Covert Gunman

The playdate that was originally planned for today is being postponed till Monday February 20th to better match the playdate description. However, if you would still like to get together to play some zombies today, I say go for it. Nothing wrong with some epic zombie slaying on a Saturday afternoon. Also, while the playdate for Monday states that it is a U.S. playdate only, if anyone else from around the world happens to be available at the time of the playdate, feel free to join in. :)

While I appreciate the donations, I can't actually view them. I will talk to carbon and confirm the donations. Once I get full access to the site, I will be sure to replace the donation button with one that links to my paypal account so that I can actually view future donations. Until that point, just be patient until I can confirm the donations. Once that's done, I will add those who donated to the Donor group. :)

I've put this idea on hold for the time being.

It's just an option that we have turned off here on the forums. It would just require and take up a lot of space after a while if we were to implement it.

Go up to the User Control Panel at the top of the page. On the left hand side there will be a box that says Options. Select the option that says Profile, and then once your there, select where it says Edit Signature in that same box. You'll then be brought to a page where you can edit the things you have in your signature. In order to put a picture there, you will need to get the link to the picture, and then put the link between the image tags. Here's an example from my own signature: [img=http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/436/75e0e478e53ec5eb1e6b4f7.png]

It's a board wide setting, and not something that can be set at the User level.

I am keen to believe that it was a true posting. Amazon France always tends to leak things early. I'm fairly certain they leaked MW3 last year as well.

I did add a button but then no one went on to buy any, so I took it down for the time being.

Ah right, I forgot to mention that. I thought about it earlier, but forgot about it. Anyway, I will only be able to ship within the US for the time being. I know we have many foreign users, but I just don't have the money to ship it out to you. :(

Alright, well then we will just start off with one that says "Revive Me Bro, I Haz Raygun". I haven't yet ordered the wristbands yet, so if you guys decide you want to change the design later on we could. Anyway, I've added a button in my original post where you can preorder the wristbands. :)

If I were to open it up to pre orders, would you all be cool with that? We would only do one design here to start off to see how things would go, but then later on we could expand to multiple designs. Since that is the case, which design would you all like to see first?

If you want to be specific, these are the actual Hex codes. I included the dweller hex code color to show that there is indeed a very small difference. Takeo: #AAAAAA Nikolai: #7A7A7A Dempsey: #4F4F4F Richtofen: #333333 Dweller: #222222

Shipping costs are already included in the $1.50 price tag. That is, as long as enough of the wristbands are bought. ;)

Here are some other ideas that were submitted to me via PM: Juggernog: Reach for Juggernog Tonight Quick Revive: You need a little revive Double tap rootbeer: You thirsty partner? Speedcola: Speed cola speeds up your life Stamin-up: Sounds like it's STAAAAmin up time Mule Kick: El Burro DeadShot: With the headshot power of dead shot Daiquiri. PHD Flopper: Slap your body to the floor, every body needs some more of your explosive lovin' Each wristband color would closely match the corresponding perk color, and they could also have the perk icons on the wristbands as well.

Yes, something like this:

Alright, question time. If I were to have a company make some Zombie themed wristbands, would you guys be interested in buying them? They would be a red color with "BRAAAAIINS" debossed on the front, and "Zombie Killer In All Of Us" debossed on the back. They would cost a $1.50 each, but they would be pretty cool, in my opinion. Also, if you guys have other ideas for possible wristbands, let me know here.

Don't forget that our first Playdate will be held this Saturday, January the 28th, at 12PM PST. If you are interested in playing, send me a message over Xbox Live to let me know. I'd like to get somewhat of a headcount. My GT is Covert Gunman. Shortly before 12 I will be sending out game invites to a Private Multiplayer Match.

That's definitely not true. I remember seeing you around here. :)

I don't agree with this. I believe that it is very possible for two or more people to be in control. I also don't think it should be like an election where there are candidates and self promotion and voting.

Don't worry guys, my absence will all be explained in due time. And while I will be away for quite a while, 2 years to be exact, I do intend to return to the site and my position.

