you all should check out ilovebees.com...
countdown to wide awake and physical, can this mean something about master chief waking up...


Was it assleep before?

Wait it says 197729 days,7 hours,17 minutes and 11 seconds

That's 541+ years???

Wait we are in 2011 now,so that means...the year 2552??Lol


It's been like that since the game ended.
It counts down to the beginning of the Human/Covenant war (I believe!).

It's a timer for the activation of the AI which is focussed on in the audio logs. It supposedly went back in time, and so this is a timer till it was technically created.



the ilove bees countdown timer has been reset to the date and time in which master cheif is awoken from cryo sleep after leaving the ark.

also. this sucks, the countdown ends at noon. today june 30th and i work at 10:30 :/ so much for my shot at getting it.

Just added the fact that Destiny is clearly mentioned in the 5Gum ad, Thanks for pointing that out!

  • 06.30.2011 4:02 AM PDT

this ad has something interesting:
Destiny?

notice the bold letters in "Ever tried speed skating on dry ice?" It spells out "Destiny," and we all know that "Destiny" has been trademarked recently by Bungie. The shotcode leads to the http://testsubjectsneeded.com site. And people who registered with that site are now getting e-mails with this a message talking about being a part of a "destiny" and "taking human kind one step closer to an ultimate epiphany."

Maybe it's not for Halo 4 but maybe a hint towards all these recent trademarks made by Bungie? (Hopefully!)


I dont know if anyone already pointed this out (I didnt read all 5 pages of posts) but look above the barcode on the pack of 5 gum and theres a fly...i dont think this has anything to do with Halo 4

Self-actualization shimmers on the horizon ahead, and you are leading the way.

That was in the verification E-mail.

And I also came across http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml/

In the 'inspect element' of the web sites HTML. (chrome master race)

What is this?

I have a feeling this has NOTHING to do with Halo 4 and absolutely NOTHING to do with video games either, just gum. That would explain the "test all your senses" part of the questioneer. God, is this the most disappointing day ever or what!?

We'll find out on the hour.

I don't think it's just about gum. Well, because what company would do something like that to sell gum?

Now we wait for the people to reach the destinations.

  • 06.30.2011 12:02 PM PDT

Oh yeah It's Rayzed.

Closest destination to me is Atlanta which is a few hour drive. Man I want to participate in this so bad. Even if it is just gum.

  • 06.30.2011 12:06 PM PDT

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Some forum already has groups of people in each city ready to go, shouldn't take long.

  • 06.30.2011 12:07 PM PDT

Oh yeah It's Rayzed.

Looks like the website is down now.

Ah! I'm glad it's not just for me. I was like "Wth? Why is the website down, if the countdown just reached 0?"

Only Orlando and New York left on the screen when I send the fly down the hallway. Keeping an eye on http://flickr.com/photos/missionicefly for any photos being uploaded.

There was a looping video with some random words but the two things that caught my uh ear were 'truth' and 'I am the system. Listen.'

  • 06.30.2011 12:40 PM PDT

So has anybody uploaded the information they found in the packages in the various locations yet? Has anyone even found them yet?

- Dragon Ball/Z/GT and it's merchandise are awesome.
- All "abriged" parodies are hilarious.
- Humanity, as a whole, is stupid.
- I have asperger's syndrome
- This is the best used 20 seconds of your life
- Official helper to the Halo: Reach - The Armor You'll Be Wearing This Fall! Thread

99% sure it's just gum related.

people from each city are going to different locations within the cities and retrieving boxes that have a lock on them. The boxes have "HUMAN PRESERVATION PROJECT" printed on them, and in the box is a closed tube thingy with one of the flies that when plugged in, lights up blue/aqua. i'm thinking the next big thing that happens will be when every city is completed.

here's a flickr account with people posting their findings:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/missionicefly/

and this ARG is also on twitter (@mission_icefly)

oh, and this site seems to be updating with each completed city and strange, distorted videos are also popping up. anyone who can decipher any of the current video would be awesome!
