Finally — finally — for the first time since I started playing Halo matchmaking has my overall kill/death ratio gone above one. Finally!

In Halo 3 I’d accumulated a 0.9‑ish deficit, particularly due to Grifball. And after the chaotic first few weeks of Reach when the fresh matchmaking system could barely distinguish the l33ts and n00bs — I suspect it’s because as far as it was concerned, everybody had the same amount of experience — I think I had managed to get to 0.87 at one point, and until fairly recently was down by almost 60 kills.

So yea, I managed to claw back all those kills, and my overall K/D ratio is finally respectable. Finally.

I think my next “near-term” target is to get my Rumble Pit K/D ratio back up to one. Currently down by 24 kills on that playlist — damn you Infection, and thank fuck Bungie’s broke it off into its own playlist.