Here's an idea. Give Lissa and I the site and during the time that I'm still here, I can show Lissa everything that would need to be done. Then once it gets closer to the time that I have to leave, Lissa and I can find someone else who can run the site alongside her.

He was originally going to turn the site over to me, but when I told him I couldn't afford it at the current time and I'd be leaving at the end of the year anyway, he essentially turned me down. If it was my decision, I would add an ad to the site in an instant, but since he still wants control over the site, a big decision like that would have to go through him and he makes the ultimate decision. My opinion is that he turns the site over to me and I run it the best way I deem necessary to best benefit the site and its users. I don't intend to tear the site down or break it in anyway and that was never my intention. I only want the best for site as a whole. Whether he likes it or not, the site needs to be run in the same way that a business is run. because of that there needs to be some form of income the site provides in order to keep the site running.

Some of you guys are hitting every single thing that I've explained to Dan, but he just won't listen to me whatsoever. Yes, I'll be leaving the site here at the end of August, but that's beside the point. I can still run the site until then and I know what group of people to look toward for replacing myself and running the site, and that group is our own current staff. Ads would also be a fantastic option for funding the site. Like perfectlemonade has already proven, a single ad would more than pay for the costs of the site. Maybe you can all show Dan that what I've told him is the correct path to take.

Alright, so for those of us who play on our Xbox 360's, we will be following the same schedule that our good friend Ehjookayted came up with. Here is that schedule: Planned Playdates [*:1c4bntvf]January 28 (Saturday)- This day will prepare us for a cool January 30th week, in tribute to the Wunderwaffe-JZ3. This is a normal, global playdate. [*:1c4bntvf]February 20 (Monday)- This is an exclusively American playdate in honor of Presidents' Day. For most high school and middle school children, this is a day off. [*:1c4bntvf]February 25 (Saturday)- A quick playdate in honor of the leap year this year (29 days in February). This is a normal, global playdate. [*:1c4bntvf]March 14 (Saturday)- Playdate that commemorates Pi day! 3/14 day will be a special challenge day. 4-player games to round 20 on any map, but the end of the game will total the points of the entire team divided by their downs plus revives multiplied by 10 to determine the winner. Someone must take a picture of the game ending scoreboard. [*:1c4bntvf]April 1 (Sunday)- This is a global playdate in honor of Richtofen and his trickery. Players have the option to compete in a Moon showdown. Teams can break off and can compete in the Moon Challenge, which will be discussed later, as it is a map full of trickery. [*:1c4bntvf]May 12 (Saturday)- Global playdate in honor of the Majestic-12 group. [*:1c4bntvf]June 1 (Friday)- Global playdate in honor of Group 601. Classic map playdate where the goal is to achieve as many round 20s on the 4 classic maps. The winners will be based individually with their prize as brains. [*:1c4bntvf]June 23 (Sunday)- Day for getting all the students who have been too busy with school to finally play together! Most schools should be done at this point. Global playdate. [*:1c4bntvf]July 4, 5, 6 (Wednesday, Thursday, Friday)- Summer Marathon run. These days will be dedicated to 4 player games to round 30, 3 player games to 40, or 2 player games to 50. Global playdate. Americans on July 4 can choose to only play Five in tribute of Independence Day. [*:1c4bntvf]August 11 (Saturday)- Normal global playdate [*:1c4bntvf]September 1, 2 (Saturday, Sunday)- Two global playdates in honor of the upcoming Group 935 week (9/3 and 9/5 take place that week). [*:1c4bntvf]October 27 (Saturday)- Halloween themed playdate for the whole site. Challenge will be a Kino der Toten one. [*:1c4bntvf]November 4, 5 (Sunday, Monday)- First day is a make-up day for those who cannot make the last 11/5 AKA 115 Day festivities. This will be our last game on Black Ops. We won't be following the same team format that Ehj is using though. Instead we will all just meet up in several multiplayer private match parties where we will separate into groups in order to play. I will be able to host all playdates up till the August 11th playdate. I would assume that Faust would also be able to host, along with several of our other staff members. Every single playdate will be at 12pm PST on the days that they are assigned. Anyway, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
