easter-eggs

[brazen drift]

Go look at all the stuff about deviled eggs

[hasty anvil]

yeah close to release date i don't blame them

[brazen drift]

We’re talking about different things I see

[tough vault]

i guess

its an evil world we live in

quote from Future

the goat

[hard current]

@rigid magnet slow couple days in here too and I’m out of ideas currently:(

[sharp flame]

dw! we get these periods all the tiime

[rigid magnet]

Ah damn :/ I'm not smart enough for any of this LOL, I watched @pure loom 's video to try and catch up and I was just sitting there like

[sharp flame]

Don't worry, there's not much clues we have at the moment!

technically a good thing cause we can focus!

we have 2 images, and haven't found any hidden phrases or codes in them yet

[hard current]

sure you are, I’m lowkey a dumbass 🙂 and EVERY perspective no matter intelligence or background can help

[rigid magnet]

Ya but I've tried to take a look at a few of the things and maybe give my insight but I literally cant comprehend them LMAO

[sharp flame]

lmfao that's probably the incomprehensible stuff.. I've gotten this far without going too deep into that stuff

heard people talking about the genesis of the universe as an EE clue 😭

[rigid magnet]

I see well I'll try again later when I have the time to look at it everything o7

[rigid magnet]

LMAO like the numbers and symbols and stuff 😭

[rigid magnet]

Huhhhhh? 😭

[sharp flame]

EXACTLY bro.. you don't need that stuff to "get it" haha

[rigid magnet]

LMAOOOOAO I'll look into it later when I have the time, any good place to start looking? Maybe something you guys would like a different view on?

[sharp flame]

by the way found an older T1ABC recap that I was working on

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Pg6xL6EIZx5Hnn3piikhZUZG9SX79DBuxdh9xuh7zOw/edit?usp=sharing <<

[rapid lake]

Is there a reason why red is upside down cross, blue the cross and green a plus ?

[sharp flame]

we coloured them so we could tell them apart, they are the same colour

[rapid lake]

Ok but the symbols are originally different

( I want to get involved if I am allowed bc nothing makes fun to play)

[hard current]

they were all originally white

well… white is what they were when someone found them in the edited image

[brazen drift]

Identification

Not in base img

[upbeat ridge]

I know nothing as well, we can help😎

[wet lodge]

Thats just a color coding to make it easy to identify. The original image just has the outline of the crosses

Hey man, we all in this together with no idea as to what we doing rn. But you get the hang of it as you go along. Just start throwing theories and connect them with each other for example a little above the theory of 666 with 6 different crosses connecting to other peoples theories and answers

[silver ruin]

In Christianity, 666 is referred to in (most manuscripts of) chapter 13 of the Book of Revelation of the New Testament as the "number of the beast." dont know if that helps

green cross is greek red is saint peters and blue is latin or romen

any recocnise the paatern of the crosses (completad)

[brazen drift]

huh?

[silver ruin]

well green crosses are always in a greeen square

[brazen drift]

Original img

[silver ruin]

ment the plus sized crosses are formed one time in a square

[brazen drift]

Also there are two in other places

[upbeat ridge]

Konami code

(I have no idea)

[silver ruin]

if u do that patter one the other alone standing plus crosses and the 4 times cross up and 4 times crosses down but like mirror it u get a pattern like abelt

sry for my sentence structur

[brazen drift]

Is there a belt in any previous images?

[brazen drift]

All g

[silver ruin]

idk maybe?

[brazen drift]

Lots of ammo belts

[silver ruin]

xd yess

it could also be something like the stripes one the side of like almis every picture

im confused

[brazen drift]

Interesting, never looked at that fully before

Eh idk

The colors are irrelevant

[silver ruin]

yeah

[brazen drift]

What I’m taking away are the religions and places

Feel free to follow a different line of thinking though

[silver ruin]

prob all i just said is bs tbh

[silver ruin]

those crosses have charachkter or symboles around them

[brazen drift]

they do?

Show

[silver ruin]

yup

[silver ruin]

open it in browser and look very closley

[brazen drift]

K

Hold on

[silver ruin]

second cross from the left is pretty clearly

[brazen drift]

Oh shit

You’re right

I see smth

Idk what but I see it

[silver ruin]

how do u get a pic in da chat?

[brazen drift]

Rising star rank

If u dm me I’ll send it

[silver ruin]

looks like a frog holding a flag

but realy weird

[brazen drift]

I’ll run some tests on the img later

[hasty anvil]

thats definitely something

i see it

[brazen drift]

Noise map and shit

[hasty anvil]

it looks like 2d characters

maybe c64 game characters

[silver ruin]

that game console?

[hasty anvil]

yeah we had a past c64 clue

commodore 64

[brazen drift]

Hmm

[hasty anvil]

some closer ones

[brazen drift]

Error level analysis

All other analyses look the same for the most part

Here’s noise analysis as well

[silver ruin]

its a sneake?

[hasty anvil]

reminds me of space invaders

[silver ruin]

true

but they all got something like legs

i think we can rule out the everythink exept the white lines

[brazen drift]

Where’s the rest of the img? It’s that one with the panda @hasty anvil

[hasty anvil]

top left frog, top right crab

uhhhhh

yeah the panda bottom right

[brazen drift]

Panda mask

[hasty anvil]

right

[brazen drift]

Ik where’s the image

Nvm found it

[silver ruin]

it looks like a endscreen after u played the game

if its a game

[brazen drift]

Hm

[hasty anvil]

it could be hint to past tier, but would be nice to work it out

[brazen drift]

Error level then noise analysis

Hidden text in noise analysis

[silver ruin]

and figures

[hidden nacelle]

i think thats a new clue

[brazen drift]

Let’s go

[hidden nacelle]

i dont remember us finding that

[brazen drift]

Those are numbers upside down on the panda

[silver ruin]

12 44

0100

[hidden nacelle]

but i vividly remember seeing something on the rope but couldnt see it

[sharp flame]

we found that lol

[hidden nacelle]

oh we did?

