Secondly, Onyx is -- like you said -- the biggest joke in the world. Even in the Beta when The Arena was heavily used, I still got Onyx. Interestingly enough, I still find people better than me (although that has probably resulted in my reduced gaming since the Beta). My point is simple: The Arena doesn't mean -blam!-.
Onyx based on the top 5% of the total population, you must be a bit thick if you think it was harder to get an Onyx when there were more people playing Arena. Sure, there were a lot of better people playing then, but there were retards en masse as well. Also, Arena is probably the second-best playlist in Reach right now.
