I'm new here... Why the name?
I use the forums but just stumbled upon the seventh column and really like the posts here, but was wondering where the name comes from.

1 ReplyEdited by tuckers baby: 5/1/2016 3:35:51 PMBefore you start listening to the newbies ramble on about some [i]Density[/i] medal, sit down and let an Oldfig tell you a tale. The Seventh Column's origins are still shrouded in mystery, but I personally can attest that it has been around for over a decade prior to Destiny's release. It is however, a byproduct of Bungie.net, and it's official group has been inactive for some time now. Personally, I've always linked it to Bungie's [i]"Seven Steps to World Domination,"[/i] but it is for sure due to the company's love for the number seven. Tru7th...

Welcome! While the Seventh Column is a medal you get in Destiny, it is also the name ( [i]it's still used by many, you just don't see it as often nowadays[/i]) for the Bungie community. Here's a neat page for it off of Bungiepedia ([i]a community updated Wiki-type site[/i]) that explains it too. [url]http://bungie.wikia.com/wiki/The_Seventh_Column[/url]

3 RepliesAchieving 7th column in Destiny is killing 7 people in a short time. Lord Shaxx yells out, "SEVENTH COLUMN!"

1 ReplyIt is a possible reference to the term "Fifth Column", which is a group of individuals clandestinely undermining a larger group from within.
