So this time around I went with Self Destruct - former MoM and damn good GFX artist. But he's lousy at shapes. Shapes are his absolute weakness. You'll notice one of the questions is dated but here we go: DD: "How did you land on 343i.org?" SD: "The first forum I ever joined was Halo4Nation in the summer of 2012. Unfortunately by summer 2013 the place was nearly dead, and I was forced to search for a suitable replacement. This eventually lead me to 343iCF in June of 2013. Initially I assumed it was 343i's stomping grounds, but I quickly discovered it had no relation to the company (I learned later on that there were a few connections, but not many). The place looked high quality (meeting my ridiculously high standards), and snazzy so I decided to join up on June 13th, and see what happened." DD: "I came here looking for the official website too when I started but quickly figured out that it wasn't it and stayed because it was awesome. So besides the quality of the site, what has kept you around here?" SD: "1: Activity. Most days on 343iCF are nearly the same as H4N at the height of it's popularity in 2012. 2: Frequency of contests, and events that people here host (this was very apparent in early 2014). 3: The amount of just downright funny people to talk to. 4: The ranks, and awards. It may sound dumb, but I was a sucker for these things after I joined, and I still see people here indulge in this. Not so much anymore since I've become uninterested (it seems a little pointless now). However I'd definitely try to get past Dedicated if another user group is added. 5: And finally (we all knew this would come), to talk about Halo, and other crap." DD: "Those are good answers. Honestly everyone was into ranking up and gaining site Awards at one point or another lol you're not the only one that's for sure. Do you have an Award that you're most proud of?" SD: "The MoM award. Notoriety, and Quality Posts come in second." DD: "I thought you might pick that one that's a very good one in my opinion. SD what keeps you busiest when you're on the site? What do you like to do the most I mean." SD: "Messing around in the Shoutbox, and hosting/playing the Mafia games." DD: "Mafia has been going on for a long time and it's very popular on the site I noticed! Are there any Events you're looking forward to or that you want to see this year?" SD: "Old vs. New is #1. I'm just hoping I can actually make an Event this time since I've been absent for more than a month. I'd also love to see Staff/Mods vs. Members, or one of Boss's Clue Events." DD: "Those are all my favorite Community Events for sure and I'm psyched about Old vs New coming up in a few days. I hope we get enough attendees. The Calendar is back on the sidebar of the forums page. Do you think that'll be useful in the future for announcing Events?" SD: "Heck yes. " DD: "Great I do too and I'm glad it's back! SD you're known for being a great artist in drawing and GFX. How long have you been doing those things?" SD: "Basically from around 3-5 years old. I started doing Graphics later on." DD: "That's a lot of time to hone your skills. I do all my GFX work on MS Paint because I'm a boss. So the Hunt the Truth countdown ended recently and we got some details on a war journalist named Benjamin Giraud. What do you think of the new character aspect 343 introduced?" SD: "Giraud seems interesting, and the voice acting feels convincing. There's not much to work with, so at this moment I'm a tad bit neutral on his character. I want to see how intricate, and thought out this "Hunt The Truth" thing really is, and if Benjamin Giraud has a larger role than what's said about him (like if he becomes a criminal for asking too many questions)." DD: "True we don't know much yet, those are interesting thoughts though. Do you think it's best for Halo 5: Guardians to release this year or would it be better for 343 to wait until next year (if they were ever not being rushed)?" SD: "I'd rather have Halo 5 release next year, and more of the 343 team working on overdrive to fix the MCC... this goes both ways for the game being rushed, or not." DD: "Same here I would rather have this game be everything we want it to be. Alright Self Destruct, you're a previous MoM, continuous name of the Top 15 List, and a hell of a member. Do you have any words of wisdom for the newer members we're seeing more of lately maybe for being successful on the site?" SD: "Posts: Quality > Quantity. Be yourself, and treat the girl members like everyone else. Try not to turn the SB into depression central (the topic may be serious, but we're all here to have fun. This hinders that... not to mention it becomes awkward for everyone). Join the Contests, and Events pls. That's all I got. Thanks for interviewing me, Dirty Dan. " And that was that! I'm real grateful to Self Destruct for agreeing to be interviewed and I'm glad we got it done! Sorry it took so long to post ;3. Hail .- 7 replies

Sunday, November 2nd, 4 pm EST, 9 pm GMT Converter: http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc [the time is subject to change] Left 4 Dead 2 Event. Self explanatory. We'll be playing Versus for a large chunk of the Event, but I'm open to playing a different mode if the attendees want to. If we end up having less people than normal then we'll most likely just play Campaign or Versus Matchmaking. Again this is up to the attendees. 1:Say you're joining, and post your GT (if you don't have your GT below your name). I will then include you on the list. I don't care if you post things that have nothing to do with the Event on here, but please tell me if you can join beforehand before you do. 2:A few hours (maybe just an hour) before the actual time of the Event I will host a pre-party to screw around in. Send me a message, and I'll invite you. It is not mandatory to join the pre-party, so you can wait until the actual party starts, or a little after if you're a"late bloomer". If you can't join, please tell me, and I'll remove your name from the list and open a spot for joining. 3:When the time comes I will be lurking in the Shoutbox to invite people, and after everyone's in I will launch the game-night... and the shenanigans will begin!

