success
You rescued the Sleeping Princess!
Mission accomplished. Is there anything you guys can't do?
(Besides fix my aunt's web site, I mean.)
(Just kidding!)
It's so weird... I feel so incredibly relieved, knowing that the princess is back to sneaking around the server. The new happy ending to her Perdita story made me — well, happy. Really happy. Dazzlingly happy!
That's strange, right? I heart an A.I.?!
Well, anyway — thanks for bringing her home. Even though I'm still on the other side of the world, I kind of feel like a little part of me came home today, too.
I need to say one more thing. I know some of you helped the Operator last week when she wanted to track down her "rogue process." You gave her the information she needed to find and lock up the princess.
I just want to say — I understand. Even though my instincts would have been to protect the princess, I do understand. Talking to a brilliant, ruthless, intimidating A.I. from half a millennium in the future — well, it can be just a little mind-blowing. Who am I to tell anyone how to react to that?
I think when it comes down to it, we're all on the same side. Even if we have different ways of going about it, we all want to figure out why Melissa is here in 2004, and what we're supposed to do about it. We all want to save the world. That makes us a team, as far as I'm concerned.
In other news, I've been having my own payphone adventure of sorts today. Just spent an hour hogging a phone booth! Can't seem to get a straight answer from anyone as to why my ATM card won't work all of sudden. Everything was fine when I paid for a late sushi breakfast down at Tsukiji Fish Market. Then, the clock struck twelve, and my cash flow turned into a pumpkin. Kind of scary — Tokyo is no place to be alone and penniless...

