Subject: Bungie / Game Trivia & PAX Contest For Charity

Hi. My name is Sean. I've been a Bungie fan since Halo launched. Some of my interests include games, exercising, laser tag, martial arts, movies, music, sports, and technology. Feel free to contact me at any time.

INTRODUCTION :
I'm hosting a contest in this thread throughout the weekend as a way to say thank you and show my appreciation to Bungie and the 7th Column community. I am very fortunate to be at PAX West for the 4th time in a row. I have enjoyed all of my time on Bungie.net and online with friends; I want to let you know I will be around to share many more great experiences with you.

The 7 users with the most points will get to choose any item(s) from the Bungie Store up to $77.77 in value, which will be shipped to them free of charge. I purchased some Anniversary posters and shirts that are now out of stock so the top 7 may choose one of those instead as a substitute. In addition, the winner of the contest gets to donate $777.77 to the charity of their choice, will receive all of the swag I collect from PAX and HaloFest, and can choose one item from the Bungie Store to send to another Bungie.net user.

I will post audio recordings of the panels that I attend as well as other media (pictures, videos).

HOW TO GET POINTS :
Note: The thread will be updated throughout the weekend, mostly in the early morning and late evening. Please quote the question you are replying to.

1. Trivia - Be the first user to reply to a trivia question with the correct answer. The difficulty of the question determines the number of points.
2. Recognize - Be the first user to reply to a picture with the username(s) included in it. The number of people in the picture determines the number of points.
3. Codes - Be the first user to reply to a Xbox LIVE code with the correct missing letter. 1 point is awarded per code. Hint: The question marks in each code are replacing the same letter. The missing letter in the codes though aren't always the same. I would suggest using the Redeem Code page. Codes are for either the Noble 6 Avatar Helmet or Cortana Avatar Prop through Xbox LIVE.

GUIDELINES :
* The guidelines below may change at any time without notice.
* You may be disqualified from the contest for any reason.
* If I don't see your post until after you edit it, you cannot receive a point for that particular question, even if you were the first user to reply correctly.
* If I can't determine what question you are replying to, you will not receive a point. I would highly suggest quoting the question you are replying to.
* Points are only awarded for answering the entire question.
* You can earn a point by being the first to reply with the missing letter of the code even if you were not fast enough to redeem the code or already have that content.

I'm so confused right now... How are we supposed to guess missing letters/number for a code!? That's harder than guessing a PIN number.

I thought it was as easy as putting sevens in there. I guess not. ;)

Here's a hint. The question marks in each code are replacing the same letter. The missing letter in the codes though aren't always the same. Since W is in both of the codes above, you know it's not the missing letter for either code. Nice try though. I would suggest using the redeem code page on http://www.xbox.com. There will be over 100 codes posted so good luck.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

That's awesome CG! I'll be able to fully participate once I figure out how to crack the codes...

Great advice, but I'd rather use http://www.xbox.com.
Might as well give this a shot this time...I want some free crap.

Does anyone even read these?

This looks great Cryptic, I hope it all goes to plan! I'll let you guys have a shot with redeeming the codes as I don't use Xbox Live much anymore.

BTW, I 'already have this content' for that one I figured out.

I love playing these games, but I have to go do stuff in the real world now...

Oh well. Good luck everyone ;)

Yeah, but I got the content from that one. My laptop is unfortuantely broken or something, and it won't let me use the printscreen option.

Kind of cryptic, wouldn't you say?
