Haven't posted in a while

Been quite busy with school and such. How's everyone goin?
Plans for Halloween?
My weekend got shat on. Had plans and people dipped out.
Mo' fuggas.

Nail Biting.

It's a bad habit.

And I do it frequently. It's kind of a sub-conscious thing though. I need to stop however.
There is a specific tooth I usually use to bite my nails, the one that is two over to the right of my lower front teeth. Today that tooth and part of my gum right below it was sore. I looked in the mirror at my tooth and realized that I bite my nails so much that I bent my tooth slightly forward and my gum was somewhat swollen.

Haven't bit my nails yet since I noticed that. I don't think this will last for long though. Does anybody know of any good ways to help you stop biting your nails?

Also getting close to 100 followers. Thanks guys!

Halo Reach: Noble Map Pack

Bungie announced a map pack for Halo Reach. News of DLC was already leaked, but information about it was unknown until now.

Here are some screenshots of the maps.

The BS of Halo Reach

So there is some new glitch you can do if you are host in a game that lets you kill people instantly. It involves somehow meleeing and shooting at the same time so you take out their shields and shoot them in the head for the kill. I also stopped playing swat because a lot of people use aim bots. Wtf is this shit. I never remember any modding problems in Halo 3. I friggen loved swat. A-holes ruined it.

Here's a video by Bryan Simon explaining the instant kill glitch I first talked about.

This is great.

If you play Halo you might enjoy this.

Minecraft mods

I was just looking at some texture mods for minecraft. This one looks pretty good.

Anybody know of any other good mods for minecraft?

Sorry I keep disappearing guys

First, Reach kept me away.

And now,

]\

Anyone else addicted?

And if you don't know what Minecraft is, GO PLAY IT.

I wouldn't recommend watching anything about it though. I did that before I started playing it and I thought it looked pretty dumb. My friend made me play it though and now I love it.

Halo Reach is doing very good

Within the the first few hours of Reach's release, it had more players than Halo 3 did in it's first week. That's pretty damn good.

Some other stats from b.net

• 70 Million+ Games have been played
• 235 Million+ Player-games have been made
• 2 Million+ Files have been uploaded to File Shares
• 5,901 man-years have been spent in online Reach games
• 20 Million Daily challenges have been completed
• 709,840 Weekly challenges have been completed
• 165 Billion Credits have been earned.

I think that's pretty cool.
