@pure loom updated

[pure loom]

And, why is Tier 3 "t3-f" - why not "t3-a"?

is he saying it relates to Tier 1F?

[hard current]

vit3llus?

wait

fuck

egg yolk is literally the combination of gold and egg

it's yellow/gold and inside of an egg

it's the only connection between gold and egg

[sterile obsidian]

oh shit

[hard current]

there are no properties.. no chemical anything, nothing mechanical, no relations between gold and eggs besides fairytales, the faberge eggs, and other minor things

it has to be about.. vitellus? egg yolk?

[quaint wing]

Try the passwords. You're making too much sense

[ripe cloud]

Vi = 6 t3llus = tell us 3= 3 vi's in the level 2 passwords? The 3 vi's tell us?

[hard current]

all the clues had to do with gold or egg, tier 1-f is the only one that sort of combines the two

vit3llus
vitiiillus

[balmy fog]

That's what I was trying to say ! 😉

[hasty anvil]

It could be the white ‘?’ Is looking from the outside, the gold ‘?’ With black background is looking from the inside

[elder osprey]

Tier 2ABC is t1-f-1

[pure loom]

If it is a continuation of goldegg, I think this makes sense. Either this or another unrelated connection we haven't established yet

[hard current]

gonna put this egg yolk shit on the back burner for now, but thanks for spawning that connection in my head lmao

[pure loom]

yeah, there's something about this that tells us something

[quaint wing]

Try a bunch of them, just in case. You can't have thoughts that make sense just to not try em out!

[sterile obsidian]

yeah

[elder osprey]

But that's interesting. Tier 2 is a summation of Tier 1. Yolk makes sense as a summation for tier 2

[hard current]

it feels too simple...

[elder osprey]

Or, what's the next step up logically from individual features of gold and egg, to goldegg, to ??

[hard current]

riches? wealth? greed?

[elder osprey]

Games shows?

[sterile obsidian]

treasure

artefacts

[hard current]

would be funny as shit if the reason Rob compressed the images is to show jpeg "artefacts" lmao

[sterile obsidian]

yeah

[pure loom]

I think it's more likely that it's so we quickly work out there's nothing in them

[hard current]

yeah I'm just talking out of my ass I agree with you 😉

[elder osprey]

there is no t2- in any of the url slugs. Which is weird.

[pure loom]

quite good just to talk the problem out sometimes

[hard current]

damnit no passwords workie

I added and tried a ton today tho so we can eliminate a bunch

[elder osprey]

if the url slugs mean anything, they seem to be pointing to vit3llus. But I'm not convinced they matter. I tried plugging in the more logical url slugs for the appropriate tiers, but I get the normal 404 page with the normal nama tama image (checked the urls to be sure)

[coarse dagger]

😭 I weep for your soul doing all the work you do w/o knowing that

[pure loom]

Not any more! haha

https://tenor.com/view/those-days-are-gone-long-gone-serious-john-goodman-captive-state-movie-gif-13246101

[hard current]

wild theor

theory

we have vitellus, the connection between gold and egg

what if the password is literally written as gold inside the egg

like goeggld

or egoldgg

[sterile obsidian]

lol

eggoldg

worth a shot ig

[hard current]

it's times like this when I wish Rob was here to eye things 😭

rare smashel bait 😦

[coarse dagger]

We figured out the gold and egg connections pretty quickly. Before even reaching T2. It was a possibility we didn't, so it makes sense to have them broken up IMO.

[jade citrus]

lmao

[hard current]

I wonder if he has even had time to read this chat and see what we're doing

[coarse dagger]

Would recommend reading up on the Discord search filters for anyone not intimately familiar with them. I use them all the time:

rob eye this rn if you've been watching the whole time

damn thought that would get him

alright well, I'm tired and haven't thought of any more passwords, have a good night fellas good luck

[sterile obsidian]

gn

[pure loom]

oh, that's a good point

[brazen drift]

you guys make any progress today?

it looks like you did

[jade citrus]

I don't think there's much progress to be made

we have everything we need already

[brazen drift]

really

how do u know

[jade citrus]

gold+egg

[brazen drift]

how do we know that for sure, was it confirmed at somepoint?

[jade citrus]

the passwords

[jade citrus]

here are the passwords if you have never seen them before

[hard current]

the images are so compressed that we doubt rob hid anything in them

hey btw a good thing to do might be to find all worlds/phrases that start with gold, as well as all words/phrases that start with egg, and see if anything combines

i am in bed but I can do tomorrow

[brazen drift]

I know this, but are we 100% that the t3 is directly connected to t2

[jade citrus]

i think it is, because the images we were given resemble egg and gold

an "eggshell" ? and a gold ?

[brazen drift]

I agree, I’m asking if we know

Like 100%

That we can solve from here

[unborn pilot]

If you mean was it confirmed by Rob then technically no. He only eyeballed those words for earlier tiers. So it could be either a direct or indirect connection

But I don’t think it would be something unrelated completely.

[brazen drift]

using that logic, as obvious as it seems, egg yolk makes a shit ton of sense

or some variation of it

[jade citrus]

that's what I was thinking, but we already used it for T1F

[brazen drift]

we did?

what was t1f password?

