Subject: Frankie, where art thou during the day?

I have an irrational fear of unattended robots.

Seriously....

I've been looking around and I can't find any definitive answer:
What does Frankie do all day? We usually hear from him twice a week or so, with the update and the humpday, but what is he doing in all those lost hours?

"Testing"?

I'm just a little curious, cause me thinks he has the most awesome job of all times...

So, we're going with "testing" then? Or does he pour bottled water out on to his desk and watch that flow for comparison?

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

He likes to ignore us and hang out on other forums. He only pops up on b.net when he feels like making fun of people.
See here and here and, of course here.

If you want to see what Frankie does during the day, head to some other forums. For examply, try the NeoGAF forums and look for Stinkles.

That was hilarious and still is.

"I pledge to punch all switches, to never shoot where I could use grenades, to admit the existence of no level except Total Carnage, to never use caps lock as my "run" key, and to never, ever, leave a single BoB alive."

Frankie, like most of the Bungie Staff, is hard at work on Halo 3 or Halo 3 related items. Whether that could be a phone calls, pushing papers, etc., whatever he does is for the good of the project. Most of what he does (I suppose) won't be a visible or tangible thing that the public will get to see. However I'm positive that it can effect such things that the public receives.

Frankie's peach schnapps benders usually go until the wee hours, which means his hangovers don't wear off til around 2:00pm, then he does some light calisthenics and combs his cats.

I have an irrational fear of unattended robots.

From what I've read above, this is what I see Frankie's day going like:

11:00am Arrive at office, prepare beverages.
12:00pm Hassle some guy in a gorilla suit
12:30pm Play the builds he's not supposed to play.
4:00pm Start writing the weekly update (if its Friday), else play the build he's supposed to play.
6:00pm Drink heavily, while patrolling the forums.
7:00pm Final revisions, and posting
8:00pm Douse the forums with his heavily pondered best words ("shut up, nerds")
8:02pm Continue drinking.
1:00am Wake up in the parking lot of Bungie Studios.
2:00am Pat self on back for a job well done, set alarm for 10:30am in preparation for tomorrow.


Like I said, greatest job ever.

Testing Beta usually, check his gamertag on the XBOX site to see where. If he isnt, he could be anywhere.

DO NOT TURN AROUND =O

I don't fear the Frankie. The webmaster, now thats an entirely different story. I don't know a lot, but if there's one thing I know, its that if a person is articulate enough to be paid for their writing, there's no need to fear them.

It's the people who write for fun that you really have to watch out for.

As such, Frankie is a weak foe.
