110:51 PM] Backup: The hell is this?
2[10:52 PM] Backup: Damn. That's pretty cool.
3[10:52 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: Can do either MCC or 5. There are enough flood/spooky maps in MCC (backwash, sandbox, [spoiler]abandon[/spoiler], etc) that we can use that but 5 also allows us to modify any map to be spooky.
4[10:52 PM] Sigmund Freud: We'll do both
5[10:53 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: veto
6[10:53 PM] Backup: >he thinks people have the patience to switch between two games
7[10:53 PM] wizard: If we're going for pure spook factor I have to say 5 probably has the best maps
8[10:53 PM] Backup: :smile:
9[10:53 PM] wizard: With forge and all
10[10:53 PM] Sigmund Freud: 5 is probably the best for it, yeah
11[10:54 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: I don't care but I do think it should be entirely one or the other
12[10:55 PM] Sigmund Freud: Go with 5 then
13[10:56 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: @everyone Aye or Nay on Halo 5 for Halloween Fest?
14Sigmund is aye
15I'm abstaining
16[10:57 PM] Backup: I'll go with 5, but only because it means I'm more likely to get people willing to carry on with multiplayer after and grind out the targetmaster skins. :joy:
17[10:57 PM] Backup: (please kill me and free me)
18[10:58 PM] Neirn: Either is fine
19[10:58 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: 2 ayes
202 abstains
210 nays so far
22[10:59 PM] Grim: Aye
23[10:59 PM] wizard: Reluctant aye
24[10:59 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: wow I'm surprised
25[10:59 PM] Grim: Wiz is right, 5 has the best forge for spooks
26[11:00 PM] Grim: Though that infection map on sandbox is pretty great
27[11:01 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: Ok that's a majority then Motion closed.
28[11:01 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: >fucking gaylo 5
29we were supposed to be free of this
30[11:01 PM] Grim: And backup is also right, the likelihood of people switching games is very low
31[11:02 PM] Backup: You're just giving people a chance/excuse to drop out with a game switch.
32[11:03 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: We actually got lucky even yesterday with switching. Not everyone had halo 4 installed
33[11:05 PM] Backup: As a side note, I know it's not something that's easy to manage, but someone really needs to find a way to cut down on time spent in lobbies for halofests.
34[11:06 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: Noted
35We'll have all game modes and maps preset
36[11:06 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: We should probably have a deadline for that
37[11:07 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: Although most of our time lost yesterday was still due to people crashing and having to restart/taking breaks
38[11:07 PM] Backup: I know we don't have many brits but honestly when I'm staying up this late to participate I'd rather not have to sit in lobbies for as long as last night.
39[11:07 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: I'm surprised you did
40[11:07 PM] Backup: And yeah, few people did have crashes I suppose.
41[11:08 PM] Backup: Nothing you can do about that.
42[11:13 PM] Grim: Were the game types not preset?
43[11:21 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: They were but nobody could access them
44
45[11:22 PM] Sweaty: next time we do mcc then we need to make sure we get H2C and 4 in
46[11:22 PM] Sweaty: Regicide or Dominion
47[11:22 PM] Sweaty: or both
48[11:22 PM] Sweaty: both are fun
49[11:23 PM] Grim: Regicide would be great
50[11:23 PM] Grim: Can you do that with teams?
