        How do you schedule that in the middle of an event like the world cup. Makes sense to let the less dirty team through. Good Incentive -- nm - zork Jun 28, 10:31 2

- fudge, I don't have Showtime. -- nm - crash davis Jun 28, 10:05 1
  - I don’t see how attacking Nick Fudge solves anything. -- nm - Qale Jun 28, 11:07
- halo is still a thing? -- nm - Truman Jun 28, 10:05 35
  - I miss Halo 3. -- nm - crash davis Jun 28, 10:06 34

        it was 75. cause I had 75 kills with the guass cannon while you where driving. - Truman Jun 28, 10:24 2
        
        yeah, that was a crazy game, we should have died quite a bit more than none. -- nm - groiny Jun 28, 10:25 1

        I played Halo One via the MasterChief collection, but I never did play Halo 2. I assume it was good. Halo 3 was my introduction to that gen of console -- nm - crash davis Jun 28, 10:23 10
        
        Halo 2 was so good that they ripped off several of the maps for Halo 3. -- nm - David Jun 28, 10:43 6

Poke-Goers - you all know you don't HAVE to wait to have an egg slot before you accept a gift, right? -- (edited) - Andie Jun 28, 09:59 4
