Normal Halo thread OP to return after birthday celebrations! Until then, here's a nice mini-OP:How do I get into games with TBK?
Send a FR to 'A TBK Clan II' or add a gamertag from one of the people that post in this thread. Be online. We'll send you invites. Then games will be played.
Do I need Legendary to play with you?
No, we'll just switch to non-legendary required playlists or customs. Although since about 96% of us have Legendary, you'll be putting your 600 ms bux to good use.

Breaking the habit refers to us holding the bomb behind the rock on blue base's cliff in order to run down the clock. We don't use this much. In Halo 2, it refers to holding the bomb to run down the clock on the machinery in Waterworks.

Rules spoiler'd
So for this one I think we should focus on Halo 3, since most everyone will probably be on Recon next year.
So what is the haps?
On November 9th, I'm going to post a special map and a special gametype. Play this gametype/map with a lot of other people. And then you can win prizes!
LAY THOSE PRIZES DOWN ON ME

Stipulation: only games with at least 6 people will count, and only some of your highest scoring games (the number of games I count depends on the turnout)
Prize: 1200 (15$) Microsoft Points sent to you via PM, in time for the Mythic Map Pack
Category: best screenshot
Stipulation: screenshot must be from one of your games. You MUST upload the screenshot to your fileshare to prove it came from one of those games (it'll show up as a media file when looking at the game)
I'm looking for comedy here. Bonus points if the screenshot has an elite in it. It's my fucking money, my contest decision!

which will be ordered and shipped to you as fast as humanly possible upon release.
You can gain up to one spot in the raffle per category you enter, for up to 3 entries! I will be holding more opportunities throught the year to earn more raffle spots, this is the probably going to be the easiest ones to get though.
FINE PRINT MOTHERFUCKERS READ IT
I reserve the right to not award prizes. Microsoft Points may come after Mythic Map Pack release. I reserve the right to switch out prizes with one of equal or lesser value. Halo 3 Recon will be replaced with 3200MS points if MS is going to charge 60$ for it. Must be 18 or have parent's permission to enter contest. Enter as long as you have a way to redeem United States prepaid codes. If for some reason I cannot give you a prize due to location/legal issues, I will make a 20$ donation in your name to either Child's Play or the Brian Morden Foundation, your choice. You must have a account on the PA forums with a registration date of no later than October 1, 2008. Multiple accounts = banned from contest
Edit: I'm an idiot. My bad.
Also victory at being first in the recon drawing!

I had just picked up rockets, and as soon as I jumped in the cannon I noticed something. A Hornet!
I shot it down while I was in the middle of the cannon jump. I felt pretty great.
Going to try to upload it on Gamevee.
It's a celebration, bitches. Fyre will post a real op after our 4 year anniversary.

I don't even remember that, mang
Could be worse, could be a Thrill alt.
There was a pretty cool Warthog from the beta, but I couldn't find it. Had to use some guys Ghost.

Why you got to be misrepresenting me man
it's hard to read the ugly ass quotetrees over there, if you can figure out who actually said it i'll fix it
but it's not like plat is about the truth anyway
like you know, calling me a power hungry person when 99.9% of my moderation history on the forums is thread sticks/unsticks and edits and only 1 or 2 locks
but I guess it's more fun to just make shit up while people sit around and think about days gone by because they are attached to a fucking internet forum
oh shi-
i'll post up my Forward Unto Dawn from BKN&B in a bit
I need money.
Thankfully I still have the preorder code for the bonus Sack outfits or whatever.
I want to at least look like I remember how to play this game on Sunday.
Hopefully I can do some crap to enter the contest. Propers to you fyrewulf, it's a really cool idea.
Also I'll be up for some Halo soon since I'm skipping out on my super-early class tomorrow in favor of a) sleep, and b) voting. Prof doesn't even take attendance, so half the class has never shown up anyway outside of tests. And I somehow manage to get B+s on the tests with very little notes taken and no studying at all.
Edit: How the hell am I gonna fit two sets of those damn plastic instruments in my room...
Nibbler that pic is awesome.
And I was in a EB games in Birmingham this past weekend and my cousin and I tried out Rock Band 2. That game is fucking hard.
Sell them and realize you have worshipped at the altar of fools!
Alternatively, examine storing everything in handy lockers, cabinets, trashcans and the like - nobody searches those things for items except you. Unless they do.
Plus, I figure I can move the PS3 to the living room and let my sister and her friends have control over RB1, while I preserve RB2 to myself and my friends. That'll shut her up about me never letting her play it.
I, uh. I was making a reference to Fallout 3 there, champ. You store stuff in other stuff.
Oh.
Goddammit Beeb.
i'll be all up on halo when busy week stops being busy
So busy. Playing Fallout.
Man I would so love that Nariko code. :P
