<title>Dick Winters dies; WWII hero commanded 'Band of Brothers'</title>
<link>http://www.the-mythicals.com/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;t=13#13</link>
<description><![CDATA[Dick Winters, a decorated Army officer whose World War II service was recounted in the best-selling book and HBO mini-series &amp;#x22;Band of Brothers,&amp;#x22; died Jan. 2. News reports listed his age at 92.<br />
<br />
Based on the 1992 book by historian Stephen E. Ambrose, the HBO mini-series came out in 2001 and was produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg.<br />
<br />
The story follows the tragedies and triumphs of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 2nd Battalion, E Company.<br />
<br />
To Mr. Winters, these citizen-soldiers came to be known as the men of Easy Company -- paratroopers who jumped into combat on June 6, 1944 above Normandy, France.<br />

<title>Selection Criteria</title>
<link>http://www.the-mythicals.com/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;t=11#11</link>
<description><![CDATA[1: MINIMUM age requirement:<br />
<br />
We believe that recruiting younger players is not a good idea. We will not recruit anyone below the age of 18 to the clan, although attaining this &#x22;magic&#x22; number is by no means a guarantee of decent behaviour we have found its not a bad starting position - exceptions can and have been made for the right individuals however, so if you have proven yourself in our servers let us know who you are... you never know.<br />
<br />
<br />
2: Participation and investment to the clan: <br />
<br />
All members should have a good inclination to invest time and effort into making the clan a WORTHY investment. The clan is only worth what its members are and is a representation of the time they put in-So the better we as members can be, the more satisfying and rewarding the clan will be. The more we as a clan do together the closer, and more adept we will be at working together. Teamwork is the best way to get things done. To forego yourself to help another is the base of loyalty. The clan who does together, stays together.<br />
<br />
<br />
3: PERSONAL BEHAVIOR: <br />
<br />
All members should act as if every Action they take is a representation of the clan, and every word they speak is true. We all have problems, and we all have those &#x22;Special&#x22; someones we love to hate. Clan chat should be peaceful, respectful, and leisurely. Drama is not required. we should all have at least a touch of respect for every member. Mutual respect is a cornerstone of a good community. likewise, as stated above, put aside your small differences and put someone before yourself, it builds trust and loyalty. If you have a problem with a person not in the clan, take it up with them, NOT on the servers - you risk making a fool of yourself, or humiliating yourself and others, in the process. <br />
<br />
4: Clan Chat: <br />
<br />
we may have young and old, Proper and not-so-proper folks in the clan. Not everyone speaks as &#x22;colorful&#x22; as some. keep the unneeded profanity and inappropriate chatter to a minimum. beware of whos around you when you feel the need to let it out, and have respect for others' virtual personal space]]></description>

<title>Mythicals Clan Guidelines</title>
<link>http://www.the-mythicals.com/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;t=10#10</link>
<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">[RESPECT FELLOW CLAN MEMBERS]</span> <br />
Please show respect to other members in the games and also on teamspeak. Having fun with each other is fine but being rude or insulting to another member will not be allowed. How the group gets along is our first concern , causing problems within the group will get you removed from the clan. <br />
<br />
[<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">CHEATING/HACKING</span>] <br />
Cheating and hacking will be not allowed. If you get caught doing this on a server and that gets you banned, then that ban will stand. If you are bored with a game then take a break from the game that you are playing. There is no reason to EVER cheat or hack within a game. Even if a player has been playing for us for years he will still be treated the same as anyone else regarding hacking/cheating. <br />
<br />
[<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">CHEAT ACCUSATIONS</span>] <br />
Please do not accuse others of cheating this just upsets everybody in the server and labels the clan as whiners and bad losers. If it is blatantly obvious that someone is cheating then report it to the server admin who will take whatever steps are necessary. <br />
<br />
[<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">RESPECT OTHER SERVERS</span>] <br />
Please show respect in other clan servers i.e no spamming of our website, email address and no recruiting. We do not allow other clans to do it in our server so why should they. If someone asks you in game about joining then pass them the website address but do not go in to another clan server and just start recruiting. <br />
<br />
[<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">RESPECT OTHER CLANS</span>] <br />
Please show respect in other clans and clan servers. Do not go into another clan server or on our server and bad mouth or make fun of another clan. <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">[LIMITING FOUL LANGUAGE]</span> <br />
