Subject: S'Pht Hits Fan: Earth Doomed

The Weekly World News, that bastion of truth and wisdom and freedom of the press, is reporting a disturbing news story. Earthlings are collecting the flags of Alien Nations. Presumably trading and acquiring them via places like eBay, without giving thought to where these flags come from. Especially disturbing is the most prized flag of all.

Interesting indeed... *goes to ebay*

That is indeed rather disturbing.

Edit: Second glance does show the Marathon logo, I knew I've seen it somewhere before and it turns out it was in Halo 1.

its like a large force of win going through fusion, thus creating a chain reaction of a huge asplosion of win destroying any fail within its awesomeness.

It's the Marathon Symbol, one of Bungie's games.

I am confused. What does this wierd flag have to do with bungie, other then apparently looking simaler to the marathon symbol. On the same matter, how did this make the front page of bungie dot net?

..... Was someone drinking?


Btw, 3rd or 4th post ever.

It's not similar. it's the Marathon symbol. Quit yer whining. It didn't cost nothin'.

(10:19:49 PM) Scruss: oh and pezza, i saw what you did to that cat
(10:20:17 PM) Pezza: You were the one with the video camera breathing heavily. Of course you saw.

What the devil... This had to have been on purpose.

Just remember... I keep it real...

I need to get hold of that flag and stick it in my yard. See, Bungie is taking over the world, one planet at a time. Bungie is sending their game in the form of a secret code and aliens are picking them up. Just wait till the Cov. find them.

Just what I needed at 4:26 on a Monday. Thanks for that end-of-the-day giggle.

Wait....I have to ask, who pointed this out to you? Or do you actually have somebody in-house who reads...::shudder:: tabloids??

CJ Cowan spotted it. He claims he accidentally picked it up instead of the new yorker.

Is CJ going to be forced to spend a week working with the Webmaster as punishment for reading tabloids?

"You're never gonna fight me, I'll wipe the world away"

I know this is off topic but since Frankie seems to look at this thread, I figured I'd asked, How did your panel go at PAX, did you answer the age old question about how Bungie feels about its fans.