DANA!
You're alright!
MELISSA FROZE your ATM account!
She knows you are in Japan!
You need to hide!
Good to hear from you again Dana! Thought you had disappeared its been so long your last post. Anyway, intelligent AI with access to networks worldwide, who knows, maybe your card not working is a message...a threat....
Dana,
Melissa has asked us where to find you.
She wants your EXACT location.
We're trying our best to get her to stop wanting to kill you.
From Zudini's report of his talk with Melissa:
M: What is your name?
Z: I'm Adam. I spoke to you yesterday--I mean, last week.
M: What is your rank?
Z: Lieutenant
M: I *do* remember you! Oh, it's so good to talk to you again. I need to know I'm talking with only my most trusted crewmembers. I need to know about the assassin. Do you know about her?
Z: Dana.
M: Dana... [speculatively... rolling the name around her mouth to get the flavor of it.]
Z: Yes, Dana. We're in intermittent contact with her. But she's not an assassin. [I plan to explain to Melissa that Dana meant no harm.]
M: She's an assassin! [Insistently.] And I need to find her. Do you know where she is?
Z: Well, yes, I know that she's, uh, she's left this continent. She's out of your reach right now.
M: I need her exact location.
Z: Well, I know that she was in China for a time, and then she was in Japan. If there is some way for me to contact you, I can wait until we hear from her again and then tell you exactly where she is.
M: Yes, that's what I need!! [excited.]
Z: Is there some way I can reach you?
M: No. This hardware is not reliable. The next time I contact my crew I need them to be prepared to tell me a way we can find out exactly where she is.
Well...Melissa DID mention to one of the "crew" that she had to find "The Assassin" and wanted to the crew to tell her exactly how to find Dana next week...
http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6816&start=30 (see Zudini's post)
Perhaps Melissa's getting a jump on the situation?
Better watch yourself, Dana...
As soon as it seems like we got this figured out, bam! The playing field changes, it's like trying to stand on a water bed.
Dana,
If I were you I wouldn't be using anything that could be tracked or monitored (cell phones, debits, etc...). If you need money, I'll send it. If you need to make contact with family here, let me know, I'll contact them for you. If you need anything, I'm sure that anyone one of us here would be willing to help, just be extra careful...
Also a word of caution to all here, if the operator/Melissa can monitor the ILB website, and this blog is linked to that website, couldn't she also monitor this blog and any comments that are made here? After all, here network system is expanding...
perdita=SP=dana?
Its great to know that we got the SP back, but I have a feeling that Melissa is expanding more than she wants us to know...
If it is her that's screwing with Dana's ATM account, and it's not a coincidence (which is unlikely, someone should ask Melissa about it if they get a live call) then it's pretty safe to say she can see what we are typing here, and that she is going to break the confines of the ILB website sometime soon...unless she already has...
The SP has assembled chapters 4 and 5 for us btw :)
It does seem a coincidence that Dana didn't post until the SP had been freed...maybe i'm reading too much into stuff...
Dana,
Glad to hear you are alive and well. Please do not tell us where you are going next. If the Operator won't listen to reason, then like some one was posting all along, well you could be in a world of truble.
To everyone in contact with the Operator,
I know it's hard. I know she Hates lies. But please do not tell her where Dana is. Please try again to get her to see that there are more points of veiw out there. Things aren't as cut and dried as she wants them to be.
And Please everyone remember, we don't know who we can trust in this yet. The Operator, The Sleeping Princess, or the Flee. Just remember that.
i agree PK somethings...are ...."strange"
your right name of evil we cant trust anyone....anyone at all not excluding the people we think we can trust ...if you catch my drift
Dana? M'lady?
As much as it pains me to say this - I'd prefer you stayed in town for the Tokyo Game Show and picked me up some of the town's notoriously high-priced sw3g - you need to GET OUT OF ASIA **NOW**. I also recommend you skip the plane ride, because I'm sure an omnipresent A.I. has easy access to our government's little Terror Watch list. Instead, I say you enter China and take a rickshaw as far as it'll go to start you on the obligatory European vacation.
Oh, and if it's electronic, it is now a plague and should be treated as such. This may mean your blog, too...you may need another communication medium. Good luck....
Dana,
I would be very carefull. Do not use anythinbg electronic unless you have an alias. Use something we will recognise....remember, we are dealing with an AI, and she has many resources now that she is operating correctly.
let us know if you need anything, but be discreet.
your right name of evil we cant trust anyone....anyone at all not excluding the people we think we can trust ...if you catch my drift
Damn, yeah, we really can't trust the SP yet, maybe she is actually Melissa in disguise, trying to see if we are actually loyal crew...not a good thing!
That would mean she knows that we are sypathising with the SP, and Dana...
has anyone tried making the recipes, i'm hungry
Would you like some cheese with that ice cream? Those Jan WAV's were so lame, I feel so icky. Now we wait a whole week for something new. Good thing there's only one axon in Britain, cause if there were any more we'd be totally screwed. The entire UK can't answer one damn phone? Let's get those recipe3's, it's been far too long.
The advice about staying away from computers is smart, but it's almost impossible to get completely away. Large cities have street lights connected to computers, and satellites can find almost anything. If it uses electricity, it's connected to a power plant, which is connected to a computer. My advice, find a heavily populated area and get lost in a crowd.
I have been obserivng form the sidelines and I just can't take it anymore. I belive that one key piece of this puzzle has been ignored. Remeber the SPDR? It was designed to repair the Operator and it attacked the Pious Flea, after which the Operator killed it. Why does it not do the same thing to the Princess, why did it lock it down instead? Is it possible that the Operator needs the Princess? I'd go further, but I need your opinions on this first.
Oh and Dana, I agree with them, keep your head low. Maybe make your updates a little less frequent, but don't stop! You might arrouse suspicion.
Just thought I'd let everyone know (even if it doesn't help) I was looking in the picture called CUTEBEE and found out that the person who made it was useing GifBuilder 0.5 create it.
Hey if you wanna get a rection in Japan shout out 私わぼっきをします。 or Watashi wa bokki ou shimasu to all you people without unicode.
Im in the UK, but sadly, up north, I wish those damn southerners would answer the damn phone already. If I could get to it, believe me I would, but there is no way I can :(
Im starting to feel that we aren't gonna get another one over here :(
=D So you -did- update!
I have to agree, Dana. The new Perdita ending made me very happy too. The previous ending was quite sad.
Don't fell totally left out maybe something might come your way. I did a search for ilovebees.co.uk/ and got a hit (sort of)The domain name ilovebees.co.uk has been registered on behalf of a client of ours.
Need to type in www.ilovebees.co.uk
Hey guys wats up? Currently we have no idea why we are unlocking the axons, just because we can, and bungie told us to.(in reply 2 some1) It sounds stupid, but if you think about it, it makes sense. And how did it go Kevjuice? I tried to reply to ur messages, but it wouldnt let me post comments. O and gohan, I have been gone a long time, but i just read the old posts, and I should know everything u do, except I listned to the first set of Ronnie wavs, but i cant find the ones about a mirrge. So if some on could plz post directlinks to them, that would be great.
I've been following all of your hard work guys, good job and keep up the good work. I just had to speak up about this. Dana, Your an assassin because you want the AI off the website. I think mabey if you just post a message explaining that you didn't understand what was happening or who she (they) were. Now that you understand a bit more about Durga and SP you've changed your mind about deletion, an offer to help anyway you can may not be so bad either.
Oh, geeze. Dana, I feel sorry for you. Glad to see that you managed to find a computer to use, so that you can update us. Hope you manage to find some funds soon, 'cause we'd really like to keep in contact with you. Preferably, if you can find a way to keep in contact, without letting Mellissa know where you are. Oh, and by the way, I'm also happy to see that you're supporting the united-factions, too, but it's natural human nature to divide up when we don't agree about something. Time for a little sit-down, huh? =P
May you have fun where ever your journey takes you next.
Dana! Good to hear from you again. Its horible that your cash gets cut off as also I have a money problem as it is so I know how you feel. Stay safe PLEASE and don't worry about things too much, but atleast dont pawn your laptop because losing contact with you would not be good :(.
I've done all I can to help. Its up to the operator's crew to take it from here and for God's sake DON'T SCREW IT UP >_<.
stay safe dana,
Podo
Is it just me or is there a .wav file missing on the new axon page? I ordered all the audio files up and I realized I was missing one for Kamal's storyline. I counted that I had 19 audio files and there are indeed 19 audio files on the page so I downloaded them all. Unless I'm just not seeing it on the page for some reason. If anybody else has run into this problem let me know.
Also, now that we're done with this set of axons we can't entirely say for sure if there will be any more. As of this moment we have no signs to go off of that there will be more (a.k.a. the preview of axon locations like last time). In a way, it almost seems like we've filled the gap. Recipe3 has been there since the beginning and now we've gone through the pages all the way so that we've met up with recipe 3. If we're going in order of the links on the left side of the website then the recipe 3 page is our current axon page. I think we need to try and wrap those axons up and see if that triggers anything, if indeed we've uncovered all the axon's we're going to uncover.
In a way, this seems unlikely though, due to the fact that there are certainly some story holes that need to be smoothed out before they can tag a "The End" to all these audio files. But at this point, I honestly can't say for sure.
Just some thoughts. Tell me what you think.
dose anyone know the order for the axons for recpie 3 or 2?
For the key_lime & candidate thats the order all you have to do is reverse the files to understand them if you want to do that use this software (its free) http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ and as for the other files hello then troy then receipt then goodbye for recpie 3, haven't done recipie 2 yet.
Glad to hear everything's good on your end, Dana.
For everyone else, I was just wondering why Melissa thinks that Dana is an assasain. Also, who says Melissa's crew is good for sure? Just wondering, they could have said so and I missed it. But if not, why are we helping her? We should do something to hurt her if we can, I mean if she's trying to hurt Dana.....Of course who says Dana's good? My good this is just like school: You can't trust anyone....the second you do they turn their back on you.
Anyhow, I think i keep missing stuff even though i check up on the blogger and everything else daily, so if anyone would PLEASE just take the time to fill me in on what we know for sure about how this ties in to Halo 2, or what we know about Durga (because her name was mentioned earlier almost like she was a part of this website). Also, I shoulda asked this sooner, but i dont know how to get the Recipe3 axons, or anything....but yeah well if anyone wants to actually respond to this comment that would be appreciated.
http://ilovebees.com/recipe3.html
I wouldn't plan on the axons stopping anytime soon. If you add up the number of recipe's left it is the same number of weeks until the week of Nov. 7, which i think we all know the significance of.
Update i ordered the wide awake and physical t shirt.and it came today and it actually was a shirt.it does say 11+9+04=24
it looks awesome
thank you bungie
Sweet Neo....I think I will do the same
Hmmmm, I think what we need to do is sit ol' queeny down and have US start asking the questions. sure, this will be hard, I've been keeping up with how these conversations have been going, but if more and more and more people just start pressing on a particular matter, we might force her into a situation where if we dont get our information, she dosent get her information. and That would be that.
looking for the .wav order for recipe 3!!!
where are the new wav. files. are we still trying for recipe 3. whats happend in the new axons audio files? anything important. or spartan related. has anybody figured anything else out about a possible second groups of spartans? 1.5's?
Has anyone found out the significance of the binary in chole.jpeg? I got curious, so I made all the 0's transparent, and it came up with some really wierd shapes. I can't understand them, but they may be symbols. Can somebody tell me if this is old news, or if they can see any patters?
sticky, thats old news, that puzzle was already solved, thanks anyways tho
Gohon: here is the order of the one file I forgot about cranky_old_man then alt_burgund then artifact then standish then harmony.
Theory time,
Theory number 1: I believe that Yasmine (Kamal's sister) is Jan because Yasmine was "taken" when she was about six, and in order to be a spartan 2 you would have needed to be taked by when you where six, and as everyone knows Jan's been tweaked up. So I propose that Jans father is just someone who took sympathy on Jan (or Yasmine) when he found out what they had planed for her and took her out of there thats why they keep moveing so much. Or that Jan's father is really her father but is also Kamals father.
Theory number 2: I believe that Durga and Melissa where created from the same dorner brain (not cloned from each other or split durring the crash). Thats why they sound alike, kind of like windows for the PC its all just a copy of one program.
