a Goodle!

[snow walrus]

is there a clown in the game

i forgot

[quaint wing]

Just us.

[snow walrus]

another tale
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother_Goose

the pantomime was performed at Covent Garden (2nd theatre, Royal Opera House)

[quaint wing]

Listen, if you guys can get the instructions on how to get an EE to work in game, let me know and I'll pull it off. I'm not good at finding them, but I'm good at doing them.

[velvet narwhal]

You could try destroying all the generators on a map and look if something happened/changes

[quaint wing]

I know r.cade was doing that

[pure loom]

Yeah, I've just been starting to thing about these. Also, maybe shooting all the lights out on a map

Rob did say he was running around a map trying to trigger an EE, so it has to be something we can pretty easily do

[snow walrus]

yesterday* he said we will know when its time

[coarse dagger]

Yeah, aperisolve and stegonline give inverted results. I think stegonline's is more accurate.
*Edit: Actually I could go either way, 0 -> black (color theory), or 1 -> on -> black

[pure loom]

maybe it's when we solve this level

[snow walrus]

possible

another creation myth about golden egg
https://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Trimurti

[pure loom]

This is a weird coincidence, but after looking at the Holtow flashing light clue, I googled about how flashing lights work, and found this company who's logo looks like the ISEULT font. https://www.auersignal.com/en/signaling-devices/light-beacons/flashing-beacons/

[snow walrus]

yea it looks like

[pure loom]

Surely just a coincidence

[snow walrus]

and the site is AUersignal

its a fan

[velvet narwhal]

Auer Signal is a austrian company founded by Johann Auer. I think the similarity with the iseult logo is just a coincidence.

[faint rivet]

Out of curiosity, what’s the image that can supposedly solve all the tiers?

[snow walrus]

image named Slash i guess

[velvet narwhal]

it time for me to get some sleep. gn and good luck!

[lapis condor]

I believe they're just saying the first image given to start a tier can solve it

[hasty anvil]

Spotted in the meatspace

[silver finch]

meatspace

[hasty anvil]

Robs called it that in the past haha

[tacit wedge]

not sure if it's just the lighting panel or if it's intentional but it looks like there's some sort of panelling on the letters

[hasty anvil]

You can only see it on camera, so might just be the lighting panel

The only thing I notice, on another sign it said “can you reach the finals. Play now”. All the letters were spaced, but la was joined in play

Looked odd

[tacit wedge]

pby now

[silver finch]

probably the different clusters of LEDs on the sign itself

[terse saffron]

Idk if it's the right direction (or done already), but looking at the padlets I saw hamlet quote; gold is mentioned only once - in act 2 scene 2 line 452

Maybe numbers mean something to you who know more LOL

[fleet current]

Isn’t the season called act here?

Maybe it hints at something in S2

[terse saffron]

I should add, no mention of egg in the play

[terse saffron]

If that's the case, any idea what the "scene" equivalent would be?

And nah just checked, it's season in game

[jade citrus]

what, you egg
stabs him

[terse saffron]

LEGIT

[jade citrus]

i think thats macbeth tho

[terse saffron]

It kept showing me that when I was searching

Yeah macbeth LOL

[silver finch]

why the fuck did i send this here

i do not remember sending this here this is completely unrelated 😭

mb

[jade citrus]

the 100 year tier

[sharp flame]

I will cry

[jade citrus]

i already have

[sharp flame]

They gotta procure more than 1 cover art istg

I absolutely love the skin but I think I wanna see ANOTHER cool one on the adverts

[lapis condor]

this one probably my favorite but I know they want to promote the first season specifically

[faint rivet]

Did we ever found any of the 8 golden clues? (I think there were 8 of em)

[hard current]

that was technically debunked by rob I think

we got clarification before the game opened that there aren’t golden clues for this tier he misspoke

there’s

bronze
gold
platinum
diamond clues

all point to diamond clues iirc or something like that, but not anything specific for this final tier, we have everything just gotta figure out how to make it work now 🙂

[faint rivet]

Huh. Ok then. Dang who ever is in charge of the wiki page needs to update it . lol

[terse saffron]

we have everything just gotta figure out how to make it work now

is this for this tier in terms of clues?

[lapis condor]

yes

[terse saffron]

Okioki

[unborn pilot]

Didn’t he sorta “avoid” the question and then gave us clues about ruby & red 😂

lower case y in ascii is 79 btw. I wonder if “oye” is for 0, 79 and 3 to lead us back to our main numbers again

[faint rivet]

#easter-eggs message

I think I misunderstood about the 8 golden clues. I think he meant that it would help us get to tier 3, instead of helping us in tier 3. Unless I miss understood that too. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[hard current]

that’s why I said “technically” cause like, it felt like it but at the same time it did feel like he was avoiding it

and then he mentioned we’ve missed probably 30% of the clues but that we have everything we need

which makes me think maybe some of the clues we missed might be really helpful

[hard current]

rcade is right, when we got clarification on it rob kinda… avoided it hehe

so there might be golden clues who knows

[hasty anvil]

Our most recent clue is golden egg from patch notes right?

[terse saffron]

Has anyone found the "secondary meaning" from the answers for DEF?

