In Response To: egg hunt comedy... CHAT LOG HERE! (Miguel Chavez)
: So I noticed that Deimos was pretty quick figuring out the long hex code
: clue, so I thought I'd lurk on subnova.hl and watch these guys in 'action'
: so to speak... it was interesting, if not funny at times, watching them
: try to piece it all together. They were also trying to do FB's damnation
: trick of using an overshield to get to the bottom that map. :)
: Herewith the chat, cleaned up a bit to make it easier to follow. Notice that
: Cunbelin kept dancing around the solution about an hour before they
: actually thought to try it. Those GEEKS! :)

: Schooly D: no, the black circle
: Deimos (The B: ooooo
: Deimos (The B: lets climb out
: Magus Caves I: what does a black circle have to do with anything in halo?
: Schooly D: it doesn't
: Schooly D: but if I recall my folklore, a black spot means death
: Magus Caves I: so then why is it in the halo forum if it dosent relate to
: the game?
: Deimos (The B: damn
: 2 and 2 make : next jump, fire again
: Magus Caves I: unless you have to die to find it.....

: Schooly D: sorry, 2n2. Couldn't resist.

: *** Deimos (The Blue Bar!) wonders what the hell this huge dot is supposed
: to tell us

: and an off the shelf component based system
: 2 and 2 make : ok, what's something that FB hasn't reached the top or bottom
: of?
: 2 and 2 make : because I will dedicate the rest of my life getting to that
: spot
: Deimos (The B: i think somewhere in the library
: vector40: Um... other side of Halo?
: 2 and 2 make : and then I will write "SUCK IT FROGBLAST" with the
: assault

: Schooly D: oh
: vector40: Hahaha
: 2 and 2 make : damn, almost did it
: vector40: Any number of players, for that matter.
: Cunbelin: damn I so want Halo online
: Cunbelin: I think I'd rather have Halo online than Halo 2 right now
: 2 and 2 make : no, it's possible to get to the bottom of damnation
: Cunbelin: MA is good, but damn it would be so much better to be able to
: mock perfect strangers
: 2 and 2 make : care to guess who did it?
: vector40: A... dot? Uh god Miguel's trying my humanity.
: vector40: How do you get to the bottom?
: Schooly D: very carefully
: 2 and 2 make : you have to bring the overshield down with you and intercept
: it mid-air
: Cunbelin: has anyone made it to the bottom of the shaft single player ?
: 2 and 2 make : in AotCR?
: Deimos (The B: uhhh
: Cunbelin: no the shaft in SC, but with only a single player

: 2 and 2 make : of course, nobody has found the REAL easter egg yet
: vector40: It's those damned Turkish.
: Cunbelin: getting close to elites so they don't run has become so
: ingrained
: in my gameplay style I didn't even realize they actually ran
: Schooly D: why doesn't Miguel just say what it is?
: 2 and 2 make : hook up a keyboard to the xbox, type control-F12,

: Schooly D: And someone tell me how the b.org glyph puzzle was solved
: Deimos (The B: i also tried .blam for the hell of it
: Cunbelin: heh ok one was the core thing, but what was the other one ?
: vector40: And "The Blue Bar" is one character too many.
: vector40: The glyph puzzle was solved by insanity.
: ferrex: an earlier countdown on the Codex, the experience that taught
: me how tantilizing countdowns are
: Cunbelin: heh
: ferrex: if you put a countdown on your website, people will
: eventually notice, and go insane
: Cunbelin: the core thing was truly inspired
: Deimos (The B: aye
: ferrex: that was a hoot
: Schooly D: core?
: ferrex: I hope I can do it again someday

: Cunbelin: and you can't help but cackle

: Cunbelin: though my true love in that game is the bowman now
: Cunbelin: the only problem is that the damn explosion slow the game to
