First I have to apologize for this giant post. I have been looking at ilovebees.com and have seen a lot of wierd,.. segments of text scattered throughout the site. You all have probably noticed this too. They arent in posts or anything, but just overlap the text that was already on the site. I tried to group them into similar themes. Each one starts with the same "MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY". This is all of them I could find:

MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY

length: 120 meters
crew: 40
cover: pleasure yacht
ha
ir co
lor: b
r o


wn


MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
Of course the crew won't come for me if they're all dead. If they're all dead and I alone am left to tell the tale.

I'm crying, and my tears are made of sand.


MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
Ship.
Wreck.

Shipwreck.


Wrecked.
Ship.

Shipwreck.

MY HEAD IS FULL OF SAND


MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
Tricky. Can't seem to focus. Need to start on the easy ones, like "up". Move on to the compass later. Up.
Up.
Up.
...Damn it. You'd think "up" wouldn't be too much to ask. It's not like nor-nor-east or something. I need to find out where I am. Also who, but that might be less important. It's possible the two things are related. Stars, I need stars. I was always a fine sailor; they said my navigation was celestial. I think I am a fallen star. I should wish on myself. Please let me go home, please let me go home, please let me go home, please let me go home, please please please please please please please ple


MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY

First thing I should do, make a signal.

The crew will come get me if they can.

Head is full of sand and it's hard to think.

But they won't stop looking for me.


I'M HERE I'M HERE I'M HERE


I'd fight for them. I'd die for them, any

of them. I would never abandon the crew.

They won't abandon me. They will come.

They will come for me


MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY nd in about half an Hour the Boat was overset by a sudden Flurry from the North. What became of my Companions in the Boat, as well as of those who escaped on the Rock, or were left in the Vessel, I cannot tell; but conclude they were all lost.

lay down on the Grass, which was very short and soft, where I slept sounder than ever I remember to have done in my Life, and, as I reckoned, above Nine Hours; for when I awakened, it was just Day-light. I attempted to rise, but was not able to stir: For as I happen'd to lye on my Back, I found my Arms and Legs were strongly fastened on each Side to the Ground; and my Hair, which was long and thick, tied down in the same Manner. I likewise felt several slender Ligatures across my Body, from my Armpits to my Thighs.


MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY

Those are pearls that were her eyes:
Nothing of her that doth fade
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange

Eight legs (I feel them walking on me) and how many voices-three? Five? Eight?-I am become a most delicate monster indeed.

What a brave new world-sand and darkness, sand and loneliness, sand and emptiness, sand and the spider-what a brave new world, that hath such monsters in it.


MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY totally different kind of memory all of a sudden, floating up like a bubble from deep water, then *pop* on the surface of my mind. All in black and white for some reason, faded out, or just time bleaching the past like it does, time is hard that way, if you- stop. stay on task, girl. so *pop*, and I'm... playing on the beach, very young, making a castle out of sand. It's a good castle, I'm smart, I'm really smart and I'm good with my hands and the castle is beautiful but the tide is coming up, I'm making dikes and moats and outer walls, getting a little desperate here this castle means the world to me it's way better than my brother's, but the tide is rising and rising, the tide is always coming up and no matter how hard I try to save what I have made, sooner or later the spiders wash over it and melt it down I'm losing the memory already I can't see myself was I wearing a dress or overalls or ...? There's a boy on the beach next to me but a wave comes up foaming with spiders and takes away his face- oh. we're made of sand. we're both made of sand. uh-oh. I will stand firm. I will hold my edges and remember. I can do this. I know how to remember things, even through drugs and torture. seek evade reveal resist. I will not dissolve. There are people who love me. I know that even though I can't remember them. I will not be forgotten. I will not be forgotten. There are people who love me. There must be. here come the spiders.



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.



MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
I’ve been here forever.
Conscious, unconscious.
On, off. On, off.
On off on off on off
on off on off on off
on off on off on off
(tens of lines later)
off on off on off on
off on off on off on
Nobody here.
Nobody calling.
Nobody's going to come.


MAYDAY MAYDAY
All lost! To prayers, to prayers! All lost!

What, must our mouths be cold?

Arachne hung herself, you know. Take a hint already.

[many empty lines later…]
God my head hurts.



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.


MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY

"At night in the Earth's southern hemisphere, run an imaginary line along the axis of the Southern Cross to extend out about five times the length of that axis. Any landmark directly under that imaginary point will be in the general direction of south."

Any landmark.

Sandmark.

anything

anything

nothing



MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY
Getting muddled here. Sick, obviously.

Broken inside. Not thinking straight.

Got to go back to first principles.

Survive evade reveal escape.

Survive-well, I'm not dead yet.
Evade-don't want to evade. I want to be FOUND.

...unless...

...of course, if I am behind enemy lines, then constantly shouting for help wouldn't be the smartest play in the world, would it?



Well, that's all of them I could find. Hope someone can make some sense of this. Also, I hope that these messages are not a part of bungie's doing, as I would hope there is no one at bungie who is as disturbed enough to create these.
Again, sorry for the giant post.

(in response to the comment on the second "infected" site)
You're right, but for some reason this timer is a day behind the one on ilovebees. I wonder why that is.... it takes a little credibility away from the whole situation, dont ya think?

Hey i was wondering what this could mean?


"It has started, he killers are among us. August 24th, there is only one who can save us now. "


It says it on the site where you can buy that T-Shirt with the dead bees on it....O YA another theory about the shirt...

Well in 500 years the Earths population will have surpassed 9 billion. which means that at the time Halo 2 takes place....2552 the population will be 9 billion that is same number on the shirt...9 billion and in halo 2's story The Covenant come to destroy all of humankind.

On the shirt It shows a dead bee with the number 9 billion beside it

9 Billion Dead Humans...ALL OF MANKIND

that is very strange, just curious though

How many times do we have to go over this. If you don't believe me go pick up the latest EGM which has an article about esrb ratings. They don't get the finished game to rate it, they get video of the most gruesome or worst things about the game.

ok then why in there faqs it says: How are the games rated?

To get a game certified with an ESRB rating, publishers fill out a detailed questionnaire explaining exactly what's in the game, and submit it to ESRB along with actual videotaped footage of the game, showing the most extreme content and an accurate representation of the context and product as a whole. Working independently, three trained raters then view the game footage and recommend the rating and content descriptors they believe are most appropriate. ESRB then compares the raters' recommendations to make sure that there's consensus. Usually, the raters agree and their recommendation becomes final. However, when the raters recommend different ratings, additional raters may be requested to review the game in order to reach broader consensus. Once consensus on a rating and content descriptors is reached, ESRB issues an official rating certificate to the game's publisher.

-----When the game is ready for release to the public, publishers send copies of the final product to the ESRB.------ The game packaging is reviewed to make sure the ratings are displayed in accordance with ESRB standards. Additionally, ESRB's in-house game experts randomly play the final games to verify that all the information provided during the rating process was accurate and complete.
