so Dmand, Rontom, and I got to spamming last night about stuff, and one thing that came up, was some sort of a Humpday Challenge with you ES employees

it started about something as a reward of soem sort for being active and intelligent on these forums

- Prominant members' screen names in games credits

- Prominant members' screen names as cheats

then in moved on to some cooler stuff...then later back to spam, but the cool stuff was:

- A humpday challenge between some ES employees (preferably Thunder and Paragon) vs. the Prominant Forum members (Ie. dmand, ronton, and me :p) (Team ES vs Team FW)

- possibly have this Humpday as a pre-release advertising type thing, to get some awareness for this games launch

and i think i forgot to put this, but have it be Skirmish battles with ES vs the FW (forum whores) in HW, of course, else it'd hardly advertise the game, most likely all 1v1 games unless this game will support more than 2 players

but yea, just an idea, and it doesn't HAVE to be us, but any members you guys feel contributed enough to the forums

Signature removed. - Thunder

Well said..

Also we had added like a chance to tour the ES facility... But having our usernames at the end of the credits or as a cheat code would be uber cool.

And like Ninja said we are not necessarily the ones. But we were thinking like the top 10 contributers or top 10 percent....

not that were forfeiting our chances at the humpday challenge :p

Lol they wouldn't have you included in credits as a prize.

 1.Only Thunder Paragon and the other MODS really know who you are

2. People in the credits have helped alot not just winning a game agaisnt MODS

3. The rest of the ES team probally wouldn't be happy with the idea see number 1^

Maybe like a thing after the credits like. And a small thanks to our dedicated fans. Then a small top ten list scrolls.

yea, exactly :p plus maybe when this gamegets off the ground a little, the other ppl would be more active, geez

although there is like no chance of it happening, it'd be cool if they did like a weekly thing, for two or three months or so, in which people would register at the beginning and then ES will choose around 50 people and give them an email saying that they get to play them, a code to unlock it, and the time of day they get to play.  The code will only be valid for that time period and once the time is up, it will stop working and you'll be taken out of the names of registered people.  If your not available at the given time, you can ask to be put back in to have a chance to be chosen for another time/day.  It could be every Saturday or something.  about 10 employees can play 10 of the chosen names for an hour, then another ten employees can take the next hour and next 10 names, and so on, until all 50 people have played for an hour.  During the next week, they will choose another 50 people to play the coming Saturday.  This would be a really good way to get feedback on how to better the game and to make people who are skeptical begin to believe in the game's potential.  Also, it makes it so people wouldn't have to sit and take on here just to be able to play the game.  I highly doubt it'll happen though, so i probably typed this long message for little reason, but it'd still be awesome.

<---Thanks NinjaTheory

^^ awesome forums

no fair, im not top ten.

ill be one of this days, but i first need to get to 1000+ posts ...

Hmmm.

I think we are a long, long way from any such competition even being possible; that is if there is a beta/demo of the game (which is undetermined at this point).  Though I could be convinced to meet up and play some of the Halo3 public beta once it starts.  Though no promises of any sort of reward, other than laughing over my dead body.

Hehe, I'd be up for that.

Thanks for the response anyways.... Keep up the good work anyways

Yeah! Now you guys are what I call MOD's! People who actually run the community, not just watch it. I'd be really fun to play the creators of HaloWars.

And, what's the deal Ninja? Consiquently there are 10 people in the top 10, and you mentioned 2 of those. What about the rest of us?

 

P.S. I can only think of 9 out of the top 10

Here they are, in order of post count

1. Skita1
2. Dmand
3. UNSC AI #23
4. Rotaretlibo
5. NinjaTheory
6. NewGuy
7. Idie
8. Ryce
9. ToasterKing

The last person would have a post count somwhere above 400, or be somewhere in that range. Who is it. Sorry if I don't know who it is

there's nothing wrong with that.
