Fire Team Zulu - Flying Ace/Blowhards
FyreWulff dropped by with word of the latest Fire Team Zulu challenge - Flying Ace is a Campaign run suggested by a fan (Kikowani Station, Heroic, bunch of skulls, but the critical one is Iron), while Blowhards is a Firefight challenge on Windward. Go check 'em both out! (Louis Wu 18:48:31 UTC) (permalink)
Fall of Beta, Pages 11-12
pete_the_duck posted pages 11-12 of his ongoing 'Fall of Beta' storyline - he apologizes for the artwork, but it looks fine to me! (Louis Wu 15:57:36 UTC) (permalink)
Barcode
TTL Demag0gue stopped in to let us know that the newest Reclaimer is live - gotta watch those exploding things... (Louis Wu 15:52:32 UTC) (permalink)
How to Play Well With Others
Brian Gilmore sent word that the latest Teabag Prevention article is up - 'How to Play Well With Others'. He figured it would be helpful, given that the Double EXP Weekend list is team-oriented... (Louis Wu 15:47:21 UTC) (permalink)
Podtacular 230: This Spartan Life Interview
Dust Storm let us know that Podtacular 230 is out - it features Damian Lacedamian from This Spartan Life. Discussion includes upcoming TSL offerings on Halo Waypoint (the next one launches tomorrow!) - good stuff! Go listen. (Louis Wu 14:07:29 UTC) (permalink)
You wouldn't like him when he's angry.
Well... she hit it. (Geez. It's impossible to make a statement about Hawty McBloggy without a potential double entendre, it seems.) Friday Caption Fun has made it to 100 rounds, and in honor of the extra digit, she's broken the 'no photoshop' rule. Check out the latest shot... and see what you can come up with!

Paper Marine Helmet
hyokin decided to put together a paper Marine helmet - took him a few hours. Amazing what you can do with a few hours! (Louis Wu 10:58:54 UTC) (permalink)
Deja View Analysis
Jagged went through the Deja View video second by second, and pulled out many of the notable tidbits; it's the first list of its kind I've seen. Pretty impressive list! (Louis Wu 10:57:36 UTC) (permalink)
Relentless Teaser
Kral let us know that he's finished up a teaser for Chrisdx1's upcoming montage called "Relentless" - you can find it on YouTube, or grab a downloadable version from FileFront (720p, 71 mb). Just a minute of gameplay, but some nice synching. Take a look! (Louis Wu 10:56:58 UTC) (permalink)
Customs Clan Does Halo 3
What happens when a group of fans get together and decide to see how funny a cutscene can be if the dialogue is redone with odd voices? One answer can be found on YouTube - the Customs Clan redid the final Floodgate cutscene. (Miranda sounds like Daffy Duck!) Oh, the things we do when we have too much time on our hands...

Putting out the Fires
Hawty McBloggy solicited submissions for a collection of screenshots showing off fans wearing the Bungie-only flames that were made available to the entire community on Wednesday - she got so many she had to put them up in two parts. (Part 1 | Part 2) And while the presentation isn't nearly as pretty, or as big (and some of the images overlap Hawty's collections), our forum started to do the same thing - you'll find the thread here. Thanks, once again, to Bungie, for opening their closet and allowing us a brief but shining moment of dress-up! (Remember that you can wear this any time in Reach, simply by purchasing the Legendary Edition of the game.) (Louis Wu 10:54:28 UTC) (permalink)

Double EXP Weekend: Maption Sack
Yesterday was a busy day, so we hope you'll forgive the oversight... but at 2pm PT, Maption Sack went live as the Double EXP Playlist for the weekend. 56 fan-created maps, in a mix of slayer/objective 4v4 gametypes... how can you go wrong? Take advantage; it's only around until Monday morning! (Louis Wu 10:51:15 UTC) (permalink)
