As Mini Meet didn't run a "round the room" event ran instead, with a particularly good set of jobs.
Job List
Well not quite what I expected after cancelling Mini Meet, and then deciding I could host something after all. Round the room events sure are fun, especially with such a good varied set of jobs...captures are a dying art form in some ways but it's good to see some creators still plugging away and creating them still
Thanks to everyone who attended and hosted!

Job List
- Little Man, Gun in Hand by HiddenSaint27. Great little capture, although I don't think there should be a requirement for bullet proof helmets, I know without this the game would play a bit faster with headshots but I personally like the skill of headshots more...meh personal thing I guess. Anyway after most of my team left them off we ended up losing on kills on 2 of the 3 rounds, with each round going down to a hectic last minute struggle to deliver. Simple symmetric prop arrangement and probably one of the best new captures I've played...sadly it doesn't have much competition for that crown but this job would stand up against stronger competition.
- REAL CO-OP MISSION No. 1 by Lachsack. Cargobobs are back to being real pains to hooking onto them boats
Good job though, reviewed in more detail before. - Paleto Bay Racetrack by BlackDaemon82. Nice track, been done a few times, including by me in the opposite direction. Props were on the track in a number of places and occasionally blocked the view of the upcoming checkpoint and road, such as the container at CP 12.
- Bifta Park by treen24. I've played quite a few of these windmill dodger jobs and they're very hit and miss, much like the windmills themselves. This is comfortably one of the better ones. The initial jump needs a barrier on top as it's far too precise to land and carry on without respawning here. The rest of the course is fantastic, mixing precise driving with a smooth non-stunty start/finish section. Look forward to seeing this improved even as Hidden has a few other good ideas on the night.
- Contend: Up and Down by ajm_agrajag. Hmm this seemed to go down well but the teams were unbalanced so it was hard to see if there were any balance issues. The score finished 8 v 2 - I think due to the close quarters nature of the map it's particularly sensitive to unbalanced team rather than any major fundamental balance issue. At least I hope that's the case as I've tried to make this as symmetric as possible. Rounds were over very quick so may make this 2 rounds by default.
- TITANFALL by GM-HOOT. This killed 2 people's PS3 as it pushes the PS3 to the brink of it's capabilities. All you've got to do is get the Bulldozer to the other side...dodging the falling Titans and alike. The Titans didn't initially fall for some reason but once they do this is good fun. Sticky bombs OP as you can easily stop the slow Bulldozer with them, and there's not too much the other team can do about that. The Cargobob is a nice touch and allows for a quick score of 2 flying between the Titans. Ambitious and good. Will make it into Mini Meet itself at some point (again possibly) as this seemed better than the earlier version (iirc people didn't realise to collect the Bulldozer).
- East Los Santos Racetrack by BlackDaemon82. This was nice from what I remember. No real issues with good checkpoints and props in general. Some could do with some tidying up but I've forgotten which ones.
- Rallycross :Grand Senora by treen24. Really nice Rallycross track, we played in locked cars and this worked well, albeit in non-contact. No issues I could spot and this will be a nice addition to the Rallycross event
- Mobster Tennis by jm_agrajag. Played with 7, seemed to work well and the plentiful height differences making for some nice angles. Some of the respawns are squeezed in a bit which led to one or two spawn kills, but only when players didn't take the nearby cover This was originally going to be a 16 player job but I couldn't get enough good respawns in.
Good job though, reviewed in more detail before. Well not quite what I expected after cancelling Mini Meet, and then deciding I could host something after all. Round the room events sure are fun, especially with such a good varied set of jobs...captures are a dying art form in some ways but it's good to see some creators still plugging away and creating them still
