all i know right now is that the people over on the forums dont grasp the fact that we have no knowledge of the rings, or reach, or any of that at this point in time, that happens in 2552(or whenever). i mean, we need to get back to the basics and ask it simple questions like "who sent you", "what are you waiting for exactly", "who do you take orders from", etc. not all of this "is the covenant a threat" bs. all we know is that around 500 years from now the covenant will attempt to take control of the ark which was placed here on, earth by the forerunners, and try to manually activate the array to facilitate its "holy function" and all that junk. but at the same time, when we converse with this AI, we arent supposed to know that yet, so we need to figure out what its purpose is for contacting the "guardians of the ark (us)" here on earth.

That's kinda counterintuitive, though, when its sole method of communication with us is on a forum dedicated to discussing Halo 3. Talk about breaking the fourth wall... Razz

Also, I recall someone on B.net hitting upon an interesting notion: AR seems to respond more to statements than to direct questions. Do you think we should alter our approach? We should alter our approach.

 		one intresting point that was put forward on the B.net fora and digg that I haven't seen here yet ( nor found with the search ) is the fact that
Adjudant Reflex is a part of Compound Intellegence and that this gives us ARC Intellegence.

What is Adjudant Reflex is the original ARC AI and is now trying to gather information about life on earth at this time to maybe even create a new ARC for a "new start" somewhere else? This would imply that earth would get destroyed eventually ( why else would they create a new ARC? ) ...

I mean, if this ARCI is really more then 100 000 years old, it would consider 552 years ( the time untill the flood reaches the earth ) a reasonably small amount of time, 0.5% of its lifespan is short in Computer-terms I think, and it could be possible that it is using the 'last' time left to do another startup before the 'reset' sets in.

Or maybe we've been looking at it the wrong way completely from the beginning and earth is not the place where the ARC is hidden, it IS the ARC... and what we saw in the trailer is something like the jetpropulsion system of said ARC? ( if this is a crime against HALO-lore, please correct me! )

We will be ready.



You're wrong. This time, no one will be ready.

Sounds rather ominous. If this is pointed at ARG-ers, quite foreboding really. Are we to expect nothing at all? Could Arkie mean that we're making a molehill out of an anthill?


I didn't mean to piss him off, but I don't think he knows this group of people he's dealing with here.

That was you? Smile

Hmm, I have a feeling this ARG is going to have a lot of various forum groups working on it out there. It might be hard to collaborate when we need to.

I know I will be (at least) at Unfiction and the new HBO ARG forum (created specifically for this ARG), because there seems to be more, uh, intelligent users among these two.

It's a shame the AI is only using the bungie.net forums for now. Confused

Just wondering, how many Unfiction Beekeepers are at args.bungie.org as well?

(PS - I'm Darkendes over there)

 		The server cam was replaced by the secret cam.

They are usually up but not usually on the secret cam unless things are going down.

It's crunch time according the the Weekly updates on Fridays. Maybe that explains it. Maybe not though.

 		As I sit here killing time, I wonder how far into this ARG we'll be before someone turns in the main character to the "bad guys" completely throwing the ARG makers for a loop. Because that was great.

 		Not hating, just reminiscing. I loved hearing after the fact that none of the ILB writers expected anyone to actually turn the Sleeping Princess in. The human factor is really what made that entire experience great.