[jade citrus]

vit3llus

yolk in latin

[brazen drift]

mm

so probably not that

#easter-eggs message

thoughts on any of these

[jade citrus]

gold snitch would be a cool connection

[brazen drift]

or #easter-eggs message

[brazen drift]

doubtful though, unless we see other harry potter connection

[jade citrus]

did anyone ever think about analyzing this?

it’s the only nama pic with the most yolk

[brazen drift]

where did this come from

and i got it

[hard current]

and based on earlier thoughts in here it might be a good idea, not to mention robs .! signature is at the end of the sentence in the 404

[hard current]

just type in any nonsense after the reach the finals link

[brazen drift]

doesnt seem to be much

[hard current]

do luminance analysis

i dont see the writing

[balmy fog]

I do want to say I don't think we've ever analyzed this image

[hard current]

I searched, I didn’t see anyone do it

white dots on that yolk… maybe a reflection?

3 black dots on the right side of yamas break, can’t tell if it’s empty space behind it or if it’s a drawing of some kind

the 3 black dots seem drawn on compared to the og image the 3 dots are white, these other two white marks are likely just outlined around tama pieces

other weird stuff

[hard current]

just realized that first one is a spot of brighter light in the og image

is this a tear?

[brazen drift]

hmm

origin of patagonia?

404 Nama Image

[balmy fog]

No clue what so ever to where to go from here

It feels wide af

[hard current]

I know it's tough

I feel like there may be stuff of worth in this 404 image but I can't focus on it rn working on projects for college

[hasty anvil]

i'm still unsure if we need to go back through the tiers for golden clues

why is level 2 called 'the promise'

what's the meaning of the name

[hard current]

there are some theories

[hasty anvil]

do we have names for all 4 levels?

[hard current]

I don't believe so

[hasty anvil]

Level 1 was 'The Commence'. Level 2 is 'The Promise'

The commence is the start of TEH, what's the promise

[snow walrus]

frame17 folks
https://imgur.com/a/qbjRQqq

its like IF ... and a smaller shade of T or smth like that im not sure what do you think

[hard current]

my guess is just pixelation tbh :/ rob said in past tiers that any clues would generally be very noticeable with a little bit of work

but who knows, maybe it is something!

[snow walrus]

isnt that F too smooth

[hard current]

I'd keep looking to see if there's anything else hidden in the frame

and yeah it's pretty smooth but as with the jpeg artefacts, we can probably find a "pattern" anywhere we really want to see one

[elder osprey]

yeah. What's "the promise" and what's the question? Are we providing a question or being presented with one?

[pliant owl]

That's the question

[sharp flame]

rockhound 👋

[pure loom]

👋

I've been going back through some of the clues from Tier 1F for the video recap of it, and realised we still hadn't made the connection for Indianapolis, IN 46204, USA. I may have found the connection, or at least a striking coincidence.

Although @proud minnow did say it was a tertiary clue, which I think wouldn't make sense. Maybe wait for confirmation on this one. I'll add it to the 1F padlet nonetheless.

[pliant owl]

Is 1149x635 the best resolution you can get for the ques and tion images or am I missing something?

[icy bear]

Im kinda late here, what all have we uncovered?

[hard current]

check #egg-hunt-onboarding and read through documentation 🙂

Google doc explains it better:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CLzGtj2w2elVkqEdPV6NgqRiszNAxnwIANXHK-Pa1Bk/edit?usp=sharing

[upbeat ridge]

I think we need to steal the declaration of independence in order to move ahead

[pure loom]

Yes, and we're starting to think that they might deliberately be janky images so we work out that no clues are hidden in them.

(image size could be a clue though)

[upbeat ridge]

We thought that but we have no clue how it ties in

[pure loom]

https://tenor.com/view/no-nick-cage-nicolas-cage-the-unbearable-weight-of-massive-talent-no-way-gif-25136010

[sharp flame]

Rob said it was a small one, but that might be it!

[upbeat ridge]

Alright who lives near here and can go

[pure loom]

yeah, the problem is it should be a primary clue not a tertiary because it would point directly to yolk

[pure loom]

In year 1149. The Angstrom "Å" appears again.

[pure loom]

Colour hex #729615 is called "Luminescent Green" https://hexcolorpedia.com/color/729615/

[hard current]

hey also @pure loom you're pretty smart, if you see anything in #1178771386089623593 could you point it out if you get time?:)

[pliant owl]

Yea I just saw that when I googled it

I was trying something in GIMP but I'm not familiar enough with the program to know what to look for xD

[elder osprey]

I'm an hour forty away. The traffic sucks though

[pure loom]

Yeah, I think this would just be a clue to 1F, at best, probably not worth it

[pure loom]

Ha! Not sure about that haha - I'll take a look though

[elder osprey]

looks tasty though

Immanuel Kant 1784 (1149+635)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_Is_Enlightenment%3F

[coarse dagger]

I'm still convinced 1149 is a clue pointing towards "Status Quo".
#easter-eggs message

Although I wouldn't be surprised if it connects in multiple ways, such as the "Å"
#easter-eggs message

[coarse dagger]

Ooh, I like this

"Answering the Question: What Is Enlightenment?"

[snow walrus]

isnt the question "can you reach the finals"

[coarse dagger]

That's a theory

Kant answers the question in the first sentence of the essay: "Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-incurred immaturity (Unmündigkeit)."

