HBO Halofest Pistol (as in, thanks to you all!)
Posted By: Arithmomaniac <arithmomaniac@hotmail.com>Date: 8/30/11 12:49 a.m.


I knew Halofest was going to be a lot of fun just celebrating, playing, and seeing the future of Halo. But, as I expected, the real fun and awesomeness was getting to meet all of you. Sure, I don't even own an XBox to truly have met all of you online, but you patiently endured my meet-and-greet nervousness (sorry in particular to the Twitterverse) and made me feel not only right at home, but truly part of something epic.

Thanks from Sunday (one day - too short!):

- Bungie, for giving us the first 10 years.
- 343i, for throwing such an awesome event in my own backyard - and showing they really care, too.
- Frankie, for giving such deliciously calibrated answers to everything (the obtuseness around UNSC weapons in Halo 4 was something else.)
- Tojima, for enlisting another member of the Marty Army with not only his score, but his passion.
- Louis Wu, for (besides, you know, everything) putting up with text tag.
- The Grimbrothers, for finding me and introducing me to everyone.
- Mig, for reminding me that the Greasemonkey scripts are actually useful.
- Leviathan, for more thanks than a GDoc could ever possibly deserve.
- Mega Blocks, for the adorable free Lego Elites.
- Kermit, for insisting I take a seat at dinner. I'm glad I did.
- Paradig08, for pointing out how to make the arms flail with the Grunt plushies.

And finally, all of HBO for being so awesome, passionate, and welcoming. I could mention you all by name, but I figured it might be sufficient to show all the signatures on the HBO pistol.

It's been an awesome eight years for me here, and I'm looking forward to double the fun with DBO, too. I'm definitely going to plan my summer with next year's Halofest in mind, and if I fail... well, see you starside™.

Thanks for the twelve fleeting hours of amazing memories.