[sharp flame]

That's Telford Bridge coords

[hard current]

check padlet I think it was found and used

[brazen drift]

Oh nvm

[silver ruin]

2812

[brazen drift]

Used

[hidden nacelle]

i dont remember seeing that 😆

[silver ruin]

57

[brazen drift]

Dammit

[brazen drift]

It don’t matter no more

[hard current]

check padlet I could be wrong, I just can’t check rn cause dinner time

[silver ruin]

xd

[brazen drift]

I’m boutta do this to all the images later

And y’all can tell me if it’s used

Cause I can’t find things on paddler sometimes

Padlet*

[sharp flame]

all I'll say is I don't think we'll need any more hidden codes/clues in older images

[brazen drift]

Okie

[sharp flame]

happy to recap any stuff tho

or see any new finds

[hard current]

not even the golden clues? tho I suppose we never got any confirmation on if those are real

[sharp flame]

no point looking for them when there is a decent chance he was talking about other stuff

or maybe stuff we'd already found

[brazen drift]

):

[sharp flame]

"golden clues" might just be the clues we alr found relating to gold

I think trying to decipher the diamond clue we already have might be worth some time though

[brazen drift]

Which is…

[sharp flame]

https://reachthefinals.com/burrw

[brazen drift]

Hm

[sharp flame]

finding the 2nd important message in this one

apart from YMF292

[hard current]

well that’s a diamond clue for the final level right

[brazen drift]

Also has anyone analyzed the background of the previous password website

[sharp flame]

could be for the finale of this tier also

if they relate

[tough vault]

how are the big brains doing

W in the chat or what

[brazen drift]

Eh

[rapid lake]

Anyone else seen this ? In the pulsating banner on top of the page

[hard current]

checkout the diamond clue padlet, there’s numbers and letters going all the way across one on each frame for the first 1-7 I think?

[rapid lake]

Oh ok

[tough vault]

damn

SO

sofar we got 666 in from difrent languages

thats what i understood last

right ?

[brazen drift]

We are lookin at other stuff now

[tough vault]

so that was dead end?

[brazen drift]

You can’t look away from this chat for long during peak hours

For now

[tough vault]

yeah had some work to do unfortunatly

also am in europe so time zone is off

[brazen drift]

I mean you can but your going to be lost

[tough vault]

im lost

every time

i come

to that

channel

but its aigh

[tough vault]

new clue on that

could it be coordinates

[brazen drift]

It’s old

Used

And it was coords

[plucky hill]

so whats going on with this whole thing

[brazen drift]

So didn’t sega make mega man

Coulda sworn we were talking about mega man earlier from some image manipulation

Anyone remember that?

[hard current]

yeah about an image hidden behind the painting in one of the tiers

but nobody agreed that it looked like mega man

[hard current]

-easteregg

[brazen drift]

And the chip Ymf 292 was in sega Saturn

[hard current]

wth is the command lmao

yes

[brazen drift]

It’s not working

[tough vault]

what does mega man have to do in here

[brazen drift]

Sooo

[hard current]

#egg-hunt-onboarding

[brazen drift]

Can you link that?

Can’t find it

[hard current]

#1176727687063154748 message

[tough vault]

since rob worked very close in easter eggs for Battlefield

maybe we can look into some battlefield easter eggs that have been solved

could reverse engeneer the methods

no idea if its a good plan

but

it could lead somwhere

[hard current]

it could be extremely time consuming

[tough vault]

yes

very true

[brazen drift]

I kinda see it but not really

[tough vault]

hahahaha

i cant see anything

[brazen drift]

Has a white looking mask

[tough vault]

i see that

but mega man

idk

[hasty anvil]

#easter-eggs message

this is the face

[brazen drift]

Are you kidding me

We were talking about this

[tough vault]

that makes more sense lmao

[brazen drift]

For awhile

[tough vault]

ahahah

i cant

this too funny

[brazen drift]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1011929497139953744/1028039390234165379/Screen_Shot_2022-10-07_at_4.21.26_PM.png?ex=65737aca&is=656105ca&hm=7cef90c47d5b455c47446c8615e6469df4961c240ec2243058e07a8eaa42522d&

sighs never mind

[tough vault]

hahahaha

[unborn pilot]

So I don’t see any mentions of Chronograms but it’s a way to hide years & dates in Roman Numerals

[brazen drift]

Interesting

[unborn pilot]

Usually on statues and guess what I found

[brazen drift]

What’s hidden in vivivi

[brazen drift]

What?

[unborn pilot]

Our one statue of namatama

Veni Vidi Ludere = 1063

[tough vault]

dayum

[brazen drift]

I think that was used

Right?

[tough vault]

hmm

[brazen drift]

@hard current

We used 1064

[unborn pilot]

1064 was. And the clue Rob left said 1063.

[brazen drift]

I see

[unborn pilot]

Only other date I could find was 2001 in Ego Sum Qui Sum = 2001

[brazen drift]

1063

Anything significant with the number

[unborn pilot]

1064 was the very first answer

[brazen drift]

MLXIII

[unborn pilot]

But this statue was given as a clue in t1d I believe or e

[brazen drift]

Yeah I thought it was used

[unborn pilot]

Whoops. Lemme find the actual link. Not the image of it

[brazen drift]

The angel number

1063

[unborn pilot]

Ah yeah that too

[brazen drift]

It’s golds melting point

We’ve been here

#1176727687063154748 message

[unborn pilot]

My point was: I tried a chronogram and it worked for a date we’ve had come up on the statue.

It could be used elsewhere too maybe

[brazen drift]

Chronograph of what

Chronogram*

[unborn pilot]

Namatama image as a marble statue

Any Latin phrase can be a chronogram

[brazen drift]

I see

Have we looked at any other Latin?

Is there any in gladiator namatama?

[unborn pilot]

Not that I know of

[brazen drift]

Doesn’t seem to be anything

[unborn pilot]

Ego Sum Qui Sum = 2001
Veni Vidi Ludere = 1063
Oriri Ex Cinere = 113
NONDESISTASNONEXIERIS = 513

I got the idea from Rob’s post.

[brazen drift]

1063 is the only real relevant one

Unless we can find a 2001

[unborn pilot]

For Ego Sum he had random letters capitalized in mAdnEsS.

And thats a tip off how a chronogram works

[brazen drift]

Hm

[silver ruin]

what are we trying to figure aout again?

[unborn pilot]

I’m digging through every image and clue ever to find the golden ones or whatever points to the final password

[silver ruin]

nice

[brazen drift]

We’ve used Galileo before (this is all events in 2001)

I think that this is all connected to an older clue, but we should look at genesis and eros and sodium

@unborn pilot

Genesis doesn’t seem like much

Near shoemaker doesn’t seem like much

I think other events are a dead end

[hard current]

1063 was only significant because we had to tie it to the PISAN calendar to show it actually was 1064

[brazen drift]

Anything you can connect 2001 to?