[jade citrus]

egg

[terse saffron]

Yea that as the main thing

Ah I can't post images

I just happened to stumble across a github doing reverse engineering, the funny thing is that there is a github with a request to the site via js and it looks too much like the current request was written 6 years ago.

https://www.reachthefinals.com/api/auth/visitor/collection?crumb=BZngF2iVTL87YTMxZjdkYzRiNzIwMDE0NWY0MTk2MzVlNjM5Nzkw
site request

{
    "password": "test",
    "collectionId": "6557410e1136df4fbb6046c8"
}

And some of the code in git itself was written 6 years ago.
javascript request in github

const COLLECTION_ID = '5a614ecb0d9297aa9d8aa763';
// {...}
request({
            uri: `https://null:[e-mail]/api/auth/visitor/collection?crumb=${crumb}`,
            method: 'post',
            headers: HEADERS,
            json: {
                collectionId: COLLECTION_ID,
                password
            }
        },
)
// {...}

https://github.com/ArcticZeroo/boring-flamethrower/tree/master

Just as an interesting fact

it doesn't count as a bruteforcer because there is no password brute force logic there

www.boringcompany.com

[fallen jasper]

So I hope the moderators don't beat me up for this

Here's why we don't use AI on the easter-egg hunt.
Wasn't trying to get clues, just curious what Google Gemini would have to say:

https://tenor.com/view/dumpster-fire-dumpster-trash-trash-fire-kawaii-gif-16297697

[lapis condor]

It’s a generic JSON request it’s pretty common formatting

[fallen jasper]

With an identical path and identical errors

// https://github.com/ArcticZeroo/boring-flamethrower/blob/master/makeRequest.js
// {...}
             if (res.statusCode.toString()[0] !== '2' || body.error) {
                if (body.crumbFail) {
                    if (!body.crumb) {
                        return reject('Crumb was rejected but no new crumb was provided');
                    }

                    crumb = body.crumb;

                    console.log(crumb);
                    //return checkPassword(password);
                    return reject('Invalid crumb.');
                }

                if (body.errors && body.errors.password && body.errors.password.toLowerCase().includes('invalid')) {
                    return reject('Invalid password.');
                }

                return reject('An unknown error has occurred: ' + body);
            }

            resolve(password);
        });
// {...}

password error

{
    "errors": {
        "password": "Invalid."
    },
    "error": "Form field errors."

crumb error

{
    "error": "Access Denied:  Invalid session crumb",
    "loginRequired": false,
    "crumbFail": true,
    "crumb": "BRIOtvnbjEkMMjc3YThmNGJjYzk2NzU5MDI0NzRlZjRkN2IxOTNl"
}

About the same path, I mean /api/auth/visitor/collection.

And if you go to the boringcompany website, specifically https://www.boringcompany.com/api, you'll notice that there is no such thing.

[lapis condor]

Oh they both use squarespace

Very common sitebuilder

[fallen jasper]

hmm, but their api doesn't work, but okay. Let's just say I'm just throwing this in in case anyone's interested

[coarse dagger]

Original message deleted. Entire context of this conversation missing.

[twin hatch]

did someone already find the text "you have all the clues" in the ospuze pro juice image?

[jade citrus]

yep that's from T1D https://www.thefinals.wiki/wiki/TFEE_T1D

[twin hatch]

ah damn ok

[thick stag]

ds

[rotund raft]

the red dot is a red square? does it related to the map? But I don't think there is a place called "Red Square"

[timid solstice]

But I don't think there is a place called "Red Square"
erm yes there is a place... Moscow

[rotund raft]

oh yeah that

I mean in game

we only have Monaco Seoul Las Vegas, and...? I don't know what that map is called

[timid solstice]

Skyway Stadium

[rotund raft]

yeah, that, is Skyway also in Korea...?

[velvet narwhal]

I think its the only map not based on a real location

When you look at some blocks in the map it says, that the buildings are from the monaco map

[timid solstice]

its an arena with assets from monaco and seoul with added things like the hotel

[rotund raft]

I mean I searched Monaco with gold. Nothing shows up, but there is a hotel called Golden Seoul Hotel?

I don't thinks it's related, it's just a hotel

And also there is a Hockey team called Vegas Golden Knights, I'm just randomly putting things together

I mean for now Las Vegas seems to be the one with most clue, but It's big, really

[ocean pasture]

The site from the Holtow QR code appears to be up now

[timid solstice]

correct!
theres a thread for what we have so far
https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1185727960980922488

[daring drift]

if you right click the red button and "search" it under the menu that opens and then scroll down, there is a line of code (what i assume is code) that says: "Position absolute important" Cant post a screenshot for some reason. Dont know if its important. I just stumbled upon it

[velvet narwhal]

thats normal for the "style" attribute in html

[fallen jasper]

Bruh I didn’t know that the QR code for the holtow quote sticker actually works😝 is this apart of an Easter egg?

[tulip matrix]

[rotund raft]

huh, so it does related to a... Place?

[fallen jasper]

Thats awesome

[fallen jasper]

Lol I just read the post above mine, haha there’s my answer

[velvet narwhal]

position: absolute is just a html tag to set the positioning of the elements in the html to absolute

[tulip matrix]

Welcome to the dungeon I mean Easter egg hunt

[daring drift]

ah okay. thought i did somehting 😭

[tulip matrix]

You embraced curiosity and that's what matters

[daring drift]

thats a way to put it

[tulip matrix]

I often have a way of putting things

[daring drift]

Kappa

[sand scarab]

I dont fucking know. For all I know the website is pulling and displaying a image with 0 height and width (which doesn't mean that the image necessarily has those dimensions i think) from god knows where

[velvet narwhal]

the svg is the mask who turns the square into a circle

[sand scarab]

Oh it is? alr nvm then

[unique spruce]

is it assumed that the fire engine red reference is to be linked to gold egg?

like.... a gold dragon egg?

[normal moat]

was reading up on tfee t3 on the wiki and the page broke, can ya'll access it?

