Hurr hurr it's back with me
You don't seriously think I wouldn't do this again, would you?

My Xbox LIVE parties are to bring members of the Blockland Forum together to play games to bond and become better friends. The forum needs this as there are quite a few feuds between players these few years and I want to prevent these as much as possible.

As there are only 8 slots available in Xbox LIVE parties, the first 7 to post looking in, will be added. This is so it is fair and people can't say "Ogm u pikd him cuz hes ur frend"
First come first serve. No exceptions. Don't bitch about it if you don't join the one session. There will be more available.

Notice
My friends list is full. I will not delete somebody for you unless you are definitely coming to the party


The list

(2/8) Back up joiners-(0/7)
-Muzzles56 Cannot have a backup joiner HOST
-Sord213 Back up joiner-None
-None
-None
-None
-None
-None
-None

Permanent slots
Permanent slots are for people who are dedicated to the parties and contribute to the topic regularly
No matter what, you will always be added to the party list instantly
There are only 2 permanent slots available at all times. You can ask to have a permanent slot, but I will determine who gets them
People in permanent slots can drop out of the next party if they wish
You can be removed from a permanent slot permanently if you do not arrive at parties without informing me. It is possible to get them back
Permanent slots are shown in blue on the above list

The time
Because I forget to update this, just check the recent topic title to see the time of the party

How to join the party

Include:
  • Gamertag
  • What time suits you?
  • Who will be your back up joiner if you do not arrive?
  • What games would you like played?
Example:
  • Gamertag-Muzzles56
  • What time suits you-5PM GMT 6th July 2010
  • Who will be your back up joiner if you do not arrive-Badspot
  • What games would you like played-Borderlands

Back up joiners
The "Who will be your back up joiner if you do not arrive" part is so other people can have a chance at joining the party in case you do not arrive. When the list is full, people who aren't in may ask others who are in to be their back up joiner. Only 1 back up joiner is allowed per party member
How this works is that a non party member must ask somebody to be their back up joiner The person they ask MUST confirm this, otherwise, I wont update the OP saying so. If a party member wants to add a back up joiner, the back up joiner also MUST confirm this.

I have discovered that people don't seem to be joining as they do not have the games that are being held. To counter this, anybody can play whatever game they like. It is preferred to play with other users, however.

Required things
Headset-(See below)
Xbox LIVE gold-Hurr hurr

Headset issues
The main reason people don't join is because they don't have a headset. I have countered this
You now only need a headset if you are playing a different game than the rest of the party members

This is the original Xbox LIVE Blockland parties thing
Happy gaming!
If anybody can make a logo or something for this, it would be very useful. Thanks in advance.

Blockland Clan
I have decided to create a Blockland Xbox LIVE gaming clan. This clan will play all sorts of games together as a group and stuff. It's a great way to bond and have fun.

How to join
Basically, tell me if you have any of the games below. Tell me each and every one you have out of the list

-Borderlands
-CoD 4
-CoD WaW
-CoD MW2
-Halo 3
-Halo 3: ODST
-Left 4 Dead
-Left 4 Dead 2
-Rainbow six vegas 1
-Red Faction Guerilla
-Gears of War 2

I will then ask you to be online for a certain time for a tryout. The clan will have a maximum number of 8 members (Including me) and in some games, I will have to choose 3 other members as the maximum amount for some games is 4. This is determined by first come first serve.

Can you please try to get a headset?
Also, the time isnt 5PM GMT. That was an example.
Edit: I've edited the OP. Now you only need a headset if you're not playing with us. A hedset is needed if you're plahying a different game, as this is supposed to get to know Blockland users

I'd get a wireless one if I were you
They dont seem to break and the quality is excellent

Don't they have to be recharged or use batteries?

Recharged
They plug into your xbox via USB. Takes around 1 hour or so to charge but lasts ages

It sounds fun but I don't know if I would want to sign up because I'm not sure if I would remember. It would be cool if you had a set time like you do BlockLand gamers weekend or something and set it the same time each week like 4-8 or somethng and have a set game and if there's space you just join in. Because if it was like that you don't have to worry about times or not making it.

That's why we organise the time each time we hold it with all of the party members

    * Gamertag-Sord213
    * What time suits you-Almost any time. I'm CST -6 I believe.
    * Who will be your back up joiner if you do not arrive-*Name here*
    * What games would you like played-Seeing as I don't have most popular games; Castle Crashers, Lost Planet 1 & 2.

Edit: Cellfactor: PW a fun arcade game.
Edit again: I forgot Avatar, the multiplayer is very fun.
