Re: could soon evolve or consume all?

In Response To: Re: could soon evolve or consume all? (Ciarán)

: Just to follow up, here's the earliest I could find where "consume
: all" is used in a post. Why did the Story Page transcript end up as
: "could soon evolve"? Some "official" scripts could
: solve this kind of problem, though it does reduce the fun somewhat.
: Perhaps if Marty (or whoever) could throw their eye over the level
: transcripts on HSP just to make sure that what's there is correct, then
: that may suffice. Also, if anything is missing, then they could just state
: that there's more to find, and we can go look.

: On a related note, Skeletor has this interpretation of one passage:
: "Well naturally The Flood is simply too dangerous to release, and
: thus sterilization protocols may again need to be enacted."

: This contrasts with the HSP transcript: "While naturally the Flood is
: simply too dangerous to release, my mass sterilization protocols may have
: been in need of being activated."

: The phrase "may have been in need" jars with me, while "may
: again need" makes more sense to me. Another trip to the Library may
: be needed :-)

: Ciarán.

The majority of the HSP transcripts were put together by Ape Man, early last year. I'm SURE there are mistakes in them (you've already found some). I find it extremely unlikely, however, that Bungie (or Marty, unofficially) would take the time/trouble to proofread what we have up, or to send us 'official' copies; any changes would need to come from the fanbase. (Marty has shown himself willing to correct specific examples - so if you find something you're suspicious of, by all means, send it along. The Marty Army's Q & A section is a good option for this.)

We're only as good as the work we put in. :(
