ooh wait

this place is the one that gives out the Nobel Prizes!

[slender lodge]

there aren't that many logos that are just two circular rings making a venn diagram so i wouldnt think its too far off

[slender lodge]

https://www.govmint.com/2021-cameroon-500-francs-17-5gm-silver-mercury-ruthenium-proof-coin-w-ogp

[sharp flame]

I think it's Ironic that the Nobel prize comes from the guy who invented Dynamite haha

[slender lodge]

i thought it would come from someone who's bell got stolen...

[timid solstice]

ha that wall must have everyone we've ever posted or mentioned here

[slender lodge]

there must be something else with 404

if it's been emphasized so much, along with 00

[sharp flame]

my bet is still on it being something not found, or not physically existing

[slender lodge]

oh?

[sharp flame]

cause that's what 404 means

so idk, it could be like a meta jab

so it's something 'undiscovered', 'not found'

or doesn't exist anymore

like Chrysalis, or a Lost Asteroid

[timid solstice]

if we got burrw, yet chat messages are still missing o's .. what does that mean

[sharp flame]

it must be for this tier

[slender lodge]

yeah

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[sharp flame]

since the Sega Saturn is now confirmed

for this tier

[pure loom]

Hilarious that this guy is taking a selfie in a room full of portraits

PS…
It lks like ur friend ran ut f luck…
Hey, dn’t worry it’s just a 404 and ur little buddy will respawn happier than ever befre, prmise.!
the 404 page without 12 o's

[sharp flame]

I'll be honest for a split second I thought you were trying to swear 🤣

[slender lodge]

because of this?

[sharp flame]

yep

because of that

my eyes are faster than my head

[pure loom]

Ha! I read it like that too!

[slender lodge]

😂

[sharp flame]

"our little buddy"

NamaTama is canonically small

so not human sized, unfortunately

[slender lodge]

is namatama discovered

[sharp flame]

"respawn happier than ever before" also implies immortality

"ran out of luck…" also could draw a connection between Luck and Eggs??

I think I vaguely recall something like that

[slender lodge]

"its just a 404" - the world doesn't exist yet
"will respawn happier than ever before" - respawn in this universe after its creation again? like parallel universes or going back in time?

[sharp flame]

🧠

to quote Rob:

[slender lodge]

5 o's in toooo

[sharp flame]

wait

hmmm

that could mean something

[timid solstice]

I think we worked out it was, by the scale of the hologram effect

[sharp flame]

the hologram has a size?

Gaia Enceladus (or Enceladus Galaxy), the remains of a dwarf galaxy that merged with the Milky Way that was discovered by the Gaia space telescope

something missing!

shame its not a Dwarf Spiral, it would fit with 110D631 but I dont think thats correct

[sweet narwhal]

i figured it out guys, the password is clearly "new zealand" because New Zealand is not real as proven through the Mercator projection. Since New Zealand is not real it relates to empty set and 404. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omission_of_New_Zealand_from_maps

[slender lodge]

Maybe the password is nozealand then lol

"Who I am - How I Come to Be"

could be referencing the creationism stuff - Big Bang, World Egg, etc.

'Who I am' could also refer to "cogito, ergo sum"

[boreal trench]

Just thought I should point out that there have been two things that rob has said that have been very close to lines in kung fu panda, 1. "There are no accidents" and 2. "you have not seen anything yet". I just thought that if kung fu panda is meant to be a small clue two things do come to mind from the movie. The first is when Po first starts training and fails the course, and Master Shifu says "there is now a level zero" and the second is the answer to the dragon scroll "There is no secret ingredient". Anyway it's probably nothing but in case it turns out to be linked I thought I should at least post it.

[sharp flame]

what about that golden scroll

which has nothing on it

[timid solstice]

oogway too

[boreal trench]

sorry that's what i meant when i mentioned the dragon scroll, as thats what its called

[sharp flame]

aha right

my bad sorry

idk if it being golden might relate

[boreal trench]

yeah it might

I guess i should put the other movie from my childhood that I noticed links with in case it is linked.

The Incredibles has two links one being Zero Point Energy which is one of Syndromes inventions, and second, the password to syndromes computer is Kronos.

[sharp flame]

If The Incredibles connect that would be awesome

Our hunt is trending on Wikipedia lol

[sharp flame]

I feel like we've missed some clues

in the 404 and friend_u_missed images

[neon stream]

@sharp flame how did you guys arrive to Sonic? 🤔

[sharp flame]

Sega Saturn

[neon stream]

hmmm

[sharp flame]

and "Rings"

cause, yknow

[neon stream]

Yeah, that's what I was thinking

[sharp flame]

but it's been anticonfirmed

as in it's not in the hunt

so yeah

[neon stream]

Yeah... I read that by Rob. But just because it's "not" on the hunt (not used as a clue), doesn't mean it doesn't relate, right? it was in Rob's mind for a reason. Could that be the rings? 🤔

Just found this 😅

I wonder if it was because of what Duh said...

