Confessions of an Infinity Challenge Winner

In the aftermath of the Infinity Challenge I got in touch with some of the world’s top scoring players to get their views on what had happened and how they played. It makes an interesting read!

Crippling boredom, damage done to your body with caffeine pills and energy drinks and lack of sleep…

Pathetic, can’t believe people are this sad.

Plus it just shows how unfair these types of competitions are, You have no chance to win against people like this.

Congratulations are in order for the winners…but still I have to wonder just how good the Infinity Challenge really was. Most people had no chance of winning this with people playing Halo 4 non-stop. That is the problem with most “Highest score/most games played wins” contests.

Would’ve loved to win the Spartan Ops one and appear in a Halo game, but I had no chance to win that with a job and college.

Should have been called the XP Challenge…

Nice read

Yeah, that’s pretty much the reason I didn’t even try. Just kept on thinking “there is some sad American playing this 24/7 while eating nachos and Mountain Dew”

I heard that.

Good read. I had been thinking of doing something similar but you beat me to the punch. I write a blog on an entirely different subject matter (work related stuff) but have been thinking of writing about Halo and the Halo community.

I think its sad that all this challenge was was “Who can play Halo 4 the most without sleep?” Which killed at least 80% of people who were competing chances.

The Infinity Challenge is a bit of a joke. But wow.

They’ve had plenty of competitions for best halo players and none of us won any of those either. I think it is kinda cool they gave a chance to the most “persistant” players.

Congrats to the winners. Interesting read… I can’t believe these guys did that. But you definitely earned your prizes

It’s sad that halo has gone from the best skill based shooter out there to this. This represents everyting that is wrong with halo.

I knew better than to give this challenge any thought.

Im so glad i drop the challenge…for that matter energy drink…i dont call that dedication at all, i call that a waste of time…However, he’s got a drawback…

Press (Y)

Just for the record, if they wanted a real challenge, SpOps Inf Challenge should’ve been skill based on Legendary Solo missions. Co-Op is lazy work, IMO. i only do it to rank up faster.

I guess they deserved it but wow, that is extremely sad.

Good read. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the read - I was wondering what high-ranking gamers went through to place. Clearly using strategy to their advantage was a factor. Although the same mission 1000+ times, dang.

this tourny embodies everything wrong with H4…
