Custom Challenge Heads-Up
This week's Halo Bulletin had word of a Custom Challenge available on Halo Waypoint that could get you 10x the normal credits - I ran into a little bit of trouble this afternoon, and wanted to pass along something I learned. Skulls are important - if your activated skulls don't EXACTLY match the skulls listed in the challenge, you will NOT get the credits. (Since the available skulls for challenges are Gold-only, this means that you cannot have any silver skulls activated while doing a Custom Campaign Challenge.) I play with the Grunt Birthday Party and IWHBYD skulls activated at almost all times - I hardly even thing about them any more. If you do this too, remember to turn them off before doing Custom Challenges. (Louis Wu 04:18:39 UTC) (permalink) 
Archetype
NeoGAF's senador pointed out a fan-made sci-fi short called Archetype - it has some serious Halo vibes. Really cool stuff - check it out!

Fails of the Weak #71
It's time for another Fails of the Weak - Episode 71 has a bunch of clips of people... well, failing. You can see it at both AchievementHunter.com and YouTube (thanks, hezekiah). (Louis Wu 04:06:22 UTC) (permalink) 
The Art of Halo 3, affordably (UK only)
Tom Pritchard is selling a used but good condition copy of The Art of Halo 3 (UK only) on eBay - one of the more reasonable prices I've seen. If you're in the UK, and you want this book... go bid! (Louis Wu 03:58:12 UTC) (permalink) 
Dust and Echoes, Episode 1
The Woaf sent word that he and his buddy Tom have put together a new podcast, called Dust and Echoes - it's the first Halo-centric podcast from a Britsh perspective. Go listen to the first episode! (He wanted to warn folks that the language is definitely PG-rated; might not cut it in a work environment.)
