Subject: Well this is peculiar.......................

The world is not beautiful: And that, in a way, lends it a sort of beauty.

~Kino's Journey

We all know Bungie loves the number seven, but in one of the new wallpapers there is 9 swords, not seven.

I'm wondering if this is some kind of obscure hint about Destiny.

Usually something like that means there's about to be a major shift in tradition....Though I'm probably reading too much into it. It could signify the birth of Bungie's next legacy....not through games but as an organization....

  • 07.09.2012 2:47 AM PDT

I doubt it's a hint or anything like that...

Quote from Confucius

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

How is this peculiar do you expect Bungie to put 7's in everything. Oh Bungie is 6 letters that's strange

The swoosh counts.

Bungie has a lot of things that aren't related to the number 7.

Seven swords would have looked funny with that spacing.


Not *everything* is a conspiracy.

I think for once, let's not assume it's some sort of conspiracy... Maybe Bungie wish to display some cool art?

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Plus the swoosh for the "i".

Because it looks good.

Good lord, some of you conspiracy people put the ancient alien's guy to shame with coming up with assumptions.

Indeed. I haven't had XBL for a long time, but I still come on her everyday.

Oh, really?

- 9 swords
- EST. 1991
- 1 + 9 + 9 + 1 = 20
- 20 - 9 = 11
- 4 fingers on the fist, because the thumb is not classified as a finger
- 11 - 4 = 7

Case closed.

Maybe the designer thought a nonagon-based frame looked better than a septagon one.

I broke one of the cords for my X11s because I couldn't get past the final American course in Doritos Crash Course.

Maybe there were 9 people working for Bungie when the logo was made. It probably represents something.
