easter-eggs

[slow parrot]

might be onto something, or maybe some character lore in general we dont know yet

[urban wedge]

someone teach us about stars, we need a roman astrologist in this biznitch

[daring bluff]

tattoos are usually associated with "stories" as in you would get them because they would mean something significant to you, it's probably nothing other than referring to that fact

[left trench]

dragons and myths. id wager a guess that theres some story out there to look for

[queen hornet]

this explanation makes most sense imo, thx

[random bramble]

There's 74 on a couple of the pieces

[dry ginkgo]

can you zoom in the preview screen?

[random bramble]

Not really

[crystal salmon]

Who's E and R? Keep thinking about what Rob said about graffiti

[random bramble]

gdi I gotta remember slow mode is on now:

[opaque thistle]

Mmmmmmmmm King Arthur. Andromeda. Tristan and iseult.

[random bramble]

shu.ti.ai.ra / shu.ti.fu.ra

[worn flame]

what did rob say about graffiiti?

[crystal salmon]

#easter-eggs message

[vague flume]

shu.ti.au.ra? (last three look like elements in periodic table)

Au - gold if I remember correctly

[silk bolt]

walls dead literally

[opaque thistle]

Literary

[random bramble]

I don't think literary was a spelling mistake

[crystal salmon]

Literary. Could be a hint, library or something

[random bramble]

r = ll perhaps?

[opaque thistle]

Like a Rhotacism and Rhodent

[solar pier]

Eric+rodents 😎👍

[pallid sorrel]

there's a barcode sticker in tidy inventory set

[crystal salmon]

Does it say NCS there, or am I seeing things?

[spice lark]

@proud minnow so... about that three-headed-monkey hidden in Monaco... how hidden are we talking here?

[vague flume]

Ti - titanium (???)
Au - gold
Ra - don't remember

[queen hornet]

mm maybe nccs or ncu?

[random bramble]

Radium

[light walrus]

Has anyone ever heard a like 8-bit super mario-esque power up sound when respawning instead of the usual "coin into slot" sound?

[silk bolt]

yeah we need some hint abt that i sniped every inch in monaco

[crystal salmon]

meh probably nothing

[opaque thistle]

I almost see a ?C2

[vague flume]

what shu can mean?

[spice lark]

@silk bolt we tried colliding cannonballs, that didn't work.

[crystal salmon]

giggity

[dry ginkgo]

[spice lark]

Although he did said looking for them will not help... perhaps we need to listen for them?

[left trench]

how will you hear the extra 2 heads

[silent plover]

https://periodictable.chemicalaid.com/element.php/Hbb lol

[dry ginkgo]

yeah you can generate any it seems

[spice lark]

I haven't heard much lately with this tinfoil over my head

[crystal salmon]

Wonder if this guy is anything to follow

[ionic orbit]

Seen that aswelll, definitely a photo of that person that was made to look like graffiti. It’s the only one that stands out to me. My best guess is it has the same mask as the girl when you go to select tournaments in the play selection screen

[crystal salmon]

I've only seen it in one spot though, the rest are repeated

[ionic orbit]

It’s also repeated, found it on 2 doors on the edge of the map

[crystal salmon]

Ah alright

[ionic orbit]

It’s definitely something and may have been added recently being that 1.6 reworked a lot of Vegas. My guess is that it may be some kind of leader in CNS trying to send messages in the show

[opaque thistle]

On Monaco I saw a big ahh Boulder lookin thing out in the mountains that seemed almost shaped like a head, monke?

[crystal salmon]

.Is ther anything we're looking for specifically on the sandstorm vegas?

[light walrus]

I have never heard this when respawning before

[ionic orbit]

Doubt it, steal the spotlight puts it on the nighttime version specifically. There’s something there they want us to see and likely is the devs way of giving us a sort of custom game without actually giving it to us. Plus the entire season 1 battle pass is Vegas themed. Much of the hunt has to be there

[silent plover]

On the bright side, Rob won't really have to read much from us to see that we've made literally zero progress since he last showed up lmao

[opaque thistle]

Wdym

[light walrus]

Thats not the regular respawn sound

[cloud wyvern]

thats the jingle it plays if you don't instantly mash respawn when it become available

[light walrus]

I did though, and ive never heard it before or after.
but its a regular occurence i take it?

[cloud wyvern]

...play more?

if we are talking about the jingle, yes.

[light walrus]

Im gonna see if i can recreate it.

[ionic orbit]

“The writings on the wall… literally” ~ June. “Seek the truth beyond the walls” ~ CNS. “One NIGHT, three dawns” ~ also CNS. Everything to me atleast points to 2 things writing on walls and nighttime, conveniently the current event is nighttime on the main focus map for Season 1. The answers are in that event map through and through.

[cloud wyvern]

the jingle that you hear at the beginning of this (and most other trailers for this game) correct? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYQLw2b__qA

[light walrus]

Yeah, ive never heard it before

[cloud wyvern]

you can re-create it by not instantly respawning lmao

[ionic orbit]

Also the quote by June dropped the same time the event dropped so all the Easter egg stuff is there. It also being nighttime is interesting because of the Draco star constellation stuff we discovered as it can obviously only be seen at night

[cloud wyvern]

its basically a "hey your respawn is ready" noise in case you are not paying attention.

like watching a teammate clutch or looking at photos of cigars on your cell phone

[silk bolt]

i hate when my team always killing me while i'm looking for EE 🙂

[crystal salmon]

Yeah I agree. Unless the writing on the wall is referring to S lies, which I'm honestly not ruling out yet

[light walrus]

How long do you have to wait for it? im in a game right now and waited like 30 seconds past my respawn being ready

[ionic orbit]

Speaking of… not sure if it’s been discusssed but S has to be Sarah right? Maybe lying about what’s in the Ospuze?

[cloud wyvern]

depends on what game mode, might be bugged atm too. wouldn't be surprised if it was. promise its very normal and not an EE of any kind.

[crystal salmon]

Could be Scotty, he sounds sus af in the video

[light walrus]

Must be, i ahve almost 200 hours, and thats the first time ive heard it

[silent plover]

it's definitely completely unrelated to the EE hunt though lol

[ionic orbit]

Just watched it back you right. It seems very intentional to mention ospuze like that. Maybe it’s more of an addictive drug than an a drink. Or since we are in the future I’ll go a little more Sci fi and say it’s some kind of mass population mind control. June seems to be aware of what’s going on while Scotty seems stupid or atleast opposing to her view.

[crystal salmon]

Thought - the walls rob was talking about could be outside of the map too. I noticed a building outside of map with 6 Death by Rhodent posters next to each other. idk

[crystal salmon]

"who needs water", definitely sketchy

[light walrus]

my bad

[shrewd fog]

has anyone thought of looking at all the team icons together? and they form something?

[queen hornet]

what about the actual game walls? is it possible there are irregularities in it somewhere?

[ionic orbit]

The sponsors are definitely evil to some degree. And CNS is hacking or rather as Scotty says “glitching” messages into the show. But yes I think outside the map there is messages. Time to grab a sniper and see what else CNS is trying to tell us

Also for the rabbits we are trying to find are also likely sent by CNS. “ The White Rabbit is so curious, so strange, that Alice cannot help but to follow him” in this case we are Alice and CNS is attempting to lure us somewhere using the white rabbits, to again tell us some kind of truth beyond the walls.

[crystal salmon]

I doubt it, as it could open up for some weird plays

[ionic orbit]

Just realized the 5 truths we are trying to find also might be referring to the real truths of the nature of the 5 sponsors currently in game and what they are actually up to

[crystal salmon]

Just me, or does every sign by the traffic lights in vegas say this?

[queen hornet]

we already ‘know’ 4/5 truths, right? they’re on the padlet iirc

[silk bolt]

there's only 4 sponsors no?

[light walrus]

Theres like 20

[lapis moat]

no

[queen hornet]

gold
egg
latin
space
padlet says these have all been eyed as truths

[silk bolt]

is this the finals logo?

