Welcome to the [url=http://www.parkeasier.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/bigstock_Welcome_To_The_Future_Green_Ro_11944688.jpg]new Supdates[/url].

[b][u]Where’ve you been, El Chumpinator?[/u][/b]
Well, I can give the easy, true answer, or the [url=http://www.viking-mythology.com/img/viking-going-berserk.jpg]painstakingly fabricated fable of my meteoric and heroic rise into the ranks of the Nordic Gods[/url]. But I’ll give the easy answer, because I’m [url=http://one-elevenbooks.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/GarfieldLazy.jpg]lazy[/url].
I found time to be dwindling during the week, so Supdates were becoming a burden on my schedule, since they usually take a few hours to compose. I’m a [url=http://41.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcbg6hHRfp1qasthro1_1280.jpg]busy man[/url] during the summer.
Now, I’ve got the help of some phenomenal individuals, so Supdates should have some extra [url=http://images.rapgenius.com/4tsoerbh99teg0r24z9ex0q9x.900x900x1.jpg]spice[/url] to them. (I’m the one with the pony tails.)
[u][b]What is the Supdate?[/b][/u]
The [url=http://www.villagebaptisthome.org/sites/default/files/Greatness.jpg]Bungie Community Humpday Supdate[/url] can [url=http://www.drjasoncarthen.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/greatnessa.png]only[/url] be [url=https://m1.behance.net/rendition/modules/38843603/disp/b7d58a2b5dc0e3681bc8fb77bbadf7bc.jpg]described[/url] with [url=http://www.challies.com/sites/all/files/greatness-awaits.jpg]one word[/url][url=https://theworddetective.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/mediocrity.jpg].[/url]
The Supdates are a collection of great community threads, events, contests, and people, which resembles a newspaper with an attitude, or an editorial piece with actual information in it.

relliK42 here!
I still enjoy the fact that the Bungie.net forums are a main staple to the website because they always contain interesting topics. Anyone visiting the site for the first time can be overwhelmed by the amount of discussions taking place. Let us break it down and take a look into some of the topics users wanted to talk about this week in #Destiny,#Offtopic, #Community and #Gaming.
For starters, the Destiny forum received a topic where [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/140341156/0/0]one guardian’s aim[/url] was true…using a block from the Vault of Glass. The video captures it all.
Next, Tartan 118 brought up the discussion of a [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/139774005/0/0]soldier’s remarkable thoughts[/url] on Caitlyn Jenner’s bravery award in the Offtopic Forum.
The Community forum also received some love this week as Cozmo, our new Community Manager, decided to drop in and discuss where the [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/140400343/0/0]Community[/url] should be headed.
Users can also find a highly rated thread discussing everyone’s opinions on the [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/86555053/0/0]best story[/url] found within a video game.
Finally, you should all remember that the [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/News/News?aid=13117]Destiny art contest[/url] will open up on [url=http://www.peachridgeglass.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/23JulyArt.jpg]July 23rd[/url]! Create your best videos, art and music showcasing your favorite thing about the first year of Destiny. More information can be found here.
Next week’s supdate will definitely contain more popular thread highlights. See you all on the forums!
[b][u]Game Night Recap![/u][/b] (Special thanks to Mechetti for the game night information!)
This week held quite a few game nights, and I'm certain next week will too!
The [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Forum/15287]Community Carnage[/url] continued their Summer League celebrations with [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/15287/139584536/0/0]Halo: Reach[/url], hosted by [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Profile/254/2713193]DE4TH[/url]! Unfortunately, this game night was an Xbox 360 exclusive.
The guys over at [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Forum/1535]FCAW[/url] held 2 game nights this week! The first was [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/1535/139092204/0/0]Myth[/url], hosted by [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Profile/254/88626]Atom95[/url], but unfortunately, no one showed up! And yesterday, they had some fun over in [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/1535/140360768/0/0]M1A1[/url]!
[b][u]Game Nights![/u][/b]
This next week has 2 Game Nights in store for you. And you don't want to miss at least one of them.
The [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Forum/1535]FCAW[/url] crew has decided to play [url=http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/50/header.jpg?t=1421369361]Half-Life Opposing Force[/url]. Prepare your buttocks for this one, and, your crowbars too.
The [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Forum/15287]Community Carnage[/url] will be continuing their Summer League festivities. But, how, is shrouded in mystery. For now, check out the updated [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/15287/109116277/0/0]Schedule[/url]!
[u][b]Art, Literature, and other Community Content![/u][/b]
Hello! I'm Progo, and this is some of the best art around!
This week I am featuring Ghost Eden, a talented 3D sculptor and painter, and DarkMechanic, another superb artist. We asked Ghost what got him excited enough to make such awesome art:
[b]Ghost:[/b] "Destiny found in me the inspiration to start again and reassess all my skills. With each new piece, I aim to get better, get more attentive to detail and without the Amazing artists on the Bungie team I wouldn't have a goal or aspiration to work towards. It all started shortly before the release of the game."
Here's a concept he created for a Hive enemy type [url]http://i.imgur.com/UYvVpre.jpg[/url]
You can view more of Ghost's art [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/3biicn/fan_concept_dragonslayers_proxy/]here[/url].
DarkMechanic is a talented member, and I today I am featuring his skills in a portrait of a titan he was commissioned to make. This is his masterpiece [url=http://pre02.deviantart.net/f821/th/pre/i/2015/194/7/3/titan__destiny_commission__by_darkmechanic-d9140ez.jpg]here[/url].
Back to you Burn!
[u][b]Member of the Week![/u][/b]
The member of the week this week is someone that’s put in a ton of work for the community, mostly behind the scenes, and really doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He doesn’t know that we’re doing this, so there isn’t an interview, but he deserves a little recognition.
This week, the member of the week is relliK42. He, along with Mechetti, are pretty much responsible for the return of the supdates, and we really wouldn’t be able to operate without him. He’s been a driving force behind a lot of community events, and I personally would like to thank him for his help in righting the ship. So with that, thank you rellik. You’re our member of the week.

“Well he was slumped over the toilet and smelled like death, so I just left and ate the rest of my grilled stuffed burrito.”

Whoever finds the sneaky link first gets nothing, except the satisfaction of being the person that found it. But there is one, so look for it, because it changes everything.
Other than that, [url=https://nudgewinkreport.files.wordpress.com/2014/08/say-nothin.jpg]I don’t really have anything left to say[/url]. Have a good week [url=http://www.doodlecat.com/uploaded_images/ThatsAll-724485.jpg]folks[/url], and we’ll see you next humpday!

Still waiting for some form of bungie employee to explain to us why the games story changed so much and why most the game was taken out and sold for DLC -_- because 2 years ago in the vidoc there was taken king gameplay in it
