easter-eggs

[sharp flame]

great enough to solve this one password 😭?

we need to look at the bigger picture

[timid solstice]

I just want to find a nugget of a connection

[sharp flame]

good one

[turbid tinsel]

idk, ive exhausted every possibility in my brain without going back and looking over every piece of the padlet. which i should probably do but thats for another day

[hidden nacelle]

[116 103] [162 111] [182 [172 101]

not sure what the second one is for L

[south wyvern]

you're probably looking at 108

[turbid tinsel]

its it at all possibly related to the clues you guys found in the corners on previous images

also, has anyone entered literally the answers for abc together in one line

robs image came when entering all 3 things together

please tell me we have tried this

lol

[hidden nacelle]

thats what the numbers are translated too 🤔

182 is that weird red symbol

[turbid tinsel]

have we had greek clues at all?

or anything that greek numbers could be used for?

https://mathshistory.st-andrews.ac.uk/HistTopics/Greek_numbers/

some things maybe spelled using the number here but its a stretch

but also, the last egg in the egg photo has a triangle nose and 3 lines for a mouth

not sure if thats just a bad egg reference or if theres more to the egg itself

but still no where close to abc

man we just need one more set of eyes

[hidden nacelle]

#easter-eggs message

are these eyes new

[turbid tinsel]

those are new

i do not remember seeing those earlier

[hidden nacelle]

ye

[hidden nacelle]

i translated the word gold but does not make any sense🤔

#easter-eggs message

[turbid tinsel]

ok how the keyboard keys may or may not link with eta Cassiopeia

btw the u key is missing from this pile

[turbid tinsel]

ive seen this before but not sure how i am supposed to read it so i ignored it

[turbid tinsel]

on the c64 keyboard, if you take the g, and you fill in 1 square that resembles both shaded areas, and then you spelled out gold, the boxes filled in seem to spell you I C and U. kinda like "i see you". made me chuckle. D didnt make anything i could recognize as a letter though

[timid solstice]

nice! ok we are inching further

seeing as the keys themselves were eyed, separated from the unit

[hidden nacelle]

[7467] [ó6F][ 6C] [1/4 65]

red symbol goes before 6C

this is in hexadecimal

[hidden nacelle]

https://sta.c64.org/cbm64petkey.html

[hidden nacelle]

maybe ready? 🤔

this shit confusing 😩

got a good image

cant tell what the second one is

[digital apex]

CaCO3 is the main ingredient in eggshell, so other clue would be lead to eggshell one

[ember aurora]

What if you just answer the gif

Thinking of that clue/react message from rob 6000666 not sure if any relation. Just throwing it out there

[digital apex]

I never thought I can see Korean letter in easter egg channels

[faint rivet]

https://tenor.com/view/mental-health-matters-thinking-stare-gif-16078202

[south wyvern]

Club / X

[south wyvern]

is this the one? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_(hangul)

[neon stream]

The second symbol? It's Spades, the card suit

[south wyvern]

Serpenger's right. It's Spades

[turbid tinsel]

that circle look familiar?

kinda like the way the ready gif is and loading gif is distorted?

wanna know why the keys are relevant

have to use the alphabet to strike gold

https://www.typeroom.eu/content/korean-alphabet-won-gold-medal-years-winter-olympics

please tell me this is a lead

[digital apex]

yeah that one

[turbid tinsel]

do you know how to spell gold using hangul?

[digital apex]

gold in hangul write like 금, that is combined by ㄱ, ㅡ, ㅁ

[turbid tinsel]

what keys on the keyboard have those symbols

i think we may need to use those keys or the unicode reresentation maybe

the symbols used almost look like robs morse code for srs as well

im not 100% sure but feel like this might be the right path in some way

[digital apex]

hangul in that image is named ' ㅔ ' and ' ㅣ' that has 1165, 1175 in unicord system

https://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U1100.pdf

[turbid tinsel]

ive had some wild ideas, so just be aware while going into this hole ive opened

[digital apex]

As a Korean, I am proud to be able to gather clues about Hangul stuff.

[turbid tinsel]

do you know if hangul would make any sense with our answers we have already gotten or anything with maybe the density of gold or something in anyway?

and maybe the way the hangul is formed it will look like an egg, or maybe point us to something egg related in korean maybe?

like a korean dish or something, idk im just spitballing

closest thing im seeing maybe is the gyeran jjim

[digital apex]

theres a one Life qutoes "Look at gold as if it is a valueless stone."

[turbid tinsel]

no stone was a previous clue

[digital apex]

wait I can see some Hanguel on left side

I need upscalling that image.. lemme do it

[turbid tinsel]

makes me think of fools gold again, or maybe we need a rock

[digital apex]

but I cant tk Embark studio know that Character

[turbid tinsel]

i went to google with this, which lead me to diamonds

[digital apex]

the medal of the side says "ㅍㅊㄷㄱㅇㄹㅍ" which is
It is named after the initials of the PyeongChang Winter Olympics.

[turbid tinsel]

intresting

also when i looked up diamonds which essentially lead me to the saying "a diamond in the rough" and when i googled that it lead me to another page

https://grammarist.com/usage/diamond-in-the-rough/

There is a similar saying in Japanese, tama migakasareba hikari nashi, which translates as a jewel, unless polished, will not sparkle.

TAMA

[digital apex]

So we need japanese for that clue lol

[turbid tinsel]

idk

[digital apex]

Just joke

[turbid tinsel]

it could just be coincidence. and the relation of seeing tama and the namatama egg

has me hoping this path is correct but i cant move without eyes or seeing rob comment since i would know im wrong

[digital apex]

And C64 & C64 keyboard has no clue in Korea

"During the heyday of the Commodore 64, Apple II clones and domestically produced MSXs were generally popular in Korea, and the Commodore 64 was very hard to find as there were no compatible models, let alone an official release. In the 1980s, Korea was a developing country, so purchasing a home computer was a huge burden for Koreans' household economic power. At the time, the price was around 300,000 to 500,000 won, which was close to the tuition for one semester at a private university."

[turbid tinsel]

are any of robs clues game of thrones related?

only asking because i swore i read somewhere or maybe on the meet the devs video but i swore somewhere i mentioned he wanted to find a way to add the dragon game

then the beyond the wall hack message

gold and egg references there

would be a neat idea if this was somehow linked

[pure loom]

We need an EE channel t-shirt that says this

[hidden nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/yoda-sad-upset-tired-star-wars-gif-15907225

[pure loom]

I don’t think so. I think dragons might make it into the game just because they’re 🔥

[hidden nacelle]

theres a dragon outside the map on seoul

[pure loom]

I missed that. Got an image?

[hidden nacelle]

im kidding 😆

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/disappointment-gif-21343121

[pure loom]

“Peddle claims the inclusion of card suit symbols was spurred by the demand that it should be easy to write card games on the PET (as part of the specification list he received).”

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

[pure loom]

With the corners and lines in these characters we could convert the shape around the gif we have into characters

[hidden nacelle]

tried to crossword the word ready and got the numbers 25149 which is 100101000101001001 in binary and that binary number is, ''I''

im just trying everything 😆

[hidden nacelle]

wouldnt that just recreate the shape? 🤔

[turbid tinsel]

what about gold?

or numbers we have already gotten like 1064 or 79?

[hidden nacelle]

got nothing for gold

[turbid tinsel]

ahh

[hidden nacelle]

its just a question mark symbol

[turbid tinsel]

honestly not sure where to go from here lol

[hidden nacelle]

rob did eye the keys so its definitely something to do with these characters 🤔

[turbid tinsel]

would it really be this complex is the question

if its so obvious lol

70+9 on the keyboard is a diamond. is there anything diamond related

not really gold reference so prob not a good route

[tulip matrix]

I think the word ready in petscii would be 5245414459

gold is 474f4c44

[hidden nacelle]

that converts to ''Y''

5245414459 ^

[turbid tinsel]

almost similar to password type for the answer on C

[tulip matrix]

GOLD-474f4c44 is the manufacturer ID for the company GoldStar who used to make electronics

[faint rivet]

Has anyone tried looking into the other element, Mendelevium?? I mean it was an answer to the others.

[turbid tinsel]

was a hole that gave me no eyes. could of missed something but tried making a few relations to other elements and nothing appeared

[faint rivet]

Well, Gold and Mendelevium are Metal and both are on the periodic table. That’s the only thing I can think of that are common to each other.

Also too A & B are the only answers that have to do with Gold but C was a total different answer. Yea it has 137, the “golden angle” but then again Rob could’ve used anything to make 137. Why Mendelevium? Maybe Dmitri Mendeleev still plays a role on this????

[turbid tinsel]

what are the odds were looking for a gold star radio or something

[faint rivet]

But anyways, seems like this c64 thing is a better theory since the gif rob used look like a retro computer font.

[hidden nacelle]

i mean thats literally what it is

[faint rivet]

I know. Just thinking he used it cuz it looks cool. Lol

[turbid tinsel]

gotta follow the yellow brick road

or yellow block cursor road that is

[hidden nacelle]

specifically the unshifted mode

[digital apex]

holy

why ready is in that petscii code sheet?

[hidden nacelle]

i dont anything about the c64 but i think its just the text thats there for you to put something

''Unshifted PETSCII is based on the 1963 version of ASCII, rather than the 1967 version, which most if not all other computer character sets based on ASCII use''

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

please eye this rob ^ 😆

there is a dragon 64 wtf 😆

[hidden nacelle]

🤔

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

[faint rivet]

How do we know it’s from the C64?
Sorry there’s just sooo much to read. Lol

Oh nevermind. I can just search on the mentions. 👌🏼

[turbid tinsel]

man this would be so much easier if I could just relate everything to a natural disaster since the first 3 are related

[turbid tinsel]

Maybe we should try narrowing down def and give abc a break.

[pure loom]

Based on this wouldn’t GOLD be 740f40c40440 @tulip matrix?

[pure loom]

No, I mean we’d end up with a code using the character table

[tulip matrix]

you replace the zero's from the left column numbers with the numbers/letters from the top row

[pure loom]

Oh.

[turbid tinsel]

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

[tulip matrix]

here's a better table that makes more sense lol

[pure loom]

Maybe we should try multiple options using this - like GOLD, aurum, the passwords for ABC etc

[pure loom]

This table definitely makes a good modifier

[tulip matrix]

i tried gold and ready

[pure loom]

I think LOADING and READY point us more to the modifier and the basis for the password is probably GOLD

or GOLDEGG

[hidden nacelle]

i got ''w'' for goldegg

[turbid tinsel]

W formed in eta Cassiopeia constalation

[tulip matrix]

I've been trying a bunch of variations of gold
g0ld
gld
g550

was thinking in roman numerals

o being zero which doesn't exist in roman numerals

and L and D being 50 and 500 respectively

was also thinking about C64 having 16-bit color

https://www.c64-wiki.com/wiki/Color

the machine is capable of 16 colors

the closest one to gold being yellow

You can actually alter colors of the C64's graphics by using the POKE command with the right memory address and color code

so for example changing the cursor color to yellow would be
POKE 647,7

[turbid tinsel]

Found a Mu Cassiopeiae in the elbow of the constellation. One of the first sequence stars identified. And the other Mascot for the finals is moolah

[tulip matrix]

There's actually a city here in PA called Gold lol

and no I'm not driving over there to look for geocaches 😅

[hidden nacelle]

castle map? 😮

is that when the dragon comes into play?

this is the color yellow's character

[hidden nacelle]

reminds me of a Vigenere CIpher

[turbid tinsel]

what if this was a starwars reference

Gold was a valuable, shiny, warm yellow-colored metal. It could be used to fashion jewelery,[2] or turned into forms of currency, like the peggat

A peggat was a form of currency used by the Hutts on Tatooine. A peggat was the equivalent of four truguts or 64 golden wupiupi,

64 gold and a W

for eta reference

also happened a long time ago

[neon stream]

Great idiots think alike 😂
(I didn't try g550, so good thing you did 😂)

[hidden nacelle]

surely the password isnt just a variation of gold...right😶

https://tenor.com/view/clueless-gif-24395495

[turbid tinsel]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garry_Kitchen's_GameMaker

#easter-eggs message

a simple "gamemaker"

[hidden nacelle]

good find

[turbid tinsel]

looks kind of similar here

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karateka_(video_game)

[hidden nacelle]

thats based off japan so thats a japanese torii

[ember aurora]

one day we will complete this level :/

[hidden nacelle]

the password is right infront of us, but we cant see it 😆

[turbid tinsel]

sometime this century

any hour, day, month, year

[last dragon]

What if its Apple fritter

It takes two baking apples

To make an Apple fritter

last I checked

[lyric chasm]

i woke up, you stole my joke how dare

im now going to get some water and sleep

[fallen jasper]

Reading this channel makes me think I have a brain cell deficiency

[wanton sundial]

You're not alone 😂

[ember aurora]

#easter-eggs message I dont have the skills to do so in photoshop but looking at the picture and in my head overlaying the icons for each key over their alternate icon seems to make letters, if I am not mistaken? Kind of dune font Esq. can someone overlay the image on top of itself shifted left a quarter key.

Wonder if how you make this image in c64 has anything to do with this puzzle?

[fallen jasper]

Last password has to be egg

[timid solstice]

do you mean overlay the symbols?

I think that would just make a black sqaure

[ember aurora]

Yes but like combine say the two symbols for g , the two for o, the two for l ect ect, but only the inner part of the square.

[ripe cloud]

#easter-eggs message Much like Carl im thinking this could somehow correspond to the c64 keyboard? or since I wasnt around for when this clue dropped did we explore ternary code? (Like binary but instead of 1s and 0s its -1, 0, and 1 or simplified to 0s, 1s, and 2s.) (It would still be coded as binary....I think...but more like 00, 01, and 10)

[timid solstice]

rob agreed to this

[timid solstice]

unless that clue was intended for later on (now) then I would put it aside

we already have info on what we need to enter, its the working out the HOW

[faint rivet]

Are we winning yet?

[tulip matrix]

To think like the great Serp I think is a compliment

Although auto correct tried twice to change Serp to Derp so maybe the universe is trying to tell me something

[pure loom]

Great! Then this narrows us down a lot. We just need the combo of ABC and some sort of modifier.

[pure loom]

That’s his second job. 😂

On busy days he sometimes forgets if he’s Serp or Derp.

[pure loom]

We’re no longer losing, I think.

[tulip matrix]

Welcome to Derp N' Serp , may I take your order?

[pure loom]

A super-slurp Serp-Derp, please.

[tulip matrix]

Would you like maple Serp on that?

A - 1064, Year, Asteroid, Melting Point of Gold, Construction of Pisa Cathedral begins.

B - lxxix, 79, Year, Roman Numerals, Atomic Number of Gold, Eruption of Vesuvius.

C - 5f137s2, Element 101, letter/number string, Electron Configuration of Mendelevium, 137 Golden Angle.

[pure loom]

A should be asteroid, not comet, right?

[tulip matrix]

Ah yeah 👍

[pure loom]

And you can probably add in Mt Vesuvius erupting for 79BC

I’ve always thought mendelevium seems like a bit of an outlier amongst the other answers. Like there might be an additional reason for it being chosen that we haven’t picked up on yet.

We could also just convert it to its atomic number and have three numbers: 1064, 79, 101.

[timid solstice]

looking back the message he eyed was;

simple as using the T1 a b c clues

not "T1 a b c ANSWERS" that he agreed with you on

I do hope its the answers and not a combination of clues

[pure loom]

Maybe I should edit my message and put him on the spot haha

[pure loom]

Yeah, I think we should assume it’s the ABC answers

[timid solstice]

I do too

[turbid tinsel]

Based simply on the answers, we have a temperature, a number/element, and a formula from the looks of it

[timid solstice]

I've updated the pin with Rob's eyed messages, did I miss any?
#easter-eggs message

Hmm I wonder if eta cassiopeiae is a time clue

as in eta - estimated time of arrival

fits with the other time related crypic messages

[turbid tinsel]

Possibly, another question I had was what was special about the numbers that lead us there?

[timid solstice]

which number?

1779, 34.76, 5.95 ?

[turbid tinsel]

Yea why those number when we had nothing relating them

[timid solstice]

clue for you to find eta cassiopeiae

[turbid tinsel]

But wouldn't that have meant without rob we could of found those numbers to lead us there? Not sure how his clues work

[pure loom]

How do these numbers relate to the ABC answers?

[timid solstice]

I think its a helping hand, extra outside the box clue to help us

we didnt find these clues.. unless they were the answers to the codes we couldnt decode

[timid solstice]

they point to eta cassiopeiae, which somehow connects to something

[turbid tinsel]

Gold futures are traded on the COMEX exchange.[175] These contacts are priced in USD per troy ounce (1 troy ounce = 31.1034768 grams).[176] Below are the CQG contract specifications outlining the futures contracts

3476 on gold wiki

[tulip matrix]

maybe eta cassiopeiae is just Robs way of telling us we're dancing around the answer like a binary star system

[turbid tinsel]

what would estimate an arrival in the future

[tulip matrix]

We need to find our barycenter

[drifting pilot]

a arrival in the future =

[turbid tinsel]

futures contracts is something you can invest in and embark | hydroxate made a comment in there saying they were invested in this

[limber crest]

lmao that is not a clue, I'm invested in that I'm so intrigued with how ye figure things out

[turbid tinsel]

Bummer lol

[fallen jasper]

no

[neon stream]

And do you have a clue for us...? 😇

[faint rivet]

Awww.

[pure loom]

Maybe it’s just the binary nature - like telling us we should double the answers from ABC somehow, and that’s the modifier.

[faint rivet]

Well there goes my theory.

[neon stream]

@limber crest and we reward clues with sainthood in here...and the SH spot is not taken yet... 😇

[limber crest]

honestly have no idea, only rob knows lol

[neon stream]

Then we can give you the task of going to Rob's office, and take a picture of his board with all the clues 😛

[pure loom]

Knowing Rob, he’ll probably become a double-agent and end up plying us with fake clues 😂

[limber crest]

hahhaah

[turbid tinsel]

Comex exchange reminded me of Timex for some reason, who is a watch company that was created by a company who has 2 names that have egg implications

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

[faint rivet]

I just wanna know if we’re gonna have to use math.? Cuz a lot of EE hunts have to do with math

This thought came up to me cuz somewhere on here Rob said something about 6000666. Don’t know if anyone found a path to this or not, but I found this thing called the 6s challenge.
000=6 & 666=6. Basically it’s a number puzzle about solving the problem to equal 6

https://youtu.be/h2vkrxvh76c?si=jcn1kaG7Dh2hFjCo

Violate your NDA for goofy silly moment 😜

[tulip matrix]

Best lead we have so far lol

Yellowstone 6666

[tulip matrix]

gold is kind of like a yellow stone 😄

[turbid tinsel]

Idk I keep finding Easter references everywhere

That was the only non easter reference

[tulip matrix]

six million six hundred sixty six

[turbid tinsel]

There's no caret symbol on the c64 right?

[tulip matrix]

on c64 caret is replaced by ↑

[turbid tinsel]

We need small things to make him react, per his own message lol

when did abc-def begin?

i might be on to something

[tulip matrix]

We have 30 times as much gold in our body than there is in the ground lol

We are the gold

[faint rivet]

How do we extract the gold from our body cuz I’m broke! Lol

[turbid tinsel]

ok so i had made a comment awhile back about rob not making making grammatical errors in any of his message and that there had to be another clue.

and i noticed it specifically on this message when he edited it on this message #easter-eggs message

and i just went back and checked

hes only edited messages in this tier

nothing before this tier

and maybe the hit was i would notice soon (or sooner or later)

and maybe we need to closely look at all the messages hes "edited"

[remote terrace]

That might be a bit far fetched lol

[turbid tinsel]

its a stretch but like rob doesn't edit other message saying hihi or Oki

specifically #easter-eggs message

but the only edits have been in this teir

im already going crazy doing this

probably not related, i found another back in February but maybe he didnt think we would look back or maybe he went back to specific dates relating to clues we would need. its definitley a stretch though

just making note of it

i mean the one back in febuary that was edited was towards the 0 with a slash through it, which is also on the c64 keyboard if im not mistaken

#easter-eggs message

hour, day, time, and year reference

[tulip matrix]

Tier 1A Images - Fire, Take Cover

Tier 1B Images - OSPUZE, OSPUZE_Candy, OSPUZE_Extra_Candy

Tier 1C Images - ISEULT_CANDY, ISEULT_CANDY_2, ISEULT_CANDY_3,

[pure loom]

This is interesting. He’s used the phrase “STAY STRONG” in capitals. This is how I sign off my videos, except I say it in Te Reo (the language of New Zealand Māori) first - “Kia kaha” then give the translation which is “stay strong.” Maybe Rob is hinting that we just need the ABC answers but all an alternative way?

[turbid tinsel]

maybe, i was confused when he first wrote it because it originally "STAY STRON" before he edited it

thats when i thought something was fishy

[pure loom]

Which to me suggests it was a typo and it was important to correct it.

[turbid tinsel]

kia mentioned here, and previous dimensions or numbers he used were for the peugot car before

[pure loom]

So, if we go that path for a moment. What could the alternatives be? 1064 could be AESTHUSA, lxxix could just be 79, and for the mendelevium code it could just be MENDELEVIUM.

[tulip matrix]

That's a long password haha

[turbid tinsel]

idk the only thing i could think of was all the clues were natural disaster related like volcano erupting in A, B was a meteor, and c would relate to a hurricane measurements i got from an earlier message

#easter-eggs message

[pure loom]

Kia (the car make) is Korean though. I don’t think we need to be looking for new paths here. Just what version of the ABC answers we use and what modification they have, if any.

[turbid tinsel]

which lead me to the hanguls not sure if you read over that or not

that i mentioned

which korean and hanguls and how the lettering is similar to some of they keys on the c64

and the way the korean olympic gold medal design looks similar to the styles on the loading and ready gifs

[pure loom]

I think this is Rob telling us exactly what we need here. 1. Spell the words correctly. 2. Use alternative versions (like STAY STRONG = KIA KAHA). 3. Keep the words general.

So, are we just using the word GOLD?

Or, 1064, lxxix and the mendelevium code individually?

Just GOLD would fit with Rob 👀ing the GOLD EGG message.

But then he agreed with the ABC answers comment too.

[tulip matrix]

GOLD
GOLDEN
AURUM
AURUS
GILT
GILDED

[tulip matrix]

Oh you know what, there's a language called Gold

[pure loom]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOLD_(parser)

[turbid tinsel]

i looked over this awhile ago but didnt look far into it seeing the first imeage in the wiki

might actually be worth the dive

[tulip matrix]

Nama

[turbid tinsel]

yo i came across something earlier that had tama in it

not sure if it is relevant though

#easter-eggs messagewas a saying in korean which lead me down the path of looking for a diamond in the rough

There is a similar saying in Japanese, tama migakasareba hikari nashi, which translates as a jewel, unless polished, will not sparkle. and uses tama

but thats a stretch imo

[pure loom]

I didn’t realise you meant an actual language. Do you have a link to that?

[tulip matrix]

https://www.frathwiki.com/Gold_language

Here's another one
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanai_language?wprov=sfla1

Two gold languages

[digital apex]

I wish next #official-art would exists

[tulip matrix]

password is not govald

It's also not eggold

[faint rivet]

I’m starting to think maybe this tier isn’t about gold at all. 😩

Brain needs a reboot

[turbid tinsel]

do we think that micron could a relevant word here to solve the password?

or path that is

and intresting one to say the least

[faint rivet]

Goldilocks and the 3 bears.
3 clues (A B C)
1 answer/key

Yup. Brain is fried now. lol

[pure loom]

Ha! I don’t think it’s this, but it’s clever nonetheless.

[faint rivet]

Yeaaa I figured. Lol.

[turbid tinsel]

do any of these look similar to our ready gif style?

[digital apex]

@turbid tinsel we need a new padlet about T2ABC for EE hunt noobs

[turbid tinsel]

also the chilean notes to me seem to have alot of resemblances in a way

yea ive been looking at that, not sure they had seen that or not yet. lol

[remote terrace]

HAve we tried aligning the glitch in that image?

I doubt it'll reveal anything if I look at it rn, but who knows

[turbid tinsel]

i think ive tried and they don't line up because the middle line is 2 big

maybe we need to subtrack the middle line and then re-look at the image

[coarse dagger]

Of note, Rob used the word brilliant in two messages, with only one other message between them.
Here's the other: #easter-eggs message

[turbid tinsel]

maybe we need to "read between the lines"

[pure loom]

Could be a reference to gold

[jade citrus]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lustre_(mineralogy)

Lustre is the way light interacts with the surface of a crystal, rock, or mineral. The word traces its origins back to the Latin lux, meaning "light", and generally implies radiance, gloss, or brilliance.

[turbid tinsel]

maybe its related to saying the word eureka when striking gold maybe

[turbid tinsel]

https://brilliant.org/wiki/set-game/

#easter-eggs message

that message is punctuated oddly

brilliant

theres a color called bright gold

what if brilliance is referring to light, the mining in the tunnel picture reference. it possible we are looking for a bright light at the end of the tunnel?

or like a bright light through a telescope

a light at the end of the tunnel
noun phrase
: a reason to believe that a bad situation will end soon or that a long and difficult job will be finished soon

man if only my game going gold reference got eyes lol

also is there anything here that can help us out lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Finals

[coarse dagger]

Here's what I'm referencing:
https://sta.c64.org/cbm64petkey.html

[timid solstice]

maybe the eyes for the keys from the C64 keyboard meant;
"c64 is the key"

[turbid tinsel]

im still lost but thats ok

lol

[coarse dagger]

https://www.c64-wiki.com/wiki/C64-Commands

In a wider sense, all C64 commands are BASIC commands.

The BASIC interpreter reports READY. and the blinking cursor shows the user that the computer is ready for input.

#easter-eggs message if you did the math on this would it not land on christmas?

6000666 seconds equals to 2 months, 1 week, 6 days, 10 hours, 51 minutes, 6 seconds

from the day and hour rob posted it?

i mean unless i did my math wrong, rob made a christmas post here #easter-eggs message

[coarse dagger]

Don't see how this could connect. The symbols are different and you'd have to know how to arrange them

[coarse dagger]

Ehh, that table is missing a lot of symbols "□"

[turbid tinsel]

What if looking at the bigger picture is looking into Gif's themselves?

The two versions can be distinguished by looking at the first six bytes of the file (the "magic number" or signature), which, when interpreted as ASCII, read "GIF87a" or "GIF89a", respectively.

maybe we need to look into this on the file of the gif itself?

The optional interlacing feature, which stores image scan lines out of order in such a fashion that even a partially downloaded image was somewhat recognizable, also helped GIF's popularity,[6] as a user could abort the download if it was not what was required

is this a hint on gif is distorted?

[faint rivet]

I can’t wait to see GOLD and EGG trending on google search. That’s us. Lol

[turbid tinsel]

Were there any other common clues between abc besides gold? Or maybe between all 6?

[pure loom]

Nothing that we spotted.

[turbid tinsel]

its it worth zooming in all the way on the gif looking for something hidden. I think i found something but it may just be related to how to picture is and i was looking at it from a different angle with my monitor tilted back

[pure loom]

you made a typo at the start of that - is it a question or a statement?

[turbid tinsel]

question lol

[pure loom]

I think we've analysed it to the best of our ability in photoshop (Rob is better than any of us (so far) though).

[turbid tinsel]

some parts of the bottom line in the are sectioned out differently here like theres a little notch or notches

and this may sound dumb, but if you get low when tying to look at this and "try to look underneath it" some brighter dots start to stand out and almost look Morse code-ish. this is my first tier so idk how hard rob has really tried hiding clues but im so ready to move on to looking for something else lol.

[pure loom]

Those are interesting marks. They seem to continue faintly to the right

[hidden nacelle]

oh nvm

😆

ye its morse code

--...

theres more

[jade citrus]

👀

[hidden nacelle]

seems like the code goes all the way too the other side

i got ''TTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTE'' 🤔

[coarse dagger]

Sorry that's morse? I'm not seeing it

[turbid tinsel]

Wait so I wasnt just seeing things?

[hidden nacelle]

nope

[turbid tinsel]

Wow, well if that's the case the another weird spot on the cursor as well, Ill try to see if I can find the spot

[hidden nacelle]

idk if its just the filter im using but looks like alot more morse code idk

[turbid tinsel]

this is the bottom left corner of the cursor theres something behind those, you can see them if you get low and try to look underneath

[coarse dagger]

I mean, dithering will often look like morse

And filters & image manipulation can enhance that appearance

[turbid tinsel]

yea could be nothing but idk what else to look at lol

[coarse dagger]

You keep saying "look underneath".
What are you talking about?

[turbid tinsel]

like lower your head to the keyboard and looking up

[coarse dagger]

My man that is a 2d image

[turbid tinsel]

like your trying to look behind it, unless its just the way my monitor is

like when i was looking at it from down low, the lighting on the image was less bright and you can almost see darker background images in the gradient

could just be the way monitors are and pixels are and im just over examining

[hidden nacelle]

i think you just see the long rectangles

am i seeing numbers to the right? 🤔

[coarse dagger]

I feel like I definitely see a 4

[tidal mulch]

or a b

[hidden nacelle]

there is definitely morse code starting at the bottom left

[coarse dagger]

Of what? Frame 2 of READY?

[hidden nacelle]

#easter-eggs message this image Itk sent

[coarse dagger]

K... I need to know where it's from to help lol

[leaden stirrup]

Anyone noticed the cursor in the "READY" gif is pasted from the "LOADING" gif ?

[timid solstice]

yes

its the same cut and pasted but the loading is a different compression than the ready so it doesnt match

[ripe cloud]

After the c64 shows "Ready" what do you type to get to the software you're trying to run? Load"Softwarename",(devicenumber) How could the existing t1abc answers fit that format?

[timid solstice]

load"$",8

load"gold",8

list

[turbid tinsel]

This was what I was trying to explain, this the bottom left of the cursor. Wife had the idea of taking a picture from that angle

[fallen jasper]

looks kinda sus ye

[neon stream]

Monitor with built-in EE hunting tools 😛

Do you see Discovery Corp written somewhere in your monitor...?

[turbid tinsel]

has anyone actually noticed that on the ready gif, that it looks like parts were just cut out rather than an image skewed?

and R,E,D, all have that sameish white rectangle/box missing on the left side

as well as same looking pattern almost

harder to notice on the E but its there

[tulip matrix]

Imagine if C64 had a program called Forrestrun

To use it you would have to input

[daring bluff]

you guys have seen the steam page image changes right?

probably doesnt mean anything for EE ppl but still

[turbid tinsel]

what you mean?

[tulip matrix]

these?

[hidden nacelle]

no they just removed the sponsors and the website

[turbid tinsel]

have these images been looked in for easter eggs?

[daring bluff]

it looked to also be a bit “blurrier” on the bottom grey bar as well

which is why i asked in here

they could have added anything

[hidden nacelle]

no they are just art for the steam page

[turbid tinsel]

i have noticed that this image and a couple others are in the pinned google folder in the wiki

that they are under the easter eggs portion

but they are in there as screenshots

[hidden nacelle]

ye some of those are just art for the game and have nothing to do with the ee

[turbid tinsel]

are there any new eyes or anything? havent heard or seen anything from rob in a bit

has rob hidden any Autostereograms in images?

not sure if its possible on a computer but the idea would be cool

[solar glade]

FYI the Wiki Assets folder is not Embark made, it's literally me sharing the assets we use in the Wiki design

it has nothing to do with EE, and it is only organized per the Wiki. literally just a dump of my files on Google Drive

https://devrant.com/rants/1023092/did-you-know-there-is-an-easter-egg-in-the-unix-man-command-if-you-call-it-at-ex

maybe this is the egg reference here?

and our c64 reference

LUnix (short for "Little Unix") is a Unix-like multi-tasking operating system designed to run natively on the Commodore 64 and Commodore 128 home computer systems. It supports TCP/IP networking (SLIP or PPP using an RS-232 interface).

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/dec/17/is-the-year-2038-problem-the-new-y2k-bug

are there spaces in the password?

[pure loom]

There shouldn't be any spaces

[timid solstice]

There could be in Tier 2

btw @pure loom this part made me giggle
https://youtu.be/NJHRrPF8as4?t=630

[pure loom]

Egg yolks took us to egg yolks

[timid solstice]

sorry actually it was confirmed for this whole ee-hunt

[turbid tinsel]

What if the glue to gold and egg is what makes the yolk a goldish color

https://www.organicvalley.coop/blog/what-does-egg-yolk-color-mean/

In here it mentions vitamin A,B, and a Spade which is also a key on the c64 keyboard

And spades would be used to dig for gold

[timid solstice]

in that article it smentions "in spades"

thats just a phrase unless you mean something else

[turbid tinsel]

Maybe the bigger clue is spades itself, a lot of references on spaces like planes and other things

Idk I'm grasping at anything

[turbid tinsel]

Ok guys, binary or 2 has been a theme here right in this tier

What if it's related to what they need to eat for the golden color

And needing to eat tumeric

Tumeric fed to chickens can add to the color of yolk and help chickens produce more eggs

[turbid tinsel]

Some gold looking caviar. Or in other words gold eggs

Called Ikura, from salmon. Big in Japan

Rich in omega 3's

[turbid tinsel]

There's also a restaurant in Brooklyn that's know for selling caviar called "the commodore"

Probably just a dumb coincidence after all of the wild theories I've cooked up

Also located next to a painting place and a photo booth and oddly looks like the gif

#easter-eggs message

Please tell me this is just an odd coincidence

79 Western Ave N, Saint Paul, MN 55102-4601

W from ETA Cassiopeia constellation could refer to west here

Gold is au79

Yo if this is just the biggest coincidence of a lifetime I'm seriously going to go crazy here

Someone validate this

@pure loom

[pure loom]

My guess is that is just a coincidence. Rob tries to avoid associating the EEs with current brands or businesses for legal reasons. Sometimes there might be a little nod to something like this, but I 99.99% guarantee he wouldn't associate a password with it.

[turbid tinsel]

What if there's more here related to the password

Not a brand but something else based on the location or street or something here?

[pure loom]

Honestly, I still think it won't be something that far from what we already have - gold, egg, and some modification of one or both of those (or words closely associated with them) to derive the password.

