An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind i would soo laugh if this guy proved to be better then all three of you. This is wats wrong with the world today

Well then, the person who is last to lose one eye is the winner because in a world that is blind, the one-eyed man is king.

Until the blind assassin who was born in the darkness proves otherwise.
Ladies and Gents, we have the makings of ME4 here

That must not happen because "The DARKNESS MUST NOT BE BREACHED."

Sort of agree with Jack Crapper. Since it was a Gold match before, why not just do U/U/G? Pretty sure you three could handle that **** easily. Using speedrun tactics probably won't seem so special, since it's obviously coordinated. No one should have home-field advantage, that's all I'm saying. Besides, unless you get one of the newer maps, the spawn points on most maps are usually pretty well known, yeah?

U/U/P would be a better measure of relative skill. I've definitely played with people who perform well in speed runs but stuggle some when forced out of their comfort zone. You should also offer to let your random host. I would also tell your random the objective is to come out on top of the score board. Winning when you hold the advantages is not all that impresssive, just expected. Good luck, it might be fun for all if the competition is fair.

its not about wining and/or points or about a challenge. its about showing the guy taht just becuase you finfish last on the scoreboard doesn't mena you suck and you should only play bronze, it'll just show him (hopefully) that sometimes people struggle and sometimes things don't go as planned and somebody does way more for the win then the others

Off topic: Ashen, what did you think of the Javelin on your GI now that the shieldgate's been reduced? 

I can OSK anything that isn't a boss on gold with a headshot, using duration cloak and the weight reduction in Networked AI.

So pretty much all of my issues with the Javelin have been resolved. It's still not as good as the Claymore, Indra, Piranha, or even the Particle Rifle but it is at least now more respectable as an alternative.

Nice.  Thanks for the insight.

Just out of curiosity, what happens if this all goes as planned? Is there an exchange of words after the match? If so, how is that supposed to go?

IDK, we'll see how he responds. the goal is for him to come in way last and for me to send him a message identical to what he sent my friend. we'll see how it goes form there

$5 says this all ends in several friend requests on XBL. Any takers?

I'm sorry, but I'm not understanding something here.

2 friends were treated very badly by some random person on the internet so you are going to get a gang of very good players to enact revenge on behalf of your friends, no?

Why isn't it you and those two friends of yours playing? Or more to the point... Why aren't those two friends of yours doing it themselves without help? You believe they are good enough, no? Do they? Did they ask you to do this?

... if, in your msg to him, you don't link it to the previous game of your friends, you teach this guy nothing, except that sending rude msgs on XBOX  is common.

If, in your msg to him, you do link it to the previous game of your friends, you basically say "Yip, you are better than they are and they're too scared to come play with you again"... and that happens whether you win or lose, no?

Considering the whole thing is about a single ePeen incident, how exactly are you helping your friends? 

Have fun

hopefully it teaches the guy not to be a jerk. that you don't have to call people noobs who should go back to bronze becuase you beat them in one game. he obviously thinks of himself as a good player so it'll be a relaity check for him. If not oh well at least his ego takes a little hit

Even if you beat him you are Elite players so if he does well he is still a good player and no Reality check needed

see thats where its all relative. I don't think i'm elite becuase i play with people better then me, I think they are elite, they probaly don't feel they are elite though, then an average player might think i'm elite and a bad player might think an average player is elite so on and so on.

The point being is i don't consider myself elite by any means, I do consider myself an above average player for sure but i would never trash talk a player who is bad to his face and tell him to f off. I'd rather offer advice. sure i'll laugh about it amongst friends but i'll always help out.

People who feel the need to be on a pedastol or feel the need to talk down to people only becuase they are better at a freakin video game gets on my nerves. Its not the NFL where peyton manning and tom brady are trash talking each other. its a dam game nayone can play by sitting on a couch and presing buttons. its not the olympics

You would be right if this was a competition to prove that we are more skilled.

But it's not, as the OP has repeated multiple times.

And I'm just in it for the lulz.

True but you guys say your Better then him already so you know your going to beat him and if he is on here he is probably reading this right now 

[Meistr_Chef]

All this buildup...for what seems to be not a lot of payoff. Can you guys think of something to make it epic at least? The "teach him a lesson" part is seriously underwhelming.

its not about being better then him. I could assume it but that would make me a jerk. i've never seen him in action so i really have no clue how good he is. I just don't liek his attitude and gonna give him a taste of his own attitude right back at him to see how he likes it.

Its not meant to be a competition or a challenge. Its meant to teach a jerk a lesson

and to give ashen a laugh apparently

it wasn't meant to be epic but what did you have in mind?
plus who knows his response might be epic

Probably already been said but "you can't out-crazy the crazy."

They aren't going to learn and most of the time you are just getting sucked down to their level. And the thing is, it's THEIR level. They have been there longer, and they know how to be jerks/crazy more than you ever could.

Escalation rarely succeeds in behavioral modification. Rather, expect more escalation.

/my 2 credits.

Edit: "pick your battles" comes to mind also.

I never claimed to be better than him in this thread, did I?

I only stated that I have an aversion to noobs that call other noobs out for being noobs while they themselves have to be carried. That, and I find this whole scenario hilarious and would like to see how it all plays out.

Who knows, this guy might be better than all of us.... but I doubt it.

+1 to this

except i'd replace noobs with players calling out other players in general regardless of their skill.

This is a perfectly viable social experiment. Humans behave in such interesting ways. People naturally want to either provoke a response commensurate with their expectations, or provoke a response in reaction to their own feelings.
