I'm trying to become an '04, but it's not working too well."

DMGs Weekly What's Update! Brought to you by NyQuil.

Well, here we stand at the end of a long, mucus filled week. The only thing that is still bothering my well-being is the scratchy throat syndrome, leading people to believe that i'm a 70 year old over the phone.

Over at REI [Recreational Equipment Incorporated], we had our annual Inventory on Sunday. The shift was 4:30 PM to 11:30 PM. This 7 hour shift felt like a millennium, scanning each individual package with the assigned handheld. The fever of 102 didn't help the cause, but it was nice. The only thing heard throughout the store was the constant *beep* of successfully counting the SKU of whatever item we were assigned. I myself had to count the following:
1. Camping Furniture
2. Headlamps
3. Lanterns, Flashlights, Batteries
4. Knives, Multitools, Accessories
5. GPS accessories, Geo-caching accessories
6. Sunglasses, Glacierglasses
7. Kayaking accessories
8. Car Rack accessories.

I must say, the amount of red tape was astounding. Each section was taped off into 8 or so different sections to divide the racks into acceptable numbers for the scanners, to avoid any malfunctions from terrible software being overloaded by small numbers. My hands, stained with sweat... tears... blood... overcame the 100's of batteries and other assorted items for a successful evening. Free chipotle was the name of the game, though. Gotta love those Company paid lunches. Barbacoaaaaaaa

My poor brother, though. He was assigned the duty of Socks. 7 hours of counting nothing but soft, fuzzy, non-sharp socks. By the end of the night, he was almost insane... as if his brain had been infected with some sort of sock lint. Time will tell, though. If he starts buying socks in mass quantities, or says 'sock' more than 5 times per sentence, we'll know we have a problem.

As for the rest of the week, i was bedridden from that terrible cold. MW3 helped me get through most of it, then the grand 21st birthday party of my closest friend sealed the demise of those nasty germs. You know it's a good party when all of your 65 cups and glasses have been used, AKA not a single "full" cup was found throughout his house. You know, that annoying thing where you're cleaning and you find the 3 to 5 cups of unsipped alcohol, soda, water, etc? Not a single one. The only drops of alcohol not consumed were found on the garage floor next to the pong table.

*word of advice: You know that friend of yours that enjoys debating every single thing you say? Don't invite him to play beerpong. Every turn will take 5-10 minutes purely from arguing on how something is bullspit.


Aside from those things, fairly un-eventful week. I wish i could tell you guys more, but we're still in dark mode over here. I WILL give you two tidbits about the new DMG-IP, though.

1. It's not of the male gender
2. It's arriving sometime early spring.

I might be missing something, but what does that have to do with this tread or Bungie?

Why can I never find the place to submit questions to the mail sack? IS it in a thread on the community or in a group?

It's a thread in the Community. It was up for a couple days.

DeeJ, are the newbies going to be a huge contender in the Pentathlon this year? Grizzled Ancients have been there and done that :P

Why, the community, of course.
What motivates you to visit the website of a developer that has sworn to keep all of its secrets until a time at which they can be told?
Well put. We have a big problem with people presuming Bungie is a single person on the B.net.
Bungie is not unified by a singular mind. Our big, happy family is more like a multi-headed hydra with colliding opinions and conflicting passions. There are hundreds of us. While we can all agree on many things, there is no way we can settle on one genre of music.
One miscalculation and we'll tear you apart. Good luck. :D
As soon as I find a normal user, I will raise them up on a pedestal as my favourite. Each of you displays a dangerously abnormal love for the playing of great games. For that, we are eternally grateful, and cautiously terrified.

Absolutely. With our advances in character rigging and performance capture you can expect truly dynamic and expressive asses.
Too good

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.

OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

Is it bad that when I read each question, I knew pretty much everyone in that batch?

Oh, shame on my poor soul.

I just want to thank you for settling that 5 year debate with my friend. I laughed pretty hard at the picture, and I am glad that you guys agree with me that space flight triumphs over land-locked lizard, lol.

Looking forward to the Pentathlon write-up!
