"Kek":

The design in question was initially created as part of gear foundry explorations in June of 2015.

As I said, everything gets logged.

Edit:

To date, the high watermark for the total number of players online at the same moment, battling aliens and making the world safe, is over 1.3 Million.

Wow.

This pretty much sums it up.

So I'm just gonna take a minute to opine about the matchmaking algorithm. "Quickplay was designed to be quick." Ha. Hahaha. Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Ahem. Ha. Seriously, the matchmaking is slower than a dead slug.

Yeah, not a lot to make fun of here. Slow day and all that. Carry on.

No offense, K., but my hope is that there is less and less to make fun of and this dies. The battle against cynicism and snark is hard enough without it becoming institutionalized.

I hope it dies, too. I started the summary because I wanted a summary of what was in the TWAB without actually having the click the link. If people keep posting summaries in the initial post like this, I won't need one.

The snark is because I like jokes. If there's a battle against jokes, I hope the anti-joke team loses badly. Cynicism is not the same as snark. Don't conflate a feeling that everything is falling apart for a desire to make fun of things.

I like jokes, too. I'm a growly bear today. It's not you, it's me.

I will say it's nice to see so much excitement around here since launch. I guess we can thank Bungie for putting out a better game.

I would like to note, that is seems to me that more and more in the day to day, you are a growly bear. That you have to make a note where you take an action, then apologize for your mood. It has me subtly concerned. I have no idea how on the mark I am on this observation, so make of this observation as you will.

Be excellent to each other. I fully support this as a motto to live by, but I also enjoy the Bill & Ted references dropped by Bungie.
