This was the team formation for round 3 of the Halo 2 Frag Fest was as follows:
Team Damen
Edjamacated Guy
Nibaq
Fadibou
Mark
Team Da Hui
Ozy
Ripping Fabric
Kyon
Ramsey
Results? Out of atleast 10 games we played, Team Damen didn’t even come close to winning a single one! We totally got our asses kicked. Next time we should split up Team Da Hui and mix and match between their team and ours. We are no competition at the moment. The grudge match between Ripping Fabric and Fadibou resulted in Ripping Fabric winning.
