Is it just me, or is everybody else unsure of what "render" minutes are...
Time to go to dictionary.com!!!

i can only count to jagermeister.

I had a couple quick questions that I wonder if anyone knew the answer-

1) Doesn't the matchmaking system favor matching up teams of 4 with teams of 4? Is this going to be true of the Bungie vs The World playlist?

2) I seem to remember a mention of a list being put up somewhere of which teams will be playing at what times (maybe in the podcast?) is this going to happen or did i just dream that up?

3) This is kind of irrelevant but I'm gonna toss it on out there- If someone were to hypothetically, say, beat the bungie team (crazy, I know) does the recon unlock instantly or does it take 6-8 weeks like everything else in the world that one wants right away.

Sorry if these questions have already been answered, I searched but I did not find.

From the update yeah, we've also got a third, super secret thing in the works that you know nothing about.
So there is three projects
One of them is Halo:Reach?
Do we know anything of the other one??

Are the bungie employes going to be team of 4s, or are they going in with randoms

If it ain't my chair, it ain't my problem. That's what I say.

holly crap.... wow i wish 7/7 was on a weekend. yet another community event I miss because I can only get online during the weekends. I just wanna have the chance of meeting a bungie member, and maybe pwning some urk, the bringer of good news in my inbox :)

Spartans, what is your profession?
Go Green!

Ok so quick question, whats is going to stop people from trying to maximize their chances to get matched up with Bungie by dropping out of every game that doesn't have a either a recon helmet seen in the lobby, or flames on heads right after the match starts? Yeah they'll loose xp but I doubt thats a big enough deterrent. Seems a bit unfair and counter to the spirit of the game if I get punished for staying in the games while the players who take a peek and split could statistically get up to 4 times the amount of chances to get matched up with Bungie while I am finishing the 10-15 min games (which at that point may only be 1v1s when everyone is done quiting...)
Will you guys penalize those who have a crud load of negative xp in this playlist so these games don't suck? Perhaps extinguish the flame and remove the recon so no one will know they played against bungie unless they recognize the high profile gamertags? Of course, that would kinda ruin the screenshots from the game.....
I guess I'd just like to know that the hammer of justice is never too far out of reach...

My old YouTube channel got banned while I was on vacation. Please subscribe to my new one to help me get back up to 20,000+ subs: (http://www.youtube.com/AlexGereTV)

Is there going to be gamer pics/themes on that day as well? There was for the past 2 years and I actually enjoy those pictures/themes.

I work here: Sound Devices, LLC. We make bad-ass field audio gear, and you think that's awesome. My messy desk (With work-related items on the computer screen).

One does not simply grenade jump into Mordor...

"...but as you may have learned from the proceeding sentence..."

Preceding, Urk. Preceding.

That's right. I logged onto these forums again after more than a year just to point out a grammar error. I'll go back to work now...

Everything looks cool from Bungie. Can't wait for ODST. :)
