I'm rootin' for Middle School this year. Grizzled Ancients are too old to put up a fight. And the Newbies don't have enough experience.

Yes, my point is valid with these arguments.

Irrelevant, Marty has coffee.
Damn, I forgot the other variables. Coffee is a serious skill booster.

In the past couple of years I have been rooting for the Middle School. However, this year I think I'm going to side with The Grizzled Ancients.

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

I'd enjoy seeing some love sent towards the Middle School.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

Middle School, pretty kick-ass people.

Experience and treachery beats wide-eyed enthusiasm, bland middle-agers, and lazy old folks with no battle scars.

Grizzled Ancients shall take the cup again!

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.

Grizzled Ancients never win I swear. This years going to be different - I have faith in the Grizzled's.

Don't let me down.

So much fighting talk! maybe you can settle this with a game of Street Countdown.

But seriously, Newbies are going to win. Out with the old. Urk and DeeJ side by side, enough said.

It'll be like Shanghai Noon.

Ah - but Urk and DeeJ will be facing off across school lines. And while they destroy one another, other schools will be seizing victory!

All this fighting talk will be settled by games, but some will be far more dangerous than the noble sport of Street Countdown (at least judging from the imprints in our wall from recent practice sessions).

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

Webmaster must've been sharing his brew.


I am even more excited for the games. Maybe it will end up like the Hangover.