[hard current]

not that I recall in any of the padlets

[timid solstice]

Yes space odyssey

[brazen drift]

Breh

[timid solstice]

odyssey in:easter-eggs

[brazen drift]

Wait that’s a thing

That we found before

Not space odyssey, but homers

#easter-eggs message

Huh

Interesting

Maybe it does have significance

I’ll look into later, after I get off my flight

Boarding in a bit

[balmy fog]

Hey Hunters, I’m back! What have I missed??

[quaint wing]

Nothing. We've gotten nowhere. lol

Couple new threads for you to check out though ❤️

[brazen drift]

Really has been dry lately

[unborn pilot]

Only thing I got today is Veni Vidi Ludere = 1063

[balmy fog]

Like

Literally no eyes ?

[quaint wing]

Robs not helping us with the final password.

[balmy fog]

Is he not helping us because the pw is simply too obvious

[unborn pilot]

Word is we get no more eyes cause we can solve it

[quaint wing]

Someone mentioned he wasn't helping us at all for this one. I'll see if I can find the message

It was fish - #easter-eggs message But I also am not 100% sure if it was meant as a joke or not.

[balmy fog]

Well, he’s also prob very busy

[unborn pilot]

I did final a random Batman connection in the very first volume which was brought up before. But it’s likely nothing but odd luck

https://dc.fandom.com/wiki/Batman_Vol_1_99

[balmy fog]

Mhmm ok

[unborn pilot]

Name of story is “the golden eggs”

[balmy fog]

What about the ? Images

Nothing found in them?

[quaint wing]

Still nothing fun coming out of those yet.

[unborn pilot]

Nah

[balmy fog]

What about the 3F

Or three repeating themselves

[hard current]

no connections

#1176963788797386912

we’ve started looking for what Rob referred to as golden clues

[quaint wing]

We've thrown a lot of new password attempts in #1175206999802249307

[hard current]

#1176727687063154748
#1177282752660385843
#1176928125452558336

but we haven’t been able to actually connect… anything

[balmy fog]

ABC links is also cataclysm

We could theorize

Black bg ? Gold could represent the cataclysm, the death

While white bg ? Could represent the birth

[quaint wing]

Couldn't stop thinking about this the whole time you were gone eh?

[balmy fog]

Since DEF is about egg shells and yolk

[coarse dagger]

Took me a bit to figure out what what happening here. It's the sum of any roman numeral characters present in the string.

Ego Sum Qui Sum -> MIM -> 1000 + 1 + 1000 -> 2001
Veni Vidi Ludere -> VIVIDILD -> 5 + 1 + 5+ 1 + 500 + 1 + 50 + 500 -> 1063
Oriri ExCinere -> IIXCI -> 1 + 1 + 10 + 100+ 1 -> 113
NONDESISTASNONEXIERIS -> DIXII -> 500 + 1 + 10 + 1 + 1 -> 513

And here's a calculator for it:
https://kgjenkins.github.io/chronogram/

This seems quite significant due to the presence of 1063

[balmy fog]

Explain

Or sum up for me

[unborn pilot]

He summed it up right there haha.

I found that chronograms are dates hidden in Roman on statues

I looked on namatama and found that it worked

[balmy fog]

Oh

So the current link we have is

[unborn pilot]

Then I connected Rob gave clues to chronograms as well in posts by capitalizing random letters while also speaking Latin

[coarse dagger]

I don't think I can be any more explicit than that 😅

[rigid magnet]

Has anyone figured this out yet

[hard current]

nope

[unborn pilot]

Also we got that on that image with find psw xxxx-xx-xx there is also the Mayan calendar date 13.0.10.3.3 for (January 1 2023)

I think that just reinforces us needing a date in a certain format. Or maybe points to “new years day” in general

[hard current]

I still wonder about his use of “little” 3 times, it doesn’t seem to tie into any of it

did he give cryptic clues in the past in that manner?

[unborn pilot]

Maybe to point to that little psw clue?

Then again they’re all little clues pretty much

[wet lodge]

Hey all! Hope yall are doing well. Just wanted to say yall are FANTASTIC! ♥️

[unborn pilot]

An observation… so far we’ve had puzzles with 0 (o), 6 (vi G), and 3 (iii 3).

Only 1 is missing and he emphasized ONE in a recent post

Could also be why we see 1063

[rigid magnet]

Wasnt there something today about 1063?

[unborn pilot]

Yeah just a weird connection I saw overall

It would be very easy to turn any date with a 1 into an i in the end

[rigid magnet]

Wdym

like roman numerals?

[unborn pilot]

If the lead is we need a password in xxxx-xx-xx then something like 1064-01-01 could be i064-0i-0i

That’s an example of

[rigid magnet]

OHHH

I see I see

[unborn pilot]

But i like what you’re thinking. I also noticed that the date in the ? Metadata fits in Roman numerals perfectly.

2015-11-06
MMXV-XI-VI

[rigid magnet]

Interesting

MLXIII

[upbeat ridge]

Any of you tried throwing in all the stuff mentioned in the password recently? Doesn’t hurt to just check em off

[spice kraken]

So did y’all crack the code yet ?

[hard current]

that's... also very interesting, potential connection there maybe

[quaint wing]

If you think you have a password, or any inkling of one, just toss that bitch in #1175206999802249307 Any password tried is better than not trying them, especially after making connections!

[upbeat ridge]

I can’t participate in threads yet :/

[hard current]

Idk part of me thinks it's... just gonna be plainly obvious to us what the password was as soon as we get it

[quaint wing]

Just like viold and evivi was. lol

[hard current]

I'm gonna put all the passwords and relevant tiers in a doc and see what my brain connects

[unborn pilot]

I agree. That’s why we need a date that makes sense before i go start trying random dates

[hard current]

I joined the hunt right AFTER those I so wish I wouldve joined sooner lmao

btw @upbeat ridge is my twin brother, he didn't play the beta but plans on playing the game on release, he's trying to catch up but if he asks any silly questions just ping me

[rigid magnet]

But would rob do that 3 times in a row?

[upbeat ridge]

It does seem like it should be a date, maybe it’s gonna end up being whatever date it releases lmao

:)

[hard current]

I think in a sadistic way it makes him giddy seeing us struggle so bad with something right in front of us LMAO (this is not an attack on Robs character, I'm sure he loves watching us work together to solve it)

but, we haven't found A THING in the clue images

[unborn pilot]

We’d never guess that unless there’s some equation to follow

[quaint wing]

I watched the madness unfold for that the whole time. We had the passwords, but no one made the connection to make G=VI, just tried with 6

[hard current]

and iirc he said that the clues in the images would mostly be quickly apparent

[upbeat ridge]

What if the password is just “??”

[hard current]

it's not

[unborn pilot]

You win

[quaint wing]

We tried that

[hard current]

check #1175206999802249307

we tried

[upbeat ridge]

Pain

[unborn pilot]

You lose

[hard current]

@upbeat ridge put that big engineering brain to use

[unborn pilot]

Dude my bro who helped solve this is a senior software engineer and now his highest achievement is 6=vi

[hard current]

put this on a resume lmao

[upbeat ridge]

I think I’d be better at interpreting then finding, if nobody has found anything in those 2 images with fancy photoshop software I def won’t be able to

[unborn pilot]

That’s what he said 😂

[quaint wing]

I'm similar. I don't have the brain to find things, but I can connect the dots, sometimes.

Except we keep making our own dots and it turns into a solar system for the word "egg"

[rigid magnet]

I mean true

[hard current]

want my honest opinion? there's nothing to gain from the two images besides it hinting at a combination or actual question to ask

[rigid magnet]

Wait the first two passwords were what again?

[hard current]

1064 and lxxix

[quaint wing]

Which first two passwords.

[hard current]

https://padlet.com/devefs/potential-golden-clues-zujcce8pfgge6ajm

[unborn pilot]

Or you mean last two?

[rigid magnet]

I see

[upbeat ridge]

Yeah this is the problem, we have no idea if any of our paths are even the potential one yet

[hard current]

check top right, I'm adding passwords into it now

[rigid magnet]

Last two

[hard current]

you guys should have access to add to it as well

[quaint wing]

The last two were GOLD, EGG

But G was set to VI.

[unborn pilot]

Viold and evivi

[upbeat ridge]

@hard current do I need to make a padley account

[unborn pilot]

Someone else pointed out today that 666

And 1063 is angelic number i guess

[hard current]

yeah viold and evivi 666

[hard current]

if you wish to edit yes

I'm not sure what Kyne has their padlet set to but I don't think I can edit it for the actual tier

so I made this one to look for "golden clues"

[quaint wing]

It doesn't let you view it at all. It's weird.

[hard current]

yeah I made it so you have to have an account, though I can change that if you guys wish

[quaint wing]

Maybe view only without logging in? I know Lulz has been adding actual information to the Kyne one.

https://padlet.com/Kyne/the-promise-t3-dyra282bx402xxzy

[hard current]

yeah I'm logged in but can't add to the tier 3 padlet

might be only those kyne trusts

[unborn pilot]

Maybe make it public. It was before. Now I can’t open it either

[quaint wing]

Yeah. I know Lulz adds things when we have actual updates, not just random guesses.

[unborn pilot]

There’s a couple “dead ends”

That don’t lead to any of previous answers so far

[hard current]

alright try now

[unborn pilot]

Yeah works.

https://padlet.com/devefs/potential-golden-clues-zujcce8pfgge6ajm

[hard current]

can you edit and make changes?

[quaint wing]

We can see it now. Thank you ❤️

[unborn pilot]

I’d have to be on my computer but I should be good either way when logged in

[upbeat ridge]

Same

[unborn pilot]

I like that we solved one already

[hard current]

I think it mayyy have already been solved but we didn't see it in the padlet or anything

either way, it makes a lot of sense because I also know a Dandelion seed was hidden in of the tier 1f images

so leo + dande and a dandelion seed makes perfect sense that this likely isn't a golden clue

[unborn pilot]

Ah. I thought a few days ago Lion was just yellow

[hard current]

@upbeat ridge you not logged in on pc rn? you still at girls house?

[unborn pilot]

So that was a new connection he made and makes sooo much more sense

[rigid magnet]

Ok I gotta go for now, but I'll be back later and try to help o7

Goodluck my friends

[hard current]

silly question but

[upbeat ridge]

No

[hard current]

how did the electrong configuration of mendelevium have anything to do with gold?

[upbeat ridge]

LMAO WHAT TF IS MENDELEVIUM

[hard current]

Tier 1C password was the electron configuration for mendelevium

[upbeat ridge]

What exactly is mendelevium

[hard current]

only made by humans in a matter thingy forgot what its called

[quaint wing]

T1C = 5f137s2 : 137(.5) is the Golden angle - That's how it had to do with gold.

[hard current]

did rob ever confirm that? I'm just curious

if not it's likely the connection I'm just guessing hehe

[quaint wing]

I'm going off the pins. That was how the connection to gold was made

[hard current]

4f145d106s1 is golds electron config

that's strange.. what about the 2 in there?

[quaint wing]

Yes, but the golden angle is what connected the other one.

Hold up. I'm an idiot who can't words.

137.5 is the golden angle. That's how gold got connected to Mendelevium.

[hard current]

ah ok

that, could work, but doesn't explain away the 5 and 2...

oh well it's likely got naught to do with this tier

I'm just looking at all the passwords and trying to form connections

[quaint wing]

No idea. Sadly, I wasn't here for all of that.

I got here in the middle of the gold egg panic.

[upbeat ridge]

I’ve only been here for this tier

[quaint wing]

On the bright side, you've only been here for this tier. Something might pop out to you that won't pop out to someone else! That's a good thing to have in these cases where everyone starts letting their mind wander to random things that MIGHT connect.

[unborn pilot]

Yeah that one is not gold but gold(en)

[balmy fog]

I'm glad to see new hunters y'all!

[hard current]

some other connections with gold and egg I've thought about recently:

golden comet - type of chicken
chrysos - part of chrysalis, means gold in greek, could think of an egg as a chrysalis maybe?
midas - everything I touch turns to gold
golden goose - lays golden eggs, we touched on this before and found nothing conclusive
philosophers egg - https://history.rcplondon.ac.uk/blog/decoding-philosophers-egg#:~:text=The elusive philosophers' egg is,or Hermes egg' in MS196. got to talking about alchemy and I thought of a philosophers egg, likely leads nowhere but intersting still

philosophers egg aka hermes egg?

orange spotted tiger clearwing has a "golden" chrysalis

[unborn pilot]

All good ideas. I think whatever it is will have several (at least 8) clues pointing to it as a themes

[balmy fog]

Let's utilize a quick reset, as I think we need it

and maybe just

a summary of what we have

What do y'all say

[quaint wing]

That's waht the last couple days have been.

[hard current]

What we Have Final Tier

• 2 images
  tfee_ques.jpg - gold and black, gold question mark, seems thicker than the tion question mark, black is marked as 666 in RGB
  tfee_tion.jpg - eggshell theme, question mark

nothing of note was found in either of these images when editing/analyzing using any method

latin and roman numeral usage throughout previous tiers

previous tiers (ABC) were tied to gold
previous tiers (DEF) were tied to egg/oval shape

[quaint wing]

People going through old clues to summarize what's been found before, what's been solved, and trying to see how everything connects nicely.

[balmy fog]

Okay so, in a concrete way, what do we have

Let's redo-it

We have gold, egg-shell, egg yolk

we have cataclysms

[unborn pilot]

I’ve been doing that for a few days and slowly getting through all the old images one by one.

There’s a lot of interesting stuff that wasn’t used that are either clues for this or later levels.

Trying to figure out which is which

We can work forwards to solve “gold, egg, and ?” or backwards and assume “find psw: xxxx-xx-xx” is one of our golden clues to this level

Or look for what connects the dots

[hard current]

maybe there's.. a property of each we're missing... i.e. we talked about the shape of an egg, what the shell is made of, and the yolk, but not the egg whites

[balmy fog]

Gold might be too obvious here

Thats my thing

[unborn pilot]

Backwards we got a lot clues about dates, years, time and this seems like a connection feels “obvious” to a degree which could be right sign

[balmy fog]

I feel like this could be bigger

Like the death of something and the ''born'' of something

[unborn pilot]

😂 it’s so hard to tell what obvious is good and bad. You’re right

Yeah so to me date & egg connect to birth

[hard current]

I've seen themes of respawning/ressurection/reborn in some of the previous tiers

[balmy fog]

The cataclysms link could be related to the end, the death, and the egg the meaning of the creation a of a new life

[unborn pilot]

And the ? Of the matchstick man means person

[hard current]

the phoenix was brought up, jesus ressurection, hell eggs themselves

[quaint wing]

Just remember. If you start making connections and guesses, try the passwords you have in mind. Imagine having the thought, not trying it, and it ended up working ❤️

[balmy fog]

Nobody really talks about this

Think about this

If you make a book

you'll make chapters

Would you name a chapter something that is totally irrelevant to the text in it?

''The Promise''

That's the name of the chapter we're in

[unborn pilot]

Of life?

[hard current]

the only problem is that the phoenix and jesus ressurection were brought up by hunters, and never connected to anything else

[upbeat ridge]

Hunters?

[balmy fog]

Us

[upbeat ridge]

Gotcha

[balmy fog]

Why create a book, with chapters and name it something that is irrelevant

Doesn't make any sense

[upbeat ridge]

That’s a good thought, but do the other tier names connect to what their solutions were?

[balmy fog]

The promise is not only a clue, in my opinion, it's probably the foundation of what we're trying to solve

[hard current]

no no he means level name

this levels name is "The Promise"

[unborn pilot]

I agree on the promise not being “just a clue”

[hard current]

the last one was "The commence" I think

@upbeat ridge welcome to yellow, you can join threads now bozo you have to say something in them for it stay showed up in the channel categories

[balmy fog]

We've been looking for a question

What if

The question is ''What is The promise''

[upbeat ridge]

YOOOO

[balmy fog]

and the answer to that question is the actual password

[hard current]

not a bad way to think about it

[balmy fog]

The thing about ''Promise'' is, it's a wide subject

Catholics, romans, latin, every part of centuries had promises

Every politics comes with promises

[rigid magnet]

Maybe search for a connection between the three

[hard current]

I had a thought cross my mind and part of me wonders if this is lore related down the line but, Rob said the lore went deep, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a time when someone tried to hijack the show and keep respawns from happening.. i thought maybe the promise of the finals was "You Won't Die" or something like that, but thats a big stretch and connects a lot of empty dots lol

[rigid magnet]

Like they all agree somewhere type thing

[balmy fog]

I don't think ''The Promise'' will be related to the actual game

I think it's deeper

[hard current]

fair

[balmy fog]

Deep but obvious

as Rob said

a walk in the park is something obvious

[unborn pilot]

The solution will be simple but one of these things will connect the dots

[balmy fog]

but we've been looking at obvious like a virus

and including every late subject we've had like gold, eggs, shells

cataclysms

[hard current]

a promise is also known as a covenant, though idk if that'd play into this

[balmy fog]

Promise is wide, where does it comes from

[hard current]

From Middle English promis, promisse, borrowed from Old French promesse, from Medieval Latin prōmissa, Latin prōmissum (“a promise”), feminine and neuter of promissus, past participle of prōmittō (“I send or put forth, let go forward, say beforehand, promise”), from pro (“forth”) + mittere (“to send”); see mission.

[rigid magnet]

Ark of the covenant? wooden chest covered in gold?

[hard current]

I just made that connection too

[rigid magnet]

What about whats inside the ark?

Theres a golden pot of manna as well as other things

(said to be)

[pure loom]

There's quite an interesting piece of spectrograph in the audio from the Open Beta trailer - this is where NamaTama blows up the C4 (1.26 min mark)

[unborn pilot]

Whaaaaat

[hard current]

I wish I could make anything out of it, I don't know what a normal audio sound would look like

well cade knows 😉

[unborn pilot]

Looks like a graph right away

AR ON 1/4 9? -4 9

[hard current]

wait that N is

isn't that latin?

ᴎ

[upbeat ridge]

DOWN THE RAVBIT HOLE BOYS

From Latin Aaron, from Ancient Greek Ἀαρών (Aarṓn), from Hebrew אַהֲרֹן‎ (ʾAhărōn), of unknown meaning, possibly meaning “bearer of martyrs”, or perhaps also, or instead, related to the Ancient Egyptian ꜥḥꜣ rw (“warrior lion”), though it has been suggested to also mean “elevated”, “exalted” or “high mountain”.

[upbeat ridge]

I’m assuming this entire video has already been gone through frame by frame yeah?

[hard current]

I think someone searched for hidden images

there's this as well

[upbeat ridge]

What of there is a singular frame in the video with ? On it

[pure loom]

Yeah, I created a breakdown on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNRHq4IF7VQ

(if anyone minds me posting this in here let me know, and I will remove)

[hard current]

shiiitt first time I've seen this gonna give it a watch

[quaint wing]

You are the egg hunter, what do you mean.

[pure loom]

I looked that those numbers and letters on the C4 and because I couldn't work anything out, I left it out of the video, but I probably should have posted it in here

[quaint wing]

Your knowledge is worth more in here than most of our ramblings, lmao. We appreciate you and your hard work

[pure loom]

this is the first time I've looked at the audio spectrum

[unborn pilot]

nah man, you should post more. i didn't even know you had 3 more easter egg videos until i looked through your channel

[hard current]

no worries, but that is definitely a latin character right?

[unborn pilot]

all great recaps

[upbeat ridge]

I think it’s just an N dawg

[pure loom]

Or Cyrillic?

[hard current]

no it's a latin character no matter how you rotate the image

@pure loom I'm not seeing anything in the cyrillic alphabet that looks like that

[pure loom]

oh, lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faux_Cyrillic

[rigid magnet]

Oh sweet I cant wait to take a look at this

[pure loom]

my bad

[hard current]

oh no I see what you're saying now

but in the like official cyrillic stuff I'm not seeing it

[rigid magnet]

Talking about the N?

[hard current]

yes

[rigid magnet]

Could be russian

they have a backwards N in there alphabet

[hard current]

The backwards N in Russian is a letter called "И" (pronounced as "ee"). It is the ninth letter of the Russian alphabet and represents the vowel sound [i]. The lowercase form of this letter looks like a backwards "N", while the uppercase form looks like a regular "N

yep could be that then as well

[rigid magnet]

Ya

Alright on that note I have to leave again 😭 going out for dinner, I'll be back later o7

Goodluck

[wet lodge]

If yall need russian help I can provide that assistance. Im fluent in it

[balmy fog]

Might have something boys

Let me share this with you

[hard current]

it's tough to say right now, it looks like all we can clearly see from that c4 is that one letter

[wet lodge]

That is the letter И let me see if i can read any others and make a word

[hard current]

if you want an edited image let me know, I think this was the best I could do in terms of grabbing a more clear image with as many visible letters as possible

half of the c4 looks english for sure

[balmy fog]

The shape of the eggshell is structurally so close to perfect that it can resist much more pressure than one would ever suspect it could.

...that the ordinary egg is really a completely miraculous object—has to do with much more than science tricks. There is a mystery hiding in the egg—a mystery as profound as that of life itself.

It was the French writer Louis Charbonneau-Lassay who best expressed just what this mystery is, in his celebrated book “The Bestiary of Christ.” "The egg," he wrote there, "contains a promise."

We need to start far back in time, at the very beginnings of human history. "To our pre-Christian ancestors," Francis X. Weiser writes in his “Handbook of Christian Feasts and Customs,” "it was a most startling event to see a new and live creature emerge from a seemingly dead object."

Decorating eggs at springtime didn't begin with Christianity. The ancient Persians, for example, exchanged colored eggs to celebrate the spring equinox hundreds of years before Christ. But Easter eggs symbolized something new: a mystery even more profound and miraculous than the seasonal rebirth of nature after the long cold winter.

[upbeat ridge]

Do an analysis on it? On forensically?

[upbeat ridge]

YO?!

[hard current]

I doubt we'd see much since it's just a screen grab from a video

[upbeat ridge]

When was the bestiary of christ written?

[balmy fog]

''So startling was it that the mythmakers of the ancient world featured eggs in many stories they told about the origins of their gods and heroes, and of the entire universe. In Chinese folk mythology the trickster-hero Monkey was born from a stone egg impregnated by a bolt of lightning.

According to a Hindu myth, the sun sprang from an egg at the beginning of time. Even the biblical Eden has been imagined by artists and visionaries as existing within a giant egg, which was shattered in the fall. All these peoples agreed in their different ways that there is something irreducibly mysterious about the egg''

It was only with Christianity that that secret promise finally emerged into the light for all to see. And it brought about the creation of a new object: the Easter egg.

[pure loom]

Ok, I didn't find anything else in the audio spectos of any of the trailers etc - including the ARC Raiders ones. Looks like only that NamaTama C4 one had anything

[upbeat ridge]

Lmao holy shit this is too good

[balmy fog]

https://www.beliefnet.com/inspiration/angels/2010/04/the-eggs-promise-ptolemy-tompkins.aspx

Here's a quick story

Actually is a good read, really good read even tough it might not be EE related I recommend it

"Hope," wrote Saint Augustine, "in my opinion can be compared to the egg. For hope has not reached its goal; likewise the egg is something, but it is not yet the chicken."

...the eggs we enjoy at Easter all harken back to that first Easter morning when hope was born anew, and the world was reborn along with it. This hope is the secret promise of the egg that Charbonneau-Lassay wrote of, and the real reason why, as my father so memorably showed me, there really isn't such a thing as an ordinary egg.

It's a promise that is echoed in a Latin inscription on a marble egg sculpted by a 16th-century French artist. Post tenebras spero lucem: "After the darkness, I hope for the light." It's also the promise expressed in the traditional exchange that accompanies the presentation of decorated Ukrainian eggs on Easter morning—words that echo those spoken by the angel at Christ's tomb.

"He is risen."

"He is risen indeed."

Hope

is the promise

If we get it from there

[wet lodge]

I believe its english. I dont have ability to send photos but if you flip it so 4 looks correct its 100 percent english

[balmy fog]

Eggs symbolize the promise of new life

[elder osprey]

It kinda looks like the backwards "N" is just part of a mirrored texture. There's also a backwards "4". Lots of 3d models in games have their textures mirrored from one half to the other. Unless I'm missing something

[wet lodge]

Though one of the letters looks like Я russian "ya"

[hard current]

ah it is

the 4 is mirrored as well

thank you guys, we'll mark it as a dead end hehe

[wet lodge]

Sorry mirrored and reversed R looks like that. As i was

[hard current]

wait, could we take the two sides and form one whole word then across the top?

ah it's probably not important

@balmy fog really good connections king

[wet lodge]

Maybe. It doesnt seem like its spelling plastic explosive or something that i can tell has connection to it. Im not home but once I am i can overlay them and see if there is some text

[balmy fog]

Also this

[wet lodge]

Maybe numbers

[elder osprey]

[balmy fog]

Gold

Gold is illuminating, sacred, durable; it is precious. It is almost universally associated with the SUN, or the highest stage in spiritual development. The first is black - sin and penitence; then white - remission and innocence; then red - sublimation and passion. It is heralded as embodying the powers of the EARTH, and it is light. It is the heart of the earth, so it is symbolic of superiority.