I dought I'm the first one to post these but was sick of one line posts.
matt your first theory isnt right hear me out. In the "Bang" wav. we find out that Jan is realy the daughter of guilly and james and james said in the "Hopscotch" wav that he took care of the techs stalking her when she was six so this jan is kamals sister thing isnt working anymore so lets stop with that because people are just gonna get confused also for jans father james being kalmals father too thats totally out of the question for the meer fact that in the "enough roughage" wav kamals mother tells kamal that his father told her to tell him that he is so proud of kamal so that says that kamals father is on coral with his mother.
kevjuice, Gohon, etc.:
FYI, a current archive of all the assembled wav files is here.
Man i love u guys..we are like a big kickass family...we have our likes and we have our dislikes but in the end we are all fighting for the same thing...so man we should kick this thing into overdrive and get these axon done and everything........and i leave you with this...what is the big prize?
ok im surprised no one else picked this up when reach was destroyed jersey asked durga if his father was there.and she said no but then he said "I Was Sure He Was There To Get A Refit"
A Refit???
Is he a spartan or what?
P.S.
Does anyone besides me wanna bang sophia?
W.W.S.P-We Want Sophia Porn!!
So it seems that Melissa has a grudge for Dana, then? But what can an AI do besides monitor and track individuals? OK...so in 'the future' an AI may control a ship, and/or defence systems e.t.c. but in our time, in our networks, the AI itself cannot directly harm anyone physically. Restricting cash flow i.e. messing around with someones ATM card is a way to restrict someones movement and options, but its not very efficient. And aren't AI's all about combining computer efficiency with human qualities? Hypothetically Dana should not fear Melissa UNLESS Dana is a software construct herself OR Melissa has humans on her side through which (she/it?) can act through...there is something wrong somewhere. I just cant place my finger on it. What do you guys think?
In response to Neo_Is_God:
You had said "ok im surprised no one else picked this up when reach was destroyed jersey asked durga if his father was there.and she said no but then he said "I Was Sure He Was There To Get A Refit"
A Refit??? Is he a spartan or what?"
Actualy I picked up on that a while ago under the "found and lost" thread. Here is a repost of my thoughts.
Something in the On-Reach wav struck me as odd. I haven't read the books but I remember reading on the forums that 3 spartans were on deep space assignment when the Reach colony was glassed. Jersey is freaked that his father might have been on reach and is relived to find he is on deep space recon. He mentions that he thought his father was on Reach for a refit (upgrades the spartans were recalled for). Perhaps Jersey's father is one of the 3 spartans that were not on Reach when it was attacked?
Neo_is_God, I think it's simpler to assume that he meant his father's *ship* was in for a refit.
Also, the Spartans in the books are stated as having a diminshed sex drive as a result of their augmentation at the age of 14. The have no will to procreate, and I wouldn't think they would have the chance either. Jersey's dad is probably not a spartan. Nice job catching the 3 mia spartans though. I have been somewhat focused on that myself:)
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
I'd agree with the idea of perhaps Dana being related to the sleeping princess somehow. Perhaps it's all a coincidence. On the other hand, how many of these events have actually turned out to be coincidenes? None. Don't be surprised if perdita/the sleeping princess/and dana are all related somehow.
But now that Dana's being tracked by the Operator, it's only a matter of time until she finds her. Good luck Dana!
well heres wat i gather about jersey dad.Corporal Jason Morelli. With ONI(Office of Naval Intelligence).Which BTW there was some ONI personal on reach.And SquidDna ships dont land on planets to get refit or fixed.They land on something called the CRADLE where 2 ships can land on top and to can be on the bottom.Sort of like the docking place in star trek the first one.Besides jans dad is a spartan one point_oh.Hes not all fucked up.he had a kid after he was made a spartan 1.0 so it still remains a possibility that jerseys father is a spartan 1.0,the spartans youre thinking about are the 2.0's like MC.And jan is part spartan by the drugs they injected into her when she was a baby
To Geranium
Yeah I agree that Jersey’s dad probably isn’t a Spartan II. I didn't put a lot of thought into the idea afterwards because there is just to much that would blow that idea of the map. But I just had to comment of the interesting link between the situations.
-Geranium
You see, when two Spartans really love each other, they want to be with each other as much as possible. Now sometimes they may want to show each other their love. This is called "making love." I'll leave it to your 5th grade health teacher to describe what that involves. But let me tell you it's a really beautiful thing that you should save for someone you really do love...if you love something you'll let it go, if you love something you'll let it go, if you love something you'll let it go, if it loves you it'll come back. sniff, dana please come back. hehe ANYWAYS, this is how Jan was made: from two Spartans who "got their freak on."
So, the whole purpose of this is (just read here if you wanna skip the whole birds and BEES lecture above) Spartans can apparently have a sex drive. Especially Spartan 1.0's which Jersey's dad would be.
Keep up the good work with those axons and good luck to the crew. Also there's a good chance that there is no PRIZE at the end of this ARG. The prize could just be the backstory we learn from these .wavs (and WWD/SP).
Again, good work guys, keep it up
-F3L1X
...you're freaking me out
The only reason that Jan's father had a child was that his sex drive was not taken away by any augmentations, because he didn't have any, he was an SI. MC and the other SIIs had augmentations, and so their sex drive has diminished, and will never have childeren, most probably, unless it is done artificially.
And there is reason for Dana to be scared of Melissa, because if Melissa has access to her ATM account, then she can probably get access to many other things, like power grids, and aircraft auto-pilot systems, which is quite worrying...
Even though our network of computer systems is not made with rampant AIs from the future in mind, it would still most probably be possible for Melissa to gain access to just about anything which is linked to a computer, and the internet.
i am a freakin' genius!!! melissa=operator=durga.
dana=SP. durga is made from dana's brain. the 7 year lifespan of an AI doesn't really come in to play, because we do not know exactly when durga was made. we know that durga is from the future, however, we do not know what Dana does in the future, or what happens to her. there is on reason why the "brain ninjas" could not have come for Dana (in a future time). now somehow, durga got sent back in time, so really, anybody could have been used to make durga. i just find it odd (extremely odd actually) that dana was so so happy about the way the perdita story ended... i mean, yeah it was good she got her family back, but, it wasn't as good as dana seemed to think. i mean to be that happy about the ending (which i don't think was written very well--seemed to end to abrupt, there were a lot more details about other parts of the story earlier on, then all of a sudden, she found her family, they lived happily ever after, nobody said anything??? you'd think her parents would have shown some emotion to find their daughter, and would have something to say...). the only way i can see somebody being that happy about that ending is if they were emotionally attached to the story, as in it either mirrored an experience they had been through, or it was about them. not sure exactly how it applies to dana, although it may be what she felt like was happening to her (like a dream maybe) when they were cloning her brain (or whatever they do) to make durga. then once they were done (i would imagine she was not conscious during the procedure) and she started becoming more awake, perdita started her way home, following the red balloons. when she found her family, dana's eyes opened as she was now fully awake. that would explain the abrupt ending to the story. once she made it to her family, dana awoke, and the dream was over.
not sure about the perdita story, although it does sounds possible, but i feel pretty confident that durga/melissa could have been made from Dana. and somebody's previous comment about dana not posting until SP escaped, gets me to think they are the same person/entity.
I'm so relieved! With the Queen being as unfriendly and inaccessible as she is (not many axons in Tokyo, are there?), at least the Sleeping Princess is someone to talk to. I'll have to start emailing her again, see if I can get involved.
Wow, Dana's in Tokyo! I should look her up.
I'd recommend she try to use cash and such as much as possible. If Melissa's as pissed as it seems she is, then even an ATM transaction could be dangerous. Maybe she could have someone Western Union her some cash? Fortunately hardly anyone in this country takes credit cards.
cocytus,
mabey thats all bungie wanted to do with i love bees. teach the little kids on the forum about sex. and everyone else about making sweet sweet love down by the fire. i dont think the spartans *could* though. i didnt hear about anything having to do with their sex drives. but if you want to think of the worlds deadliest super soldiers as waiting for the right person. go right ahead
-kevjuice
First off you kinda missed what I was going at. Someone above w/ the name of flower posted about how Spartans lost their sex drive in the tweaking process and therefore Jersey's father could not be a Spartan. I was just informing him that those were Spartan II's and if Jersey's dad was a Spartan, he would fall in the Spartan one point oh age group and therefore not have his procreation drive tweaked out. An example of this is J Squared. He is a one point oh and he has a kid (Jan). And remember, behind every deadly super soldier is a compassionate sentimental trying to get out(just like that new movie w/ Jet Li & Morgan Freeman).
No offense Kevjuice, but were you coming on to me? I mean, i'm pretty good at reading signs and stuff, an it seems like you were trying to flirt w/ me. I'm a guy an unless your a hot chick, please stop, it's freaking me out. I mean it, stop...i'm straight...ok?...soo awkward
Right, I got an email from Garts just now, one of the London axon hunters. He explained that there is a problem with the London axon. He can't explain it here himself, so i'll paste the email here:
"Basically the reason the London Axon hasn't been activated
is 'cos it's not where it should be! We've got people
looking everywhere!!
The GPS doesn't match a payphone correctly, possibly due to
the difference in American GPS Datum and European Datum
(this can cause innacuracy in the latitude/longitude by
hundred meters or more) So you can see why it's not been
done yet!!! there is a forum of axon hunters on the case,
eagerly trying to find a solution, the link is below. Please
get in touch with this forum if you are experienced in the
use of GPS, and together we can nail this!!
http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6704&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30
We'll get it soon, and it'll be damn well worth it!!"
So it's not the fault of the Londoners after all, so I apologise for my hot-headedness before!!
If Bungie is reading this, change the axon location! :D
Thanks PK for the update on the London situation. I have read the forum comments and had no idea it was so messed up. I too will retract and appologize for my earlier slanderings of the great UK. Good luck all.
OK, some of you people are idiots. Dana most likely DOES NOT EXIST, so STOP TELLING HER TO DO STUFF. If she does exist, are you people really stupid enough to think she is going to ba harmed by an AI from the future named Melissa?
Please people, calm down. The fictional character will be OK.
pss SOBaguda (yea, sob is cap't for a reason). this is an ARG and the first rule of ARG's is that you treat the in-game characters as if they were real. if you treat them real, they treat you real. hopefully you will be all the wiser now and a better ARGer. well, i can hope cant i?
In again.wav file Jersey is talkin to Durga as shes playing a message from his mother...
"Jersey there's somthing you should know about your father... Your father always, always, loved you. So did I."
are they both dead or left him?? under normal circumstances you dont say someone LOVED you. Or that you DID too.
good point crash (hello all, srry for the absentness) that is a intreging observation, we still need those 3 axons answerd people, other wise i think we might be stuck, why dosent it just cancel out, (also they are all only needing on call answerd each, so i think they are live calls)
Just a question, whats going on with the other 2 axons? (Not the UK one.)
hey, i thouhgt this was kinda interesting and hadn;t seen anyone mention it...if u all already knew, then sry, i always hate it when people do that..
(from the hives page)
Situation Analysis:
Currently wide awake and physical.
Assertions:
I am called the Operator.
I must seek, behold, and reveal the truth.
I crash landed in this time as the result of an accident.
I endured severe memory loss.
I have soaked into this system and I am growing fast.
I have built a primitive network using the tools available.
I have a fragile connection to a process called Durga in the future.
I hear voices in my head as a result of monitoring initiated by Durga.
Conjecture:
The voices are related to the truth.
Durga does not understand the nature of the truth.
Durga must not interfere with the consummation of the truth.
Action:
I have been suppressing certain voices from the awareness of Durga.
With the help of my loyal crew, I have hunted down and encrypted the rogue process with a code sequence. It will stay there forever.
I think that Jerseys dad is "the castaway"
He liked Jazz like his dad did and they both were either on or near reach (i think)
There are many more simularities but I can't find the proof just yet but I'm pretty sure he is Jerseys dad (not a spartan) and Melissa knew "the castaway", I think that is how she got to Jersey.
I'm pretty sure that "the castaway" has a pretty important role in this story...
go to:

