Santa's Head is at it again, but this time he has tanks. Yes that is right Tanks. There are two previews of his new plugin up at Clanplaid's Townhall and at Myther.com.

National Macintosh Gaming Championship  - [ cyril | 10:39 CDT ]

It is almost time for the 1999 National Macintosh Gaming Championship, which will take place July 21-23 at the MacWorld Expo in New York City. During this championship there will be over two dozen tournaments, including 4 centered around our favorite game developer, Bungie. There is a Myth II, Myth II Team, Marathon, and Marathon Team tournaments. The games will be played on a couple of screaming fast 450 mhz G3 Towers with BSG Laboratories Intensor Sensory Chairs. Now prizes. You just can't have a Championship with out them, and this one is no different. The grand prize in this Championship is a new G3 Tower, a 17" monitor, one of those spiffy Intensor Sensory Chairs with a subwoofer, and an all-expenses paid trip to MacWorld San Francisco in 2000. Thats enough to make me want to visit New York this summer. Best of all entry is free provided that you are a registered attendee of MacWorld New York. For more information and to resistor visit http://www.dexposure.com/nmgc1999.html.

Departure

  Summer Vacation, Dude!  - [ Pie-rat | 21:05 CDT ]

Well.

I'm leaving on a six-week vacation to Europe and Africa, and I don't think I'll have net access...so I can't run this site for that time.

Anyway, I just want to say that I can't answer any e-mails you send to my address, myth@bungie.org, or mythnews@bungie.org. Sorry!

Don't worry, I'll be back. There should be a replacement coming...if you have any questions, please contact Steve (midwest). For more news, check out The Townhall, myther.com, and Mythology (when they finish their site redesign, or whatever they're doing behind that curtain).

See you all later!

Achtung

  bungie.net Password Scam  - [ Pie-rat | 14:17 CDT ]

Making its way around the Myth community is an e-mail asking for one's bungie.net Login and Password. The e-mail claims it is from Bungie and the password is needed due to an error.

This is NOT real.

If you get an e-mail from a hotmail.com account requesting your b.net password, DO NOT GIVE IT TO THE SENDER. If you have already given the sender your password by accident, go to the bungie.net Website and change your password immediately.

If your password has already been changed, report it to Bungie.

Thanks to The Townhall for spotting this.

  Marathon-Myth Connections?  - [ Pie-rat | 20:45 CDT ]

If you have been reading our Delusions section, you may have noticed a small page about possible Marathon-Myth connections. Recent threads on agm and agm2 have given arise to a new set of theories.

Do you have an idea about a Marathon-Myth connection? If so, please mail them to me...I am planning on co-authoring a page of possible connections with Forrest and Hamish.