[lapis moat]

son that is an arrow

[silk bolt]

yeah but the ones currently in the game are like 4 the ones we hear and sponsor the matches

[silk bolt]

wot

[queen hornet]

‘>’

[lapis moat]

no brother that's not a logo it's literally just an arrow pointing to the jumppad

[ionic orbit]

Holtow, Ospuze, Volpe, DXZ, Isult. DXZ is featured the least but can be seen on some cosmetics

[silk bolt]

i thought it's some kind of this sponsor logo lol

[ionic orbit]

I mean egg could kinda fit in there yea? Isn’t one of Ospuzes ingredients egg?

Ospuze is the only sponsor we actually really know that much of anything about atm

[crystal salmon]

Wonder if T3 is tier 3

(from the XP-54 Tidy Inventory skin)

Also a rubber duck on it that kinda stands out

[queen hornet]

fit in what?

[silk bolt]

this skin is interesting

[crystal salmon]

VIRTU4L can also be found as graffiti

[naive rover]

Sick

[shrewd fog]

any progress on the roses EE?

[rich grove]

@gloomy anvil @pure loom backside of the charm in 8k + twitch unlocks

8k map

[naive rover]

Don’t think so, I think I was the last person to try

[crystal salmon]

Who is F.L.?

[silent plover]

No progress on the main EE hunt either. We seem to know we have the pieces, but there's nothing that really connects any of them in a compelling way

[naive rover]

Yeah, been like that for a while

What we need is rob to pop in
(I will not mention him)

[silent plover]

It feels like we’re just missing a “why”
“Gold egg” is kinda thematic with Namatama I guess, but beyond that it feels like we’re not really pointed toward discovering a particular thing for a particular reason

[rich grove]

seems like weve been close for a long while. everything is just gold+egg+latin+space+1337. cant seem to combine those into a proper password

[vague flume]

if we assume that password contains only numbers - Gold is 79

[light walrus]

Gold's melting point in kelvin is 1337. probably meaningless but a fun fact

[rich grove]

we cant assume that. nobody knows exactly what the password should be

[silent plover]

But it’s related to both gold and egg

[lapis moat]

I mean when I see those 5 clues I immediately think Da Vinci

[vague flume]

wait... We had like... G=6 right???

[velvet narwhal]

Yep we have had 4 sponsors but also multiple brands: https://www.thefinals.wiki/wiki/Sponsors

[vague flume]

can Latin reffer to Lantanium in Table? Like... La?

OH MY FUCKING GOD WAIT

[silent plover]

Something something periodic shift, something something xenon, cesium, rhodium, something something binary stars create gold and xenon and cesium

[silk bolt]

gold=6 in period table

[vague flume]

G = 6 is reffer to period table but we also have atomic numbers?

I might be really wrong here but what if...?

ok wait

I wrote a full shit here, don't listen to it

I'm just idiot

That's enough coffee for today

[silk bolt]

it's also Lanthanum not lantanium

[alpine junco]

Any new leads?

[crystal salmon]

Which elements do we have references to so far? Gold, argon, rhodium...

[silent plover]

None lol

[alpine junco]

#1199692820454322306

[silent plover]

Gold, xenon, cesium, rhodium, and some others I forget

[alpine junco]

Isnt this the only construction sight with arrow like signs

There are two on the crane that go down and are VV

[silk bolt]

yeah maybe it doesn't mean anything

[silk flax]

Prolly their way of numbering floors

[alpine junco]

There is something in skyway tho

[silk flax]

I'm going to Vegas this week so I'll follow the master plan blueprint 😂

[silent plover]

Yeah the chances of giant arrows that point to jump pads having a deeper meaning for any of the EE hunts is pretty much zero lol

[alpine junco]

It goes

V
V

[silk flax]

Is the horizontal one lead to bounce pad?

I just think we might be reading too much into it if it does

[silk bolt]

is this a face or i need to sleep?

[alpine junco]

The double down arrow leads to the bridge

[silk flax]

Sleep lol

[alpine junco]

Schizophrenia but i see the eye and nose

[silk bolt]

i hate it😂😂

[silent plover]

Definitely sleep lol

[deep lintel]

https://tenor.com/view/gayixiangs-gif-22421534

[crystal salmon]

100% sleep

[turbid tinsel]

Guys, tossing out a theory

[rich grove]

is "S" just... the finals?

[turbid tinsel]

Latest art and nama image was 3 v's, rob eyed vedi vidi vici, 3v's, last two passwords combined, 3 v's (vi's).

[silk flax]

Where this from?

[rich grove]

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GrLjT7tc3TVFXG962MviGTZZcJMHPKpg/view?usp=sharing converted in-game video at full (4K) quality

[turbid tinsel]

3vold or maybe something like 3fold since mirroring is a form of folding

And black holes/worm holes just fold time in space or something like that

[silk flax]

But that's just a theory... A game theory

[coarse dagger]

Ugg, I always type that wrong. FIXED!

[silk bolt]

idk if this could be something or just a bug but when you destroy the light in this room the whole thing turns into white and black and there's some sun shining from the wall even it's night in vegas

[coarse dagger]

#easter-eggs message

[brisk hearth]

How does egg or gold fit into this?

[timid cedar]

The same is happening out od the practise range i think this has to be a bug with lightning in extreame dark places

[velvet narwhal]

could it be your graphics settings?

[timid cedar]

Btw did you guys notice that the shop yesterday had 1 day and when it should change to the more precise countdown it jumped into 2 days and today it is still 2 days or is it happening only to me???

[silk bolt]

rtx? it's on epic and most of other things on epic and high

[timid cedar]

I Play on ps5 and have the same idk if ps5 has rtx

[velvet narwhal]

just checked, it's 2 days for me too

[timid cedar]

Wierdd i was waiting for it

[silk flax]

Don't shop just change when updates happen?

Don't think I've noticed the timer meaning anything

[timid cedar]

The weekly contracs also changed to 2 days

[alpine junco]

maybe becuz they started 5 days ago

[junior swan]

Anyone down to some animal hunting? 🐒🐰

[civic hornet]

Whats the situation this morning?

[dusky grove]

Can someone send me the blinking moon vid on Vegas? The guy I was working with on it blocked me over a conversation about red canister nukes being OP so idk where to find the video now

I'm semi close to figuring out what the code means

[coarse dagger]

The Secret of Psalm 46

[dusky grove]

I just need the moon vids for Vegas. I've be told Monaco and Seoul have the same pattern so I should be fine there

[short bear]

RockhoundBlack has this video which shows it at 6:29: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9qVi3fPBX4 Don't know if its the one you were looking for tho.

[velvet narwhal]

this is on monaco

[civic hornet]

ive got it, 1 sec

[civic hornet]

Here you go#easter-eggs message

@dusky grove have you figured out the code its in? Ive noticed that are four parts of the code

[dusky grove]

I tried checking it out in morse and ascii. Will try out binary later

In morse it translates to H###E#ET

[civic hornet]

I assumed Binary before researching the moon more and binary uses 3 parts, dot, dash, blank

[dusky grove]

I'm thinking that the blinking on Vegas is going to fill in the #

[civic hornet]

the moon has too many types of light

[dusky grove]

I think low light and medium light are the same thing by the way. When I saw the video, I interpret it as no light. Singular light. Double light

[dusky grove]

Slight problem. These are way too short vids to tell anything.

[civic hornet]

Agreed, putting what youve got into a hangman solver I get: huguenet houselet hanzelet

[dusky grove]

Like the one I already have was 27 seconds of blinking till said blinking stopped which is how I got my current stuff

[dusky grove]

Are these actual words lmao? Other than houselet maybe

[civic hornet]

I recognise houselet hahah

[dusky grove]

I'll keep on the lookout for moons. I already have the Seoul or Monaco moon I think and I've been told its the same as Monaco or Seoul one

AFAIK, Vegas is the only different one, but it's has weird conditions I have to follow which idk how to do

[silk bolt]

what conditions? i encouterd it once but didn't do anything just got outside of building and sniped at the moon and it started flashing

[dusky grove]

Conditions were a specific time. I'll try shooting though

[silk bolt]

hmmm really dunno i did that at the start of the match

[dusky grove]

I need to find a code that uses 4 inputs if Polio's words are right

But for now moese and binary are the only promising ones

[civic hornet]

The reason I beleive it is 4 inputs is because there is no consistency as to the order of flashes. If for example low light was a ramping of the effect to medium you would expect to never see a low light sandwiched by no light. If that makes sense

Its very possible the video I was working from was scuffed in some way though

[short bear]

Sorry for the video being monaco. Only realized after and jumped the gun.

