Year: 2000

Good news the Halo SETI team page now shows all 146 members rather than the top 100. Who are the invisible 46? The Jjaro Difference Engine grinds SETI bones. Who swithed that baby on again? Check the Halo SETI 24 hour team stats for the tru7h and nothing but the tru7h!

Then there were two. According to a Core news item Rob Swenson (aka Noctavis) will be working with Tyson (aka Ferrex) “for the foreseeable future” on the Core site and other sites to come. Noctavis was responsible for the Halo News interview with Nathan Bitner.

Seeing is believing. Alan Stott reports that HALO-NET has had yet another update. Nobody here believed him until we looked. Alan also reports that FREESITE will be online soon offering free web-space without any adverts. Halo web site maintainers to your engines!

Halo Network is offline for a rebuild. Not sure what was wrong with the original design.

Keep checking those new main page graphics at Battleground: Halo. Somebody is keeping busy.

Kudos to Timothy Wilson, who was the first of many to point out that Bungie will be webcasting from MacWorld this week. (Tim got it from Voodoo Extreme, but the original press release seemed to be sent out by Bungie itself.)

“The Psyjnir Complex is finally completed!” says Marathon (formerly Psyrixx). Check it out.

The Halo SETI marines keep on pumping into the new year. Who pumps the most?

We received a rather strange message tonight, from Halo-Net and the Nether Legion: Intercepted incoming transmission… decode: 233.43.223.01 message subject: You really need to stop your struggling… Hello again, you know, I’ve been talking to the zealots and your little encampment may be doomed, of course that depends on just how willing you are to…

SETI stats are back, and the SETI servers are keeping up with us. Check out the 24 hour stats! (Our club standing continues to fall… we’re down to 128 now.)

Kudos to Ian Mankowski, who sends us a new bit of artwork for our Miscellaneous Art page. (You’ll find it at the end of the Original section.) Thanks, Ian! Pax.

Jon Chang writes to let us know that DEHc-3 Halo has gotten a complete overhaul. Easy to read, still the best place to go for Culture info! Thanks, Jon.

John from EuroGamer writes to tell us that Halo is featured in their “Picks for 2000” article, available yesterday. Nice to see Halo recognized! Thanks, John.

And they all said we’d have problems when the clocks ticked over last night. Pshaw.
