Halo Information

XBox Gamertag Id Alas for my lack of funds or skill...

Favorite Halo Moment Allying with the Flood to stop the menace the Halo Array poses, and promptly being betrayed by said xenocidal parasite.

Worst Halo Moment Randomly falling through the games geometry to my death in Crow's Nest, after killing a Phantom on Heroic.

Other stuff No, you CAN'T haz Recon.

Other Information

Movies
* This guy has the right idea!

TV The West Wing, M*A*S*H, Battlestar Galactica (New Series), Boston Legal, and House ,^.MD. I also love the Fullmetal Alchemist series.

Music

Books Mostly science fiction. I have all the Halo novels, now INCLUDING Contact Harvest, which is by far one of the best books I have read...and I read a lot, so I know...

Video Games Well, Halo, obviously. And Gears of War, Command and Conquer 3, and I used to play a bit of Starcraft. And Age of Mythology and Age of Empires III. And...well...that's pretty much it. Definitely loved Ghostbusters, the first movie-to-game i've played to work half-decently! Who're You Gonna Call?

Magazines I laugh with scorn at those who give into the corporate conglomerates
_{sponsored by McDonalds, Disney, Donald Trump and Telecom}

Drinks I drink only the blood of my foes. And Vanilla Coke, which is basically the same thing...

Exalted Obliteration

posted 1 day 3 hours 31 minutes ago

I noticed your comment on the "Babysitter Mistakes" blog, and that got me thinking about something regarding the count of SPARTAN-II numbers. Counting the deaths of Samuel, Sheila, the disappearance of Kurt, Maria's "retirement", Cassandra's WIA, plus the first Red Team's MIA, and now Cal's death. Relating it to the "33 Spartans in action, 25 of 28 at Reach" number that is apparently enshrined to this day, I realized a simple but important problem.

There is no way that there can be 25 of 28 Spartans at Reach out of an original 33 when a total of 9 Spartans are already out of the action. 33-9=24, which would only leave 24 surviving Spartans, and with Grey Team out of circulation, that leaves 21 Spartans at Reach.

The only way for 28 surviving Spartans surviving up to just before Reach's fall is to be accurate is that there are more than 33 active Spartan-IIs'. 28 9=37; 37 Spartans would have to be around in order for this number to valid.

If anything can be concluded from this, 343 Industries has inherited and perpetuated an inconsistency that plagued Spartan-II numbers, even under Bungie's watch. Thinking of the "Spartan Roster" link on the Spartan-II page, it seemed that even from Bungie themselves, the company seen by this wikia as a group of saints, was incapable and unwilling to narrow down the number of Spartan-IIs' alive, dead, or wounded.

This problem has been further escalated thanks to 343 Industries's actions. Hopefully this will be rectified in the future, but that is unlikely. Incompetence from one company can easily be passed to its successor.
