Title: X-s Member Tourney
Post by: coldasice on April 20, 2007, 01:18:00 AM
I would like to organize a tournament for the gears of war players who frequent this website. If you are interested in joining please let me know. As for prizes I dont have anything in my hands yet but most likely GOW T-shirts for the winning team. There will not be an entry fee as that would make this illegal. So either pm me or hit me up on live. My gamertag is steetoburrito. Thanks for reading this.

Awesome. If people who want to join can start posting in here their Gamertag and the Gamertag of the others who wish to play with them. Teams of 4 as stated before would be great. If you have a friend who doesnt have his own 360/gamertag and wishes to play under your account that is fine.

Well, I'm hoping to get this thing going soon. I have only heard back from a few of you via pm who have posted in here. Hope to get some more messages in my inbox soon so we can get started. I suppose for those of you who might not have the same skill level as others this is a good practice time.

biggrin.gif my bad i guess, i could have sworn you had wrote an article on how you were never going to get xbox live gold.  must have been some one else but i know i read it, haha

I remember reading that too but I think it was maybe Chancer. Was one of the mods anyway.

Is this ever going to happen?  Mods have had teams together forever!

Post by: coldasice on June 10, 2007, 10:50:00 AM
Ok, sorry about the long wait everyone. I have been super busy with work lately. Now that we have teams together I can put together a bracket. We will play on the 16th of June. Noon Mountain Time.
Title: X-s Member Tourney
Post by: twistedsymphony on June 14, 2007, 01:54:00 PM
I can't make it... I'll be out of town

how about finding out when people are available, or at very least PMing everyone long enough in advance that we can all plan to be there.  dry.gif

if not PMs you could at least send XBL messages right through Xbox.com, you should have everyones gamertag anyway.

the only reason I even saw that you replied here was because I was checking this forum for something else and noticed you left a new reply... judging by the fact that no one else has replied I would suspect that no one else knows yet.


as for me having a gold account... I've been an xbox live member since the xbox 1 days  tongue.gif ... never had anything but gold.
Title: X-s Member Tourney
Post by: coldasice on June 15, 2007, 03:14:00 PM
Yeah good idea my friend. I will send everyone a message on XBL about the day we will play. I'm thinking the 30th

Edit: Only 250 chars allowed on xbox.com messages, lame-o. I will be telling everyone to check in here so teams can be finalized as many people do not have a team organized.
Title: X-s Member Tourney
Post by: coldasice on June 15, 2007, 03:43:00 PM
Ok here is the grand prize boys
IPB Image
Each member of the winning team will get 1 of these posters, they measure approximatly 2 feet wide and 3 feet tall. They will make a great addition to any gameing room.
