Recap for June 11th Lobby You guys know the deal, post your feedback here. We had a good turnout, played some sweet maps and played some damn close nail bitting games. I'll try and make it back here before I leave for the weekend again, and write a few comments on each map.

Added! Thanks for the continued interest guys, and I am sorry for not adding feedback last week, I was away for some of the week and just busy the rest.
Guess who's BACK. I'm back! WOOT! Now that my summer vacation has started my works hours have been changed and I now have free time during Tuesdays so I will now be able to join you guys every week (or most of them). Feels good to be back and look forward to playing with you guys again. EDIT: Whoops forgot to tell you to sign me up.
Sorry guys something came up last second, real life > video games. I should be back next week, have fun!
TCOJ Recap thread for Tuesday 18/6/2013 We played maps last night. Plenty of close games were had and lots of laughs too. So please, talk about dem maps.
Here we go. Special this week. KAMOHOALII Very good fun all round. Excellent in FFA and a blast for CTF too. The bridges are less dominant than ever and good ordnance placement keeps ppl moving . PARANOIA HILLS The centre structure is well made and although you were concerned about the big hill being OP i found the LOS from and to it blocked very usefully so that you could only see select parts of the map at any given time. Needs bigger teams to shine. ARBORETUM Mine. I like how this is playing. I think I am going to release it very soon. TECTONIC The mighty return of old, old, old, former pro legend hero icon X2SORA. Played awesome my man, apart from that short game of 1-flag that is Flow and spawning were good along with some hotly contested spots. More please ^SORA HIMSELF BUSTIN' SOME CRAZY BODY POPPIN' ****^ VILLAINOUS Fun Slayer games, map movement spread out, no holes in map and it Looks REALLY pretty. I never took the time to appreciate the aesthetics until I went into theatre and it's one of the best looking erosion maps IMO. Do you think however you can integrate green or yellow a little more fully into the map, as it can be frustrating getting pushed back from top over and over. Cover or structure etc. OCTAVE I didn't realise how clever the build is until I went into Theatre and saw it from different perspectives. Octave was probably my favourite map of yours, and is a good example of one of your MM worthy maps. I guess you didn't kiss enough asses to make it in. PASSAGE What a fine CTF map this is. BEAUTIFUL looking, Routes a plenty and great sightlines all round make this competitive and great fun. SORA got on a sick sniping spree and the battle for the dropped flag in the centre of the map was a blast. SALVAGE Epic stuff. Many ways to attack and defend, thoroughly original and competitive. A little perplexing on your first few playthroughs but rock solid on the rest. THATS all for now you guys. Thanks a shitload for turning out everyone who did, Just so you know I still get a real kick from forging and getting good games in with you all. As long as you all wanna play Halo I will be here waiting <3 <3 <3
Thanks for doing this Juanez. Feedback is obviously at an all-time low but it's awesome you took the time - and screenshots, even! What a mensch. TCOJ is going through a dry spell, between Halo 4's population waning, Forge Hub in general having some problems (but hopefully to rebound soon, now that it's changed ownership), and it being summer (always the hardest time of year to get players). Not to mention me being too busy to even attend regularly, let alone run the thing. But I appreciate you guys trying like hell to keep it afloat. It's always a good time.
