Just got my Oni mouse pad... Man, they ship these things out quick. I just ordered it two days ago, via the slowest, cheapest method.
Anyway, enclosed are my ten Bungie Points, accompanied by the following message:
"A Personal Message From Bungie Software to You"
"Our corporate philosophy has always been simple: Make games that are so much fun to play, so involving, our satisfied customers won't even blink when we seize the reins of global power.
"That said, we'd like to thank you for choosing our online store. Dedicated fans like you have made our sales skyrocket over the last few years, and we're very, very grateful. In return, we try hard to exceed our customers' expectations. After all, while lots of software companies will take your money, no one else promises you a future of unparallelled joy and prosperity where the good and the just are rewarded with cool Bungie swag while the corrupt and vile are fired into the sun by an enormous slingshot. We're not quite there yet, but thanks to your continued support our plans for world domination are right on schedule.
"So, to better express our gratitude to you right here and now, we've decided to give you, our most dedicated customer, a head start on the 'cool Bungie swag' part of the deal by introducing Bungie Points. Bungie Points are a simple way of quantifying your devotion to Bungie. Collect Bungie Points from Bungie game boxes, orders from the Bungie Store (like this), and various other special offers and promotions.
"As you collect more and more Bungie Points, you may notice certain changes in your life. Friends and co-workers may begin to speak to you in subdued, almost reverential tones. Previously unimaginable numbers of attractive people may 'accidentally' bump into you and strike up conversations. Your dog may start fetching the paper in the morning, if your parakeet doesn't eat it first. But the real thrill comes when you visit http://store.bungie.com/special/bungiepoints.html and swap those accumulated Bungie Points for cool Bungie swag!
"Basically, what we're offering here is a ticket to a never-ending rollercoaster of Bungie-style pleasure, and all we ask is that you keep buying Bungie stuff, preferably direct from us and in large quantities. Sound good to you? We thought so."
