lancerr47

Hey Podtacular its me lancerr47. I have a quick story for tales from the
foxhole. I was playing Narrows Multi team oddball. I saw two guys fighting
against each other. So I shot at them and I got a double kill. I turned to
my left and I saw another guy. I started shooting at him but I had to
reload. Then i looked at the ground and saw the odd ball on the floor. I
walked up to him while he was shooting at me , still reloading, my shields
were down and i thought i was going to die. Then I picked up the odd ball
and hit him with it for a triple kill. But then almost half a second later
someone killed me. So keep on Fragging Trucks and killing N00Bs that don’t
use Mozilla to check their spelling with the Special Assault rifles.

JGW Antwon

Hey guy this is my first time submitting. I was playing duals on guardian
and I just spawned on the sniper side. I go up top and grab some stickies,
then jump into the middle, while I’m in midair I see an elite coming out of
the blue room headin down the ramp. I use one of those stickies, easy
stick. Right before the elite explodes I see two more guys, I chuck a
sticky at them, and I stick the ground behind the front guy. As I stick
ground I realize there were three reds all together on that spot. I would
have probably only gotten a triple kill but a guy in the back threw a frag
grenade weakening them all, so in the end they all got killed from the
explosion and I got the extermination. The clip is in my file share named
amazing exterm.

Keep on fraggin the little annoying kids who take the missle pod then turn
around and blow up the team!

P.S. if you were wondering what JGW standed for, it’s Just Got Wrecked.

Keep up the good work on the podcast!

PunxsatownyPhil

Hey Podtacular Crew! I’m PunxsatownyPhil ( pronounced
Punks-uh-town-ee-Phil), a first time submitter, and I have a tale from the
foxhole.

Me and my friend, Quigs4494, were playing one-bomb in custom games
with two guys we were playing matchmaking with, so it was 2v2, which
actually works well on my Dragon map, a cool map on Avalanche. Here’s a
little background on it: You have to plant the bomb in the dragon. The
only way in is a teleporter under the dragon that that goes to a man cannon
that launches you into the Dragon’s mouth. It’s really not confusing when
you see it. So my friend was driving the mongoose, and I was on the back
with the bomb. We were driving towards the teleporter, when one of the Red
Team guys jumps off one of the Dragon’s arm. He fires a rocket at our
Mongoose, and blows it up. Our bodies fly in a synchronized manner under
the Dragon. Ten feet behind it, our corpses simultaneously bash headfirst
into two different trees. We ended up winning when the two guys on the
other team decided to randomly quit near the end.
Here’s the video of the crash:

Shout out to Quigs4494 and Astronaut31

In Soviet Russia, trucks frag YOU!!

Okay, keep on fragging the anus armor of Trucks carrying green feathered
Alpacas with Special Assault rifles, being driven by Nay- Nay and Hairy
Yetis.
How’s that for spelling and grammar

Auron62

Hey podtacular it’s Auron62 (gamertag: Auron V3) for another long
submission (possibly). So Imagine this, your playing team splasers on
sandtrap and 3 people start to form a a line. Well if your me in about 3
seconds they would be demolished, which is exactly what I did. So pretty
self-explanitory, the people lined up and as they saw some “odd” red dot
pointing at them. So as I shot the splaser 2 people immediatly ran into
the laser, but the odd person on his team with his ‘bug-like’ instinct ran
into the glowing red radioactive beam called the spartan laser. As they all
died the medals didn’t know what to do. In all I got a triple kill and a
killing spree.

Also my friend KayoT9 got a killionare in grifball. (Really short
sentence)

Keep up the good work Dust Storm, Cryptoflix, and [insert guest name
here]. Now for ultimate keep on fragging statement!

Keep on fragging 3 armed 1 legged purple belly squirell who wear anus
armor while shooting the special assult rifle at nub cakes that who keep
team-killing.

l ninjaman59 l

Hey Podtacular, Dust Storm, Cryptoflix, Glewis(?). This of course is the
ninja with a plan, Ninjaman. Anyway, my tale from the foxhole was at the
start of my Xbox Live fun. It was on High Ground. I was walking down to the
beach and I saw the whole other team. Three people where on foot, one had a
sniper, and another was in a ghost. So, of course I start to A.R. someone
and I kill him, then I pick up his sniper. I see the other two people I
shoot at one of them and miss. Then, I shoot again and I no-scope him and
get a double kill. Now I know what your saying “Oh, you no-scoped a guy,
whooptey doo!” But, here is where the weird part comes in. When I
no-scope him, his teammate randomly dies. I think that it was the ghost
that killed him and gave me my triple kill. If the way I explained it
confused you then go to my file share and download “WHAT???!!!!” My
gamertag is I ninjaman59 I. Shoutouts to lilkuke, Uzimaki15, Wipacer, and
every other Podtacular member on my freindslist. This is the ninja with a
plan, see you later guys.