...or because of the GIF's oval 😂

(I put in in two separate messages in case Rob wants to 👀 one... 😂 )

[sharp flame]

it's the zero I believe

Discord makes it kinda unclear haha

I wonder

Time = Zero could... be our answer?

Time since the Big Bang: 13.8 billion years

138 is 137.5 (golden angle) rounded up..

I think I'm just seeing things...

[sharp flame]

the gif does look a lot like burrw

[slender lodge]

Yeah haha, like a 90° rotated

[tulip matrix]

[slender lodge]

I wouldn’t say ”any answer”… but you have a long way to walk still on the Vega-path… ._. ❤️

My English isn't the best so I initially found it weird that Rob said "walk still" instead of "you still have a long walk on the.." so I searched and found this film called Still Walking which won the Golden Astor and a Golden Aster (changed O) is the name of a Aster (flower) variant called Chrysopsis

Some unexplored links from this:
Chrysanthemum Revolution (Aster Revolution) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aster_Revolution
Aster https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aster_(genus)

Gold and Aster were links so I pursued it a little bit but I haven't gotten very far with it

[pure loom]

Lol. In Embark Studios:

@prisma stump and I knew the perfect replies to that Tweet. I leave you to go see. Hehe.

It's growing

Wack software lol, I put my birthdate correctly and I don't think 2022-2002 < 13

Aaaaah that's frustrating ;-; I think I might accidentally typed 2022 instead of 2002 even tho it was that scroll to choose thing

i have yeah

i recently changed my birthday cuz it was set to 1990 lol

oh-

yeah

sigh

i sent my id to prove im (at least) 13

Just checking in, thinking TODAY might be the day you solve this tier… ._.

[hidden nacelle]

rob just give us the answer

did we ever solve 941122?

[slender lodge]

i dont remember if we did

22nd november 1994 is what we got from it i think

[sharp flame]

https://www.onthisday.com/date/1994/november/22

all I got is Dacre Montgomery and Khalil being born

[slender lodge]

oh wait, is that where we got Sega Saturn from?

[sharp flame]

that..

makes a lot of sense

[slender lodge]

i only learned that today

[sharp flame]

I think I just forgot

[neon stream]

Now we need to see that 😂

Sooo how’s it going?

Some multi-stage eggs in BF2042 today so been out for a while

[neon stream]

Not good, we have not seen the "Byggare Rob" Poster yet 😕

[tranquil ivy]

Rob spoke again Flex

He says "TODAY" a lot

[timid solstice]

I wonder why Rob thought we’d solve it today… hmm

[tranquil ivy]

but we have to finish Tier 1A-F 2A-F and 3A-F

first

[tranquil ivy]

We just have to finish this one first 😭

[sharp flame]

it's the 17th?

[latent peak]

Ooh yeah here it is

[sharp flame]

Rob's reference^

[latent peak]

ah silly me

[sharp flame]

well you never know

he thinks we'll solve it TODAY

and he says that at 8.18pm lol

[latent peak]

lol

[sharp flame]

maybe he does mean the 17th

[slender lodge]

when does he say 'TODAY' on other times

same time>

[sharp flame]

I'm just feeling stuck this tier ngl

have no idea where to go

[tulip matrix]

We'll just have to wait for the singularity
Maybe the robot overlords will be able to figure out this tier

[sick stone]

Rob did one day say we had ZERO chance of solving it before midnight so perhaps I wasn’t too far off? #easter-eggs message

Perhaps multiple (X?) people at the same specific time? : #easter-eggs message

Hmm

#easter-eggs message

Perhaps 00:00 GMT?

I’ll try in 3hrs if I don’t forget

And if that is not the case perhaps someone with JS skills can educate us on in what case something like a password that is publicly accessible needs a password page and not just a URL as the previous tiers?

[sick stone]

Same, really thought we had something with Sonic an Euler pointing to Cyclopes

[sharp flame]

I mean the two ends don't connect

but the mere presence of Sonic on Robs clue board probably means there were connections in the first place

not to mention that Euler and Sega Saturn are both independently confirmed

so we still have progress

[cedar owl]

@proud minnow Rob, if they ever solve this tier, who do you think they will be more upset with? Themselves or u?

[proud minnow]

...do you mean us.?!

[cedar owl]

Oh no, I mean you! You formed this whole thing yourself. I had zero involvement. I am inculpatus, as they say.

[slender lodge]

"if they ever solve this tier"

[tulip matrix]

Oh boy

Password must be in Latin

[latent peak]

Do you guys think "U" has any significance ?
Rob and dusty usually spell it "You"

[sharp flame]

it probably does

I haven't been able to really connect though

maybe we need to look at it differently..

