It's not you, it's us. We just need our space right now.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I think DrB meant that Bungie is not (currently) doing a selection process for new testers right now and may be preparing for something later on. Thus no one is getting any emails to participate.

Love playing custom games?

Well come join Customs Evolved

We are group dedicated to playing custom games, map testing, game nights, etc. Anyone is welcomed to join, and we hope to have as much fun as possible!

I have a question.

In the Bungie Research page, where it says:

Playtests and Usability Testing at Bungie
Does it mean actually at Bungie studios?

Im from Canada and I think it would be very inconvenient if we had to go to Bungie.

  • 11.30.2011 12:11 PM PDT

I'm awesome...No seriously I am.

Finally, a beta i can join cause i am older than 14. Some of my dreams just came true. not all, just some.

It's not hard to make personal calls to Mr. Newell. It would be amazing expression of diplomacy between the studios to call and ask him for stickers.

Oh, and record the call for posterity.

My Best Bungie moment: finally beating all the Halo games on solo legendary.
My Worst Bungie moment: not seeing giant stuffie grunts in the Bungie store.

Imagine that Valve and Bungie combined together to make the most epic game that could ever exist, and together the communities shall crush all enemies and opposition against Bungies domination of the world Mwahahaha....
Oh yeah Valve will also have a say in everything, we are friends after all are we.....

Oh yeah who would like this if it was implemented in their school.

-The full bottle is a silent bottle.

you know, I think I must have redone that survey a good 5 times, and every time, I widen my interests and broaden my specifications a little bit more, just in case it'll increase my chances of being chosen.

When the game is over, the king and pawn go into the same box

When they say it's not you, it's us... they mean it's you.

Having filled this out a long time ago, I can't help but feel this point is being driven into my face. Quite securely.
