===History===
'''Community Social Gaming (CSG)''', previously known as ''Halopedia Warz'', was created in 2007 as a collaborative gaming effort by former administrator [http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/User:RelentlessRecusant RelentlessRecusant]. At first Halopedia Warz was a spur-of-the-moment kind of thing, with matches scheduled whenever Relentless was available. Later on Halopedia Warz turned into an internal gaming network where organized teams faced each other in ''[[Halo 2]]'' & ''[[Halo 3]]''. When RelentlessRecusant took an indefinite leave of absence in 2009, the responsibilities were taken up by [[User:CommanderTony|CommanderTony]] and [[User:Spirit-of-HALO|Spirit-of-HALO]] (now known as Killjax) as a way to bring the local gaming community together. Due to time constraints however, Halopedia Warz was put on hiatus.

As you probably all know, '''''[[Halo 4]]''''' will be released worldwide on [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9t060JHOI2k&feature=BFa&list=UU7NCg0venpKJg3kuJojKlbQ November 6th, 2012]. I figured hosting a simple gaming event within ''Halo 4'' would be a fantastic way to celebrate the game's launch. Its a good way to socialize amongst our digital selves and have a little fun. Sounds good, right?

'''''This small yet simple gaming community will be organized accordingly and updated frequently on this page for as long as it is allowed. Differentiating timezones and player availability will also be taken into account when scheduling occurs.'''''
Good news, CSG has reached the minimum count of members needed to continue on as a community project! It may not seem much (at first, hopefully), but it certainty was a surprise, and just in time too... If by the 30th of November we didn't get the required amount of sign-ups we had initially hoped for, we would of had to pull the plug on this whole thing. ''Yeah...'' Spartacus and I are really grateful for your interest here in Community Social Gaming. '''We Really Are.'''
<u>Now on to the good stuff!</u>
We have many things planned for you guys in the near future so we're eager to kick this thing off right away. We have our first "Gaming Event" planned just shortly after ''Halo 4's'' launch. It will be held <u>2 weeks</u> after the game's release on '''Saturday, November 17, 2012'''. Plenty of time to get used to the game and get a handle on some things ''*cough* my aim *cough*''. As for the exact time of day, that is yet to be determined. So in order to establish said time, we need to know where on Earth you live, literally. Ok, not literally, but we do need to know the time-zones you people reside in so we can plan accordingly. If you are still interested in our first Gaming Event scroll down to the Community Roster below and put your username, gamertag, and your timezone by using the format provided.
The Gaming Event '''will be''' a custom game hosted by us, the Community Leaders. We will continue these events for as long as we are still active. We may need help on occasions so keep your eyes open if you would like to help out sometime when one of us is not available (or just lazy). Also to point out, if you're interested in some Spartan Ops and would like to go at it in groups, then send a message to either [[User:Spartacus|Spartacus]] or [[User:Killjax|me]] to have your name and gamertag listed in our Cooperative roster below.
Any questions? Fell free to ask us.
