The Director

The Unidentified Flying Object that crashed in New Mexico was later revealed as a surveillance balloon. The original purpose of the balloon was monitor Russia's Nuclear Weapons tests. Our relationship with Russia was very flaky at the time, so the government claimed that this balloon was a weather balloon. At the time, paranoia was the norm, and when people asked why the government was so strictly securing the area of the crash the government pretty much said, "cuz we can". This led to a massive craze that an alien craft had crashed in Roswell and that the government had covered it up. This was exacerbated by the locals who noticed that tourism had gone way up and started fabricating evidence to further "prove" that the surveillance balloon was actually an alien craft. It was even FURTHER exacerbated by our government, who flat out refused to provide any proof on the matter until the 1990's. In reality, we simply didn't want to admit that we were spying on Russia. Because it was a rebel. Ah, fun. Anyways, the quasar that you're talking about (the one that is so big it shouldn't exist) exists probably because of our oversimplification of our mathematical description of the universe. We just need to correct it and move on, really. Whenever something breaks the laws of physics, all it is doing is proving us incorrect. All we have to do is rewrite the law until it is correct and see how well it holds up in the future.

Of course it can. Now it is. You are welcome.

That's... I... But... What?

Yeah, just figured that out. I didn't think mine were effected, but it appears that they are (I haven't played Reach in 3 weeks and just now played a game and it didn't show up). As Self Destruct said, we're a community forum so no one here works at 343i. I've been doing some digging for you though, and it looks like it's a bug related to the update that killed the mobile waypoint apps. The crappy thing about these bugs is that we've gotta wait for them to figure out where in the code the bug is and to build a patch for it.

Holy cow, I've never seen anything like that before. I went on your profile and pulled up your gamertag in Waypoint and it shows your challenges and your commendations, but none of your actual stats. Link below: https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/players/lady%20memnoch/haloreach#!/Competitive Alright, so from my limited expertise in these matters I think that I might be able to help. Got a couple of questions. 1. Have you recently changed your gamertag? 2. When was the last time you played Reach? 3. Do you have an active X-Box Live Gold subscription? 4. Have you boosted or done anything against the code of conduct that you may have been reported for (don't worry, I'm not a cop or anything lol)? 5. Were you playing Halo Reach on your own X-Box or someone else's? 6. You mentioned another account. Are you having the same issue with that account as well? 7. What type of NAT do you have?

Logic? No. Halo Combat Evolved came out in 2001 Halo 2 came out in 2004 Halo 3 came out in 2007 Halo Reach came out in 2010 Halo 4 came out in 2012 And Halo 5 is slated to come out in 2015 If you follow the pattern (with the exception of Halo Reach [made by Bungie] and Halo 4 [made by 343i] primary Halo games usually come out every three years. So Halo 6 will probably come out in 2018. There's no way it's going to be released in 2016. If they DID release in it 2016 then that would mean that the game would be released incomplete and Halo would die.

Well they didn't intend to kill them. The intention was to send them into space and have them come back unharmed.

I wouldn't be too worried about the life support for human vessels. It's very well documented how much air per human is needed for a successful space flight, and agencies usually tend to bring more than enough to accomplish the mission. How much air per gecko on the other hand may not have been as accurate as they predicted. I'm guessing that the life support failure was human error rather than something like a leak, because of the survival of the fruit flies.

Russian Space Experiment in Reproduction Goes Wrong A brave Russian Cosmonaut that all will miss. A while ago the Russian Federal Space Agency decided to start an experiment on how 0G effects genitalia in various species. I know that sounds kind of funny, but it's actually pretty important work. You see, if we decide to do some deep space colonization, we need to know whether we can procreate in space or not. One of the plans for deep space exploration is to build a ship capable of holding a few hundred people and to have those people reproduce on the way to a planet designated for colonization. If it turns out that humans cannot reproduce in no gravity, then we will not be able to do this. To see if we may be able to or not, the RFSA came up with the experiment "gecko-f4" to send a craft into space with Geckos and Fruit Flies to see if they could successfully copulate and impregnate each other. The experiment was well though out and planned, and the reason they used both Geckos and Fruit Flies was primarily for the size of their organs (i.e. is bigger better or not). The craft was also equipped with cameras so that the procreation could be viewed in case there were issues that needed to be documented. However, the remote controlled craft ceased responding to commands shortly after it was launched. On September 1st, the craft came back down to Earth and it was discovered that the geckos did not survive. The leading theory as to why is because there may have been issues with the Life Support system on the craft. The results of the experiment are considered to be inconclusive due to the death of the geckos, but there is good news. The fruit flies that were included in the experiment not only survived, but were successfully able to reproduce. Our thoughts go out to the families of the Geckos who were lost. I can only hope that they had decent life insurance.

Good thing you aren't a Jedi then.

At this point all that can be known is that if the mafia tries to kill me off, then we know for sure that TheSilverCenturion is mafia and can lynch him. If TheSilverCenturion gets hit by the mafia, then it points to ME being mafia. o.O

Or didn't want to REVEAL YOURSELF TO BE MAFIA!!!

Meh, don't care about Bnus. If BZ1 turns out to be mafia, then his death will point me to two other mafia members. If not, then I will know that the two I thought were mafia are actually pro-town.

I think it's asmeezing that you guys think you can get past 20. Also, just in case, smeeze.

I have never felt this level of satisfaction at a lynching before. So awesome. Bye former-moderator-punchingbag

Dude. Gotta put that they were taken at PAX, otherwise it may be assumed they are leaked... And we ALL know what happens when things are leaked...

Look, alright. BeckoningZebra1 is either a Mafian trying to trick us into killing a civilian so that he and his cronies can continue to pick us off one by one OR he's an idiot. Either way, we should lynch him. #cleanthegenepool

That last part is more likely because... Well because it's BZ1.

Community Moderators cannot view PMs. Thanks for your vote of confidence though.

I know two of these aren't correct. I will reveal how I know later. However, this list makes me strongly suspect you as mafia. Primarily because if you truly are the detective, then that means that you've painted a giant bulls-eye on your head, which means you will probably be the next victim of the mafia. Well, actually, they'll probably strike at the medic that you have revealed to them (assuming that the list is even close to accurate), pretty much guaranteeing their victory. I believe this is a mafia con job, trying to get us to kill civilians. I say we lynch BeckoningZebra1 just to be safe. If it turns out he is the detective, then we know we can trust the list. If not, well then we can get a pretty good idea of who is mafia from the list.

I agree with Delpen9. Except for the MoM Destruct part. I don't think he's mafian. Zag is stuhpid

Spleef. Just kidding. Smeeze.

I vote BeckoningZebra1. If anyone would pistol whip a girl with a silenced weapon, it'd be him. Zag is stuhpid