[tulip matrix]

Maybe from a more nihilistic perspective...

[sharp flame]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Walsingham

literally the only thing that comes up on Wikipedia

you'd think that removing the o in you would get yu

but no, the y and o are gone

the first use of u as you

is here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOU

Cali appears..

[latent peak]

If taking this message literally it could point to the U particle/ up quark
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_quark

[sharp flame]

either that

or the capitalisation of U means something

with the L and P

I originally thought LUP

or LOLLUP

[tulip matrix]

U is a parabola

[latent peak]

Yeah parabola might be it

[sharp flame]

suppose so

it's half an ellipse

very interesting

original shape of u

one of these

maybe Uranium --> Uranus --> William Herschel?

[sharp flame]

Aww thanks

[sharp flame]

hmm, wonder if Rob means something EE with the <3...

[strong hare]

Ok what can I help here

What are we up to now

[fallen jasper]

Well if you open your book up to page 103 and read until page 223 you should get the gest.

[sharp flame]

we have a lot of clues.. and we need a password

[strong hare]

What are the clues where can I start

Will do

[fallen jasper]

Oh yeah, eventually I need to talk to you and a couple others, Fish. We're gradually getting closer to the pin limit and I'm wondering how you guys want to combine pins or if you just want to not have the first couple of tiers pinned anymore.

[sharp flame]

there are a lot of clues which are pinned

which I think we don't need pinned anymore (since they are on the document/padlet)

The clue images can now be found in #official-art

so it wouldn't be so bad for us to unpin those here

if we just pin the doc/padlet, which includes the clues, then we won't need to pin the clues

[sharp flame]

--
okay, I really do wanna get this tier outta the way

I think the main way this thing should be interpreted is
4 and 8
48 = 0 (ASCII)

[neon stream]

Yeah, I think that the only things we need from there are:
-Your important things
-Rob's comment on things we missed
-RHB's rules (or include that in your pin)
-Flex's Doc as it's own pin

I would add two things:
-Flex's current breakdowns of the images' clues (I know they can be accessed through your pin, but I think it's easier to just have them pinned)
-RHB's videos about the previous Tiers, as that's something we always tell newcomers to watch so they can understand how these hunts work better

[sharp flame]

This is primarily Ceres (it fits 100%)
and perhaps references Saturn (it fits some intepretations)

VM.57 = Sputnik (to me it is 57 and Sputnik (named after first satellite) was formed in '57)

[strong hare]

That looks like a chi or sa in japanese

Hiragana

[neon stream]

Yeah, you can also look at RockhoundBlack's videos. I would also recommend looking at the Padlets of previous tiers in general, to see how the clues connected to the answer. Kyne has highlighted the main path in them 👍🏻

[strong hare]

It's facing left so it's chi

If I'm correct

Long time since I don't study japanese

[strong hare]

[neon stream]

I agree about the '57, since Rob mentioned that he didn't expect for us to make the Virgin Mary connection. I don't remember how Sputnik connected, but I'm guessing you are right

Oh, the band, now I remember 😅

[sharp flame]

Sputnik is Van.M's first band, naming it after the Sputnik 1's launch which just happened

[neon stream]

Yeah, 100%

[sharp flame]

Ceres, is AKA Ceres 1

[neon stream]

(100% agree, not sure if we are right 😂)

[sharp flame]

so it probably is pointing towards that whole system of orbiting bodies

minor planet (asteroid, centaur, trans-Neptunian object and dwarf planet but not comet)

Ceres is Minor Planet designation no.1

the first

both Titan and Saturn are not minor planets under that definition

so I wonder how that even connects

cause when you think about it, Titan and Saturn don't really directly connect to Heliocentrism and Keplerian Orbits or whatever

there must be something specific about them that connects another way (apart from the fact that Titan orbits Saturn)

[neon stream]

I've beem thinking that U could be for the Union in set theory, since we have:
-The empty set
-The "Venn Diagram" (Union of two sets)
-USS Cowslip? (Union Navy)
-Honoring Archimedes (medal with his image, by the International Mathematical Union)

The other thing is for Unicode characters, which start with "U+"

[neon stream]

It does look like that, good find!

Oh, I missed that, sorry! I used the search and saw it was the first time mentioned 😅

Good find Darn!

[strong hare]

am sry

[sharp flame]

I don't know if we've mentioned this

but Ceres was also a 'missing planet'

and also in the first image

we have the Euler eye

My phone algorithm is getting to me ...

[sick stone]

Star occultations by celestial objects such as 1 Ceres and 136108 Haumea has been used to calculate their size and shape

Thinking back to what RHB mentioned #easter-eggs message

https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/advice/skills/how-calculate-observe-lunar-occultations/ “Lunar occultations have given observers the chance to discover double and multiple stars.” - by basically blocking out the light from 1 of them..

