Why would you post something like that? 7 pages worth of people care.

And which pages would you be referring to?

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

darthbob, if you don't feel like supporting the Maw why don't you go somewhere else? Or at least refrain from posting ignorant, insulting comments.

Yeah, it went well. Still a "things are progressing" wouldn't have been hard in the Weekly Update, but hopefully we'll see more updates flowing out from the press.

So far the reason there's not much news seems to be because there's not much they've actually done with the game. Same polygon counts, textures etc, but some new map info would be cool, if there are any.

I'd say it was a moderate faliure in the sense that less than half the posters there put MAW under the posts. I didn't participate, I had got the info I wanted and am happy with it.

Though it was a success in that it got a response.

And why don't you actually post these 'raid' threads where they belong.

Was a complete failure.

The blow by blow:

Maw prepares to charge.

Weekly update is posted.

Maw hurriedly scans update

Maw becomes angry, charges.

Half of Maw becomes bored and decides to go watch game.

Other half of Maw meets Anachronos and Sketch on the battlefield.

Anachronos and Sketch blame Hired Gun.

Iggwilv issues statement of defeat that will embolden fanboys for years to come.

(Poor Chairmanwow, who is oblivious to all of this, comes along and stages his own raid at 10:30 saturday morning.)


It doesn't look pretty, does it?

Chaimanwow then spells Achronos's name wrong.

Maw

It was done all wrong. It needed more planning, it was like sacrificing a Rook for a Pawn. Take the King, then when the army scatters, pick them off one by one.

In fact, that was pathetic! If your going to do it that way you'll have to keep it up for months! The posts were to short, you didn't make any points about anything, you didn't take advantage of anything. If your going to do it do it right.

I am expecting Anchronos to at least post here about it.

It was a very well articulated rant, let's hope someone gets through 9 pages of fluff and reads it...

Up until earlier this week nobody had heard boo -blam!- about Halo 2 Vista anywhere. So I acted. Truth of the matter is if nothing had been released this week we would still know nothing, So now we know not to look here.

Yeah I wish more people would have made a post in the weekly update but we got the attention of Sketch and Achronos and now we are all fine.

It was a great tactical suggestion that no-one else was able to think of. Go Iggw!

not to be mean or anything, but i thought the old septagon raid, led by inspire, way back when, was more epic.

I tried to do a raid for a Halo 1.08 patch adressing rampant Teamkilling and netcode, but I backed outta it when interest started to die.

I missed it, with my erratic and sporadic Bungie.net posting sprees. >_>

Ah well, next time.
