==Tournaments==

MLG's main function is to organize tournaments and competitions and present leaderboards of the top competitors of a game. MLG's most famous tournament series is the MLG Pro Circut. This is an annual series of tournaments held by MLG in which competitors of all games compete at various locations, usually a major city, in the United States. The current Pro Circut is the MLG Pro Circut 2008 which runs from April 11 to November 3, and has 6 tournaments including the championship. Because MLG is fully sponsored, players competing in an MLG tournament are provided with all necessary equipment such as televisions and video game systems, except game controllers. However, some players may choose to bring equipment anyway to practice their game before the competition. Typically, each MLG tournament is held over the course of a weekend (Friday through Sunday) with the only exception being the Playoffs/Championship, which occurs over a period of four days. MLG has tweaked the gametypes and, in the case of Halo 3, the maps to provide highly competitive ~~yet balanced~~ gameplay for a wide variety of basic gametypes such as: Capture the Flag, Team Slayer, and Team King of the Hill. The MLG gametypes tend to be much more fast paced than default settings. The current official MLG gametypes and settings (version 5) can be found [http://www.mlgpro.com/content/page/192918/Official-MLG-Halo-3-Settings-v5 here].