[velvet narwhal]

i can access it. try clicking the text and not the image.

[bold burrow]

has anyone here talked about the holtow wesbite

[velvet narwhal]

Yes, heres the information we have so far https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1185727960980922488

[bold burrow]

big thanks

[normal moat]

okay can get into them but cant view the pics tho ill just view them off the tfee site

[snow walrus]

only gold question image gives me error when i click on it

[velvet narwhal]

i dont think so, rob said we had everything we need before the release of the game. But it could be a hint.

[unique spruce]

right, ive said before it may be true that we have everthing we need, but there may be clues still being added to help us because were still not figuring it out

maybe we need to look at other images that have red for clues we missed

[velvet narwhal]

yes, maybe this specific type of red is used somewhere.

[normal moat]

so, is like the gold question mark and white questionmark referencing maybe where to find two halves of the password?

[velvet narwhal]

yes, we already know the two halve, they are probably "gold" and "egg". But we dont know how we are suppossed to use these 2 halves.

We need 5 truths which were true in ever other tier to know the complete code. Latin is confirmed to be one of the truths.

[normal moat]

ahh see i was thinking the egg part was part of the code was on a namatama and the black and gold was that that half was found on something with that colour scheme

5 truths?

[velvet narwhal]

this

[normal moat]

so what? like gold egg in latin? now im more confused

bloody aurum ovum

[velvet narwhal]

you are not the only one

Here are the codes we have already tried: https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1175206999802249307

[normal moat]

goddamn

[lapis condor]

There seems to be some purposeful misspellings in his message about the five truths as well #easter-eggs message

[tulip matrix]

gold, egg, Latin, Roman numerals, and... time?

[fallen jasper]

Might be a dumb suggestion but all those things are common on the Monaco map especially around that cathedral….. might be something more to it?

[sharp flame]

Gold, Eggs, Roman Numerals?

could you remind me

[fallen jasper]

Its a place irl known for luxury… gold. Egg….. can signify the cathedral if you look into it. Roman numerals….. the area was once apart of the Roman Empire and said counting method links well with the map. Latin….. isn’t it the only map in Southern Europe… that more so affected by Latin more so. Time…. Again the cathedral, cathedrals are known to keep time.

Idk it was what came to my mind when relating the words to the game

[velvet narwhal]

how did you get time?

[twin hatch]

I'm not available to look right now. Are there any clocks in the cathedral that use roman numerals?

[unborn pilot]

You said they’re common on the map but then refer to irl and historical stuff so unfortunately that’s not something we can go hunt.

[unborn pilot]

Pretty sure Monaco has been torn up and down since it was an early old map

[fallen jasper]

I can refer to the map and get the same results to an extent

[fallen jasper]

The map is based of of Monaco irl

[unborn pilot]

There’s a ton of little Easter eggs on it @twin hatch mostly in the parks

[fallen jasper]

So that’s why I refer to it

[fallen jasper]

Are there bells?

[unborn pilot]

Here’s what has been found in game https://www.thefinals.wiki/wiki/In-Game_Easter_Eggs

[twin hatch]

Don't know, not home right now.

[sharp flame]

we are missing a lot of things though..

like the graffitis.. we only found 1

but I guess they were added more recently

[velvet narwhal]

yeah, some easter eggs could have been added with the launch

[unborn pilot]

There’s new graffiti on each map that wasn’t in the open beta? We should update the wiki

I’ll gladly look out for it.

[sharp flame]

not new, just added back then and never found

and they were added in CB2, and it was just monaco

it was the clues for cacoiii

825c was the only one we found

that, and SR.!

[velvet narwhal]

i think this should be grouped by map.

[timid heron]

Did anybody check what's the barcode on white Tech Trousers?

[unborn pilot]

@coarse dagger @pure loom found a couple new things in Robatama btw. If you mirror the image there are numbers on his wristband. As well as another snowflake on his hat

[static rune]

Idk if this somehow helps, I don't care about the easter egg stuff, but the Kawaii candy shop sniper has stickers all over it, and one of them is mirrored to say T.3 instead of E.T

Sorry if this was already known or isn't helpful.

[sharp flame]

@sand girder ayo did you find something

[pure loom]

Great! Can you post the numbers? I think we might have got the snowflake though

[unborn pilot]

Posted the pic above. I can see the 306 (or 301) in the beginning and then looks like 3051 near the end. The 3 and 0 were clearest

Didn’t see the snowflake in padlet on Rob but that tier was full of them on other images.

Also this one is really hard to get clearly but in CB2 couple there’s something embossed inside the guy’s hat.

SR-72

[unique spruce]

i dont see sr72 there, i see more like 33720 or 33920, 38720 maybe

[sand scarab]

that part at the end kind of looks like it spells OSU

or OS4?

OSL!

[pure loom]

flipped it 180 - looks a bit like "uabee" or something like that

[sand scarab]

and the beginning looks like (2 or 3) + 30(0 or L? or 4??)

[snow walrus]

DSL?

[velvet narwhal]

looks a lot like it

[lapis condor]

or 750 upside down

[snow walrus]

and maybe SOL

or SDL

or SQL lol

[snow walrus]

lemme check

nah its more like D

[timid solstice]

Did you check the Padlet for these, pretty sure they were noted

Hmm snow flakes was on swas summary not as a link

The wrist band never got added

[snow walrus]

ya i couldnt see in the padlet

[velvet narwhal]

It's a pretty long string that ends in "DSL"

In think these are not the same position
#easter-eggs message
#easter-eggs message

[snow walrus]

this one is different

right side is DSL part

left is SQL part

[timid solstice]

we thought these were numbers

[snow walrus]

i thought 100 at the first sight too

[timid solstice]

Here is how we know there are 17

#easter-eggs message

[snow walrus]

17 letters okayy

[timid solstice]

You can see a couple messages above that some images from duh

We definitely found one snowflake before. Upper right brim of Robatama's hat. I think it matches your image.

https://thelulzy.github.io/TF-EE-quartz-obsidian-vault/T1E/Robatama

[unborn pilot]

Yeah I looked but didn’t see either. I had a feeling the snowflake was mentioned. Feel free to add if it helps!