Please, when on servers limit the foul language. On teamspeak we are all mature and can handle it. But foul language directed to another member on teamspeak for the purpose of attacking that person will not be allowed. On the servers there are probably kids playing, we are not their parents but it is still nice to have a server that is generally friendly without reading a lot of swearing. <br />
<br />
[<span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">INACTIVE PLAYERS</span>] <br />
All players returning from a spell of inactivity must report to the relevant admin or clan leader when you would like to resume clan duty, please keep in mind that when or if you decide to return from inactivity with the flow of players coming and going etc. your spot may have been taken and you will not be able to resume where you have left off , this form of action should make it clear to all players where they stand when they resume from inactivity i.e before you go inactive and you were a regular match player, going inactive leaves us a man down from the regular set up, someone else moves in and does well. It would be hard to remove that player hence you will have to wait for your turn again, making it fair for all parties involved. This goes for all clan duties again if a player takes over what you was doing, please don't expect to return and carry on where you left off. <br />
<br />
--AFTER ALL YOU WENT INACTIVE, THE MEMBER NOW DOING YOUR DUTIES DIDN'T--]]></description>

<title>8 reasons why you suck at Blackops</title>
<link>http://www.the-mythicals.com/modules.php?name=Forums&amp;file=viewtopic&amp;t=9#9</link>
<description><![CDATA[<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Your doing it wrong</span></span><br />
<br />
Let’s face it: When one player sucks in Call of Duty: Black Ops multiplayer, the whole team suffers.  And if you don’t realize which guy on the team sucks – well, you know how that old adage goes, right? So I thought I'd put out an announcement to polarize the issue. Here are eight things a majority of players do that make them worse instead of better. Yes, some great players out there will probably disagree with these strategies – but we probably wouldn’t want to play with you. And yes, people make dozens of other mistakes as well. These are the eight we’re going to work on for now.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://www.the-mythicals.com/uploadimages/noobtube.jpg" /><br />
If you can only score when rocking the noob tube, keep reading – we can help<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Reason #8 – You think you're Super Mega Sniper Elite</span></span> <br />
<br />
We see you out there trying to be all stealthy, creeping around really slowly pretending that if you move like some hot-stuff Commando nobody will see you. We know why you’re doing it – because that's how it works in the movies. But video games don't work like that.. While you see yourself moving with the utmost precision, as slowly and stealthily as a mighty jungle cat, everyone else sees you creeping along like a sitting duck, possibly with your gun barrel glitching through the wall and your legs dancing wildly as they constantly realign.<br />
<br />
How to fix it: Move quickly (but don’t sprint – more on that later) and with purpose or not at all. If you're going to try to go stealth, stop moving entirely or move quickly, then stop. The human eye is trained to see motion, and in a game like Black Ops the frenetic action will often make it tough to see anything that isn't moving. Get into position, then stop fidgeting. If you have to move, do it in one swift motion to reduce the chance anyone will catch you moving.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://www.the-mythicals.com/uploadimages/sniper.jpg" /><br />
You are not this guy. Get over it<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Reason #7 – You never stop reloading</span></span><br />
<br />
After you win a gunfight, you reload right away. Don’t do that. We've lost count of how many idiots we've picked off right after their fight because they started reloading immediately after the fight was over. Shooting attracts other enemies, particularly live ones you haven’t shot yet. And reloading makes you completely defenseless for a few precious seconds. If you get caught, you're toast. How many bullets do you think it takes to kill somebody anyway? You don't need 30 bullets in the clip to take somebody out.<br />
<br />
How to fix it: Make sure you're safe before reloading. If you've just unloaded on some fool, it's likely somebody heard the shots and is coming to mop up the leftovers. They're probably even hoping you're silly enough to start reloading immediately. Head around the corner and duck behind a dumpster or something.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Reason #6 – You don’t use what you brough</span>t</span><br />
<br />
Why make your poor avatar schlep out onto the battlefield carrying a ridiculous load of ammunition and firearms, and then never even use it? Why outfit yourself with a load of flashbangs, a grenade, a rocket launcher, and an underbarrel grenade launcher if all you're going to do is fire off a little pea shooter? If you brought it, use it. Seriously, what’s the harm in tossing a flashbang into a room you think might have an enemy inside. We know, you're thinking, “But I might need it later!” You won’t. If you don’t use it now, there might not even be a later. The average CoD lifespan is probably around 20-30 seconds, so make the most of it.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://www.the-mythicals.com/uploadimages/guns.jpg" /><br />
You will only ever use one of the 29 guns strapped to your body<br />
<br />
