Re: How Tall is MC?

In Response To: Re: How Tall is MC? (Sep7imus)

: Gosh, that was impressive. You Rox0r, or something.
: Not to belabor this too much, but I'm not sure it matters where the two
: points are that it measures. On your picture, if the head point is below
: the top of the head, then that just means that C includes the MC's lower
: half plus some of the other MC's head. That value, plus the value of B or
: D equals the MC's height, no matter what, right?

: In other words A is not necessarily = to C. But your other equations (which
: do not depend on that one) are still valid.

Yah, I guess you're right, now that I think about it. Add another distance, E, for the range from D to the top of the second guy's head (since D is now somewhere in the middle of his face). A + E = C, and A + B + C + D + E = 2*MC... and B + C + D = 3.2, and C = 1, so bottom to top is 4.2 again, leaving the MC at 2.1 m.

This doesn't jibe with what Bungie has said, but it's pretty consistent (I measured it myself, and came out with the same numbers you did).

: -Sep7imus (I just really want to have figured something in Halo!)

lol - I guess you get this one.
