Bungie's Global Challenges - via RSS
A couple of weeks ago, brokenwatch (the name is not unknown here) posted some quick code on NeoGAF, showing you how to host your own RSS feed for Bungie's daily challenges. Well, not everyone has the resources to host a feed - so we've taken the liberty of doing this for you. (We've also cleaned up the output a little, for validation purposes, and cached the result, so that there's no hit on Bungie's servers for this content.) It's pretty bare-bones... but that's all that's really needed here. Load this in your favorite RSS reader, and you've got a tiny, easy-to-read record of today's challenges! (Thanks to Yossarian Drew for the push we needed to make this live.) (Louis Wu 14:37:13 UTC)

Emblem Checker works again
Thanks to brokenwatch, of H2 Advanced Stats, for sending along the fixes needed to make our Gamertag emblem checker work again after Bungie.net's tweaks recently. Sorry for the downtime! (Louis Wu 13:35:01 UTC)

Stats Tracking and Emblem Checking
brokenwatch and UNEXPECTED62 have been working on a pretty cool 'Halo 2 Advanced Stats' page; drop in your gamertag, and get a WHOLE lot of info (over time). Because of the demand for this, if you add your tag today, it'll be a day or so before you show up on their pages. After that, though, it'll track you, even through purges. A tiny subpiece of this an emblem checker; put in a gamertag, it spits out that person's emblem. brokenwatch released this code on the Bungie.net forum - we put a little input script on the front of it, and you can find it here. (We'll toss a link up in our forum, as well; that's probably one of the most common places people would WANT this.) It's unclear how long all of this will continue to work; it relies on Bungie's good will in allowing other sites (like ours) to leech off their resources, and the thread above has an ominous post from Achronos about that very subject.