1nfiniteSingularity

Long story. Some of you will remember Assassin073, well this is me. My old
account played up on me, and so I created this account. My GT is still
Assassin073

Hereis my one in a million overkill
I was in Lone wolves on Blackout. I had a BR and a Sniper, and I dropped
from top snipe to under glass (bottom middle above shotgun), and there was
a guy with a sword on the left ramp, and another guy on the other side of
under glass. I no scoped the guy with the sword with a bodyshot, dropping
his shields, and then I moved over to lift room. I switched to my BR and
tossed a grenade which got stuck under one of the stairs. It exploded,
scoring me a bulltrue save. I then heard a plasma grenade exploding (not
mine) and I got a double kill. I then switched over to my Sniper and moved
back into under glass, no scoping a guy coming from bottom snipe, and then
I got an assassination on bottom snipe for the overkill.

What happened with my double is that my grenade I threw damaged the second
guy slightly, and he had thrown a plasma grenade at the sword guy. It
exploded just after my frag grenade exploded killing the other guy. His
plasma exploded, and he killed himself, but I scored the double.

If you don’t understand or want to see my ownage for yourself, don’t
hesitate to download it from my fileshare (GT Assassin073) slot 3. I also
submitted it for the Pod TV top 10 show, so if it’s up there, be sure to
check it out.

Keep on throwing fag grenades (frag without the ‘r’).

Lone Soldier332

What’s up Podtacular. It’s Lone Soldier332 again with another Tale From Le
Foxhole.

I was playing Tsavo Highway, trying to get the skulls on that level. I got
to the point where you go into the small water-filled canyon, and we
engaged the Covenant. I was ready to splatter a Grunt, but he jumped out of
the way. Naturally, he said a few choice words, including “Demon,”
“Food-nipple,” and “Grenade!” I swerved my Warthog, trying again, but immediatly evaded a plasma
grenade. To my suprise, a rather unlucky Brute jumped behind the Hog, and
the grenade ended up sticking the Brute, killing it. I immediately went in
to the Theater to take a picture of it.
The pic is in my gallery on bungie.net right now, callled “Betrayal,” and
will be on my fileshare by the time this submission is read.

Shoutouts to the Podtacular crew, the poor Grunt who’s brains cover the
decal of my car, and Usedzombies for being cool.

Keep it up guys. You’re all awesome.

Keep on fraggin barrels filled with spider-monkeys.

Uzumaki15

Hey podtac Uzi here with a couple tales from the foxhole.

My first was a while back I was playing Team slayer (or BTS can’t remember
which) on Last Resort. The score was 49(or 99) to 49 (or 99) most of my
teammates were in a bubble shield by the red sniper spawn, except for one
who was scrimmaging somewhere, a red on a goose charges our bubble shield
right as it dissipates I run and assassinate him just as the voice from
nowhere says “Game Over”, apparently my teammate died a split second before
I beat down the goose driver. :(

The next one I have is from the day the Legendary maps were released
triggerhappypsycho had come over to hang out and try them.
We were playing shotty snipers (alone) on Ghost Town we charged each other
by the ramp by the OS leading to the bombed out building, we had our
shotguns out, he fired first killing me but then right as he killed me he
died getting a suicide. His first reaction was “What the heck just
happened?”. We went back into theater mode watching the clip over
and over again trying to understand how he killed himself with a shotgun
and yet after at least a dozen times we still couldn’t figure it out.

The Shotgun suicide is on my file share titled WTH.
Shootouts to Dust Storm, Crypto and however is lucky enough to guest host
(wish it were me) you guys are doing great.

Keep on fraggin’ trucks.

fOe KaNaRy

Hey Guys this Is fOe KaNaRy, This is my 2nd submission. About 2-3 months
ago me and my friend were forging on High Ground. He was messin’ with
fusion coils and picked one up. As he picked it up another one appeared out
of nowhere and just floated about 30 feet above it and randomly spinning
and moving around. I don’t have a video or picture of this cause my xbox
had too much custom content on it at the time, so yeah. If you want to see
it i guess i’ll have to talk to my friend and see if he kept it or not.
Keep on fraggin trucks.

tacticalleader

Hey guys its me Tactical leader or on Xbox live as Tactical rifle I’m a
new submitter but I’ve been listing since I don’t know when.
Duststorm or Cryptoflix, whoever is reading I got a Tale from the foxhole
for you.
So one time me and my buddy were foolin’ around on sandtrap and we were
both on the big, long structure with the Grav Hammer. So my buddy threw a
sticky and it flew over at me and I picked up the grav Hammer I smacked it
down as the plasma was going to stick me and it flew back over to him and
stuck him.

Great job on the show, keep on fraggin’ warthog’s

stallmeplease

Hey guys it is, and always will be, stallmeplease. I’m here to tell you
about a tale from the hole of fox. It was on ThE PiT and I was playing
shotty snipers. I walked to the overshield spawn as I always do, and out of
nowhere a pallet smacked me in the face, around the jaw area, and I died. I
watched the kill in theater, and an enemy player tried to chuck a nade at
his team member. The nade missed him and sent the pallet flying at my poor
old jaw. Keep on fraggin Crypto’s Watch ( which I am going to steal tonight
) P.S. I am going to steal your watch next week, Dustorm. CRYPTO FTW!
