EVENT IDEA
First of all, I had this event idea and I wanna know what you guys thought about it. Pretty much we combine DoD:S and UFC Fight Nights. Weapon classes = weight classes, so you can have defending title holders in different classes and work your way up to fight for the title. Every person's fighting style is different, so each 1-v-1 battle would be unique. How it could be done:

Three 3-minute rounds. First round one guy is (randomly chosen) selected class. Other guy rotates through each other class in order upon each death. Go with a small-ish map (arena) so they can't hide from each other and no spawn-camping allowed. They flip roles for the next round. If one person dominates the other, that's the same as a Knockout. Otherwise the match goes to "judge's decision" (which could just be overall K:D scores).

We have so many characters that each night we could easily fit 4-5 "fights" into a one-hour event, or if we had enough people to admin it we could stretch it into a 2-3 hour event, people could come and go, and we could get like 15 "fights" (30 people) each week. This also leads to the possibility of bringing back old members who left eGO or went to other divisions, if they have a chance to actually prove they are the best ______.



FOOTBALL GAME
For those of you who had been reading my updates about the football team I coach, I haven't written anything for about a month. We had our first home game two weeks ago where I almost got stabbed. I was gonna share that story, but I would have to censor it a ton. I'll still do it if you guys are curious enough though, lol.

Anyways last night was our final game for the Championship. The other team (the defending champions) went up 20-0 right away in the first quarter. Everybody was freaking out wondering what was wrong with our team. After all, our defense gives up an average of just 18 points a game total. What they didn't know was that our headsets weren't working for ??? reason, so I couldn't communicate ANYTHING down to the field for our defense and neither could the offensive coaches to the offensive coaches on the field. Pretty much we were playing in the dark and freaking out.

The headsets randomly started working a few minutes into the second quarter. I was then able to scramble and tell the defense what all was going on and what adjustments we needed to make. To make a long story short, we got six turnovers, started kicking major butt not giving up anything, and won the game, 34-27.



I NEED HELP
This is going to sound completely ridiculous...but it's legit... Every year my family and friends ask what I want for Christmas. Why they don't just get me something and surprise me, I don't know, but I SUCK at figuring out what I want. I just can't do it. I am seriously incapable of coming up with something and saying, "Oh I would like this" for whatever reason. I am almost as bad thinking up things to get other people.

This year they all got together (it's a conspiracy) and set it straight with me--either I come up with stuff I want, or I am getting nothing. No money or gift cards or gifts from their own ideas. So far my list looks like this:
Help me come up with some ideas, cause I suck at this. I have until Thanksgiving to respond. If I end up getting nothing...oh well...who cares.
 
I like the event idea, as of right now Im the Unofficial Heavy Weight (MG) champion of the world, when I took the belt from Stormy.

Also what to get you for Christmas: Gifts of Compton. I will gladly accept gifts, no matter how small, Im just nice that way I guess.
 
I like the idea of that event it sounds like a lot of fun! Also congrats to you and your team for winning the Championship! And for your list I wish I could help you but I dont really have any ideas for you sorry.
 
I like the event, it sounds fun. Gratz on your championship!! For the Christmas you should get a jet airplane for your team so that you dont have to drive your team around in a truck. :thumbup:
 
hmm for christmas ask for the following:
1.Assortment of Arms(AK-47, M60, M4, MiniGun, 30-06,ect.)
2. 5 years worth of food rations
3 500 Gallons of water.
4 50000 Tons of Ammo for said assorted arms.
5 Zombie Survival Guide.
6 Chainsaw.
7 Chainsaw Gas and lots of it
8 All Movies made by the great and wonderfull George A. Romero
9 A bomb shelter 20 ft underground thats as big as a 4 acre house
10 Russian Grade Nukes
11 RPG's and ammo
12 C4
13 Grenades
14 Highest grade computer with all the latest everything. And Twelve 100 TB Hard drives, 20 gigs of RAM, the best processor known to man, and a Radeon HD 6999 Graphics card.
15 A phone
16 A friend (cough cough me) to help you out in said situation
17 Reinforcement to said bombshelter with 60 inch think steel-no Titanium walls with concrete slabs reinforced with rebar surrounding them.

With these 17 things, you will surely survive the upcoming Zombie Appocolypse. I will gladly join you in your quest to annialate the undead :P
 
So thanks to Chuck Norris and sonic....I can now ask for "a jet plane" and "some random guy I know online who goes by the name 'sonicx11212'" for Christmas. We're making progress already.

Could always do what I'll be doing this holiday season! Operation Christmas Child... (Google it).

Basically, instead of getting things myself, I'll be putting together random tidbits, putting them into shoeboxes, and sending them out to children who never get presents.

You know you want to! =)
 
Nice, C-WHiT. We do Operation Christmas Child too, but I never thought of asking for presents for that. I usually have the same problem as OP. I don't really want anything for myself, but feel guilty telling the family that.
 
ooooooooo

Random great stuff that I think everyone would like:

2) bionoculars

3) Magnet set (think geek or deal extreme (not sure which and in no mood to search) has this magnet ball set that is awesome

4). Gyroscope - these are awesome

5) a kitty (and if your asking for one ask for one for me too).

6) bouncy balls (hmmm, I think i'm channeling my childhood here).

7) Duct tape, a practical yet extremely useful gift (ha, take that inner child)

8) Music in any way shape or form (old casettes, ipod gift card whatever you want).

9) gloves (depending on your climate), winter is coming, oh god no!.

10. Homebaked goods, inexpensive and delicious, got a favorite aunt or sister or neice that's good at baking. Tell them to fire up the oven and make me a gift. Your tongue will thank you. You are also paying them a compliment. If you need brownie points, ask for brownies!

11. Live badgers for handpuppets (don't ask... just don't)

12. steam or game store gift card because if you are here you like games!

13. a pony (for the 12 year old girl in you).

That is my list after a 12 hour shift a work. You are welcome!
 
Serious Christmas List
1. Maybe a new gaming computer depending on how old yours is?
2. Maybe upgrading your computer?(pm me for help selecting new parts, even if you think yours is amazing, it can only get better, even with just a little bit of $ depending on what you already have.)
3. Check out some new games that came out on steam and ask for those. I don't know what all you have but a lot of people are playing PAYDAY the Heist/BF3/MW3. Or just check out some other games you might want.
4. Take said games and start a mega giveaway for DOD:S recruiting if you already have enough games and don't want anymore.
5. Any other tech gagdets? Huge Widescreen TV? New Phone? Ipod? Ipad?
