Forge-Cast Week of March 5th

Greetings, SIR IRON WOLF here, with this week's Forge-Cast.

The floodgates have closed for the Exterm contest submissions, hopefully everyone who wanted in made it in time. Something people might not know though is that you still have one week from the time the submission process closed to work on your map. Ounce the clock strikes 11:59 pm (PST) on March 10th along the pacific coast then hands off of your maps.

iForge and HSFN have a new lobby in the works focused around mini games, currently it seems like it will take place on Saturday nights. For more info about the new lobby check out their post.

This week we are hoping to cast a couple articles out into the open air but are waiting on a couple factors to happen first.


Contest Advisory:
The Extermination Map Contest submission process is over, but you have till this Friday at 11:59 pm (PST) to work on the map you submitted.

DyerSal hosts some Halo Reach lobbies so if you are interested then feel free to get in touch with him and bask in the nostalgia.

Bonus Lobby (Halo 5):
BRUSKY0086 runs a customs lobby in affiliation with iForge and Halo Spark Forge Network. They are two huge communities and they play tons of cool community content! It's a casual environment so bring whatever and play whatever! Message Brusky on XBL for more info!


FORGE-CAST TIP:
If you have a lobby that you want to be in the weekly Forge-Cast then be sure to post it in one of the forums, putting "lobby" in the title, when the lobby is going to be, and what type it is (ie: Testing, customs, or matchmaking).

Be sure to keep your original post updated and edited with any time changes that may occur so it is easier for people to plan to play in your lobby. It also makes it easier for me to get the times right for this article.


This concludes this weeks segment of Forge-Cast. This is SIR IRON WOLF, hoping you all are having fun, saying see you all next week! Forge on, you rascals!