[jade citrus]

oh this is really cool

[unborn pilot]

That’s it

I’m going thru older images and mirroring them and trying to do things like remove red, etc

Managed to get the whole a out in lapis

wait a minute got an idea

we have a normal robatama image

i'll subtract than the original

Probably the second one but then by what formula

Would you mind if you could send here two screenshots?, because I'm not leveled up enough

I found two barcodes on cosmetics

[reef oxide]

rofl, when you zoom in while inspecting the pets , you can hear the finalist breathing louder XD

[fleet current]

It is pretty certain that the password is a variation of golden egg with the 5 truths applied

[hasty anvil]

yeah you can send it

[twin hatch]

y'all found the symbols in the orignal robotam eyes right?

[timid solstice]

yep, best to check the padlet for that tier
https://padlet.com/Kyne/the-promise-t1e-ohsl9b4w3ncqnvqe

[twin hatch]

sorry there is just so much in the chat. trying to figure out what is relvant to this tier and what is already done.

[timid solstice]

no worries

[snow walrus]

Technically all level2 clues are relevant because we are at the end of it

[terse saffron]

Wouldn't that imply that "gold" and "egg" aren't truths, just the things the truths apply to?

[coarse dagger]

#easter-eggs message
Is this what you were referring to?

[fleet current]

Yes that is what I meant. Sorry if that was unclear 😅
The password is goldenegg but the 5 truths applied turn it into some thing more “cryptic”. Maybe I’ve missed some new Progress tho so take what I’m saying with a grain of salt 😅

[unborn pilot]

That one and many others point to Kari but haven’t fully solved why all the connections to Kari exists yet across moons, music and games

[terse saffron]

That's how it came off as, just from my reading I had the understanding that egg and gold were included in the five

That clears things up a little

[timid solstice]

yes

[coarse dagger]

Idk that those are numbers.

AFAIK there have never been any clues in the Namatamas with transparent backgrounds.

[timid solstice]

transparent?

[coarse dagger]

Yep, THE_FINALS_a_friend_you_APPARENTLY_dont_need has a transparent background. Typically if there's clues we get one with a background.

See how the grey behind is just discord's grey?

@nimble iron and @timid solstice as far as I can tell you two are the only ones who really tried to undistort the Nambatama numbers.

Any advice? I don't really see any discussion of how these distortions were performed.

I'm guessing using a twirl distort in photoshop?

@sharp flame the pfp always get a chuckle out of me. 😆

[hasty anvil]

Yeah that’s quite an old one, but there’s clues out there still to be found on most images

[twin hatch]

I keep finding stuff thats already been found. I didnt see it in the padlets but I may have missed it

[hard current]

make sure if you find anything you search it in this channel:) a lot of times it’s been discussed/solved but wasn’t in the padlet

[faint rivet]

Most likely the obvious/easier clues have been found and/or solved. You really, I mean reeeally have to manipulate the image to find those tougher clues.

[twin hatch]

yeah fair enough I guess if I dont know what Im looking at its hard to search but all good. I'll keep digging around.

Jk @proud minnow I love your puzzles!

It's more about how we interpret the clues!

[hard current]

that’s literally us

[nimble iron]

Wait wich one was this again

The one with the spiral

Or

[coarse dagger]

Nambatama. Context is linked in my message as well

[nimble iron]

Ahhh yes

Namabatam had a spiral in the background

I used a bit of gimp to try to unravel that

Got a number sequence out

Cant remember exactly what but it was coutning up or sth

Lemme find that for u

Heres that sequence

[nimble iron]

Look at the general thread and ull see the context on how it was found

I dont really know what it means tho, so i cant help u with that. Sry

Its just a long nber sequence

That rotates n shit

Man its been a while so idefk

https://tenor.com/view/champoy-el-risitas-kek-issou-etu-gif-17837830

[coarse dagger]

Yeah, I found all the context I think.
I'm just looking for a description of the techniques used to un-warp it.

[timid solstice]

I never realised haha

I do now that I have a coloured bg in discord

[timid solstice]

Tried that and I have a photoshop plugging from Flaming Pear called Flexify 2

yeah I just must have missed when looking thru them. all good thanks

[agile depot]

Have devs mentioned anything about the cars in the trailer?

[valid cape]

With cars?

[twin hatch]

I havent seen any cars or heard of any. Ive watched the launch and closed beta trailer. Anyone else have info on this? Also this may not be the right channel but someone could correct me

[amber veldt]

Not really an Easter egg related to the main story but are there any more Easter eggs related to weapons as in how the Battle Pass Lewis Gun skin shoots casino chips instead of bullet casings?

And I wouldn’t really call it an “Easter egg” but that the throwing cards have a unique inspect animation

[valid cape]

Known

[amber veldt]

I know, I’m asking are there any others like that for the weapons

I posted about the chips one a few days ago

I only just unlocked the skin for the DB so I can’t test the alien pyro, UFO pad or the raven revolver

Not to my knowledge, I just assume it was an early idea for a feature that got nixed. Likely a holdover from their Battlefield roots that didn't fit with their vision for the game

i just used the gimp spiral warp but in the opposite direction, kinda like unraveling reversible ultra laminar flow.

wait theres a good video for ultra laminar flow btw

https://youtu.be/j2_dJY_mIys?si=dd6f4kVup3_3EYVi

but thats off topic, what i did was just try to find the perfect radius and reverse spiral the pixels

why are you asking btw? is there some kinda clue that is distorted similarly?