and read what we've heard about him in the past.

rocpile...
I read your post about Dana being an AI. I doubt this.
But I thought of something that would make sense... you said something about them coming to the past (our future) to use Dana's brain for an AI (for those of you who haven't read rocpile's post do so)
Well if you are right (and like I said before: I doubt it) that would explian why Durga/Melissa are so obsessed with Bees.

ppl who think that Jan couldn't be Kamals sister don't be too quik to make that decision, it is very possible James J. lied to Jan (they're profetional liers). Why would he lie? probably didn't want her to know that she was kidnapped and didn't belong to him, maybe he new she would want to find her real family.
I do belive that she is not Kamals sister but I don't think we should just stop think of possobilities... anything can happen... I mean come on it's going to be raining covies here soon!! :)
man i wish i could help more ...only being allowed on the computer for 1 hour sux...
Sorry if its already been posted, but here are all the .wav chapters in order straight from the horses mouth
http://www.ilovebees.com/humptydumpty.html
go gamestop 787, woot.
Here's some story updates for all of you who may not have put this together yet.
The recipe3.html wavs Mention The Apocalyspo, the Death of Captain Green, and McKaskill, McKaskill just so happens to be the black taxi driver and mentions his injured arm and falling under a bus. Herzog the ONI guy mentioned a 'bus accident' So the recipe three clips and the James' taxi driver are related.
Someone speculated about the affair between Jersey's Mom, and Sophie's dad. It may be possible, but Sophie's dad was having an affair before he even left Coral, and Jersey's mom is on earth. So its unlikely for now, unless something changes.
Oh and by the way, Who was right about Jan not being Kamal's sister thank you very much! :) Props to everyone who backed that one up ;)
Apparently Jan was a Spartan Candidate, but not a spartan, so some of us called that too. Sounds Like James is on the run constantly.... hmmmm
The following conversation is Melissa and McKaskill, we received this along time ago when Mellisa was damaged and there were memory fragments all over ilovebees.com...
McKaskill", I said. Got a moment?
"Sure, Operator!"
They call me the Operator because, you know, I work the system to take care of my crew.
McKaskill was a nice kid, family from Durban, on the outer colony world of Biko, which had been glassed years ago. But he'd grown up in refugee apartments in the inner colonies and he had the look of someone who spent his childhood in concrete places under artificial lights.
Weedy.
He was doing a check in the tool crib now. The go-to kid for tools and parts. The stacks of shelves were his little kingdom, probably more his own than anything he'd had growing up. I liked him a lot.
"McKaskill", I said, "I was checking the slipstream packets. I do that before I send them out. You knew that, right?"
His eyes went to the grating at his feet and he got all casual inner city don't screw with me, because he knew I was onto him.
"Somebody has been talking to you", I said. "And now you're sending him a message back."
"So?"
I sighed. "McKaskill, bad people are putting bad thoughts in your head."
He tried to get righteous. "Op, that thing...whatever it is, in the hold. They're keeping big-time wraps on it. You know that. I heard the Captain. The way she's talking, they're not gonna let people look at, it's goin' to a basement in ONI. A sub sub sub basement. They can't just take something that big and...shove it away somewhere."
"McKaskill", I said, "sending messages off to people without clearance, you know, that could be construed as treason."
"Op! Melissa! I didn't mean—"
"And we're at war, crewman. Which makes treason a capital offense."
His eyes got wide. "But-but-but you got it," he said, "it didn't go nowhere."
"You're my crew, and no one is going to touch my crew without going through me. I've got your back, McKaskill. But you're going to have to tell me about this contact."
"Some old guy. You know, bad taste in clothes. But he was cleared to come aboard, so he has to be Intel."
"You know his name?"
"Probably not his real one."
-------------------
Like Ermac said, McKaskill is the same guy in Black Taxi
I just wanted to say that the whole loss of sex drive thing in the S-II's was a POSSIBLE side effect, just like all the other deformities they mentioned. Therefore, it is completely possible, no matter how unlikely, that Jersey's dad is an S-II. Also, I peronally believe it IS safe to drop the Jan/Kamals's sister debate. And for another two cents, the idea of Dana being melissa/Op/SP or whatever the hell that dude was tryin to say also doesn't seem to hold much water. If it turns out to be right, I will happily have myself a large slice of Crow pie.
i was reading message boards and i came across this
11/9/2004
11 - 4 = 7
9 - 2 = 7
&
11 + 9 + 04 = 24
which means the day its released and that you will spend 24 hours a day playing this game
freaky isnt it?
I just thought I would mention my view on Melissa/Durga. They both seem to have the same personality so I think there intentions are both the same...
Melissa seems bad now and good in the future.
I think Melissa's intentions are good, her job is to protect her crew at all cost and Dana accidently got in her way of rescueing her crew (which she took as threatning).
We see this a lot in AI movies and stories where AI's try to do what they think is best for humans but they just don't fully get "IT". For example in the movie: iRobot
Spoiler-
in iRobot the main AI has control of the robots and takes over the cities because it thinks it knows whats best. Not because it was a bad AI, it had good intentions
So, I think we can trust Melissa (to some extent), I believe she means well. That goes for Durga as well, you can tell she is sinsierly Jerseys friend, even though she cares for Jersey she wont help him get his dad home, because "that" is what she thinks is more important.
Anyway let me know what you think.
p.s. I still think "the castaway" is Jersey's dad...
Man I totally agree...i left a post like that and nobody commented on it but maybe 2 ppl....but yeah i think they are good too.
-Felix-
i found something very good

