Congratulations to Shiner Chick for being May’s Cavegirl of the month! She was choosen for her outstanding organization and activity as the captain of the Rec Team - Cortana’s Daughters. They have been doing lots of challenges lately, and I thought we would highlight their captain for May. Not only that, she is also an alternate for the Pro Team, and I hear she is a fantastic cook! If you would like to challenge The Rec team, head on over to our forums and put in a request. Now, on to the interview!

You are the Rec Team captain, can you tell us a little more about the team?

I’m kinda strange to start with..lol I guess my special talent would have to be my cooking. I use to be horrible at it too but now I am really good at it.

What is your greatest Halo 3 accomplishment so far?
hmmm…thats a tough one. I guess the other day I was playing I think it was multi flag on Avalanche. I was sniping and I sniped the gunner out of the warthog. They were fliping over and moving behind something so i could barley see them. I generally can’t hit anyone in the warthog while i am sniping so I was proud of myself.

Eek took this one. We were playing rocket race and I was on the back. I hit a fusion core and we went flying super high.
