I feel kinda dumb right now.. I sent you a message a couple days ago Tyrant, and just got a reply saying "I didn't count it against you."

Now I'm not to sure what I sent in my message, if possible can I get a quick confirmation on if my entry counted next time you check this thread.

Also guys, if you don't win this contest, blame stosh. No seriously, don't give up =]


You're fine.

wait if i sent it to urk accidentaly am i still elegible?


If you resend it to me, you're fine. In regards to the "Blocked" question. If you were in fact blocked, it was for different reasons. Entries that are invalid don't get the author blocked. They just don't get entered into the database. I might be evil, but I have a fair amount of mercy on those that try, and also have a bit of common sense.

Thanks Tyrant, it was an accident and partly my fault because i did not read the instructions fully..... Thanks

When we link him the game, does he want the link to our fileshare with the film in it, or the link to the film itself?

Tyrant, if you could answer one question here (as I've seen at least one other with the same issue). If the game doesn't show up in our game stats for some reason then do we need to redo it? I know I, personally, was online for the entire thing, so I know it's not a mistake on my part but rather an error with the stat tracking done by Bungie. Basically, I want to know if I need to redo it and resubmit it, or if the film is enough. I don't want to spam your inbox (wouldn't expect you to read it anyway) and definitely don't want to submit a second time if it would disqualify me, so what do I/we need to do?


This is exactly what happened to me, but I have no response. My game time for the film is 12:34 and my time for some random game that was completed SLASO with no scoring is on Bungie. But, I finished more than 1 game as well. I didn't want to resubmit, fearing the same thing.


Any help for us?...

Yes, you do. Unfortunately, Saved Films don't tell the whole story. It doesn't tell me what difficulty you played it on, your score, the date of the actual game, or what skulls were in use. Not all skulls are easy to see like Blind and Grunt Birthday Party.

So I'm guessing we're disqualified? I'm not exactly going to worry about it too much, I just want to know. Is there anything we can do? Like resubmit? I don't want this to be a special occasion and only us can resubmit, so if that's the case then I really don't want another opportunity. I just wanted to know what I was supposed to do. :)

So, we are supposed to resubmit(redo) it? I'm just trying to clear this up, so we're not completely disqualified. I mean I already submitted the video but the bungie link from the file share vid doesn't work, so I didn't exactly know what to do.

Hey, just a couple of quick questions. Would there be a problem if the words Mythic Difficulty are not in the description? Also my entry film included my previous attempts rather than just the final run. Should I edit it and re-submit my entry?

Thanks

Are we supposed to get an auto response because I pmed mine on saturday and still haven't got anything. Should I resend it?

  • 06.15.2009 2:31 PM PDT

I did mine ealier :D
After quite a few attempts where I missed a jump, got stuck on something and died I finally did it.

4:50 incase anyone is interested, I also tried to put down a deployable cover and got stuck behind it lol

  • 06.15.2009 3:05 PM PDT

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

Alright, I just redid it anyway (with a better time!) so I'm going to check to see if it's in the Game Stats on the site and then send you a hyperlink to the film. Thanks for understanding our situations and allowing us to redo/resubmit! You are a benevolent tyrant.

Oh and good luck to everyone in this contest, and especially to you, Tyrant, with sifting through all the entries. Looking forward to Halo this weekend.

Do NOT send me Recruitment Letters, doing so will get you blocked faster than you can say "Huh?"

He takes all the names and gives them to Bungie so they can draw.

I've recently gotten the Red Rings of Death (3 sections) and I am not sure when I will be able to play again. I'm just wondering if this will have any affect on my position in the contest. Am I still eligible?

  • 06.15.2009 4:44 PM PDT

What did you mean when you posted Rule No. 3? HERE

3) Scoring MUST be turned on and the film MUST be uploaded to your file share. Additionally, you must hyperlink your entry using the format: [url]insert link here[/url]

And, where do you want us to post or hyperlink the film at?

1) Scoring must be switched on to prevent players from using Save & Quit to cheat.

2) It must be uploaded to your file share.

3) When you send me a Private Message (aka your contest submission), it must include a hyperlink directing me to the Mythic Floodgate file on your file share.

If you've already submitted, you're fine. If you haven't... well obviously if you can't play Halo, then you can't enter the contest.

It would be nice Tyrant if you could send out confirmation PM's to the successful people who linked and did everything right. But I know you can't, because of all the submissions.

Anyways, I can't wait to see if I or someone else wins.

Good luck fellow members!
