So here I am with three other cool people I met on XBL completing the Vidmaster achievement for Endure. Now we all know you must have three other online buddies and have the difficulty set on Heroic, correct? Ok, now here we are on our 4TH SET and guess what happens? The connection FREEZES (of course BUNGIE!)

Me and one guy was a Vidmaster away from unlocking Recon and this CRAP happens. Words can't express how depressed we felt when the screen went black. It was like our life had ended. It felt like the New England Patriot upset in 2008. It felt like an Elite just ripped our hearts out and stepped on them -no- BBQ'd it on a energy sword and ate it for dinner.

Oh why oh why us?! After wrestling with Chieftains equipped with Gravity Hammers and scrappling down to about 3 to 5 Brutes for nearly two hours on set 4, we started cheering on about how we would celebrate our new (now common) Recon armor, how we would drink Coorslight and do backflips with blunts lit in the air, how we would all rock our suits in a 4v4 ranked team slayer match .... BUT NOOOOOOOO! Someone's dad had to accidently turn on some switch that terminated our Firefight session. -_-"

It was soooooooo .... wait, words can't explain it.

But we're over it now. I just had to vent here because we were so CLOSE! Like guys you don't understand. We felt like someone just nuked us all, like Bill Gates and Jason Jones was sitting in a server room somewhere in Washigton State playing jokes on random Halo players:

/Somewhere in the Bungie Studios observing random online Firefight sessions/

Bill Gates: "OH LOOK! Those guys there are down to five Brutes with jetpacks, AND on the 4th set! HIT THE LAG SWITCH Jason! We can't let them winnnnnnnnnnn!" [Tipping fingers like Mr. Burns]

That's how it felt.

But you know what Alex Seropian? We're going to do it again in the morning! How you like that Bungie?! As a team now we know how to perfect Endure. Those two hours bonded us together like no other and we're going to crush Firefight again on the second go around. Then we're going to take our frustrations out online and CRUSH every SINGLE person in team slayer who plays like Martin O'Donnell with our now-common Recon armor. =D

With that off my hairless chest, I'M OUT!

First off, Bungie is not in charge of your connections, sort that out amongst you and your pals.

Second, Bill Gates isn't even in charge of Microsoft anymore.

"Second, Bill Gates isn't even in charge of Microsoft anymore."

Uhh, DURRR! It's called cracking jokes and having a sense of humor genius. And didn't you read on? I mentioned what had happened. -_-

If it is a joke, where was I supposed to laugh?

Don't know, you tell me. You're the one lacking humor.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.