Has many symbols of fertility, the Tree of Life supposedly had gold roots, plus wealth and abundance. Its immunity from rust brings it connotations of immortality and incorruptibility. It is an amulet for wounded people. Along with being the heart of the earth, gold represents heart, love and blood. In Melville's Moby Dick, sun, blood and gold are together. Combinations: a golden apple is immortality, ball is wisdom, sun, chain is honor, dignity, respect and wealth.

[balmy fog]

So according to this path, the yolk is the gold, as they say ''the heart of the earth'' wich could be translated to the heart of the egg, egg being referred as ''the creation of''.

[upbeat ridge]

Christianity promises salvation too

[hard current]

that's what he connected it to silly boy

[upbeat ridge]

I didn’t read everything :)

[balmy fog]

Metaphorically speaking, that's what the Promise could be about

[wet lodge]

Legit top tier

[balmy fog]

It's a wide subject as it connects everything

Roman, latin, death, cataclysms

Gold also came from space (in case y'all didn't know) gold wasn't on earth until the big bang wich is scientifically the creation of the man

[balmy fog]

Came from an explosion of a Star *

Wich again links the cataclysm

[upbeat ridge]

@hard current for shits n giggles trying password salvation but make the n the cyrillic one

Where does the cataclysm stuff stem from?

[rigid magnet]

Dude you're absolutely brilliant 👏

[balmy fog]

Just like 1064 was the asteroid (Cataclysm), 79 was the eruption (Cataclysm) and Mendelevium was created by bombarding atoms together

Cataclysm links to ABC passwords

[upbeat ridge]

Gotcha

[balmy fog]

@pure loom was the first to talk about this

[pure loom]

Sounds like the current theory (which has changed in the last 10 years) is that gold forms in neutron star mergers https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2026110118#:~:text=Although supernova explosions%2C such as,most of these cataclysmic events.

[balmy fog]

Yep

Basically if a star is densed in Iron or something like that, and then pressure itself crushes the star

The pressure, once released, basically changed the Metal on that star that became Gold

Fun fact, the equivalent of gold on earth is approx = 2 olympic pool

Here's a four minute video, that explains simply, how it happened https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jf_4z4AKwJg&ab_channel=TED-Ed

[upbeat ridge]

Don’t forget that the two images captions put together equal “question” I think that somehow has to play into all this too

[pure loom]

Previously they thought supernovas alone were responsible for gold, but now it sounds like they don't think that can be right because we would have more gold in the universe if that was the case: “Whatever produced this r-process element is very rare,” Ji says. In particular, it must be much rarer than an ordinary supernova."

[balmy fog]

Yeah I wonder man how it was actually cooked

It must be something so rare

the perfect combination of X & Y I guess

Crazy how theories changed, this video was 8 years ago

[hard current]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmoid_function ??

[upbeat ridge]

That one looks exponential

[balmy fog]

X and Y are reversed

so it should be like this

[upbeat ridge]

Oh so then logarithmic?

Or sigmoid

[hard current]

yeah looks logarithmic then

Oh wow that search actually works for stuff

[balmy fog]

Odd link but, who knows, at this point. I've talked about The Promise being the the creation of, or the beginning of. Hypothetically speaking, the history of various visual media began with black and white. Our both pictures are B&W

[unborn pilot]

Like rival-1

And burrw

Interesting

[hard current]

it's an old link rob talked about a while ago

[balmy fog]

In computing terminology, black-and-white is sometimes used to refer to a binary image consisting solely of pure black pixels

[unborn pilot]

I’m just surprised these hidden urls are coming up in search 😂

[balmy fog]

I think our biggest unknown clue is the fact the size of the image is scuffed

1149x635 is a big wtf

a normal 16:9 would've been 1280x720

its the damn byzantine empire again lmfao

[rigid magnet]

I'm back what did I miss 😭

[wet lodge]

This is the first game ive ever seen that has such a curveball. Legit broke my brain that THE ART they post for their game has a treasure hunt in it

Those question marks do be fitting with the egg theory. The gold is the yolk and the white is the egg white

Could be they have to overlay with each other to create something..

[upbeat ridge]

I tried

I overlaid them at 50% transparency and ran them through the gauntlet on forensically and stegonline and saw nothing new

[hard current]

watching invincible rn and trying to make brain work

[wet lodge]

The only thing i was able to get out from them were the 9x9 squares though we got stuck there though there were duplicates within.

That gave me an idea, maybe the duplicates are what matter. Ill try to save them to a new folder instead of deleting them

[upbeat ridge]

[hard current]

b0kb had some really good connections but…

that still doesn’t connect with the fact we have two images titled ques and tion

heyyyyy @upbeat ridge just thought of this, what if there are words and phrases specific from each tier set that could form a question

so there’s a way to make half of a question in tiers DEF and the other half in tiers ABC

hence why we have a question mark image posted after the passwords for T2ABC and T2DEF

[brazen drift]

#easter-eggs message

Sorry that’s for myself

I was on a plane for 6 hours and am trying to catch up

[rigid magnet]

Can previous tiers correlate to the current hunt?

[hard current]

for tier 2ABC the answer was viold and all answers in 1A-C were related to gold

and same but for egg

[rigid magnet]

So you think all answers here are related as well?

To yolk maybe?

[brazen drift]

We used that at some point right

[hard current]

yeah vit3llus

tier 1F

[rigid magnet]

I see

[brazen drift]

Stick figure again

We saw that somewhere else

[upbeat ridge]

possibly but would tier 3 password need to correlate ALL before it? or just the last 2?

[hard current]

my line of thinking is there’s a question/answer related to gold and the tiers

and there’s a question/answer that relates to egg and those tiers

and can be combined somehow

[upbeat ridge]

what were the questions?

egg + gold = what

isn't there an image with a gold egg in it somewhere

[hard current]

yeah we’ve already analyzed it to hell

[rigid magnet]

Did you get anything from it?

[hard current]

no, nothing new as far as I could tell

I think it was a tier 1B image

[rigid magnet]

Gotcha

Do you have the link to it?