[the MoM banner is causing derpness within the thread, sorry] This has been a loong time coming... and it's finally here (ala 666th post :spiteful: ) Sunday, August 17th, 2 pm EST, 7 pm GMT Converter: http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc [the time is subject to change] [banner, and topic name will be changed to suite a game change] I know, you're wondering how I'm going to do this... well here's my plan. 1: Say you're joining, and post your GT.

Bip. Bap. Bam- WAIT! Wrong game! We're not doing ODST just yet! Whoops. Anyway, me and Self Destruct have teamed up to form THE BEST DUO EVER (don't quote me on that) and we've begun our long (short) and enduring (horrible) partnership with one of my favorite RTS games Total War Rome II! Wait... It's not TW Rome II? We don't do PC playdates? What the hell is that crap! Anyway, HALO WARS. We'll be playing Sunday the 21st, or maybe a different time depending on if SD says it's okay, I never discussed times. From about 1pm-3pm, so three hours or whatever, it may go longer, don't quote me on that either. Halo Wars is 6 people so once we reach the six person cap, I'm sorry but you'll have to wait for someone to drop out before you can join in. Now some rules that Self Destruct approved (not). 1. Have fun and RUSH ALL THE BASES! 2. If you berate or attack another member, I do not care what the reason is, you will be booted swiftly and possibly reported on-site if the attack is severe enough. 3. Cursing is permitted so long as it isn't derogatory toward a member or any group of people or places, and you don't curse in every word you say. 4. No talking behind a member's back, neither myself or SD will tolerate it, you will be booted swiftly. 5. If you show up late, your spot belongs to the next person, I'm sorry but I want to fill up and we can't wait two hours for you, however there will likely be more spots open later, so you'll have to endure a short wait I'm afraid. 6. If I hear P34nut do that stupid sound he did last time I will flip out. I promise you I will flip out to insane degrees. 7. If anyone mentions Frozen I have the right to slap you in the face. (6 and 7 were lies. Okay not 6.) Memba List: 1. Edward Kenway 2. Self Destruct 3. Butch Flowers 4. rrhuntington -CANCELLED- 5. Bnus 6. Yang Xiao Long JOIN UP YOU BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE! Update: We are now full, you can still however sign up, just expect a delay UNLESS we get 6 more members, in which case I will assign one of them to start a separate lobby that day.

Hello, and welcome to the speech thingy! I'm not good as speeches... like at all. But I will try my best to make this bearable for everyone! This speech will probably be shorter than most of the MoM speeches, but I don't give a hoot. I had fun, and that's all that matters! Prepare for weirdness... 1st and foremost... hey there... 2nd... I like tacos. 3rd... and this one is important... This. Is. MY. SWAMP. . . . . . Seriously, this is such a great honor. I'm flattered that the powers at be bestowed upon me such a renowned title, and I can never fully express my gratitude and gratefulness for that fact. You are the best people around, and I'd never trade you in a million years. Yeees, even you Greenies and Burples. #RedneckSelection2014 It's hard to believe that just last year, in the wee month of June, that I was just a Greenie lookin for some change on the streets, and occasionally haggling some Bystanders with my weird Hobo speeches. (Greenie PRIDE). I joined thinking this site was the official 343 Industries website (I thought Waypoint was just for Halo), and I bopped into the Shoutbox to chat with a few members... I don't remember which ones specifically BUT I remember I did leave a good impression on some of the people who were there. I thought the place was iight (don't judge me), and lo and behold I decided to stay. Due to hard work, and dedication I managed to reach the o-so-burple rank of Trusted Member. Then Dedicated slowly followed suite! Hail Hydra Keeping up with my naturally strange, and off-putting demeanor, most people would see me haunting the Shoutbox for hours on end (in rural Texas you don't have much to do). I would post allot: always trying to make the highest quality posts I could, while still being myself. That is pretty much my Forum life in a nutshell. c: .....GREEEENIIIEEEESSS!!!!! .....BUURRPLLEESS!!!!! Hmmm I don't really know how to continue with this speech... life story? NAH most people here already know me as the crazy Artist Shoutbox Loon, and I don't really need to reveal information regarding my personal life, since 1: It's not important, and 2: I'd rather not be self absorbed and post a whole biography (Forum biographies don't count man). I don't want to point out specific "friendos" since I don't want someone to feel left out. You are ALL my friends. The TWEM, the numbskulls, the loonies, hehe... the greenies, the burples, the mob, the sheep herders, the used car salesmen, the TWINS, them who shall not be named... , the laugh-riot spambots, and ALL of you people. C: Thank you CMods, Mod, Staff, and Twam for keeping this place running, and putting up with our shenanigans!! We need to go derper. Oh yea, here's a message for Derpin9... So... without further ado.... I bring this MoM speech... to a close... *hears booing from the croud* HEHEHEHE EDIT: I remember Bnus saying something about a MoM wish. I've never seen one mentioned before, and I don't know if it's mandatory.... but I guess I'll have a crack at it. My MoM wish is... I don't know what kind of wish Bnus was referring to, but here goes nothing: A little Gallery Window on the Forum main page to preview the actual File Share Gallery. That way people actually look at the images instead of just skipping out on the Gallery altogether. The old gallery can still reside where it is. The little window can be closed like all the other Tabs. I don't care if it's up top, or at the bottom. This is for people who want to share their art in the Gallery, but can't get enough recognition because of how neglected the Gallery is. And I'm not referring to myself. I can give a reference picture of how another Forum has the Preview Window of it's Gallery if requested. That's it. You people have already given me enough. c: So that's the end. I'll see you starside!- 15 replies

