*taps my Recon armor piece*

I receive it with gratitude.


Yeah and all the rest of us are not able to. It just doesn't seem fair to me.

I got recon as well so I'm wondering if it's just the original 14 that got it? If not, did anyone who submitted each game in the set time actually get it? There's confirmation from about 10 people, what do the rest have to say?

I got it. I was number 20 of the conquerors and submitted all 10 games so yeah. I would assume all who submitted got it.

I think this (look at what I highlighted) might be the problem some people are having with receiving Recon. Even though you may have submitted for all 9 actual prior contests, it was crucial to submitting for the 10th raffle to ensure that you got recon.

Sheer speculation though, but if anyone is wondering why they don't have recon, they might be able to trace it back to the requirements for the 10th raffle.

Sure, but first I'll need to know what time zone you're in. And then we'll need to do a "trial" run to see who gets the best host if we can be on at the same time. Otherwise it should be fine.

When the dust settles, you will learn what true terror is.

I have to say that I, also, believe that ANYONE who completed the game on Mythic should get Recon. Though, honestly, in a month Recon will be all-but-worthless. When I was doing the competition, I was striving to beat the game on Mythic and earn a spot on that list. The Recon was a nice bonus incentive, but my real goal was the title as a conqueror. That, to me, is more valuable than a thousand sets of Recon (and it's certainly more rare).

It's undeniably true, the title of Mythic Conqueror is the rarest achievement in all of Halo 3, however Gazas also has a point in that Bungie themselves deemed this an impossible task, which out of hundreds of thousands of players has been accomplished by less than 50. Surely it proves something?
Despite this, I personally am not sore about not receiving Recon, simply because the title of Conqueror means more to me and the people who understand what it implies know that it is less common than Recon and a lofty goal for anyone to challenge themselves to achieve.

Feet first into heck!!!

I completly agree with you MATCLAN. And by the way, my recon does not affect my addiction to Mythic so if anyone is looking for someone to do claso with (including you MATCLAN) I can play with you, I only ask that only conqueors inv me to play so we have the same ammount of experience and I dont end up carrying anyone... or visa versa.

Am I the only one who thinks claso is fun?

SWEET!!!! I'm going to finish this with Play Doh!!

Also, there are 18 mythic conquerors who currently have recon, 2 more possible (elites) and the rest either are not wearing it or have not put it on yet.

One of the few and the proud, a Mythic Conqueror, I am.

Well, I contacted Tyrant and he said that he would look into the problem for those Mythic Conqueror's (that qualified for the tenth raffe) that didn't get Recon.

The only reason I really care if I get Recon is because it would essentially complete the game for me, in the fullest sense of the word. I mean I've completed the game on Mythic, I have all of the available achievements, I'm a general, and the only real thing missing is having Recon :)

It's sort of just a goal of mine.

I'm sure it will be settled. Tyrant probably just needs a couple of days to catch his breath...

I understand about finishing... I sure wish I was a 50 but I'm old and don't have any halo friends that can carry me... lol

Ahhh the elusive 50... It's so frustrating that I can hit 46, then get into a few laggy games or have an off day and never get past that barrier. Especially since I trounce 50s regularly. *heavy sigh*

Hello, Community!

Hopefully if you're reading this, it's because you're interesting in kicking your campaign experience up a notch by cranking up the Legendary with all skulls activated :-) Need advice? A guide? Maybe even a friendly community to cheer you on and help guide you through the process? Then give our Mythic thread a read, and Godspeed on your Mythic journey!

Best Regards,
The Tyrant

I will say this. For those of you who are "concerned" I would suggest going ahead and starting HC's Mythic CLASO challenge. That way you'll end up with Recon regardless.

Thanks for the offer, but my brother suddenly decided that he does want to give it a go, so I'm playing CLASO with him for now.

Panda, I'm willing to do CLASO any time. I, also, find it fun. So if I'm on and I'm not working on 4-man mythic with Dark, Gazas, and Salsa then hit me up for some CLASO. GT: Sangheilioz

Or they could get all the vidmasters and then start marking off the days to ODST. I'm sure the vidmasters will be a lot easier than beating the game on Mythic; if they aren't then awesome a challenge! It's mostly a matter of principle at this point. PRINCIPLE!!!

No black and white in the blue.

@ anyone who successfully Kamikazed The Covenant:
Is there a trick to driving the Gauss Hog from Tower 3 to the Scarabs? I can get to the Hog fairly consistently, but I've gotten to the Scarabs less than 10 times. As far as I can tell, I do it perfectly (except for the first couple tries), but obviously I'm not. I tend to die most often when I turn the corner into the 2 Ghosts and Mortar Wraith (so freaking close...). Anybody have any helpful hints?

Hey Tyrant, I haven't been able to say it but, Thanks for putting your time in to clear up the confusion about this whole raffle thing, and another Big Thanks for starting this competition. Without it, I would have never known about Mythic Difficulty nor have tried it

Speaking of that, we should discuss the times.

Yes, great job as always, Tyrant!

Alright, not that I like making demands or anything, but please, I ask... I even beg that if you and your teammate already have Recon, don't compete in the competition. I mean, yeah, do 2 person SLASO all you want, but don't submit your entry. You will just be hurting other peoples chances of getting recon.

We weren't going to submit them for the contest because we already have it, just submit for the player page awards. Even so, Panda and I can't connect to one another directly. =(