[dusky grove]

Yeah it's confusing aswell

What code uses 4 inputs though. I don't anyone of those

[signal grotto]

has anyone realised the giant red moon or whatever it is, right in the sky in the skyway stadium? Maybe its related to something

Its just weird how its there, probably part of VR arena or maybe not

[civic hornet]

Thats what tripped me up, I think well need multiple videos of the same maps moon from different angles and settings as its possible either the recording or the implementation in the game is scuffed in some way

[dusky grove]

I think it's just part of the arena, though you should keep looking at different craters and stuff on it for details

[civic hornet]

Have you confrimed that Monaco and Seouls flashes are the same? The only thing ive confirmed is that Vegas' (pretty sure it was vegas') flashes are on a different part of the moon

[dusky grove]

Yeah that's what I'm thinking

[dusky grove]

The flash in roundhouse's vid looks pretty different from the one I saw

So since his is Monaco I might be Seoul. But the vid I have has plants which are pretty rare on Seoul too

Unless, different codes are playing at different times in one match

[civic hornet]

I think we need to make sure the flashes are consistent within a single map

maybe across players even, because if theyre not then were more likely looking at a bug

[wheat portal]

Maybe make a spreadscheet

[civic hornet]

we definitely need a thread or a padlet dedicated to moon flashes

[silk bolt]

i'm in vegas rn

[wheat portal]

Would make it a lot easier to see patterns

[silk bolt]

the keep flashing repeatedly and fast

[civic hornet]

try get a video. We can slow it down in post after

[silk bolt]

and doesn't stop

[civic hornet]

if we can line up when your video starts with another we can go from there, also try line up the moon with the center of your screen

[twilit sail]

any new things discovered

[silk bolt]

also i figured that to make the moon flash it requires to aim at some specific spots

i'll decompress the video because it's too big

[civic hornet]

def interesting, I havent acc had a chance to see it myself yet and have been working off other peoples videos

[silk bolt]

hmmm there's something wierd

[civic hornet]

pray tell

[carmine trench]

Which map is the moon flashing on?

[coarse dagger]

I learned a new term today, something we've been doing a lot of in this hunt, but didn't have a word for:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gematria

the practice of assigning a numerical value to a name, word or phrase by reading it as a number, or sometimes by using an alphanumerical cipher. The letters of the alphabets involved have standard numerical values, but a word can yield several values if a cipher is used.

[civic hornet]

All but Skyway I believe

[carmine trench]

Okay so just any night time map

[civic hornet]

yeah

[carmine trench]

Im gonna attempt to record this at highest quality

[civic hornet]

make sure to take the sniper

appreciate the help @carmine trench

[carmine trench]

it only flashes with a sniper or if you do it once with the sniper, does it continue flashing?

[civic hornet]

You can get it to flash without the sniper but lining it up is tricky and a bigger view of the moon is better

[carmine trench]

What about in freecam mode?

[coarse dagger]

If there does turn out to be an easter-egg with the cannons in Monaco...
Puzzle Cannon
is a homonym of
Puzzle Canon:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canon_(music)#Puzzle_canon

[civic hornet]

If possible keep in mind the ammount of contrast on the moons surface, if its overblown then making out the flashes is trickier

[civic hornet]

need a longer video than freecam can provide

[carmine trench]

What's the max you can get on freecam?

pretty sure we can get up to 1 minute or so

[civic hornet]

looking into cyphers, I wondered if were supposed to translate something to or from a new word using the Ceaser Code

[civic hornet]

oh yeah you can just no respawn lol, haha I always forget because I tend to spam space bar

[carmine trench]

Right exactly

[silk bolt]

minute or 2 on solo mode but only for vegas rn

[carmine trench]

Vegas is always night time

On that one

[civic hornet]

Using the Ceaser cipher appears to not be useful, unlesss someone spots something here I didn’t

Forwards

Holtow - Iseult - Ospuze - Scotty - June - S Lies - Gold - Nobel - Mirror - Pulsar

[vague flume]

Ceaser cipher has amount of steps (???) or something like this

[eternal violet]

well you can get 26 different outputs using caesar with standard alphabet

[vague flume]

up to 26 I believe

Like

1: A -> B
2: A -> C
3: A -> D

And so on

[silk flax]

https://tenor.com/view/hurty-rick-and-morty-brain-gif-23491250

There's so much

[civic hornet]

whoops, i used the wrong ammount of steps, Ceaser used 3 so we should probs do too?

[vague flume]

Maybe

[eternal violet]

dont think you gonna find something from these words, need something garbled, it was used in previous tiers tho

[civic hornet]

Results are still nonsensical

[civic hornet]

wait ceaser cipher was? DIdnt even clock

[fallen jasper]

Anyone else find it strange that this cannon shoots into nowhere? https://gyazo.com/c60ba7e3cfdbc53bdeafd4c13d6556ab

[silk bolt]

idk if the moon has something for me it's like flashing repeatdly and fast at different spots and there's no clear pattern with it

[carmine trench]

are we sure it's morse code

I made it flash even faster, by being in freecam at the very top of the map

[vague flume]

Looks like morse code

[eternal violet]

im not sure anymore lol, ctrl-f gave nothing for tier 2 wiki, but with all latin,roman,caesar themes you would think it was already part of something 😄

[carmine trench]

It's like lightning speed

Maybe it's positional to looking at the moon where you must be standing

Like a hot/cold signal, faster is closer.

[civic hornet]

The more I look into the moon the less I see a pattern. It's frustrating

I'll go through frame by frame at lunch

[eternal violet]

it just looks like constant blinking

[carmine trench]

can I embedded in here?

[civic hornet]

The issue with it being morse code was that I found 3 levels of brightness to the flashes meaning we have 4 inputs as opposed to morse which has three

[silk bolt]

doesn't seem to be useful

[civic hornet]

Agreed

[silk bolt]

holtow>krowrz

using 3 steps

[civic hornet]

What's Krowrz?

[silk bolt]

idk that's using ceaser cipher 3 steps

[carmine trench]

Here you go I got a gif for yall

[rotund elbow]

Quaternary numeral system?

[silk bolt]

it's low quality because of the compress but it's not useful the moon flashes in random ways at random spots with no pattern

[vague flume]

Maybe it's just some kind of bug?

[silk bolt]

maybe but not confirmed

[sharp flame]

It's confirmed to be on purpose I think

[small token]

Hi i was just looking at the padlet board and there seems to be some signifigance to the number 666. An i remember watching a youtube video about the rulette wheele weapon skin that said that ususally a roulette wheele number if u add them up it is 666 but for the skin it was something different. Has this been talked about? Is there something to this?

[carmine trench]

I'll post a video soon at highest quality

[vague flume]

Ok now it really looks like a bug

or at least not a morse code

[carmine trench]

This was in Steal the Spotlight, while in freecam. Uploading to YT right now

[vague flume]

it's so sad that we don't have custom games rn just to explore map

[carmine trench]

I'll try a sniper video next

[eternal violet]

roulette in game adds up 622, and rob mentioned 622 in roman numerals in youtube comments, but afaik nothing came from this yet

[small token]

hmm ok

[carmine trench]

There's also this thing with morse code is that, some of us may have differentiating framerates on our computers/consoles. Morse code that fast? Something may get lost between 240 and 30 fps.

[vague flume]

I think if it really were a morse code thing it would be the same for everyone in all conditions

[carmine trench]

The game does have it's fair share of graphical garbling

I noticed during the loadout screen before starting a match, there's purple hues around the contestants. Just purple spots of light, and it looks like this but in white. It's random, when it happens.

[civic hornet]

Interesting, will look into this

certainly an issue but with how thorough SR is I cant imagine them messing a ee up

or at least fixed itat this point

[fast crescent]

Aaaah shit I thought I found something being able to place equipment outside of the map border on Vegas. Did some more testing and now I see I can do the same on Monaco, so I don't think it actually means anything. Dropping it here just in case

[civic hornet]

Perhaps if it was done in a specific place with a specific piece of equipment?

god I hope the result of this EE hunt is something cool

better not just be a megladon

[silk bolt]

ospuze drink

[civic hornet]

What like a real one? Id rather not drink gamer pee

[silk bolt]

i feel like ospuze is behind everything

[vague flume]

Ospuze and CNS on the same side

imagine

[silk bolt]

always hated ospuze

[vague flume]

just like... Scotty was drinking Ospuze drinks and said that hacks are just glitches. What if Ospuze making people believe in this so CNS can continue what they are doing?