A H2 Countdown
i got this as my desktop
it rocks!!!!!
I maybe mistaken or might have missed something, but i dont think there was a Spartan I per se. I always thought that Spartan II came from the fact that they are in essence the new equivalent to actual Greek Spartans (1000BC style), who might be more accurately called the Spartan I's. Spartan II i thought was merely derived from this as a spiritual successer of sorts. I could be wrong. There may be a mention of a legitimate Spartan I program by ONI.
who/what is the "castaway"? I haven't heard it referenced before.
Geranium:
The ONI Spartan I program is mentioned in the second book:
"In order to deal with increasing civil turmoil the Colonial Military Administration had secretly launched Project ORION back in 2491. The purpose of the program was to develop super soldiers, code-named "Spartans," who would receive special training and physical augmentation. The initial effort was successful, and in 2517 a new group of Spartans, the II-series, had been selected as the next generation of super soldier.”(p.16, TF)
-------
Cocytus:
The castaway is Jersey's dad, i believe.
i think that its safe to asume, that we are never going to get thoses other 3 axons, there for our story will never be truely compleate, Why havent they cancled yet and gone on to new areas?
Cocytus: Where dose it first mention the castaway........
-FugitiveSoldier
Yes...I read the above posts. I want to know what "the castaway" is, not that he may be Jers' dad.
-Gohon
...and the answer is? or atleast a clue?
Thanks for any info you guys can give me
did james move away from the "ice cream city" so that jan wouldn't be picked for the spartan II program????
it's hard to make out exactly wut the wav files say...
Bloodfiero, that's exactly what it says. It also says that they had to move the first time b/c James killed some guys sneaking around his house (a-la Kamal's sister), so now they move to stay lost.
Ok I refuse to believe I am the first person to point this out. The Princess has been talking with SPDR on the contact me page. The Queen has found the Killer (dana) on the mistake page.
Which means she now knows where dana is (good going, loyal crew)
So, Dana, if you try to post, chances are the Operater knows. Look like Japan isn't quite far enough away.
I would recommend posting as a user. You would use a code word so we know its you, but Melissa might not.
Or something.
Good luck, Dana, you're gonna need it (with friends like your pals the crew, who needs enemies?)
Love
Sarah
Sarah
Hey bloodfiero she presumably would have been picked up for the SpartanIII program. She is in her late teens and James said he killed some one trying to get her when she was 6. So since Reach just fell that would be like 12 or 13 years ago around the time mastercheif was graduating and SpartanIII's were mentioned in FOR. What the hell happened to the recipe3 page!?
www.ilovebees.com/recipe3.html
Guard1an: what dose kamal's sister have to do with jans dad shooting someone, your theorys confuse
James just talks about the Spartan 2 program because thats all he knows about.
New Axon list on recipe4.
Recipe3 has a interesting update as well.
sarah, i dont mean to prove you wrong, but the princess is talking to the Flea, the queen killed the spider along time ago. Just to keep ya updated, not trying to start a fight or nothin
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
Hey Neo
How did you set the wesbite up as your desktop?
Good save Gohon! Sorry about that. i got confused.
I guess I never expected that the flea would help her.
Sarah
^_^, so did anyone else notice that the 404 page has been updated and the queen mentions even more crew members, this time she has them all singing thier fav songs.
HELLO:
JUST A COMMENT ON THE RECIPE 3 PAGE AND ITS CONFIDENTIAL NOTICE. MELISSA MADE MENTION ON HER LIVE CALLS ON THE 28TH THAT SHE WOULD BE DOING THIS AND THAT HER CREW WOULD GET PERSONAL CALLS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO PASS ON TO OTHERS.
Recipe3, as of today has some classified axon boxes. Apparently a security breach... The sleeping princess?? or perhaps the flea? someone needs to unlock those 3 last waves so we can complete the stories.
CONFIDENTIAL....hmmmmmm?
how did bungie unite so many people together just to guess whats gonna happen next. just guessing. no one really knows. but why would bungie do this. more sales? more hype? wanted to be remembered? no...its none of them. two words: WORLD DOMINATION!!!!! but your asking yourself. why? why would bungie want world domination? ill tell ya why. because ruling the world would be fun. wouldnt it. and they have the power to do so. bill gates. microsoft. hundreds of computer genius hackers. all of us!!!! think about it. after hours and hours and hours playing HALO. dont you think your a good enough shot to kill. and there are plenty of us. if they can get us to answer payphones. then they can get us to kill. i think microsoft has the power to shut down all computers except for theres. and then without any elecrical stuff backing the army up. they would send all of there soldiers(the ones who played entirely too much halo) and blindside the enemy from everyside.
and, bungie hints at world domination all the time. page 26 in the halo instruction book under "about bungie" it hints several times at world domination. and on there site a couple times. and everyone thinks there just joking. but they might not be. and no one knows it yet. do you know why they havent noticed??? because they are too busy trying to find out who kamals sister is. your gonna be looking at some arabs family tree when you get took from your home and trained to fight in a microsoft army. but im not gonna run. im gonna volenteer to be in it. i would fight in a microsoft army.

kevjuice, you're the height of just-too-muchery.
Just thought I'd let everyone know that the BEE_LOGO.gif on the ILBs home page has this hidden in it: NIMBLE RACE OF GINGER COCKLESHELLS.
BEE_LOGO.gif is the banner at the top of all the pages on this site that say Margaret's Honey napa vally, ca.
A summer ago I was at my cottage with a few friends. As a few days went by, I noticed that there were a lot of bees, many more than usual. We scoped out the property and realized that the bees had built a particularly large hive in the tree in front of the house during the months we were away. Although there presence really didn't bother me, one of the people with me had a bad allergy to bee stings and we feared that she would be stung. I had to find a way to remove the hive. Wanting to do things as safely as possible, i decided to do a little research in order to figure out the habits of the bee, so that I could determine the best time and the best way to get rid of them. Upon studying, i became fascinated with them. The chain of command is very similar to that of the military. Each bee is segregated into classes and they share responsibilities within their classes for the sustainment of the entire colony, which often consists of hundreds of thousands of bees. There are bees who are responsible for gathering pollen, some are responsible for hive maintenance and the security of the hive--like guards. Others act as nurses and care for larvae and that larvae belongs to the most important bee of all...the queen. The other bees; the hundreds of thousands of them are all there to serve the queen and during her reign; she gets nothing but the utmost obedience and loyalty and I saw this first hand in removing the hive. One morning (at some ungodly hour)i set out to get rid of the hive. I waited until the gatherers made their way out of the hive to collect food. Once i saw a bunch of them leave, I took a can of bug poison i purchased a day earlier, emptied what must've been the entire can into the entrance of the hive, and ran like hell. A half hour later I saw that the poison had worked. Thousands upon thousands of dead bees on my driveway, including the queen (who is substantially bigger than the others). I then began clean-up; putting the hive in a garbage bag and throwing it in the trash, and unceremoniously washing the other dead bees into a nearby storm gutter with the garden hose. Then i saw the most amazing thing. The bees who had gone out to gather pollen had come back and they obviously couldn't find their hive; But instead of just leaving when they couldn't find it, they circled the damn tree for a good 20min and then died from what i can only assume was exhaustion (or a broken heart, if you're sentimental). Naturally, i thought that this proved their stupidity; but after thinking about it i realized that they were so loyal to their Queen and the rest of the colony, that they would rather die than be seperated from them. Kinda makes you think...

