I'm taking a bit of a break from group events. If anyone actually wants to get back into gaming group events then let me know. I'll still jump into Killing Floor whenever I feel like a quick fix. I just don't see the point unless other players are interested enough to learn the weapon combo's.

By the way, with penetrating shot weapons, including xbow; for each zed or player the shot passes through it gets a reduction to damage. So, when xbow goes through 2 players to hit a Scrake it is not doing enough damage to kill Scrake with 2 headshots. Sometimes even 3 headshots can still not be enough in a 6 player game. So, when other players block the Sharpie it is their own fault for Scrake raging breaching defenses, not the Sharpies. Something to keep in mind if you play Sharpie, or if you have a Sharpie in the team.

Probably not many people will see the comment so I created a discussion about the next challenge.

Personally I don't mind perk challenges but weapon limitations might take the fun out of it. Also, why no Firebug challenge? lol

Welcome to more new members Egg and Rose, hope you enjoy your time on the Killing Floor!

One of my Steam friends from way back when I was moving through SUI and HOE has joined. Thanks for joining Point Man, upgraded you to Moderator status since you are already a veteran player. Hopefully you will have some fun in our group games.

Welcome to new member Raindrop.

Welcome to new member Arthinian, hope you enjoy your time in Killing Floor.

Welcome to our newest member Kitty. Also, just a reminder that if anyone wants to setup a gaming event or a perk training session you can do so, or send me a chat message if you are not sure how.

Hey everyone! Just wanted to say hey! :)

Welcome to our newest members fel_orc11, FreeGordon, Trishinator, and Babii_Bubu.

Event was ok, only 2 group members plus the Midnight player that some of us know. Anyway we completed Bio Labs (or whatever it is called). It was a close finish with us 3 vs about 6 random joiner player zombies at the end. We held them back and escaped on the helicopter though. Hopefully more group members will join next time. ;)

Dammit, missed te event.

Count me in! ;)

Would anyone be interested in a game anytime soon?

I'm going to see about bringing a few new players to Killing Floor into the group. So, a warm welcome to those that join over the next few weeks.

"Player of the Week" ending Sunday 23rd November goes to *Subie WRX STi* for being the most active group member initiating the Saturday and Sunday games.

Niiice.

Congrats to Hyper_Munchies for completing his SUI map achievements. He is first official group graduate and I hope more will follow in the future. As moderator he will now be able to help other group members. Well done.

"Player of the Week" ending Sunday 4th October goes to *Hyper_Munchies*. He has become very proficient at SUI, in fact he will no doubt be graduating in the near future. Well done!

"Player of the Week" ending Sunday 27th September goes to *Sera* for shielding the team from the big zed's as medic. Also, for doing a fine job as firebug in our dual flare kiting challenge on Moonbase Hell On Earth. I believe it was a new experience for you.

'most players only use the 'medic perk' selfishly for the armor'
Just saying that's a perfectly viable reason to be medic for the first wave (and first wave only) if you don't have firebug at level 6 :P

"Player of the Week" ending Sunday 23rd August goes to *Ori* for his competent medic work over the week. Usually I don't condone a medic for four reasons; firstly a team that is working efficiently enough shouldn't require one, the minimal use of med grenades and deaths signifies we are halfway there now. Secondly, most players only use the 'medic perk' selfishly for the armor and movement speed boost without caring about the team. Ori was not like this, with minimal team deaths and blocking Scrakes/Fleshpounds if required. Thirdly, only a camping bezerker really requires a medic and in doing so you lose two efficient 'projectile' based attackers from the team, if the team also has a demolitions that makes three. Finally, the loss in kills/damage will need to be picked up by others in the team, which could be tough depending on team perk setup, player skill/knowledge, and ammo. Thank you Ori for showing the team what constitutes a good medic.

"Player of the Week' ending Sunday 16th August goes to *Case* for her excellent xbow work on the Scrakes, taking care of them without them raging on the team. Welldone.

Thank you to Aris Boch for going out of his way to organise the use of an InsomniAxe server for our group to play on. Thank you to Blah_ and ©lown for providing the InsomniAxe server. I have promoted Aris Boch to Officer, so if there are any server issues, etc, then please let him know.

We'll have a few guest appearances of HOE players that already have their map achievements but can still help out the group. I will promote them to Moderator rank so you know who they are.
