I'm not sure exactly when the contest ends, but yeah. Whoever wins congrats on winning Recon Armor. And for those of us who don't win, stay optimistic, we might just get another chance at winning Recon Armor in another random tournament. You never know so stay on top of your game and you might win the next tournament.

Dude, you only get banned on the gamertag you got banned on...It doesn't transfer over to all of your other gamertags, unless that's what Bungie does now, let's hope not.

the contest has now ended. You had to take a screenshot and tag it b4 today. Winners will be pm on friday here on bungie.net. We will not be told who the winners are. If they told us the winners, they would be at risk of being hacked.

If you don't have a single screenshot tagged then you didn't enter the contest....That's what I am understanding by the rules set down. In other words if you didn't tag a photo then you are, in fact, not in the contest.

Well, the case is: I have played with three guys (naturally).
Me and two of them uploaded ONE picture of the game into his file share, and tagged it.
The last person uploaded three pictures of that game, but didn't tag one.

Does this disqualify us since he uploaded more pics of that game?

You only really need one person to tag a shot, that's it, but if the other 3 tagged shots then you have a much higher chance of winning. So if one person out of your group tagged a shot then you entered the contest.

Each player in your party can upload one screenshot into their File Share.

What if someone uploaded more of the same game?

BUNGIE TEAM

hello people! i just want to say to all of you that this vidmaster annual achievement was the most funny thing i ever did in halo 3, was so funny finishing the level with 4 ghosts with friendsss=)) i had a really nice day doing this achievement, we spent 30 minutes just to achieve the first checkpoint in the first part of the level,there was flood everywhere!
I want to know one thing,I have one guest in the list of the four, i had a friend in my house so he play with us.
Is there any problem to participate in the contest because of this?and when will the winners be notified?by friday pm?
I want to wish good luck to everyone! This is my 3rd contest to win recon, i know that is very difficult but i have the figgers crossed!;)

thanks community and bungie

As long as there is one and only one tagged shot then you are perfectly fine, just keep your fingers crossed. Good luck to all that made it in time before the deadline. I did, but I doubt that my group will win lol. But yeah, you are alright as long as just one is tagged.

  • 05.18.2009 6:45 AM PDT

How many people win recon? I thought several did for the mythic brawl thing.

To help people Unsure about many topics:

1. Any Ban = No Recon.
Xeclipsethegodx

And no, you can't win if you were banned and created a new profile. We can still see your history.
If you've been banned, you'd know it. A message pops up in-game and notifies you.
If you were EXP banned, you shouldn't participate.

Quotes of the Mighty Urk :D

2. Each player of a Team gets to send and Tag 1 Photo EACH.

Each player in your party can upload one screenshot into their File Share

3. If a player of your team puts in 2+ photos and tags them all He is not capable of winning but you can still win if someone of the same team wins.

4. No-One knows how many TEAMS will win Recon.

5. If someone in One Party wins then the whole group wins. if someone in your party was Banned for any reason none of u get recon so blame yourself for not winning for not asking him. if he Lied Kill Him :D.

Each player in your party can upload one screenshot into their File Share. If one player wins, the entire foursome gets awarded Recon. Make sure that nobody on your squad has ever received a matchmaking ban for cheating or boosting, as it will disqualify everyone from the competition.

6. PM Thursday, Read about it Friday (I Have heard) also, they wont say who won due to risk of being hacked.


7. Your picture should be Tagged as "Vidmaster Annual" and in your File Share!

Take some screenshots of something awesome along the way, upload your best screenshot (singular) to your File Share, and tag it: "Vidmaster Annual." (No, you don't need to include the quotations, the period, or the capital letters.)

8. Its over any Screenshot Tagging/Taking from 12:00am PST is unable to enter the competition

9. Good Luck to Everyone!

Sorry for the wall of text it just had to be done to help clear it all up.