[zenith fern]

[warm mesa]

yeaa

[vague flume]

just think about it. CNS offered Sophia some kind of deal. For some reason Ospuze became as i believe #1 drink in the world. You sell drink, and then after everyone on them you start adding drugs or something like this

Then everyone is kinda closing eyes on glitches. And here we have CNS

[teal quiver]

If the moon code is different person to person maybe its class based or something we change on our end

[vague flume]

But I'm just imagining things

[civic hornet]

what would CNS' end game be?

[earnest wagon]

This is probably better suited to #1203749055147278406

[vague flume]

The Messiah of Gamer PEE has arrived

[vague flume]

Aren't they want people live in Real World instead of VR?

[earnest wagon]

God I hope that isn't my legacy.

[civic hornet]

it is and always will be to me

[vague flume]

i just realised that chapter in ARG literally called "Promise". What if CNS and Ospuze really has connections?

[civic hornet]

Or maybe a broken promise?

[vague flume]

yeah

Moon - Exhibit A https://youtu.be/PIxo5CpJVmo?feature=shared

Moon - Exhibit B https://youtu.be/uajuOOLIDCc?feature=shared

Might just be a graphical thing. Idk

[vague flume]

then next chapter might call "betrayal" or smth if this theory is true

[civic hornet]

well have to wait and see I guess, until then the hunt continues

[vague flume]

yup

[civic hornet]

#easter-eggs message CSN is the Swedish board of student finance, The Finals is all about paying off your student debts confirmed

[vague flume]

CNS are here to make you pay taxes. All in-game purchases is tax paying

[civic hornet]

"The Promise" of higher education being at all worth it

[vague flume]

XD

"Betrayal" cuz you forgot to pay your debt

[carmine trench]

hmmm anyone looked at the Press Start glitching out before?

[civic hornet]

How so? Not aware of this

[carmine trench]

hard to capture

[civic hornet]

Can you explain it?

[carmine trench]

flash, flash off normally

randomly glitches off

https://i.postimg.cc/jqMsmPhG/Screenshot-2024-02-06-071533.png

the glitch is also random

[quaint stream]

Why is the Tier 1b X so much bigger than the others in the tfee picture

[carmine trench]

two or three different glitch patterns

[vague flume]

can you record it as video?

[carmine trench]

its in my first video posted up higher about the moon light

[vague flume]

can't understand if it's random or it has pattern

[carmine trench]

yeah, just an observation. Might be nothing

[vague flume]

we need more records

if it has loop and repeats after time - it's not random thing

[austere palm]

Lmao

Im starting to think Moon Madness is real after looking at the Moon for so long

the fact its a full moon on every map is interesting

[earnest wagon]

I suspect each map takes place on a specific date, decipherable from the moon and position of the stars.

I also suspect the current date is the same day as today.

[civic hornet]

hmm interesting

[austere palm]

I wouldn't doubt it from embark

[vague flume]

Yes, Embark, EAC was reeeeallly good idea

Just got TFLA0002 error, restarted the game and it's gone

[austere palm]

I got it when I had a crappy mouse

[shut sentinel]

what EAC

[vague flume]

just checked in game and saw non of glitching idk

[vague flume]

Easy Anti Cheat - EAC

[velvet narwhal]

Since the year is present in the name (Monaco 2014) and its always full moon there are only 12 possible dates

[earnest wagon]

Yup, I've been meaning to map out the possibilities for each map. I believe we can narrow it further.

[velvet narwhal]

But i also think the date changes, when for example it's the winter event and snow is on the map

[shut sentinel]

oh yea

[carmine trench]

Looks like this #easter-eggs message

[vague flume]

Yeah I saw it. Just haven't seen nothing like this when I played.

[carmine trench]

It's really hard to catch

[vague flume]

I assume it's just like decoration or smth like this

[carmine trench]

Yeah, same. As I mentioned before, just an observation.

Not sure if the moon videos up above helped out, but I'm thinking that it falls under the same thing. Just a visual thing.

Folding eggs is a form of cooking and one of the passwords previously used 3 or 3 i's for Roman numerals

[civic hornet]

Have we managed to map the stars to each map? Do we have a screenshot of each skybox?

[silk flax]

No way they tried to contact Rob in here 💀

[velvet narwhal]

We have a very high quality image of the night sky in vegas somewhere but i don't know if we have images of the other maps.

[earnest wagon]

Not yet I believe, there's plenty of images of Vegas floating about as we were actively looking for star-shaped clues there.

[fallen jasper]

Why 2014?

[velvet narwhal]

heres the image of the vegas sky (.jxr is a higher quality version of jpeg)

[alpine junco]

the map is called monaco 2014

[fallen jasper]

Oh duh, guess that makes sense then. Good call lol

[civic hornet]

https://in-the-sky.org/skymap2.php?year=2024&month=2&day=6&town=2993458

Can see night skys for specific times/dates/locations here

do we know which direction is which on each map? north south etc

never bothered to see if theres a compass in game. Sure we could figure it out

[hard current]

there’s a compass on your screen at the very top iirc

[velvet narwhal]

theres a compass at the top

[civic hornet]

lol never noticed

[turbid tinsel]

It's a close fit, but I'm undecided on it.

[civic hornet]

Vegas is 2072 right?

nvm its 2032

anyone got the screenshot of vegas skybox?

[solar sparrow]

has anyone on vegas tried taking the little lights and illuminating different areas? like graffiti or anything

[zenith fern]

U guys hacked the mainframe with the egg hunt! /s

[fast crescent]

I've went around the outher bounds of the map lighting everything up and I took the exact path as is shown on the sticker as well from the twitch drops, didnt see anything special

[rain comet]

tried it

[solar sparrow]

damn

[fervent nebula]

same here

[rain comet]

i got all of the steal the spotlight players to put every little spotlight on the podium

nothing happened

[fervent nebula]

later today ima have another look for like a good 2-3 hours see if i see anythingg i didint before

[mystic pecan]

that's a good idea though
very sneaky tbh

[fast crescent]

how did you manage to get all the players to not kill each other lol

[rain comet]

obv

[mystic pecan]

ask nicely? lol stupid

[rain comet]

just crouched till they stopped shooting

[fervent nebula]

i tried and a player threw a c4 on my light then killed me so:)

[rain comet]

and grabbed a light and started piling them on the podium, they followed me

[fast crescent]

I must have spend an hour waving at other players with the spotlight but it didn't stop a single one of them from killing me asap

[hard current]

hey guys pro tip: don’t rely on Rob to guide us step by step, keep using our brains;)

[civic hornet]

Can nyone screenshot this screenshot for me, cant open it on mac 😦#easter-eggs message

[fast crescent]

One other thing, I saw someone post a few days ago saying that bullets won't track outside of the arena of the map (because of performance reasons), but whenever I shoot my bullets out of the map I can see the bullet holes in the walls/windows/wherever. Which would imply that you can shoot at objects outside of the map, right?

[limpid yarrow]

welp my plans of exploring the map some more are fucked

loading screen hell

[velvet narwhal]

kinda sad that mac can't open jxr images

[solar sparrow]

i hate having a mac after being a pc user in the past

I can probs download something to be able to but Im on my work laptop dont tell my manager

[solar sparrow]

gotta use wine for so many things it's dumb

here's the same image as jpeg #easter-eggs message (it will be worse quality since its not jxr)

[civic hornet]

thanks man

[silk bolt]

this😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[strong cloak]

running theory on this champ? cause im also aligned with 2 truths from 1 tier and then 3 truths from another cause rob eyed the png of the map that had 2 box then 3 box

[civic hornet]

#easter-eggs message theyve lsot faith in us and gone to reddit smh

[silk flax]

BRO I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME

[limpid yarrow]

nope everyone is having issues it seems

[silk flax]

Damn, was trying to level up one last time before I left for Vegas

[limpid yarrow]

servers be dying

mans going the irl easter hunt

[silk flax]

Never know 🤔

[strong cloak]

whats crazy to me is that it seems were no closer on the password than we were a few months ago

[limpid yarrow]

welcome to the club

[strong cloak]

still on gold, egg, latin as confirmeds and then space and summat else as maybe

[limpid yarrow]

we have more info but other ees have popped up such as the lore vid and holtow change

[paper scroll]

Think embark would give us a hint if I get a holtow tattoo irl?

