Community Carnage- Announcing the Bungie Summer League!

Hello fellow Seventh Column Member! For those of you who don't know me, I'm DE4TH. One of the things I do here on Bungie.net is act as a Mentor (Host) for the Community Carnage. Well I've been working on a special project for the past few months, along with the assistance from several of my fellow Mentors, to expand the [i]reach[/i] of The Community Carnage into competitive gaming. It is my pleasure to formally announce... the [i][b]Bungie Summer League[/b][/i]. The Bungie Summer League will run for 10 weeks during the summer, starting on Saturday, June 15th. That's only about a week and a half away! Once a week, a Red Team and a Blue Team will clash in an effort to gain the score for that week. At the end of the Summer, the points will be tallied, and whoever has the most will claim dominance over the other team till next summer! Your options are open, as you are able to join either Red Team or Blue Team. You are not limited to having one forced upon you. All you have to do to join either Red or Blue Team is follow the respective group! It's that easy! Each week, a Community Carnage will be held, with half the positions open for Red Team, with the other half reserved for Blue Team. As always, whoever gets into a game operates on a first come, first serve basis, so be sure to keep an eye out for the signup threads! And if you don't have a game or are not available one week, that's okay! [b][u]You have ZERO requirement to play in any Carnages, even after joining! You can pick and choose which events to attend as you please![/u][/b] Due to the... [i]unusual[/i] circumstances surrounding the community concerning the Playstation users joining, Carnages on the PS3 platform are not planned for the Bungie Summer League at this time due to many of the Community Carnage not having the correct console. Since the game we are all waiting for, Destiny (Woo!), is not out at this point we will be holding the games across the Halo Franchise, which is appropriate seeing as this is Bungie's former gig. However next Summer, you can expect the integration of the PS system into the Community Carnage and as such into the Bungie Summer League. Assuming that Destiny will by then, you can also expect to see that heavily integrated as well. We hope that you all will consider participating in this Summer long event and build a friendly rivalry between teams. Seventh Column, these Community Carnages are a great way to meet new friends and become more involved in the Community, and now they'll be happening every week over the summer! More info can be found in the "About" section of this group on some of the specifics, as well as Rules and Requirements. Happy Competing Fellow Denizens of the Seventh Column!
