Introducing dboTV

If you missed last week's teaser, I'll get you up to speed: dboTV is a Destiny news show that will air every Tuesday at 10:00 pm EDT (7:00 pm PDT) at twitch.tv/DestinyBungieOrg. The first episode premieres TONIGHT, so tune in if you want to catch up on a week's worth of Destiny news. (Or if you're already up-to-date, stop by anyways and join the live chat! The pre-show fun starts at around 9:45 / 6:45.) Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be in my trailer practicing my lines.

D.B.Oh the Humanity

If you haven't been tricked by MoltenSlowa's deceptive forum thread titles yet, you might not be aware that he's been working with community members Padraig, Bones, and Unhh on a Bungie.Org-themed version of the risqué party game Cards Against Humanity. There's still time to submit your own card ideas, but that window closes this week - so get moving! (If you're confused by the concept, this forum post might help clear things up.)

Equip your Guardian with a DBO Shirt

Sharp-eyed followers of our E3 coverage may have noticed some exotic loot being tested by the away team: official DBO shirts! Our friend kanbo put these together for us and now he's ready to take orders from the entire community. Here are the details:

• The front design was created by GrimBrotherOne and Leviathan.
• The back of the shirt has a small DBO logo printed under the collar. (Design by Dean Hofmeyer.)
• The shirts are made of thin, preshrunk cotton with a comfort fit cut; we're really happy with how these feel.
• The default color is heather purple (in case we all want to match at events like PAX) but for a limited time you can also order in heather blue, heather grey, and white. Ink color is white or black, depending on shirt color.
• The current shirt cost is $11.50 (plus $3 for shipping). Kanbo can offer this price only by ordering in bulk, so shirt cost and color availability may change in the future.
• This superior tunic has a combat level of 35 and comes with a +2 style bonus.

You can order your shirt on kanbo's site, DownPixel.com.

Firestream had some time today, and created a pair of DBO-specific desktops (Variant 1 | Variant 2) - grab one and show off our beautiful logo whenever you're at your computer! These are enormous - 3200x2400, weighing in at about 3.5 mb each - so you can scale them to almost any screen. If a DBO-specific desktop doesn't cut it for you, check out his Tricorn version - 1920x1200, just over 300kb. Love this one too!

DBO gets not one, but TWO Twitter feeds

I was convinced, after MUCH debate, to add a news-only Twitter feed to HBO a little while ago. Turns out, it's a pretty useful tool for folks with Twitter accounts who want to keep track of new content from their favorite fansite. (We ARE your favorite fansite, aren't we? AREN'T WE?) So the question of a Twitter account for DBO was never really about 'do we do it?' but 'how do we do it?'

The crew of DBO is much more socially integrated than the old guard at HBO - there was a lot of push for a fully interactive feed. You can tweet us Destiny news, we can tweet you DBO posts, and we can answer your questions. But what about people who really just want notifications of new newsposts at DBO? Should they be left out in the cold (or have their Twitter stream inundated with discussion they're not interested in) just because they don't feel like jumping to our front page every once in a while?

Our solution was simple: we've got TWO feeds. One is just newsposts - it's a mirror of the HBO Twitter feed. You get a headline, and a link to the full article if you want to read it. The other includes these posts, as well... but ALSO allows full interaction. A number of people will be monitoring the feed, and responding to tweets from you, the public. You get to choose how much DBO to put in your Twitter stream. Either way, you get a GORGEOUS new piece of artwork from Levi to look at - please do NOT miss it.

Grab your goggles and ogle this DBO logo

Ta-da! We've finally selected a logo from the many, many awesome and wonderful submissions over the last few weeks. Congratulations to Dean Hofmeyer for coming up with what ended up being the "winning" entry in our Community Collaboration. ncsuDuncan has the full scoop in the forums, so go check it out and join in the converstaion.

And a HUGE "thank you" to everyone who submitted their designs and took part in the discussion to help find our brand. You are awesome!

Sacred Icon

DBO needs a new logo and we're giving you the chance to pitch your ideas! Check out this thread in the forum and start brainstorming.
