That's exactly where I left off...
what is 001 012 034 053?
I have this suspicion I've seen them before, but no idea where

So, considering the BPC for server 5 said stuff would happen tomorrow, and it's officially the day AFTER that tomorrow on the West Coast, and this is the only thing that happened on that designated day... Do you think our next clue lies in this magazine, or are they pulling an Ethan Haas on us?

ok so i was playing around with the numbers we cant find a reference too and what i first thought about when i saw them was they are the reference to other spartans. so i looked up the numbers of the last three remaining spartans which were linda-58, Kelly-87, and fredrick-104.
so i started adding and subtractiing and poking around with those numbers. so what i got was that when u add 012 twice and then add it to 034 you get 58, Linda's number, then you add 034 and 053 and you get 87, Kellys number, now 2 things are wrong with this, why would bungie disguse this on the cover to this mag when all the other numbers are specificly related to something, and 2 that 104 i cant seem to work out with these numbers. IM probably wrong but what if these numbers are in reference to something we havent noticed yet

GPS coordinates for the caldera in Africa, likely location of the Ark, near Voi. Also spec, but the most reasonable to date.
