For those of you who got in the Halo 3 beta via the Rule of Three program and didn't get your code, then listen up. Bungie says they that they did sent out all the codes and that people who are reporting that they didn't get them probably had the email blocked, misplaced, or is laying in their junk email. So, yesterday Bungie resent the Rule of Three beta codes between 6 and 7:00PM eastern time from email addresses similar to [email protected]. And so be sure to check your junk mail box or look for an email from Microsoft between that time interval. Also note that this second email includes the same Halo 3 beta code that was sent to your email from the other day. So, if you are already playing the beta, simply ignore this new email.

(Page 1)2. My friend got the same acceptance email I did but never received his code. It's not in his junk mail (we both use hotmail) and he's not an idiot.
Does anyone know who he should contact about this issue? We were really excited to play, and now that I have mine and he doesn't I dont even want to play anymore.

4. There are rumors that over half of the Rule of 3 winners (6000+ people) never received their first beta code emails and did not receive the second email attempt. If you visit the bungie.net forums you can find several threads that are still swelling with complaints. To Bungie's credit, they had several forum moderators Thursday evening who were copying and pasting codes (via email) for people in an effort to get the winners their beta codes. Apparently MS didn't like that because, today (Friday) Bungie is no longer being allowed to help anyone with this issue. I doubt any of those who've not yet gotten their codes will EVER see them now with MS in charge of helping us.
I find it odd that I get every other piece of ad/promotion email (including the email sent announcing the H3 release date) from Bungie and MS but for some wacky reason, I can't get this one lousy email? Something seems fishy and it ain't on my end.
I've enjoyed my 360 but this kind of shoddy customer service makes me root for Sony and Nintendo.

5. Didn't get it the 1st or second time- not in the beta. Man, that it is pretty disappointing to see people on my friends list playing it while I can't. To think, I got accepted late into the Shadowrun beta, during midterms. By the time I was free from school, the beta finished. Talk about bad timing. Guess I'm left with GHII and Catan for a while. Damn you Lincoln, damn you to hell.

1. I did get the second e-mail, with the same key. It caught me off guard for a moment, but nice to see someone is on the ball.