[pure loom]

lol that reminded me of this (off topic!): https://youtu.be/0oNX_BHgi3c?si=BNO3fVxjZ9-tTF1R

[coarse dagger]

He exclaims that the motto of the Enlightenment is "Sapere aude"! – Dare to be wise!

aude
Au...

[snow walrus]

yea i noticed sapere aude but couldnt go through

[coarse dagger]

SR -> Sapere Sapiens Rob -> Wise Rob

BRUH

The original use of the phrase Sapere aude appears in the First Book of Letters (20 BC), by the Roman poet Horace; in the second letter, addressed to Lolius, in line 40, the passage is:

Dimidium facti, qui coepit, habet; sapere aude, incipe. ("He who has begun is half done; dare to know; begin!")

[hard current]

where is that from?

[coarse dagger]

Rob's telling us we're half done

[coarse dagger]

Edited w/ context (#easter-eggs message)

This is the end of T2 out of four known tiers for EE hunt

Rob's saying we're half way done but just getting started

[hard current]

I mean that would make sense, there's 4 levels correct?

so we're just about half done

but, as it says, just getting started

[pure loom]

Ok, I did find some odd pixels on the end of NamaTama's... ah, "paw"

I darkened them all to make them easier to see

[sharp flame]

saw those too

[hard current]

interesting

[pure loom]

It's in a location where the darker patch would be expected, but they are quite a change in tone compared to the surrounding pixels so could be deliberately changed

[hard current]

hold up, does it spell something in a zoomed out view?

[hard current]

in this one looks like a 5 or an S at the end

there was this too, in the center of the hand

[pure loom]

zoomed out a bit

[hard current]

wait is that the same thing

[coarse dagger]

I think you're looking at the same thing

[hard current]

yeah we are it looks like

[pure loom]

yeah same thing

[hard current]

the end looks like a 5 but the rest...?

@pure loom there are a few other spots on the image with pink pixels, though none seem to form anything significant like that one

[coarse dagger]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magical_motto#Hermetic_Order_of_the_Golden_Dawn

William Wynn Westcott (founder) – Sapere Aude (Latin: "Dare to Know")

[pure loom]

When counting from left to right the pixels can be divided into three groups 33 (0) 46 (0) 18

[pure loom]

yeah, it was the only location that stood out in many filters

[pliant owl]

There's similar spots on the mouth

[coarse dagger]

Since T1F I've been CONVINCED Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (and more largely the occult/alchemy) was related to the hunt somehow.

[pliant owl]

And the lower left part of the yolk

[coarse dagger]

And from Wallpaper_Brown_Eyed_Girl (#official-art message):

[elder osprey]

That's one symbol of many, and it's mirrored. What's so special about that symbol in particular?

[coarse dagger]

It's also present in Wallpaper_Brown_Eyed_Girl

[elder osprey]

Right, I mean it's a really specific part of the cross.

So what does it mean to the hermetic order of the golden dawn since it alone doesn't represent the order in general

[pure loom]

yeah, maybe it us just a shadow effect

[pliant owl]

Probably

[coarse dagger]

We often get clues to really specific things....

Hexagram: in the white portion of the cross is a six sided star with the sun at the centre and symbols of the planets and moon surrounding it.

In T1D we attributed the Symbol to Saturn, but it looks much more like the depiction of Jupiter on that Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn Rose Cross

[timid solstice]

We originally thought it was ceres

[snow walrus]

jupiter also has rings

[elder osprey]

Oh yeah. That makes sense.

The fact that the symbol in brown_eyed_girl is mirrored from that version of Jupiter makes it seem more likely to be Saturn

I'm getting side tracked, but do you guys think it would be possible that there are clues for this tier hidden in one of the park sections in one of the game maps, because of the "walk in the park" comment made by Rob?

[coarse dagger]

St. Albertus Magnus

Known as Albert the Great; scientist, philosopher, and theologian, born c. 1206; died at Cologne, 15 November 1280. He is called “the Great”, and “ Doctor Universalis” (Universal Doctor), in recognition of his extraordinary genius and extensive knowledge, for he was proficient in every branch of learning cultivated in his day, and surpassed all his contemporaries, except perhaps Roger Bacon (1214-94), in the knowledge of nature. Ulrich Engelbert, a contemporary, calls him the wonder and the miracle of his age: “Vir in omni scientia adeo divinus, ut nostri temporis stupor et miraculum congrue vocari possit” (De summo bono, tr. III, iv).

I still think TIME is related

It could be a DATE in Latin

[coarse dagger]

I mean... we were just talking about "Sapere Aude"

[proud minnow]

Well Latin has been part of EVERY password…

[hasty anvil]

I was about to say latin was a common theme of passwords lol

Hey Rob @pure loom got everyone all up and confused about Gold/Diamond clues

I think you were pretty clear in your description of them

This message here Rob: #easter-eggs message

[sharp flame]

yep! that one!

[coarse dagger]

Also this #easter-eggs message

I think, once, Rob mistakenly called Diamond clues Golden early on because he might have still been deciding on the name for them then. But I’m pretty sure there aren’t separate Golden Clues

[proud minnow]

OK… there are two types clues, first the clues that are linked to the password on the tier you are on Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Quaternary & Quinary clues…

[timid solstice]

@neon stream wake up SR is here

[sharp flame]

Quinary clues.. why did we even ask...

[neon stream]

I was just reading 😂

[pure loom]

You used the term "golden clues" which had never been mentioned before. I DM'd you about it and said there "Ahh, that’s probably just a typo… I called clues Diamond, Gold, Silver, Bronze in previous EE-hunts…" - so I assumed you meant there are no golden clues, only diamond clues

[sharp flame]

https://tenor.com/view/byuntear-baby-cry-crying-gif-25019897

[neon stream]

Thanks for the call 😛

[unborn pilot]

only 5 rabbit holes deep !

[proud minnow]

…then the clues that are pointing to the final answer of the entire EE-hunt… Diamond, Gold, Silver and Bronze clues.

[sharp flame]

this is worse

[hasty anvil]

hahaha

[sharp flame]

no Platinum?

[hard current]

that is

[formal moon]

thats the key or the lock ?

[hasty anvil]

We still have so much to find...

[unborn pilot]

i love that the answer is even more confusing. ultimate mind games 🙂

[formal moon]

or maybe we are just overcomplicating stuff

[spark dagger]

i will try to get back on track tomorrow, last thing i did here was in july

[formal moon]

maybe he means ranked tournaments ?

[coarse dagger]

So gold clues point to the Final LEVEL, not the final tier of level 2 "The Promise"?

Sounds a bit different to what said before (#easter-eggs message)

Ohh, and then there are there are 8 “golden clues” so far in total that leads directly to the final tier of Level 2 - The Promise.

[proud minnow]

no… but there are actually some clues pointing to RUBY (for example R3C, 0.018, မိုးကုတ်)… but I don’t think anyone found any of these…

[hasty anvil]

what is မိုးကုတ် hahaha

[timid solstice]

https://tenor.com/view/dizzy-shaky-woozy-gif-10273177

"that leads directly to the final tier of Level 2 - The Promise." so this is no longer what we should follow

there was a pic of a red gem in the ob hidden images

that probably meant ruby

[coarse dagger]

The socialites logo?

[formal moon]

0.018 ?

[hard current]

is it normally red?

I wasn't sure

[formal moon]

nope

[hard current]

then that may have been a clue to ruby we missed

[unborn pilot]

might just be a clue toward stone again?

[formal moon]

only red when you change the color of all teams

ah ok

[formal moon]

you can change to red

Corundum is a mineral formed by aluminum oxide. It was called "corinvindum" in 1725 by John Woodward, a term derived from the Sanskrit kuruvinda. Richard Kirwan, in 1794, used its current English spelling "corundum".​In gemology, corundum has two main varieties, ruby and sapphire.

The Mogok Valley in Upper Myanmar (Burma) was for centuries the world's main source for rubies. That region has produced some exceptional rubies; however, in recent years few good rubies have been found.

And if it points to ruby, where to go from there?

same here then maybe

I am too tired to reread Rob's statement about the types of clues there are

Bet just send me that DM and I'll do it tomorrow

[coarse dagger]

Wanted to try to give a final verdict on this.... I believe it's 110D631, not 110D831
*EDIT: See this post instead (#easter-eggs message). MP4 was a bad choice on my part for exporting, the GIF version is much better.

[balmy fog]

I'll also give y'all the PSD

If y'all got anything to change and stuff

[sharp flame]

that's so clearly an 8

[hasty anvil]

Sure thing, if we can keep it as pure clues that'll work

[sharp flame]

wait the video switches

[coarse dagger]

Good lord that is blurrier than before I exported it. 1 sec.

[sharp flame]

between 6 and 8 what is this

why are there 2 versions in the vid

[coarse dagger]

That's the original 😅

I superimposed the versions with a 6 and an 8 in red

[sharp flame]

it doesn't change the number, it's a static image tho 😭

[coarse dagger]

The video is my analysis

[sharp flame]

oh right

so that black shroud when the red disappears is the original?

[formal moon]

Clarity
Because rubies host many inclusions, their clarity is evaluated by the inclusions’ size, number, location, and visibility. Rubies with the highest clarity grades are known as “eye-clean,” because their inclusions are the least visible to the naked human eye.[21] Rubies may also have thin, intersecting inclusions called silk. Silk can scatter light, brightening the gem's appearance, and the presence of silk can also show whether a ruby has been previously heat treated, since intense heat will degrade a ruby's silk.

[sharp flame]

damn I can't make out ANY of the letters

[timid solstice]

@balmy fog We might have to highlight the clues we found and number them, and then add meanings. A sheets could work, so it’s the image with highlighted clues and then columns, then people can contribute easier

[hasty anvil]

If there's some way to colour code finished/unfinished, or themes, that'd be incredibly useful

[hard current]

i think @unborn pilot is great with sheets 😉

Sorry for the delay, I had a misunderstanding about the Photoshop Timeline I had to sort out before getting a proper GIF (I recommend clicking 'Open in browser'):

tbf I do plan on trying to move over to the wiki for our EE purposes

Obviously it can't replace Padlet for current tiers but it's a bit important to have some more readable documentation about everything

Hello

[upbeat ridge]

:)

[pure loom]

This is awesome

We have the unsolved Morse that can be added to THE_FINALS_CB2_Guns_and_Namas section

[coarse dagger]

Believed to be TRENTREO (#easter-eggs message)

[unborn pilot]

totally missed that.

just added it.

