Alright, people. This is my first time posting on the boards, although I've had this account for a while. Just bear with me.

A few things I've noticed, and I thought would be useful to point out:

I'm sure you've all noticed a particular sound that plays as you access one of the pages. With some help, I've found out something interesting. That sound is the sound a queen bee makes. Not only that, but the queen bee only makes this sound when she is trapped. The sound is a call for her bees to come and protect her, and she only makes this noise when her life is in danger. Sound familiar? It should. It's the same general message relayed through the scattered texts around the site. Trapped...endangered...all alone...

Second, on the "honey" page, Aunt M. tells us she can't produce more honey at the moment due to an infection of "varrao mites". (Note: I have noticed alternate spellings of this mite. One is spelled 'varrao', the other 'varroa', although they appear to be the same mite.)

On further inspection, the mites seem to have some characteristics that ring a bell. They attach onto their chosen host and cause deformities, eventually resulting in death. Another effect of these destructive mites is "queenlessness". In other words, these mites cause the colony to be without a leader. This sounds like something we're familiar with, doesn't it? Think Captain Keyes and the Flood.

It has become clear that the varrao mites are an integral part of this puzzle. Whoever narrarates the texts throughout the site speaks often of an eight-legged creature. This creature steals the narrarator's thoughts. The narrarator then goes on to say he or she has become a monster. It's all in the texts.

I have come to belileve that this eight-legged creature is none other than a Flood infection form. I also believe the infection form is too similar to the varrao mite to be purely coincidental. See for yourself. The similarities don't just stop with text. The varrao mite even looks like a Flood infection form. Don't believe me? Check it out:

Maybe for cortana, an operating table is a computer. And she has been taken and put into a computer, by the covenant, so they can take everything she knows, and destroy earth.

Maybe it's got something to do with Bungie.net which involves Halo 2 (not that it already doesn't revolve around it)

If any of this weirdness is related to halo 2 at all I would have to agre with that sounding like Kelly. Dr. Halsey did kidnap her and took off somewhere.........

Since the URL appears in the official Halo 2 trailer you can guarantee that it's a Microsoft/Bungie advert. From the looks of the site it's been set up specially for this reason and the owner has been told how to remove the javascript in the Blog but she hasn't. Hardly suprising if Microsoft have paid for the use of the site, or even own the site themselves.
As for whats going to happen when the timer runs out it's either going to be an announcement or Halo 2 will have a playable demo out on the Official Xbox Magazine???

Did you know too that Aunt M and Dana have no personal records nor does it seem as if her shop even exists.

Her shop doesnt exist, nor does she...and also the website was created in June....

I find this kinda' funny. It's strange how history repeats it's self. Some of you may remember that there was a big Halo 2 coming out on Nov. 15th conspiracy last year and everyone was going crazy about it. This is no different. The day will finally come and nothing will happen. Again.

Trust me.

The more I read this the more I think HALO 2 will be released early..

However, I was reading in EGM, and they say that HALO is coming to the GBA as a rumor.. perhaps this project will be announced officially?

Going with the varrao mites thing. Who else on halo is considered a leader, someone who is stronger than and respected by it's lower ranks. Master Chief of course, and if it is true that the queen may be infected with a varrao mite, this site could just be giving away story information. Perhaps master cheif was infected by one of the flood. I dont know where to go from there though. someone help me out

Bungie already killed that rumor a while back....that would also be stupid.

Halo on GBA think about it would that really work?

Looking on the www.Ilovebees.com FAQ's page, earlier in the posting process an apparent friend to Aunt Margaret comments about Varroa Mites and comments about the mispelling on the site. She goes on and says, "I did some research on those things...very nasty. How goes her fight against the little beasties?" Having read this I decided that if this was just a huge treasure hunt from Bungie and Microsoft then why not try to crack it. I checked out these Varroa mites and one site (a serious site, not one related to this) describes them quite well and in the Halo world they sound an awful lot like the Flood. The site talks about how these mites have and can lead to the death of a great number of bees or bee colonies. The mites feed off of the blood of bees larvae and pupae. Meaning the Flood doesn't just use humans.
On Ilovebees.com I noticed the "Fable of the Bee" it tells an interesting story in and out of the Halo Realm. However, such a story leads me to think that the "bees" are metaphorically the Covenant. They wish to destroy humankind and such a power could only be granted through the vast power of Halo, which would inevitably lead to their death as well. Upon the destruction of the only known Halo they decided to attack earth in revenge and to pursue their objective head on.
Now, if the Flood is in fact referred to as the "varroa mites" then they would attach themselves to the "bees" and wait to lay their eggs (as the female Mite is said to do) until the opportune time. Who's to say that no Covenant survived the first Halo? Perhaps, a ship escaped with a grunt or Elite or some kind of Covenant that was infected with a stowaway female flood parasite that was laying dormant until it saw fit to attack. It would wait until it was surrounded by more Covenant so when it "exploded" (you know the Flood enemy I'm talkin about) and its mites attacked and took over either a covenant ship.
This is where I have two branches of the story...yea, this is long I know and I'm sorry. If the Flood killed and took over a ship escaping Halo, then they could have infected one of the upcoming Prophets and gained intelligence and even forethought. They could indefinitely have a strong strategic advantage on Earth and the Covenant. They would know the Covenant's plans to attack Earth and would wait until both sides had hurt each other so badly that they would be overwhelmed by the unexpected Flood invasion/attack, and they would win without much of a fight. Which is where our story for the MC would lie...maybe.
The other way is about the same but if the Stoweaway Flood Parasite waited until the infected Covenant trooper came in close quarters with a Prophet or when it was deployed to Earth and attacked both races with the blind rage and unmerciful killing that we're all accustomed to the Flood having.
I just kind of went on all that. So, hey, there's my stab at a story line spoiler and the whole purpose of the site. The countdown clock...I hope that the comment earlier is right and they release the game unexpectingly early for either pre-orders or for everyone. Whatever happens, I know the Game will be awesome and I've got my 2 pre-order stubs sitting in my wallet right now. Have fun with the site guys and hope you enjoyed my ranting. If not, sorreh...just havin fun

Personally, I'm thinking more towards the Covenant, rather than the humans. A Prophet being infected, perhaps?
