Randy Boquet, {SS}Kasias, Overlord of the Sa’ ik Sect, writes to tell us that the first-ever Covenant Clan is now online. Alien warriors are invited to stop by.

The recovery rate accelerates… almost 400 previously-lost units back in Halo SETI Marine fold! Check out the 48-hour stats.

Noctavis writes to tell us that the Pax Nimbus website is now online. There was a big long press release, but our dog ate it. You can read most of it on their site, though. Thanks, Noctavis!

Apologies for our forum problems… seems the server that houses them came under attack this evening. Things should be back to normal soon. (Hopefully, most will never have noticed the outage.)

Bryan Giordano writes in with some fascinating research. The US Patent and Trademark Office has a database of trademark text and images. A search on the word Bungie turns up 24 patents. Five of these belong to Bungie Software; one each for the name Bungie, Myth TFL, Halo, Oni, and Armor. Armor? This last patent…

Thanks to Loren Petrich, who pointed out on our forum that Gamecenter.com includes Halo in an article entitled “Top 10 Game Predictions for 2000.” One tidbit from that piece will be of interest to the many people who want to know about system requirements for Halo… Bungie came to our offices and showed Halo in…

The recovery of units continues apace. Halo SETI team 24 hour stats posted… 100 units, back where they belong. Welcome, too, to Maraphile, and his 86 units. 😉

Flashback writes to tell us that HALO-NET now has a flash intro added, explaining the story of HALO-NET. Go check it out…

Hey! For the first time in a long time, we’re gaining lost units! Check out the current 24 hour SETI stats!

Thanks to Dan Lacy, who sent in another desktop pic for our Wallpaper page. They’re coming in fast and furious these days! Thanks, Dan.

Sunny side up… SETI stats are ready. 24 Hour flavor, or the 7-day variety. Come ‘n get ’em!

An editorial in the January 2000 edition of Incite PC Gaming (yeah, that issue) shows that the Bungie fanbase isn’t alone in longing for a real storyline. Go and see what Wil O’Neal had to say!

Kudos to DeathGuru, who sent us a new desktop for our Wallpaper page. Wow, that’s four, in three days! Thanks, DG.

Thanks to cosmufet, who uploaded a new desktop for our Wallpaper page. Enjoy! Thanks, cosmufet.

Who are the Jjaro? (Formerly Jjaro Computer, Inc.) has added a single unit to climb to 777 units in the SETI Halo Team stats. This, and other interesting tidbits can be found on the 24 hour Stats page for the team. If you’re not a member, go join today!

We can’t show you the movie, but you can read the transcript of it… It’s easily worth the $3 or $4 it’ll cost to buy.

Oops, my bad. The Incite movie was uploaded to our uploads folder… but it’s not ours to distribute. 🙁 We’ve been asked to pull it, so pull it we will. Sorry… go out and grab the new issue of Incite, and see it for yourself!

Those SETI Marines keep losing earned units. Someone better figure out why that is! 24 hour stats posted.

Bummer… Nathan says no wedding scans… he doesn’t trust us. C’mon, Nathan!

Didn’t get to them yesterday, but last week’s 7 day SETI stats are now posted.