[coarse dagger]

5x bicubic upscale (because I think my post is being ignored because it's small)

You can see that the "connected" part making people think it's an 8 is not in the right location. I think it's just noise

[timid solstice]

I think the reason the 8 was brought up was because Rob said 831 ❤️

[pure loom]

I reckon the 8 is just a bit distorted

[pure loom]

why is this showing both?

[coarse dagger]

I think that may have been because we brought up 831 first and he wanted us to connect those numbers in the way RHB brought up here #easter-eggs message

[coarse dagger]

Beacuse its an analysis

[pure loom]

which one is the actual?

[coarse dagger]

The grey

[snow walrus]

There is no way that is 6

[pure loom]

yeah 100% an 8

[snow walrus]

Its obvious

[pure loom]

I'd say Rob added a little distortion to it to make it a bit ambiguous

[timid solstice]

I have always seen a 6

[coarse dagger]

The rest of the numbers are not distorted, it's possible Rob wanted it to be both...

But in that GIF I've overlayed the numbers and shown the upper right part of the 8 does not match positioning with the official THE FINALS font, while the rest of the digits line up perfectly.
And the noise is very similar color to the text. For example... look at the noise above the 3 and compare it to the disputed portion.

I think I've done this as objectively as possible TBH

[jade citrus]

I'm on side 6, the part that would connect doesn't really fit the 8 shape

[timid solstice]

But I agree a distorted 8 also fits as there is a “dip” on the left side of the curve, it’s quite clear in fishes first post of it

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1011929497139953744/1043582359808778370/image.png?ex=6574a74f&is=6562324f&hm=5c0fd8659736a3b233004d9dde0a3c4bf72fc4d5664f85115728e54198e0a32c&

Well now you're doing image analysis on an upcaled GIF. I know for a fact there aren't that many pixels in the original.

[pure loom]

In close up it is definitely less clearly an 8

https://tenor.com/view/no-pixels-cant-see-ben-chang-community-ken-jeong-gif-17361588

[upbeat ridge]

nah it's a 6

[coarse dagger]

I think even in your analysis of an upscaled GIF the portion you think is part of an '8' is closer to the noise above the '3' than it is the text.
In your analysis everything which is definitively part of the text is grey

And that portion is not

[snow walrus]

Is the small gif original source

[coarse dagger]

I've stated what the original source is about 3 times now

btw, 'ques' in latin means seek

and -tion forms nouns of actions

seek action?

[pure loom]

or seek t ion

[jade citrus]

not sure how you got this, google translate won't give this to me

[unborn pilot]

sooo, what do we think about rob's way of not really answering our question about the "golden" clues? was that a clue?

[jade citrus]

i think he cleared it up

[hasty anvil]

i just googled 'ques latin' haha

[jade citrus]

golden clues that lead to T3 arent a thing

[hasty anvil]

maybe i have bad source

[jade citrus]

the "golden clues" are part of the Diamond, gold, silver, bronze clues that lead to the FINAL level

[unborn pilot]

that's what i thought too. ok, so, then do we think the answer is "all of the clues this tier" point to the final tier?

[spark hornet]

WHATS THE ESTER EGGE

[jade citrus]

that's what I was getting

and also I can't seem to find a solid translation for 'ruby'

[hasty anvil]

I'm more worried how we identify bronze or quinary clues lol

https://www.wordreference.com/definition/-ques-#:~:text=-ques- comes from Latin%2C,%2C quest%2C question%2C request.

[spark hornet]

I need to know

[hasty anvil]

idk how good this website is

-ques- comes from Latin, where it has the meaning "seek; look for; ask. '' This meaning is found in such words as: conquest, inquest, quest, question, request.

[jade citrus]

I'm guessing those are clues that we find that don't relate to the current tier/level

makes sense yeah

[jade citrus]

please go through those links before asking any more questions

[hasty anvil]

i keep getting ques means 'ask' or 'seek' from some websites, but could be wrong

[pure loom]

"Dee took Kelley into his service and began to devote all his energies to his supernatural pursuits.[30] These "spiritual conferences" or "actions" were conducted with intense Christian piety, always after periods of purification, prayer and fasting." - possible link to the path I mentioned before: #easter-eggs message

[hasty anvil]

i see the link 100%

[unborn pilot]

i had a similar though with prefix/suffix - ques (prefix) & tion (suffix)

[hasty anvil]

Latin's the big hint

[hasty anvil]

so if ques= seek (gold), -tion means action

[unborn pilot]

You know looking at Ready_ & the tion, i realized both have shadows/reflections

if there's nothing super hidden in them directly, are we supposed to just look how they have similarites maybe.

[hasty anvil]

i think so

[unborn pilot]

see here "shadow" feels like a tertiary clue possibly to things that make a shadow (sun/moon) or use a shadow (sundial/clocks)

or its use in calendars again

[hasty anvil]

there's some kind of link with latin, vega, gold, space

[hasty anvil]

definitely

from the shadow direction, can we get time of day maybe?

like the old egg clue we had

[unborn pilot]

and then time/date/calendars lead to astrology/stars/constellations also

[hasty anvil]

thinking of light, the light reflection in gold ? is directly above (?), whilst white ? is just before midday

and also, galileo kept coming up

[unborn pilot]

well let's think about this. what "primary" clues seem to point to the final tier?

