Good to see that we all survived the roll over... one can't help but feel sorry for those survivalists out in the middle of Montana. They must feel so let down.

Other than yesterday's cookie problem (huge amounts of kudos to Zin for supplying the fix), everything seems to be working around here, so it's back to business as usual. Make those resolutions, and perhaps take a second to consider what happened last night.

Marathon's Story has pointed out some interesting speakers on the list for the Game Developers Conference 2000, including Total Audio's Marty O'Donnell and Oni's ex-project lead Brent Pease. Slated to begin March 8th, 2000, this conference should help us pass the time between MWSF and E3.

Hmm... I guess I'm the only person who thinks the world is going to end tomorrow night... ;)

SonicStorm sends word of a new feature at Battleground: Halo:

Back from the holidays, Marathon's Story has more detailed information (including maps) from Freewill regarding the Bungie gathering at Macworld San Francisco on January 5th. Definitely worth investigating if you're the type who gets lost easily.

After a few days of dedicated poll smashing, Marathon pfhans (sorry) have assumed the lead in GAMEZNet's Greatest Game of All Time poll, holding almost 20% of the vote at last count. That's somewhere in the 2000 vote range, which just goes to show that code spent on preventing multiple votes is code well spent. ;)

Mojo is up to something... a teaser, a new website in the works, or just something to confuse those who still visit Halam day to day? Hmm... something to keep an eye on, if nothing else.

I meant to post yesterday, I really did... Merry Belated Christmas all. That said, it's back to business as usual around here. Which, as regulars are well aware, means nonsensical posts to fill gaps in news.

So, without further ado, a haiku:
