 Re: Weekly Update Message 2
Interesting stuff. I wonder why Delta Halo failed with the containment protocol? I doubt the given suggestion that it was just a random mechanical error is the answer; I sense something much more sinister.
Anyone have any ideas?

 Re: Weekly Update Message 2
My take on it was that the "quadrant" in [quadrant oversight] is refering to a section of the ring, not a section of the galaxy. Presumably, [quadrant oversight] is one of 2401's subordinates in charge of overseeing whatever part of the ring the problem is taking place on.

 Re: Weekly Update Message 2
Av, I don't understand how you can say that this message happened before the last.
The last message was the first alert of it, then said that 300 years had passed since.
Now we see that 100,000 years have passed since that event.
Doesn't that number ring a bell? It has been 100,000 years since the Forerunners activated the Halos. This tells me that the flood infestation has been crawling around since not too long after the original activation.
However, my guess is that their forces were bolstered not too long before the events of Halo 2...

 Re: Weekly Update Message 2
I think(dumbest post ever) that--most simply put--this could possibly mean new maps for Halo 2?
I don't know, I'm not too good on the smartness thing.
I think that it would have something to do with it, I'm not sure.

 Re: Weekly Update Message 2
One thing I notice here is that the system that is watching Delta Halo rules out sabotage because there was no outside agent accessing it. However, keep in mind that the flood was studied there, and therefore, wasn't an outside agent. But still, something happened on that ring to release the flood three hundred years before the Covenant set foot on it, what it was, though, remains a mystery.
What we have here is a protocol or program filing away report after report which literally spelled out what was happening to Delta site. Adjutant Reflex would have been smarter than to not realize what was happening. Therefore, the thing filing the complaints is likely a dumb AI (or 2 dumb AIs, the first being used for primarily for maintenance and the second for atmosphere control.)
We are not being given hints from an intelligent AI, Bungie is just being so kind as to shed light to a few unread files so that we can put it together ourselves and gain some details about a new map.

 Re: Weekly Update Message 2
Av, I'm very confused by your theory. The first message says the incident happened 300 years prior to the final log.
This message says that the incident happened 99,779 years prior to the log.
???????
What I will say is that it appears that this log may take place in 2200...possibly leading up to the 2500s?
