness.
After a couple of rounds Salman and Zserv (And others as well) convinced Distrato (Heretic here, and someone I had not recognized by his GT, Bleach 2, to purchase the new Halo 3 maps. Bleach 2 turns out to be Madninja here on Dtoid, awesome because now we had a full group of people who don't suck.
We played a couple of custom rounds using the new maps and all I can say is why I didn't play these maps when I first got them is beyond me. These maps were a lot of fun... mainly because I like big maps and Forging new ones will be a lot of fun as well. I hope to make at least one as successful as "Sand Trap Hell" that I made a little bit ago.
I then switched our group over to Matchmaking with the new maps only... again it was a lot of fun. We owned... got owned... and made fun of each other. Playing with these people (Dtoiders) make me appreciate my relationship with this website. I had a lot of fun and thanked my lucky stars that I didn't have to deal with nearly as much whiny bullshit I did while alone in the matchmaking lobby.
Mentionables:
- Golden Donut is one of the best people to have around for FNF. He is the embodiment of a good player for online play. When he speaks, it's always funny/informative, not annoying banter that would have others question their social status in this world. He's good, but won't rub it in your face unless you piss him off, which is hard to do.. if possible. I am not that great of a player, but he backed me and vice versa during the matches.
These traits are shared with the other members in the group. When we were losing in some of the matches you didn't hear someone insult another for poor play, you heard a joke being cracked on the guy and laughter from the rest. Great example of this: During one match w/o the new maps three of us were together for a BTB. One of us (Forget who) was shot dead and the other (Salman) started humping his face. I laughed so hard my character stood up and got his head blown off. More laughter.
- We had little to no lag during play, awesome.
- XDistratoX, Salman, Zserv, owned during the custom matches we had between ourselves. In one game Salman killed me three times in a row... granted this could be because I am retarded and actually trying to exact vengeance. I think I got humped in the face for my troubles.
- Wardrox is a champ for playing with us as long as he did. Being in England, and having a due date hours away, he still managed to coherently kill us.
- Tentacle porn was brought up when I announced the purchase of my R4 unit. Seriously... how could you not love these people?
I hope to see you guys for the next FNF. Many of you will be doing wholesome things like being with family, preparing to get super smashed for New Year's, and making resolutions you won't keep.. heck I might even be one of those people... but none the less Happy Holidays for those that can't show up, and see you next time for those that will!
What did you think Dtoiders??

FNF was pretty awesome this friday. I can't wait for BTB ranked to come out so we can finally show our ownage to the masses.
And thanks for the good PR. :o