[pure loom]

We should make sure the first tiers are added to THE FINALS Wiki first, I suppose.

[fallen jasper]

Yeah

[pure loom]

Casually announces existence of THE FINALS Wiki

To be fair, it would probably be helpful to have a few people working on it now with a few EE tiers under our belt

[fallen jasper]

Hopefully someone knows how to use the text editor

[hidden nacelle]

👀 wiki?

[pure loom]

I’ll post the link for the ‘official’ Wiki

It’s something a couple of us have worked a bit on, but with a Beta coming sometime, now is probably as good a time as any to put it out there as the core structure of it is there

[sharp flame]

yeah

I don't think I'll be making much headway with the EE part for now

probably good to put some time into filling that out

[pure loom]

Presenting the ‘official’ THE FINALS Wiki: https://www.thefinals.wiki/wiki/Main_Page

[hidden nacelle]

[pure loom]

@tulip matrix and, I think @fallen jasper (recent), and I have done some work to get this underway over the last few months, along with some kind IT help from @cedar owl and co 🙏

[fallen jasper]

I did a couple of the weapon pages

[pure loom]

Great!

The main thing that needs adding now are the recent EE tiers, I think

And maybe some more weapons pages

[hidden nacelle]

what about more of the sponsors?

[fallen jasper]

I added the 3 that we know the names of but nothing else back a few months ago

[pure loom]

👆

[hidden nacelle]

i have the logo for vaiilya and volpe but not holtow

[fallen jasper]

yeah

I saw

lol

Oh

That is what you meant

Yeah

[pure loom]

Once we get Tiers 1B and C in the Wiki, that should reduce the need for pins a lot hopefully

[fallen jasper]

The wiki link has been pinned in #⚡┇the-finals-chat though

[sharp flame]

I was planning to try filling the wiki when the EE stuff was not concurrently running

but I see the flaw in that reasoning..

the EE won't stop...

[fallen jasper]

The wiki shall be filled out in 2026

[sharp flame]

😭

[pure loom]

Yeah, “everything, all the time”

I figured best just to get more hands on deck

Good luck to those that write the current tier up

[sharp flame]

I don't even think I understand it 🤣

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/rugby-tackle-gif-25042170

Is the phrase “hospital pass” a universal one or just something we say ‘down under’?

[neon stream]

Will the Wiki be at the same level of detail as the Doc, or less specific? 🤔

[sharp flame]

as much as we can mention without being wordy

is what I think we should aim for

it's more supposed to be a log of accomplishments/events than a catchup guide

that's what the Doc and Padlet is for

[neon stream]

I see. I hope we find a way still to mention everyone who contributed on the hunt, like the Doc does, after all this is a team effort. We should make emphasis on that imo

[solar glade]

this is so cool

[sharp flame]

That would be nice. I wouldn't mind if it used impersonal language though ("X" was discovered.)

but it would be nice to immortalise myself for something though haha

[neon stream]

Yeah, I get that. But at the same time, I think that in the 1064 password that "I got" was 100% because of the progress everyone else did. I wouldn't like to be the only one taking credit for that, just because I did that final connection. This is like a "Relay race", we are a team, we shouldn't just credit the steps of the last member of the team, imo

[sharp flame]

I'd love to take credit for the Gold thing, but I only really started to look into that when other people mentioned Element 79 after 79 was solved. Would've never thought to look at it on my own

[neon stream]

Yeah, it's the exchange of ideas between everyone that leads to the answers, not just one "solo journey"

[sharp flame]

unless someone's been freelancing it without being active here 😭

'Hey guys, I solved this tier for you. The answer is 12345'

I'm genuinely going to explode with happiness once this tier is solved

digging through Early December. Apparently we were close to the answer..

I have to complain about the Password page I'm sorry 😭

I don't think anyone's brought this up and that's why it hasn't been seen to

but the view button is on the enter button

so you can't press it

ever

and so I keep having to recheck my spelling by typing it somewhere else and pasting it in

I think it's been like that for every password page

[sick stone]

Astrarium? Orrery? Planetarium? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planetarium mentions of Archimedes and what is essentially the oldest known example of an analog computer

Some planetariums can display both heliocentric as well as geocentric motion. Also used for training in celestial navigation

[sharp flame]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Themis_(hypothetical_moon)

Xth moon of Saturn (hypothetical)

before Janus was discovered

the asteroid 24 Themis was named by Angelo Secchi

[sick stone]

I realize now that I am in fact late to the planetarium party

[sharp flame]

haha it happens more than you think

[sick stone]

I just had a thought that is a bit out there, but would explain why the answer is to be entered into a password page and not as a URL as one would need to run JS on it

What if the password is all the letters and numbers except for our answer

As in the answer is missing from the password

It only works if the answer consists of 6 or more distinct letters/numbers

[sharp flame]

if it was that, I'd cry 😭

[sick stone]

I’m on a phone rn and don’t want to do all that typing/spellcheck.. u wanna try “chrysalis”?

