The Storm. The Storm....
Ya know what? I blame the Chinese! Ya know why? Cus they invented Kung Fu. Then Kung Fu gets exported to Europe. Then Europeans start Kung Fu clubs. Then I go to university, I and join a Kung Fu club. And the week that the competition for The Storm was on, was the annual Kung Fu holiday. So, I had like, a 3 hour window between when the competiton for that level started and the time when i would have to pack up my Xbox and ship it back home so I could go on the holiday. Obviously, I wasn't practiced enough by that point, and failed to complete it. Leaving me with no entry for The Storm that week and no eligability for the 10th raffle.
Of course, I came right back the week after and did both The Storm and Tsavo Highway on the same day.
Ugh. I mean, I'd already resigned myself from pretty early on in the competition to having to get the Vidmaster's to get Recon. The competition was then really just a motivator for Mythic. But its annoying ya know? Doing the campaign on Mythic within the same timeframe as a dozen other people, coming within touching distance almost, and missing out because I was on holiday!

@ 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?
Just before that corner, there is a large cliff face between you and the Wraith. You can get up and over that cliff. As you come round the large curve toward where the Prowlers hang out, along the base of the cliff (between you and the wraith) should be two rocks. A large one, and a slightly smaller one. Drive betwen those and you should be able to get up the cliff face (you should also know the place as, when you look at the cliff, its the lowest part.
Going over here will drop you behind the wraith and sniper tower on the rock area. Be slow on the descent though, an invisible barrier can catch you if you're too fast and lose contact with the cliff-face too early.
BTW. I'm doing this from memory so forgive me if my description is a little off.