[hasty anvil]

latin definitely

[unborn pilot]

latin 100%

[hasty anvil]

this is how we solved it last time through common themes

[unborn pilot]

time/date/calendar?

or maybe clock

[hasty anvil]

maybe sundial comes from clock

which is the shadow hints

[unborn pilot]

right shadow = time/date/clock

[coarse dagger]

I think I found the exact one?
https://www.albany.edu/~rn774/fall96/props.html
https://www.albany.edu/~rn774/fall96/euclid.jpg

[hasty anvil]

themes I can think of: Latin, time (calendar, sundial, shadows), gold + egg, space (vega, stars, eta cass)

[unborn pilot]

was just looking back at Moire pattern https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moiré_pattern

[hasty anvil]

Points to Euclid, so we have Euclid and Galileo?

[coarse dagger]

I mean, this was solved previously. I just dug up a closer source image

[unborn pilot]

interference patterns might come back a few times, like be the relation to the Ready_ gif and how the lines are being cut off.

also has a ton to do with geometry

[hasty anvil]

ohhh i see, maybe it'll come up as a bronze clue or something too

[coarse dagger]

But yeah, we had Euclid all over T1D pointing us to geometry for the tier (0vif0rm)

[unborn pilot]

yeah i'm glad you guys are talking about math here

cause i sorta think the 3rd primary clue is math/geometry

[hasty anvil]

that's what i started thinking

or at least final level related

[unborn pilot]

moons/planets feels like "diamond" clues.

[hasty anvil]

we have astronomy and geometry

[unborn pilot]

and i think the rabbit hole of coding, c64, retro gaming is also diamond

we don't enough things to point to anything certain there just yet but tons of cool connection

[hasty anvil]

The diamond clue came from a url, so I would think bronze clues would be easier than that

He said diamond clues were the hardest to find

[pure loom]

"Probably the oldest known description and image of the Sigillum Dei is the 14th-century Liber Juratus (also Liber Sacratus, Liber sacer sive Juratus, or Sworn Booke),[1] attributed to Honorius, son of Euclid." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigillum_Dei

[unborn pilot]

that's what's funny about rob's messages. they neither denied nor confirmed anything, just put a smile on my face cause it's all connected then

[hasty anvil]

He gave us the little hint we needed haha

This feels like progress

[hasty anvil]

signum dei vivi is interesting

vi flashbacks

[hard current]

vega was a series of missions to Venus
also took advantage of appearance of halley/1P comet
1986
vega 1 and vega 2
Cyrillic: ВеГа
spacecraft launched on december 15 and 21, 1984

Vega 1 arrived at Venus on 11 June 1985 and Vega 2 on 15 June 1985, and each delivered a 1,500 kg (3,300 lb), 240 cm (94 in) diameter spherical descent unit. The units were released some days before each arrived at Venus and entered the atmosphere without active inclination changes. Each contained a lander and a balloon explorer.

The Vega 1 lander's surface experiments were inadvertently activated at 20 km (12 mi) from the surface by an especially hard wind jolt, and so failed to provide results. It landed at 7.5°N, 177.7°E.

The Vega 2 lander touched down at 03:00:50 UT on 15 June 1985 at 8.5° S, 164.5° E, in eastern Aphrodite Terra.

#easter-eggs message from this, I’m guessing RUBY is a gold/diamond clue for the final level

[hard current]

ah, probably not for this tier

[hasty anvil]

He told us what clues were hidden and what the answer is lol

So if he’s telling us, they must be difficult clues. But id guess like Quinary clues pointing to ruby

[hard current]

in omni scientia

in all knowledge

[hasty anvil]

This feels overlooked, Rob said everything in capitals, the ultimate question (?) the universe

But Ruby + ‘ad Astra’ could be linked

[hard current]

#easter-eggs message

are yall treating this as a clue to the diamond clues or a clue to this tier...

I image a diamond clue?

[hasty anvil]

Tbh, ruby=diamond clue, ad astra= tier clue, but not sure

If predictions are right, maybe we get a new image soon

[lament pawn]

just stumbled across this channel i didnt know there was a buncha lore what

just looked at that big ass spreadsheet what does tier theme mean?

ty

[hasty anvil]

I’m on mobile now I can’t really tell lol

[upbeat ridge]

What’s the dimensions of the question images?

[hard current]

1149x635

[upbeat ridge]

Just re-read everything

How are we supposed to have picked up on ruby😂😭

[hard current]

it would have been hidden in an image somewhere

but that's likely for a diamond clue

but why would rob specifically mention ruby now?

[upbeat ridge]

I get the clues he mentioned, but what part of “the promise” and 2 question mark images points towards rubies in any manner at all?

Ya’ll been talking about a number of life?

-tfee

What’s the command:)

!tfee

Heh

[hard current]

what command

just go to #egg-hunt-onboarding (ps this is my brother, I am not usually rude to others lmao)

[unborn pilot]

we're not. i'm pretty sure that's a new lead to make us think about the others.

[upbeat ridge]

the question us
Which came first: the chicken or the egg

[unborn pilot]

might be the numbers he mentioned alongside.

