Will you win it all?

Halo: Reach players are in with yet another chance to win some big time credits this weekend, as the Super Jackpot Weekend kicks off again. 343 Industries Forum Moderator, Spectral Jester, made the announcement via the forums:

Starting on Friday and ending on Sunday, hopping into the Big Team Battle playlist will present you with the chance of receiving a 20,000-credit bonus. And who couldn’t use that?The Super Jackpot Weekend will be live right now until Sunday, April 22nd. Even though the finishing time has not been specified, it's safe to assume the event will end at midnight PST on the Sunday, similar to the last Halo: Reach event we covered.

Good luck!

I never ever win these! My friends would jump on for a bit, get it and then just leave, while I'm a faitful Halo player who plays on a daily basis and never quit during games.
If you are here... then who did I kill?!

I think they're using all these jackpots to dilute the credit market and rob reach ranks of meaning so more people will buy 4. Or maybe I'm just cynical.

Finally the jackpot is in a playlist I actually enjoy playing in. Hopefully I can get enough games in to rack up 3 or 4 of the jackpots.
