What purpose did i love bees ever serve for the Halo canon? It doesn't seem to bear much, if any relevance at all to the series. I don't know a great deal about it, but I think it's very out of place in the Halo context.[[Special:Contributions/76.119.65.146|76.119.65.146]] 08:29, April 25, 2010 (UTC) | What purpose did i love bees ever serve for the Halo canon?

:It's a sidestory initially created to not be canon. It was, however, officially produced, canon or no. The Dead or Alive crossover, also not canon, seems to exist in the same universe.

I'm starting to doubt the veracity of the image of kids at a payphone as depicting ILB players engaged in the ARG. It comes from a brief news video covering ILB that I believe was originally aired on G4. I'm starting to wonder if those kids were actually players or just the news crew's kids, called over to a payphone to get a shot. It's not like news shows don't do that kind of thing to create B-roll where none exists. ILB was a really dense game involving actual footwork to make it to payphones listed as GPS coordinates. While there are certainly younger kids (what are they, ten to twelve?) who are capable of that, it seems like the vast majority of ILB players were adults, and those seem like the ones who would be scouting out the payphones. Notably, Wikipedia's ILB page shows adults crowded around a payphone. What's everyone's thoughts on this? --<b>[[User:Dragonclaws|<font color="#800080">Dragon<font color="#DE397E">c</font>laws</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Dragonclaws|<font color="#6600D8">talk</font>]])</sup></b> 18:37, 31 January 2015 (EST) | I'm starting to doubt the veracity of the image of kids at a payphone as depicting ILB players engaged in the ARG.

:Agreed. The Wikipedia image is verified as being of ILB players. Beyond that, as you said, it's also more representative of the average ILB player. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[ | :Agreed.
