Site Updates & The Great Sandwich Debate

​

Hey, you there! Listen to me! We here at HaloCustoms have a few cool new updates that we want to share with you to make your custom gaming easier and more fun. But more importantly is a crucial debate that has broken apart friendships, torn families apart, and even caused complete strangers to start fights. No this isn't another coming of the Crusades, this is something much bigger...​

**THE GREAT SAMMICH DEBATE**​

Fellow forumgoers, today I pose to you a query of extreme importance. A query which is tied to what is perhaps the greatest dilemma presented to mankind: where can one get the best sammich? of course this debate is a big one, encompassing numerous varieties of sammich, served at a multitude of locations throughout the world. However, for the sake of this debate only two sammich joints are being examined: Quiznos and Subway.​

​

On one side we have our beloved admin Insane54 vowing that Subway has the more premium sammiches at a better price. In the other corner we have THFE's finest; Psychoduck shouting from the rooftops about how Quiznos makes the better sandwiches.​

​

​

Just this afternoon, I found myself engaged in debate with community manager InsaneFiddyFo regarding this very issue. I personally believe in the dominance of the toasty Quiznos sammich, while our community manager believes that the fresh Subway is superior. So, I extend the question to you, the community: which of these establishments is the vendor of the better sammich? Leave your responses in the comments below! -PsychoDuck

​

..Erm anyways, back to the site updates. As many of you have noticed we have a new rank system in place!

Updated user ranks. They're based on trophy score (http://halocustoms.com/help/trophies), and the names are based off of the Halo 4 commendation ranks:
Novice >= 0
Qualified >= 10
Proficient >= 20
Adept >= 40
Expert >= 60
Distinguished >= 80
Master >= 100

These are all subject to change in the future.

Another thing people may have noticed is that now every time you RSVP in a custom lobby thread, a tab in your browser is opened up. This tab actually opens to xbox.com, and if logged into that site it will direct you to message the host of the lobby! This makes it very easy for both the community and the host to communicate. Now as soon as you RSVP you can message your host from your computer with 'inv' or whatever silly message you can come up with. Also, underneath the RSVP buttons is an additional link to message your host in case you want to send him more messages.


Gold Host
We would also like to remind people of the great and noble rank of *GOLD HOST*. These members get a specially highlighted lobby and a custom title! "OH WAKKO, HOW DO WE GET SUCH A RANK!?!?" Don't worry, it's very doable. All you need to do to get this rank is get 25 positive host ratings! Here are some tips that might help get people to rate your lobbies after you're done hosting:

The VIP System:
Used by the likes of our very own first Gold Host, spiteful, this method encourages people to go back to the thread and rate the host. By rating, they will be put on the VIP list for the host's next lobby which guarantees an invite.

The @ Tag:
A new feature that may help hosts to remind their parties to rate them is the @ tag. Simply type @UsersNameHere and the user will receive a notification that they were tagged. After your party is over you can simply @ tag everyone that RSVP'd for your game in the game thread itself. To make it a little less ugly you can always hide it in a spoiler too!
EX:

Insane54 Psychoduck Hey guys hoped you enjoyed the games and your sandwiches, don't forget to rate me as a host!

One final thing, for those of you who use the Light skin over the Dark skin (Light), you'll notice it is much more up-to-date with the features that were added to the Dark skin.

That's it for now everyone, thanks!!

 

WENDYS IS KING OF THE FAST FOOD BURGER.

No. No. NO NO NO

Burgers are not meant to be square!

 

Subways > Quiznos
Subway is basically everywhere where i live so i have a much higher bias based on subway.
Quiznos when i went there sure it seemed like they had more meat on the sandwich but they didn't have as many options as subway does and the bread was wet, and that alone easily makes me gag,
It seems like Subway gives the customers better service like everyone seems happy that they want to be there even at 00:00 In the morning.
when i went to Quiznos at 00:00 the girl just looked so Unpleasant i just wanted to book it outta there.
SUBWAY all the way

What? Why? You literally get more burger!

Wendy's doesn't .... *puts shades on*... cut corners.

 

WENDYS IS KING OF THE FAST FOOD BURGER.

This man is correct. By far, the juiciest and most delicious burger you can get from a fast-food joint. And like Señor Ocelot said, they are incredibly, blazingly speedy. And also always, 100% of the time, on top of their shit when it comes to your order.

Easy there... You must not be familiar with In N Out.

 

Oh, I am. It's almost too close to call, but I honestly think Wendy's might be better. Dicks is really good too, but I think that's toeing the line of being too local to count.

Mock is quite a fan of good ol' Dicks. Best meat in town.

Best burger: Buy ground beef. Make patty. Fill with seasonings and good shit. Grill. Consume.

This is LITerally, the best thing I've ever tasted.

 

I dont know. I really do like those meatball sandwiches from subway
but its hard for me to choose because I have only seen subway

 

Let's put it this way- Name any other sandwich shop, big or small, across the planet, and it's probably better than both Subway and Quiznos.

 

Great update guys, also, I prefer my food to be home cooked, it's a lot cheaper....
