: By relaunch, I mean: make the decision to play Halo 4 each week, plan a
: playlist that'll get you through at least the first hour or so, and then
: promote it. Hit up Twitter, Waypoint, HBO with some enthusiasm and entice
: people.

Nomis knows more and is better with promotion than a lot of us and he's had stuff going on lately on and off, and I didn't think to push it more until about 3 weeks ago. We're not playing Halo 4 every week because we don't to.

: Letting people bring stuff is awesome, but I think you should have a couple
: game types planned to get started and also to help with promotion.

noted

: I'm on the outside, so I don't know what's really happening with you guys,
: but there just seems to be a general lack of promotion and enthusiasm.

I really care about this continuing, but it's a vicious cycle: people not showing up makes it harder to be enthusiastic, which doesn't help getting people to show up, which leads to not that many people showing up, which makes it hard to be enthusiastic.

: I don't know if this community (HBO) has just lost interest in Halo 4 in
: general, but if anyone's going to pull them out of this funk and get them
: back into it, I think Community Customs is in a prime spot to do it. If I
: was available on Friday nights, I'd help with that personally.. but I'm
: not :-\

: Anyway, these are just my thoughts. I don't want to see you guys fizzle out.

thanks
I forgot to ask yesterday, is there anything you'd recommend, as far as maps and gametypes? Your videos showing off Forge weirdness should provide for a lot of unique ways to play and I've heard about a few things so I know stuff is out there, but it doesn't seem to get talked about much in general or suggested much for Customs Night, and I don't know what to search for in the file browser, especially if I don't want to sort through a lot of sub-par stuff.
