Trong Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 We probably made it. All the kids east coast are just getting home from school. The only people who can sign up were in work. I don't think 13333 people can sign up during their work time in the past hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spenser.d Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Hooooo Raaah! Not to rain on your parade, but I got that message too, and I didn't play for 3 hours (I played, on pure coincidence since I rarely play H2 online - I LAN with my buddies in the dorm, for maybe an hour and a half max). -Spenser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RGSPro Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 hope they cant tell i didnt actually play. I was at home from school for the weekend and didnt have my 360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halcyoncmdr Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 If they couldn't tell if you played why would they give definite times and dates? :rolleyes: They probably can get that info from the live servers and the 360 hardware reports that they collect to see if it is modded/etc., why else would you HAVE to play on a 360? Many people have 360s and play Halo on their original xboxs, I know lots who do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DELTETHISACCOUNT Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Well I registered. (6:45PM Central) I really hope I get in. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tech Star Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 This is mean. At 7:00 AM in California I checked and it wasn't open. So I go to school then. When I get back its was CLOSED!!! :( I played 6+ hours to. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halcyoncmdr Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Well, I managed to dign up, but I am not 100% certain that I got all 3 hours in. This weekend was a bad time for gaming for me :( My guess is they got a lot more than 13,333 submissions anyway though. haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am Reid Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I new this was going to happen. I only had one class today, and I just new it was going to be in the middle of that damn class. I have a feeling the reason they did it in the middle of the day is to try to keep out as much of the little 13 and 14 year old kids who are just going to play it a few times, and go onto another game. They wouldnt be very serious about testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halcyoncmdr Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Well, I think that is a little harsh. I'm only 17 and I don't do that, although I admit there are WAYYYYYYY too many people who do!!! I'd say about 16-17 is where people really start to be either idiots/nubs or actually understand that it is only a game. I haven't muted that many people simply because after a couple of minutes they tend to be quiet when they realize that we really are better than them... haha But back on topic: I personally thought the link was going to be on the main page so it was probably up for a while when I finally saw it on the back page haha. I don't really remember when I signed up. Does anyone know how long it was open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bts0uth Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 it opened yesterday at about 2:20 est and i got in about 2:40 (servers were hammered) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
