Posted - Feb 04 2010 : 3:43:01 PM Gears of War is and always will be a tough game to boost.. different incarnations of a boosting group have been in exsistence for quite some time, some collapsing due to lack of interest other to lack of communication, but all that is now behind us as we enter in to a new era of GEARS BOOSTING!
I have invisioned putting together multiple boosting groups so that at any time anyone of us in these groups can come together and get extra sessions in if we want to. Meaning the core teams will be meeting at least once a week for however many sessions they want for that night. If you want to do other days with your group then go for it, but say only 3 of those members want to do extra days they can contact any of the other members for any other days, except the days the core groups are schedualed.
Teams should be broken down in to 6 (the minimum required gamers for achievemetns to count), this will also allow the maximum number of kills for each player. (Around 33 per player) If you choose to allow more gamers in then your group will be up to 8 people and kills would go down significantly. (Around 18 per person) The only good thing about that is that you can loose up to 2 gamers and the match and kills still count toward achievements.
Once these groups are set up and running it will be the responsability of those group memebers to stay in contact and show up for these sessions and to let others know if they will be late or won't make it..please be certious to your fellow gamers.
If one or more teams boost the same night then it would also elieviate the possibility of randoms (though those are bound to incure) Meaning IF everyone agrees to it and your all doing the same maps you can switch out between teams!!
This is also a great way to network and find others with games you have in common to complete!
IF you have a TEAM and are not sure how to effectivly boost contact me(B8TINGU) and I will gladly explain and or show you how to in a game. Kills need to be done in certain matches types (Warzone to be absolutly sure)and it must be RANKED or they don't count toward achievements. (THEY CANNOT BE DONE IN ANNEX)
You must have at least 6 players present the entire match. MEANING: If you have 6 gamers and you lose a player and then only have 5 gamers in the match, the entire match and all kills will not count toward any achievements.
Be aware the game itself is sorta glitchy. Weapons often take more than 100 kills to unlock achievemetns and don't expect seriously to pop the moment you hit 10,000 kills either.
Here is a link to an awesome guide as to how to boost this properly. here: http://www.trueachievements.com/a15399/seriously--achievement.htm?showguides=1 (follow McDurbin's guide with video!)
************************EDIT********NEW INFO*************************
Please read the whole post to understand.
Looking for gamers for Sunday's thru Saturday's to start boosting SERIOUSLY? Well ceck here! Here are some Guide lines I used Please feel free to use ehm as they weork very well. Of course you can alsways add more this was just for the busy/time orintaed people.
Minimum of (3) 19 round matches 35 min. average(with weapons kills/achievements) and one shorter match to get at least 100 kills per day. This will average just under two hours, again that's with weapons kills, when all weapons kills are complete average match takes 21 minutes or less.
ALL of these types of ACHIEVEMENTS can be done if needed: Weapons kills, Hosting matches, Highest score.
DLC win 20 mp. matches of 3+ rounds in any game type can be done byyourself on one X-box with two controllers. Certain weapons can only be found on certain maps. So to obtain all Weapons achievements you will need to cycle thru afew different maps at times.
ANNEX SHOULD NOT BE DONE! (as none of it counts towards any achievement)
This is for serious and dedicated boosters only. If you can commit to just one day a week that better than nothing. Having a working headset and being in the party is not required, but certainy makes things funner! No Show No Messages will be replpaced after 10min.
This is a long term commitment. If/when you get the ACHIEVEMENT you will not be needed and can leave the group.. no need to keep you when there are lots of gamers still wanting to work on this and no one will think any less of you.
If you can not make sessions on a regular basis, you will be replaced at the groups disgretion.
Groups go in alphabetical order unless other wise stated. COG's always kill first.. Just to keep things simple.
Start Times are:
At your discretion.
If you don't show up or message anyone 10 min after posted start times, you will be replaced for that nights sessions. It's only fair as this is a group thing.
If you have any questions please feel free to post them in this thread. PM me here or on LIVE. The following is a list of gamers that have expressed interest in a TEAM and or being alternates. Please feel free to contact any of these gamers directly and start your own TEAM! TAKE THE INITIATIVE! (cause if you don't you may miss out)If you do please let me know I'll add you to the TEAM section above! * names will reamin on this thread until you ask me to be removed.
1. Elmo Teh AzN 2. FireRiegnDeath 3. ToxiicXDucky831 4. XxSCREAM89xX 5. Van Hooligan X 6. Truckcapt 7. MFresh69 8. kingrich06 9. ADmanONFIRE 10. chupamama 12. KSI Mikado1977 13. JB330 14.

Or if anyone else is interested in GEARS OF WAR 1 Boosting you may use this thread and it's persoanage to help get a team started, or express your intresest as being an alternate.
TEAMS will no longer be updated aon this thread, you will have to put togeteher a team ans keep track of them for yoursevles, I call it tough love..lol.. but it does seem the only way people will geet together. There must be some sort of group leader whom pushes and keep control otherwise the group is in danger of falling apart.
** UPDATE: This first posting now includes a listing of gamers (by Gamertag) taken directly from this thread. That's more than enough to start 6 distinct Teams.****
** This thread will be update only one more time by myself as I have completed the game. This thread will mainly stay in tact as I feel it's still a good tool for boosting GEARS. Only information refering to me personally will be changed.
** This post has been updated as of 12/08/10 to reflect as much knowledge as I can put forth. I have completed this game but I still feel this is good information and can be used by anyone. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me personally: here in this thread, on my profile here or on LIVE.
**I will always lend a hand when able and want to thank everyone who have helped not only me but all these other geat boosters too.****
Happy gaming! |

