We're still going strong, and there's plenty more evening to come. The booze is flowing and the matches are heating up...literally - our 360's better no🦋t red ring.

Charlie "Bearhat" Barratt, you may have noticed, really likes the Estate map. Bre🐬tt Elston, on the other hand, really likes c🍸ranberry lemonade.

A bunch of us tried to make it toa secret location on Highrise that Robert Bowling, Infinity Ward's C🐈ommunity Manager, showed us during a preview event. Mostly we just flew into the abyss over and over, so we eventually decided to just take a group photo on the helipad. Of course it was constantly interrupted by the one guy who decidesstick aSemtex to the center of the group.