[olive pulsar]

i really love me physics based chad discussion

[timid solstice]

lulz is systematically checking every image and clue we found

[nimble iron]

is there a reason?

just to refresh or?

thats a lot of work tho, good luck lulz!

ohhh thats absolutely sick!

when i got into the ee i had to read teh 300 page google doc and the messy af padlets to get up to par.

this overview is amazing man, keep up the great work

thats nica swell

@coarse dagger is making good use of obsidian i see, its been like half a year so i guess youve made a lot of progress in mastering that tool.

[rotund raft]

does the time on the watch have any meaning, or it's just for looking good

it's 10:05 on the watch, IDK, it's a golden watch

[random grove]

It seems to show your local time

[rotund raft]

huh, that's coool

if the watch can also work while having the suit it will be perfect

[olive pulsar]

does this mean it knows where i live?

it knows your PC time probably

[lilac scaffold]

I might be trippin but i thought i saw a face or maybe some sort of shape in the reflection of the wristband when it reflects the light just right

[remote terrace]

u are tripping my guy

[lilac scaffold]

You thoroughly examined it like i did?

[remote terrace]

which reflection? of the new watch in the shop?

[lilac scaffold]

Yeah that

On the inside of the wristband

[remote terrace]

I think they're just scratched tbh

[lilac scaffold]

I thought that was it but just wanted to what everyone thought

[remote terrace]

not a face for me but it is symmetrical

[lilac scaffold]

Yeah looks like a symbol, probably needs enhancement. Im sure once people wake up theyll get to itm

Im only mildly invested in this hunt and if i find something i report it but otherwise yeah

Noticed theres an orange/gold one

Plus they blink when ya shoot em

bruh.
Someone uploaded a screen of the leaderboard to Embark Studios maps page 😂

[snow walrus]

that's a real show off lol

[tulip matrix]

I hope that wasn't their intent because the scores are not even impressive hahaha

I was looking for interior pictures to try and match up this reflection

[turbid tinsel]

we went to dive into this and everyone pretty much said its just reflection assests and to not bother

[snow walrus]

and didnt get an eye

[tulip matrix]

Did they find the original reflection map on a store somewhere?
I would imagine Embark would make their own HDRI's and such

Any ways I didn't expect to find any easter egg. Just curious if they captured it from the office

[turbid tinsel]

nothing was found and majority pretty much shut down looking further into it.

[pure loom]

Who were you replying to here? The question above is an EE question. The 19th of December is the first date in the Death By Rhodent poster.

[tulip matrix]

Ah that's a shame

I'mma do it anyway

Embrace curiosity. If you find nothing, then now you know there's nothing to find.

I guess until it’s confirmed as an exploit, it’s ok. Good luck trying to see small details though haha

[snow walrus]

death by rhodent is playing at the stage i guess

[frozen crane]

interesting

[cosmic patrol]

So out of curiosity, is there any reward for finding these easter eggs? Or it's just purely for fun?

[turbid tinsel]

fun, possible steam achievements once/if they are added.

[cosmic patrol]

Ah gotcha

[turbid tinsel]

and recognition for finding clues from the saint himself with eyes reaction on your post if you find one

[cosmic patrol]

[snow walrus]

we will get Namatama's respect

[agile depot]

If they counted as cheating 99% of the playerbase would be banned for doing nukes

[velvet narwhal]

maybe even the saints respect

[silver finch]

Shoutout tungsten my favorite element

[lapis condor]

Zipline / red canister is a different sort of exploit. Homemade nukes are just using the games natural mechanics to their fullest possibilities 😛

[short barn]

I saw a video on that

It's some half-life 2 source magic there

Because I'm replicating all the results we've found.

[reef field]

hi all! Lore question, what build type was Odilia supposed to be? most promotional material has her with vanish bomb and throwing knives, but the final level of the battle pass she has the revolver

[reef field]

It's a feature not a bug confirmed lol

[snow walrus]

she has vanishing bomb i guess so is light

if i dont remember wrong

[velvet narwhal]

@solar glade Do you perhaps know it?

[reef field]

I'm leaning towards light too

[velvet narwhal]

same

[tacit wedge]

i thought she was a medium

[lapis condor]

she's mentioned to use illusions and trickery so I'd guess Light too but they know how ridiculous the Light's proportions look in promo material so they put her costume on a Medium model 😛

[velvet narwhal]

https://www.thefinals.wiki/wiki/Odilia In the wiki it also doesnt specify

[snow walrus]

Her signature gadget is the Vanishing Bomb and her signature weapons are the Throwing Knives.

[solar glade]

Light Class

[reef field]

@lapis condor @velvet narwhal the verbiage does strongly suggest light though, thanks for finding that! RJ does it look that bad? lol

[solar glade]

she was part of the Shadow Flock and they introduced the Vanishing Bomb alongside her

[lapis condor]

IMO yes lol, Light's look ridiculous in a lot of the Battlepass full outfits

[solar glade]

safe to assume it was her signature class

[velvet narwhal]

Could it also be that contestants can play as all types, since its only a virtual avatar?

