Is it anything to do with the 158th Banshee Squadren?



Found it. Sweet.

If you're gonna facepalm, do it right.

There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.

EDIT: I actually love this stuff. But I have not been en-lighted so far, therefore I join the discussion.

We know:

1.)
162 is the message. It's of course unsure if this is actually a number  :ick:  It could be 1 - 6 - 2 or 16 - 2 or A - F - B or  ~ (that's the Ascii Code)...    you get the idea  :shaking:    And of course it still could be the number of days until release :lol:
2.) it's somehow related to It's something everybody on HLP knows, even if they don't usually think of it. The obvious moderator's answer would be the search-function :lol: but somehow I doubt it. Donations-Page would also be funny. The Ascii theory would give us the ~ but that's stupid.
By the way, if you search for A F D you get the Common Issues thread  :lol:  Yeah, okay I stop it.
3.) it's related to Silent Thread Reborn. Proof: The Halo 2 Riddle was related to the actual game as well.

However Goob, a hint about what we are actually looking for would be nice? Is it something actually related to the release? Or just a completely generic riddle? Because it could be anything from ST:R takes place 162 days after FS1 ended to 162 is the result of all team members' age added together   :shaking:

Boys and Girls, we need more ideas here. Discuss!

Yes. A lot of people have got it, Vid. It's kind of Purloined Letter-esque.

You're really really really really overthinking it. 

Seriously, on certain parts of HLP if you're looking in the right place, it's right in front of you.  Maybe not 162, not certain things like it.

He's good at that.

And Vidmaster, just to guide you along a bit, there's no real inherent meaning behind the exact value of "162."  The clue could just as easily have been 547 or 86, and it would have worked out the same way.

Guess so. All more complex possibilites lead to more possibilites or dead-ends.
Need to think this over.

The answer is not to be seen through the magnifying glass, but on the magnifying glass itself....
