Five years older and wiser
The fires are burning, I'm fire, never tire
Slay warriors in the forests, and on hire

After inputting that symbol as the 8th symbol I got Puer:

Latin for "the Boy". The figure is a representation of a sword or erect -blam!- and refers to male energies, primarily aggression and passion, but also war and male -blam!-ity. It is bad in most cases, but good in situations where boys (in Antiquity and Medieval society) excelled: love and war. Astrologically it is associated with Aries and Mars. All elements are active except Water, the element of emotion; its inner element is air, but due to it being ruled by Mars, its outer element is fire. Its planetary intelligence is Graphiel and its spirit is Bartzabel; it is associated with the deities Mavors and Athena, and the angels Samael and Malchidael. It is associated with the head.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

This just in, the game is now about role playing of this boy who has a destiny to save the universe.

That seems too complicated for me to understand.


If you want a simple explanation of the symbols themselves, you check out my forum post here.

Using "Caput Draconis" as the 8th symbol (as Apoc did) yields "Puer" as the "judge" symbol.

No, Bungie is more original that that.

I hope.

You know, that is almost the same plot as Halo except Master Chief was old and the plot was linear.

Meh, I've lost gusto. I blame le wine.

I still think it will eventually end up as an IP address.

But for now, DeeJ has said that all we need to know is that these symbols are Geomantric. We've done that, so I think we should wait and see what the 'one of seven' golden ticket holders uncover during their tours.

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

Posted this in another thread.

Wait a second, if you look at the destiny logo it looks kinda like this symbol http://puu.sh/GFMB. If you look at the code in the article http://www.bungie.net/images/News/Inline12/BungieDay2012/part icles.png that symbol doesn't appear. It could be the missing symbol.

Caput Draconis

Latin for "the Head of the Dragon". The figure resembles the astrological symbol the north node of the Moon. It is neutral figure (good with good, evil with evil) but fortunate with starting or beginning new things. It is favourable for beginnings and profit, and otherwise favourable with other favourable figures, and unfavourable with unfavourable ones. It is associated with the benefic planets Jupiter and Venus, and assigned to the zodiac sign of Sagittarius; its outer element is fire due to its association with Sagittarius while its inner element is earth. Its planetary intelligences are Iophiel and Hagiel and its spirits are Hismael and Kedemel; it is associated with the deities Venus, Iove, and Vulcanus, and the angels Sachiel, Anael, and Zuriel. It is associated with the right arm.

Destiny/ Brave New world

My friend Elusive Eagle and I were talking on MSN and he said:

have you looked at the binary aspect?
I'm curious how you did the binary aspect
each figure is 4 bits
binary -> decimal: 15 6 5 3 2 1 9
each level of a symbol is either 1 or 2 dots
1 mod 2 = 1
2mod 2 = 0
for the first 7 chars you get the following:

1111 0110 0101 0011 0010 0001 1001
which in decimal form is 15 6 5 3 2 1 9
or hexadecimal is F 6 5 3 2 1 9
your eighth symbol is: 1110 or 14 or E

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bd/Geomantic_ figures.svg

Check the 14th symbol.


Again not really how it was intended to operate but interesting.

This thread is so deep man.

I think we are trying to look at this and see beyond what is there, to the point we call random phone numbers and ask about destiny.

Everything here so far is reasonable dealing in its intended use and then aproching it by binary means seems good to me

was that with the 8th used as the 4th daughter or the 1st mother.

You know about the information/communication graph? You take all the common parts of a sentence and put them in order of greatest to least. If the line goes down at about 45 degree angle, information is present.

That was like a pony riding a dog, smoking a cigar walking into a bar on mars while the sun explodes when it comes to randomness of posts.

Also, if deej says we are done for "now" when is "later"

  • 07.07.2012 5:05 PM PDT

Five years older and wiser
The fires are burning, I'm fire, never tire
Slay warriors in the forests, and on hire

Here is how I did it.
So each symbol have 4 levels/sections. To generate a new symbol what you do is you take a level from two symbols paired with each other, if the dots on their levels combined are odd the new symbols level will be 1, if they are even then it has 2 dots. You do all 4 sections and then you have your new symbol, you then repeat this until you have one left.

For example:

X-X + -X- ODD
-X- + X-X ODD
X-X + X-X EQUAL
-X- + -X- EQUAL

Would equal

-X- ODD
-X- ODD
X-X EQUAL
X-X EQUAL

No. If you were to post a whole bunch of random words in no order then if it was graphed on a line graph then you will get a flat line. No information. And if the riddle acted like this then there would be no information.

Is there any chance you could make this run as a true mother to daughter line? as it cycles

I'm going to post a version I'm working on now later that lets you pick the symbols and generates the -blam!- for you.

very nice, like i said above any chance you can get the randomizer to run true mother to daughter lines