[solar sparrow]

Rob said he expected this one to be solved summer of last year, shouldn't we stop looking for new clues in game?

[civic hornet]

we know we have everything to complete in but not whether weve found everything to solve it

[strong cloak]

the way he spoke about it makes me think its something real simple

tiers 1a-f were meant to be harder than tiers 2abc 2edf which when lookin at the passwords make sense

two running themes - egg and gold. replace g's with 6's and then change the 6's to vi for roman numeral value of 6 yielding evivi and viold

rob said tier 3 was supposed to be even easier than that, just take the five common themes, mush em together and hey presto right

[vague flume]

Seek beyond walls

Dev's literally told us to go and touch some grass💀

[severe zealot]

what are the 5 commen themes then?

[queen hornet]

this is what we should be focusing on

[strong cloak]

so far we have confirmed latin egg and gold

[strong cloak]

facts, i feel like back in july someone was super close in chat

astronomy/space is a theme im willing to put money on

[queen hornet]

padlet said space was eyed?

unfortunately i haven’t been here very long so im not sure what happened in all of the puzzles

[worn flame]

Gold. Egg. Latin. Space.

[rain comet]

i guess the answer is sol

[strong cloak]

ah yep space is eyed according to padlet

i cant seem to find the evidence in the google doc link but im probably being blind

[rain comet]

Sol is sun in latin

[queen hornet]

worth trying!

[hearty meteor]

sol badguy

[turbid tinsel]

@pure loom are you on? ive made a link

[worn flame]

lol. Not sol. 😭

[wheat portal]

anny developments on the gold from yesterday

[strong cloak]

[worn flame]

Although, that is interesting.
Sunny Side Up - egg
Golden Rays of sun - gold
Sol - Latin
Sun - space/ astrology

[wheat portal]

you culd see the yoke as gold

in an egg

[unkempt dune]

Here's the thing though, why would LIGO be a space hint if the password is related to the sun (hypothetically)

[worn flame]

The sun is a star and stars have been hints. Idk haha

[strong cloak]

regarding this: i feel like it makes logical sense for the top right branch to feed into abc as it comes first and then the bottom right to feed into edf. If we follow this using the 4 themes we have confirmed, using process of elimination we should be able to narrow down which set (either abc or edf) the final theme comes from right?

[limpid yarrow]

also we keep going down rabbit holes of new ees which probs dosent help but we do love the content so we do go down the holes a dew times

[rain comet]

TO BE OR NOT TO BE, THAT IS THE QUESTION

[queen hornet]

ideally those rabbit holes would take place in the respective threads but that’s hard with new people

[iron wedge]

we get far when we forget of the other secondary EE tbh

[limpid yarrow]

yeah but they cant msg in them

[strong cloak]

a 1064 = melting point of gold
b lxxix = 79 = atomic number for gold in roman numerals
c 5f137s2 = electron config for mendelevium but also has 137s which is the golden ratio

[iron wedge]

btw, what did I miss? , seem like we went far while I was asleep

[limpid yarrow]

it would be cool to have a seprate server but i dout embark one to manage another one

[strong cloak]

so abc is gold no question

[limpid yarrow]

yes

[turbid tinsel]

i went down this hole a long time ago back when looking into c64 but i think it may be relevant now

[strong cloak]

could be latin if you take the roman numerals to heart but im not too sure

[limpid yarrow]

each section meaning something has already been confirmed

[rain comet]

beauty is in the eye of the beholder

[turbid tinsel]

we got a nama image holding a mirror that would let us see that

The axe in this picture is very similar to the axe in the cards nama threw

[strong cloak]

def clearly egg and latin imo

[unkempt dune]

1337.33 K can also be considered the melting point of gold. I say this because the first discovered pulsar has a rotation of 1.3373 s (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_B1919%2B21)

[limpid yarrow]

is there any numbers we have yet to link to anything that we have found

[strong cloak]

so either shoehorn space in there with edf and hunt the final theme with the golds abc or space is in golds abc and final theme is in edf

[severe zealot]

nanatama is the mascot name right?

[strong cloak]

namatama

[worn flame]

Latin is involved with both. Idk if we would shoehorn anything in as they can share.

[turbid tinsel]

I think we have to spell behold

[strong cloak]

@worn flame off of this tho? you dont think the themes are split 3 and 2? you reckon all the themes are prevalent throughout all images?

[limpid yarrow]

op?

[worn flame]

Maybe. But the pattern so far has been shared. Like in the passwords from Doggo. Rob said to combine the passwords and you have your answer. (Let me confirm that real quick)

[limpid yarrow]

i think space also shared themes across things

[turbid tinsel]

the axe in this looks very similar to the card nama threw in the video

[civic hornet]

Dont mean to take us down another rabbit hole but has the Voyager Golden Record been investigated?

[limpid yarrow]

but there is also a few things we havent figured out or found cosidering the roman empirior one was gave to us cos we didnt find how to find it the original way

[limpid yarrow]

mhm was more so woundering why you think we need to spell out behold

[iron wedge]

gotita check that one so the rest can focus on what we have for granted

[limpid yarrow]

i think we already looked at that

[rain comet]

WAITTTT
The entire thing looks like a hamlet

[queen hornet]

a hamlet?

[limpid yarrow]

the best way to check is to search in the chnnal spercifically

[rain comet]

Hamlet act 1 has 5 scens
act 2 has 2 scenes
and act 3 has 4 scenes

[limpid yarrow]

can you draw out what you mean next to it

[rain comet]

T3 had 2 question marks at the beginning

Hamlet ACT 3 scene 1 has the famous quote "to be or not the be, that is the question"

[limpid yarrow]

rob said something about combining hamlet with some other stuff i think

[civic hornet]

how does hamlet relate to eggs, space and gold?

[brazen drift]

He has

[brazen drift]

I think we looked at this at some point

[brazen drift]

Latin is also a common theme

[iron wedge]

someone with the page can do trial and error with stuff we know so far

[civic hornet]

I just assumed Hamlet would relate to Latin in some way but the others seem more seperated

[limpid yarrow]

this msg #easter-eggs message

[brazen drift]

There’s also been hamlet and Ophelia connected

[queen hornet]

#easter-eggs message

[brazen drift]

Thank you

We have 4 truths afaik

Latin, space, gold, and egg.
Missing one

[worn flame]

coming in clutch with the links today

[worn flame]

Connection to hamlet could be death?

[brazen drift]

Death might be a good one to look into before

I had a theory that it was the start of life awhile ago. Why not the inverse?

I come back later. Good luck hunters

[limpid yarrow]

glad to have helped imma play some finals before having to do uni work so see you later guys and have fun going down the holes of curiocity

[civic hornet]

Death is the "mirror" of birth

[brazen drift]

Mirrors are also something to look into

Connie to to mirror is good,

[turbid tinsel]

I finally found what was in the nama mirror

[civic hornet]

Hamlet is based on a Norse legend composed by Saxo Grammaticus in Latin around 1200 AD.

[sharp glacier]

What's in it?

[turbid tinsel]

parts of this image

[civic hornet]

? Can you show us?

[turbid tinsel]

gimme a few, i need to go grab an energy drink

[wheat portal]

isnt death related to the philosopher's stone

[turbid tinsel]

im also pretty sure parts of this image were used in other official arts as well but dont quote me yet

[solar sparrow]

the h is missing in through, and a d replaces the e in combine, so "he"? helium? some important male figure?

or d = e?

maybe replacing the letter e with d is important somewhere?

[paper scroll]

Just watched spears newest video. It's awesome

[worn flame]

Was there anything else needed form that besides the date?

