*scratches head*

Hypertrooper likes to point out that people have reposted stuff, but in a rude German tone.

 

[Blueblur1]

Well I'm hoping the emblems are actually for clans, and you can choose your own.

I didn't think of that. That would be pretty awesome.

 

[BlueScrote]

Who knows Java; More specifically who knows anything about the Calendar or GregorianCalendar classes? And yes this is Halo related.

What do you need to know about Calendar? Once you figure it out it's actually a decent API

		//right now cal is the curent time
		Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
		//cal is now one week from now
		cal.add(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR,1);
		
		//date object from what calendar currently represents
		Date dateObject = cal.getTime();

Thinking about hopping on for some reach of Halo 3 in a bit.

Is there any other kind of German tone?

 

[feel]

No avatar for the chums?

 

[Fuchsdh]

You aren't alone. I can never get into avatar fads.

Well, I've had the exact same Facebook profile pic since 2007. I need to change up *something* on occasion.

I've met some nice German ladies. Thrust me, they sounded sexy.

 

[Satchel]

Need to ask a genuinely dumb question to settle an argument.

SR = Spartan Rank right?

Trying to make my submission for the remix contest but it's not coming out so well any tips? Ark City Didacts - Space Jam (Awakening Mix) must live on!

That's the problem with foreign languages, they were all pretty rude, believe me.

Yes.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Spartan Ranks
Spartan Points
Spartan Ops
Spartan Hats!

 

[Barrow Roll]

Can someone wolfify my Didact?

Ahhhh now I get it. I was mistaken by what 'field' meant in the add(field, int) method. The way you put it made it painfully obvious that I was making it much more complicated than what it was. Thanks!

EDIT: Is there an easy way to set the Calendar object to be a specific date in the future, aside from getInstance(), add(MONTH, 2), add(YEAR, 1), add(DAY, 3)?

 

[Fuchsdh]

Wow... really? After two weeks of teasing for your book, you're gonna call someone else on a tease?

Wet blanket.

Not so much wet, as moldy

The glacier thing is really wonky, but luckily I don't have to pay attention to that stuff since whatever comes of it will get posted here or HBO.

 

[ElzarTheBam]

No thanks.

I am only doing it for you and Barlow. You'd miss that after a while.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Is there any other kind of German tone?

You should hear me speak German. My voice tone automatically changes to 'Bond Villain'.

 

[Sanjuro]

Awwww yeahhh

 

[Reagan's BR]

You're too kind.

00:00 - 00:20 Dirty south drum beat, slowly bring in hi-hats, begin slow and keep going fater and faster.
00:20 - 00:40 Switch it up, drop sick ass baseline, airhorn the ish up, add a smooth ass sax to the mix, shoutout to Marthy.
00:40 - 04:25 Rap about the Didact wanting to inslave cats, Master Chief shows up, Cats become flood, Sg. Johnson teleports out of nowhere and joins the fight, everybody from Reach just shows up in warthog and they fight along side the non flood cats.

 

[User 73706]

I admire your dedication to the cause, but...

[TheOddOne]

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

This. Somebody bucking send me now.

No thanks.

Shuttup, wife.

I admire your dedication to the cause, but...

Space Jam is really the best movie ever.

 

[CyReN]

Did 343 say the skins will be available eventually like Gears of War 3 did or am I going to have to be a horrible person and return copies..

There is. The set method is overloaded with a bunch of convenience methods.

You probably want something on

set(int year, int month, int date)
set(int year, int month, int date, int hourOfDay, int minute)
set(int year, int month, int date, int hourOfDay, int minute, int second)

 

[wwm0nkey]

Awwww yeahhh

How!?

 

[Sanjuro]

How!?

Luck.

 

[Ryaaan14]

Yo Sanjuro you got an extra EVA helmet code sittin around I'll take it off your hands for you thanks in advance

 

[bobs...onGaf]

Luck.

Luck from what? Doritos codes?

 

[Sanjuro]

Luck from what? Doritos codes?

Nah. I don't think the Doritos codes have anything like that.

The 7-11 game may, but I'm guessing avatar stuff.

 

[Poker Face]

Nah. I don't think the Doritos codes have anything like that.

The 7-11 game may, but I'm guessing avatar stuff.

what 7-11 game?

 

[bobs...onGaf]

Nah. I don't think the Doritos codes have anything like that.

The 7-11 game may, but I'm guessing avatar stuff.

But wait? Where did you get those particular codes from?

 

[Sanjuro]

what 7-11 game?

They are supposed to release a mobile app game called "King of the Hill".

I can only assume you have to wait awkwardly with the non-English speaking 7-11 employee until you capture the hill or he calls the cops.

 

[FUNKNOWN iXi]

Sanjuro, you should just explain everything you're talking about in detail.

 

[Hypertrooper]

Wait... There will be Halo 4-themed Slurpees? Oh that's, that's parody.

 

[KYZR]

I'm a bit late to the party, but at least my avatar is all Didactified, ^.^
here's the symbol I made If anyone still needs one.

 

[Sanjuro]

Wait... There will be Halo 4-themed Slurpees? Oh that's, that's parody.

Dunno. I hope so, need to replace all my faded Halo 3 cups.

 

[ArchedThunder]

Awwww yeahhh

Must... get... Locus Helmet... How did you get it?

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

Did 343 say the skins will be available eventually like Gears of War 3 did or am I going to have to be a horrible person and return copies..

BSangel did in the bulletin.
People going through all this shit are doing it unnecessarily. But it makes them happy, so meh.

 

[Orochinagis]

Yo Sanjuro you got an extra EVA helmet code sittin around I'll take it off your hands for you thanks in advance

woot? EVA Helmet code?

Awwww yeahhh

Oh man, you have another locust helmet code?

 

[Ryaaan14]

BSangel did in the bulletin.

I missed this. What was said?

woot? EVA Helmet code?

Back off bro it's mine. I got dibs already.

 

[Sanjuro]

woot? EVA Helmet code?



Oh man, you have another locust helmet code?

I've got nothing else at the moment.

 

[Brolic Gaoler]

I missed this. What was said?

They are going to open up all these skins and armor to everyone down the road after enough time has elapsed for the retailers.

Basically it's the gears 3 route.

 

[ArchedThunder]

I've got nothing else at the moment.

But HOW did you get the Locus helmet code?

 

[Ryaaan14]

They are going to open up all these skins and armor to everyone down the road after enough time has elapsed for the retailers.

 

[Nando13]

Ek, quote that thing.
