The TTL Gunslingers had the pleasure of hosting their 3rd B(ring) Y(our) O(wn) G(ame) Night the evening of February 3rd, 2007. We typically host one allied clan for this event, but this particular BYOG was open to any and all of our friends. The spots filled up quickly and the final roster ended up sporting 6 different clans! The clans represented were The Panic Attacks, O7AH, Winged Warriors, Praetoria Guard, Legion of the Apocalypse, and TTL.

All of the games were extremely enjoyable. The teams were switched up every game so by the end of the night, everybody had played with everybody else and had gotten a chance to get to know each other. Several friends were made and all the participants had their friend’s list expand before the evening was over. The standout hit of the evening was Drizz’s creation, Oh Hasselhoff, which we played 3 times on different maps! BYOG #3 was a huge success and the forums the next day were abuzz with talk afterwards. The common theme from people that had participated was, “When’s the next one?!”. Until then, thankyou to all who participated and helped make the evening as fun and successful as it was!