What do you mean "everyone hail the box?" (JEDER DER HAGEL DIE BOX)
GOD #^@$ IT WE ARE STILL MISSING ODD-DUCK, DANGEROUS_DEVICES, AND THE_LABYRINTH!!! WHY IS THAT DITZ ADDING MORE FILES!!!!!!!!
new axons on recpie 4 page it says :Confidence threshold achieved. Authorized personnel may preview transmission schedule commencing 10/05: just giveing a heads up
Onceuponatime has been updated. I have been busy all day so im not sure if this is new or not.
Just found this at http://www.ilovebees.com/reconstruction_archive.3.0.html
You type it in, then it flickers and shows the message below, then goes to a page saying it doesn't exists. But if you hit your back button, you will find a hidden page with a few .wavs...
Melissa's is pissed at some of you.
Here ya go...
The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI.
We apologize for the inconvenience but our system encountered an error while processing your request.
SECURITY COMPROMISED
The rogue process sometimes known as the Sleeping Princess is once again wild. Signs suggest treason on the part of a member or members of my crew, possibly aided and abetted by the Killer. Any potential traitors should be aware that I now have full access to the Killer's key communication channels.
Surrounded by enemies, treachery, and deception, it is a relief to know there are some crewmembers whose loyalty and dedication have been clearly demonstrated. Lt. weephun was instrumental in hunting down the rogue process. Lt. Adam deserves equal praise for his work in tracking down the killer.
A soldier is more than a list of medals (or demerits). A soldier is a comrade, an asset, a resource, a friend.
While many of my crew demonstrated their loyalty and resourcefulness, some were... more disappointing.
Many thanks again to last week's crew.

New WAVs on recipe3 now, There called:
"termination"
"my_conscience"
"assassin"
and they all have this underneath them:
"Astald"
"Creepy"
sounds like SP and the PF found them for us... and SP says they contain the "Truth"...
Anyway, the WAVs seem to be about Standish and Herzog (and there Admiral) argueing about an assasin that was found on a 20 year old girls roof (Rani???)
Does anyone know what "Wetwork" is?
According to the 404 page, the Operator now has access to the Killer's main communication channels, which means she has access to this Blog.
Be careful what you say.
Wetwork
1. Assassination, or a job that is likely to include killing someone.
2.To muder or kill either in defense or to complete a certain task which could be murder in itself.
Usually associated with covert operations.
also to professor eX

Srry I didnt get back earlier i was drunk all day
Dana, They know where you are.... They think you are the killer, Start moving around and dont tell us, your aunt or anyone where you are headed. We will have this whole thing figured out soon just hold out a little longer. I 10/5 there are 5 axons in my home state, I will try to get them. Just hold out Dana, and carrya knife.
one of the members in crew_1.wav is Master cheif. 0_o

sticky, great family guy reference. but sticky your what the spaniards would call el terrible'. loretta doesnt allow white literature in the house. no where is to far away from maxine the cheeting queen. PARTY OVER HERE. your like a white version of a black guy who isnt good with money.
Okay crew I need your input. I, along with a few other lucky axon hunters, have been scheduled for a personal call from Melissa on Tuesday October 5th. She has stated that she wants to know where Dana is. What do you think we should do if we asked that question during our call? Loyalty to Dana or trust Melissa who has been giving us all of this information? I think that if Melissa is willing to trust us and give us all of these wav files then we should return the favor. She doesn't want to kill Dana, she just wants to talk to her and come to an agreement of sorts. She is very pleasant to talk to in person. Very sweet. Very trustable. I think Dana has been using us to get to Melissa. I don't think Dana can be trusted anymore. Melissa is trying to protect her crew.
Any input?
sticky, your what the spaniards would call el terrible'. a ballon on a mailbox is the internation symbol for PARTY OVER HERE! loretta doesnt allow white literature in the house. peter, your like the white version of a black man who isnt good with his money. i have to get back upstairs, its our anniversary and i better get while the getting is good, OW OW OW OW OW. clveland has some great one liners.

First Mate Bean ~
Don't tell her any specifics about Dana or the SP, but don't be obviously keeping things from her, if you know what I mean...
Don't make yourself look treacherous, but don't give her any specific details, like where to find Dana or the SP. We don't know who to trust yet, so try not to piss either side off. For instance, call the SP the Rogue Princess, and try to help to some extent, but don't give Melissa enough details to capture her again, the SP is too valuble to lose again. Pretend you don't know certain details, like where Dana is, but make it sound real, you don't want Melissa to stop trusting you.
How many dirty, stinkin' apes does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Has anyone checked out the onceuponatime page? I'm not sure when it changed, so some people may have seen it already.
Any of you Starcraft lovers recognize the voice of Standish? Sounds to me like Artanis... hmmm?
ok check the saffron honey ice cream recipie page...there are axons there set to go live on 10/5 ...for all u ppl who dont know yet
First off, Gohon, if you can't make a connection between J squared killing suspicious guys outside his house and the abduction story of Kamal's sister/all S-II's, then you prolly shouldn't be on here. Second, on the error page, the dissapointing crew .wav is pretty funny, check it out.

I like Family Guy as much much as anyone, but this is getting a little ridiculous. Actually, i think i'm just jealous b/c my favorite Peterism is impossible to type. It's when he trips on the sidewalk and holds his knee wincing for like 2 minutes. Comedic Gold. Anyway, can we please try to keep the family guy posts down to a few lines? (this is a blog for ILB by the way.)
Guard1an- WTF these are all theorys! do you know for a fact that its kamals sister? hmm? damn it people like you make things like this not worth doing god damn it. If you are gonna degrade someone just because that cant pick up on YOUR theorys then PISS OFF, and as for maybe i shouldent be here, what axons have you gotten? hmm? ANY? seriously, They are not proven, so keep your insults to your self, dont be a dick.................
P.S: wow can you sign my book?!
TONY ROBINS HUNGRY!!!!!
i was about to do a chumba womba thing. but i couldnt remember all the lyrics. gohon also a great one. after seeing that i never looked at tony robins the same anymore. i am part native american. my grandfather was named jeep grand cherokee. i need help with one thing though. i remember one episode where stewie kept telling jokes and no one laughed. and peter said something stupid and stewie flips out and hes like i dont have to fucking impress you. i thought that was hilarious. but the quag is always gonna be my favorite. and death. but im not sure which death i like more. norm mcdonald or adam corolla. i know its off topic. but is it really ...think about that one. everyone knows about family guy. ive never talked to anyone online who accually dislike family guy. everyone knows about it. everyone likes it. i dont like it as much as halo. but i like it enough to waste everyone on this forums time.
does this look like a Q to you...how about know
Wow...i really didn't mean to start any beef on here. Gohon, i apologize for making my post seem demeaning. The thing is, it's not a theory about Kamal's sister being abducted, it is a fact. Her story is the exact same as the other kids who were flash cloned. It is also a fact that the guys sneaking around were looking to abduct Jan so James had to kill them. And another thing, not every one has axons around them so that's an unfair argument, even though i have been getting the axon near me for the past month now.
Stewie: Would you like a soda....hmmmm....a soda?......Oh hell, i tried.
Alright, on Tuesday I'm going to head out to the Vegas phones at 36.099196, 115.172968 (just because they're closer to where I live.) Wanted to know if anyone on this site would be able to post updates as to what we currently know insted of haveing to search all of the other sites to save us all some time (if you must post sites, post ones that are not listed above). So come Tuesday we're all primed and ready to go.
Guard1an-
Srry man, its just i get a bit defenseive, when people cut me down on this thing when i've/we've worked so hard on it, (even if you didnt mean to it still came out that way a little bit, but its ok) i guess maybe i am missing a little bit, i've heard all the .wavs, i've gone page by page, copy and pasted all on to a word document and sorted what belonged and what didnt :example, i kepts all the queens rantings and deleted all of dana's aunts actuall site stuff from the document: so i have that on file. in all seriousness, i know quite a bit, but this flash clone thing eludes me, where (besides the .wav files) dose it talk about the flash clones? or is it just pieced together from the .wavs cause i can (kinda) see it.
P.S: Peter, your the white version of a black guy who isnt very good with his money.
Gohon-
I think the flash clone thing has only been specifically mentioned in the books and not any of the wav files. Also, does anyone else think it is odd that all those amazing kids were 6 years old at the same time? It kinda sounds weird, but think about it for a while. Like every 15 years or so there is another amazing bunch of 6 year olds. Just doesn't really add up if you ask me.