51[11:23 PM] wizard: I wish we could do warzone modes in Halofest. That would be memetastic
52[11:24 PM] Sweaty: ye that's the main difference between it and juggernaut
53[11:24 PM] Neirn: We can do warzone modes
54[11:24 PM] Sweaty: I remember playing it in H4 BTB
55[11:24 PM] Neirn: Not on warzone maps tho
56[11:24 PM] Grim: lmao imagine making up a ruleset for killing an actual team captain counting as more points
57[11:24 PM] Grim: Hilarious
58[11:24 PM] Neirn: I remember playing a WZ mode on customs
59[11:24 PM] Neirn: On Mercy
60[11:24 PM] Neirn: It was 1K points to win still
61[11:24 PM] wizard: We technically can do warzone maps but only 4v4
62[11:25 PM] Neirn: With no end game option for the host
63[11:25 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: Team Regicide is an already prebuilt game type
64You can play Warzone maps in custom games but only with like a max of 6 people or something
65[11:25 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: oh ok or 8 ppl
66[11:25 PM] Neirn: The reason it's only 8 is because the Forge lobby only supports 8 players
67[11:25 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: ah
68[11:26 PM] Neirn: Idk if you could get more people with Join in Progress
69[11:26 PM] wizard: Nope
70[11:26 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: We tried to do it in the first fest and couldn't get 16 people in it and that's why we did the swatnums on Haven instead
71[11:26 PM] Neirn: I don't remember us testing jip
72[11:27 PM] wizard: Hey maybe we can play /hg/ island in Halofest :laughing:
73[11:27 PM] Sweaty: but what would we play there
74[11:27 PM] Sweaty: what is even there
75[11:27 PM] wizard: Nothing . We never finished the BTB version
76[11:28 PM] THE ONE BIG RED:
77
78[11:29 PM] Backup: I don't know if any games have the capability to set it up, but I like the idea of team captain kills being the goal of a mode.
79[11:29 PM] wizard: I was personally hoping to never play halo 5 again but I'll see what I can do with it
80[11:29 PM] Backup: Maybe do elimination like on epitaph but agree before the match that if a team captain dies, their team loses the round.
81[11:29 PM] Backup: And their team must kill themselves.
82[11:29 PM] wizard: Isn't MVP a mode?
83[11:29 PM] Neirn: We can't choose who is MVP
84[11:30 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: We could maybe edit breakout to work that way, where instead of having a flag in the middle you're trying to kill the captain
85[11:30 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: Could be memey
86[11:30 PM] Backup: Would be very tacticool.
87[11:30 PM] Backup: Have to decide how much of your team to dedicate to captain protection.
88[11:30 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: I can just hear the screams now
89[11:30 PM] Backup: And send your best killers to take out the enemy captain.
90[11:31 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: "WHAT WERE YOU DOING GOING OVER THERE? YOU FUCKING INCEL RETARD OF A CAPTAIN!"
91[11:32 PM] Backup: >dive in front of a sniper shot to try and save your captain
92[11:32 PM] Backup: >it kills you both
93[11:32 PM] Backup: someone fund it, I want to play a mode like that
94[11:33 PM] wizard: I wonder if it's even possible
95[11:33 PM] wizard: I don't think anybody in /hg/ knows how to script gametypes
96[11:33 PM] Neirn: Or just use honor rules
97[11:34 PM] Backup: Yeah, just agree to kys if your captain falls.
98[11:34 PM] Backup: Also did anyone upload red team from last night yet?
99[11:35 PM] wizard: Well. I'm imagining some sort of trait zone that the captain would stay in. And if the captain died, it would open a gate to a flag or something
100[11:35 PM] Backup: I want to see how loud me falling over and smashing my head on the table was.
101[11:35 PM] THE ONE BIG RED: @wizard I'm sure VIP breakout probably already exists. The trouble will probably be assigning VIP to a specific person
102[12:10 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: oh no
103[12:10 AM] Backup: :thinking:
104[12:12 AM] wizard: What's oh no
105[12:13 AM] Grim: Epic bro
106[12:20 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: bro you too bro
107[12:30 AM] canonymous: wait
108[12:30 AM] canonymous: so is this a play session or a halo fest
109[12:30 AM] canonymous: @THE ONE BIG RED
110[12:30 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: Guards, Seize this man
111[12:31 AM] canonymous: because
112[12:31 AM] canonymous: because
113[12:31 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: seize him!
