The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

LAN Party @ Rayne's: Date?

Submitted by Mintz on Sat, 04/12/2008 - 1:00pm.

Rayne is graciously opening her house for our LAN entertainment, and it's time we got together again to play Halo 1. I'm talking about lugging TVs and Xboxes from your house, four-people-per-screen, Mountain-Dew-fueled, all-night-and-into-the-morning gaming. And Chaos'/Cyneater's/Jonathan's cookies.

It's been long enough; let's do it again.

So without further ado, when should it happen?

Saturday, May 31 OR Saturday, June 7?

Update: The LAN will take place on

Saturday, June 7th.

Inform your friends and family that you will be unavailable on that date. Look for more LAN-related information in the next few days.

Both dates are good for me.

I think it would be cool if we could grill out while at her place. But, I'm open to ordering pizza. Would save a lot of time and I'm not volunteering to man the grill.

I'm up for a H1 LAN. Can't wait.

So far it's looking like May

So far it's looking like May 31. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before FB & Family, Disavowed, and Jdogg respond. However, we need to get some more THXers aware, like Brick, Rev, Ace, Celery, Diesel, Insane, Bullet, Phoenix, and anyone else I'm sure I missed.

I will be there. Rap. you

I will be there. Rap. you got one of the worst server's Logan's has to offer. Lucky you!!

I'm in. As long as it's on a weekend there is a 95% chance I can be there.

I suck at Halo 1 though.

Bad.

Either date is fine for me. With the foul brethren unavailable on the 31st, it may be better to do it on the 7th.

Lack of Foul Brethren and possible lack of Rapture is good case to move to June 7th given the general indifference of everyone else.

DJ just informed me he probably won't be able to make the 31st. So the 7th it is.

Inform your friends and family that you will be unavailable on that date. Look for more LAN-related information in the next few days.

I'm down for some H1 carnage. If guests are allowed, I could get up to 3 others fairly easily from our Macon LAN group.

It's confusing to me because he says he will be able to make it, then concludes his post saying "Have fun at this one" like he's sad he won't be able to make it.

That sentence was as clear as mud.

I can see why you guys say

I can see why you guys say it's confusing. But it's also obvious what he is saying IMO. (correct me if I'm wrong trigger)For clearification: Trigger is not comming to this LAN,he is sad. He is going to try his darndest to come to the THX bday LAN.
