Holy shit, there is money to be made in those seemingly useless swag bags/on floor swag giveaways.

The League of Legends code that was bundled with every swag bag, is selling for over $20.00
Halo stuff given away at the door - $80.00
Grunts that cost $16.00 - selling for $100.00
Skyrim Helments - $70.00
Misc T-Shirts - $20.00

It's no wonder people stood in line for hours for all of these things. :\

Kind of a shame that so much of it is just ending up on Ebay

If I was at the Fest I'd be kind of mad that instead of keeping stuff people sell it, hell I didn't go and I kind of am. At least you're gifting yours to fellow fans. <3.

Thanks to an awesome friend I have the awesome HaloFest poster and the boxed soundtrack set coming my way. Of course I paid for them, but was lucky to have someone there that would buy me some stuff.

Forgot to add a few maps to my map list.

Ascension
Beaver Creek
Blood Gulch
Citadel
Damnation
District
Longest
Timberland
The Pit
Sanctuary (the good one)
Lockout (MUST BE Tempest version)
Ivory Tower/Reflection
Wizzard/Warlock
Foundation
Headlong
Prisoner
Hang Em High

So if the Classic playlist supports forgeworld/tempest maps, we could actually have a lot of maps in that playlist lol

Oh, hai guys.

Like I said a few days ago, I bought an extra grunt to give away (which seem to be worth a lot of money, should have bought a couple more, heh). I'm not going to do a lame-o PM random draw giveaway, I want it to be fun. I can't really come up with any good ideas though, lol. Best I can think of is perhaps some 1v1s of the person's choosing, and whoever wins by the widest margin, or comes closest to winning gets it, this way everyone who wants a shot can try to do their best. Gametypes can be as whacky as you want them to be, I don't care.

How much does it cost to ship to Europe? I'd like to let everyone try, but if it's an absurd price, I might have to limit it to NA people...

I do have a RVB "Camping is a legitimate strategy" shirt that I wouldn't mind doing a random draw for if anyone is interested, I think it's an XL.

Tashi, I also have some sweet stickers for you. ;)

I'll have the Star Wars Kinect pic up in a minute as well...

Apparently you needed to preorder Halo CEA, but I managed to grab one regardless. It's # 0343. :D

Also, Devin, I saw you got #1 for the "sign your gamertag in this spreadsheet and maybe something will happen!" Nice.

Drop a single spawn point. If there's no spawn points then it will randomly use one of the backup spawns.

lol, I really do have a bioshock infinite sticker and a NES pad sticker, if they're not destroyed from travel I guess I could drop them in an envelope if you want them.