R3C -> RUBY coding? or Space group (in wiki) R3c?
0.018 -> Chromatic Dispersion of Ruby
မိုးကုတ် -> Burmese for Mogok -> Land of Rubies (https://www.palagems.com/ruby-mines-mogok)

[upbeat ridge]

You guys too smart for me🫡

[unborn pilot]

just trying to cover all angles and ideas.

in the end the clue could just be "red"

[brazen drift]

i feel that

[upbeat ridge]

This is so true it hurts

[unborn pilot]

i can almost see rob's smile as he gives us any clue. i was honestly surprised we got anything from him today.

[hard current]

Red gold is a gold alloy with at least one other metal (e.g. copper).

doesn’t seem to spawn any ideas for me

[unborn pilot]

Pulsars are spinning neutron stars that emit pulses at very regular intervals ranging from milliseconds to seconds.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(optics)

i'm currently down this pretty interesting rabbit hole

[hard current]

isn’t dispersion tied to one of the tiers?

[unborn pilot]

yeah and that's one of the numbers today.

it's just fun to learn tbh

[lament pawn]

idk if anyones said this yet but ruby is also the birthstone for july

which is 7th month

could be smth idk

[hard current]

we are potentially looking for a date and time…

[unborn pilot]

Ruby is the July birthstone – and it's one of the most coveted of gems. The name is derived from the Latin word ruber, meaning “red” – the color of love and passion.

ruber was a clue

[lament pawn]

also i was just looking at when ruby was first discovered and it was 2500 bc in mogok which i see has alr come up several times

[hard current]

#easter-eggs message

• Ruber

[unborn pilot]

yeah, just by word that time.

[hard current]

could be another hint to add red for that tier

only it also has another meaning here

[unborn pilot]

do you think Rob would drop more hints now relating to this exact solution, or to "future" stuff?

[hard current]

both?

[unborn pilot]

lol

i was hoping you'd sway me one direction

[hard current]

i’m wondering if maybe the diamond clues in the level need to be figured out to find the tier password

[hard current]

leaning more towards now, which is why if ruby is a diamond clue of some sort (golden, bronze etc) it’s a pretty weird time to drop it now while we’re all trying to figure out this tier

[lament pawn]

interesting i was looking into the largest ruby in the world which is the Estrela de Fura and was discovered in... July 2022

[unborn pilot]

So using that logic Ruby is not a primary but secondary or tertiary clue to our primary

[hard current]

that’s my current guess

[unborn pilot]

More likely the clue is in those numbers

[hard current]

which ones?

the ones about ruby from rob?

[unborn pilot]

Yeah.

[hard current]

R3C is the space group of ruby

.018 is the dispersion

Sapphire, ruby, and pure corundum are α-alumina, the most stable form of Al2O3

[unborn pilot]

#easter-eggs message

Yeah that message from Rock

[hard current]

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

In mathematics, physics and chemistry, a space group is the symmetry group of a repeating pattern in space, usually in three dimensions.[1] The elements of a space group (its symmetry operations) are the rigid transformations of the pattern that leave it unchanged. In three dimensions, space groups are classified into 219 distinct types, or 230 types if chiral copies are considered distinct. Space groups are discrete cocompact groups of isometries of an oriented Euclidean space

Euclid again…

In crystallography, space groups are also called the crystallographic or Fedorov groups, and represent a description of the symmetry of the crystal.

He contributed to the identification of conditions under which a group of Euclidean motions must have a translational subgroup whose vectors span the Euclidean space.

Euclid

[unborn pilot]

Euclid and I go way back

Do you think it leads to a person though?

[hard current]

no

[unborn pilot]

Is it a birthday we’re looking for?

[hard current]

https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Euclid_overview

[unborn pilot]

Or an event day?

[hard current]

rob keeps hinting at the stars (ad astra)

euclid satellite launched July 2023

[unborn pilot]

So event

I’m with that

[hard current]

ruby is also july birthstone…

orbits at L2

[lament pawn]

is there a padlet or smth for t3? im trying to get caught up with all the stuff so far

[hard current]

#easter-eggs message

@unborn pilot

[hard current]

yes but mostly empty

[jade citrus]

https://www.reachthefinals.com/ruby nothing :(

[lament pawn]

how long have yall been on t3? like when was the last one solved

[hard current]

uhhhh

[unborn pilot]

Not long

[hard current]

when did it start.. the 18th?

[unborn pilot]

2 weeks?

Yeah less so 10 days or so

[hard current]

started 11/17

[lament pawn]

oh damn

sick

[unborn pilot]

Or you could say it’s been on for a year since Level 2 started

if it all relates that is

[hard current]

Euclid is a wide-angle space telescope with a 600-megapixel camera to record visible light, a near-infrared spectrometer, and photometer, to determine the redshift of detected galaxies. It was developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Euclid Consortium and was launched on 1 July 2023.

you ever recall seeing something like this in past tiers cade?

[unborn pilot]

#easter-eggs message the way he said that sounds like “clues on the tier we are on” exist now. So do primary clues feel like - Latin, time/date, geometry? What else?

[jade citrus]

primary clues might be egg, gold, Latin, time

or mabye not egg and gold because those were tier-specific

[hard current]

could it be that we need all of the primary clues from the tiers?

that would be

yellow/gold
oval shape
latin
atoms?
6 (g=6)
3 or e?
1063?

