Subject: Lets have another reverse mailsack!

You look around.You fire your weapon before you realize.
Its just me. I fall and you walk up. You cry why.
When i pop up. You look at me in wonder. I say,"ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL."
You bend to my will and go to a cliff, walk off, and fall.
The last thing you hear is me stating as fact,"All will fail the battle of life, you just went early"

I feel like it was a lot of extra work for DeeJ.


I'm all for it, simply for that reason.

"Living to smile, and not to succeed; smiling to inspire happiness, not to give the illusion you are happy; creativity and music to inspire smiling, which in turn inspires happiness; being nice to be happy, not for being perceived a good person."

I myself am up for it, seems like it could be interesting what they might wish to know about us. Also, we must make the challenge difficult beyond all measure.

One does not choose a destiny, his destiny is bestowed, shaped and formed, from the soul.

I've taken the liberty to create This Group

Feel free to join up. Although we don't have the green light from DeeJ, we can still start brainstorming.

Feel free to post any ideas, and or show support for the reverse Mailsack.

Let's hope it happens!

Yes, Hoobla. Yes. The ReverSack was a bit of a logistical nightmare in its original manifestation. Look at it this way...

When I ask the Bungie Community for questions, I am drawing from a pool of thousands of people. Of that, hundreds are bold and inquisitive enough to ask questions. Those questions are distilled down based on what I might provoke a good answer, what might appeal to the Bungie panel, and what won't get me fired for discussing. Once the Bungie panel weighs in, I have about a dozen participants who are completing the ritual. Thus, every step in the process refines the dialogue to a delicious vintage.

When I reverse the flow, the final edit is like trying to drink from a firehose. When Bungie asks the questions, and a thousand passionate gamers answer, it becomes really hard to choose what makes the cut. This is not to say that I am lazy - I have a hard time disqualifying anything that any of you have to say when you are being sincere about what who you are or why you love games. That's all great stuff.

So...

The Reverse Mail Sack idea is flawed in its original execution. However, if I select a target audience to participate, it might be more doable. Another idea that was popular last week was to conduct more interviews with notable community members (I do listen). If we fuse that idea with the notion of a ReverSack, we just might have something. Unfortunately, this requires again that I play favorites, which I don't think anyone enjoys.

So, how should I choose those among you who should answer?

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

As a community we could elect a panel similar to what you guys do. Since this is the first one we do like this it could be the people in this thread. That'd make things easier and die down the entries

Yes Costco. I need a 50lb bag...I mean sack of sugar.

Let the ninjas decide. They have a fair bit of interaction around here, and should know who the more notable members are.

Draw out of a hat.

As in. Print out a list of active members (non-absent), cut them into little rectangles, mix them up in a bowl, and draw out 10.

I heard the people with blue bars are fairly respectable and outstanding community members. You could try a few of them.

Like I said, we choose a panel consisting of people in this thread, and if we continue doing these every now and then we choose members randomly.

That's pretty fair

Chief vs the scarab? I find that hard to believe to roundhouse boot the scarab's figurative emotion out of the gaming zone.
