Looks like something to enter in the developer console to me (although the very beginning resembles an IP address with only the last three numbers showing). Has anyone done any Halo modding on the PC? Maybe they will know what it's hinting at, if anything.

x.xx.713 looks like a possible date separator? 7.13? Could we see something that early? Maybe the beta won't be starting until then :( or it could be a random version number or something.....

I was on the whole release date/IP address thing as well.

713 is outside any usable range...the X's could represent roman numerals?

Phone number? coordinates? who knows!

I agree with speculation concerning the Spartan III connection. I wonder if it's another Cortana Diaries, except coming from the remaining team within the sphere. Pure guess; I have no idea how/if/why they would play that into the release.

Sorry forgot to add...if using roman numerals it would look like:

10.20.713

Oct 10? &13 and the significance of Bungie and the number 7 could be interesting...

713 is also the area code of Houston Texas... So could have something to do with where the Warthog was made...

@ Kinetic..I was thinking the saqme but July 13th would be too late for the beta. Bungie have stated that it is in spring...whether the beginning, middle or end we don't know...but spring is when its coming out.

It may just be me, but I also see the word "Ping" when I look at that composite shot of all the messages. Taking it like that, x.xx.713> could be an IRC nick that is attempting to be ghosted (without authorization)

Further putting on my investigative hat, 713 could refer to verse 7:13 which is by mat (and there so happens to be a mat on the Bungie staff) I'll give it some more though, until Xbox Live comes back up anyway. Oh and 7:13 is transcribed below. It could apply to Halo I guess.
