How to Participate
If you would like to join in, post your Gamertag in this thread and I and/or one of the other hosts will hit you up with a friend request. After you accept the friend request, I'll add you to the list of participants and you can just watch for a game invite on Friday night. Make sure you are on my XBox Live friends list prior to Friday to make sure that everything goes smoothly with the invites.Check this thread periodically in the upcoming week to stay abreast of any changes or additional details.
UPDATE 1:
It looks like the way this is going to work is that we'll get together in groups of 6-8 people for matchmaking, and the hosts of the individual parties may coordinate some private matches between the groups throughout the night. If you are interested in being a host of one of these groups, send me a PM.
Also, I think it would be cool for all of us to change our clan tag to GBDC (Giant Bomb Dot Com) to properly represent the GiantBomb community. If you're really attached to your current clan tag, you could just change temporarily for the night or just leave it alone if it really bothers you to change it.
UPDATE 2:
Turbomonkey138 will now be hosting a UK session with an earlier start time for all of you across the Atlantic.
UPDATE 3:
The first draft of the company assignments is up. Although they're likely to change prior to Friday, it should give you an idea of how things are going to be organized.
UPDATE 4:
Added details on round-robin tournament.
UPDATE 5:
As some of you have noticed, the teams are booked to be slightly over the capacity allowed by MW2. This is to account for some people likely not showing up. Once Friday night arrives and we see the turnout, we will work to accommodate as many people as possible.
