I originally posted this in the optimatch section. I will post a link to this, please post in the linked thread tomorrow so perhaps when they put the weekly update it will get some more attention. I know shishka has said they "lost the keys" to change the Halo 2 playlist, but that is just an obvious excuse. Here is what I had posted and a link to it.

With the current Halo 2 population slowly making its way to Halo 3, I think there need to be some adjustments made. It is becoming harder and harder to find games to play. The only two playlists that will find games quickyly are BTB and Team slayer. The ammount of playlists should be reduced and combined. Please insert your feedback into this thread on what yuo think the last and final playlists should be.
Here are my thoughts:
1.Team Slayer and Team Skirmish should be combined into one playlist, the name "team skirmish" still seems to fit for both Objective and Slayer games. This will be reflected on both social and Ranked.
2.Team Snipers should be removed as a playlist and added into Team Skirmish and Social Social Skirmish.
3.The Hardcore Playlist should be removed and the gametypes should be added into Team/Social Skirmish
4.Team SWAT should be removed from Social and added into the new Social Skirmish playlist.
5.The Halo 2 Challenge playlist needs to be removed as it is no longer needed.
6.Double Team and Rumble Pit need no changes as games are still easy to find in both.
To recap, here are a list of the new playlists.
Ranked:
1.Rumble Pit
2.Double Team
3.Team Skirmish (Combination of Team Skirmish, Team Slayer, Team Hardcore and Team Snipers)
Social:
4.Rumble Pit
5.Social Skirmish (Combination of Team Skirmish, Team Slayer, Team Hardcore, Team SWAT and Team Snipers)
6.Big Team Social
So please please PLEASE post in that thread tomorrow and try to keep it bumped. Perhaps bungie will finally pay attention to us and Halo 2 online can be fixed. This is their own fault for making "matchmkaing" the way they did. They have to maintain it to cater to the changing population. They made that choice when they decided to not let us look for custom games.
