This week's TGIF will be running on the weekend of April 5th-7th.
Welcome to the 6th TGIF of Halo 4! This article will be out on every other Monday of the weekend these take place, and unlike last time, this TGIF has far less announcement and far less me hosting. Or about the same amount, if you think about it.
Just a quick note: I don't pick and choose hosts. If you ever want to let your weekend game be known on a TGIF week, or would simply like to host for it, PM me your information and we'll have your lobby up on the monday of TGIF! Anyway, enough of me, scroll on down below to see your fine hosts for the weekend.
What's TGIF? It's our biweekly custom game night, where you pick a host's party in advance, show up on the night and play a ton of awesome custom-made maps.
Can't make this date? There's plenty of community custom games being arranged at other times in the Customs Lobby.

TGIF hosts will review the signups in order to determine who will be interested in their party.
You must send the party leader a message on XBL at the start of the party asking for an invite.
This is to secure a position in the party. You will be invited on a first-come, first-serve basis. However, parties will remain open to make joining easier. If you are not able to join and you do not receive an invite, the party is closed. Please do not continuously send messages to hosts.
The following lobbies will take place on the weekend of March 5th-7th.
Elliot's Lobby- Flood Maps of Your Choice

Start Time: 6:00 PM EDT (10:00 PM GMT) Saturday the 6th
End Time: 8:00 PM EDT (12:00 PM GMT)
Rules:
1. Signing up means showing up. If something important comes up, let me know.
2. You may not ask to be promoted to leader. (This does not count for co-hosts.)
3. Players that are in a different party chat or do not have a microphone are more likely to be kicked. Having a mic is a lot more fun for all players, including you, if you can talk with each other and with the host.