[sharp flame]

what do I type

[fallen jasper]

It isn't that

[sick stone]

It would’ve been abc…..0123….. etc. minus the characters in “chrysalis”

[sharp flame]

lmfao

I see

it's..

okay it wasn't that

unfortunately

[sharp flame]

Janus (Saturn X) could also be Apollo

Saturn is the Devourer

Can someone catch me up on this?

Please? 🙂

[sharp flame]

which part?

[upbeat badge]

@sharp flame I have no idea. The part that helps me understand what people are talking about.

I wanna decode stuff.

:}

Planet X got brought up too?

[neon stream]

I would recommend watching RockhoundBlack's videos on the previous tiers, and then looking at the pinned messages. There's a Doc with the info from previous tiers and the current one, which will give you a detailed idea on how this works. There are also Padlets for most tiers, that show the different clues from the images, and the things we found and connected

[neon stream]

Welcome! 💪🏻

[upbeat badge]

@neon stream Thank you.

Is there an Arc Raiders Easter egg too?

[neon stream]

Probably, but we haven't found it yet 😛

[sharp flame]

I mean there are a few..

[upbeat badge]

Just saw what the 3rd project is supposed to be.

Plz bf4 map editor.

Some akin to bf4 with a map editor and I'll sell you the clothes on my back.

[fallen jasper]

We thought there were a few, but I don't think we ever figured out what it was aiming at.

[sharp flame]

Apart from the 2 crossover logos

in the trailer

and in the main art

the 1337 thing seems to be a meta Easter Egg

but it has the possibility of overlap

[neon stream]

@upbeat badge I said this a while ago, and Rob's response to Duh's comment about it is quite promising 👀

[upbeat badge]

So fun.

Alright, so I should watch a bunch of blackhoundrock videos? Then I'll be up to speed on the EEs?

^^Pure Gold^^

Can't wait for whatever this is.

[neon stream]

You'll have a summary of the previous tiers, but there's still more info to read. It just depends on how much details you want, I guess. I would recommend reading this tier's section on the Doc, as that shows all the things we found so far. You can also look at this tier' Padlet, but it might be difficult to understand at first

[neon stream]

Oh yeah, Embark's Creative Playground is really good. I wish I had more time to test it, but the possibilities with it are endless

[upbeat badge]

One day an AI will come along. I'll tell it, " Hey, build me an fps." Then It'll code an entire," premium experience." Where I play as a Dog and throw poop at other dogs.

Lmao

Sorry, off topic.

[sharp flame]

good idea, though 🤣

Thanks! It will become even cooler with the whole community able to contribute.

[upbeat badge]

So excited to see Embark's new work. Awesome to see community focus. Thats what made Battlefield 4 so good in the end. That game has left such an impact on me. Being here feels unreal.

Here's to the next Medal of Honor Killer.

For those who know what that reference means...

[sharp flame]

I think I found a new clue...

but I have no idea how to make it visible

in Brown Eyed Girl

ooh that looks slick

still have no idea what in her eye

anyway this is the best I can get it

looks like an XY?

or XV

it needs enhancing

[pure loom]

Thanks!

[tulip matrix]

ok here me out
what if
the bond clue
0 0 7
7 being the 7th planet, Uranus
the preceding zeros being the planets that come before Uranus
Jupiter and Saturn

I don't know where I'm going with that

[upbeat badge]

007 is John dee.

Queen Elizabeth

007

The real James Bond

[upbeat badge]

Where did this,"Bond Clue," come from?

[timid solstice]

There were a few bond references in the teaser trailer

[upbeat badge]

007 immediately invokes thoughts of John Dee.

If we're being obscure.

[timid solstice]

Then I mentioned that namatama looked like the bond poster, then we got a bond namatama

But that didn’t have any hidden clues (we think)

There was also, “do you expect me to talk”

And 👀 for the Goldeneye logo posted , but that could be because it has a red oval

[upbeat badge]

Sounds like a strong queen?

Idk

[timid solstice]

Have we mentioned Element zero ?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutronium

Yup #easter-eggs message

[upbeat badge]

The connection with the stars may connect to these two characters as well.

As far as atomic elements, I have no idea.

https://historyofinformation.com/detail.php?id=3956

Idk mannnn

Seems like john dee all dayyyyy.

