So this is something I've been interested in doing for a while. For those who don't know, the Noxcrew Gameshow is a series currently in production where the Noxcrew invite popular youtube minecrafters to participate in a series of mini-games in teams of 3. Here's the first episode:
Skip to 6:25 for the action.
The Noxcrew have also been kind enough to make the minigames available in downloads, meaning you can play them in teams of 3. As I said, I've been interested in doing this for a while, and this thread serves to organize at least one round of map-playing. I'd like to start with Map Pack 3, and then later we could try Packs 1 and 2, along with any future packs that come out. I'm open to either having someone host this map on their server or requesting and AdventureLobbies server and whitelisting everyone who signs up. For a timeframe, I'd like to try this today or tomorrow if possible, and we'll need everyone in sync for it to go as planned.
If this sounds fun to you, please sign up below. Let me know your Minecraft username if you think I don't already, along with which team you'd like to be on. If you don't care about which team you are on, I'll choose for you. As an added bonus, I'll reply to you with an updated version of your current skin that will include the team color overlay that the Noxcrew has also provided. It's optional that you use these, however I highly suggest it, both for team identification and the coolness factor.
Participants:
Current Blue Team:
dragonsrule9 AgentTaladon NewEpsilon
Current Yellow Team:
DarkStarDC12 Shardna Kitty4President
I hope to play Blocksketball with five of you soon.
Ah yes, here's what my skin looks like with the color overlay added.

And Kitty snags final spot on the Yellow Team. Here's your skin: https://i.servimg.com/u/f42/17/42/54/77/kittys10.png
Seeing as we have everyone we need, I'll start and see if the AdventureLobbies will co-operate with me. If it doesn't, we may have to delay the games until we find a host.
EDIT: IT'S UP! Join: 216.172.106.11:25575
We've got five hours, but if we don't join soon, the server will close down.
EDIT2: I have somehow managed to goof it up. The map we got seems to be a regular survival seed, and I can't find where we're supposed to be.
EDIT3: Alright, as Eps has suggested, we'll put this on hold until the weekend, as I can't start another Lobby today because of restrictions with the AdventureLobbies service, and as hopefully more people will be available then. Please let me know if you won't be able to make it on this weekend.

I think it's hilarious to see the situation progress from good to bad to worse. It sounds like a mayday.

It was pretty much doomed to fail since I'm typing this from school right now. Drago you silly, I didn't know we were starting this STRAIGHT AFTER I joined. :U

Anyone who is interested can still sign up, you'll just be put on a waiting list for next time we do this. Also, if anyone is willing to host these maps, I would strongly prefer that over wrestling with AdventureLobbies. If we do get a host, anyone who can't participate will be able to spectate when other games are going on.

I'll see what I can do about hosting, I've got my own server setup for Tekkit, I can close that one down and host a different one for the noxcrew if you like. Be prepared though, sometimes the server just fails and kicks everyone but keeps running. I think that may have something to do with Tekkit, and hopefully it won't do that for a normal MC server.

Thanks for volunteering, tala. If possible, I'd like to try and test out how well your server handles hosting this map, preferably before the weekend.

So tala and I tested out the map on his server, and it works like a charm. Now what remains is setting a specific time (if possible), and having you all watch the annotations in this video.
Clicking on each of the four boxes will bring you to four different videos that explain the layout and rules for the chosen minigame. I suggest you look at them and understand them.
As for time, I use EST (GMT - 4:00 I believe) and I have nothing blocking me from participating any time Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Let me know if any particular time doesn't work for you.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to do blockset ball and a bridge to far...BUT! Picture panic and sands of time looks easy enough in my case! Timewise I'll be here till half six pm but should return around after eight-ish (as I'm needed for something). Unsure about tomorrow but I might be able to make it Sunday.

Alright, if all the required people show up, we should be playing the gameshow today. Any objections? If not, it would be smart for you to change your skins to the new ones I've provided. We won't be starting any time soon, but just best to get it out of the way.
EDIT: And if you haven't yet, watch the rules in the video a few posts up.

It's been pushed back to another time. Drago had to leave, unfortunately.

Seeing as I'm on vacation, I can't make a decent post with this Playbook, but is there a way that I can get a spot on a team, if a third team forms? I'll be able to respond fully and stuffs on August 4tb. Ill also send you my skin on that day, if a team is able to be formed.

Uh
Hate to burst your bubble there Bean, but a third team in these games would be like putting a third team in TF2. Pointless, unbalanced, and REALLY unessecary. Plus, these sports look like they are designed for 2 teams only.
If you did want to join, we could maybe add one person to both teams so we have 4 instead of 3, but we'd need one more player to do so.

Sorry, never knew. Only got to watch 1 minute of the video. And I also don't have the whole idea in my head. I need my computer, this damn thing has a problem with YouTube. I guess having 4 people on a team would work. If it doesn't, I don't mind not playing. I guess I could just watch. :P