[lapis condor]

Light's look like child bride's in the wedding dress

[lapis condor]

To be a nitpick, you create contestants and each one has a set class in the menu

[solar glade]

yes

[lapis condor]

so contestants are all one class or another, but the "player" piloting them can use any contestant they have made

[reef field]

Yeah the image of her with the revolver just threw me for a loop haha maybe we'll see someone else from her team that was a medium

[lapis condor]

and you can change the loadout and skins but never the class type

[solar glade]

think as if you as a player are part of the lore. the way YOU play the games is how contestants in the lore play as well

[reef field]

So Odilia could have been a person with multiple contestant builds? makes sense

[solar glade]

exactly, it’s just that her main/signature class was Light w/ Knives and Vanishing Bomb

and the ballerina her signature outfit

[lapis condor]

The specific wording in-game from the announcer's is Scott used to be a "contestant" so I imagine each contestant a player makes as its own entity

[velvet narwhal]

Then maybe Odilia was/is a contestant of an unknown player.

[rugged pond]

new easter egg gang member here

[solar glade]

could be. we don’t know if that was their gamertag or real name

as a reminder, Wiki material is lore-accurate — we make sure there is no misinformation in there

anyway, back to EE

[velvet narwhal]

How do you think the code is structured? I am unsure if the code is {gold representation} + {egg representation} or 1 word representing both.

[tulip matrix]

Just that one. I really just looks the same from any angle

[hasty anvil]

on a yellow box in skyway, is this normal?

the overlap in the middle

[hushed quarry]

anything to do with your graphic settings maybe?

are all boxes like that in your game?

[hasty anvil]

I dont think so, was in ranked so was unable to check but im pretty sure its different

[hasty anvil]

in an attic in one of the mansions where a cashout is not sure what to call it, once i get the map again ill get better image

[devout storm]

Figured out the easter egg on the back of one of the jackets a few days ago

[devout storm]

cat headphones or something

[unborn pilot]

@coarse dagger the numbers are a pain to un-warp, but it works if you do sections at a time.

If you’re using photoshop, set it to warp, then with ctrl left click you can add a warp point next to each number and use the little handle bar to rotate just that small section.

But on some numbers you can just use Distort > Twirl and mess with the degrees until you get something that works

[hasty anvil]

looks different for reference, couldnt find similar

[snow walrus]

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

another faberge egg is lapis lazuli

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lapis_Lazuli_(Fabergé_egg)

[snow walrus]

Materials used: Lapis lazuli, gold, enamel, pearls, diamonds, rubies

contains a similar decorative yolk with a small hen inside of it.[

[snow walrus]

Most lapis lazuli also contains calcite (CaCO3), and pyrite (fool's gold, FeS2)

[regal lintel]

i feel like this a good thread

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lapis_Lazuli_(Fabergé_egg)#/media/File:Clevelandart_1966.436_(cropped).jpg

Taking a look at this puppy we got a ruby inside there, with a decorative yolk

[snow walrus]

yess

history part
https://www.quora.com/What-place-does-lapis-lazuli-have-in-alchemy

[regal lintel]

It's got calcite and pyrite

that being said, this isn't new, but it hasn't been eyed by rob before

[snow walrus]

i saw some lapis convos but not faberge egg's

[regal lintel]

yeah, the lapis egg is interesting

[snow walrus]

apparently a coincidence

[regal lintel]

yeah, I'm surprised that a lot of the lapis ideas came from previous clues, but haven't been thought of yet

*here

lapis = stone, lazuli = blue

inside the Lapis lazuli is the rosebud, which is what people think the egg might actually be containing

[snow walrus]

Gold, enamel, lapis lazuli, pearls, diamonds, rubies

[regal lintel]

I feel like this checks off a lot of boxes for us... tbh

Looking at the watch, I think there's a few numbers on there

I think it could be "7674"

But it also looks like there's an "x0" on the right

Also the seven in the middle might not be a seven, could be a /

[hard current]

man

I suppose it’s time for me to get back into the hunt

been a fun few weeks of gaming but I’m itching to solve this tier

[turbid tinsel]

essentially all of the passwords are spelled with forms of numbers

[unborn pilot]

2 years, 2 atomic elements, and 2 words all with forms of numbers.

[quaint wing]

And the watch is 74, or Tungston (W)

[unborn pilot]

i agree with you both. it's gonna be so simple and using numbers

egg is 366, so that one feels like a good starting point.

[turbid tinsel]

i also feel like roman numerals may be required or something

[unborn pilot]

yeah 100%. i just can't tell if it's for one number, a section, or the whole entire thing.

[terse saffron]

Note from me - you can do roman numerals and time at the same time by putting numbers modulo 12

Like how clocks have 1-12 in roman numerals

Would have to be done before putting the parts together though, or else the answer would just be a number 1-12

[unborn pilot]

i have a feeling 404 might be in the answer somehow. i think this whole level (like the red x) has felt like an error

One other thought, egg being 366 could be pointing to 12/31 of a leap year.

[terse saffron]

Are there any other letter -> number transformations than e = 3, g = 6?

[glass lagoon]

classic leet has s=5, 7=t, 1=l, b=8, o=0, z=2, a=4 as far as i'm aware. i know the o=0 was brought up before, don't know about the rest

[terse saffron]

I'm trying to put "gold" into numbers

Closest I can get is 6 0 450

450 being LD roman numerals

Ig with 1 = l

6 0 1 500

6015?