How to fix it: Chuck your grenades, and launch your rockets. You'll respawn with more anyway. If they save your life, great. If you're going to die anyway, those pieces aren't going to stop that, but if you use them early, you might just get an extra kill or two out of the deal.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Reason #5 – You're impatient</span></span><br />
<br />
We promise you there will still be people left to kill if you take five seconds to get into position rather than three seconds. So stop sprinting everywhere, you maniac. This goes along with number seven in the “stop getting yourself killed” category. Sprinting is another one of those risky activities that leaves you defenseless long enough to get fragged. It's a subtle difference, but the simple lag time in getting your gunsights up after running is more than enough time to leave you waiting to respawn, and we promise that will take up more of your time than if you'd walked.<br />
<br />
How to fix it: Be patient. If you even slightly expect there to be enemies nearby, just walk. Sprinting should be reserved for the opening of the match, crossing areas you know an enemy is sniping, and moving through zones you know to be safe (ideally based on spy plane reconnaissance).<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Reason #4 – Your life means too much</span></span><br />
<br />
Most game types in Black Ops have absolutely nothing to do with kills, and yet without fail every match (of any game type) will include at least a couple people who jealously guard their mortality as though they were the last scion of an ancient monarchy. Staying alive is cool and all; rack up enough kills and you'll get killstreak rewards that can help your team win the match. But if you have no kills, or you've already received your killstreak rewards (we’re looking at you, sniper fetishists) then get yourself into the action and use your gear so you can do some damage, die and respawn with more gear.<br />
<br />
How to fix it: Stop worrying so much about whether you survive. It takes all of five seconds to get back to the fight after respawning, and you get a bunch of useful stuff when you do it too. Unless it's a small team game, it's borderline narcissistic to think your whole team will collapse if you aren't alive for three seconds.<br />
<br />
<img src="http://www.the-mythicals.com/uploadimages/zombies.jpg" /><br />
Death isnt the end, theres always the zombie afterlife<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Reason #3 – Your life means too little</span></span><br />
<br />
In direct contrast to the mooks described in number four, there are always people (mostly in Team Deathmatch) who fail to realize that their deaths are contributing to the enemy score. You can see it happen. The same people will respawn right next to you and then sprint out onto the battlefield as quickly as possible, only to return to the respawn point mere moments later. You're not just getting yourself killed, you're bringing down the entire team with your impatient, sprint-y nonsense.<br />
<br />
How to fix it: We get it. Sometimes the match just doesn't go your way. There are a thousand reasons why you might be having a bad match. That's totally OK. But the way to turn the match around is NOT too repeatedly rush blindly into the meat grinder as fast as you can. The other team is better than you, and you need to take steps to mitigate their higher skill level. Stay low. Move more slowly. Stick with teammates. Stay out of the action so your bad game doesn't cause a loss for the entire team. And watch the movie Gallipoli, for God’s sake.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Reason #2 – You use assault rifles for everything</span></span><br />
<br />
What would you think about a man who owned a grocery store and yet only ever ate dry rice? Sure, it keeps him sustained, but damn if it's uninteresting. So why, when you have the option to use dozens of different type of weapons, would you choose to use a bland assault rifle for every possible circumstance? What good will it do to have you guarding a point in an objective-based game with a gun that needs four bullets to bring down a target. Odds are you'll be dead before you can count that high.<br />
<br />
How to fix it: Think critically about what you're going to be doing and experiment with new things depending upon the situation. If you're going to be defending something, you'll probably be better off with a shotgun at short range. Or maybe a sniper rifle if you've got time to set up a perch somewhere far off. If there's lot of thin cover nearby, pick up an LMG. If it's mostly tight corridors, come packing an Uzi. You'll win far more often when you're dressed for the occasion.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: normal">Reason #1 – You mindlessly assault Point B</span></span><br />
<br />
It's almost sickening to see how many people throw their lives away trying to take or retake point B in Domination. It's in the middle of the level for a reason, folks. It's supposed to be really tough to take. Points A and C are far easier to assault on most levels, yet you continue to throw yourselves at B as though it did something special.<br />
<br />
How to fix it: Each position gives the same amount of points. Spread the love. If the enemy is focused on B, use one of the many back roads to sneak around and take A or C. Your team will get more points, and you're far more likely to be able to take the middle point once the enemy has retreated to try to regain what you just took.<br />
<br />
