Like an inescapable seasonal change, Customs Night will soon be here again. (I do a lot of lines about things being unavoidable, don't I? hmm) Customs Night, for the unaware, is a weekly get-together held by a small group known as Community Customs where everyone present plays custom games. We play custom and standard gametypes on custom maps (and occasionally a standard map or two) every Friday, starting at 9:00 PM Eastern time and continuing until everyone wants to stop playing customs. Customs Night features maps and gametypes that range from new to old, from small to large, from competitive to silly, and from simple to complicated. If this sounds like fun, why not join us? You can do that by simply replying to this post with your gamertag (this isn't required, but we greatly prefer to know how many people will show up).

Things to keep in mind:

- we pretty much play whatever the people present want to play
- we don't run modded content (because of risks and potential risks of bans)
- one of us, a CC admin (ShadowoftheVoid, iHyokin, Gnrl Vagueness) will have party lead for as long as we play customs (to ensure variety, consistency, and fairness)
- if you want to play something we don't already have, you'll need to tell us where to get it-- preferably by giving the gamertag of someone who has it in their file share, whether it's you or someone you know or the creator of the map or gametype
- we try to keep things varied because we get all types at Customs Night, including changing gametypes and varying how suited the current map and gametype are to straight-up competition; if you notice this hasn't changed much, please go ahead and say so; speaking of which...
- we value communication, it improves the experience of playing customs and it makes this whole thing possible, so please, talk, just don't talk over anyone, OK?
- the party stays open until we get 8-10 people, at which point it becomes invite-only, and we cap it at 14 because Halo 4 doesn't handle the highest or second-highest possible number of players in a custom game too well
- suggested supplies: a snack, a map, a joke, a drink, a friend
- that time again is 9:00 PM EDT this Friday and the game is Halo 4-- I hope we see you then!