[nocturne marten]

Sorry for the wall of text.
Brief run down of Hamlet and Ophelia's relationship for the group. Hamlet and Ophelia are engaged, until he accidentally kills her father Polonius (Polonium connection maybe?) Afterwards Hamlet pretends he never loved Ophelia, to try and spare her that she has lost her happy marriage, and instead has dodged a bullet with him. Doesn't work, she goes crazy and unalives herself.

There's themes there of hidden truths trying to protect someone, but ends up being detrimental. Ophelia is also a Greek name meaning "help" or "aid."

[rain comet]

ama go and try to assemble dem pictures like a puzzle

[urban pond]

have we found the rabbits?

[worn flame]

Let us know if yu need help or have leads

[hearty meteor]

#easter-eggs message
was this ever expanded upon or solved?

[worn flame]

wasn't eyed so maybe not so maybe not related?

[unkempt dune]

is it a coincidence that Ophelia from Hamlet mentions Saint Valentine's day?

[worn flame]

Its been eyed by Rob but i think for another EE (Roses)

[unkempt dune]

he eye'd that his CCLXIX hint could be the year 269, which is the year st. valentine died

but it was not said that the hint was for the roses in the practice range

[rain comet]

some sort of code or no?

[limpid yarrow]

i think its binary and cant remeber what people said it was

[rain comet]

this part looks like some sort of picture from the gaming

[worn flame]

I believe it’s confirmed that those hints are for the roses/Valentine’s Day.

[unkempt dune]

I don't see anything that would lead one to believe this

[lofty temple]

When does Rob stop by with a hint? We all over the place lol.

[daring grove]

I don't think we are getting hints anymore as we are on tier 3. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

[civic hornet]

I think we should focus on Hamlet and the 5 truths

[limpid yarrow]

he gives us hint still just not as often i think he vives them more to the other ees

[turbid tinsel]

The V looking shape here fits in the slot for it on the mirror no? or am i just crazy?

[unique spruce]

klee means clover. golden clover: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trifolium_aureum

[lofty temple]

I don't see it unfortunately

[umbral shell]

Yesterday when looking at the mirror I found “RGD” on the back

[limpid yarrow]

wait code the emprior nma relate to the guy who made a mirror house

[umbral shell]

Also I think the last truth is either love or death

[worn flame]

#1203859365610922036 message

[iron wedge]

death is involved on most of the other clues we got

[civic hornet]

what are the links to death?

[worn flame]

Everyone has died...

[unkempt dune]

that quote from rob is in relation to the roses

[iron wedge]

even the goose that laid the golden egg got killed

[umbral shell]

Indeed

[unkempt dune]

some people think the 269 hint is related to the roses in the firing range, but like I said, there's no confirmation what the 269 hint was for

[umbral shell]

I also say love because of Tristan & Iseult

But Tristan & iseult, as well as Hamlet also died

[worn flame]

cclxix = 269 = Valentine's Death = Valentine's Day = Roses which was the EE we were talking about in that thread.

[restive compass]

Yea i think we are still missing the "theme" of shakespeare

[iron wedge]

we can do stuff related to the roses when we crack Tier 3,rn we need all our focus into this

[umbral shell]

Fate is another option as a theme

[unkempt dune]

That's a deduction though (which are not always correct), not a confirmation, is what I'm getting at. It has not been confirmed that the hint was for the roses.

[worn flame]

Also DEATH by Rhodent? Seems to fit the theme of death

[umbral shell]

Accurate!

[restive compass]

agreed

[iron wedge]

you are right, we are leaving rhodent away from the table on this

[civic hornet]

Death does seem like the correct 5th truth

[restive compass]

i was thinking fate, or time

"Shakespeare's works have strong themes that run through each piece. And again, these themes are still relevant today – love, death, ambition, power, fate, free will, just to name a few. So Shakespeare's works are timeless and universal. That also makes them relatable."

[civic hornet]

Supernovas are deaths of stars

[umbral shell]

Same, time is also an option

[restive compass]

also that Death by Rhodents poster was a potential clue

[crystal salmon]

Things related to Death by Rhodent: Sweden, Midas, Death, Rhodium...

[civic hornet]

Plague

[umbral shell]

So now the question is how does the 5th truth (if we go with death) relate to the password?

[civic hornet]

Plague seems like the obious take away from Death by Rhodent right?

[umbral shell]

Facts

[iron wedge]

Black plague

[limpid yarrow]

death by rodant is a band

[restive compass]

shakespeare was in that era too

[valid lichen]

Oh kind of off topic but the announcers mention aesop and the hare and tortoise story in one of the team got a cashout announcements

[civic hornet]

Im not sure we even know how the first 4 relate, I think we need confirmation som how of the 5th truth and th rest will fall into place

[umbral shell]

Got you

[restive compass]

could it have something to do with infinity? have we seen any similar signs to infinity signs?

[civic hornet]

I do think its interesting how little relation on the surface level the first 4 truths have

[restive compass]

have we looked into the Golden Age?

[umbral shell]

That could be promising

[iron wedge]

what if we find a relation between the 4 truths?

[hard current]

… question, when you are all looking for things, are you taking into account

northern lights
pulsars/binary stars
nobel prize/winners
gold medals
ab ovo paul klee
?

these are all related to the most recent eyed messages and clues from rob

[civic hornet]

maybe it will help but i jsut think confirming the 4th will make it obvious

[restive compass]

well we kind of have already. Can someone tier out the padlet tree to see what might be our primary clues?

[iron wedge]

there has to be something that conect all 4 (and possibly the 5th)

[unique spruce]

i think we need to start shooting up the outer perimeter walls in different arenas. there may be breakable spots

[civic hornet]

yes, these all relate to the known 4 truths

any of these could lead us to the password but I think the inclusion of the 5th truth will bring these clues together

[restive compass]

I am very leaning towards "dawn" being potentially the password just a different word for it

golden dawn. northern lights occur at dawn....etc dawn of technology

dawn of spoken word - latin

[umbral shell]

Try it out fam

[restive compass]

latin for dawn is "aurora".....

you eat eggs at dawn

[iron wedge]

we need someone with the password Page to test stuff and confirm if it works or not

[iron wedge]

Aurora borealis, northen lights

we went full circle it seems

[umbral shell]

There’s a attempted password thread so make sure you enter it there when you do try it

[restive compass]

okay here are some potentials for yall. My work pc wont let me access password.

dawn = aurora (latin)
aka -> diluculum, oriens (other names for dawn)

and oriens is the sun-god supposedly so that might be it too idk

[hasty anvil]

Rob look here, save yourself

[iron wedge]

also dawn can represent something New, the start of a New Day, New beginning

[hasty anvil]

Post main, summarised connections, wiki pages, that kind of stuff here. Try to keep conversations out of it. It will allow Rob to check stuff much easier.

[opaque thistle]

Speaking of the themes of shakespeare I believe it could be a link to the stories of Andromeda and Cepheus, King Arthur and Gweneviere, Tristan and iseult, aphrodite and Adonis, and hades and persephone

[iron wedge]

I feel rob silencie May mean

either we havent done good progress (likely)

we are Just one step away of connecting everything and a hint May be too much

[civic hornet]

Or he could. be busy

[restive compass]

is there a way to link dawn to hamlet or other shakespearean works?

[nocturne marten]

There's a group known as the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn?

[iron wedge]

I don't know, it's a peculiar typo in the name too.

[hallow pilot]

Look up Golden Dawn Rose Cross

[hard current]

hinting at Rhodium

[crystal salmon]

Exactly

[restive compass]

ALSO rob left an "h" out of through in the 5 truths message

and said "combind" instead of combine

[solar sparrow]

he is helium

maybe a connection between helium and rhodium

[civic hornet]

white gold is typically plated with rhodium

[hallow pilot]

Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn was founded in 1887, also the Medium shotgun model.

[umbral shell]

Nice catch

[urban pond]

the only thing that i think they have in common is that they end in "um"💀

and the electrons that they have i guess

[hard current]

yttrium and rhodium guys, make sure you’re looking at the past stuff in here

[solar sparrow]

both are silver which is kinda the opposite of gold?

[dry ginkgo]

Although most people think white gold is a shiny white metal, that color is actually from the rhodium metal plating that is applied to all white gold jewelry. Without the rhodium coating, white gold might be gray, dull brown, or even pale pink.