[turbid tinsel]

Even the street appears on an angle like the lines dissecting the gif

Gold and egg

Caviar

A meteor and volcano erupting is what made the dinosaurs extinct. Only real thing that would of survived is fish eggs

Or fish in general

Due to the ash in the air

And there's even an ashland street

[pure loom]

Lots survived the extinction that killed off the dinosaurs - in fact, some dinosaurs did - avian dinosaurs (aka birds), mammals, lots of invertebrates etc

[turbid tinsel]

True but man... This is the craziest coincidence I've ever seen

[pure loom]

Welcome to our world! hahaha. I've seen some real crazy ones in here - I had a whole group associated with Asterix comics for Tier 1D (iirc)

@turbid tinsel Looking back at all the tiers, getting close to the correct words for the password is easy - and GOLD is probably the odds-on favourite right now, with GOLDEGG a close second. However, the modifier of the password - like replaced letters, the answer in another language, and so on, is the really tricky bit. I reckon we're better off just hammering away at trying to figure that out around the word GOLD than looking for new paths to explore. In Tier 1F we had "yolk" really early on, but it took us ages to work out it was in Latin with some leet modifier.

Finding new paths is fun, especially with some of the crazy coincidences that come up. But it seems that Occam's Razor is almost always the way to go with the answers.

[turbid tinsel]

If any of it gets eyes. I've got a path i followed specifically with caviar that might give answers, but I'm down to Montezuma II For tonight. Regardless I'm just learning pointless things lol

[pure loom]

Yeah, so true - I could be wrong, in which case with the detail you've posted Rob will likely 👀 it if it is a correct path

I'll buy you a game charm if it is correct! 🙂

[turbid tinsel]

I'm doubtful. But if so only thing I want is to move to the next tier lol. But I'll hang onto some hope

[coarse dagger]

Models with the C64E board had the graphic symbols printed on the top of the keys, instead of the normal location on the front.
Is rob trying to point us to the C64E?

[coarse dagger]

From mid-1987 on, only the smaller C64E board was used. These models featured a keyboard with revised keycaps with a different font and the PETSCII symbols printed on the top. Because of this, it is possible to identify which board is inside the computer without needing to open it up.

https://www.c64-wiki.com/wiki/Motherboard#E

[coarse dagger]

@turbid tinsel

C64 PCB Assy250469 Schematic252311
and there are revisions 1,2,3,4,A,B

[coarse dagger]

Looks like there's also schmatic 252312

Posting this just in case:

The C64E board revision is notable in that it consolidated a number of IC chips and featured a revised VIC-II.

Perhaps one of the most notable changes was the introduction of the 8580 SID chip, which uses a lower voltage (9V DC compared to 12V DC on the 6581) on its secondary voltage rail and a revised filter, giving it a different sound compared to the original 6581 SID.

[coarse dagger]

In terms of chip consolidation, the C64E board features the following changes:

The RAM is now made up of two 41464 chips as opposed to eight chips on older revisions.

The two 8 KB ROM chips for BASIC and the kernal have been combined into a single 16 KB ROM chip (251913-01).

The PLA and some TTL chips have been integrated into a 64-pin ASIC (251715-01 or 252535-01). The "252535-01" revision also contains the color RAM.

Hmm the aspect ratio of the isolated background color is close to PCB 250469, but not quite there...

Hmm

The backround cutout is a bit reminicent of the cutout space for the keyboard in the C64... I wonder if we need to find the right computer or the right variant....

Althought it doesn't really look like you could fit a key in some of that white space on the right:

[pure loom]

Yeah, I think it’s something we haven’t figured out yet

It almost looks like an outline for a 2D game

[coarse dagger]

I was thinking about that too. One imperfection that makes me think that's unlikely is the slightly different Y coordinates for that notch in the upper left.

And also makes a computer case or PCB cutout unliikely

[coarse dagger]

Welp I just spent.... wayyyy too long doing something I don't think will be useful, but here it is:

Pixel counts of all the lines in the background color outline

X values = {0/1, 72/73, 222/223, 336/337, 663/664, 739/740, 751/752}
Y values = {97/98, 114/115, 115/116, 146/147, 161/162, 279/280, 302/303, 350/351}

[coarse dagger]

The fact that Rob's never acknowledged this outline though makes me wonder if we should just drop it

[sharp flame]

he has iirc

by saying there's a few small things hidden in the gif, (but we are READY)

that outline is probably the main thing he meant

[coarse dagger]

That's quite an assumption

[pure loom]

And/or the ZX Spectrum logo

[coarse dagger]

Again something Rob hasn't acknowledged... hmmm

[hidden nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/vincent-price-vintage-gif-12334395443932200375

[sharp flame]

probably because it's some side path

which isn't at all necessary

and, again, we have all we need

without going into any rabbit holes

[leaden stirrup]

idk 😂

[quasi violet]

guys you know how in the CB2 trailer there is a couple frames that sais. GOOD EVENING !
THIS BROADCAST HAS BEEN HACKED BY CNS
[ SEEK THE TRUTH BEYOND THE WALLS !]. In this picture i thought that there might be something with the way the gun sort of starts to fade away and the last part of the message, [ SEEK THE TRUTH BEYOND THE WALLS !]. Could i be onto something?

Btw you have to be moving the gun around the screens on the map to see this

[sharp flame]

I think that's a rendering thing

[quasi violet]

i thought it was ghosting but i dont think so as it is just that artifact in that speceific instance that does this effect

[sharp flame]

well we can always explore it later

but if you zoom in the thing in the screen is just an enlarged version of your gun

[quasi violet]

yeah casue if you move the gun around anywhere else but the screens. nothing its just normal

[quasi violet]

but why does it leave some sort of markers

by that i mean why is it leaving previous frames of the gun

and if you look closely below the screen there is some fram around my arm and gun

[sharp flame]

visual glitch in a beta isn't too crazy but yeah worth looking into

[quasi violet]

but that could be cause im using invis class

[sharp flame]

well it would have been worth looking into if we could still test it out 😭

[quasi violet]

i should have tested it with grapple or smt

NOOOOoooooo

[sharp flame]

but something to come back to frfr

[quasi violet]

mhm lol

but like you can see here its almost like the invis outlines but i dont have the ability active

[sharp flame]

we need to get this damn password 😭

all we need to do is try things

dig wide not deep 🧠

[quasi violet]

big words

[sharp flame]

password is the longest word there and it's shorter than your username 😭

unless you mean try big words for the password

[tulip matrix]

Looks like SSR is probably causing a ghosting issue

[quasi violet]

could be.

but then again it only happens when near screens

[sharp flame]

gah I hate ssr

[fallen jasper]

Ooooo they doing stuff on steam

[leaden stirrup]

cb3 ?

full release ????

[fallen jasper]

After 3 month they changing up stuff

[tulip matrix]

Makes sense because the screens are reflective

[fallen jasper]

Who knows

[tulip matrix]

I like that they are at least dynamic but then it causes weird artifacts like that. A balance of SSR and cubemaps is good

[ember aurora]

They removed 2 things in bottom left of each photo, reachthefinals.com and the logo to the left of that, not sure what it was for.

[sharp flame]

The two sponsor logos, I see

probably preparing for release, maybe since those two sponsors won't be the only ones in the game anymore 👀

[ember aurora]

Oh true. That’s definitely one reason, I hope you are right and my assumption, I will keep to myself, is wrong.

