Approximately 3 billion people are reported to be sick on that day. That includes 3 million teachers, 6 million Microsoft employees, and 2 billion students.

Even doctors where short handed as they where out of work on this strange day in human history. November 9th 2004 was forever remembered as the "Worlds Largest Sick Day" this unkown disease seemed to have no cure, The alleged "sick" showed no symptoms of illness or fever, but they claimed it. This disease was renowned as "The flood" and still amazes Scientists today. However it only seemed to last a day or two, in which then the disease would go back to work, but would not stop discussing something by the name of "Halo". Could it be that they where invaded by a simbient lifeform and are now trying to warn us of a cruel fate?

Well i think my goal now is to make that a flash animation. Also for another Halo advertisment made by one of my co-workers at my website check out this

http://www.blackartstudios.geahost.com/halo/pics/kevcomic.htm

It was made before halo announced the nov 9th release date, and thought it would be a good idea if halo was released around halloween.

Anyone whos good at flash wanna take me up on the offer? rather than me use my non-l33t skillz of flash to make it :P

Here's a comercial script, I though of...

*shows man in Buisness suit sitting on a couch with spring noises sounding in the background*
"Feeling bright and healthy? Have the urge to go outside and play with you friends? Feel the need to work on you Tan?"

"Well on November 9th..." *record screeching and noises go silent* "You won't be..."

"Infact you'll be too sick to even go to work" *Shows flash of a guy in boxers laughing and playing Xbox*

"You'll be stuck inside, drinking cough syrup all day"*Shows flash of guy in boxer with a grabbing a beer*

"But don't worry you won't be the only one..." *Shows a 4 screen split sceeen of his boss in his office playing Xbox in one screen. His kids in school playing Xbox in the other. His wife getting her hair done while playing Xbox. Finally it shows his dog in his doghouse with "Keyes" inscribed in it playing Xbox*

*flashes back to man in a buisness suit now playing Xbox* "Who knew being sick could be so much fun"

*Halo music creeps in followed by the logo and David Scully's voice(Sarge)* "Halo 2, coming to you November 9th..."

*flashes to Sarge with a Grunt in a headlock while his other hand pointing at the screen* "Are YOU ready to be sick!?"


lol Just thought I'd put something together... tell me what ya think


Shifty

Ha good 'un. But here is a banned ad.
Are you sick of wars between people with crappy presidents of countries gettin angry at eachother over stupid things such as big sentences with no commas or full stops that just keep going like this one.
Well then Grab an Xbox, pawn off your PS2 and Gamecube to buy one and get HALO 2. Improve your reflexes playing halo while you train for an actual invasion of earth because of aliens that are gettin angry at us over stupid things such as big sentences with no commas or full stops that just keep going like this one.

eh why it is banned? Don't ask me, why are nunchaku banned?

don't you mean 300 million teachers, 600 million M. employees and 2 billion students, that alot closer to 3 billion than your approximation. Sorry for being the annoying idiot, but he was just too off to let it slide this time. But yah, the traffic form like Nov. 10 to Nov. 11, 2006, will probably be awsome (though I won't know, cuz I'll be one of the ones playing halo 2, instead of driving), LOL.

Yeah, or you could get an xbox and monitor in your car, and play halo while you drive, but you wouldnt have to worry bout crashing into another car, becasue no one would be driving :P Just find a large stretch of freeway and drive up and down it :P
