Aww, four days before my projected 9/14 leak date. Ah well.

Time to turn off the internet, brb.

Edit: I have been asked not to turn off the internet. So be careful out there.
So... you're worried somebody would spoil the ending for you!?

[/spoiler]I'm going to have a lot more fun writing in spoilers from now on. People are going to be torn, thinking, "SHOULD I REEDZ IYT?!" They then highlight it, in the physical manifestation of weakness, and discover they have been tricked. After several times being tricked, they will soon develop a sense of confidence, and when an actual spoiler is written, they will be classically conditioned to highlight it, subsequently having their proverbial story-virgin entrails spilled onto the steaming hot plate smugly called the internet.[/spoiler]

OMG

*Sigh

I think we will be safe on GAF.

One place you should definitely steer clear of is Digg.
You know those 2500 people added a short time ago? I heard from myself that 80% of them are joke accounts for when Halo 3 leaks.

I'm afraid to even look at alex's post.

Looks like its time to go play DOTA till it hits. Bye bye cruel world. :(

Edit: Yeah, he's screwed. :lol

I want to confirm something. Quite a few EB Games and GameStop stores here in Miami plan on holding Halo 3 tournaments on September 23rd. They plan to hold preliminaries at several stores and then hold a final round at an unspecified store.

Has anyone heard of any such thing going on with their local EB and GameStop stores? I thought this is rather odd and it certainly sounds like they shouldn't be doing this. Before Halo 2 came out, one of the same stores holding one of these Halo 3 tournaments did the same thing but with Halo 1 and about a month before launch, not a week.

I have not heard of anything like that, and I talk to my local GameStop manger fairly often. However, the GameStops rarely do anything cool in my area.

I'm going to an event that has a Halo 2 tournament. There may be some confusion. I think the idea is to play until midnight, and pick up Halo 3, and then book it home to finish the fight.

my eb had halo 2 in the xbox nearly all day until the manager came back in for the midnight release and made them take it out

pretty sure there are rules against this

:lol a leak threat level should totally be added to this thread.

Well as long as the French don't screw us over, I don't think there should be a leak, with the embargos on the media.
 
I think this thread is the only safe place from spoilers.

If any of you guys hear of websites being bombarded with Halo 3 spoiler spam, let us know in this thread.

It can be our official spoiler defense base.
 
I'm at DEFCON 3 - Be Really Careful. This means I'm down to GAF, HBO front page, Bungie.net front page and a private forum. Sites like 1up are officially down except for direct links to podcasts. When details start leaking, I'm going to....

DEFCON 5 - Be Really Fucking Careful. That's real lockdown mode: HBO front page and Bungie.net front page. I'll update the OP with materials from those sources, but no longer read the thread (but I'll do fire-and-forget updates). I'll also read threads like NPD, but otherwise go dark.
 
Has anyone succesfully used that 10% Gamestop coupon? I tried using it but they said it wasn't valid for preorders and it expires before the game comes out. :-/

I do not trust even this thread. The only place to get Halo 3 goodness for the next two weeks that will be spoiler free is ...



bungie.net

but obviously not their forums!
 
Oh shit.

I hope they trace down that fucker and fire his ass.
It even has the yellow "STOP! NOT TO BE PLACED ON SHELVES UNTIL SEPTEMBER 25TH"
sticker.

The next person to use spoiler tags gets a kick in the nuts from me.

fixed! sorry, didn't even think about the fragile state we are now in.



Is XBL still down? Hope they get all these probs ironed out soon, I'm bored.

Yeah, pretty much there and the Official Halo MLG forums are where I'll be spending my days up until the 25th. I'm sorry GAF, but I have to move on to a more mature place, where the likelihood of my being spoiled is near zero. Bye!