[sharp flame]

haha go on

this is the theory channel

[sharp flame]

either that or we'll be seeing some new ones instead of these ones

[neon stream]

Hmmm I guess the first one is more likely, since the are a few cosmetics tied to OSPUZE and Iseul-t

Can't wait to play THE FINALS again 😭

[fallen jasper]

man i just wanna play it too

it looks so good

[fallen jasper]

CMS know something

[turbid tinsel]

looking around in here, playtest information was updated yesterday

there was a time modification set to a date that was 4 days (now 5) days ago. but if your updating something on the 24th why would the date not be the 24th. is this a clue or something?

[daring bluff]

am i tripping or is this the first time i’ve seen an “accept cookies” pop up on the website

[bleak field]

your tripping

[daring bluff]

ok just making sure

normally i am

the finals withdrawals are at an all time peak

i need to enter back into the cycle

take another hit

[timid solstice]

maybe, I did notice that the other versions had the symbols on the front edge so could be a specific clue path

[turbid tinsel]

heres a list of a ton of boards and a couple prototypes http://www.c-64.org/de/mainboards.html

there's definitely some sort of hidden background image, something in the eye, possible bunch of text at the bottom.

[hidden nacelle]

another new image 😮

[turbid tinsel]

play test coming soon pretty sure

[flint cloak]

you guys are getting Christmas early it seems lmao

[crude topaz]

this might be hard

2nd image we have some 0's in the hat

[pure loom]

Is that a barcode on the hat??

[quiet silo]

The thing in the middle of the background looks like the penrose triangle

The art got released like 18 minutes ago and you guys are already looking so deep

I’m proud of ya’ll

[hidden nacelle]

another cipher 🤔

[kind quartz]

the stuff that looks like text at the bottom is super blurry, could be some kind of pattern instead

[turbid tinsel]

theres another hidden image in the 2nd photo in the top left

[pure loom]

Looks a bit like those stripes from the READY image again

👀

Flowers in the neck area. Variety?

Maybe orchid

[kind quartz]

wasnt the flower tattoos a cosmetic?

[pure loom]

Yes, but that doesn’t mean we should ignore the obvious, necessarily.

[quiet silo]

Carnation variety maybe?

[turbid tinsel]

https://29a.ch/photo-forensics/#forensic-magnifier is what im using if anyone wants to know

[quiet silo]

Jagged edged petal on some of them mark it

Peony actually I think

Center matches well with the petal structure I think

[pure loom]

Carnations have packed frilly petals. Looks a little like a hibiscus

[pure loom]

Yeah, could be

[quiet silo]

Nah you're right the petals open too wide

Not packed enough in the center

Magnolia then maybe...

[turbid tinsel]

what if the previous images that were updated were to remove the sponsors from the faded rectangle below so we could better search for clues in that area?

[golden anchor]

what about that dots do we have anything on that?

[hidden nacelle]

seems like a cipher

not sure

[kind quartz]

could it be sheet music?

[faint rivet]

Braille?

[mental hawk]

half the dots are filled in

[mental hawk]

also that can't be braille right? I can't find a match in the alphabet for the first letter

[timid solstice]

my first thoughts were notes

[inland bloom]

this mean fox in italian

[turbid tinsel]

nothing here shows that hidden image in the top left so still something worth looking at there maybe?

[timid solstice]

maybe c64 sounds

https://youtu.be/uRrhi5C_RCY

[mental hawk]

yeah but what notes? we don't have a staff so I don't think we can recognize the pitch

maybe the length of each note then

[jade citrus]

something weird in the trailer, reminds me of the initial Seoul tease

[turbid tinsel]

isnt there a machine that plays music by a metal piece turning and catching random lifted spots?

[sharp flame]

oooh yeah

[timid solstice]

need it on the press kit

unless anyone can use a 4k youtube downloader

brand guide got updated btw

[clear steeple]

So many Easter eggs to open up

[coral wing]

[jade citrus]

[coral wing]

Oml i need to catch up

[timid solstice]

[jade citrus]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iFFw_uUZ1IfeO-GdCoKS7b7fHPf_2Qb-

[timid solstice]

thanks! no idea how I couldnt see that!

[limpid mural]

Well this channel is going to be wild

oh, we already got something

[crude topaz]

this aged well

[sharp flame]

got a few more

[mental hawk]

is that just Seoul and Monaco welded together

[timid solstice]

Skyway Stadium

[turbid tinsel]

EYES

[timid solstice]

[nimble iron]

[timid solstice]

Frame list WIP

Frame000483
maybe Frame000561
Frame000772
Frame000836
Frame001128

[sly pelican]

im lost about what y'all are looking for in these frames

[bleak field]

easter eggs

[jade citrus]

new yolks when they read the name of the channel

[sly pelican]

no i understand but most frames y'all are sharing got about nothing in them

[sharp flame]

looks SO COOL

[sharp flame]

they have stuff, in the corners, pieces of a secret image

like last trailer

[turbid tinsel]

9 would fit the first box here possibly no? based on how the height is presented in the photo itself?

[mental hawk]

yeah but the things are at the bottom

not the top

unless it's shifted down one but that'd be kinda stupid if it was braille

[turbid tinsel]

he eyed your message

[pure loom]

@proud minnow too many eyeballs at once hahaha

[mental hawk]

that either means "yes, it's not braille" or "maybe there's something here"

[turbid tinsel]

i dont think it would have gotten eyes if it wasnt braile but i could be wrong though

[pure loom]

Is it upside down?

[mental hawk]

you still get some that don't match

like the two dots at the top

[turbid tinsel]

maybe the sections are flipped

like mirrored in some way

[mental hawk]

ooh yeah wait

[jade citrus]

scuffed

[mental hawk]

like this?

idk

[turbid tinsel]

as in braile is done in 2 rows of 3, so maybe each row of 2 needs to be altered

or 2 colums and 3 rows

[mental hawk]

altered how though is the question

[turbid tinsel]

like maybe the first set is upside down or mirrored

and then the second set is something flipped or mirrored

ect

[nimble iron]

all of them are the same screenshot

color adjusted and rotated/flipped

[faint rivet]

Bottom right looks like a whiteboard with sticky notes

[sly pelican]

white/black could indicate the orientation for the reading, if black means left and white right, L S could match, whatever this means.

[mental hawk]

yes it could be LS but just no idea what that would be for

[turbid tinsel]

can you rotate this?

so its the top right corner

[mental hawk]

oh hello I'm red now that's pretty poggers

[remote terrace]

that's just the new map, but upside down

[turbid tinsel]

ahh

[nimble iron]

why? its skyway stadium

[turbid tinsel]

i just put that together

lol

[jade citrus]

what we thinkin

looks like a saloon kinda

with that one skin for the Model 1887

[remote terrace]

mexico map?

[turbid tinsel]

train station or central plaza of a train station maybe?

a saloon wouldnt have skywindows no?

