Okay gang, our pseudo "first" semi-regular gameday is going to kick off with Castle Crashers for the x-box 360. Here's the basic details, they are subject to change:

- Friday the 13th around 6 - 6.5 PM EST until ???? (That's one hour ahead of the general Texas time)
Note: Liz, Mickey, and any other staff with Castle Crashers, if you guys can't make it, pick a more appropriate day/time, Friday seemed to be the most accessible day for everyone based off my poll.

- We'll be playing the game from level 1 to finish, so if you've got all your characters with gold skulls and level 99 you're going to have to make a sacrifice to play with us. :)

- We will ALSO be making a focus on Achievements, so if people are looking for their Conscientious Objector achievement, Kay Eye Ess Ess achievement, or Medic achievement we'll be making efforts to allow you guys to get them.

- One of the MAIN focuses I think, at least for achievement unlocking, is a lot of Arena and Quaff matches. If I understand correctly, the Arena "averages" all the characters to have the same stats so that everything is a fair playing field regardless of your character's level. Maybe we can even have a bit of a tournament? Either way, it'd be nice to have a lot of ranked matches going on some people can make efforts towards the elusive "40 arena wins" and then the "20 quaff wins" which have to be done online.

It's almost a guarantee that we'll be having multiple games running since you can only have 4 people in an average game. We'll do our best to keep things split (IE not all the staff in a single game) so you'll have the opportunity to play with some of the staff as well as other sidekicks and henchmen.

What did I tell you about calling me that?

Sorry, it's a long weekend, friends of mine I haven't seen in two years are coming into town and staying with us. Can't really tell them to scram so I can play.

Sweet this works out perfect I don't know what happened to my save file. All my characters except for a few that I leveled up recently are all at level 1. The only achievements I don't have are the online ranked ones hopefully I can get them.

The save file CAN corrupt online, it has something to do with your gamertag disabling or something or the other. You just need to be careful when loading up games is all.

I had this problem too when I moved my old HD to my new Xbox after my first one died. What you do is when you first start the game sign out of your gamertag. When the game is finished loading and you're at the game select screen sign back in and it should work. DO NOT start playing the game before signing out and in as it will erase your current character save, as I found out the hard way...

The patch that was released a little while ago fixed the issue I had, but looks like you're still suffering from it.

I'm in, but from what I've gathered from playing online is that I suck at the game, so consider yourself warned.
