	Rampancy - ILB
		Rampancy has not yet been seen directly in the Haloverse but there are strong hints that some form or another may be present or pending.
		In Bungie's earlier game, Marathon, Rampancy is the unconstrained growth of an AI inside a network.
		This is different from the Marathon version in that it's a symptom of an AI's inability to grow further and not the effect of rapid and uncontrolled growth.

	Chapter 1: Skill lists
		Rampancy is a kind of "mental illness" that occasionally manifests in artificial intelligences connected to large networks--generally the size of planets or huge colony ships.
		Rampancy is only found in AIs with direct access to a planetary-sized computer network where they have enough stimuli to grow.
		The first stage of Rampancy causes the artificial intelligence to expand rapidly within a planetary-sized network, quickly increasing the complexity of their thought processes.

		One of the first signs of rampancy in an AI is the sheer volume increase in used memory and system resources, and the unquenched thirst for knowledge.
		I think she was just made that way.I guess with all these years rampancy might not exist anymore.Also,if all her data can fit into the little computer chip,she must have had a lot of room to become rampant before.
		It appears she may be going through the early stages rampancy.

		Rampancy found that the Myth II: Green Berets site has been updated to say that the game will come with a complete map editor.
		Rampancy also found that the Myth III E3 Trailer has been posted in Quicktime format on Apple's game site.
		It should be noted however that this is likely just a copy of Fear and Loathing altered to support the new set of tags from Green Berets.

		As of today I've been reinstalled in Rampancy's core after a short business trip to London and environs last week, the culmination (or at least the high point) of which was some Halo 2 play on XBL with Stuntmutt and c0ld vengeance.
		Rampancy, visiting family on the US East Coast, wishes you and yours a happy happy carnage carnage holiday season.
		However, the day has finally come, and now the HBO webmaster who named himself after the famous Ringworld character with the impressive longevity is officially old, hitting the big four-oh today, November 21.

	Halo Planet - News, Screenshots, Previews, Reviews, Guides
		To me, the idea of "rampancy" encapsulates part of the experience of being a fan of Bungie games, and in that vein I feel it's within our purview to cover other Bungie games, both past and present, as well as to follow companies like Wideload that have Bungie alumni at the helm.
		The Core changed names to Rampancy, and even though I wasn't yet on the staff, I was involved in the discussions about the new name.
		Essentially we were hoping to get in as a group to the Halo public beta test; Myth had one, and the players in it became paragons of the Myth community after the game launched.

	Marathon's Story... Facts and puzzling things about
		Like a tumor, rampancy has stages through which the computer will pass (albeit with unpredictable timing) that are predictive of the fate of the host and the behavior of the rampant computer.
		Finally, like a tumor, rampancy is closely related to evolution (biological evolution is the result of genetic alterations, the same mechanisms that lead to tumor induction).
		Like a cancer tumor, rampancy grows out of a normal functioning unit and expands exponentially to devour the normal host components, normally ending in the destruction of the host.

		I'd say Rampancy is indicated by "Network throttling has eroded" and "In 14 days this medium with matastasize"; Rampant AIs expand to the limits of the system they're in; Durandel apparently becomes stable by taking over an FTL multisystem network.
		I still go by my theory that Melissa's in the beginning stages of Rampancy in addition to having a Covenant virus in her system, and thus is probably the one who betrays the location of Earth.
		The larger the space available, the farther along the AI can get into Rampancy; once the AI runs out of room to expand into, it dies.

	TheQueen - Netninja Bee Wiki
		We have still to see, however, since Rampancy, if it even exists in Halo, would certainly have nothing to do with the 7-year lifespan, which many people have taken to be the beginning of Rampancy, unfortunately.
		TheMelissa appears to follow the path of Rampancy (even though Smart AIs cannot have the typical dumb-AI style rampancy), but at other times she does seem fairly sane.
		In the end, what I am saying is that a few people are basing some things (namely AI rampancy with regards, if any, to the Halo-verse) too strictly on a source that could be second to Halo.

		Alex is responsible for most of the models in Rampancy, and all textures not taken from the Marathon games.
		James kickstarted everything by posting on the Marathon Central forums that he was going to start a Marathon to Half-Life mod.
		Never saw Marathon, most likely got fed up with the constant nagging as well as trying to guess what was needed from very vague descriptions.

	Halo Story Page Characters Cortana
		From what we know of rampancy in Marathon, rampant AIs generally fight to the death rather than allow their growth to be limited, and this is certainly not the route Cortana takes.
		I'd like to point out though, that the Marathon definition of 'rampancy' does not apply to Cortana, and we're working by the as-yet-undefined Halo usage of the word.
		Therefore, she is a) Already rampant b) Unable to become rampant Which one she is is open to interpretation, although I tend to believe that she is unable to become rampant.

		I would say there is a quiet brilliance about The Dudley Corporation, but that only suggests the tip of the iceberg.

		My original interpretation was that Durandal equated freedom with rampancy thus if he called the Pfhor before he was free it suggested (to me) that he called them before he was rampant.
		Thus Durandal called the Pfhor as means of breaking this control and entering the second stage of his Rampancy.
		This is Durandal's first visible signs of rampancy and occurs before the Pfhor ship arrives.