[slender lodge]

Bond

[tulip matrix]

Bond👁️

[slender lodge]

hmm james bond, golden eye - what if its something that Rob reacted with the eyes with 👀 that has the word gold in it idk 😂 splitting hairs here

[tulip matrix]

sorry hwat

[slender lodge]

bahahhah what?!

its because fish deleted some context messages and now i sound like a lunatic

[pure loom]

Eureka Stadium could point directly to gold via both Archimedes and Ballarat

[slender lodge]

yeah, been looking at Eureka as a whle + Ballarat

anyone looked at this yet>? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5261_Eureka

Also, was the Eureka stadium itself the confirmed clue or 'Eureka' as a word

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YORP_effect found this in connection too

thought the visualization was like those two circles making a venn diagram except in 3d

[sick stone]

I can at least say I haven’t, but that exact observatory, which discovered it has showed up quite a bit

[neon stream]

I just realized, but "Palomar" means "Dovecote", it relates to aviform a bit, but I doubt it's useful. I didn't realize before because to me, "Palomar" is the name of a town in Argentina 🤦🏻‍♂️

Gustavo Santaolalla, the guy who composed the music for The Last of Us, is from there. Many Argentine artists come from there. Not very useful fact 😂

[idle ginkgo]

Hey, what is this channel about? It got strange name, and I dont understand what is it made for? Can any good soul explain to me

[slender lodge]

It's pretty much a place to theorize, discuss, and solve mysteries and clues that are put into concept arts and other images like those in #official-art
They're not random puzzles so solve as it has been confirmed that at the end, they all link to something big and so far, we've solved Tier 1 A, B, and C and now we're at Tiere 1 D

If you wanna follow along I recommend watching RockHoundBlack's YouTube videos on them
and then also look at this message if you want to know more about the puzzles:

[proud minnow]

@cedar owl Dusty, hmm this is taking so much time... Should I stop the printers.?!

[zenith crown]

oo

hold up

that says the finals

the poor camara man who had to sit there and timelapse it

[cedar owl]

@proud minnow No way, Rob, you can't stop mid-print! It's just starting to take shape!

[zenith crown]

hmmm these are clues

[hidden nacelle]

👀

[zenith crown]

could be a trophy for when someone wins THE FINALS™️ 👀

[fallen jasper]

Rob I hate to break it to you but it seems like it's only taking around 5 seconds to print the base.

[strong hare]

Don't stop it!!! Otherwise you'll make a bat very sad.

[solar glade]

oh no, you must let it finish Rob!

[sharp flame]

Let it be... It must finish.. 👀

[solar glade]

i’m not at home so i can’t check the frames

[sharp flame]

Printing, and shape

I think we talked about printing stuff earlier

the guy who printed an edition of The Elements for example (with Geometria on the page)

The shape one is a pretty obvious shape

I mean unless the shape of the egg is just a reference to eggs

and it's really the 'shape' aspect we should look at

just shapes, no eggs

[proud minnow]

Why would people ever sit and check single frames in .gifs..? Makes no sense... ._.

[proud minnow]

The printers are still running, I mean, why would you ever want to make a bat, human or namatama sad...?

(hmm... maybe time for a bat-nama soon...?)

[strong hare]

ohh thank you! btw... humm... can we watch... you know... some more frames?

bat-nama!!??

[proud minnow]

In the future, you will, but you still have a long way to go in this EE-hunt... ._.

[solar glade]

i know right?!

[proud minnow]

I will see what we can do about that, because NO ONE wants to make a red panda sad ever.!

3D printing the statues? Very cool

[sick stone]

I can’t find who mentioned it earlier, but: https://www.esa.int/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2018/02/Saturn_s_B_ring_peaks

[sharp flame]

can't check rn

what's the gif called?

[sick stone]

Did anyone point out the time when those pictures of Saturns rings were taken?

[hidden nacelle]

''running out of time''

is the name of the gif

[sick stone]

Heyyy, is that Titan setting over the horizon in the bottom right or something?

Perhaps just a planet or moon

[timid solstice]

Looks like morse code lower left

flashing . and !

[strong hare]

oh it does

but why is it like... this: /

[sick stone]

For those wondering what I’m talking about

Much clearer if you watch the gif in motion

[strong hare]

and it disappears when the pad lowers down

[sick stone]

Yup

That’s the “setting over the horizon”-part

[strong hare]

prob the number of the frame when it disapears

i mean... what can it be rly

[sick stone]

I know someone talked about Titan setting over the horizon of saturn, viewed from Cassini or something at one point, but I can’t remember who.

[sick stone]

I also want to point out that these photos from Cassini connects to equator and equinox.

[sick stone]

Definitely looks like something

[strong hare]

so... titan the thing and saturn the pad?