To answer your question...Personaly I am not. As I have stated in my original postings. I believe jsut by quickly browsing the names, most everyone here is also done with it too, but don't let that discourage youThis site and a few others are still great for getting like minded gamers together.
Either start your own thread or get some watchers and start networking.. this is a great bunch of gamers here.
Another fine site for you to get involved at is TA short for truachievments.com or better yet check me out at this link.
http://www.trueachievements.com/B8TINGU.htm

Posted - Dec 22 2010 : 1:44:57 PM After many months the last member of our core group that started boosting back in Feb has gotten his achievement. This in essence brings our participation in the Mon & Tue sessions to an end. We have had many people fill in slots during this time and they are still working on this achievement.
For these people I would like to keep the Mon & Tue sessions going. I'm willing to help organize it, but I would like to pass the baton off to someone that is committed and willing to lead the sessions moving forward.
Here is a list of people that I know are still working on the achievement:
1. ToxiicXDucky831 2. kingrich06 3. chupamama 4. KSI Mikado1977 5. Shinobi Hanzo 6. BFDragon 7. Synjin Savant2 8. moexu 9. george21000 10. EnemyBritBomber 11. RadarBoy 12. SmokenRocket 13. N1GHTMAREB4XMAS 14. Cipher Complex 15. EarthboundX 16. UliUdo 17. PvtCaboose32
I'm sure the list will expand. Post or message me on XBL if you are interested.

Posted - Nov 15 2010 : 3:33:14 PM I was coming to post something like this as well. I sent messages to the Th group as I don't know if they are still boosting, but I know W/F/Su have died. I'm going to try and set up new groups based on user interest. It sounds like we have at least 4 of the old Sunday group still around, but if anyone is interested in boosting W/F/Su, or Th if they aren't active any more, please shoot me a message on LIVE, or I'll try to keep checking this thread. |

Posted - Nov 15 2010 : 11:13:07 AM I'm still up for Sunday nights. Just let me know when we have enough people again. |

Posted - Nov 15 2010 : 08:08:03 AM The Sunday Boosting group has kind of disappeared. So moexu and radarboy are looking for reliable boosters for Sunday nights. Let me know if you are definitely in.
Sessions start around 8pm (CST) - We usually try to run through about 4 matches.
Thanks. |

Posted - Sep 03 2010 : 2:48:41 PM I can do Friday for sure. Thursday could be a possibility as well. |

Posted - Sep 03 2010 : 11:26:45 AM Ok then the first page had a big update ans some edidting to reflect the current situation.
@ All: Will be putting you in to slots so you can see progress and will be sending messages and Friend request in the next few days, hope to get his going for next week. If I don't have enough in the next few days I will start activly recruting form the list or if anyone has any reliable gamers that want to do this let them/me know ASAP.
@ xMac Sorry I would have used yours, but I couldn't copy or paste on this site?? weird.. I aslo have a set format anyway.. lol..
@ Mr.Gompers.. cool
@ Tbonephone.. you last message made it clear to me that you wanted out of Wends. for good..I thought it was due to the lack of actual boosting time, so it was understandable. You're a good guy and good booster so I will add you to Fri. and if a Wends. spot opens again I'll let you know. |
| TBonePhone |
Posted - Sep 02 2010 : 11:17:01 PM I can jump in the Friday night group, and let me know if you need a backup for Wednesday, I was just out that one week cause I didn't realize you were starting already |
| moexu |
Posted - Sep 02 2010 : 9:49:08 PM I can do Fridays and Saturdays. Just working on kills is fine. |
| B8TINGU |
Posted - Sep 02 2010 : 6:05:31 PM @ Mr. Gompers.. The 20+ achievements will not be done to full.. I only stated that it COULD be worked on if we need that map for a certain Weapon or if sor some reason we need to chose an alternate map due to too many people being on.. but I highly doubt that.
OR.. if the group really really really wants to work on a certain, map .. but it had to be a majority rule.

And, put me in the new Thursday, Friday, and Saturday groups. too.
(B8TINGU, feel free to copy and paste this list into your post to help manage the people who express interest)
THURSDAY 1. xMac73 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
FRIDAY 1. xMac73 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
SATURDAY 1. xMac73 2. MrGompers 3. 4. 5. 6.
Thanks for putting this together. I've been looking for a reliable group to join. Due to my work schedule only Sat nite's will work for me. If you go past 11pm EST during the week I mite be able to join and fill in someone's spot if someone wants to leave early.
I seek these cheese mints only - torque bow, boom shot, host 50 matches, seriously. ( I have about 1,000 kills already)
I know seriously is a long term cheese mint, but it's so boring I don't think I would want to play more than 2 hours a week anyway.
Send a FR when you have time.
PS The win 20 mp matches on DLC maps can be done with 2 controllers. I would remove that cheese mint from these sessions. |

Looking for gamers for Thursdays, Fridays & Saturdays to start a group or multiple groups to start boosting SERIOUSLY at 6pm western time. Minimum of (3) 19 round matches 35 min. average(with weapons kills/achievements) and one shorter match to get at least 100 kills per day. This will average just under two hours, again that's with weapons kills, when all weapons kills are complete average match takes 22 minutes.
ALL ACHIEVEMENTS will be done if needed. Weapons kills, Hosting matches, Highest score.
DLC win 20 mp. matches of 3+ rounds in any game type can be worked on but this is not the focus of the group.
ANNEX WILL NOT BE DONE!
I'm looking for series and dedicated boosters only. If you can commit to just one of these days, that is fine. If you can commit to multiple days that is fine too.
This is a long term commitment. If you get the ACHIEVEMENT you will not be needed and can leave the group.. no need to keep you when there are lots of gamers still wanting to work on this and no one will think any less of you.
If you can not make sessions on a regular basis, you will be replaced at the groups disgretion.
