Bungie, even though i didnt earn that oh-so-special armor from Bungie Day or even play the Bungie Crew, I had fun playing on all the awesome maps (even though i got sick of some of them after a while ;P ). I only wish i had my squad leader Xalonus there to pull my team together, but he is off at boot in the US Army.. I think my record would have had a better outcome if it wasnt only me and my wingman Xepher14, which played at least 18 hours with me. My comrade NervousEmu did join us for a few hours which was fun. But then there was the last member, who will remain unnamed, of the squad that had "better things to do" on Bungie Day. All in all you gave the ZEMA Squad a great Bungie Day.

Thank You Bungie for a magnificent 7/7/09 Bungie Day!

That boy needs therapy!

Just wondering, but when the last game of Bungie Day end? 'Cuz the last game I was in, I exited post game lobby and it said, "This playlist is no longer available.", so I looked at the clock and it was 1:05 am. I kept hoping that would be one of the secret thingys, but seems as my game wasn't the last =[

Xbox LIVE, the final frontier, these are the adventures of the gamer, Spartan Tickler. His ongoing mission, to pwn noobs and seek new achievements in strange, far off games and boldly go where no man has gone before.

Where can you find for what thing you got recon for?

Hey yo,
i heard that ya'll were giving out recon for leading in any catagory... i spent the entire day getting wheelmen in your bungie versus the world playlist lol. 12 hours of strait play thanks to a 12 pack of mountain dew and i ended up with 194 wheelmen so if ya could just take a look at it and determine if its cool enough to get recon... if not, thats cool too, just wasted an entire day on an assault rifle and pistol spawn playlist...
Thanks,
lucifer

ok i dont really think bungie vs world was such a big hit only because a big amount of people did get to play you but not as big compared to the amount that didnt. all im really saying is that you should at least give everyone another chance and that chance should be to face you not to play other non-bungie members. although the maps and games were fun; playing bungie for recon would be a dream for me and billions more around the world. so please bungie give everyone a 2nd chance to play with the CREATORS of their favorite games-myth, marathon, and the best yet Halo 3. PLEASE give us one more chance soon.

Well, I would like to put a signature here, but I can't think of anything interesting and creative...?

GAHHHHHH. I was even telling myself right before I got off, "I should get 77 Exp in this playlist, just for luck" but got off anyways.

*Cuts wrists*

No, I've gotten over it.. I gotta find somtim to do this summer, I'm bored as hell.

  • 07.10.2009 11:20 PM PDT

As usual, great update. Bungie day was a blast this year. I wasn't one of the lucky ones who got matched against you guys but still had a great time in the playlist. Can't wait to try again sometime soon.

I can't believe that I didn't meet any requirements? I thought for sure you guys would make one of the requirements "Win the first 7 of your matches" , but I guess not =(

I'm confused on two of the secret requirements.. The first game, and Last game. How do you find that out? I mean when I jumped into the playlist it showed 0 population.... lol, and my last game went on (3) mins after the playlist was closed. (Edit: My last game lasted a overall total of 7 mins lol. How's that not recon worthy hahaha)

I'm in no way or shape complaining. Just curious is all. I'm sad I didn't get a shiny suit of recon like all the other lucky people. Lol, my kills were even divisible by 7 hahaha.... ( Social Kills: 6,524 / 7 = 932)
Any who congrats to those who won, and thanks bungie for a great day!

Eh, what can you do. I tried, and it was worth a shot. Just really bummed out. I got my hopes up even though I didn't know if I met the criteria or not. I just hope the ODST achievements are not god-like hard so I can do my best to earn recon that way.

don't ever change your xbl login email. it will only leave you with over 30 days of stress trying to fix it.

I'm really happy I'm part of this community. Even though I was out of town during Bungie Day (I think the first I've missed in 3 years?) I loved the recap.

Thanks for 4 and 1/2 great years of me being a part of the online family.

Youll also get every other Halo 3 map and you can can play the whole lot right off of the secondary disc that's packed inside.

What the hell? Give away maps packs that people have already bought?!

So if I buy ODST will you refund me the price for all of those map packs Bungie? If you don't, it sounds to me like you guys are a bunch of money grubbers and really really lame.

Bungie Day was the best. All my friends came over and we played for 19 hours straight.We never did play Bungie, though we did play a few kids who had recon.Today I checked for Recon armor and I HAD IT!While I did get recon, I can't help to wonder how I got it.Is there a way to find out or somebody I can ask, like an employee?If I don't find out why I will be ok, I will just always be wondering.

Ahh! Bungie, I should have known you would have awarded recon to players with 77 EXP in the playlist, how could I be so dumb? maybe I was half as drunk as you guys? well, It was fun, I hope i get my chances again at recon.

  • 07.11.2009 12:26 AM PDT

I never saw your firey faces but my friends and I still had a blammin' GREAT Bungie Day! I even made some new friends who wanted to flop their love spuds on your chins as much as I did.

See ya next 7/7. Stay crazy.
