The 2016 HFFL event official name and logo reveal!

Posted on by

Okay folks, here is yet another article to show you all that I’m 100% committed to making a Halo fan convention happen. This is the official name of the convention as well as the logo.

SpartanCom

Spartan Com logo

I went with ‘COM’ instead of ‘CON’ for a couple of reasons. First, SpartanCon was taken…

So thinking quickly, I know that the military shortened jargon for the word ‘Command’ in ‘Com’. You can even find this in several Halo references as well. Also, since we now have Spartan Companies in Halo 5, I though ‘Com’ could also reference ‘Company’.

The logo is a nod to Master Chief’s visor with the ‘O’ in Com a nod to a Halo ring.

I’ve already set up Twitter, and Facebook pages for the convention. Also, I have two e-mails associated with the convention. The first is [email protected] and the other, [email protected]. The HaloFanForLife e-mail is the more official one, though I’ll check the yahoo one as well.

I have the website already secured as SpartanCom.Org. I’m currently building that. When it’s ready to launch you’ll see the first post about it HERE!

So another cog is put into place!

What do you think of the logo and name??

Oh and if you’re on twitter and/or Facebook, please give each a follow and like! Much appreciated!!

Cartographer’s Gift December 2015 Update

This is a reblog from HaloWaypoint:

Last month, Battle of Shadow and Light, the first free Halo 5: Guardians content update released, bringing with it new REQs and Big Team Battle. This week, the next free update brings Forge in Cartographer’s Gift. Since the introduction of Forge in Halo 3, the community has been creating, sharing, and pushing the mode to its absolute limits. With Forge in Halo 5: Guardians, the only limit is your imagination. The new Forge was built with years of community feedback in mind, and arrives just in time for the holidays.

Giving more power and control to the Forge community was the primary goal, and community feedback will continue to fuel the evolution of Forge as we update the mode with new features and content. Here are just some of the features launching with Forge in Cartographer’s Gift: Continue reading →
