Subject: A Halo 3 Wedding Proposal

It is easier to destroy than to create.

More fun, too.

My girlfriend and I are both gamers and we play a lot of Halo 3 together, so when it came time to pop the question, I thought up a different way of going about it.

I started working on a High Ground custom map in Forge and made sure she saw me working on it. I asked her to run the map with me and test it out for balance, weapon selection, etc. I even put an energy sword on the bridge to make sure she would run there first thing. Once she said the map was fine, I scheduled a match with some friends of mine for a two-on-two game. What she didn't know was that I had also been working on another map, one I loaded on the sly for the match. Once the game started--she and I were playing split-screen on the same 360, by the way--we headed for the bridge (my friends knew what was going on and held still to not show up on radar) only to find the sword missing. So she moved forward, looked down, and there on the ground, spelled out in various weapons, were the words "marry me?" While she was processing this, I slipped out the ring I had bought and held it up just as she was turning to ask me what I was playing at. I presented her the ring and asked if she would be my teammate for the rest of my life.

She said yes.

A little later, she killed me with a shotgun.

Who says romance is dead?

I'm just your average perpetually-broke college student...

Please DO NOT send me group invites. I don't care how super-awesome your group is, I'm not interested. Not that you'll read this, and even if you did, you'd probably still send me them. But still....

Just remember:

I really don't think that there are games better than Halo... But some other people use to tell me "Think Different! () "... I thought differently for a long long time ... and i finally figured out that there isn't anything better than Halo! But there will be... Halo 3!

Holy hell :'( it almoste made me cry
Congrats!

I wish you and your new wife, many years of kicking butt.
