And to help you know Marty better, there are questions asked by group members and answered by the Elder One himself. He’s a funny man. With a lot of answers.(Louis Wu 19:47:39 UTC)

Two-wheel Warthog Driving in Halo: Reach
You cannot watch this video.
Please Enter your Date of Birth
From Eagle0nFire:Have you ever found yourself barrel rolling out of control? Ever wish you could stay on two wheels? Well, I am still learning how to do this technique properly but this is probably one of the most challenging things I have ever done in Halo. With a little bit of practice, you can try it, too! I warn you, though, this trick is very hard, very tedious, and may drive you completely nuts. Enjoy!

For the Kids!
From Rooster Teeth:We recently attended the 2011 Child’s Play dinner in Seattle, which includes a charity auction to benefit sick kids receiving treatment in hospitals all over the world. This week, the item we won arrived and we immediately hung it in a prominent place in the office. Without further ado, I present to you our one-of-a-kind masterpiece Van Doh by Frank O’Connor (oil on canvas 2011). Somehow Mister Chief added to the Rooster Teeth office has raised the stature of both entities. Two wrongs making a right as it were. Through art, progress.

A One-of-a-kind Halo Present
From Josh:I wanted to share some Halo coasters I made for a friend who enjoys Halo. While I was at work, I made two (4” x ½”) wooden disks. After they were finished, I scanned the internet for logos and symbols to put on the coasters. The first one I made is just the plain Halo logo with “Solo and Co-op” on it for when we completed Halo: Anniversary over Xbox live. The second is the Legendary logo with “Legendary” inscribed at the bottom for us completing it on that difficulty together. Each coaster is laser engraved and most definitely a one-of-a-kind Christmas present!
