    Update: I have now narrowed my focus to two specific types of maps: paintball maps and mantis battle maps. I'm also now able to give away some Halo swag in exchange for maps! Check out the details here: http://petetheduck.com/forge-for-pete-get-halo-swag/

    Original post:
    I am looking for casual game types and minigames to potentially be featured in a potentially cool thing I am working on.

    I'm going to browsing the forums here to see what has already been posted, but I'm starting this thread asking for suggestions just to help make sure I don't miss anything!

    What exactly am I looking for? Well, it'd be easier to tell you what I'm NOT looking for:

    #1. NO default, unedited, "vanilla" maps/game types.

    #2. NO maps/game types that require honor rules.

    #3. NO maps/game types that require "sitting out" at any time (no lives remaining).

    If you've made or know of a map/game type that isn't excluded by that criteria, I want to know about it!

    Please provide the name of the map/game type and a gamertag from which I can download it/them. Links to threads are always helpful too! Thanks!

    I made a few custom gamtypes for my map Disco Decay that I think would fit into this.

    Oddball variant "Stayin' Alive" is pretty crazy. Everyone spawns with a Needler, bottomless clip, and super speed. The ball carrier is crazy immune to damage, so in an 8 player FFA you end up with everyone just unloading on the ball carrier and him just struttin' his stuff. And it explodes randomly after 30 seconds to make it fair. It's not specific to my map either, I just made it for the playlist so you could probably make better maps for it if you wanted.

    You should probably check out www.youtube.com/oomishday3gaming. Oomish has been making some fun, easy-to-understand minigames so far. Pretty impressive if you consider the lack of interesing gametypes in Halo 4 or customizable options in the present gametypes.
