Im pretty sure Tyrant is an a busy person he doesnt have all day to sit a computer and send confirmation messages to everyone if you did it right when you sent your film submission in then there should be no worries, Im sure he will send out confirmation messages as soon as he gets a chance. He probably has to go through a million and one messages and then find the Halo submissions within all the spam and junk messages he gets so like I said before play some Halo 3 and be patient, we are on Tyrants and Bungies time not our own! (o_O)


this guy is talking sense put yourself in their shoes am sure ud have better things to do :D

Hi,

Im not sure if this has been clarified yet but are we even supposed to be starting the halo mission on mythic difficulty? I have not seen this anywhere including the front page which infact left me with the impression we shoudn't have started halo yet as it is too early to send in our submissions.

The Halo mythic mission started on Friday so your free to go attempt this mission now.

Also this might help you with some of your unanswered questions you may have or anyone else may have! Mythic information

SMG correct me if im wrong but there is a thread which says the dates in which you can start the level and send in your submissions ? :)

Why Hello There ;D

I fear for my entry and everyone else who sent in two or more on accident.

'Only one submission is allowed per person.'

So if you sent in two videos of the same thing on accident, I fear that you have been kicked out the competition or blacklisted. I think I am blacklisted.
Only time will tell though.

My Halo 2 stats: http://www.bungie.net/stats/playerstatshalo2.aspx?player=Tarh eels22

Hey guys, I'm afraid my Floodgate Mythic completion might not have counted, I was wondering if anyone might be able to clear some stuff up for me.

1) I accidentally sent Tyrant a PM with the link to my post game carnage rather than to the video in my fileshare. The video is in the carnage report under assets so I figure it will be ok unless he gets technical about it, since it is easy to find my video.

2) Secondly, this is the one I'm more worried about, after I completed Floodgate, without thinking, I changed my Gamertag, so the film is by Tarheels22, my old account, and it makes it look like I just took the video from someone elses profile.

Any thoughts?

Why Hello There ;D

I think you messed up by changing your gamertag. If you were d/q, you are not alone.

Now my question:

If you did not do the first campaign mission between the week they gave you, but do it later before the 10th raffle, are you still able to enter the 10th raffle?

It says in the quest of SLASO:
People who complete all 9 challenges will also be elligable for the 10th Raffle.
So does this mean I am still elligable for the 10th raffle as long as I complete all the campaign mission on MYTHIC right?

It may also mean that if you actually complete the map twice and use both of the games to participate, you are out of the contest. That's what I hope at least, since I (probably) sent two successful entries of Floodgate just to make sure everything was done right =/

I completed the level Halo, 3 times on mythic and sent all three in. But the 2nd and 3rd, I told him that the previous one wasn't going to work and then I finally sent in the correct one. BLOCKED. hopefully not.

Dont take my word, but if you read Tyrants post when it was on the front of Bungie.net on the top treads stories of the day, it was up on the front page for a good 2 days I would say, he put a good 5 to 6 times of read the rules and dont forget to read the rules and so on, so your guess is as good as mine but read the rules people he posted it about 5 to 6 times in one of the treads so I assuming he has a zero tolerance for people sending him (x) amount of messages (o_O) He did something like this in his tread just for fun The Rules!

  • 06.21.2009 7:47 PM PDT

how do I know if I am on the blacklist??

no one will ever know if they are blacklisted. If you broke the rules at any time, you are blacklisted. If you been banned from Halo 3 xp gaining/file sharing or the forums, you have been blacklisted.
Etc, etc.

Well the rules are:

1) The missions must be completed within the time frame alloted for each challenge. No sooner. No later.
2) This can ONLY be done solo. No co-op campaign with this one.
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]
4) This must be completed while on XBox Live so that the game shows up in your history.
5) You must have an active Bungie.net account linked to an active Xbox Live GT.
6) If you have ever been XP banned or file share banned, you are not elligible.
7) If you currently have Recon armor, you may enter, but you cannot win the competition.
8) If you have ever violated the requests stated in my signature and spammed my inbox, you have been blocked and are also not elligible. See what happens when you don't play nice?
9) If you wind up being Blacklisted in the forums during any point in the competition, you are also not elligible. Again, play nice!


Doesn't mention not sending in [x] of messages, but I'm guessing that you really want to send in one, or it's none. Maybe some light could be shed on this.

True but I think he said something along the lines of messaging more than once dont take my word on it, but just put yourself in his shoes would you want a million extra messages to go through when your trying to find the right submission for that weeks contest (raffle) just a thought (o_O)

Oh, I see. That might be bad. Well, you'll just have to wait for somebody to confirm whether you were disqualified or not. Good luck and so on.

Actually, he has some tolerance:

A few of us who have posted on previous pages of this thread, myself included, sent two private messages (having suspected a problem with their first private message). Private messages can be previewed but there's no way of checking them once they have been sent.

Will the second private message count if everything was correct, even if the first message sent was incorrect? Or will anybody in this situation be disqualified?

Also, if there is additional text in the private message, e.g. "Hello here is my video", could this cause a problem?


I haven't counted it against anyone yet. Probably safe to bet that I won't in the future. The only ones that don't get entered into the database apart from having a legal Mythic Floodgate run are the ones that either don't contain hyperlinks, or the ones who are extremely lazy and just told me to look into their file share... >_> Really... like I'm really going to set aside an extra 3 minutes per person because they were too lazy to copy, paste, and insert [url][/url]. lol.


What we don't know for sure is whether or not you'll be disqualified if you enter two or more separate games, or as in my case, post two successful entries of the same game.

Why Hello There ;D

It must be real nice having messages in your message center all the time. Lol, but I know what your talking about. I'm hoping that I still wasn't DQed.
