Frankie's Bungie.net Avatar
Frank "Frankie" O'Connor was an old skool employee, part of the Bungie.net Community Team. His Bungie.net title was Content Monkey, meaning that he (sometimes with the help of Brian Jarrard, or more recently, Luke Smith) wrote the Bungie Weekly Updates which usually centered on Bungie in general and current Bungie projects. Frankie is well known for his reflective bald head and poorly disguised Scottish accent.
In the May 16, 2008 update it was announced that Frankie would be leaving Bungie. He now heads up the Microsoft subsidiary 343 Industries, which has taken over the support and development of new content for the Halo franchise.
His Bungie.net title is now Mister Chief, which is reference to Frankie drawing pictures of Mister Chief in weird situations.

Now a long-serving jerk at Bungie and still the subject of relentless, painful and invasive hazing, Frank O'Connor is a 12-year veteran of the videogame magazine industry and has therefore never worked an honest day in his life. His contributions to society include the expression, "Fans of the genre will love it, but others, try before you buy," and the mistaken belief that "Woot!" is a universal exclamation of delight. His greatest legitimate Halo feat was a fully-witnessed, partial-Warthog Xbox LAN "Killtacular."