#official-art message

[rigid magnet]

Thanks o7

[upbeat ridge]

so that's clearly a QR code and sum on the left

anyone ever see this before?

[unborn pilot]

Yeah goes to rival-1

Sadly dead end after that

[upbeat ridge]

pain

thanks

[hard current]

might be a future diamond clue

@upbeat ridge what image is that?

[upbeat ridge]

#official-art message

[hard current]

why’d you pick this image to look over

[upbeat ridge]

it just spoke to me

figured not every single image in that channel has been analyzed

[rigid magnet]

Isn't the symbol to the left the hope diamond?

[hard current]

?

[rigid magnet]

Oh nevermind

1 sec

[hard current]

looks like the sun and half an egg

@upbeat ridge should check padlet for that tier and see what came from that image

[brazen drift]

I leave for a few hours and I am so lost now

[upbeat ridge]

what is rival-1

idk what tier that's for

[hard current]

reachthefinals.com/rival-1

[rigid magnet]

We're talking about the picture he just posted right?

[hard current]

yee

[rigid magnet]

I watched a rockhound vid where he already talks about that

[brazen drift]

Might be interesting to go through with this

[rigid magnet]

Says it's a diamond of some sort I think

I'll see if I can find it

[brazen drift]

You late to the party on that one

[upbeat ridge]

yeah I realized hehe

[brazen drift]

I also like this

[upbeat ridge]

was this ever connected to a specific tier?

[hard current]

unsolved

[brazen drift]

Hmm

[rigid magnet]

that's some japanese guitar store

sorry not japanese

[hard current]

ah yeah I see

[hard current]

what’s this

[brazen drift]

I assume we’ve run this through the gauntlet

[hard current]

likely, never anything further came of it per R cade

[wet lodge]

What did you manipulate to get that ? If its photoshop could you send me your save file? Id love to explore what you did

[hard current]

you spelled it wrong bozo

[brazen drift]

He used https://29a.ch/photo-forensics/#pca im pretty sure

[hard current]

kaksi kitaraa

[upbeat ridge]

I used https://29a.ch/photo-forensics/#luminance-gradient

[wet lodge]

Thanks

[upbeat ridge]

it's finnish

[rigid magnet]

.

My bad, just wanted to keep that for later when I get on my pc 😅

[brazen drift]

All g

[hard current]

yeah that got them thinking about something related to the tier iirc

[brazen drift]

It works well on mobile tho

[hard current]

that’s likely not related to this final tier

[brazen drift]

There’s so much here man

[rigid magnet]

I'll check it out but I'm also trying to multi task rn 😅

[brazen drift]

We thought about this sometime earlier

[brazen drift]

That in particular

[rigid magnet]

This mean it's completely new for the hunt?

[brazen drift]

No, that means the internet doesn’t have this image anywhere

[wet lodge]

Tineye isnt a good reverse engine tool. Google vision is better

[hard current]

@upbeat ridge

[upbeat ridge]

google vision cost moneys

[wet lodge]

Google lens is for free tho

Olli Häme's orchestra the bottom of the disk

[hard current]

@upbeat ridge i’m not at pc but should check if that image was altered

[upbeat ridge]

I found an exact copy of it at that link I just sent

[wet lodge]

https://www.discogs.com/artist/1833998-Olli-Hämeen-Orkesteri

For the bottom text

Good find @upbeat ridge

[upbeat ridge]

seems like a semi popular classic finnish song that's been sang for awhile

https://en.muztext.com/lyrics/topi-sorsakoski-agents-kaksi-kitaraa-dve-gitary-with-agents

those are the lyrics

don't see how they tie in anywhere

[brazen drift]

Nicely done! We’re gonna have to see if the audio or lyrics has anything

[upbeat ridge]

alright I must go bed

it's 3 am

GOOD NIGHT TEAM

[sharp flame]

You guys I'm really sorry to keep sleeping

and ik this is a great reason why we should keep documenting things better

[sharp flame]

Everything from this message on has already happened 😭

There was not in fact a dead end

[rigid magnet]

I dont think you need to apologize for sleeping 😭

[sharp flame]

It just makes me hurt (and happy) to see people rediscovering things

they look so happy...

[rigid magnet]

Thats what I thought, didnt rockhound make a video on it?

[rigid magnet]

Ah I see I see

[sharp flame]

Anyways I don't think they guys above noticed.. but here's the thing

[wet lodge]

Its honestly really fun to do random stuff and discover new things.

even tho they been discovered

[sharp flame]

maybe if I don't tell them how to "solve" rival-1 they will find a new connection we haven't found yet

[rigid magnet]

Wait so the record and the song too right?

[sharp flame]

Since I've always felt like there was more to that clue

[rigid magnet]

Have different eyes look at it and see if they can find something you guys missed maybe?

[wet lodge]

if there is some documentation we can reference to solution it still would be helpful as we know the solved paths and can take a look at the unsolved territory

[sharp flame]

Exactly!

[rigid magnet]

There is one I believe

[sharp flame]

We had the padlets aswell

but they might not be clear if that many people made the mistake

[rigid magnet]

This i think

[wet lodge]

The padlets are a work of art. Confusing as hell but they look so fun. Like a murder mystery

[rigid magnet]

Wasnt there a lot of clues that were never put together by the time the answer was figured out?

[sharp flame]

There always is

[rigid magnet]

Fs

[sharp flame]

But I think you'd do better assuming that they lead to the answer than in another direction

[rigid magnet]

You mean like no matter it'll all connect somehow

[sharp flame]

because unless they're a Diamond Clue (which by the way was clued by Rob in this chat and not in any images) then all the image clues are for the current tier

[rigid magnet]

And we only have one diamond tier clue right?

[sharp flame]

yep, burrw

we need to analyse that gif at some point

[wet lodge]

I have the gif all seperated up and in layers if you want it

[rigid magnet]

Can I have access to it? I'll see if I can actually contribute

Or more like the link to it lol

[sharp flame]

And btw here idk if you noticed but this disc has at least 1 difference with the rival-1

[wet lodge]

If you dont have photoshop I can export them all and send them as a zip

[rigid magnet]

Thanks

[sharp flame]

@rigid magnet and @wet lodge if you see a string of letters going diagonally across the gif, that's YMF292, ignore that

pls instead look for the repeating columns of pixels on the right and left or for other hidden strings haha 👆

[rigid magnet]

Got it

Ill give it a shot
