My site (URL not provided, due to possibility that it might be considered advertising and thus spam) has a gaming section, and I've decided to include Halo as one of the guides. What I will be including with the guide:

1. Full Strategy Guide: If you want to help me write this, please PM me.

2. Downloads: Please link me to any lists of mods, tools, maps, etc... (PM them up to me or post back with them)

3. Dev Turtorials: If you want to help me write guides on mapping, modding, etc... PM me or reply.

4. Clan Roster: This will be PHP-powered, but I have almost no PHP experience so someone will have to help me with it. A ladder system would also be great. PM me or reply if you wish to apply.

Thanks!

Cause i'm nice and caring, ill ignore the fact that you bumped this...
Im interested, but this should include not only every single fact about halo, but every single fact about halo-based Halo CE stuff. (ignoring the non-halo stuff) and it should be in a nice 500+ page prinatable PDF file : )
Im willing to help compile this.

I like the sound of that :D

But let's keep it simple. Setting up the server. what's your MSN? I'll be the tester, as I have an internet connection and a powerful computer

Lol G9, I think it would be a good idea to give Bacon a bit of a holiday right now. He's working like a dog getting Trep. ready for Christmas, as well as making a sort of AI (project deja), so don't work him too hard haha.

In giving a little advice, including insightful things about the campaign enemies' AI would be very cool. The following is an example: "The Covenant have a couple 'modes' of mindset; they start out lollygagging around, wasting time--you can sneak up and melee them at this point. The second is when they spot you, but the game doesn't allow them to shoot yet because you are too far. At this point, they are only half-sensitive about you; they remember where they saw you and will run from side to side to avoid any shots you take, but they do not try to understand the fact that you may move from that point and circle around to sneak up on them. You will find them still looking at where you were, running back and forth. The third sense of their surroundings is obvious--they know where you are, and they know what they want to do with you."

P.S. The Halo Bible is a sweet name lol

Awesome. And compiling stuff for the HALO bible will be very much similar to compiling information for the real bible... scattered here and there. Thanks, I'll add that as an AI guide.

A grenade a day keeps the Covenant away
Use Flood-B-Gone daily to keep your rotting corpse dead...

G9, where do you plan to gather this "scattering of information"? Do you think Bungie will allow a continual thread to just go on and on as people add their two cents? If they don't, you'll have to find another place to construct your Bible.

I'm not reading you. I don't see how Bungie would disagree.

LMAO
You think you're going to do this on a forum?
You need a base-of-operations site.

Ah, that's what you mean. I do have a "base-of-operations site", so to speak, but how would I use it? It's a .com by the way.

No, i mean for the guide. I see that you have a site with a real domain name, but thats different, we need a new domain. Yahoo! Domains has forwarding for $2.99 a year! Thats a good deal! Someday, if they still have that deal, ill be getting GruntMaps.com (so dont take it from me!)
Im thinking we need a new domain, something around the lines of HaloBible.com, hmm.. ill see if thats available

EDIT: halobible.com is available, which amazes me.

Oh, and your site is down : P

So are we going with Bacon's idea, or hosting it on your site? Cuz I'd like to help out a bit with this; I mean if you're going to have circa 500 pages of stuff you're going to need all the help you can get! I think this'll be really cool G9 : )

It could be both. The Halobible.com, and also... "The Halo Bible, featured on G9 Core (my site)".