[unborn pilot]

Egg-related, gold/golden-related but ties into solution in a meaningful secondary/primary way

[unborn pilot]

Possibly. I already see 1063 = ioge

[hard current]

An accurate model of the Imperial Coronation Egg was depicted in the 2004 crime film Ocean's Twelve. The replica was produced by design studio Vivian Alexander, popular for recreating famous items of jewelry for public and private purposes.[3] The replica is worth approximately USD4,000.[citation needed] In the film, the egg was stolen in a grand heist from a museum in Rome.[3]

just some connections between gold egg and rome (latin)

[unborn pilot]

Vivian?? More like ggan

[brazen drift]

possibly

The St Mark's Basilica (fully Patriarchal Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mark) is one of the most important cathedral of Venice, Italy. It overlooks St. Mark's Square.

St Mark's Basilica
This cathedral is a rare example of Byzantine architecture in Western Europe.

bro lmfao

byzantines, romance language (latin), started being rebuilt in 1063

[unborn pilot]

Rebuilt in 1063?

[hard current]

sorry yes that

[jade citrus]

i cant seem to find the message where rob confirms the romance theme, can someone see if they can find it

I thought RHB mentioned it, but i don't see it

[hard current]

I can’t seem to find it either

[jade citrus]

maybe it got deleted? or rob removed his reactions because it was misleading

[coarse dagger]

Rob said everything in capitals? I'm lost... what are you referencing??
Did you think the post you responded to was made by Rob?

[hard current]

#easter-eggs message

[jade citrus]

ohhh I get it

said "everything" in capitals

not everything he said was in capitals

lmao

[hard current]

I think latin was a huge clue from rob

[jade citrus]

agreed, he basically gave us a big connection throughout all the tiers

[hard current]

I’m curious if there are any passwords that were tried that were relevant that could be translated to latin

was there anything else that was present in every single tier

numbers

latin and numbers

1064
79 (lxxix)
51372
00 (latin answer)
3 (iii)
3 (latin answer)
6 (vi)
66 (vivi)

106479513720033666
666330027315974601

793666 (roman numeral answer only
106451372003 (non roman numeral answers)

106479513726 (gold related only)
003366 (egg related only)

maybe we have to use latin numerals?

[coarse dagger]

I'm currently working on showing where every known clue is in every image as a part of documenting the history of the EE hunt... I'm on Wallpaper_Into_The_Mystic from T1D right now.
I've got all my work online right now....... but I don't think I'm far enough along that I want to share it yet....

[hard current]

I think that’s a great idea, it’ll be needed I’m sure for the final level:)

1064 79 51372 0 3 3 6 66

any ideas on if this is meaningful, maybe encoded some way? were there any ciphers that were meaningful throughout the whole level?

[coarse dagger]

I think I just found the hidden T in "TITUS" in Wallpaper_Into_The_Mystic:

[turbid tinsel]

looks more like an 5 than a t if your talking about the square you have sectioned off

[jade citrus]

discord taking 83 years to load a 23 second clip 😭

[turbid tinsel]

im not seeing it

[jade citrus]

i see 👁️

[split forge]

The T on the finger?

[coarse dagger]

No in the selected box.

[split forge]

Lmao my vision can't see that

[south temple]

Has the Easter egg people found anything? I’ve been told it’s a wild goose chase but I don’t believe that

[turbid tinsel]

is what i see

[pure loom]

We never fully resolved this clue. Delta Omega Zeta Epsilon on the character's fingers. The number values for the Greek letters are 4 800 7 5 and we considered that might be for the colour #480075 but it doesn't really make sense because all other clues pointed to yellow in this tier (it's also not complimentary to yellow).

Good hunting! 🥚

[turbid tinsel]

was there ever an egg shape found in this wallpaper image?

[coarse dagger]

Eggplant

[turbid tinsel]

like the actual egg plant? where was it located, because i swear im looking at an egg outline

not egg plant related

[coarse dagger]

Feel free to post what you're seeing and I can let you know if there's something known there

Sorry, mid match DRG right now

[turbid tinsel]

it might be the egg plant but can kinda see the outline of it there in the center

[coarse dagger]

That's not where the eggplant related stuff was found. I haven't come across anything pointing out that shape in the past

[turbid tinsel]

heres another shot of it

[jade citrus]

i see an oval there

looks rather oviform if i do say so myself

[turbid tinsel]

almost seems like something is written across or over it but hard to tell if anything is or exatcly what

[jade citrus]

for some reason the words oviform and vitellus look weird to me, I'm more used to their EE variants with the letters replaced

like why are the o's in oviform so small

yeah I need sleep

[sharp flame]

@unborn pilot

(this spreadsheet is SUPER helpful)

hmm

302, 30/2 ?

[unborn pilot]

thanks! i'll note those too.

[sharp flame]

then -1 from every value in the brackets (44->43, 83->82)

we solved this one

[unborn pilot]

boom marked solved now

i know i missed some stuff. there's ONLY 200 things there.

[sharp flame]

haha that's why we should pitch in!

going through more of the list rn

[unborn pilot]

i have a feeling you're gonna find something out of place or connect something.

[quaint wing]

I appreciate what you've done. It's nice to see what we've actually come across now.

[unborn pilot]

i'll get through more this week, if not, then next weekend when there's less work.

[timid solstice]

sure does look like it!

so that led to Titus - Colosseum - Oval Shape - Oviform

[timid solstice]

did you manage to pull out the bowie whitehouse clue?
