Way back when Bungie had a support site. The Support site featured the ability to talk to the soul of a guy who released an early beta of Marathon: Infinity, and then put the wrong labels on the shipping discs!
His job was simple: answering your questions (with a smile).
Unfortunately, when Bungie.net was revamped in 2004, The Soul became a bearer of bad news for all Bungie.net members (literally). Two community members (poena.dare and Gholsbane) decided that leaving the Soul in it's current state was unfitting for his injustices, and decided to duplicate him for the [i]sole[/i] purpose of answering questions again.
When poena.dare's site went down (and the Soul broke free), I took on the reins of the beast. Though not perfect by any means, it gets the job done.
[url=http://www.duardo.net/soul]You will find him here, waiting for you.[/url] He may be a little mean, but he won't hurt you (much).
[quote]The page has remain almost unchanged from poena.dare's site. I will be making updates soon. I wanted this to be released for Bungie Day.
Feel free to post your conversations with the Soul in the thread. [url=http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?cid=58]Here's an early example[/url] of what awaits you.[/quote]

[edit] Just to let you know the site isn't working properly for me. I'll try again, but you may want to check your coding and make sure you didn't edit something while adding lines.

Alright guys, I added about 30 new lines, and edited some existing ones. Hope you enjoy :)

Oh this is a blast from the past. Thank you Duardo.
-
He told me this:I'm a rules-based perl script. This whole soul thing is just a big scam.
-
yeah, bit of a brainfart on the "How to spell Duardo" front there. my bad.
-
It speaks ^_^ Question: Who is silentdragon? The soul says: What the hell kind of question is that?!!
-
...jenkins
-
The first is someone else.........I'll probably add more responses tonight :) [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] baldeagle24 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] DarthCarrick Question: Duard0 The soul says: My brain hurts.[/quote]Question: Duardo The soul says: Have you PM'd Duardo lately? Okay??[/quote]
-
Very cool.
-
Question: "Do you like me?" The soul says: "You know the answer. Just look in the mirror." Oooh, burn.
-
Duardo ;)
-
Question: Ling Ling The soul says: Ah, you seek the source of my power... never!

Question: Sliding Ghost The soul says: I think I know what you're talking about. Please continue. Question: Candy apples The soul says: Let's not talk about that. Let's talk about something fun. Question: Glitch? The soul says: You certainly have a point. Please continue. Question: H3 The soul says: Your irrelevant questions try my patience. Get to the point. Question: It's badass The soul says: You certainly have a point. Please continue. Question: amen The soul says: Hot damn! That's swell! Question: well ima going to bed. Ciao. The soul says: OK, watch your back. Question: how many questions does it take to get to the center of a soul? The soul says: Awe, that's an easy one! Ask me something more challenging. Question: 1, 2, my brain hurts? The soul says: I'm a soul, not a psychiatrist. Ask me a question about one of Bungie's games. That's what I was enslaved to answer.

"Question: How will 343 Studios treat the Halo series? The soul says: Not Bungie; don't care." THE SOUL HAS SPOKEN.
-
My favorite questions so far are: Stosh (gives the best answer IMO) and Eat My Shorts I have a list on the 2nd page of a bunch that I've found that give unique responses BTW.
-
I laughed hard at some of the responses I got out of him.
-
Finally back from the dead it would seem.
-
I remember someone did an MSN Messenger version of it, where you added a contact and it would basically do the same as this...anyone else remember?