[sick stone]

Yes

Saturn do be a chonker, so would look pretty flat if you are close enough. More so than the horizon on earth

[timid solstice]

I think its binary, maybe

plotting now

[strong hare]

it goes left and right

you can notice clearer right at the end when it is about to go behind the plate

[sick stone]

That’s what got me thinking it wasn’t just a random speck

More like a video/series of pictures

[strong hare]

yes

timelapse with photos or something i dont even know

[sick stone]

It doesn’t move with any accompanying distortion either

[sick stone]

Yes

Very Cassini

[strong hare]

it kinda has some weird distortions on the top left

it appears i assume 3 times some wobbly vertical lines

[sick stone]

Yup. I’m not on my computer nor do I know how I would go about it, but perhaps checking every frame and/or overlaying the distortions will reveal something

[timid solstice]

[sick stone]

Is that the binary code?

The quick brown 🦊 jumps over 13 lazy 🐶.

Oopsie

[strong hare]

yeah "trol0te=e"

that what i got

[sick stone]

My bad y’all

[timid solstice]

perhaps its not binary

[strong hare]

np, i got a bit confused xd

it isnt like a dot or anything, its a /

is dashgaming the answer!? xd

I need to know

[strong hare]

the result of this: ATTLEOFANTOWATH ; gives me Power Battle Watch Car as a result on google

[strong hare]

idk, i just learnt in my math classes that it is called "número de neper" (Neper's number)

but can be called other things

Euler Napier Néper etc

It looks like the base of one of the character build statues

[zenith crown]

ooo yeah truee

[zenith crown]

ahh yeeee

[pure loom]

I hadn’t really noticed this before, but the large build character has what looks like an egg/sphere on their forehead

[timid solstice]

I thought that too

Does sure look like the bases

[timid solstice]

Hmm yeah like a slanted egg

[pure loom]

Why would you put an egg on your forehead?

[timid solstice]

Easter eggs on his mind

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/step-brothers-i-get-it-brennan-gif-24350017

[timid solstice]

Could be a play on this type of decoration

[pure loom]

Yeah, it looks similar, but as a sphere/egg

[timid solstice]

Has anyone else looked at the frames I’m the gif? Anyone up for verifying what I posted?

[pure loom]

I’m not on PC, so maybe someone else is able to?

[timid solstice]

I loaded it photoshop, enabled the ‘timeline’ and skipped through the frames noting down . And !

It stops at frame 72

Message from a Hunter in BFEE

‘That's for anti leak .. stuff , i.e. There are a lot of leaks that happen from inside .. and this is a way to forensically analyze where within the org it came from.

[hidden nacelle]

get all the bfee hunters in here 👀

[sick stone]

What is for anti leak stuff?

[sharp flame]

maybe the oval?

[sick stone]

Ahh

[sharp flame]

I don't completely buy it though

with how intentional Rob is with these images

if we're missing 50%+ of these clues they have to be somewhere

[timid solstice]

The code lower left

. And !

I don’t think it is personally a anti leak code but worth investigating around that theme

[sick stone]

What are your thoughts on the moon/planet setting past the horizon idea? Anyone have a better idea of what that thing is?

#easter-eggs message

[timid solstice]

I think it’s part of the printer bed plate moving down

We could work out which printer it is

Might be difficult though

[sick stone]

It has a weird movement if that’s the case

Just gives me error msg though

[last dragon]

glass bubble

maybe

[sick stone]

What if

The ./! Is simply a frame marker

If we grab the frames with “!” and overlay them on top of each other , perhaps?

[latent peak]

Hmm maybe. Can give it a try during lunch!

There's a lot of interesting interference patterns at the top of the gif as well. I tried to puzzle them together but no luck yet

[sick stone]

Maybe it correlates to the “./!”

[timid solstice]

Yeah the chevrons are back

[pure loom]

“Troilite can be found as a native mineral on Earth but is more abundant in meteorites, in particular, those originating from the Moon and Mars. It is among the minerals found in samples of the meteorite that struck Russia in Chelyabinsk on February 15th, 2013.”

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troilite

Not quite the right spelling, but close

Rob’s answer makes it sound like this gif could be a tiny teaser from a new trailer

“In the future, you will” means there ARE more frames, for a start

Or maybe a coming “making of” video (possibly more likely)

[fallen jasper]

I mean I could see it being the opening to the beta trailer

[latent peak]

No luck

Here's only using the ! frames

[slender lodge]

i tried to map the position of the printer head relative to the circle drawn

but it just came out as a bunch of dots with no meaning behind them

[latent peak]

Found 2 more frames with bits of the oval.
Left is a composit of all 3.
But sadly seem to be "just" an oval

[slender lodge]

an oval cut in half tho hmm, there must be more to it

[latent peak]

I's only the bottom right parts that's missing though, so an oval cut in 3/4 I suppose : )

[latent peak]

Some pieces keeps repeating at the exact same spot

[slender lodge]

ooh nice spot

is there a pattern or just a few frames repeating

[latent peak]

Good question!

