I think some reverse-psychology may be in order...

Oh, yeah. Nice update, OP. That'd be AWESOME! Bungie should make a crazy act of cryptography that will keep us occupied until the veil is lifted on the new game! :)

I say we all need to ask:

"When exactly is Soon(TM)?"

And we should get Sken to do it with his army of alts.

Nope. Bastard just isnt a swear word according to b.net (neither is jackass, you jackass!)

Hmm..

OP: We should rig the mailsack
Urk: No, this isn't what the mailsack is about, if you want to do it this way we can just stop the mailsack
Deej: Bastards
OP: Oh in that case lets still do it

And they wonder why we can never have nice things

Halo: Tactical

I'm either a fool or an inteligent man, depending on how sleepy or angry I am.

I originaly made an account on 07.27.2007 but I wanted to link my GT and made this account. Don't forget your passwords!

I think, out of all the possible questions, that asking when the darkness will end is not that great of one. (Due to the spoiling of the surprise and that there might be a range of dates it could happen due to the game still being developed.) Regrettably, I do not recall the question I was going to propose.

I know this is off topic, but didn't see it worth starting a thread.

I find amazing that you can call someone a jackass, but if you put the butt and hole together you get this -blam!-.

OT: I think that we should still do it. Whats the worst they can do*, keep us dark till they get ready to tell us something good.

Regrettably, I do not recall the question I was going to propose.

I am willing to change the question - in fact I thought this thread would be more of a debate on what to ask rather than what would happened if we asked. I left deej a "what if" question in the mail sack. Just so we know what would happen if we poked the bear without actually poking it.

It's not worth it to lose the mail sack, but at the same time I think the entire community was crushed when we heard that bungie wasn't going to be at the VGA's

If we're dark any longer maybe we should rig the sack.

New question - When would you resort to crazy measures, like rigging the sack, to end the darkness.

Me- Sooner tm

How about you give us the date in some crazy geomancy puzzle this week? Those symbols still haunt my dreams. I promise we won't call a random phone number this time - right guys. come on deej.


You never really cracked that case, Bungie Community. I am disappoint.

You told us that there wasn't anything else to crack and that the goal for Bungie Day was to figure out that they were Geomantic Symbols >_>

Posted by: DeeJ
Please stop inventing random telephone numbers to call. You are harassing total strangers. You are also barking up the wrong tree. The fact that you tracked these symbols to their origin is all you are meant to know about them.

For now...

Hylebos, Sounds/looks like it is time for a new thread.

So DeeJ, was there suppsoed to be an additional meaning to thoes symbols? And if so, are you/bungie still waiting for us to figure them out?

Well, we really don't know a ton more about Destiny than we did back then that would help us with regards to the meaning of the Geomantic Symbols. Off the top of my head, the biggest discoveries since that time was Puerto Princesca and the Concept Art leak.

Geomancy was invented in Africa and traveled to Europe during the Medieval Ages, so it seems to have little relevance to Puerto Princesca. While the concept art that was revealed and the story blurb gave us a great idea of Destiny's Premise, it's not like we saw any references of Geomantic figures seeded into the artwork or the story blurb.

It's something I've thought about investigating, but the evidence that would help us gain greater meaning just isn't there. It's sorta a divination thing, all those symbols together are open to a variety of interpretations, and perhaps only by looking retroactively back once we know more about Destiny might we be able to make sense of them.

Perhaps I'll relook up the meaning of the figures later and see if they were perhaps foreshadowing / hinting towards The Traveler or something. I doubt we'd get anything as major as a release date though, it's definitely going to be one of those things we look back on and go "Oh yeah of course!" like the ODST picture of the Traveler.

That last post made me feel so smart. Really. It makes me want to start looking for something, but I really don't have time to waste.

I wonder if DeeJ will respond to my question about if we are supposed to be figuring out something still?

Is it just me or was there a hint of anger/frustration in Urk's post?

I'm pretty sure that as much as we want the darkness to lift, Bungie staffers probably want it even more.

It must be so frustrating working day in and day out for years on something that you cannot speak about or share with beyond a handful of people.

Hopefully, it's all worth it Soon(TM).

Blame Stosh..Uh thanks..

OK edited post wrong area. Humm 2+2=4 so..by that number i shall say its 99.99% not possible to rig it. Counting backwards and forwards.

But there is a 11.11% it might happen if you some how opened a Chinese restaurant in bungie's name.
