("''0''" represents the numbers in the countdown. From left to right, the four three-digit numbers represented days, hours, minutes and seconds.)

When bookmarked, the page will be named by default "Transmission Log". Nobody yet knows what the website is counting down to and it is strange that the countdown will skip numbers with the digits 7, 8 and 9 (for example, it will countdown like 32, 31, 30, 26, 25, 24, etc. It will also countdown like 102, 101, 100, 66, 65, 64, etc.). It is also strange that the "minutes" and "seconds" (and possibly "hours") columns of the timer start at the number "113". However, the digit skipping could be explained by the possibility that the timer is counting in Base [[~~List of "Seven" references in Halo|~~Seven]] instead of Base Ten. If this is true, the timer is counting down to midnight on Thursday, June 21, 2007. June 21 happens to be summer solstice.

A clear reference to this is made with the [[Stonehenge|Stonehenge cromlech]] quoted on the [[Society of the Ancients]] website. The cromlech in United Kingdom is made to be aligned with the sun on the summer solstice.