[coarse dagger]

I do. I'll give it a go next time

[unborn pilot]

831 hex = 4061 octal -> 1064, and the 110 could be binary for 6 -> g

[spark silo]

lol

[unique spruce]

when i go to equipment > light, the text for throwing knives is flashing, dont think it was before, and my friends see it too

[terse saffron]

Idea with the truths, there could be an ordered process in applying them, such that by looking at the passwords we already have, we could figure out the order you're meant to apply them in

The root for this idea is that some of the potential truths aren't present in every password, but only because there's nothing for them to apply to

Testing time ig

[terse saffron]

This only makes sense if the application of rules can be mutually exclusive

Like, rule 2 happened, therefore rule 4 cannot

[terse saffron]

What I wanna know is, what form are the inputs

Text, numeric, a mix?

Idfk

I think I have an idea of what the rules could be though

Truths (Ordered):

1. Starting point
2. Translate to latin (maybe)
3. Leet - 3,0
4. Characters to Numbers - g = 6
5. Numbers to Roman Numerals - 6 = vi, 79 = lxxix

Really depends whether truths only include what's explicitly stated or if they have patterns outside what we know that we'd have to infer

This is from explicitly stated ones

[velvet narwhal]

Wouldnt g = 6 fit into 3. Leet? I think thats also just leetspeak

[thick notch]

[earnest nimbus]

Milking it

[unique spruce]

text still blinking for me, dont think its a bug, may have meaning

[tacit wedge]

that’s kinda what i was thinking, idk about that voice though
the voice is kinda similar to motley crue

my next guess would be led zeppelin

but neither are perfect matches imo

[tulip matrix]

Maybe it's AI generated 🤖

Would explain the lack of discernable lyrics

[mellow moat]

try getting the key the song is in and or if the beat count has anything.

[tacit wedge]

there was a hint that said bpm

or at least someone deciphered something and got bpm

[mellow moat]

its just the text cycling because it doesnt fit in the text field

[tacit wedge]

a cowbell(?) at 28sec might be useful to find bpm

[snow walrus]

my guess is 90bpm

[wicked pier]

when putting c4s now says "from the north pole!" or "wrap this!"

[tulip matrix]

Adorable

[tacit wedge]

can anyone quickly drag it into audacity and check the period between each cowbell?

[cerulean cape]

i think because the text is long it displays it in a different manner

if you see the full animation it blinks and displays the entire name

should there be another long name similar to that it would perform similarly, i suppose so

[random grove]

around 644ms I think

[tacit wedge]

so an estimated 37-40 bpm

for the bells at least

afaik you can multiply that by 2*x and have the bpm for the whole song

[placid cloak]

Y'all scare me. Respectfully

Like in a nice way

[tacit wedge]

x being 1 or 2, maybe 3

[placid cloak]

Just put it into a bpm checked

[random grove]

I wonder if the song is actually new or was there all the time. Had my music muted the whole time

[tacit wedge]

too simple, needs more over complication

[sand girder]

wtf are you doin with the freqency

[tacit wedge]

bpm

[placid cloak]

Send me the audio file

[tacit wedge]

one of them says e minor with 90 bpm

[tacit wedge]

@placid cloak

[wicked pier]

in monaco, in some houses with the fireplaces, above them there's some stockings, there's 4 of them in one i spotted, they had 4-4-4-3 gifts inside of them, possibly an hint?

[placid cloak]

Yeah it's 90bpm

[tacit wedge]

another says 89 bpm

[placid cloak]

It's 90

Obviously there is a bit of variance. But do you only care about bpm.

[tulip matrix]

Maybe there's a missing gift you need to find and put into the last stocking

[wicked pier]

too small to put the ones outside lol

[tacit wedge]

maybe something like the big ornaments you can pick up

[wicked pier]

actually it's 4-4-3-3, with candy canes in different spots uhhhhhh

[pure loom]

Has anyone looked up the chimneys?

[pure loom]

GOLDGOLDEGGEGG?

[wicked pier]

the candy canes

i do know a bit of assembly, maybe it's bit shifting?

considering the stocking set are 2 numbers
the candy canes would be 1000-0001 1000-0001
while the gifts would be RGRR-RGRR-RRG|-RGR| ( | = null/no gift )

[snow walrus]

have you guys noticed loading map music changed little like a remix

[pure loom]

Yeah, I thought that too. Maybe just an improvement?

[snow walrus]

its nice

[wicked pier]

just confirmed the stockings are the same

also it's the only (?) pair of stockings i found, most houses either don't have them or don't have a chimney lol

[wicked pier]

tested this with death free cam (light can't enter in the chimney), it's just closed

also breaking presents can drop you plushies sometimes

[pure loom]

I’ve seen masks that came out of them too

There was a rabbit mask left behind from one

[wicked pier]

it's... just animal stuff then?

i got namanama, an orange cat

[snow walrus]

there is a lilac alley in the monaco

lilac is strongly associated with Easter time because it flowers around that time; it is consequently called paschalia.

[wicked pier]

so many eggs

[winter idol]

Anyone know anything about the qr code sticker that sends you to a website with an ominous blinking red dot? I found it last night and can't find anything about it.

[wicked pier]

wait wh

[winter idol]

There's a sticker in game with a qr code on it. When you scan it it sends you to a website that's completely black with a red blinking dot

Oh ok, dope. Thanks

Holy fuck

They're going Sherlock mode on that shit

[sand scarab]

They're going sherlock mode not only with the QR-Code, but with every possible Easter Egg

[wicked pier]

the stocking charm pattern seems off, but i might making that up

[winter idol]

Yeah, pretty badass tbh. I originally thought the code was gonna lead to like a merch shop or something cheeky but damn, this shit is way out of my wheelhouse

[snow walrus]

We are EE hunters

This is what we do

[winter idol]

Keep up the good work. I'll catch up in a month or two or ten when there are youtube videos documenting all of your discoveries

[turbid tinsel]

not sure if there will be any EE's on them but there are twitc drops going on

[wicked pier]

i saw them talk about the actual holtow page, but not the page icon in the tab?

it's an hexagon

MAYBE NOT A CLUE but in the winter trailer the heavy has a new hammer, possibly related to god/ancient stuff?