[civic hornet]

So researching the Golden Dawn I came across this.

[restive compass]

i think we are drifting again

[civic hornet]

The first symbol is this

[solar sparrow]

oh shit

[restive compass]

clairvoyance that may have meaning. Shakespeare often made the story very easy to se what was coming.

[restive compass]

[civic hornet]

The egg symbol in the golden dawn means space

[umbral shell]

Good shit fam

[solar sparrow]

"The element Rhodium was discovered by H. Wollaston in year 1804 in United Kingdom. Rhodium derived its name from the Greek rhodos, meaning 'rose coloured'."

rose colored makes me think of rose gold

underscore as space?

[restive compass]

no just numbers/letters i believe

[hallow pilot]

Regarding the Rose Cross:

[civic hornet]

Following on from Akasha, there are Indian universe birth theories about a Golden Egg

[restive compass]

also dont forget that LIGO was hinted into numbers so if any of those letters are in it they might be replaced with 555, 4, 444, etc

[umbral shell]

LIGO 17

Rebirth maybe instead of death as a 5 truth?

[opaque thistle]

This also links directly to king midas with Tristan and iseult and midas' stories being directly linked. And they all share an overarching tie to both dragons and the themes shown in hamlet. King arthurs family's name is pendragon, Andromeda is the forerunner to medieval princess and dragon stories, and in Tristan and iseult mark of Cornwell killed a dragon prior to the story taking place. But it also has me wondering about midas and if this whole series of connections is more to the rose clues with how in midas' garden one of the first things he turns to gold is the roses in his garden...

[nocturne marten]

We talked about the cosmic egg previously!

[restive compass]

that egg has been entered last night as a password

[nocturne marten]

It's spiritual explanation for "the big bang"

[nocturne sphinx]

yeah already tried Hiranyagarbha and other related

[fallen jasper]

Egg?

[restive compass]

I still think that thats it we just have to replace letters

[dry ginkgo]

what variations?

that still does not cross with latin in any way...

[restive compass]

maybe leave out an "h" and or replace G and O with the LIGO values

[nocturne sphinx]

brahman, brahmana, hiranyagarbhasukta

[hard current]

cosmic egg has been talked about here extensively months ago… not saying it’s not worth it to look but it never got eyed or anything, also does not relate to our newest clues surrounding northern light, gravity, pulsars, nobel prize winners, etc

[nocturne sphinx]

Also, the finnish mythology, "In the Kalevala, the Finnish national epic, there is a myth of the world being created from the fragments of an egg laid by a goldeneye on the knee of Ilmatar, goddess of the air" ties into northern lights, but right no latin

[dry ginkgo]

yeah, the latin cosmic names fit better. indian names feel off

[worn flame]

Was northern lights eyed? I may have missed that.

[umbral shell]

Honestly don’t think the password will be egg related as the last one was vit3llus or Vitellus which is Latin for yolk

[nocturne sphinx]

" One egg's lower half transformed
And became the earth below,
And its upper half transmuted
And became the sky above;
From the yolk the sun was made,
Light of day to shine upon us;
From the white the moon was formed,
Light of night to gleam above us;
All the colored brighter bits
Rose to be the stars of heaven
And the darker crumbs changed into
Clouds and cloudlets in the sky." the finnish poem

[dry ginkgo]

I like everthing surrouding the drago constellation. its in the game, dragons are from eggs, there are golden dragons. something near, I guess...

[opaque thistle]

Golden dragons

[nocturne marten]

Maybe the Draco Star bundle has some clues?

Can you expand on the origin of this poem? It seems to contain many of the previous clues

It looks like the alchemical symbol for tin?

I remember them finding clues on it way earlier

[opaque thistle]

Wait fr that could be huge

[dry ginkgo]

is there a count of people involved in solving the hunt? I'm just surprised - either the hunt is not popular enough, or what? internet hivemind should be able to solve anything. especially when posted on imageboards.

[crystal salmon]

I'm not convinced tbh

yeahh I'm not either honestly

[nocturne marten]

After looking at it for a beat, idk if I am either honestly

[crystal salmon]

Are we actually sure there's not more surrounding S lies?

[iron wedge]

not more than the assumption that scotty is indeed lying, the real question is

lying about what?

[pastel kelp]

Could be Sophia lying also

[velvet narwhal]

maybe that the hacks in THE FINALS are just 'glitches'

[dry ginkgo]

ofc she does, its AI generated. that's an AI stamp to make up things.

[faint merlin]

Yo

[crystal salmon]

I was thinking more... physically. #easter-eggs message

[pastel kelp]

Sophia the CEO of OPSUZE

[umbral shell]

Don’t know if typo or not, but literary instead of literally

[crystal salmon]

Yeah I've been hung up on that too.

[opaque thistle]

Rhotacism

[queen hornet]

definitely not a typo, it’s rob we’re talking about

[umbral shell]

So def on the walls

[opaque thistle]

It's a direct example of a Rhotacism and spells just like Rhodium I know it's not coincidence ong

[umbral shell]

So maybe there’s some graffiti that has relation to some literary that were aware of

[velvet narwhal]

Well the walls in THE FINALS aren't literarily dead since there's graffity/words on it. (I hope literarily is a real word and i didn't just make it up)

[restive compass]

LITERARY DEVICE?

oops mb all caps

[umbral shell]

Literally I think you mean

[umbral shell]

Possibly a literary device or could be a reference to some story that were not thinking about

[velvet narwhal]

no i mean the adverb of literature

[crystal salmon]

I'm thinking there's either some kind of poetic graffiti type stuff, or something to do with literature. Like a graffiti on a library wall type thing

[restive compass]

well hamlet has literary devices out the butt

[umbral shell]

Okay following now

[restive compass]

think about the "to be or not to be" soliloquy

[civic hornet]

Where is the idea of literary over literally come from?

[umbral shell]

Rob message from the 2/03

Someone linked it a couple messages ago

[restive compass]

to be or not to be, that is the "ques-tion"

so what is the answer to that? may be the answer to the password

I wanna learn more about the connections to perseus though, we have some direct references in game with the winged shoes that you get from levelling dashes, and the light has invisibility which someone told me could refer to hades helm that perseus also had. I'm fucking certain that these mythological stories with perseus and andromeda and hades matter theres just so many connections to them I know it has to be important but I don't see anything conclusive. It led us to Ursa major and Tantalum/Tantalus atleast but I wanna carry out the thought process into mythology more and see what it connects to aside from spacecrafts

if u scramble it, you get isles as in multiple islands🤷🏽‍♂️

[opaque thistle]

it does look a lot like that but it also looks almost like spread around on it and goopy in some places. If it's not just a coincidence and it's actually a chemical or something I mean..

[crystal salmon]

The way Scotty talks in the video though. It's extremely suspicious

[opaque thistle]

Yeahh true, scotty does say some strange stuff for sure..

and if you listen to his dialouge late intowards STS matches it does start to get into some territory I haven't heard before almost like he's sounding uneasy

But he keeps just talking about the match, it seems like it changes a little though

[nocturne marten]

Ophelia is themed after the black swan right? Ab Ovo refers to the story of Leda, who disguised herself as a swan to lay Twin Eggs. I truly apologize if this idea has been shared before

Has anyone tried listening to the phone emote yet? I heard the name Sarah on it and. "S Lies"

So it could just be sponcers wanting your attention. Or there could be something related to it?

[opaque thistle]

waiitt another feast.. and it's another story of a king being killed

[alpine junco]

it's the origin of "writings on the wall"

[latent pasture]

O h ?

[opaque thistle]

[nocturne marten]

Ab ovo, the Swan, is there something on Ophelia in the practice range?

[latent pasture]

E y e s

[alpine junco]

"From the story the idiom "to be able to read the writing on the wall" came to mean being able to see from available evidence that doom or failure is inevitable, and "the writing on the wall" itself can mean anything portending such doom or failure."

