He watches every Hodgetwin video they put up...on ALL their channels. He calls them the Hodge Triplets, and considers himself the 3rd triplet. He's started talking and acting like them now. Every other line out of his mouth "Thaaas some BULLLLLL**** maaayne" or "Gotta make dem gainzzzz". He calls his biceps "gains". When he eats post-workout, he talks to his biceps, "Don't worry gains, I'm feeding you. Daddys gonna feed you, gainz *kisses biceps*".

You're darn right, Rinkshobo! Got any ideas what it may hold?

Uberdawg, those are some deep finds, and praise is due to you.
Makes you think, don't it?

I liked the concept, you might want to add more detail about certain things such as:

"That hammer Tartarus touted was powerful enough to not only send him flying across the chamber with one good hit, but it was also emitting a shield that protected the Brute from harm."

Instead:

"The mammoth warhammer that Tartarus touted boasted enough power to send the Arbiter's lifeless body flying across the chamber with a single blow, and the blue glow that radiated from its mostrous head encased the Brute in a shield that protected him from all but the most potent weaponry."

Chapter 19 Delayed? That ain't right. Fuelrod cannon made out of card-board? Cool, but i've already out-classed you, i've made an Assualt rifle out of legos.

"Isnt Jan still trapped in a hospital full of the flood. With nothing more then a handgun. I dont think Sgt Jhonson Is in any condition to save her, what with his arm in the condition its in. Also there has been discussion of Jan being able to fit into mark IV armor. Since she had no real modifications like the cheif. Oh and maybe Gravemind just respawned? "

Good questions, and these related to my earlier post that people ignored probably because they didn't want to think; just post.

This is where Dr. Halsey and Kelly come in, I think. They could come down and save her, but the Marines are on the roof, too. Maybe he did... I assume that's what those things do, over time.



How is Dr.Halsey going to save Jan if she doesnt even know who or where she is?

Nice, but I've made some Mjolnir armour out of some plastic bottles, leather pants, a flashlight and a pair of sunglasses. Oh, and I used some D batteries!

This just screams "OFF TOPIC"
Though it was a good list of items.
ANYWAYS, you're all crazy, and need a crazy bucket to vent in.

Thanks. And most certainly it does. I'm sure we could dig up more if we looked through it more often.

She may not. It was a wild conjecture. It is possible, though, that Dr. Halsey does indeed know where Jan is and who Jan is. Think about it. Jan is the offspring of two Spartan 1s, Dr. Halsey specializes in the Spartan program, right? Plus, Jan is near ONI's head place, and wouldn't that be the first place Dr. Halsey would go? I don't know, I'm probably wrong, but we'll soon find out.

Well, I guess this'll teach me to go on vacation ever again.

Eight pages in the last two weeks? Over two hundred posts? There goes my pride of having a thread that wasn't filled with useless posts for the most part.

Geez guys, so much for letting the thread die huh?

Anyways, thanks to everyone that tried their best to end the flame war, and an extra special "tsk tsk" to those that kept it going. Just because there's a sense of anonymity in forums like these, it doesn't mean we should practise being jackass's.

A special thanks to Konoka_chan for helping me get a few messages to you guys while I was fishing in lakes and getting lost in the wilderness for the past two weeks.

There's a couple things I'll clarify for everyone as well.

First, the idea that this thread needs to be kept bumped. Obviously the idiotic flame war that sprung forth during my absense should be proof enough that this is a terribly bad idea. I hardly think that keeping my post count up matters in the least. I could sit here and create 10 accounts if I wanted to and just have a conversation going between them if I wanted to do that. Granted that's pretty sad, but if I really cared that much about posts it would certainly be an option.

Secondly would be the supposed death of my fanbase....Well that's pretty redundant too. Over half the people that initially started to read this story I now communicate with through PM's, simply because its easier that way, and they don't have to stick around the thread waiting for a chapter. Don't get me wrong I really appreciate everyone that posts useful stuff in the thread, so don't go thinking I secretly hate you or something.

If anything I'd say the popularity of this fanfic is at an all-time high, even with my giant breaks inbetween chapters.

I have a paid account at fanfiction.net, which gives me a nice little hit counter for how many people click and read my story.

Chapter 18 had 1300 hits from unique isp's, not bad huh?

Lastly, I'll post Chapter 19 sometime tomorrow. As it is right now I'm supremely exhausted and I work in only three hours. I need some form of rest, and formatting a chapter is not likely to be something that fits into that category.

Obviously saying, "Let the thread die" carries about as much sway as a feather, so I'll give up and just keep my mouth shut.

Great to hear, I've been checking this thread pretty much every day for the last week hoping the chapter would be up but to no avail. By the way, do you know why they stickyed Sir_Brilliant's story, is it because of the amount of posts or what?


IMPORTANT EDIT FOR CLARK: Actually it was very close to around 4600 so I don't know why they'd choose that number over say 100 pages or something but your guess is as good as mine.

Yes atlast we have a date for the chapter.Now on the topic of the forerunners, first of all how the hell did they survive the first activation of halo(s) let alone the flood? And how could 1 human know that he/she is a forerunner? I'm very confused, but I'm sure it'll all be cleared up pretty soon.

the forunner made the halos to destroy the flood if it were to get out to keep it from making it to their galaxy. dont believe it when some one says it destroys all life in the universe, its only in the milkyway galaxy. and i dont know your second question.

More than likely. Does this mean all fanfics will be stickied when they reach the 4500 mark? Absolutely not.

So please, I would really prefer there not to be a sudden influx of posts again.

I came back about 12 hours ago actually.

I'll be posting Chapter 19 in a few hours, then hopefully later tonight I can get the chance to send some PM's. The extension on my vacation made me fall desperately far behind on a lot of things, so I'm trying to play catch-up right now.

Ever try crunching a week's worth of work into 24 hours? Yeah, its not fun, nor is it easy.
