Yes, all that Psy4 has said is correct. We are scheduling a fun match for the more active and regular players on the Armory server and forums. It is merely to get a group players to join in on one server and play scenarios and maybe a scrimmage - just purely for fun.
If you want the password, please contact Psy4 or myself via email or msn. Here is a list.

Please place this at the subject of your post: "funmatch password - yourgamename". And then we will verify if you are on the list and then we will send you the password.
Please do not take offense if you were not listed above. Psy4 and I had a long chat on MSN about who to invite and we decided to mostly FA regulars. If this is a success, we would be happy to schedule another event.
The time of the event is 2:30 est on this coming Saturday, as Psy4 has already stated. Please come a little early so we can get it started on time. If you have to leave at any point during the event, it is not a problem. This gives the oppurtunity for more people to come in if they so desire.
We scheduled for more people to come because assuredly not everyone would be able to make it. Hopefully we will have a good turn out for this.
Now a list of possible activities to have during the event:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AK-47 vs. M-16 Single Shot Match: This activity will obviously revolve around the use of the AK-47 and M-16. All of the shooting will be done in single shot to even out the gameplay and to see which gun is proven to be the best single shot weapon. The map will be tc_battlefield_r2, so download it if you need it in the downloads section. Red team will be assigned the Ak-47 and Blue team will be assigned the M-16. And then the two teams will duel it out. The use of other weaponry is strictly prohibited. This should provide for some interesting long, mid, and short range single shot combat.
Knife Arena: You can probably guess what this one is about. Well for the not so clever people, it will be a knife fight! :shock: The map will be issas_box (a very short download) and it will be complete and utter chaos. But before the chaos commences, we will wait for everyone to enter the map. Both teams will line up on their respective sides and then they will wait for the go signal to charge. As soon as either Psy4 or myself call out "Attack", both sides will charge and fight to the death. And from there you can respawn and fight along until the end of the match. This will, hopefully, provide for some exciting, yet chaotic, knife battles in the cramped space of issas_box.
The 25-Player Claymore Kill: The purpose of this activity is to accomplish the biggest claymore kill ever known to FA. Everyone on the server will join one team except for Psy4 or myself (who ever wants to make the kill) and then the lone enemy will kill us all with a clay. We will all have to bunch up close with people crouch upon others and people standing in teh back - similar to as if a group of people were taking a group picture. And then the ownage will commence. The clay will hopefully kill everyone and the person who is on the other team will record a demo. Merely to see what FA can do. The map is yet to be deteremind but it will most likely be a regular map.
*If everyone is not allowed on to the same team, then all teams will populate evenly and friendly fire will be turned on. That way, everyone will die.
Totem Poll Madness: The object of this activity is to create the biggest player totem poll ever created in FA. The map needed is ps_cleanout, which can be acquired at the downloads section here at the armory, because it has an enormous about of vertical space. The team will create a very big player stack, and it will hopefully go as high as 25 players. People who are not very skilled with FA movement should go on the bottom of the stack. But in any case, the whole team will have to work together and make it happen. Perhaps it can be created using the parachute in the airplane...That has yet to be determined. In any case go grab ps_cleanout and become familiar with parachute movement and FA movement in general.
The Official Firearms Marathon: Yes, you heard it right, a marathon. 8) The object of this activity is to see who can make it across one part of the map to the other the fastest. Everyone will be lined up at the starting point in a nice solid line. Psy4 or myself will be at the starting line making sure everyone is in a neat line. You will be shown where you need to be beforehand, which way you take is up to you. So once Psy4 or myself yell out "go", everyone will sprint ahead and try to win it all be getting to the point first. You can go anyway you wish and there are no rules. Except no hacking, shooting, or proning. One of us will be at the spot and he will see who gets there first. Everyone will take Battlefield Agility as their skill to even it out. Two maps will be used, so there will be two races. One will be sd_durandal and the other obj_thanatos (this may change if more suitable maps are provided). All positions will be shown before the race. It should be a lot of fun.
*To make sure no one jumps the gun, we will set the movement speed to zero and then back to normal once the race starts.
Pistol Arena: Same concept as Knife Arena, except with pistols. Should be crazy.
Mmmmhhhh.....Spam!: This is the activity for those who love spam. (Go ahead god-cow and make a comment about TBT.) (No worries TBT, you are a great bunch of guys and gal(s)) Anyways the map will be the infamous spam map, tc_iwojima. Teams will be even for this match. But there is a weapon restriction. Only weapons of spam will be allowed. This includes: M79, Frags, Concussions, Claymores, both Grenade Launchers (only the launchers), and mortars. It should be one crazy fight or should I say spamfest? But it should be a lot of fun.
Firearms In Space: Well we won't be playing in space, but it will feel like it! Gravity will be lowered for a map of your choice and then we will duel in what seems like space! The map will be tc_evil and the use of the guns that are on the map are prohibited because they often lag many people on the server. Who knows, come up with a better twist and we will use it.
Bayonet Charge!: Same concept as Knife Arena and Pistol Arena except with bayonets!
Hostage Rescue: The idea of this one is to have one player from each team stuck in the vault of the opposing side. The goal is to rescue your teammate and bring him back safely to your vault area. First team to do this wins. This should provide for some interesting gameplay with a lot stealth and many small battles. (Thanks Paradigm for the idea, I hope this is what you meant.)
Say Cheese: The entire server of players will get in a formation similar to that of taking a group picture. And then one person will take a screenshot. Everyone will be brandishing some sort of weapon to make it look cool. Thanks Wsae for the idea.
The Old West: Time to load those six shooters, because it will be an old fashioned shoot out. This activity will be placed on ps_bridge and the teams can only be equipped with Anacondas, Light Armor without additional armor (ie: helmets, and arm and leg armor), and any skill except marksmanship. A deadly game of six shooters will hopefully come out of this. Just like the Old West.
