Did you try to join? Apologies, I invited you, then inadvertently completed a whole solo and reset the lobby to public for the next game in the time it must have taken you to accept them XD.
Haha, yeah, that would be quick even by your standards - I only noticed one invite at the time, and I was probably a good 10 minutes responding to it. No need to apologise, I should have told you I was either busy or on my way.

ahh okay. I sent one, waited a bit then started and sent another on like w6. Got a decent Krosent and Worlard instead next game before a puggernaut GiPed into the 4th spot, so you potentially missed a headbutt party.
Highlight: Wonderful coincidences.
I was derping on Bronzeby myself as the KroGuard vs Geth on Giant, because I needed a few more grabs and a few thousand melee points for Combat Mastery. All of a sudden, someone joined. And it was Salarian Infiltrator Master Race, who arrived as a KroSent. We exchanged headbutts and MRAHRRs and heavy melees, and then proceeded to have the most fun Bronze game I've ever played. We ran around madly smacking everything, yelling FOR TUCHANKAAAA and HAHAH, THEY'RE DEAD!. (I literally did not fire my weapon once the entire game.)

The two standout moments were things that we could never have planned, and probably won't ever be able to repeat even if we try. The first was that at the end of a wave, there was one Trooper left. We both hit him with running heavy melee at exactly the same time. OMG, you should have seen how far he flew! The second was that I saw two Rocket Troopers hiding behind one of the low walls in the room next to the LZ, dashed into cover opposite one of them and grabbed him. As my character turned and smacked him down, I saw that SIMR was doing exactly the same thing with the other Rocket Trooper right next to me! Synchronized cover grabs is gonna be the next big thing in Prestacious's challenges, I'm letting you know right now ![]()
High/Low: 4 Day's, I haven't played 1 single match. I am weaning myself off the game, probably for good this time.

re: marksmad's post about Krogan Bronze antics...
One of the two most fun solos I ever did was a celebratory KroGuard solo on Silver, Ghost, Geth after I finished 'Best of the Best'. The goal: murder every f*cking robot using only melee and Biotic Charge, without ever using equipment or firing my weapon. It was glorious, and my only regret is that I didn't choose a smaller map.
But speaking of smaller maps...
The other most fun solo I ever did was, in fact, to finish up 'Lone Wolf' because I ended up needing one more Bronze. So... N7 Fury vs. Cerberus on Glacier. It was actually somewhat challenging to kill the Guardians without using my weapon!
Anyway I heartily approve of ridiculously easy solos when you just want to revel in your superiority over the game.

You don't have to go to Silver.
EDIT: For example,
Just use Acolyte and melee to heart's content. Vanguard and Shaman can Barrier->melee for extra lols and to make up for their relatively weaker melee among krogan - you heavy melee as soon as you press barrier so that you melee while the barrier animation is going off. Melee doesn't have to mean nothing but melee, and indeed, obv this way one can melee far more than otherwise.
I'll get around to uploading some example clips to youtube to show how it's done.
Probably bump an old thread on the krogan shaman as well. Started by someone at the end of the game's support cycle, back when I had not played the game for over a year since quitting after release, with the first mention of the Acolyte piercing through the haze of indifference
Oh good, I thought I was the only one who did this.
Half the time ME3 freezes on initial loadup so once it works i leave it running all day even if I'm away
Just use Acolyte and melee to heart's content.
I see your 'lolbronze' comment and raise you a 'lolAcolyte'. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's not effective, but a Krogan without a Shotgun Omniblade is not a real Krogan. Otherwise I heartily approve of everything in your post, and can agree that timing melee with Barrier detonation leads to hilarious animations which most people never get to see.
Highlight: My Krogan Sentinel / Claymore played a Gold pug with QMR's alt QMI / Valiant 1 last night - Cerberus on Ghost. We started as a duo but were joined on wave 2 by possibly the worst pugs I've ever experienced. From memory, the scores were QMR with 197k, me with around 110k (yeah yeah, I know), pug 1 with 39k (mostly down to futile EZ early wave 11 missiles) and pug 2 with 9k. 9k! I didn't know it was possible to score that low.
The undoubted highlight of the game was the wave 6 EZ hack. The two pugs died within a few seconds of the start of the wave, partly because they started engaging enemies rather than just GET IN THE CIRCLE! But QMR and I took up our positions in hard cover and proceeded to destroy interminable waves of Dragoons and Phantoms and the rest of the wave budget during what was obviously an exceedingly slow hack because there were only two of us there. I think maybe two Phantoms and two Dragoons in total made it anymore than halfway down either ramp, into what can comfortably be described as 'Claymore to the face' range. If it hadn't been for needing ammo, having already popped 2 or 3 TCPs, I would have quite happily stayed where I was to finish off the wave.
Extraction wave was pretty textbook too - hang out near the back to begin, let the pugs die in the EZ, go a bit closer to begin to lure the enemies away, then take the long way round, arriving in the EZ with less than 10 seconds to spare. If only the dead pugs would watch and learn.
As an aside, I'm about 10 games away from finishing Blood Pack Mastery for the 10th time, after which I really think I'm going to give up on challenges completely and just use the Claymore on every kit in the game. I probably won't, as I have some other favourites, but it is one incredibly satisfying gun to use. They have to give us the Claymore in the next game. They have to!
TL;DR HA!!! THEY'RE DEAD!!!

Yeah, that was a fun game. I had forgotten how sweet the Valiant is with an area shield stripping nuke, drill rounds and some wallhax. Wipes out CerBS mooks in a most satisfying manner. Was hearing nothing but MUAHAHA HEADSHOT!!!
for that entire game (and the next with the other krogan). Think I maxed the headshot medals on the beginning of w3, which is pretty good for liberal use of the emergency induction port.
The hack was badass. Explosions, Claymoar booms and melons popping everywhere. Kirrahe, Reegar and Urdnot Grunt would have been proud of how we held the line. As for the pugs.....well I got 15 revives off of them, which considering they weren't quarian is quite a rare achievement. The next game on London with the pyromanical Krosol joining us was also fantastic, and London and fantanstic aren't two words I will normally use in the same sentence.
TL; DR MUAHAHA HEADSHOT!!! (because that is one of the best lines designed by anyone ever)

Brute dies, staggers me into a primed Banshee. Highlight.
Lowlight: Wave 10 Collectors / London Freeze on PS3 with QMR.
Highlight: Epic Gold duo on Xbox immediately afterwards. Giant / Reapers, following a host migration on Wave 1, I solo'd a little bit with my Batarian Adept / Talon 1, before being joined by a Geth Trooper. There was another player who came and went fairly quickly. To say I'm a bit rusty with the old Xbox controller is something of an understatement, so I was pleased to be able to carry my weight without simply spamming grenades - I even managed 10 headshots, which might be a first for me on that a/c. Wave 3 Escort, Wave 6 Targets and Wave 10 Hack near the LZ were all pretty epic, and I had only one of each consumable left at the end. Kinda how it should be I guess.
Sadly one game at a time seems to be all my arthritic left thumb can manage with the Xbox controller, so I guess I'll be back on the PS3 when I'm slightly less annoyed at it.

Oddly enough, the same thing happened to me yesterday. Had to double take - making sure I really saw CB and not CE.

If something is killed by "unattributable damage" then the last thing that hit it is credited.
I don't know what constitutes unattributable damage though.
You can see an example of this every game when the Wave 11 extraction pops and everything is instant killed, giving credit to whoever hit it last with whatever
