Halo Babies / Halo Babies is a Halo-based online comic strip that originated with art work produced by Lorraine McLees. These strips are drawn by talented artist, Joel "Gruntsbane" Casebeer. If you like Halo, and you like a good laugh, check out what Halo Babies has to offer! en-us mrsmiley@halobabies.net 2009-06-06T23:04:50+00:00 hourly 1 2000-01-01T12:00+00:00 HBN 3.0 Coming Soon http://www.halobabies.net/archive/09/06/06/hbn_30_coming_soon/ I don't have any details to give out yet, other than if HBN goes offline here and there in the next month, please be patient! I will start the process of transferring the HBN database from Moveable Type to Wordpress this month, and it is a HUGE undertaking. With this, I plan on some pretty big improvements and upgrades to the Halo Babies community that will hopefully boost both user interaction, and site activity as a whole.

Big thanks to everyone who has stuck with us through the rough times. I love you all!

In the Wild Card round, all the members of HBN had the opportunity to vote for their own favorite submissions. There was a good response, and I think the winner is quite deserving for his efforts. For those wondering, the "twist" was that the artist of the screenshot was all we counted for points, not the picture they submitted. So if someone had 5 votes for one pictures, and 5 votes for another, we just counted the artist as having 10 votes.

Yay.

Read on for the winner and runner-ups that YOU chose, and stay tuned for the grand prize winner soon!

Round 4 has finally come to an end, and only one entrant will be moving on to try to win the game of their choice. This was the closest competition yet, forcing us to do several recounts to make sure the winner was correct. The winner and runners up were separated by only one vote each! Read on for the winner + runners up, as well as a special announcement for those who didn't win!
