Some general observations about the ebb and flow of Halo 3 activity. Also, some suggestions to get
you back in the game. <Note: This is regurgitated content for our newer members>

So,

I am as guilty of this as anyone, but I've noticed it's much harder to find a D Wrath member on with
whom to play lately. Sure there are the staples, Utica, Froman, Archer, and myself, but I feel that folks
are losing touch with this magical game.

I know there are other really addictive, great games out right now, but c'mon, it's Halo!

Some suggestions to find more time for Halo:
1) Stop playing Beautiful Katamari, it's just an evil mind-control tool used to get us to buy more
Pokemon.
2) Meditate and remember the glory of a brilliant grenade stick, vehicle splatter, head-snipe, or triple kill
you've had in the past. These memories can get you through a day of work, and will undoubtedly bring
you back for more.
3) Stop watching your favorite sports franchise. They created sportscenter to support Halo fans who
want to catch up on their sports in small, manageable time-bites.
4) Cut all social interaction in half. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and Halo helps you reflect
on the beautiful things in life, like people whose gamertag is "About 43 Ninjas".
5) Replace personal hygiene with Halo 3. This also tends to make suggestion #4 easier to
accomplish.
6) Live a truly spartan lifestyle. Eat only when you must, and kill all the time. This is also known as the
ninja lifestyle, or being Chuck Norris.
7) Catch quick cat-naps between matchmaking games. Take advantage of the occasional server lag to
butt-stroke some ZZZ's.
8) Adjust your look speed to keep the game interesting, from a drugged-marmoset 1, all the way up to
a tweaked out crack-fiend 99 (must have a modded xbox, and be a real-life crack-fiend).
9) Play Clive Barker's Jericho so that you have a good benchmark for what an awful, crummy game can
look like. Your views of Halo 3 will become more positive the moment you turn on that heaping pile of
filth.
10) Make a $100 bet with a Halo playing friend that you can reach 10000 logged matchmaking games
before they do.
11) Invite friends over to watch you play, and see how long they sit in a room with you, being completely
ignored and hearing your incessant, childish screaming. This should also help with #4.
12)Try to make prettier screen caps and game pics than r3v. This should take you a few months of
solid play time, that guy is basically the
Eddie Adams of Halo 3.

Hope this dirty dozen will help you find more time in your day to appreciate all the potential slaughter
that is out there waiting for you. I'll see you on Live.
