What ever happened to the gunslingers? Last time I saw them in action was by formal request back in Halo 3, but haven't seen them at all in the last couple years.

If you played Bl. Ops with me, then you would know what happened to them!

Where were you looking? We are around. We guard you while you sleep.

In Halo MM, where I used to see them quite frequently. L Askan and Kylie are the only two I have ever run into in Reach, and neither had their posse with.


Yea those two along with a handful of others are the die hard Reach fans that sill frequent MM. The rest of us have been enjoying the flash flood of titles coming in recent weeks. It's a great time to be a gamer.

Also a second question. What do you think of BUNGLE?

Sorry, but BUNGLE is not real. It was just an April fools joke (in 2009) based on a horrible gaming league that would obv never amount to anything because of its terribly unbalanced gameplay, and purposefully bad map layouts.

Burrito runs a BUNGLE group, dude.

And?

I already knew that fyi.

I could take a joke and try and make it into a real thing but that won't make it any less of a joke. BUNGLE is not a real gaming league.

We will continue this discussion later. I have "things" to learn about how to better serve you.


The way to be the very best community guy is to:

1. Derail threads by posting random pictures. Best way to do so is to enter my name in Google Images. Warning, the results may horrify you.


2. Post about something related to food on the Universe forum.


3. Make everybody on here a delicious Caprese Salad with extra balsamic and onions.


4. If your mother is attractive, post her address in The Flood. Actually, I HIGHLY advise against that.


5. Post a hint to an Easter Egg in the Reach forum.


6. Give me 40$.


7. Post the entire rough storyline of Destiny's campaign and post concept art of it all over the internet.


8. This is the most important one of all. If you do ANY of these at all, it MUST be this one.



























STEP ON YOUR RIGHT FOOT, DON'T FORGET IT!!!

What's your favorite book?


I am obligated to say "The Gunslinger" by Stephen King. Life for your crop.


How would you describe yourself?


Very humbly, with very carefully chosen words.


What's your favorite game console?


Is this an interview or a softball game?


How do you feel about female gamers?


Female gamers are brave to stake out territory in a landscape where they are in the severe minority. Ironically enough, the best tailgunner who has ever "manned" the gun platform of my Wartog is a female gamer. She is also the best sniper on my team. She would break your heart, if she wasn't busy sending a bullet through it.


So would you push the one man in front of the train to stop the death of 15 people?


"The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few... or the one." ~Spock, Cpt. United Federation of Planets [retired]

This rule of thumb also applies to forum moderation. Harmony is divine. You have no rights. Play nice.


Can you make Bungie Mobile better?


No. The extent of my ability to write code goes about as far as putting forum text into italics. I might be willing to talk to the people responsible for Bungie mobile, assuming I was given some good ideas. Send me a private message if you have some. Disclaimer: This is NOT a promise to implement said ideas.


What is your area of expertise for which you were hired, and would you say that you enjoy it? Or would you rather be in a different area in which to work?


I don't know if I would categorize myself as an expert just yet, but I was hired because of my passion for coordinating action between gamers. I am fascinated by the community that people create together, using the platform of a video game. I would say that puts me in the right place.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Do you carry hand sanitizer with you at all times?

I'd recommend you make a group on the B.net; sounds like you'd enjoy it. You'll probably need one to get that serious B.net community game time that you seem to be interested in.

What is your area of expertise for which you were hired, and would you say that you enjoy it?  Or would you rather be in a different area in which to work?


I don't know if I would categorize myself as an expert just yet, but I was hired because of my passion for coordinating action between gamers.  I am fascinated by the community that people create together, using the platform of a video game.  I would say that puts me in the right place.

But, that would also put hundreds of people in the right place. So, that doesn't really answer my question.

I decided to make the question a little difficult to decipher, and it seems that worked out semi-good. Your old enough to know what I am trying to say, and the question was, put more simply for others to understand, what is it that you do for Bungie (Senior Editor [Simulation], Lead Core Tools Engineer, Technical Producer, Localization Content Manager, etc.), and if you could, would you choose something else to do?

If it sounds like I'm trying to be an ass, sorry; I'm really not trying to. Sometimes that's just how my personality shows, regardless of the situation. Don't take it the wrong way. I don't want to get in trouble for something I said that offended someone when I wasn't trying to...

I could take a joke and try and make it into a real thing but that won't make it any less of a joke. BUNGLE is not a real gaming league.
Your criteria is astounding for what constitues 'real.' Something having substance, something people consciously think about, are involved in an activity related to, and something with physical existence. None of that matters if the original intent of it wasn't what it became.

That... is hilariously childish.
:P

PS BUNGLE > MLG.

Well, MLG is real and has real sponsors, a good website with popular forums, and real tournaments with actual pro gamers.

Last I checked BUNGLE was an April fools jokes that people like you tried to turn into a real gaming league. You failed, BUNGLE isn't a real league, has no sponsors, very few people play BUNGLE customs (if any at all anymore), doesn't have its own website (to my knowledge), and the BUNGLE group is absolutely dead. So you tell me what's real, because MLG (a real gaming league) is still very well alive.

PS BUNGLE > MLG.
>.>
<.<

How does a poll in a forum packed full of biased Bungie fanboys prove anything? The average bnet user during H3's era hated MLG because most blindly claimed MLG was for people who thought they were better than everyone else when, in reality, it represented completely balanced gameplay. Obviously a poll during that time would sway in BUNGLE's direction so it proves nothing. The fact that BUNGLE won by such a small margin in that thread really shows how much of a joke it truly is.

Oh, and by the way, I know 3 legged goat and that was definitely a troll thread.

EDIT - and look at the first post in the thread you linked rofl

But how about we stay on track before we get banned for thread derailment?

Feel free to send me messages, please be willing to wait 6-8 years for a reply.

1-7 hours if you at least tried to make it readable.

Immediately if you are Yax, Telec, or legendary.

Never if you are mythic, you guys smell funny.

Where do you stand on the whole "you have no rights" thing, because, you know, rights would be nice.
