How come I spent more time than Hebbs?! and I am within top 25K ranked on XONE? Looks like I went a bit crazy after TTK is released... This "hot and steamy" relationship with the high maintenance GF - Destiny is transitioning into "marriage" soon hopefully, with weekly "Date (Raid) Night" and not much else, Once Halo 5 and BLOPS3 are out...

9,504 hours of our lives wasted away, 396 days. Think of all the other things we could have accomplished in that year and change.
"Think of all the fun we've had with those guys though!"

Can't decide if I feel good or bad about "only" 520 hours... Feel bad. If you don't get online more then I'll never stop confusing you for one of the Hebbs. I think I can tell the two Hebbs apart from each other now though so maybe that helps. Still, it would be better if you adopted a higher pitched voice or maybe just a cockney accent or something.

I might need coaching from wings on how to sound British. From time to time, I got asked whether I am British. I don't think that these people are seriously thinking that I might be (because my accent is nowhere near British), just a polite way to let me know that "I can't understand what the hell you are saying"...

Chilling conversation in our party last night: Dumien: I am gonna play Devil's Lair. Me: Devil's Lair? What are you getting from it? Dumien: nothing, I am just gonna play it for fun Pegasus Actual: playing something just for fun and no loot?! What is wrong with you?! ... All: <awkward silence> ... Dumien: <nervous laughs> ...

FTFY <me and Dumien acquire No Time To Explain> <the three of us get through the Dust Palace Nightfall, which doesn't play to the weapon's strength (ammo refund for shooting things in the face)> Dumien: I want to shoot Sepiks Prime with this thing. I'm gonna play Devil's Lair. wittyscorpion: Devil's Lair? Why?!? What are you getting from it? Pegasus Actual <interrupting wittyscorpion before he finishes the second statement above>: FOR FUN WITTY HE IS DOING IT FOR FUUUUUUN!!! Dumien: Yes, I am just playing it for fun Witty.

The Truth, The Whole Truth, and Nothing But The Truth: Dumien / Pegasus Actual / wittyscorpion: <completed Dust Palace Nightfall> wittyscorpion: <on a "bodily function" break> In the mean time, Dumien and Pegasus Actual: <having a conversation about the "get precision shots back into mag" perk of "No Time to Explain"> Dumien: I want to shoot Sepiks Prime with this thing... wittyscorpion: <came back from the break> Dumien: I'm gonna play Devil's Lair wittyscorpion: Devil's Lair? What are you getting from it? Pegasus Actual: <mumbled something that later proved to be> "FOR FUN WITTY HE IS DOING IT FOR FUUUUUUN!!!" Dumien: I am just playing it for fun Pegasus Actual: Playing something just for fun and no loot?! What is wrong with you?! wittyscorpion: ... <awkward silence> Dumien: <regular laughs> BTW: Dumien's conclusion from his Seprik Prime test is that "No Time to Explain" need max stability to best take advantage of the perk.

No joke but I have a friend about to go on that show. Michelle, she's Asian.

Yeah that's nothing new. I think Call of duty 4 was the first to hire psychologists to help design the multiplayer experience. The quick and repeatable rewards fire off endorphins like crazy and leads to a more addictive player experience. Destiny sees the same type of rewards system. These guys know what they're doing.

So Cra'adug is the Taken Knight that spawns with Mengoor. So why is Cra'adug's name resembles Cabal nomenclature? Also, is Krughor basically named after a place in South Africa?

Today it occurred to me: we killed Crota, Son of Oryx, Ir sisters, Daughters of Oryx, and Oryx himself.
Err... feels like... we missed... somebody important? Detective: Where is Oryx's family photo?

Xivu Arath, Savathun, Nokris, and Oryx's mum if there is one. Destiny could actually start to incorporate more of the lore into the campaign if may be they showed the Hive's struggles of the past and perhaps paint them as not 100% evil. The Book of Sorrows is a good read for those into the lore. Also, I get the impression that Crota has some 'innocence' from reading the lore and how Bungie drew him in a cut scene. I don't think it's far fetched considering we end up warring against the Cabal when we really didn't had to. It's not like we tried any diplomacy with them or anything.

Crota, the unlucky Son of bitch Oryx, simply can't catch a break.
Just when you think it is embarrassing enough for a god-like raid boss to be solo'ed by a puny Guardian, another player came along and beat him with nothing but wooden spoons and Rock Band drums:
