: No, I did not! Can you show me some examples? In any case, I probably would
: have to pin that as an illegal move.

Four places off the top of my head:

Sword Base, Air-View base - there is a Phantom that hovers around but is non-aggressive. If you destroy it before activating the AA gun, another will come. Repeat ad infinitum.

Beach on Long Night of Solace - after getting the door to open, if you hang around more dropships will continually arrive with more infantry. Kill them for infinite points.

New Alexandria skies - At all moments, if you continue to fly around, more banshees and phantoms will come into the city. It's fastest if you wait until you've done the three main objectives and then hang around the ONI Olympic tower picking off banshees since they swarm in greater numbers.

Pillar of Autumn - Early Mass Driver - if you use a concussion rifle and some grenades (with tilt) or a drop shield you can get up there while emile is supposed to be shooting down phantoms and Banshees and Phantoms will slowly, but infinitely, enter the area for points.

There is a couple of ways you could deal with this, you could either say:
"You must finish each level in under X time" or
"you can earn no more than Y points from the levels with infinite spawns."

Personally I'd probably go with the first and say no more than 30 minutes on any level. Or you could tailor the time limit to each level.

: Nope. Put on any skulls you want. Or all, if that's your thing. Use those
: multipliers to your advantage! Just be careful--even on Easy,
: "EASO" or "Virgin Mythic" will still be pretty rough.

The highest scorers are definitely going to be EASO runs then.

: That sounds like a great idea--keeps everybody happy! Thanks for that
: suggestion.

I got the idea from a contest HSH was considering doing a few years back: Everyone would know the speed run time of the second place run, but the 1st place time would be kept secret until the contest was over.

Is this open to everyone, anywhere, or is it just USA only? Region 1?

Cus I would consider going for the Halo 4 one, but it'd be pointless if it wouldn't work on my PAL Xbox or if it cost the same again to ship it to me :P
