Ski Adventure 2010!

Dear Knights,

I have booked lodging for the Ski Adventure 2010! I booked a great base camp for all of our skiing and partying activities from January 6 - 9. You can take a virtual tour of our base came at this website. The virtual tour is very good, I suggest you take it. As you will notice from the tour, our base camp has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a beer pong table!

Furthermore, I informed you before we can get a deal on ski passes, three days for the price of two. To take advantage of this please go to this website and purchase your tickets.

I am very excited for this trip, it is going to be a blast!

Sincerely,

Josey Wales

KofC Christmas Party, Ski Trip, and Other Notes

I am starting to hate COD MW2. I have been trying to change classes to much and not sticking to the class that I usually do well (the M16 with SP) it's really hard to go back to that once you feel the rush of sprinting laps around the map. I need to delete all other classes and just stick with the M16. Here is a picture of me watching Adeclipse owning up on some nublets with a helicopter.

KofC Christmas Party
The Saturday after Christmas or Texas Christmas as it is known, the Knights will be hosting a get together at the clubhouse. More details will follow, but hopefully we can get it on some of your radars (or UAVs)

KofC Thanksgiving Party
What is everyone doing Wednesday (the day before thanksgiving) anyone want to do something?

Ski Trip 2K10
Josey will have some information concerning the ski trip that he is currently purchasing right now.

Other Notes
- Josey's bro just bought a Live subscription (The River Wolf) and so he will probably be applying for clan membership shortly.

- SB has been sleeping for over 12 hours.

- Pablito is in Austria. His cat is currently alive. Though I have not seen him today.

- Looks like Warthog's roommate got MW2, and will be one tonight. Josey will be on tonight and I think I heard Dammer will be on. Not sure what time I will be on (if at all) but if not have fun playing. UPDATE: Warthog is heading home tonight, not playing COD.

- Joe Mauer wins the MVP.

A Nice Little Saturday Planned...

So I was thinking about the team aspect of COD MW2 and I think we need to figure out a good way that we can beat all of our win streaks. (I think its about 17 win streaks for most of us) I think we need to have some roles. Obviously, Adeclipse will snipe, puyo will have a snipers mentality with the M16 or whatnot and we will have 2 mid-range (kind of like what Josey and I do) and then maybe 1 or 2 knife classers. I have been working on this class and its been pretty fun and does a great job of causing havoc. Anyway, I was thinking about that. Discuss it in the comments.

Anyway, Eternal, SB and I all played some BYF today with some other people. Now we are watching Beerfest drinking boots and UFC is on soon. This Saturday has been awesome. Word on teh street is Josey is making an appearance and so is McHolla/FuggFrist.

Knights of Cydonia Ski Adventure 2010!

Hello Knights,

Kel and I would like to plan Knights of Cydonia ski trip this winter. We have done preliminary research and discovered that we can get a deal at Lutsen in January, we can ski three days for the price of two: $116 plus tax. In addition, Kel has found us lodging, we can rent a home/condo between $440 - $525 total for three nights. The price will vary depending on how big a place we think we need and also how many people want to come (the more that come the cheaper it will be per person). Because we will have a home/condo to say in, we will have a place to make food and play drinking games when we get off the hill. Kel went on a trip like this last year and said it was really fun and cheap.

We were planning on going for three days between January 5^th – 10^th. We can go for three days during the week, or over the weekend, depending on what works best for everyone. Please e-mail me or post letting me know you are in, we would like to know by Thanksgiving so we can book a place for us to stay. Kel checked, and the place she stayed in last year is currently available so it would be great if we could just book that because we know it’s nice and cheap.

Sincerely,

Josey Wales

COD4MW2: TIPS

So, most of us have been playing the new Call of Duty Four: Modern Warfare Two, and while we normally roll over the opposing teams we play it might be a good idea to share some of our knowledge to bring up all clan members. I usually have the most deaths of any of you so don't take my advice, but I was wondering what tips the rest of you could share.

First off, I found a few interesting tips from infiniteward themselves.
-- Sticking a Semtex grenade to a character holding a riot shield is a good way to take them out from the front without having to flank them.
-- Using a flash or stun grenade against players using a riot shields is very effective causing them lower their shields for a moment and opening them up for an attack.
-- Aim for the chest or neck region on burst fire assault rifles. For full auto assault rifles, do the same but fire in groups of three to five rounds. Doing this will make the muzzle climb for recoil and give you a second or third round headshot.
-- Thermal scopes work great with smoke grenades - enemies show up right through the smoke (unless they have the cold blooded perk!)
-- Shoot down a Pavelow helicopter faster by not locking on with the AT-4 (anti-tank weapon); shooting from the hip prevents the Pavelow from using countermeasures.

Obviously, we know most of those but sometimes it is good to see them again to help remember them.

Here are some things I have been thinking of:
-- Who ever has a predator strike, or AC130 should let the rest of the team know where the majority of the enemies are located. I know it's kind of hard to explain it sometimes but as we play the maps more we will get used to it.
-- We should coordinate our kill streaks if possible. I think we need to have at least 2 or 3 people using the UAV perk, and then I don't know if they rest matter, but maybe you guys have thoughts.
-- Are the sentex (or whatever they are called) better than the regular frags? I seem to be killed by those more than any other type of grenade.

Classes
Also, if you want you should comment on what class you use. Right now, I use the FAMAS with a holographic scope, the increase melee distance, with stopping power, and cold blooded. I use the flash grenade and the frag. I also use UAV, Predator missile, and Hind.

I sometimes use the M4 with everything the same except for I use Bling with a silencer and then get rid of the increased melee distance.

GET CALL OF DUTY: MODERN WARFARE 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

locopuyo: make a post yelling at people to get cod

(email from Josey Wales @ 10:52am 11/09/09)
Are there any plans to get everyone online to play CODMW2 this weekend or week?



I will get it at Target tomorrow morning, Target doesn't have a midnight release and since I cashed in all my credit card points for Target gift cards, I figure I should use those for things like that. I am pretty free this whole week and can play whenever. I am thinking maybe I bring over the xbox and we play some at the club house all in the same location. I dunno, leave your thoughts in the comments.

DammerWillTowelU and then DammerWillBuyANewOne

So I took a half day today and decided to watch a movie and nap. I had gotten in the first 5 minutes of Porky's when Daymonster sent me a message online. I was confused because it said "u suck", and I figured Puyo must have taken part in a little identity theft. Needless to say, I was a little excited that maybe I could get some online vid play in. Unfortunately, my 360 decided to RROD on me. Considering it would cost me $99 to fix the damn thing through the Microsoft return service (my 3 year replacement warranty ran out a month ago believe it or not) I decided to try the towel trick...to no avail. It probably would have only lasted a week anyway. So, I'll probably have to buy a new one now. The real question is whether I go after an Elite or an Arcade. I don't think I need an Elite, and would probably get along quite well with an Arcade. All I really need is my hard drive methinks. Thoughts?
