Second Chance Cup and AGLA Playoff Pick ‘Em Update!

September 8, 2012 in Rushes by l1ght5aber

Alright, a week and a half has passed and both the regular playoffs and the Second Chance Cup have moved along quite nicely. We’ll start out with the Second Chance Cup (SCC) results! In the SCC, three games have been played. First, Kittens With Spikes took on Captain Crunch and the Cereal Killers. Two close matches were played- Kittens With Spikes pulled out a series victory with a 5-4 and a 6-3. The second played series was the notoriously well-named Jackals With Freakin Laser Beams versus The Owowos. The Jackals utilized their lazers (or was it hammers?) well, scoring two [...]

The Second Chance Cup

August 28, 2012 in Rushes by l1ght5aber

Hi guys.. I’m back! You are probably all saying something like “WTF bro why were there no events this season???!” Well.. let me explain. The absence of events this season was mainly due to the combo of three major leagues running at once, which caused a lot of scheduling conflicts. If that wasn’t enough, I had a fair bit of life stuff that needed to be dealt with. And I wanted to brainstorm some ideas for events after the season to keep you all occupied until Halo 4 came around! That said, this is my first new event, a consolation [...]

Weekend Events Summation

July 21, 2012 in Rushes by l1ght5aber

I didn’t manage a write up last night (I fell asleep), so I figured I would combine the write ups for the two events that occurred this weekend. So.. this write-up will cover last night’s Vanilla rush and tonight’s H3 rush. Now that I’m done stating the obvious.. to the write ups! Back to Basics Rush The Back to Basics Vanilla Rush had five teams participating. Those teams were Turquoise Jeep (Packfan010), Humpin your bombhole (OVERweightGOAT), Wizard Sleeves (FPS Rebel), Four Guys and Some People and One Ball (Crusader0102) and Deven’s lisp (halfbreed105). It started off good, with a lengthy [...]

Signups have opened for tonight’s Vanilla rush. Hopefully we can see some of the top teams competing in this one to get a glimpse of what this season will offer in terms of competition! Regardless, extra games are always an opportunity to jump at, especially in the semi-competetive setting offered by your average Rush. Enough of my rambling. Forum info: Back to Basics Rush When? Friday, July 20th at 6:00 PDT / 8:00 CDT / 9:00 EDT Where? Sign-ups will begin at 9:00 PM EDT and will close after 30 minutes. If we manage 32 teams, signups will close then. [...]

AGLA Power Rankings, Week 1

July 17, 2012 in Rushes by l1ght5aber

AGLA Power Rankings (Week 1) By L1ght5aber Everyone seemed to get into the trend of posting a top 10 last season. Since I’m a Hoe, and I can just post things, I figured I’d bypass the system a little and post one of my own to start this season off. However, I will be doing this a little differently than the ones from last season. I prefer to build up suspense, so I will start at the bottom (#10) and work up. Without further adieu… T-10: Reckless Fire Keith829’s team features once more in a top 10 article, but begins [...]

Congrats to the winners of tonight’s Random’s Choice Rush!

July 3, 2012 in Rushes by l1ght5aber

This evening, we played a rush in which the gametypes played were (partially) chosen by matchmaking randoms. The gametype had the ability to change each round, depending on what I played in matchmaking. Four teams lined up to do battle in many different venues- REDBARON225′s Los Hijos de Lopez, angel9001′s, Angel Likes to Make Big Words, Crusader0102′s The Highest Flying Cow Always Wins, and iSnipeUd0wn’s We Hold Crayons. The randoms picked Dash as the rush’s first gametype. Angel faced We Hold Crayons and achieved a 7-2 victory, while Highest Flying Cow scored a narrow 5-4 over Los Hijos de Lopez. [...]
