About me

Formerly Specops306, an administrator at Halopedia during the Wikia years. I like to offer advice and help where able, and if you need to contact me you can reach me here. If you just want to talk, then my message board or talk page is a good place! I also have a skype accountif you want to contact me. I'm generally selective with contact requests though. I may not reply as soon as I'd like - timezone issues, work, uni, etc. - but I'll reply as soon as I can!

Before anyone asks, too, the Fidel Castro avatar is done in irony. I may be relatively liberal, but I'm not a communist or a totalitarian. Ah, but the look of sadness as he clutches his flag, the way atear almost seems to be trickling down his cheek as he thinks of the long gone glory days of the revolution...

I have a Twitter account!

Favorite Halo moment

The temporary alliance of the Master Chief and Arbiter with the Flood on The Covenant was brilliantly done. The eerie surroundings of a darkened Forerunner building, the vain defence the Covenant tried to put up against the shambling monstrosities fighting alongside you, and the ultimate betrayal of the Flood (again) at the end of the level.

Worst Halo moment

Jorge's death. Not worst as in terrible, worst as in "dear god, why did you have to do that to me Bungie...no, there's just something in my eye..."

Anything else

"Evolution is an illusion, a name you give for the passage of time. Nothing changes. Nothing innovates. Throughout time, all that happens is that the universe remains constant, eternal...stagnant. And so you imagine that it improves, and by imagining it you make it so. It is the ultimate self-deception...because it makes it true. You try to innovate. You try to invent. And in your ignorance, you forget that all has been done before - by the Forerunners, or the Precursors, or by their predecessors. Your presence, your actions and their consequences, are ultimately irrelevant. When you are dead, your kind long since turned to dust, the universe will still remain, an impartial, unmoving and unforgiving monument to all our sins. And I will still be here."

Hi, I've seen an error in a "Did you know", could you fix it? It says: "...that the Ripa 'Moramee was the Seventeenth Arbiter in the Line of Immaculate Succession"

"the" Ripa 'Moramee.

Thanks.

Not sure if I want to congratulate.

Bring the Cabal back!

And on the subject of heat and stealth...

"Another intriguing possibility is thermal cloaking, Maldovan says: materials that prevent detection of heat, just as recently developed metamaterials can create “invisibility cloaks” to shield objects from detection by visible light or microwaves."

Looks like we've got our stealth in space back. :-D

Would you mind if Ell and I were to involve the Unggoy Star Empire in the events of Vilagfa?