114[12:31 AM] canonymous: within the last month or so
115[12:31 AM] canonymous: i spent some time forging already
116[12:31 AM] canonymous: on 5
117[12:31 AM] canonymous: editing maps
118[12:31 AM] canonymous: creating spooky variants of existing ones
119[12:31 AM] canonymous: so like Cold Storage now has the flood broken thru the glass
120[12:31 AM] canonymous: so theres our 1v1 arena for the month
121[12:32 AM] Neirn: 2spooky
122[12:32 AM] canonymous: ive extended Halo 4's Abandoned a bit to accommodate a BTB setting
123[12:33 AM] canonymous: still altering Relic and Ragnarok
124[12:33 AM] canonymous: to add tombstones
125[12:33 AM] canonymous: and other shit
126[12:33 AM] canonymous: dead trees
127[12:33 AM] canonymous: pumpkins
128[12:39 AM] Sweaty: next mccfest we need to fo protect the president on halo 3
129[12:39 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: We already by a majority voted Halo 5 as the next fest so you're good
130[12:39 AM] Sweaty: that sandbox or foundry map
131[12:40 AM] canonymous: again
132[12:40 AM] canonymous: is it a play session or fest?
133[12:40 AM] canonymous: haloween i mean
134[12:40 AM] canonymous: Fest just seems too soon tbh
135[12:40 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: I mean it's 16 guys playing Halo does it really matter what we call it?
136[12:41 AM] canonymous: so play session then...
137[12:41 AM] canonymous: still gonna have to do green vs orange
138[12:41 AM] canonymous: ghoulies vs pumpkins
139[12:42 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: but yeah we're calling it halofest :wink:
140[12:43 AM] canonymous: :Zoomedthink:
141[12:43 AM] canonymous: or we could create a spin off
142[12:43 AM] canonymous: Spookyfest
143[12:43 AM] canonymous: I
144[12:43 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: U?
145[12:43 AM] canonymous: 4 U
146[12:44 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: :scream:
147[12:44 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: I get if you think it's too soon but we gotta take advantage of this holiday.
148[12:44 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: Too much potential to let go by
149[12:45 AM] Backup: If I miss it because it clashes with trick or treating, I'm going to be upset.
150[12:47 AM] canonymous: yea, we definitely have to do something for halloween
151[12:47 AM] canonymous: ive already put effort into some maps
152[12:48 AM] canonymous: its just a Halo Fest would be too soon tbh
153[12:49 AM] Grim: Why cant it just be the /hg/ HaloWeen
154[12:49 AM] canonymous: yea
155[12:49 AM] canonymous: can be that
156[12:49 AM] canonymous: /hg/ Haloween, /hg/ween
157[12:50 AM] Grim: /hg/ween isnt very good
158[12:50 AM] wizard: Haloweenfest
159[12:50 AM] canonymous: Spookyfest
160[12:50 AM] Backup: >/hg/ween
161[12:50 AM] Backup: I vote for this
162[12:50 AM] Backup: :joy:
163[12:50 AM] wizard: Haychgeeween
164[12:50 AM] Grim: The Annual /hg/ Haloweenfest 6: The returnening
165[12:51 AM] wizard: I don't see any reason for it to not be a Halofest anyways
166[12:51 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: I dont see any reason there cant be one once a month
167[12:51 AM] Backup: Because spooky modes aren't necessarily red vs blue team based, like infection.
168[12:51 AM] Backup: Halofest format limits the spooktential of a haloween event
169[12:51 AM] wizard: Sure be we can do something like orange VS green on spooky maps
170[12:52 AM] canonymous: i feel it lessens the significance of HFs
171[12:52 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: We can have an intermission game mode where everybody plays s ok me neat infection
172[12:52 AM] canonymous: kinda like a CoD every year
173[12:52 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: It settles down the sweatyness and gives people a break
174[12:52 AM] canonymous: a Halo Fest every month....
175[12:52 AM] canonymous: cant believe it Red, ur becoming activision
176[12:52 AM] Grim: It shouldnt be a fest
177[12:52 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: lies and slander
178[12:52 AM] wizard: A month is a long time
179[12:53 AM] canonymous: next ur gonna tell me that buy REQs too
180[12:53 AM] Backup: :GWjojoKillMe:  is it gonna come down to a vote if it's a halofest or not?
181[12:53 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: keep in mind it can use different games different times. It would stay fresh.