[quaint wing]

There's not a lot of pixels to work with, but here's a screenshot of the menu in the new trailer. I zoomed in as much as I could in Premiere, but there's only so much to pull.

The Norse god seems likely

[wicked pier]

god of skiing............. with a bow
there's been concept art of japanese samurai armors... a bow would fit thematically

although i think the candy canes mean something

I thought the canes might be spacers but then the one on the end is out of place

[wicked pier]

RGB to HSV doesn't really help either

[tulip matrix]

rcgrr rgrrc rcrg rgrc

with the canes

[wicked pier]

cymk maybe?

the candy canes have 2 stripes, let's say +2?
4211 1214 412 124
it doesn't mean anything though

if we do number of letters (red = 3, green = 5, cane = 4)
34533 35334 3435 3534 = (hex to text) 4S3S44554
or if we do cane = +2 we get
5533 3535 535 355 = (hex to text) U355SSU

[winter mantle]

Has anyone done anything meaningful with the abduction phase of the UFO? I've found you can place a zipline up to it if you're directly underneath. I wonder if it's possible to bring a cash box there? The UFO phase always seems to happen on boxes 5/6 ie. endgame of a round.

[wicked pier]

you cannot do that anymore

unless i misread the patch notes

[winter mantle]

oh it was just a bug? :/

[wicked pier]

unintended, yeah

[winter mantle]

Doesn't it feel like there's something more to the abduction phase though? It's the new dynamic event. And the abduction phase of the alien attack doesn't seem to really do anything.

[wicked pier]

it shoots the environment, i think it's at the same level of meteor showers really

[wooden radish]

The greens in stocking 3 and 4 are wider?

I DIDN'T SEE THAT 💀 AND I'VE BEEN STARING AT IT FOR SO LONG

Ed Lear? Dealer?

[unborn pilot]

Leader works too.

[wicked pier]

oh god

[unborn pilot]

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

Edward Lear, Monaco (1865)

[wicked pier]

it's not the first edward in this chat either

[balmy iron]

Edward has a painting called "Finale" so perhaps this could lead towards a new map of Genoa, Italy?

[random bramble]

Can't embed the photo but I found the painting: https://nonsenselit.files.wordpress.com/2020/02/el_finale-l.jpg

[hard current]

wait this is a clock

it looks like a grandfather clock

[unborn pilot]

i can't find anything that matches it, but it could be. that's upside down and angled cause i was trying to match it to the finals logo near it

that's how it looks normally. there's a sideways finals logo on the right edge as well covering a portion

[unborn pilot]

that's interesting. Monaco is 1865 and Finale is 1864 (17-Dec-1864)

[wicked pier]

Another Edward is related to the gold stuff apparently

looking for people to try to start a group to try to trophy boost with, some of them are just insane 😭 its a pretty niche thing so im not sure how many people would be interested, dm me if you are

[unique spruce]

any chance "the promise" ties into the puzzle at all? did 'the commence' tie into the final tier?

[twin hatch]

wrong channel #lfg-na-casual or whatever region you play in

[terse saffron]

I had a thought this morning, the rules could be exclusive to each side

Like that 2-3 divide on the whiteboard

2 rules for gold, 3 for egg (or vice versa)

[hard current]

potentially, only issue with that is I don’t think Rob would’ve had it that way, there are an incredibly high number of variations for 3:2 and vice versa we could try

[hard current]

eh commence means beginning, which could make sense as it was the beginning of the hunt, but so far we have nothing concrete on what the promise is

[wicked pier]

Random lead of I thought
New monaco has 4 new * shaped balloons, 2 yellow and 2 blue, on the center of the map, possibly their position (lined up with the orientation ruler on the top of the HUD) could lead numbers/time? Or is that too much?

I don't think so, it's pretty clear that there's a division of rules

Gold side is more number oriented, egg side is more "latin"

Ignoring the viold and evivi ones as their own group (although 6 = vi) probably still applies, they have seperate rules

[twin hatch]

If you go to where the Death Rodent signs are (the 2 on the wall) and you crank up your volume you can hear the music coming from whatever is on the otherside of that wall in front of you. Its definetly metal music. Sorry I don't have a time of day for when my game took place.

[quaint wing]

You guys are doing great. I see all the stuff in the threads and the other goodies you guys are finding, it's refreshing to see ❤️ Here's hoping that pesky password pops up soon enough

[wicked pier]

Their ban was a real mystery

So, the Edward dude, he did "the finale" piece of art which is based off Italy
In Italian, gold is "Oro" (noun) or "dorato" (color/adjective "made of gold") clock/watch is "orologio"

Might be a coincidence, but the new watch is also gold

We also have a saying "cuore d'oro", literal "golden heart" which means someone very nice/sweet/dear

Also it's a saying "vino è oro", literal "wine is gold"

[twin hatch]

I found a sign that says. Auberge au Lion dor which in french is Golden Lion Inn

@coarse dagger how do you get that role FINAList?

I'm gonna sleep, but I have theory

[terse saffron]

This could be an indication of which of the answers from each theme we're meant to emulate in the final answer

Like, electron config for gold, and 0vif0rm (whatever this format is) for egg

And then they get added together at the end

[tacit wedge]

get to level 10 or 15 i’m guessing
