Halopedia:Community Social Gaming
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Introduction
History
Community Social Gaming (CSG), previously known as Halopedia Warz, was created in 2007 as a collaborative gaming effort by former administrator RelentlessRecusant. At first Halopedia Warz was a spur-of-the-moment kind of thing, with matches scheduled whenever Relentless was available. Later on Halopedia Warz turned into an internal gaming network where organized teams faced each other in Halo 2 & Halo 3. When RelentlessRecusant took an indefinite leave of absence in 2009, the responsibilities were taken up by CommanderTony and Spirit-of-HALO (now known as Killjax) as a way to bring the local gaming community together. Due to time constraints however, Halopedia Warz was slowly taken offline.
Now, as a way to promote Halo 4, Halopedia Warz has been revitalized and reorganized into "Community Social Gaming" as Halopedia's new social gaming effort.
You can check out older matches of CSG, as well as Halopedia Warz, here.
Information
As you probably all know, Halo 4 will be released worldwide on November 6th, 2012. I figured hosting a simple gaming event within Halo 4 would be a fantastic way to celebrate the game's launch. Its a good way to socialize amongst our digital selves and have a little fun. Sounds good, right?
So before I go any further, I would like to know first the amount of players who would like to participate in order to know for certain if this will proceed or not.

Rules & Gaming Etiquette
- Sportsmanship: Respect fellow Halopedians on the field of battle, regardless if they are on your team. This is just a game, poor conduct and extremely foul language will not be tolerated.
- Teamwork: Work as a team to achieve victory over the opposing team, not participating without prior warning will result in the exclusion of that day's events.
- Enjoyment: Make this a fun, exciting, and enjoyable environment for everybody. Do not shun other players with profanities, racial slurs, or other hateful comments. As stated before, this is just a videogame... treat it as that.
- Requirements: Halopedians must have a copy of Halo 4 to participate as well as any downloadable-content (DLC) that are subsequently released after the game's launch (there will be exceptions however, but it is heavily advised); in addition, have an up-to-date Xbox LIVE Gold subscription.
- Participation: Matches will begin shortly after the posted time. Players who are scheduled to game and have been organized into their respective teams will need to participate.

Cooperative
Interested in some cooperative play? Need a buddy to game with?
If you're interested in Spartan Ops, but don't want to go at it alone, then send a message to either Killjax or Spartacus to have your name added to the list below. This will let any member of CSG know that you are available to play Spartan Ops with. Remember, once you're on the list you will be subjected to occasional invites, if any.
If for some reason you do not want to be on the list, or do not have the time anymore, just ask to be removed and we will promptly do so.