182[12:53 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: Like we still need another reach fest
183[12:53 AM] canonymous: First annual /hg/ween Fest
184[12:53 AM] canonymous: starting this year
185[12:53 AM] canonymous: next year will be /hg/ween Fest 2
186[12:53 AM] canonymous: there, doesnt lessen the significance of HFs
187[12:53 AM] Grim: https://gfycat.com/gifs/detail/everybravealaskajingle
188[12:54 AM] canonymous: while still being a fest in a way
189[12:54 AM] wizard: Well I mean halofest isn't some Olympics tier event. What do you mean by lessining significance
190[12:54 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: 1st off I'm not sold on "/hg/ween"
191[12:54 AM] Backup:
192
193[12:54 AM] Grim: Haloween should just be for fun
194[12:54 AM] Grim: I feel like fests are honestly more sweaty
195[12:54 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: the only fun I know comes from killing my friends
196[12:54 AM] wizard: Halofests are for fun
197[12:54 AM] canonymous: lel
198[12:54 AM] Grim: kill ur frenz xD
199[12:55 AM] canonymous: we'll still be playing the infection maps and stuff
200[12:55 AM] canonymous: I hosted an ass load last year
201[12:55 AM] canonymous: was a good time
202[12:55 AM] Grim: I mean yeah i have fun but its a DIFFERENT fun
203[12:55 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: I say do both. Have regular 6 events and then in the middle 3 zombie maps
204[12:56 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: if we really speed up the in between time as backup wants we should be able to get more games in anyway
205[12:57 AM] wizard: Ok so how about it's not an "official sweaty" Halofest but it's the same in structure does that solve the issue
206[12:57 AM] canonymous: sure
207[12:57 AM] canonymous: dont call it a Halo Fest tho
208[12:57 AM] Backup: :GWjojoKingCrimsonAngry:  You fricken fricks are making this way more fricken complicated than it needs to be. just fricken keep it as a non-halofest holiday event. Sheesh.
209[12:57 AM] wizard: Wew alrighty
210[12:57 AM] canonymous: :JalterSip:
211[12:57 AM] wizard: I didn't realize the name HaloFest carried such reverence
212[12:58 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: it has to be called halofest
213you can even make it the subtitle
214you dont even have to have it officially on the box like with the "episode 8" on the last jedi
215[12:58 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: this is a crucial issue with the voters
216[12:58 AM] canonymous: so this will be Halo Fest 9 then?
217[12:58 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: Only technically
218[12:58 AM] wizard: I feel like this argument is going in circles. Why don't we all agree it's an event that's 99% similar to Halofest and the maps are spooky themed
219[12:59 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: for advertising purposes you can just put hgweenfest
220[12:59 AM] Backup: You're going to ruin it. You're going to take a fun holiday themed event and cause CHAOS by making it a competition with the halofest format.
221
222[12:59 AM] Backup: WHEN WILL YOU LEARN
223[12:59 AM] Grim: This
224[12:59 AM] canonymous: lol
225[12:59 AM] Backup: THAT YOUR ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES
226[12:59 AM] Grim: You can advertise it like a big event to get people interested but not like a fest
227[1:00 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: If the event it's a failure I will resign from being chairman of this comittee
228[1:00 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: I will put that at risk
229[1:00 AM] Backup: You're already toeing the line by it being on Halo 5. This will push it over the edge.
230[1:00 AM] canonymous: :eyes:
231[1:00 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: I didn't vote for Halo 5
232[1:00 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: I abstained
233[1:00 AM] canonymous: i thought last years Halloween fest was fine
234[1:01 AM] wizard: I don't see what the problem is with it being a Halofest though. We don't have to ration them out
235[1:01 AM] Backup: WHATEVER. DO WHAT YOU WANT.
236
237[1:01 AM] Backup: I'm FRICKEN DONE
238[1:01 AM] canonymous: but we also dont have to call every big play session a fest either tho
239[1:01 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: of course
240[1:01 AM] Grim: A fest is very different to a holiday event fam
241[1:02 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: what about a FESTive holiday event?
242[1:02 AM] Grim: lmao
243[1:02 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: checkmate
244[1:02 AM] wizard: This is some complicated buerocracy shit
245[1:02 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: It's just politics wizard
246[1:02 AM] Backup: Who the fuck even suggested it should be a halofest. We need to kill them.
