Marathon 4 is coming

And it will rock. Hello Bungie Dudes. [to our human audience, our logs show at least 3 Bungie employees visit this page regularly].
Mail me your thoughts on the subject, I know you want to.


Bungierumors low on insults & stuff.

Our readers have been most helpful and we thank them for the dirt that they have been continually passing on to us over the years, but as you can clearly see we are now scraping the barrel. What else can we say about Tuncer without getting our asses sued?

Feed Me!

Anonymity is cool. Why do I always refer to myself as "we"?


Myth community growing tired?

You tell me. That's the feeling I get. If Bungie fail to release 1.3 before the end of the month, I smell serious trouble. Holding my breath and counting down...

Daimyo and Bungie Alliance?

Several readers have been asking about the motivation behind the update on www.bungie.net on Saturday. This email catches the general sentiment well :

				
Why is Bungie posting messages on Bungie.net asking for help on the
Daimyo project? Bungie doesn't usually seem to be that helpful...

Anyway, don't mention me, just an anonymous person wondering what's
up...

				
Voracious Rabbits also had a news item on Saturday discussing possible reasons, including the Daimyo Project being a commercial venture in conjunction with Bungie.

Yes, Daimyo looks professional, but I do not believe at this stage it could be in a league that could be profitable for Bungie, not just monetarily. I had the chance to pin down the cancerman himself in the recent IMG Chat Forum. :
				
BungieRumors: QUESTION: do you think the limits placed on the creation
of third party maps reduced myth's longevity as a game?

[{-tUnCeR-}]: bungierumors, in the long term, and in complete honesty, yes

				
[BR sidenote - In retrospect it becomes clear that this does give the opportunity of history repeating, - after the release of Myth II, Myth Infinity, and... Myth Trilogy. So i find Tuncer's reply a little contrived.]

More likely this update and helping hand from the Max/Dirtae team can be attributed to them being relatively new to the Bungie Juggernaut. The ritual castration, tagging and mind control, initiated by Tuncer just weeks after he first joined the innocent Bungie Software, may not have been completed on this fresh blood. It is my belief that Tuncer will 'tighten his grip', and remove this threat before the truth becomes any more clear.

Fuel the Fire.

More on 'Best Bungie Game Poll'

I'm sorry to inform my readers my Tuesday report on the preliminary results of the 'Best Bungie Game Poll' has had unforeseen side effects. Firstly, I have received several death threats and have had to tighten security after the organisers decided my fight for truth had jeopardised their efforts to hold a legitimate poll. However they do not appear to realise the poll is flawed to begin with. It fails to take into account which platform the voter uses. For example, If 80% of the people voting in the poll use PCs, do they expect the poll to return useful results?

Secondly, after my initial results showed marathon to be leading by a significant margin my sources now tell me Myth currently holds 75% of the votes. It would appear this is part of the continuing conspiracy between the dominant Myth news sites.

Bungie.net Admins Strike

Bungie.net admins apparantly went on strike as of midnight last night. Among their list of demands, a 15% pay rise and better working conditions. Today, Apple CEO Steve Jobs wrote Tuncer Deniz and The Bnet Admin Union and offered the assistance of a mediator to help the parties reach a negotiated settlement. The Union advised Mr. Jobs that they would accept, understanding of course that they would maintain their right to strike. Will Mediation be successful? Mediation can succeed only if the Corporation has been given a new mandate and clear instructions to negotiate in good faith. We'll know very soon, one way or the other, The parties meet with the mediator, Apple Fellow Sinbad, tonight at 8:30 p.m. Can any negotiation with Bungie be believed with Tuncer at the helm? Meanwhile, the outcast scum of the Myth community roams free on Bungie.net cheating, pillaging, rap...

Best Bungie Game Poll : Prelimary Results

Thanks to BungieRumors sources we have been able to aquire early results in the 'Best Bungie Game' Poll, held by Mythology and Marathon Central.

[Source 1] Here are the results so far :

    Marathon: 64%    Myth: 35%   Other: 1%

[Source 1] From our logs, we were able to determine Bungie have voted 2:1 for Myth, but the people have spoken. Shows what Bungie knows.

[Source 2] I was expecting the Bungie people to vote for 'Other'. Clearly this means that MythII and Oni suck.

[Source 2] goes on to say :
Bungie is actually populated soley by trained button-pecking chickens and key-tapping monkeys. That whole thousand monkeys with a thousand typewriters things rings true, the chickens and monkeys have spat forth a few software gems. Terabytes upon terabytes of completely uncomprehensable strings of characters flow from Bungie HQ every day, it's the chickens jobs to peck "keep" for the lines that look like they might actually do something. Of course, the chickens don't know C++, so alot slips by. The monkeys refuse to code in lisp, because the perenthesis look like bananas, and that just makes them hungry and irratable.
A connection with the new abient characters in Myth II maybe? mail us.

A vicious rumor slinking its way through the Bungie Community underground would have it that BungieRumors will soon again be updating their web pages with the latest filth on Bungie themselves. BungieRumors declined to comment. If you have any information on this story, mail us.
