: Speedrun is in the semi-finals in Halo Custom's minigame contest. It is
: currently up against The Halo Ring.

: While I've made some noise about this contest before, encouraging people to
: vote for their favorite map , yesterday I found out that the author of The
: Halo Ring is buying votes for his map with a Microsoft points giveaway .

: Speedrun's vote lead is quickly shrinking, and looking through the comments
: in that thread (a requirement of The Halo Ring author's giveaway) tells
: you why.

: Here's what I ask of you, oh honorable HBO: #1. Watch the videos for both of
: these maps. You'll have to wait through an advertisement for The Halo
: Ring's map, unfortunately:

:

: #2. Decide which map you'd like to vote for in Halo Custom's Minigame
: Contest.

: #3. Go create an account at Halo Customs and vote for either Speedrun or
: The Halo Ring . While you're there, consider also voting in the other
: semi-final showdown .

: Let's make sure the winners in this round win on merit!

Your map is far and away more interesting and fun to play anyhow. I've done my part.