247[1:03 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: If you dont think you can handle it you can go the fuck back to Alberta
248[1:03 AM] wizard: Article 5 section 4 of the official /hg/ code states that no Halofest shall fall on the day of a holiday
249[1:03 AM] Backup: Who started this fire!
250[1:03 AM] wizard: Make a strawpoll and post it in the thread
251[1:03 AM] wizard: If they want politics we give it
252[1:03 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: @wizard It doesn't have to be ON halloween
253[1:04 AM] canonymous: last /hg/ween was a day before, iirc
254[1:04 AM] Backup: >Red trying to bypass Article 5 section 4 with a loophole.
255[1:04 AM] Backup: Corruption.
256[1:04 AM] Backup: Treason.
257[1:04 AM] wizard: Impeach
258[1:04 AM] canonymous: @Sigmund Freud impeach this man
259[1:05 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: >known Tobinia rebellion fighter
260>calling ME a traitor
261[1:05 AM] Backup: You LITERALLY just admitted to wanting to abuse a technical loophole to bypass Article 5 section 4 of the official /hg/ code.
262[1:05 AM] Backup: I even screencapped it.
263[1:06 AM] canonymous: the official /hg/ code, written and signed by the founding /hg/ fathers...
264[1:07 AM] Grim: Rest in peace koolaid
265[1:08 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: The people of /hg/ have my back. They know my record. And furthermore you are in no position to go to War with Red & Friends when your people are already in a trade war with the official discord. It would be political suicide!
266[1:08 AM] Backup: I have audio recordings from last night where you admit that you would leave Halo General to join my Tobinia spartan company because you still need the achillus body.
267[1:09 AM] Backup: Don't test me, Tobinia has been through hard times, and my resolve has been strengthened time and time again by these trials.
268[1:09 AM] Backup: I'll take these screencaps and audio recordings to the thread if I have to.
269[1:09 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: You are playing with fire Backup
270[1:10 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: And your trials can't prepare you for the fires of hell :sunglasses:
271[1:10 AM] Backup: If I destroy myself, I'll be damn sure to take you with me.
272[1:10 AM] canonymous: hg gate

274Straw Poll
275What should the Halloween /hg/ event be
276Vote Now! [Actual Halofest with a Halloween theme] ["just for fun" Halofest-like event with a Halloween theme]
277
278[1:10 AM] Backup: Also, we never came to a conclusion. So we have only one real option.
279
280[1:12 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: no option for the combo-option
281[1:12 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: THIS IS A CIRCUS
282[1:12 AM] wizard: What combo option
283[1:13 AM] canonymous: the meme where we switch between games mid fest
284[1:13 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: 3 halofest events, 3 infection events themed for Halloween, and 3 more halofest events
285[1:13 AM] wizard: I thought that's what a "Halofest-like" event would be
286[1:13 AM] canonymous: was gonna say, possibly falls under Halofest like
287[1:14 AM] Backup: >no "Allow Red to bypass the /hg/ code with a technical loophole that means he can host a halofest near Halloween but not on it." option
288[1:14 AM] THE ONE BIG RED: Well clearly if I can't understand the difference, the average uneducated /hg/ anon qon't be able to.
289These results are not admissible as evidence
290[1:16 AM] wizard: Well. I guess. Plus we just had a Halofest last night so maybe it's too quick to be bringing it up to everyone
291[1:17 AM] Backup: Reminder from an envoy of Tobinia that every single comment in here is a comment that could and should have been made in the thread, and that right now this chat is starving the thread of hundreds of posts and community based content.
292[1:17 AM] Backup: Discord was a mistake. Burn it to the ground.
293[1:17 AM] wizard: Oh shit you're right :eyes: :sweat_drops:
294[1:17 AM] wizard: What are we thinking posting in a secret club instead of a public discussion open to all members of /hg/
295[1:18 AM] wizard: I regret everything!
296wizard left the group.Today at 1:18 AM
297[1:18 AM] Grim: THERE WILL BE ORDER IN THIS COUNCIL
