uhh . . . that was Megatron!

Yeah, you're right. Megatron transformed into a pistol. Metatron apparently transforms into a flaming sword (Gen 3:24).

Wait. Flaming sword? Energy sword? Coincidence? I think NOT! This PROVES yet another Halo 3 connection!

Probably. Smile

Ok, to pull back on topic... I just decided to hit the site with Firefox, and the whole background (of the Flash picture) is red. It looks much like when you highlight the thing in IE (which turns the background your highlight color, usually a darkish blue), except I'm not highlighting anything, and it's solid red.

I just checked with IE, and it's as white as normal.

I haven't hit it with FF in a long while, but last time I tried, I didn't see this. Anyone have any ideas? Some revealing secret? A bug in the Flash plugin for Firefox?

I just tried in FF, and it's all white (no pun intended) to me. Seems like a really odd bug at your end. ^^;

Wow... that was embarrasing... I was viewing the image in firefox and then tried to close the tab by clicking on one of the tabs in the image... Embarassed

I've been using Firefox all along and seen nothing different. I am also guessing you have a prob at your end.

Rabbits...Hares...Lepus

Not sure of the significance; but I did more searching on rabbits. The Latin name is Lepus or some form. Any way there is a constellation named Lepus. It is under Orion.

Arab cultures used to consider the 4 brightest stars in the constellation to be 4 camels drinking from the Eridanus river. Isn't there a system in the Halo novels called Eridanus? I thought there was some war or rebellion there...Before or during the books time frame.

Rabbits belong to the family Leporidae in the order Lagomorpha. There are several genus in Leporidae - check the Wikipedia article for more detailed information.

Anyway, there were several rebel insurrections in the Eridanus sytem in the Halo timeline. From the HBO story timeline:

HBO Timeline wrote:
2494 First rebel insurrection in Eridanus system.

2496 The Eridanus insurrection is defeated by UNSC forces.

2513 Second rebel insurrection in Eridanus system, led by Colonel Robert Watts, is suppressed by the UNSC in operation TREBUCHET. Watts is driven into the local asteroid belt.

2525
Sep 12 The Spartans first "official" mission, to infiltrate the rebel base on Eridanus to capture the rebel leader, Colonel Robert Watts, is successful.

I got the same red background once about a week ago. Also with firefox. Haven't been able to reproduce it though.

In the bungie update referenced some pages back, Frankie said that the rabbits looked more like hares to him. Lepus is latin for hare. And notice how the constellation is drawn connecting 8 stars. 8 apples?

Why not just post it here? There are people (including myself) who do not have IM (and which IM service do you mean? AIM, MSNm, YIM?). The spoiler tags are available for a reason; to post messages that may be spoilery to others while giving them an opportunity to skip past it without inadvertantly glancing at said message.

Plus I think your use of Caps. was a little excessive for what you were saying. It doesn't really sound all that exciting.

Edited for spelling

ok....sooo...here's the scoop i got. please keep in mind this info was given to me by someone who had no reason to tell me. i didn't ask this person what origenxbox360 was, but rather if they knew anything about "a website with a tree and a bunny"...which opened the floodgates. so heres what they said:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
this person told me that origenxbox360.com is basically going to be a hub for xbox360 game while explaining the origin (wow, didn't see that coming) of how the xbox360 came to be, as well as the original xbox. this person also explained that a conceptual and very cool aspect of origen will have players testing games; how i do not know, but it's this person's words. not mine. this person also explained that it is meant to be like this ultimate 360 site with a cheat code archive, so on and so forth. basically, it's meant to be an IGN-esque xbox360 oriented site. when asked about a possible game or ARG, the person simply replied, "i have no idea what your talking about. if they are planning it, i don't knwo about it".


i'll try and get more info on what exactly he was told. and for the record, i am not being a prick. i ASKED this person if i could post the info. they simply said that it's cool, but to keep this person annonymous. so there u go kiddies. i'm a lil dissapointed, because if the ourcolony guys are behind this, they apperently quite making games. sorry if this dissappoints. i know i was up for a revamped version of ourcolony.....well, theres always the chance my source was missinformed.....
