I can't remember who it was (Marty?) who hinted that we hadn't found all the secrets in game: maybe there's *still* another skull? I reckon it'll appear after all of them have been collected. Or something stupid.

Posted by Anton P. Nym at May 20, 2006 12:59 PMHehehe. The good old EGATFIBGBCSIMAW. Well, try going through the game [halo 2] on legendary and collect all the skulls, and look around while fighting Tarturus. You will see what the W means.

Have fun!
Posted by AfroRyan at July 18, 2006 2:25 AMI posted this over on the HBO forums...and Mr. Chavez liked it, so here's a copy and paste job:
BMDWATBATWMC
Because Marvel Did What All The Bastards At Titan Wouldn't Make Cuts.
Kinda just popped into my head...the T could also stand for Tokyopop...but I doubt it matters one way or the other.
and here's Miguel's reply:
wow, that's actually close to something that would really make sense
because marvel did what all the bastards/bitches at Time Warner mxxx couldn't?
DC is owned by Time Warner
Posted by AfroRyan at July 18, 2006 5:27 PMPerhaps the second M in the BMDWATBATWMC is actually a name, ie; Because Marvel Did What All Those Bastards At Time Warner, Mike, Couldn't.
Just a thought.

Hehe. Boxer's take on the Halo Graphic Novel acronym is pretty funny. But I have to say that the "M" doesn't stand for Marvel; though one of the words was guessed correctly.
=D
Cheers!

I'm not sure why some folks continue to submit guesses to DMUKYA... It's ALREADY been solved! It was one of the first ones to be solved guys, it's over 10 years old.

Based on that, I would guess the last two letters to be "Fuck you."

I wonder if it's too much to ask for a

solution...no hints, just yes or no.
It would bring happiness to a great many
people to have just that much!
i agree with /\ /\ /\ bungie should think about releasing all the hidden stuff in their games when the game is over 5 years old
Posted by senuti at December 23, 2006 12:24 AMvar chinatime = new Date(2552,10,9,6,7,0);
LoL
That is the date that the Forerunners set the Halo's to be set from camloflauge. Before then they were hidden. It is all part of there plan.
The fact that they died was a huge conspiracy. It never happened. They ARE alive. They set there machines everywhere to help set off the galactic destruction of the universe. Why?
The humans, and the covenant.
There technology was advancing far too fast for the Forerunners to allow it. They intilized a secret and very fast plan. Which would lead to one thing - Major Destruction.
They lost a lot of there own, but that is to be expected. The Ark - Ha!
The Forerunners made that!?
Of Course. But Why?
By the time you beat Halo 3 you still won't know. You won't know until the end of Halo Wars.
Don't bother asking anout me at bungie. I didn't leave enough info to be tracked down. Believe this or not. I don't care.

Posted by jub at January 28, 2007 3:35 AMJNAMSFTFY
IT has pretty much been confirmed that the JNAM acronym is synonyms for the powers of the skulls. THe synonyms where to be typed in on a virtual keyboard allowing halo 2 skulls to be turned on/off
Juggernaut(MYTHIC)
Nosferatu(BLACK EYE)
Assassins(ASSASSINS)
Makeover(ENVY)
and so on
JNAM (yes...just the first half)
J..........Juggernaut
N..........Nosferatu
A..........Assassins
Makeover...Envy
It was found in the hex...but is that really the first part of JNAMSFTFY or not?

The acronym shows up in the Halo 3 Beta, too.
Posted by DemanusFlint at May 17, 2007 10:06 PMWe're exceedingly lame for not fingering this out. But look! This is the first Halo acronym COMPLETELY solved. Now just that W in the Halo 2 one. D:
Posted by Funkmon at May 17, 2007 11:32 PMIm guessing it is "Would it help if i said please" since the skull is un-named and the first word of the phrase that activates the skull is a W so thats my guess.
Posted by DRK TwiSteR at May 23, 2007 6:07 AMHalo 2 for Windows Vista has the acronym "DTARAGS" in the usual spot; on both the back of the cardboard sleeve and the back of the new clamshell PC game box.
I'm guessing that the first few letters stand for: "DirectX Ten..." or maybe even "DirectX Ten Ain't..."
Posted by HookMeUpImLocal at May 25, 2007 3:45 AMNice! Added to the list up top.
Posted by mnemesis at May 25, 2007 2:51 PMI personally think it would more likely be something not involving DirectX. My first thoughts were "Don't trust anyone/anybody"
Posted by at May 25, 2007 9:33 PMFollowup to my previous comment about "Don't trust" - I was thinking, could possibly be "Don't tell" also

Posted by Brandon at September 26, 2007 6:45 PM"JLTLEBLC = Just love the limited edition, because legendary can't. :P" Posted by: Brandon
I think it's more likely it would be something like Just love the limited edition, because legendary costs. But I think the best suggestion yet on this one was "Just like the legendary edition but less cool".
True, or maybe "Just like Legendary Edition, but less costly" or 'Collectible' or, like you said 'Cool'.
This one got to me: SLMCWMYOW
So Long Master Chief, We'll Miss You(r) _ _ ? Maybe "Your Old Ways"?
These acronyms have gotten under my skin. I want to figure them all out. :(
