I had a very topsy-turvy day pugging on my Xbox a/c, which is at a slightly higher level than my PS3 alt - they're both N7 120 and around the 9k CP, which may not look impressive, but I sport a Dog of War banner and always use level 20 characters and equip consumables, so I think I'm good to go for Gold. Now I know this may sound like serious butthurt, but I got kicked after a full extraction mission successful game yesterday - U/U/G - Hydra / Cerberus, and I don't think it was because the two kickers had friends waiting to join, as I landed in their open lobby immediately again and left around the same time the first kick vote (re-)appeared. I've been kicked from lobbies before, but in the 6500 or so games I've played, most of which have been pugs, I've never once been kicked after a game. So yeah, I'm a bit butthurt.
The game we played was far from my best, as I got stomped by a Goon on Wave 7 and gutted by a Phantom when we were down to the last two enemies (both kickers were in spectator mode at this point) on wave 9, but the fourth guy kept us in the game. Waves 3 and 6 were hacks, for which we all stayed in the circles for the entire duration, with occasional missiles and revives as necessary. Targets on 10 went smoothly, with me contributing two of the kills with missiles. Extraction wave was strange, because one of them headed off-map, while the other fell off the ramp trying and died a couple of times but was always revived. The other guy came back and we held the back room together pretty effortlessly until around 30 seconds. The Paladin dropped behind me when running up the ramp, and I know I should probably have revived him but there were 8 seconds left and I really need those credits. He gelled anyway and we made a full extraction in 23 minutes.
I was a BatSent with Saber I, with a Kroguard/ Reegar, and the two kickers were a Paladin (BotB, of course) and Havoc, both with Lancers I think. I dunno for sure though, as Snap Freeze and melee appeared in the Paladin's killfeed more than anything else. As I said, my performance wasn't great and I came in last on 92k, with the Havoc host just above me and the other two closely spread 20k higher, with the Paladin on top by about 100 points from the Kroguard. We all had comparable medals and I was thinking, "That was a pretty good game, all things considered", even if I wasn't particularly proud of my own performance, so I was loading up equipment to 'do better' when I got kicked. I wasn't spamming Shockwave in any way, so I have to come to the conclusion that that's just how Xbox people are, Kyle... 
On a more positive note, I've seen Bowlcuts posting here recently and we ran into each other for a couple of 13 minute BatSol Silver games and then randomly again in the next game when we'd both moved up to Gold. If my gels drop to single figures I find two quick Silver games to be a very easy, therapeutic way of earning some fast credits for a couple of JEPs. We exchanged some friendly messages afterwards too, so it's nice to see the power of BSN means that that's not how all Xbox players are...
