FF Writers - incompetent readers?
Eight new stories in the Fan Fiction section today. (I had to delete a few whose authors thought that the 'Do not use the Poem button for a story simply because you don't have 750 words' directive didn't actually apply to THEM.) Go read. (Louis Wu 16:24:52 UTC)

Tied The Leader Weekly Update
XerxdeeJ put up a note on our forum - it's time for another weekly recap of Tied the Leader, his Halo-related blog. The two most recent, No Games Played and Open Letter to the Sniper, both resonated with me. Go read! (Louis Wu 14:53:12 UTC)

The Fist of Justice
Wonga. SketchFactor posted a Banhammer Update a few hours ago, over at Bungie.net (thanks, Dry Ice, for noticing) - in the first 24 hours of AU4.0's existence, 2550 (wouldn't it have been nice if it had been 2552, instead?) people have been permanently banned from Halo 2 Matchmaking. Nice! There's also a mini-faq addressing some of the rumors swirling around - go read. (Louis Wu 00:49:35 UTC)

Finding change in the cushions
Narcogen has taken another look at the 'Digital Couch' concept - has Bungie lived up to its promise of providing us with a virtual extension of our physical living room, or are real-life gatherings still the only way to enjoy gameplay? He makes some good points - go read the latest Narc's Retort! (Louis Wu 15:14:37 UTC)

Zee Smack, she eez coming!
Wow. Go check out Bungie.net - there's a new article up, explaining how tomorrow, July 20, Autoupdate 4 will be released - if you've got modded content on your box, and you connect to Live, you'll be banned from matchmaking. Period. Permanent, no appeals. You've been warned... (There's more info, including details - go read. And comment on our forum!) (Louis Wu 22:54:44 UTC)

Magnetic Induction Toilet Flushes
The Weekly What's Update is online at Bungie.net - and this week, it's mostly being used as a blog by Frankie, to talk about cheaters, and what losers they are. A fine, fine read, with a 2-week window of time before some major changes go into effect... go read. Plus, there's a great poster. (Lots of people told us about this, but Bungie was first.)

HHC with Team Korea
Another thing that went up while I was wasting my evening away on Xbox Live was the writeup of the most recent Halo 2 Humpday Challenge - it wasn't really on Humpday this time, it was Friday night/Saturday morning (depending on which team's frame of reference you're using), but it was a solid matchup between Bungie and Team Korea. (It was a big enough deal on the Korean end that there was an audience.) Go read the writeup - and for once, SketchFactor didn't need to make up excuses as to why Bungie lost... because they didn't lose. Good writeup - nice games! (Louis Wu 04:55:08 UTC)

117649 Reproachable Instigation
Eep - almost forgot. Jillybean updated the Halo Story page with some interesting speculation from the fans. There would have been more, but her dog ate it. Or maybe it was her computer. I can't remember. Go read what's there, though. (Louis Wu 22:34:51 UTC)

Map Pack data at Bungie.net
For anyone having trouble downloading the five new maps on Xbox Live, SketchFactor has reprinted Major Nelson's Downloadable Content FAQ - go read it at Bungie.net. And yes, we know about the Relic teleporter glitch. (For those who don't - it's quite simple to pass through the teleporter, in either direction, by simply crouch-jumping on top of the platforms.) No, it won't kill matchmaking. It just means there's one more place to watch at the start of the game. (Louis Wu 21:32:59 UTC)

Just play the game, dagnabbit!
Bungie's posted this week's Weekly What's Update a bit earlier than usual (and yes, you were first, Nedus) - it focuses almost exclusively on cheating. There's a bit of discussion of the problem involving modded maps - the advice is to hang tight for a little while, things WILL get better. There's another auto-update coming in a couple of weeks that will make things much harder for cheaters, and much easier for the rest of us. And oh, yeah - the maps that will be available for purchase next week (both over Xbox Live and via a store-bought DVD) will be free as of August 30. If you can wait 2 months, you can save a few bucks. Go read! (Louis Wu 19:33:23 UTC)
