"I'm glad to have your skill set, but we're a team. That lone wolf stuff stays behind. Clear?" - Carter A259

Not every battle can be won by a single person. Sometimes, it's best to work with someone else. We've heard about two minds are greater than one, the dynamic duo, partners in crime, a song preformed by duets, well you get the idea. February may be about love and romance, but this screenshot contest is about two people kicking ass in epic (or hilarious) ways!

What are the limitations to this screenshot contest?

You can't go at it alone this time! Your screenshot must be taken with you and your BFF in it, or someone here on XF (or an in game character). Once you fill that requirement, it can be anything you want: scenic backdrop, you guys destroying in a warthog, etc. Let the imagination go wild!

Not a Reach affair anymore!

So maybe you don't like the backdrops of Reach. Well never fear, this will be the first screenshot contest in which Halo 3, ODST, and Reach screenshots will be competing against one another for honor and glory! Now you can have that dynamic duo shot in The Pit like you always wanted!

You can haz co-op!

For the first (and maybe only) time in the history of screenshot contests, you can submit a screenshot with a friend in it, and both you and your friend can take the credit (long as one of you takes the picture of course). What does this mean to everyone? There could be two people walking away with the screenshot award this month (last time I checked, those were hard to come by). Please note that only two people can take credit for one screenshot, and in the event that your co-op buddy submits a picture for his or herself, all bets are off and you two will be competing rather than working together!

Choose your partner wisely.

What if I'm forever alone?

In the event that all your friends are playing other games, you can take a screenshot with your fellow buddies like the Arbiter, Master Chief, Buck, Dutch, Carter, Kat, and that marine you just saved from an Elite ultra. Just make sure you're the one taking the screenshot. ;)

When does the contest start and end?

Submissions start right........now, and end on Wednesday, February 16th @ 11:59 PM CST. The voting thread will be up a few days after the 16th. This should give you and your friend enough time to make that awesome double assassination screenshot!

Submission Rules

The screenshot must be taken by you. Depending on the theme, you are allowed to have people help and/or be in the shot, as long as the screenshot is taken by you. (Please read on for methods of showing proof)



You are allowed to have your partner also take credit for the screenshot, but once you change your screenshot, or he/she takes a screenshot of their own, all bets are off!



Post your screenshot in this thread. You are allowed to change your submission anytime during the submission period.



You (and your partner) can only have one submission, and it must be taken during this contest. (2/4 - 2/16)




Along with your submission, please include:



The title of the screenshot.
a link to your Halo 3, ODST, or Reach file share, recent screenshots, or screenshot gallery page on Bungie.net (http://www.bungie.net/default.aspx).
The name of your partner who also wants to take credit (if necessary)




The screenshot does not need to be posted in the Halo 3, ODST, or Reach Gallery forum, but you must embed it into this thread when submitting it. To find out how to correctly obtain and embed screenshots, please refer to this thread (http://www.xforgery.com/forum/showthread.php?t=561).



Your screenshot must have a fellow partner fighting or posing alongside you. Human or AI!




Offensive, inappropriate, or tampered submissions (Ex: Using photoshop) will be deleted.



Winners will receive the following:

Would this stretch down to two vehicles together?

I can't see how this would be much more different to the NPC example in the thread.

You and your partner, or NPC buddy can be in a different vehicle (you kind of have to for ghosts). Although I personally believe that when it comes to the voting thread, the voters may not get what you're trying to do if the picture feels random.

Edit: In regards to your picture, no that wouldn't count. I'm surprised you didn't submit that for last months contest! That would of won in my book!

What about if it's me, and a buddy, and a bunch of dead bodies. Would that be going to far in person count?

You still have to name this. I suggest "Through The Looking Glass" :)

edit: Fileshare says "Winter Containment." Not bad. :D

Well Psycho, you sure live up to your title of "Master Procrastinator".

With that, submissions have ended. Good luck to all the participants in the voting phase.
