To quote AdjutantReflex,
State todays date please.


Sufficient contextual data acquired. 871803909 ± 384 hours since event.

Compiling local archives/resources. [Hibernating] until next incident.

Now, by using this hour count, I've run some calculations to try an figure out when the "event" occurred.

This is what I've come up with:

The event could have occurred in 4 different possible years. Those are:

2983625 B.C.

2983622 B.C.

2987636 A.D.

2987639 A.D.

Now, this makes things simple. Due to AR claiming he had made the correct calibrations, we can assume that there is no need to take in to account relativity's effect of time. So, assuming that AR made the calibrations correctly, these values should all be possibilities.

The B.C. values allow for the possibility that AR was a Forerunner A.I. that had survived all this time. The A.D. values support the idea that AR is in fact from the future era and had traveled backwards in time. Though that is not an accepted theory, it is possible, given how vague AR had been.

But now there's still the speculation to be made of what the "event" was. With the B.C. era dates, it could have been his activation, the first interaction between Forerunner and human, or even Creation. For the A.D. era dates, possibilities such as the beginning or end of the Covenant wars come to mind, the spawning of the Flood, or even the re-emergence of the Forerunners, if there were survivors.

However, for both eras, one possibility comes to mind that I cannot ignore. The "event," very likely, was the activation of the Rings.

Make of it what you will.

I've documented my calculated numbers and methods in case I made any errors. Remember, decimal values were rounded up for the four above values.

871803909 ± 384

+ 384, divided by 365: 2388504.9123287671232876712328767

Further divided by 4 (to allocate number of leap years):
597126.22808219178082191780821918

Final value: 2985631.1404109589041095890410959 years



- 384, divided by 365: 2388502.8082191780821917808219178

Further divided by 4 (to allocate number of leap years):
597125.70205479452054794520547925

Final value: 2985628.5102739726027397260273973

Possible years:

Final values + or - 2007. If subtracted, years are in B.C.. If added, years are in A.D..