[jade citrus]

no clue, i dont often visit saloons

[sly pelican]

looks like a mall to me

[nimble iron]

it is

[sly pelican]

maybe just a big place with smaller shop areas

[nimble iron]

fish is cookin a phat screenie rn

[pure loom]

yes, it does!

[turbid tinsel]

a central train station or mall would have more opportunities to use destruction

[nimble iron]

lookin absolutely bangin, just wait

[turbid tinsel]

it is the 2nd floor of something though

[pure loom]

was it only you who pieced this together? I want to credit it correctly, if I show it in a video.

[jade citrus]

yeah it was just me. you should wait until fish posts his version, I'm sure it will be better than mine

[pure loom]

ok, cool - I have a day's worth of work to go through the trailer anyways

[sharp flame]

got it

[sharp flame]

❤️ we can compare after haha

[timid solstice]

could be like a hotel lobby

The 5-star Gran Hotel Ciudad de México features in both Licence to Kill (1989) and SPECTRE (2015).

[sharp flame]

did this w/ @nimble iron too!

[pure loom]

ah, a bit extra! Great!

[sharp flame]

spent way too long trying to get things pixel perfect

@jade citrus gets total credit for doing it much faster than I could've 😭

[pure loom]

I'll credit all three of you in the vid

[timid solstice]

is that needed? no offence but dont think you did last time
https://youtu.be/D_orfMnjpB4?t=431

[sharp flame]

I want to be immortalised tho 🕵️

[nimble iron]

Thanks!

[timid solstice]

we are a community

[fallen jasper]

Kinda reminds me of a riverboat

[sharp flame]

but I don't need credit for being contributing to our collective knowledge pool

[sharp flame]

Art Deco vibes ? from the pillars

[fallen jasper]

Yeah

[pure loom]

Maybe I should just say "members of the community" again then. All good either way.

[fallen jasper]

Those curtains remind me a lot of art deco green curtains

[sharp flame]

haha yeah since this was more a "first to the post" kinda thing instead of solving a tier

okay so what city are we in

[timid solstice]

I would have loved to help more but was at work

[pure loom]

"Here's an image that was put together by everyone except for Flex"

jk

[fallen jasper]

Got that late 1800-1930s feeling design to it

Although those barstool style is

1950s?

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/late-mr-bean-rowan-atkinson-wake-up-morning-gif-4529614

I'm like this when the trailer comes out because I know there are EEs in it that we can use in this channel, but I need to make the trailer breakdown too - it's information overload!

[hidden nacelle]

looks like a western style map, they are also using the model 1887 with that skin

[pure loom]

It could be a fully 1800s style map

no restrictions on time periods for the maps is a good thing imo

[timid solstice]

you are the go to easy to digest source I feel for new infos tbh for the "outside"
appreciate the work you do

[sharp flame]

we've yet to see them even try that but it would be craaaaazy

Rob said anything can happen 👀

[pure loom]

INB4 a map set in the Byzan....

https://tenor.com/view/the-universe-tim-and-eric-mind-blown-mind-blown-meme-mind-explosion-mind-explosion-meme-gif-18002878

[hidden nacelle]

reminds me of the cod zombies origins step to upgrade the staff, if yous know what im talking about 😆

[mental hawk]

I just want to see like a really aggressively gothic themed map

[hidden nacelle]

heres what im talking about

[turbid tinsel]

there is a relatively huge mall next to seoul

called starfield

[fallen jasper]

lets go

[turbid tinsel]

Taubman Asia Debuts Largest Western-style Mall in South Korea

[turbid tinsel]

what you find? i found a few things up above

[sharp flame]

THE_FINALS_Screenshot_015_3840x2160_F
THE_FINALS_Screenshot_019_3840x2160_F

The F at the end is interesting

and the 015 and 019 look like Unicode or ASCII designation

[turbid tinsel]

yea someone else mentioned it above idr what we thought about it yet though

[proud minnow]

Wow, this looks amazing.! I wonder what this is all about.?!

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/western-clint-eastwood-smoke-gif-17199771

[proud minnow]

BTW - remember that we will run an OPEN Beta tomorrow... that means that it is allowed to hide real important things in there since EVERYONE can join... GLHF.!

[sharp flame]

"real important things" 👀 👀

[turbid tinsel]

so many easter eggs to find

i wish i could just seen the room where robs got arrows connecting to everything lol

[proud minnow]

Anything for you EE-hunters... you know that right..!?

[turbid tinsel]

You're the G.O.A.T rob

[faint rivet]

Purple pic has gold glasses. Gold frames 🤔
?????

[solar glade]

lore?

[pure loom]

some letters on the bottom edge of these trousers in the trailer

[sharp flame]

we had that set before alr I think

[pure loom]

ah v good

[jade citrus]

did anyone spot Frank the Pug in this trailer?

maybe its more well hidden than the other ones

[pure loom]

not yet

[proud minnow]

❤️ FRANK ❤️

[pure loom]

I'm only 18 seconds in so far

already have nearly 700 words of script haha

[proud minnow]

only 700...?!

[pure loom]

works out about 3000 for the trailer at this rate lol

[coral wing]

RobW and rockW

[worn badger]

[digital apex]

I finally met legend Rob.. Thanks to you, I learned astronomy, chemistry, history, and even Korean. I shouldnt have stared EE hunts

But I was very happy because the quality of the puzzle was good

[coarse dagger]

Rob finally said "Guess you weren't ready"

[coarse dagger]

I'd bet that's teasing a new game mode! Coin battle! Like in Smash

[coarse dagger]

A good reason to try to separately post images and your analysis of them. Now we don't know if he was eyeing the image, the analysis, or both

[timid solstice]

if its eyed, its all correct

[coarse dagger]

According to Google lens it's Korean for "Coin File Clinic"

[timid solstice]

but I see your point "cant be braile" got eyed

[coarse dagger]

"Do not lean" 😅

Smaller letters illegible

New (?) panda (?) backpack

Hmm... Dark swipe frame at 1:09 has had a slightly unnatural looking bit

In the upper right potion of the brightest area

Do we already know what DS is?

[coarse dagger]

Struggling to get a Google Lensable angle on this Korean. Looks like below might be English... A name maybe?

[timid solstice]

Please ------

[coarse dagger]

That looks like the same Korean there (I posted an unreversed back view of the glass).
#easter-eggs message

"Please do not lean" is my guess

[timid solstice]

Please Do Not Lean

yeah probably

[turbid tinsel]

when i have free time after work tonight ill see if my easter egg hunting monitor can spot any oddities

[coarse dagger]

Think it's worth counting these white squares?

1:09

[digital apex]

Oh how did you read it?

for image translation system?

[jade citrus]

could just be YouTube compression error

[coarse dagger]

Reversed it and used google lens

[digital apex]

yeah das right

[jade citrus]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iFFw_uUZ1IfeO-GdCoKS7b7fHPf_2Qb-

[coarse dagger]

Possible, the whole frame is a dark bitrate nightmare... but that one portion I zoomed on stood out

[jade citrus]

if you download the version in the google drive it will be full quality

[coarse dagger]

Oooh

[jade citrus]

ew my name is red now

gross

[coarse dagger]

Time to become a finalist
