    I was wondering what would happen in this situation.
    Searching for Social Slayer with 4 other people.
    I put all four of them into ZA under trusted.
    This means that we can still all talk right?
    And it will bridge someone host. I just wont know which one in my party that it will be.

    If this is true. This would mean you could still have good connection and talk to team mates.

    Yes to everything that you just asked. It will give some random person host in your party, you will be able to hear everyone and talk to them and yes to anything else that I missed.

    Directed at TWIS7ED...

    Is it possible to bridge in Team Doubles, and do you have any suggestions on how to get it working?

    Yes, it is possible to bridge in Double Team. It should be the same as normal except you may need to change your timing. What timing should you use? I have no idea. You experiment and find out.

    Can anyone who has had good experiances in bridging 4v4 please help me out with some of there timings, at the moment im either doing the following,

    Lowering as soon as we match 4 players, counting to 4 then highering, or

    Lowering after 2 seconds when players join, then higher after 3 seconds.

    The first one i've had alot of success with but sometimes just goes all wrong with 2/3 games in a row, and we get the loss cos it kicks us out. The second one i'm doing now and it seems to work better.

    Also can anyone that knows alot answer me this, why cant I bridge against Japenese players or players with super fast connections? I fail 50/50 with Jap players with super fast connections

    Also, i'm not talking about searching in 2's or 3's for 4v4, i'm talking about as a party of 4. Its alot harder this way as you have to pay alot of attention

    Well i do similar to your sec one. But i wait 4 seconds before raising it up.
    And i have also experienced similar issues with Japs but i have no idea how to solve it.
    Id say stick with 3v3s if your having that much trouble. You find games quicker and its easier to bridge.

    I'd love to just bridge 3v3's, but me and a few others play 4v4 in MLG playlist at level 50 legit and host just makes it smoother for us seeing as we're from the UK. I guess i'll have to keep testing out different timings.

    I am tryin to standby and everytime I try it both teams will go blackscreen then both will come back and play. I know you said something about zonealarm moving on its own but the only way it does is if i manually move it. Is there something im doin wrong?

    As in when I turn zonealarm on high? If so I do it for like 4 sec.

    Also I am running vista and now getting that 17 error and when I try to do it the other way macro maker wont work on my computer. Is there any way it will work on vista?

    I don't think the macro will work on Vista, and 4 seconds can be too long, try doing it around 1-2 seconds.

    I can only get it to work in 2's at the moment. Whenever I search 3s and lower my firewall it restarts search. Should I lower it quicker or slower than i'm doing now?

    In this post you said something about bridging boosting/exp boosting... Could you please explain how to do the exp boosting? I want to boost a bunch of doublexp this weekend since it's rocket race and I know it's one of the ones I've seen people do it in and I believe this is how they did it but I don't want to risk getting exp banned. Thanks in advance!

    Ugh, do people really still use zonealarm and cain to bridge? It's unfortunate that the most complex advancement in network manipulation since halo 2 has been an auto standbyer that essentially presses up and down. Does anyone realize how easy it is to make something better? I literally spent a day learning C++ (fluent in C#) and was able to write a program for bridging far superior than the rudimentary tools used now, and I see the possibility for so much more. Why doesn't anyone contribute anymore?

    You need to use straight-through ethernet cables from Xbox to router, computer to router, and then from router to modem.
    I don't think it will work wirelessly the normal way.
    As for software, you need a firewall("zonealarm" as an example), cain&able, and auto-standby(unless your bridging).
    I'm currently on my friends house for a week so add his XBL GT.
