    AZN and I are creating a group of smart folks to study and reverse engineer Halo 3's spawn system. We are looking for people who are affiliated with science, mathematics, or programming (either as a hobby or occupation)to assist us in this journey for knowledge to better understand the system that is the backbone of all good maps.

    AZN FTW: As in we are looking to figure out the equations and rules of spawn placement... this research team will also look into other technical topics about Halo. As in damage calculation, object spawns, explosion direction, etc... This will give us more info on Halo 3 in general and when understood it would allow us to do certain things more efficiently...

    Re: Spawn System Reverse Engineering Project

    We especially need a secretary... mainly cuz I'm lazy at taking down test results... I'm just good at speculating theories and stuff like that...

    I'm always down for research and breaking stuff, I would like to finish the projects on my plate first though .... I slacked last night and played customs with Insane and Waffle ....

    yea that was a mistake... plus all the pacing and jabbering from me and AZN.

    English skills aren't required for secretary, if they were we would never find someone. You just need to be patient enough to take note of pretty much every thing we test and what the outcome is.

    Re: Spawn System Reverse Engineering Project

    I'm not good at taking notes. When I was in school, I rarely ever took notes that I could directly repeat. I always relied on the good old brain, but all the booze/narcotics in high school and College took it's toll ......

    Well we need to find someone that is good at taking notes... I doubt we will find someone in a gaming community (gamers are the most lazy people ever...)

    Re: Spawn System Reverse Engineering Project

    what do you mean by reverse engineering? What information are you hoping to find?

    Everything we can determine with tests. (ex. would you always spawn in a priority 1 spawn area if there is no one inside. does the spawn area even determine that base on if other people are inside or near it. etc)

    I never said you were a druggie, just you had mentioned drugs and i was just comparing myself to the part about being bad at taking notes.
