You only waited 3 minutes, you guys at Bungie have no idea how lucky you are there is at least 2 new posts everyday in this forum and 15+ replies.
On the Xbox Forums there is a new post every week and some days there are no replies at all and others there are 1 or 2, the ODST forum was dry for about 2 weeks before today.
Yes the Road to Recon is still open, you can still get vidamsters and unlock recon - in case you didn't notice al the threads posted now are pretty much about how nobody plays Halo 3 and people wanting recon.
You should check out the Do YOU need a Vidmaster! thread on the Halo 3 Forums on xbox.com, we have a team of players who help people with the Vidmasters, the 200k Firefight achievements on ODST and also any general achievements you may need but if you want to help yourself to a player or two you're more than welcome. Here's a link to the thread:
