Alright, maybe this stuff is already known, but it may be helpful to recap a few things.
First, it seems the Ilovebees site is going through even more trashing with completely new phrases. It seems to be revealing new content as time goes on. An example:
[color=orange]
MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
black beach, nothing but sand and darkness. Sometimes, in the distance, dry lightning: in the flash I see pieces of the wreck around me, the spars and rigging of my brain
-hold on. hold on. Steady up. Get a grip, girl. You have to fight through this.
Take a deep breath.
Survival Key #3: How Badly Are You Hurt?
Mentally, subject is confused and disoriented.
I keep slipping in and out of consciousness.
Physically, subject is paralyzed but moving.
Okay.
What the hell does THAT mean?
Held down: yes. As if strapped to a table. Could I be in traction in some sick bay, some hospital ward?
Not necessarily one of ours.
But at the same time, parts of me being moved around, emptied out. As if under general anaesthetic, dimly conscious, half-aware as the surgeon cuts off my feet and sews them onto my shoulders. She opens my head with a medical hammer and sand spills out.
I WANT TO DIE I WANT TO-
-no.
never that.
survive evade reveal escape. That is all you know, or need to know.

I know that most of all the different sayings on the site were catalogued, but I haven't seen this one before. Next, is the odd Marathon.Bungie site. For some reason you are always the 777777th visitor. And if you click the link for news for July,
http://marathon.bungie.org/story/newmjuly-aug04.html
You'll get nothing but an error page. However, by taking out the extra 'm' in the URL, you get:
http://marathon.bungie.org/story/newjuly-aug04.html
Which links to the correct page. Also odd, at the bottom of the page, he says that the page counter was 'created by some nefarious being :)'. More confusion.
And if anyone wanted the source code to the countdown timer, (which is named countdowntochina.js) here it is:
[color=blue]
Countdown();
function Countdown()
{
currentDate = new Date();
targetDate = chinatime;
//alert(targetDate);
diff = targetDate.getTime() - currentDate.getTime();
diffSecs = Math.floor(diff/1000);
diffMins = Math.floor(diffSecs/60);
diffHours = Math.floor(diffMins/60);
diffDays = Math.floor(diffHours/24);
milliseconds = diff % 1000;
seconds = diffSecs % 60;
mins = diffMins % 60;
hours = diffHours % 24;
days = diffDays;
millisecondsStr = "";
if (milliseconds < 10){
millisecondsStr = "00"+milliseconds;
}
else if (milliseconds < 100){
millisecondsStr = "0"+milliseconds;
}
else millisecondsStr = milliseconds+"";
secondsStr = (seconds < 10 ? "0"+seconds : seconds+"");
minsStr = (mins < 10 ? "0"+mins : mins+"");
hoursStr = (hours < 10 ? "0"+hours : hours+"");
daysStr = (days < 10 ? "0"+days : days+"");
document.getElementById("counter").innerText = daysStr + ":" + hoursStr + ":" + minsStr + ":" + secondsStr + ":" + millisecondsStr;
setTimeout("Countdown()", 99);
}

I know most of this doesn't make sense and is mostly disorganized, but I hope this helps someone be able to try some things together and WIN this thing. This is one game I don't want Bungie to win, I want the FANS to win this time. Hoorah to everyone who tries to figure this out.
