First take a read through the QuickSummary - a brief overview of the events so far, in a much more condensed, quicker narrative to catch up on the story of Iris.
The trail begins June 11th, 2007 with a forum user called AdjutantReflex posting some cryptic messages.
Outline - Week 1, June 11 - 16, 2007
- in brief:
- AdjutantReflex posts on bungie.net, and Society of the Ancients hold small rallies in 6 cities. The glyph is discovered, along with a small Halo comic online leading to what SOTA calls the 'transmission log'.
Outline - Week 2, June 17 - 23, 2007
- in brief:
- A Circuit City ad, and a Best Buy ad include a direct reference to the comic. AdjutantReflex is hacked and replaced by another unknown entity. The timer halts, at a number that (coincidentally?) is the GPS coordinates of a suspected resting place of the Ark in eastern Africa. The transmission log changes to direct people to the 'bounce path control' where the first 100 people are given 'keys' and are instrumental in unlocking Server 05 to the public, wherein a number of new files are found.
Outline - Week 3, June 24 - 30, 2007
June 28, 2007
- The CI team at Bungie discovered that at around Noon(pacific) a minor change had been made to the Server 05 background sound - a quick chirp occurs about every 5 seconds or so. Extracting the sound file from the flash to analyze reveals a clear difference between the previous sound and the new sound.
- At 10:17 PM PDT, AR began a new thread entitled A pulse
6/28/2007 - 10:17 PM PDT (direct link)
|
June 29, 2007
- At 12:42 PM PDT AR created a new thread entitled Veins of Ice and Poison
6/29/2007 - 12:42 PM PDT (direct link)
|
- Later in the thread AR posts again, presumably responding to other posts about the extermination of the 'real' AR
6/29/2007 - 12:49 PM PDT (direct link)

Outline - Week 4, July 1 - 7, 2007
July 4, 2007
- A 4th glyph was reported by args.bungie.org, in a new cardboard promo for Halo 3. -- Very similar to the initial closed version of AR's avatar, but it has no center circle/dot
July 5, 2007
- Valchael on the bungie.net forums announced he'd received a package from Microsoft containing a number of SOTA-related items. He was one of the first 100 to open Server 05. It's expected that packages were sent to all 100 - whether each will receive their package depends on the validity of their addresses (entered either directly, or via their Passport/XBL account).
- The package contains
(1) A T-shirt (front/back)
(2) a copy of the SOTA flyer
(3) a printed version of the Halo 3 comic
(4) a slip of paper with an XBL key redeemable for an Iris glyph gamerpic (see right).
- nattyhaze on arg.bungie.org discovered via google numerous classified postings for a company called Flood Containment Control (text displayed on the Slide_Ref070107.jpg), containing an image with the original 'closed' version of the glyph. The ads contain the phone number, (888) 778-5672, which has an interesting recording. Details here (actually discovered July 6th)
July 7, 2007
- The message on the flood containment control call number has changed to a conversation between two men. Of note is a reference to "402-K-07-002". suitedjock googled the number, which lead to an EPA webpage referring to a booklet "EPA 402-K-07-002", Flood Cleanup and the Air in Your Home.
- The new recording says this (listen):
- Op: Welcome to the External Conferencing center. Please enter pin number followed by
- Caller: #### (231#?)
- Op:Password accepted. Now accessing conference archive number 16180, participant 1-2
- Man 1: ...as necessary, and neither is the doc download.
- Man 2: I agree, this is not going to be a public resource. Uh, pass on the document number so I can delete it
- (pause)
- Man 1: There is no way to tell yet, Jamie(?) is looking in the records to find out how many closed sights there are, but as for active clean up, some were around 3 or 4 thousand. Oh here it is. Uh, Hold on. 402-K-07-002 and in terms of numbers most of these are past the DBE stage
- Man 2: With a few exceptions, site 34. . . .
- Op: --Thank you for calling. Goodbye.
