I searched Whois.org for ILoveBees.com, and got a return listing the following information:

Registrant:
Margaret's House of Bees
Margaret's House of Bees
2370 Market Street #510
San Francisco, CA 94114-1575
US

Registrar: NAMESDIRECT
Domain Name: ILOVEBEES.COM
Created on: 14-JUN-04
Expires on: 14-JUN-09
Last Updated on: 15-JUL-04

Administrative, Technical Contact:
Efendi, Margaret ladybee777@hotmail.com
Margaret's House of Bees
Margaret's House of Bees
2370 Market Street #510
San Francisco, CA 94114-1575
US
415-248-2617


Domain servers in listed order:
NS1.MYDOMAIN.COM
NS2.MYDOMAIN.COM
NS3.MYDOMAIN.COM
NS4.MYDOMAIN.COM

End of Whois Information

This site is listed as being created on June 14, which would mean The Ant Farm would have just enough time to stick that address in there before it finished the trailer and sent it to Bungie for approval and distribution.

I've also done a search for Margaret's House of Bees in San Fran, CA, guess what? It's a no-show. Also, you may have noticed the registrant as being Margaret Efendi, well, guess what? No public records list a Margaret Efendi. I then did a phone search for the number listed by the whois search, and guess what? There's no such number.

I think this conclusively proves that ILoveBees.com was made by Microsoft and/or Bungie

Some Xbox game. Like killzone, or ILoveBees game

The mods have nothing to do with this, so you can scratch that from the list.

I did a search for the address, and it came up with a few things:

General Nutrition Ctr - Health & Diet Foods-Retail, Vitamins
Contact: Joe Munoz
2370 Market Street
San Francisco, CA 94114-1575
phone: 415-431-9963

San Francisco Frontiers Newsmagazine
2370 Market St. 2nd Floor
San Francisco, CA 94114-1575
phone: 415-487-6000
http://www.frontiersweb.com

...and well i guess a lot more, and i'm not from the area, at all, but it sounds like it could be a mall or something (you know, there are some really strange\odd\gross things there, look up the address and see....well, or not)

So 99.9% to none this thing is all done by Bungie/Microsoft, if you still are iffy about it, look around, it's obviously set up to promote Halo 2.

And the date's with the countdown thing? well i'm sure they're going to release some info or something, probably nothing to get all scared about,

So seriously, enough of the discussion about what it might be, we know who's behind it, now we just have to wait until they give us more to play around with, which according to their nifty countdowns will be Tuesday July 27, and Tuesday August 17, oh, and it just happens that Halo 2 is supposed to come out Tuesday November 9th, so just some thoughts to chew on....

Current results show that of the 35 people here on Bungie.net that voted in this poll, 28 of them voted for Bungie Studios. So 80% of the 35 people that voted said that Bungie Studios was behind this ilovebees.com 'conspiracy'.


hehe, i just wanted to sound official...

yeah, it's gotta be the bees...it just never is the bees, so why would it not be them now? In any movies where insects attack, it's always ants or something. never bees...

i am scared
