In Response To: Decoding Installation Identifications (GLuebben) : ** Wild speculation and I apologize if this has been brought up, previously : ** : A thread posted, tonight, by Rachda : (http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/halo.forum.pl?read=706856) caused me : to ponder Astro the Space Duck's glyph documentation : (http://halosm.bungie.org/story/forerunner/jsymbols.html). The glyph : indicated by Rachda possibly indicates the location of the Ark, or : Installation 0, 00 or 0,0. That glyph's 'observer circle' appears in : quadrant I. If that glyph is then rotated through the remaining 270 : degrees of the circle, the 'observer circle' appears in each remaining : quadrant. This is also true of the glyph that appears to be, for lack of a : better term, a lock. : These glyphs appear in blue and red in Halo, suggesting 'benign' and : 'warning' or 'danger' to me. I was never quite able to put that red glyph : into words, until tonight. Rachda's posts helped me apply the word 'lock' : to that glyph. : I wrote up the document, below, tonight. Unfortunately two of the glyph : images freaked out. This is actually pretty cool - seemed a shame to let it be ruined by your freaked-out glyphs... so I recreated it. http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/CovenantForerunnerGlyphs.pdf Nice work!
