Tales from the Foxhole

Arrowhead896

Hi Podtac!
This is Arrowhead896 with a Fail from the Foxhole. Actually, there are two. I was playing Firefight matchmaking with my brother on the Pillar of Autumn map. He respawned and started sprinting to the turret, but a drop pod landed right on him and he was ”Killed by the Guardians”. If that wasn’t crazy enough, the next day I was playing Invasion Slayer on Boneyard with another friend. We’re sitting in the territory waiting for the vehicles and weapons, and then, out of nowhere, the Wraith spawns and lands on him. The moral of the story is: you never know when a chunk of steel is going to land on your head. Keep on fragging trucks falling on people.

Hey Podtacular, Its Giffyboy92 sendin in a couple Noble map pack fails. My first fail tail (see what i did there ;)) takes place on breakpoint near one of the bases. I had rockets, aimed at two guys, missed, One of them had a pro pipe (in this instance it turned into a FAIL pipe). He decided to jump off his perch and get me while i was in armor lock…he missed the invulnerable me (cause i was still in armor lock) hit the wall behind me, and redirected the launched grenade back at himself…killing himself while I sat there watching. Its on my file share and its called ”lol fail.” My second fail tail takes place on Anchor 9 out in space. It was the start of the match I rushed out in space to see who was there goin for rockets. I get out there to see two guys running one after the other for rockets. The first guy picks up the rockets only to be betrayed by the second guy who grabs the n00b tubes off of his dead and now possibly angry team mate. The betraye r runs forward in excitement straight off the map…FAIL,…he’s gonna have a long respawn time…I might have the vid of this one and if i do it will be on my file share shortly. Keep up the good work guys and keep on fraggin all who betray (or shoot at) their team mates who get to the weapon they ”called” before them…This is Giffyboy92 signing off

Monsieur Voyeur

Hey, its me, you know who I am and here is my tale from the fox hole. Once upon a time in September, a game came out and I wrote in plenty of submissions to a certain podcast as did many other members, they were never read unfortunately and said to have never’ve been sent in in the first place, I then told the podcast my story and your-I mean, they’re reading it as we listen. Long story short, where’s all of our submissions guys, we wrote plenty and made sure they sent-
My true tale from the Canus-Lupus Void involves my favorite playlist, SWAT. The yellow and dangerous lift room, occupied by myself and things went sour…for blue team. It began to sound like this, ”BANG-BANG/DOUBLE-BANG/TRIPLE-

BANG/OVER-BANG/KILLTACULA/EXTERMINATION-BANG/KILLTROCIT-BANG/KILLTASTROPH-BANG/KILLAMANJAR-BANG/KILLPOCALYPSE….EXTERMINATION. The best Halo moment I’ve had in ten years with this game, One short of that Killionaire (BriSy) and a double Extermination. It’s safe to say I love the DMR and when I hold it truly turns into a one-shot weapon.
Shout outs to moose, chuck, ej, church, domok and the infamous Jiffyboy- oh and all you lovely hosts, especially you Dustin ;) Catch you on that Noble!