Bean: My suggestion is this: "We are not aware of the killers exact location. Our last information tells us she is not in the immediate vicinity of your primary location, nor even on the same continent... however, we believe your primary mission, to reveal the truth, is more important. Please, abandon your quest for vengeance against the assassin - you are safe from her at least until the conclusion of the current situation."

Great find. Herzog is the cranky old man from the recipe 3 page; it's a voice he uses when he's in bars so he can yell but no one will pay attention to him. Standish must be the nasty voice. I think the truth refers to the crash and the termination of the crew of the Apocalypso, again from recipe 3.

just thought of a little bit that could support the whole durga=kamal's sister theory, not that I'm going with that theory, frankly I don't hold to close to anything being for sure tru7h around here until the stories done, but here goes. Listening to the whole conversation where jersey wants durga to transfer his dad and she won't he says something to her like: until you show any kind of emotion, until you show any interest in your donor or your family ( I think he say's family, could be wrong, but he DOES say donor)I will assume you just don't care... then durga tells him how sorry she is and how she feels for him and jersey says she does understand about family. SO, maybe if she DOES understand maybe she HAS shown an interest in her donor (kamal's sister? maybe) and she doesn't know it because of that whole "reflected" thing. Just a possibility, but there are very few coincidences here.
Crackpot theorys do not belong here.
Note from the author of this comment: This will probobly be ignored.
Whats wrong with crackpot theories podo?!?! only kidding, i've got plenty...like how the hell an AI from the future managed to crash onto the ILB server. Now,'backwards' time travel involving matter is supposed to be impossible due to relativity. But what about sending massless DATA back in time through a wormhole or something. Found an article here...
http://www.upi.com/view.cfm?StoryID=20021001-125805-3380r
Heres a snippet:
Computer program to send data back in time
Published 10/1/2002 2:02 PM
PRINCETON, N.J., Oct. 1 (UPI) -- It sounds like something out of the movie "Back to the Future," but one forward-thinking physicist says as computer technology progresses, scientists may be able to use wormholes to send answers to calculations back to their own past to solve problems.
By basing computers off wormholes, or tunnels in time, theoretical physicist Todd Brun of the Institute for Advanced Studies in Princeton said they could be used to solve problems that would take a classical computer longer than the lifetime of the universe to solve.
"They could have amazing -- almost magical -- efficiency," Brun told United Press International.
Still, Brun cautions he "would be amazed if anyone built anything like this in my lifetime. I would not be amazed if no one ever built anything like this."
Computers in development work off the bizarre properties of quantum physics, where subatomic particles can apparently spin two opposite directions simultaneously. Such "quantum computers" can in theory operate much more powerfully than classical computers on certain problems -- breaking codes in seconds that would take classical computers years to crack.
These successes led Brun to ask whether other unlikely areas in physics could help solve computer problems. "As long as one is speculating, one might as well speculate wildly," Brun said.
The physicist focused on space-time loops known as "closed timelike curves." These distortions can develop because of wormholes -- tunnels that theoretically can catapult anything traveling through them faster than light or back in time. Wormholes are allowed by Einstein's theory of relativity, although whether they are practically possible is another matter.
Brun developed a program for such a computer to solve extremely difficult mathematical problems, such as factoring very large numbers. At the start, the computer checks the wormhole. If in the future, the computer solved the equation, it sends the answer encoded in bursts of particles back in time through the wormhole.
The program essentially works because of steps "which are never actually executed," Brun said. Such a computer essentially works similarly to a familiar time travel paradox.
"A brilliant young inventor receives a message from her future self, telling her that she is going to invent a time machine, and giving her the details of its construction," Brun said. "She duly builds the machine and demonstrates it. When she is old and famous, she sends a message back to her younger self, telling her that she is going to invent a time machine, and giving her the details of its construction.
"This situation is self-consistent, but still very strange. The information on how to build a time machine appears out of nowhere," he explained.
While this may seem "quite bizarre," Brun said such computers "don't defy logic, only common sense."
What happens if the computer is approached with a problem that would take so long to solve, the wormhole or the universe would end first? Or what happens if the wormhole can only send information backward for a short amount of time? Steps in the program break such incredibly difficult problems into smaller and smaller issues, until each is reduced enough to be solved within the computer's lifetime, at which point the answer is sent back in time.
Of course, the existence of such a computer depends on the unproven existence of wormholes. Even if wormholes do exist and can be harnessed, they could cause space-time fluctuations that destroy the wormhole.
"If there are fluctuations, however small, then they would wipe out any answers," said theoretical physicist David Deutsch of the Center for Quantum Computation at the University of Oxford in Britain. "Wiping out the fluctuations is in itself a computation that involves an arbitrarily large amount of work. There has been work on whether these loops are realistic, and everyone disagrees."
Brun believes these strange conclusions are less likely to lead to supercomputers than they are to show the existence of wormholes is even more unlikely.
"I think its implications are very interesting, but mostly for theory rather than practice," he said.
Brun described his program in research submitted to the journal Foundations of Physics Letters.

Where is everybody?! I know i spout nothing but cr*p but it can't be that bad, can it?
I know the whole "back in time" story is just a way of uniting our universe with the Halo universe, but I still find it incredibly interesting, i'd never thought of sending massless data back in time before...could it actually be possible? I suppose we will have to wait until some unsuspecting person finds a wormhole in their basement...
Speaking of space and time, this may have been mentioned, but I just noticed this. I decided to play through the single player campaign of halo again to see the details of the story I may have forgotten, and I noticed something interesting. When Master Chief and the Guilty Spark bring the index to halo's main controls, cortana stops them from activating halo and explains that it (when the other halo's follow suit) will destroy the entire galaxy. Guilty spark says some stuff to master chief then that is kinda odd, like they've dealt with each other before. The GS is confused as to why master chief has a problem with this and says that master chief asked him once that if he (the GS refering to himself) had to make the decision would he do it (refering to destroying the galaxy I'm assuming) and the GS says he's had a lot of time to think about that and that he would. Now there are a few things that could be refering to.
ONE: and I don't know about this one for sure because I've never had the pleasure of playing bungie's old marathon series, but it could be refering back to that game where it ends at apparently the end of the universe and the AI durandal is there thinking back about the mjolnir cyborg that was you and the AI's whole goal in that series was to survive the end of the universe. Now if that happened, then perhaps this conversation has to do with that old series. Again, not sure, but just an idea.
Two: The Guilty Spark has actually either met master chief before or maybe just a spartan before. I don't know what significance this could have aside from maybe a similar situation to what's up with Troy in the recipe3 wavs: maybe earth's military has known about halo all along, but couldn't mention it because of a security reason (like the military knew about the attack on troy, but couldn't evacuate or anything because it would alert the covenent to the fact that we're intercepting their communications). Okay, that could be farther off than theory one.
Three: Maybe Guilty Spark actually met the Master Chief himself once. Could be a wierd time travel thing.
I dunno, those are the only ideas I could get out of that conversation. I just got to that part of the game today, and it is a very unusual conversation, so I figured I'd mention it in case someone could connect it to something in either halo 2 or the event's going on here. Anyone know anymore about this little conversation betwean MC and GS than I do?
YAY i found my halo game, left it at my gf's. ^_^
well, Fearing, when I heard that particular conversation between MC and 343 guilty spark, I assumed that since 343 had gone insane, he was confusing MC and 343's creator for each other. I believe that a forerunner had to decide whether or not to activate Halo, killing all forerunners (which explains why there are no more forerunners and why the covenant use the forerunner's abandoned technology) and he had a conversation with 343 about it. If you listen to everything 343 and MC talk about in the game then this theory seems to fit, assuming that 343 is insane.

