So, first off...I've seen this before (see my post in the topic "www.ilovebees.com"). Doesn't anybody remember that Bungie made the actual Halo 1 plot thicker than concrete? They love easter eggs (cool/funny things that are hidden). They try to tie EVERYTHING together. I -love- it.
About the GIFs being distorted randomly, if you haven't noticed, the whole site's defacing is like that. The changes are random, and...to tell you the truth, I came across the site alone in the middle of the night, after having watched a scary movie, and it freaked me out. Even tho I know it's a hoax, a funny one at that, it still scared the crap out of me. I, too, am looking over my shoulder a lot.
So from what I can decifer from the plot hints, there's a new enemy based on bees. A secondary enemy, like the flood was.
Another thing:
I agree with the date hints and stuff for the early release. That would be...holy crap...sweet. I wonder if my reserve for the collectors edition will make me wait till November 9th? Heheh
Overall, this thing is totally sweet. Not only is it hinting for plots and secrets and other things like you guys have mentioned, you also realize it gets the people off the tails of Bungies secrets!
And, no use asking Bungie people about the beesite. Knowing Bungie, not only do the people that don't need to know NOT know, the people that DO know, won't tell anything. I like it that way. It's a puzzle trail that Bungie has left us to solve...Let's have some fun with it.
PS: The sourcecode is definately worth a look at. There's some funny stuff in there, including the META tags...
