Quick question Tyrant.

After a contest is over, lets say the floodgate one. Can we still submit videos to you or someone else of us completing floodgate in order to receive the floodgate mythic medal on halocharts?

On halocharts, you only have to submit the link to the game stats, not the film.

And yes, you will get your reward. I already have 3 mythic awards on HC from before this contest.

Hello, Community!

Hopefully if you're reading this, it's because you're interesting in kicking your campaign experience up a notch by cranking up the Legendary with all skulls activated :-) Need advice? A guide? Maybe even a friendly community to cheer you on and help guide you through the process? Then give our Mythic thread a read, and Godspeed on your Mythic journey!

This is a good question. If you're talking soley for the medal and nothing to do with the SMRC, then yes. However, this is strictly related to Halocharts, so you'll want to fill out one of their submission forms. You can access it here.

Also, the winner of the Floodgate Challenge has been notified via Bungie.net Private Message. If you didn't receive a message, keep trying. We have nine more challenges and nine more chances for you to win Recon!

From what I gather, it's jsut a bug in the system. You'll know if you're blocked via a message that says "Tyrant isn't accepting PMs at this time." Or something along those lines...

Hey tyrant,

When you still have 0dls on your Halo mythic run. Does this mean that they have not checked you yet? Or do you only look at the game histoy?

Thanks in advance,

I received my Halo 3 Recon armor on 8-3-09 for completing Sierra 117 on Mythic Difficulty through the Summer Mythic Recon Challenge.

I noticed that we need to keep the videos of our runs in our fileshare for the length of the challenge, however my Bungie Pro subscription will run out before the end. I saw in the rules it says "we'll figure something out" but I figured, what if we link the movies to another gamertag's fileshare? I could keep the final 6 runs in my own, and the first 3 in my secondary gamertag and post this within my SLASO page couldn't I? As long as the movie directs to the right game stats page and the author is correct I figure this would work, of course it's more work for Tyrant to go through.


Also, how many valid entries were submitted for the Floodgate challenge Tyrant? I'm just curious.

Any idea on when we'll receive our medals on Halo Charts?

The answer to your first question is this. As long as the files you transfer to another tag are from past competitions only, and not current ones, you're fine. Each valid entry has to have his GT linked to the B.net profile that submitted the entry, if that makes any sense to you. After that, just make sure the author stays the same.

The answer to your second question is roughly 700.

And to answer the Halocharts related question, if you haven't received your medal yet, fill out on of these submission forms at Halocharts.com. Be sure to keep the film in your file share.

All I have to say is wow, this is why it took so long everyone Tyrant and Bungie roughly had 700 Floodgate films submitted to them, that is ridiculously cool, that many people tried Floodgate I bet the numbers will dwindle as the challenges get more difficult though.

If we didn't do this weeks halo mythic run, can we still enter next weeks comp? And if we and up doing all the levels but not at the right time, are we legible for the final draw?

Yes, but you won't be eligible for the 10th raffle. You have to do the missions on time [all nine missions] to be able to enter the 10th raffle. Even if you missed floodgate but do them all, you won't be able to enter the 10th raffle. As for me, I'm not able to enter the 10th raffle. Make the most out of it though.

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.

Both of these answers have been answered in this topic already, but I'll keep you from serching for them:

1. Yes
2. The final drawing, so sayith Tyrant, is only eligible to those who competes in every other challenge. So if you missed Floodgate, like myself, the 10th Challenge is out of your reach. Which is OK seeing we still have 8 more to go, right?

If you believe you can beat the odds of 1/700 or 8/5600, then you shouldn't have any worries.

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

Hey Tyrant, just two quick questions if you have a chance:

1) For the Floodgate comp I accidentally linked my PM to the Game History rather than my file share. (Sorry) Just wondering if my submission still counts?

2) I completed Floodgate and then I changed my XBL gamertag, so the Floodgate video is by my old account, Tarheels22, and it kind of makes it look like I just grabbed the video off of someone elses file share. Will this mess me up?

Thanks

You don't honestly believe that 700 people are going to complete every challenge do you? Floodgate was an opener to the challenge. I beat that crap in 8:25 my first SLASO run. Anyone with any Halo talent could have beaten that and we only had 700 people qualify. My point is this: These numbers are going to dwindle....fast.

I am going off all the info provided. If you are to view url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=33131000]t he first Summer Mythic Recon Challenge thread[/url], it has about 150 post.
This (number 2) Summer Mythic Recon Challenge thread has 670 post. If you look at the number of post, that is about 4x [plus 70 post] over the first one, as I stated in one my of earlier post. That let alone tells you more people are attempting this challenge.
Just because the challenge gets harder, does not mean that the numbers will fall. People will be more anxious than ever to get that RECON and will spend hours and hours doing just one challenge [As I did my first time doing a mythic challenge before I watched the video guide].
From what the numbers are showing right now, saying 700 entries each contest is being too nice and under-estimating.

It's too late for floodgate.....
as for your second question, lets just say you shouldn't have done that.I'm sure there's a way to prove that it is your video, but I do not know of any. So what it looks like from my view is, your floodgate challenge really won't be eligible for the 10th raffle. But, you can always join
The Quest for SLASO and it will help keep track of your mythic campaign status. I suggest reading the rules on how to join this membership approval group before you go about clicking it. You need to have at least one mythic level done and in your fileshare to join. You can also apply on Halo Charts for your Floodgate Mythic Medal. It may not seem alot, but you will have what many don't.

From what it looks like, you were eligible for the 1st raffle. If you were PM'ed and notified you won, then you won. If not you lost. Remember that a raffle is a ticket going into a bag, and pulling out a random winner. Chances of winning for each person is VERY SLIM.

As for your 2nd raffle, you have completed the level Halo on MYTHIC DIFFICULTY, then you have done it right. It is in your file share, no deaths , all skulls on. Just be sure to send it in to Tyrant122312. He will be the won doing the raffles.
You are still eligible for the 10th raffle as well as long as you complete all your campaign levels within the date time assigned to each campaign. Remember, do not remove the campaign missions from your file share. This will eliminate you from the competition.