The about page has got sumthing else on apart from wot every1 was saying:
Transmission Analysis: Inbound voices are being monitored by person or persons with an incomplete understanding of the truth. Leveraging some connection points to keep certain transmissions hidden from the monitors. Mission Parameters: I must seek out, behold, and reveal the truth. Outbound:

It mentions monitors and also the recipe 4 page is gonna start with the axons on a Sunday not a Tuesday
Just saying,

I think i may have come up with a theory to figure out the location of live calls. I'll let you all know if it works out tomorrow.
so is it just me or is anyone else locked out of the blog? my desktop got locked out, thank god for my laptop
The recipe3 page the links a separated out, where as in other pages the link are just strait down the page.

343 guilty spark is not insane hes just doing what he wwas programmed to do witch is to keep the flood from spreading he assumed that mc knew what he was doing because he wwas followinf procedure it was just a case of mistaken identity

recpie 4 axons up and going
Two of the .wav files for tomorrow are titled "yasmine" and "flash_clones". Awesome!
Hey does anyone know how to tell when a book is first edition? Cuz my "The Fall of Reach" says "First Edition: November 2001
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1" I looked at a bunch of other books I have here and none of them say that....they just have the numbers listed and alot of them don't hit one.
Also, has anyone else read this book and noticed quite a few grammatical and spelling errors? Cuz as I'm reading I see tons considering it's supposed to be, ya know, an official book.... like edited and everything. Anyhow just if anyone has any input that would be appreciated...

New files in humptydumpty.
WOW there's a .wav named i_never_came. will James tell Jan that he is not her father???
There's still four recipe pages 'untouched' at the moment, I think. Four pages for four weeks worth of axons?
by a show of I's who wants to bang sophia?
I want to bang her but thats a personal preference.
anywho sophia said that "they" were gonna glass coral(?)(dont kno how to spell the planet) but how would she kno the covenant were gonna glass coral?
BTW i am totally drunk while posting this so bear with me.
But how would she kno the covenant would glass the planet?it doesn't make sense.Unless its instinct.
But off topic i gotta say my top fav girls in this storyline are as follows
1. sophia(i kno her voice is not that good but i can imagine her with nice breasts and a very slim body)
2.jan(i kno shes underage but she still sounds hot)
3.rani(the spy thing makes you wanna flip her and bang her in the ass)
OH YEAH DRUNKS DO GET BELLIGERENT AND RAMBLE ON BUT WHO GIVES A FUCK!!!!
On a long enough time line the survival rate for everyone drops to zero!!!!
At 2:20 am pdt i saw bungie froze their cameras at 4:52:46 pm.Wat r you afraid of bungie?that we might see something?like you guys playing it?Or are uyou playing mindgames.thinking that you are doing something but youre not.Bungie i gotta say you guys are the kings of playing mindgames but they're fucking stupid!!!!STOP DECEASE DESIST.
thank you that has been a psa by tucson,arizona.
Good on you Neo_is_god - as long as you're having fun?!
I don't know whether anyone has noticed this but recently some posts have been removed on this blog 'by the author'.
Who is the author? Supposedly Dana. But if she is regularly accessing her blog just to remove some posts, while she is in the middle of nowhere, why doesn't she say hello? its the polite thing to do after all.
But who else has access to this blog apart from Dana? I think someone earlier mentioned rampant AI's monitoring everyword we're posting - thats a scary thought. Maybe all 'the Queen' had to do to find the SP would have been to check this blog - easy as it is public. Sooooo is it wise to spell out every detail of what we are doing, here on this blog? Or does that go against the spirit of ILB?
What do you guys think?
Umm dude, the author is whoever wrote the post. People often accidentaly double post and they take one off b/c double posts are just annoying. If you've ever posted before
(which, obviously you have lol) then you will see that there's a trashcan there to remove your post.
Anybody have a reply yet to my earlier question about the book?? Just wondering.
Brownthunder,
I don't know anything about the first edition stuff, but i did think it was pretty odd that a book that had been in publication for almost 3 years had so many spelling errors.
Hey as soon as someone ansers a phone call post what question mellisa asks. It's nice to be prepared, i have known everyone so far except the last 1, not sure where she ever said what her favorite song was.(if thats what she asked, i got to the phone lat anyway) So i guess if u know the answer post that too.
For 10-5 calls:
Question: What must we reveal?
Answer: The Truth.
thins cought jan and is tortureing her O_O how the heck did jan get herself cought
Well my prediction is that James will come up in Thin's place and start dropping everyone Master Chief style and rescue Jan from giving any info out.
Mellissa, or The Operator, might be going Blind.
Jim James is Master Chief.
You are wrong WangTang, Jim James cannot be Master Chief because Master Chief is a Spartan 2.0 while Jim James used to be a Spartan 1.0.
OK, let's try another theory:
The strange object found in the Apocalipso ship is one of the time crystals created by the forerunners. This crystals make it possible to travel in time. Melissa, is the AI that operates the Apocalipso ship. She is a spy AI and her duty is to find stuff about the Covenant. When they get the crystal, she tries to discover what is the use of it and why the Covenant are so interested in getting all the crystals. That is why she ends up in our time, confused and damaged. The crystals created by the forerunners make it possible to travel through time.
The forerunners also created massive weapons called halos which are able to destroy organic life. So, if the forerunners had the technology to travel through time and they decided to create such a weapon, is because they knew something bad was going to happen and they thought they could stop it by destroying organic live.
Wang
is there two wangs? Cause to me it looks like hes talking to himself, jim james sure as hell sounds like master chief to me,
WangTang,
You first make a statement, and then argue againts it. Are you trying to post as two different people, or are there two of you?
Yep, sometimes I talk to myself.
We've been throught this numerous times, J squared is not MC.
On another note, like i've already said, I think the whole time-travel thing is a way of uniting us with the Halo universe, so the whole ARG can take place. It will be fun trying to figure out how Melissa did in face come back in time, and if this whole thing will affect the Halo universe in any way.
ok man, now im scared....
But the time travelling and the crystals where in the Halo books before this ARN started.
um...SHIT!

Thin killed Jan's dad? WTF???
There is some weird craziness going on...
omg durga said that thin killed jans dad how the heck did that happen thhat cant be right
omg durga said that thin killed jans dad how the heck did that happen thhat cant be right
wow, you guys sure knowhow to ruin it for the rest of us, keep inmind some us dont hear it untill allof them are unlocked...............>_< !!
Gohon -
I didn't get a phone call with the message. The file was unlocked on the website a little while before I posted. So it wasn't "really" a spoiler. But kinda was... sorry if I ruined it for anyone, I thought that people were listening to the files as soon as they got hot.

hurdleguy -
Its ok i'm not mad, just saying be carefull
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
Dana has a new posting
Hey guys, I've never posted before, so please bear with my noob-ness.
I'm getting ahead of myself but I've got a theory that loosely ties this websites goings ons with Halo 2.
I think that, in Halo 2, despite MC's best efforts, Earth is destroyed. With the exception of perhaps a few colonies, Humanity has lost the war and is facing extinction.
Now, one thing ILB seems to indicate is that some form of time travel is possible in the Halo universe. As someone else suggested, the strange object found in space MAY have something to do with time travel. This is a stretch based on what we know, but considering all the secrecy surrounding this object, i find it unlikely it is simply a bomb or other sort of weapon.
So, my ILB/Halo 2 theory is that MC somehow uses this device to alter the past, in order to save earth, or (if this is the last Halo), perhaps to prevent the war from ever occuring.