[agile wadi]

Where this video from

[latent peak]

Rob posted it earlier here in channel

[timid solstice]

Hey bear, the message is in the pins

[latent peak]

Found the last bit in the shadow.
Looks like parabola to me

On the parabola wiki page i found some things

1: **Galileo **showed that the path of a projectile follows a parabola, a consequence of uniform acceleration due to gravity.

2: parabolic reflector
René Descartes proposed a design for one
Archimedes is claimed to have used reflectors to set fire to enemy ships
Used in Telescopes and Satelite dishes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_reflector

[timid solstice]

Neat. What frame numbers were these on?

[latent peak]

89, 90, 91, 92

[latent peak]

Yes there's a pattern.
They all have 48 frames between the first and last repeat

[slender lodge]

:0 i see

i guess the 48 could refer to the 4/8 2/4 thing

Cadmium as well

[latent peak]

Ah yeah true

[zenith crown]

have u guys solved it yet?

“ but added other Io-clues instead for you to find instead… ._.)” . Io the moon? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Io_(moon)

[upbeat badge]

The number 48?

https://press.princeton.edu/books/paperback/9780691002606/ptolemys-almagest

Does this book have anything to do with what's being discussed?

I'm still kinda lost on the source of everyone's information. So I'm winging it with what I've got

There were 48 accepted constellations at the time of this books creation.

Instead of our modern 88

[timid solstice]

48 has come up one in a message from Rob and we think twice in a clues

#easter-eggs message

Clues at stripes on the mic, 4 and 8

And labels saying 4 8

[upbeat badge]

What if 404 is a coordinate?

[sharp flame]

48 is 0 right

It definitely has a double meaning

Maybe we're missing something with 404 the year

It feels like Rob put a lot of faith into the burrw hint.

Like that would be the final piece for us to solve the puzzle.

Ive been down the whole saturn music/sound rabbit hole, but most stuff seem to be pseudoscience.

Have u guys found anything from that lead?

[sharp flame]

Sound, and Titan/Saturn seem to be as far as it goes

do we know if maybe theres a unique story/reason why it's called the Saturn and Titan?

why did they name these after planet/moon right?

[latent peak]

Good point! 🤔

The console was called Saturn because it was Sega's sixth games console

[upbeat badge]

Did the Bond clue ever get exposed? Is that still relevant?

[latent peak]

Then naturally : the ST-V was presumably named after the moon Titan, a satellite of Saturn

[sharp flame]

Hmm..

Satellite comes up a bit

[latent peak]

We never found out the number on the gun as far as i know.
As for "Bond" there's been several leads

[sharp flame]

we know it's something to do with the fact of orbiting

Bond to me suggests atomic bonds.

Kk but what's with the A698

[sharp flame]

I think it's fair to call it a platformer too, right?

with that awesome movement

[strong hare]

it gives me a road

in the uk

like... only searching raw in google

[upbeat badge]

That's what I came up with too.

[strong hare]

but thats just like... no effort xd

i just searched on old gud guggle

[sharp flame]

this is super cryptic oh dear

with how he says it it seems like A698 means 'Bond'

[strong hare]

[sharp flame]

referring to the first part

[upbeat badge]

Yeah, that basically wrecked my grasp on what's happening.

[strong hare]

[sharp flame]

A698

1698?

[upbeat badge]

No bond then ?

[sharp flame]

yes bond

[upbeat badge]

Yes bond??

[sharp flame]

he's just being cryptic

about what 'bond' means

as in it has a double meaning maybe?

[upbeat badge]

Yes bond!

Sub atomic highways?

[sharp flame]

[proud minnow]

Ohh, I think it is crystal clear, hihihi

[strong hare]

[sharp flame]

[upbeat badge]

I keep seeing the Manhattan project come up.

[strong hare]

[sharp flame]

for obvious reasons I don't think it's actually in though

haha

[proud minnow]

Yes you are right, perhaps I should go to bed instead... ._.

[sharp flame]

but maybe.. we will solve it...

[upbeat badge]

Where did the gif of the printer come from?

[proud minnow]

From embark... ._.

[strong hare]

hahaha, if it is getting late for you, you should, if not you could help us out... maybe? just a bit? pweez xd

[timid solstice]

Rob posted it

[proud minnow]

I think you will, you have never been this close..!

[upbeat badge]

Can I have a fresh post of the Gif? All of the recent posts of it were edited.

[timid solstice]

You mean the finished 3D print?

[sharp flame]

I think this might be the answer

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulcan_(hypothetical_planet)

it's come up twice in 'overtime' clues

but it could be another vulcan

[neon stream]

We pray to SR in here for help 😛

[sharp flame]

the thing is, he's given us so much already 😭

we're probably right next to the answer hahaha

I genuinely think the answer is either Vulcan or it's on the Vulcan wiki page
