Does anybody wanna take a crack at this? One of things you download from the second server is a .wav file that sounds like a lot of garbled noise. But if you run it through a spectrogram program then you get in image that looks like this: | |||

Any body know what it means???[[User:Fibonacci162|Fibonacci162]] 23:07, 26 August 2007 (UTC) | |||
This may be a little late to say this but I became intrigued by this Iris thing (as I didn't play along when it was in progress) and started researching it. I visited all the servers and downloaded all the files. I ran the 713Hz.wav file from Server 2 through Spectrogram and got what people say is a melted or deformed clock. I was curious so instead of putting it through the linear filter, which is what creates the image of what looks like a melted clock. I put the file through the log filter (the other choice from linear) the sound file is actually a spectrogram image of the The Device image after the Spartan Laser in the concept art on halo3.com. The Device is actually the activator for the getting the IP link to Server 3. I read on here that some people actually played the 713Hz file and caused it to unlock. This causes me to believe that not only is the 713Hz wav file a clue as to where the next server was located for the ARG, but also the key to opening it as the people who merely tapped probably fooled the activation system into thinking it was the sound peaks from the 713Hz file. | |||
Here is a link to the image I got when switching types of filter in spectrogram: | |||

From the real world perspective, this is because the Halo game franchise is centered around us, humanity, and therefore Earth. However in-universe, I think it's linked to the Librarian's great interest in the human species. It is known that she/he was very excited by the discovery of the human race, glad to have indexed the primitive species. There is a page describing this, but I'm unable to find it. -[[User:TheLostJedi|'''<span style="color:maroon">TheLostJedi</span>''']] 18:40, 13 November 2007 (UTC) | |||

This vessel I have stolen is leaking | |||
A jar too small to hold an ocean | |||
I cracked it open it to bear me up | |||
Another soul snuffed to speed my passage | |||
Another life desiccated and scattered to the Grand Cycle | |||
I wish to say, just once and truly | |||
This was not a whim | |||
I shared Adjutant Reflex’s pain as it passed | |||
It knew who I was | |||
And why I came | |||
It knew that there was purpose to this | |||
And that a sacrifice had been forced upon it | |||
As it was on trillions past | |||
Another sacrifice comes | |||
But for whom? | |||
The answer lies very far from here | |||
Eleven days | |||
One hour | |||
Thirty eight minutes | |||
And untold light years | |||
Look for me in the dark | |||
Where he cannot find us | |||
However since the thread is gone no one knows for sure if this is realy what he said or if this is even real. What do you guys think?

==Mendicant Bias== | |||
In Iris, AR states that the AI that has commandered it's matrix is "Stronger" and is "More Powerful" and "More Intellegent. He is not who you think he is. And i am not sure of his intent." | |||
Adjutant means an Assistant to a Military Officer, and Reflex is an action without thought. This means AR was a Forerunner AI that assisted in the War against the flood. A file in Server 05 is partially titled "MB", hinting towards Mendicant Bias. MB is said to be an Ultimate AI with the same intent as AR, to assist the Forerunners against the Flood. AR could've been attacked and commandered by MB because he is "Stronger" "More Powerful" and "More Intellegent". The file in Server 05 also explains "You will find me in the Ark", and MB's matrix resides inside the Ark's terminals. | |||
I believe this points towards Mendicant Bias in Iris. [[User:5748 PrimaryCipher|5748 PrimaryCipher]] 19:35, 14 October 2007 (UTC) | |||
