Be careful people, this is a sure fire way to get yourself removed from The Mill. Oni As reported yesterday, the Oni site was supposed to go up today. Due to a server going down last night, it's been pushed back 24 hours. : ( June 10 1999 Bungie.org news Hmm. Wasn't yesterday the 9th? Or did I just skip that day? You know with all our network and hardware problems the past 10 days, it wouldn't surprise me. A big thank you goes to Claude Errera, while I was trying to keep the network up, he was able to "pick up the extra load", thanks Claude! A very "rare" editorial today. If it is of interest, then go ahead and read it. PID Another submission concerning the "entire" game with no cheats! I remember how special it was when I finally finished and also how disappointed I was in the helicopter seen at the end. Wonder if it would be possible to add a better helicopter cut scene at the end. Probably would, but no PID editor. : ( Marathon What did happen to the Marathon 2 Rave edition? While we're at it, what happened to the Marathon 2 patch? The Story page has all the answers for the curious. Myth Another Myth site going by the wayside? The Mill climbs over 30 thousand hits.
