Found it Rule #8 read it

You will receive an update just before each challenge with specific details pertaining to that challenge. For now, here are the universal rules:


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!
10) You may use the official Halo 3 Mythic Walkthrough on HBO. You may use any of the films in my personal file share for guidence. You may also use the Official Mythic Difficulty thread for tips and tricks as well as saved films from all the Mythic Conquerors in that thread. I've also noticed recently a few of my films posted on Youtube, You may use those as well.

Why Hello There ;D

Ok, Thanks crop. Now that I've read what he said to the other guy in the post, I feel more comfortable with my mistake. He said he will go through the messages that have hyperlinks.

Here. I will tell you what had happened.

2 was a duplicate and because my film was 52minutes early from the 19th. The 3rd was because I sent him a new link to my new vid, but then found out it was 1:37:07 long and that I forgot to restart the mission. Last but certainly my least message, I sent him the correct one. Hopefully if I wasn't blacklisted, I will still be in this thing.

But only one can win; plus over 200 people entered the last one from what I know. So your chances are 1/200. I better find a four leaf clover...

This is what he considers spam in his inbox:
-----------
Messages asking me about my armor, asking for armor, or help obtaining it will be blocked immediately. You won't get a response. Same goes for group recruitment messages. Strangers who send friend requests or beg will be blocked. Flaming or rude messages will result in block.
-----------

....Sorry I stalk.

The ones I sent in had time limits.
One was 32minutes, the other was 1:32:07, and the last and correct one was 26minutes.
I wonder if I deleted those films in the hyperlink will be voided.

If you want a new friend, add me as my GT is StuffyAnimal.

So if you are blocked will it say blocked? I sent three messages, the first was improperly done, the second had a broken link, but the third worked. I got confirmation for all three, so am I ok?

Why Hello There ;D

You are in the same boat I'm in. But if you are blocked from a user, they won't tell you that you were blocked; they simply will not receive your message that you sent the user. Im taking, if you got an auto-reply, he received your message though but do not hold me to it.

I also find Tsavo a lot easier than The Storm. Seeing as I can get all the way to the wraith at the end of the level without even stopping to kill anything, I think it takes much less skill and patience than the storm.

I always seem to mess up killing the scarab when I play the storm.

Does anbody else out there agree with my opinion that, for the average player, Tsavo Highway is considerably less difficult than The Storm?

I would propose Tsavo Highway as the ideal next challange, before The Storm. I don't suppose there's much chance that the order of the challanges can be changed now.

ohai...

I've probably been blocked then, since I sent the first message asking whether it was Team scoring or FFA, then I sent my submission on the second post...

No group invite, so I guess I've been blocked..

Me and my ODST we are our own breed, forged from combat and bread from years of battle as ODST. So you can take your -blam!- ODST clan invites and shove 'em. Rookies don't run jack, we do.

I haven't seen any updates about the contest, nor the winner for the first week posts. But.....The original post confirms that Halo could have been attempted as of Friday, June 19th 2009. and runs until this upcoming Friday.

I personally have my entry in for this week. Good luck guys.

Personal favorite quotes:

-The world already ended. You're just in denial.

Umm, not sound annoying, but did my entry make it in Tyrant? I think I did everything correctly.

Hello, Community!

Sorry for the delayed response, ladies and gentlemen. I've been out of town since Friday with limited computer access.

This is a good question and would like to address it. Though Tsavo Highway is a relatively easy mission, I rate The Storm as being even easier simply because essentially, once you've made it past the Scarab (assuming you're following the guide), you've pretty much beaten the mission.

I look at giving Arbiter the Rocket Launcher the same way I view commandeering the Wraith on Tsavo Highway. Once you've made it to these points, unless you screw up badly or have an extremely rare and random event occur, you can almost guarantee yourself the win. The difference hear is that in Tsavo Highway, you don't get that security until the near end of the mission. On The Storm, however, you gain that massive advantage for roughly half of the entire mission.

This translates into you having to do far less work to complete the mission successfully.

In regards to the questions regarding the Floodgate winner; I have not been informed at this time whether or not a winner has been chosen.
