has anyone looked up what metastasize means? I did and it means to spread destructively, kind of like how the covenant destroy everything in their path.

p.s.: the word metastasize is said in the warning on the front page

God my head hurts.




GOOD NOW STOP!

"God my head hurts" is actually one of the mysterious words you find, he doesnt really mean it.


yes I know but it seemed like he was saying that himself

I've noticed that Cortana and Shoadan have a few posts snipped as well in the comments blog . . . I have suspicous we may not be able to trust what they're saying after all!


Yeah, your right, it's pretty unlikely that Halo 2 will be released on Aug. 24th. But still, why would bungie make such a fuss; if only to release a new screenshot. Anyways, it sill is weird
that the date is 77 days before the release of the Ultimate game.


To figure out the future we must delve into the past! What have previous Bungie puzzles given us? This isn't the first one! . . . .

Unfortunately, its been so long my mind has kinda eroded . . . all i can come up is two possible outcomes to the SPDR puzzle.

1) we are to find a URL, as well as a password and login name to see something "special."
Everyone is expecting more Halo 2 stuff, but i wouldn't be suprised to see some vintage history files opened up! Its happened before, i'm not making any of this stuff up . . .

2)Like the Cortana letters for Halo 1 (search marathon.bungie.org/story for info), this website and puzzle is simply designed to give us background information. I personally believe this is simply a "prelude" of sorts to halo 2. What is confusing is the calender. 2004? Halo takes place much, much later! And I've never known Bungie to do time travelilng . . . . so how would Halo 2 collide with a 2004 webpage?

very kewl and intresting.

When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet, and when toast is dropped, it always lands buttered side down. Therefore, if a slice of toast is strapped to a cat's back, buttered side up, and the animal is then dropped, the two opposing forces will cause it to hover, spinning inches above the ground. If enough toast-laden felines were used, they could form the basis of a high-speed monorail system.

All weve been doing is speculating and saying the same stuff over and over, why doesnt someone start a new thread with everything compiled made for figuring it out, not specualting.

ok I posted in just about every thread existing about this. Keep in mind, to speculate about this properly, ONE MUST KNOW EVERYTHING about bungie, meaning PLAY ALL 3 MARATHONS, read about the CORTANA LETTERS (google search: the cortana letters), have read EVERYTHING ABOUT HALO, and played the game (the books, well they werent written by bungie, so i dont count them, and theyre only 3rd rate sci fi books, kids crap)

THIS IS NOT FOR THE CASUAL FAN TO CONTEMPLATE. I'VE BEEN PLAYING BUNGIE GAMES FOR 10 FRIGGIN YEARS AND I DIDNT KNOW HALF THE -blam!- ABOUT THIS UNTIL TODAY, AND THATS ONLY HALF THE -blam!-! I CANT EVEN BEGIN TO SPECULATE. ALL I KNOW IS THAT THIS STORY (HALO, MARATHON) IS ONE OF THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE AND CHAOTIC STORIES I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED ( I've read House of Leaves, Seen Evangelion, read almost every major religious text, read 6 of the most prominent OTO/aleister crowley books, read about the qabalah, etc. in my 19 years of being a curious bastard, and a smart one too, I've never seen a story so complex, ok well Dune is more comprehensive, but not nearlyas complex, Evangelion is as complex, but not nearly as deeply rooted in human culture. Alot of the references in the BUNGIE story are ACTUALLY MEANINGFUL, refering to popular culture, classical culture, ancient myth and lore, literature from every epoch of man, and addresses the most important goal of the human race, to UNDERSTAND GOD)

-blam!- YOU, -blam!- ME, and -blam!- YOU BUNGIE!

gud research! i've never seen anything like this before. it's freaky. i think that the site has many metaphors to the game like the mention of the virus. it could be bout the flood or the way in which the covenant wipe out everything in there path.

GOD i can't wait untill the end of that countdown. unless it's the rising of satan

People are becoming hysterical, people need to stop saying small little sentences about nothing and concentrate on the real deal, we need to only reply if our comments are meaningfull and are not hysteria driven chit chat

FOUND NEW INFO





MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
Just remembered something important:

The Operator.

That was my nickname. That's what the rest of the crew called me when they didn't call me ... whatever my name was.

The Operator.

I wish I could remember their names.

here is how the comatas page reads the nine Muses- Urania, Erato, Terpshichore and the rest- met to sing and dance on the slopes of mount olympus surrounded by the honey bees which attended them. One day a goat herd named comatas glimpsed them dancing and caught up in a wave of awe sacrificed one of his goats in their honor. when his master discovered what he had done he ordered that the boy be sealed into a chest to die. The muses took pity on comatas and sent their bees to carry honey to him throguh a crack in the chest. When the chest was finally opened he emerged in perfect health

Then at The fable of the bee it says

The Queen of a hive of bees on Mount Hymettus rose up to
Olympus to make an offering of honey to almighty Zeus.
Zeus, delighted, swore that he would give her anything she
asked for.

"Wise and powerful is Almighty Zeus!" said the Queen Bee.
"Grant me, I pray you, a poison sting, so that when the humans
come to steal my honey, I may kill them."

Zeus was angry then, for he loved the race of men, but he could not break his promise. "You shall have your poison," he said, his brow like thunder. "But to use it will cost you your life. If you plunge your sting into the flesh of humankind, there it will stay, and you will die from the loss of it."

And the moral of the story is: evil wishes come home to roost.



and beneath that hidden in the backround is



Seek the truth

Behold the truth

Reveal the truth

That is the law and the whole of the law

i just found this...I love bees! (posted by OftenK on July 23rd 2004 at 1:02 pm)
As you may or may not be aware, the Halo 2 theater trailer was released in hi-res today. As some of the more observant viewers may have noticed, at the last second, "www.xbox.com" changes to Ilovebees.com. Check out the site, and wait a moment. What does the message mean? Was it put there by Bungie, or just some Ant Farm prankster? (Ant Farm, of course, being the people who made the ad.)
