Well, I tried submitting some news to Halo Waypoint/343/whatever... Apparently this isn't as cool as a styrofoam Saw. I spent 3 hours on the web with a calculator and an Excel Spreadsheet pulling these stats together. I'll at least share this with you guys. Enjoy!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7,563 Spartans have attained the rank of Inheritor in Halo: Reach. But only 4 can claim to have completed a marathon beyond Unfrigginbelievable - Bad Terminator, DH1762, HWM ICEBIRD, and Pokenut have completed 117 of 117 Weekly Challenges in Halo: Reach; an accomplishment worthy of the Master Chief and a target goal for these players.

Here's a few stats that will show the immensity of their accomplishment. Stats are for all 4 participants.

They have played Halo: Reach for 228 Days, 0 Hours, and 54 Minutes. That's like signing in on January 1st at 12AM and finally quitting on August 16th just before 1AM. This equals over 2.5 years of 40 hour work weeks. In the 117 weeks since Halo: Reach released, these gamers have averaged 46.77 hours a week on Halo: Reach (or 11.69 hours each).

They have completed 7,493 Daily Challenges. It would take 1 person 5 years of completing all challenges every day to reach that number.

They have won 14,409 games in Matchmaking with a Win Percentage of 59.84%.

They have killed 356,137 Spartans in Matchmaking and they've died 281,808 times. Their K/D is +74,329 for an average of 1.26 Kills per Death. Along the way they've earned 49,461 Assists and 509,476 Total Medals in Matchmaking.

They've played a lot of (too damn much!) Grifball to complete these challenges. These 4 Spartans alone have gotten 99,163 Gravity Hammer Kills, (27.8% of their total kills). The next highest weapon of choice is the DMR with 82,009 kills, (23.0%).

They've passed bullets through 108,540 brains in Matchmaking making Headshots count for a substantial 30.4% of their kills and 21.3% of their total Matchmaking Medals.

Bet you can't kill just 1! These Spartans have put up 57,991 Multikill Medals in Matchmaking for 11.3% of their Matchmaking Medals.

Why not tack on a few while we're at it? 21,640 Spree Medals in Matchmaking for 4.2% of their Matchmaking Medals.

I'll just leave this here... They have scored 3,043 Objectives (Bomb Planted/Flag Captured) in Matchmaking.

It's not all fun and war games... These Spartans have decimated the Covenant with 972,018 Kills in Firefight and Campaign. They been killed by those Covie Pineapple 33,586 times. The K/D ratio is 28.94. They've put up 340,659,892 points in Firefight and 38,577,181 points in Campaign.

Of the 92,859 Spartans that have earned credits on Halo: Reach (according to Halotracker) only 4 can claim to have completed all 117 Weekly Challenges. I'd give you a percentage on that one but I think I just fried my calculator. Bottom line, well done Bad Terminator, DH1762, HWM ICEBIRD, and Pokenut.

For further reading...
Pokenut hosted a Bungie.net forum group to discuss the challenges and help others complete the challenges here: http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/qf52/Group/GroupHome.aspx

HWM ICEBIRD has kept his Halo Wheelmen community up to date with his progess, (at one point he considered quitting after 40), in this forum thread: viewtopic.php?f=114&t=13226

Lars, I will post the above stats in a Waypoint Thread. I was holding out to see if 343 would post them in their news feed.

yep, you're one dedicated gamer

HBO loves you Bird.

Well done sir, that is truly awesome. Hope you didn't skip out on any vacation to stay home and get the challenges.

Got 117 Weekly challenges done AND took a few vacations. Got lucky with the timing and required skill on a few of those challenges.
