who are "the guardians?" i was playing a LAN game two days ago, i was shot dead with a pistol, i meleed with my rocket launcher just as a i died, and my roommate died too somehow. it said he was killed by "the guardians" though nobody had that name. and then yesterday a kid down the hall said he saw the guardian in a LAN game who was a grey master chief. anybody ever seen anything like this or heard of "the guardians?"

its when both opposin players die exactly at the same time, so no score is given. quote someone from the forums, "its your xbox's way of sayin wtf?"

It happens when you melee someone as you are dying and it kills them. The game doesn't want to award a point to a dead person so the guardians step in. There is no physical form for them, simply a word that is put there instead of saying 'you were killed by a dead person' for some reason however, the game still awards the points if you die and an explosion you caused kills someone.