I must confess something... There's no food here. Tricked! Treated! Trolled! Heehaw haw! don't click this Anyway let's continue, shall we? My time as MoM is almost over. The torch will be passed and all that jazz, and MoM Destruct dies forever... but Self Destruct rises from them charred pinkish ashes. Thanks for putting up with me this month, and thanks to whoever chose me as MoM (I forget how it's determined actually), be it the Mods or Staff: I am eternally grateful. Thank you to the regular members as well: you guys are great! Finally, thanks to the Staff/Mods/Twam for keeping this place running for all us! It was fun while it lasted, but I know the mantle of MoM does not persevere forever. I wish the September MoM (and all future MoMs) good luck, and that he/she will be the greatest MoM yet! Lastly the MoM wish... it hasn't been granted (at least I don't think it has) but that's alright. Just getting the title of MoM was enough for me. c: And with that the Outtro comes to a close. Thanks for reading! Thanks, thanks, thanks, 2000x thanks. - - - - - I'll just leave this here... ( ͡o ͜ʖ ͡o)

[the MoM banner is causing derpness within the thread, sorry] Yep. My time as MoM is nearly over. In a few days I'll have to relinquish my Pink Pride... At least I went out with a BANG (well almost)! I'm grateful that the Mods/Staff/Everyone Else decided to bequeath me with the Pinkyness. I can never fully show my gratitude for that, so I hope this Event will be nearly sufficient as payment! (At least for everyone except for Azaxx... he wants Blood Payment :spiteful: ) Keep being the all-around trippin-strait-rippin bada$$ forumers you are! - - - - - Thanks to everyone who joined!

Today (August 2nd) Amazon.es (Spanish-Español... I don't know if they did the same thing on the regular Amazon) it seems they accidentally listed Halo: The Master Chief Collection as being for PC as well as Xbox One. They were quick to take off the PC label, but everyone knows... you post it, people instantly grab it: SegmentNext being one of those groups. According to SegmentNext, this did not get a page for a PC listing: which means it was probably a glitch or error in the system. Now, I know what your thinking, "Hey Pinky this is TOTALLY PHOTOSHOP!!!" and I can understand that. It would be easy to put a pixelized PC beside the Xbox One name... but... here's the thing. Yes, it could be a Glitch, and YES it could be edited, but what if this is real? SegmentNext stated that GTA V got the same glitch, and it turned out to be true for PC (though I don't keep up with GTA). Have some of that! What seems even more strange is... Microsoft on July 31st revealed a Master Chief Mouse for official sale in October, as Gamespot covered. Quoting Gamespot: "Strangely, considering the target demographic for this is presumably people who play games and are fans of Halo, this is not a gaming mouse. The 3500 is a fairly run-of-the-mill wireless mouse that carries an MSRP of $30, but is sold for as little as $16 on Amazon if you're willing to make do with one whose color is officially described as "Loch Ness Gray." "By most accounts it's a fine mouse, but it lacks the sort of gamer-centric features you'd expect from one that carries the Halo branding. Even something as simple as extra side buttons (the 3500 has only the two in addition to its mouse wheel) that I can't imagine living without are nowhere to be found." "Microsoft claims the mouse lasts up to eight months with a single AA battery, offers a slot for transporting its USB receiver, and uses the company's BlueTrack Technology. This is said to provide "remarkable tracking on virtually any surface" including carpet, though it won't work on mirrors or clear glass." Now I know there is probably a crapton of Halo merchandise for PCs at this point, but I found this correlation to be somewhat... non coincidental. As of now I have not seen official Halo related PC accessories except Desktop Wallpaper. The MC Mouse is somewhat generic, and seemingly not fit for hardcore gaming (though I can manage pretty well with a regular mouse, but I'm not a hardcore PC gamer), but WHY announce a Halo Mouse at this point when there is allot of PC clamoring for the MCC? Which you stated like 1000 times is not making it's debut? I don't see the logic here. Sadly this could be just Microsoft doing what Microsoft does: Selling stuff. There is possibly no regard to the Master Chief Collection with this Mouse. Sad but true... but we can hope. So. What do you think? Trolling? Glitches? PHOTOSHOP!? Crack those skulls open, and give me them thoughts!