[opaque thistle]

Ophelia's mannequin is there

[nocturne marten]

Right, but I mean on her mannequin

Sorry, I'm away from my compy or I'd look myself

[velvet narwhal]

Have we ever checked the tunnels in Monaco? A "writing on the wall" can also be a cave painting

Wait I just remembered somethhing, when I looked at her in a reflection I saw her flames in the reflection then they disappeared in the reflection but stayed on her mannequin

Like twin eggs, binary stars, and all our other hints towards duality

[opaque thistle]

plus only odelia and another character being married are the only two instances of dresses like that which are pretty damn similar. Maybe the one in white disguised herself and became Odelia, the Trickster?

[hard forge]

remember: 2 threads and 5 truths

[nocturne marten]

Is the last truth duality?

Something along those lines maybe?

[dry ginkgo]

2 in white, 3 in gold...

Rob eyed a message about starting in the practice range, let me pull up the link

[restive compass]

yea link that message pls imma check it out later

[hard forge]

Rob also said that we have everything before the game even launched. And OYE (open your eyes)

5 truths. we have to combine them. And there is a pattern.

[hallow pilot]

Ok, so I remember seeing that someone followed the twitch drop map to a room with a spotlight. I also remember seeing that someone ended up in a room with a blank wall with what looked like a poster frame with about the same dimensions as the free-standing Nama egg signs scattered around the Vegas map. Keeping that in mind, if you take that light and shine it on the wall, does it reveal anything? I mean, the event is called 'Steal the Spotlight'; "the writing's on the wall"; "Seek the signs"

[nocturne marten]

#easter-eggs message

[dry ginkgo]

already ran around the whole LV with spotlight literally. But its never enough.

[restive compass]

he actually says "combind"

[hard forge]

the context is:

• Rob said that Tier 3 is "walk in the park"

[hallow pilot]

"lovers" in the park?

[dry ginkgo]

i also noticed when you free roam after being killed in "steal the spotlight" - around a high building at the tip near the level "wall" some music plays - was in inspected? Like reach the top of the level with free roam... There is also a building with Argon written on it. Might be something also.

[silent plover]

Which is rooted in combine+bind

[queen hornet]

could this be a hint at how to actually put the truths together?

[iron wedge]

maps with parks

Mónaco,skyway arena

[silent plover]

Which could, once again, be linking us to the birth of gold via neutron binding

[hallow pilot]

Isn't the name of the statue in the park on Monaco 'Invitation'?

[dry ginkgo]

park: trees, grass, benches, generator, lamp-poles, roses

[opaque thistle]

ayo can someone help me figure out what the FUck is up with this coraline ass bs I'm lookin at right now

[crystal salmon]

Practice range as well

[dry ginkgo]

there is a heavy in the container in the park also lol

[hard forge]

This will take forever if we keep on guessing the password. There is a logical pattern to follow. We have already tried 4000+ passwords as of today.

I also suspect that level 3 is already active and we might be mixing clues from both the levels.

Rob thought the hunters would solve the Level 2 in summer of 2023.

[queen hornet]

u talking about that weird light reflecting off the tablet near the end?

[dry ginkgo]

then we need a clear definition when the clues ended - but I guess not all were discovered back then?

[opaque thistle]

yah

[turbid tinsel]

i still fee like the password is related to the word behold

[worn flame]

Could just be the levels main light source. in 3D software they can show up in reflections as simple orbs.

[iron wedge]

im kinda thinking, we are thinking about mixing Words like a password, but what if its actually a sentence

[unkempt arrow]

And brute forcing is against the rules, right?

[opaque thistle]

WAIT THE UNDERSIDE OF THE BENCH, THE BENCH'S LEGS LOOK LIKE A SYMBOL

[hard forge]

Yes I guess we only found 50%(more likely lower) of the clues. And judging by the vvv image i guess it's safe to assume that clues from announcements, patch notes, official art are most likely related to lvl2.

I am doubtful of what we find in-game. It could be related to Lvl 2 / 3 or the final level.

[dry ginkgo]

its against, but again - its the internet. Can't believe nobody did. And they did not succeed. So that means the password is not on the wordlists.

[valid lichen]

Alright we need to lock in then

[hard forge]

yes. but these passwords were tried by different individuals what they could be the password.

here is the list of all the password attempts

#1175206999802249307 message

[valid lichen]

isnt that just what benches look like or am i tripping?

[restive compass]

Like they said above, I think all this periodic table talk may be lvl3

[restive compass]

so far there are many elements in play here. gold, medelevium, rhodium, caco3, etc

[hallow pilot]

Bench, please 🤣

[hard forge]

the periodic table was used since t1 C - it was also shared by rob in January 2023

[dry ginkgo]

or its just a generic bench 😆 https://kappa.lol/fp-CO

[crystal salmon]

Do we have a list or something that tells us when each clue potentially was put in the game? to try and avoid level 3 stuff

[opaque thistle]

facts but like we have also been on the topic of alchemy and rob did say a walk in the park

[stark arch]

can i just ask, where are you guys trying the diffrent passwords?

[valid lichen]

Good point

[hard forge]

This makes me wonder if Rob is not "eyeing" correct clues which are related to lvl 3

[crystal salmon]

Ah fair point, it's probably fine

[opaque thistle]

plus like it's right where the roses are found, and he literally takes off the little center dot to make it look even more like the exact symbol yk?

Also, the roses on this outfit are the only thing that isn't alive/warm...

strange

[valid lichen]

Weird

[iron wedge]

im gonna search stuff in Mónaco parks (because Mónaco has like 3)

[hard forge]

also keep an eye out for 3 headed monkey

first one to find it gets an embark mousepad

[hearty meteor]

im guessing that the flowers arent part of the player model that you would find on a skin and are added as a separate model, which removes the isWarm flag (pseudocode to make the idea clear)

[dry ginkgo]

its inverted though. roses are as alive as skin.

[opaque thistle]

yeah true

[opaque thistle]

that's what I had thought but w/all the references to alive and dead things and how much he wants us poking around in the range I think it would be intentional between the way they're on and off.

[opaque thistle]

speaking of monaco I've been interested in the little lights placed around the map, for one, one of the rubbish bins in the parks has the top of it replaced with a light

normally it can't break off if you look at the one in the park on the practice range or anywhere else, but there it's replaced with a light

and the same light can be found in strange places like in the fountain

[hard forge]

Also folk, at this time this chat is relatively less chaotic. So you all have an opportunity to work together and make REAL progress!

[opaque thistle]

Yes but our brains are still as smooth as always 😭

[nocturne marten]

Bro, we ain't smooth brained. We're egg heads

[worn flame]

One thing we HAVE to remember is that Rob has said, and we keep going back to, that we have everything at this point we need to solve it. We really need to crack the patterns with these images and how they intertwine

[opaque thistle]

polish flag maybe? In the range

[gloomy anvil]

Monaco flag, because it's a Monaco building

[half flame]

I'm egging out

[opaque thistle]

ah

hadn't seen the monaco flag before makes sense

[solar sparrow]

so we should be looking for clues in practice range right?

[hasty anvil]

We’ve torn apart the PR, glitched out of bounds and found nothing. It’s some kind of interaction I think

[half flame]

The 555

[hearty meteor]

we found the friends we made along the way

quite literally

[dry ginkgo]

what do you expect from the interaction though? I don't believe in "jumping as a heavy from the rock concert" thingy, whey you can hide so much stuff in the lore material.

[alpine junco]

CAN WE MAKE IT CLEAR THAT EVERY THING ON MONACO IS BASED OFF THE COUNTRY THAT ALREADY EXISTS IN REAL LIFE

[crystal salmon]

Monaco's not a real country

[gloomy anvil]

https://tenor.com/view/bart-simpson-the-simpsons-distorted-face-windy-gif-8463726

[alpine junco]

ok sorry city-state

[hasty anvil]

For example, we had an idea using an emote in the park or something. Maybe killing certain dummies in an order/speed. That kind of thing

[alpine junco]

guys does this mean anything?

[dry ginkgo]

still feels to complex to program something like this into the game. I don't expect a sudden cutscene in these types of EE.

[paper scroll]

Me walking into EE chat on lunch

[hasty light]

Oh wow I didn't know it was actually based off of the actual cathedral

[gloomy anvil]

In BF4 you had to shoot at a specific parrot perched on a specific tree at a specific time after shooting a specific light (and more) to activate the megaladon. Rob has also confirmed that you can "activate" EEs in The FInals.

[crystal salmon]

impressive

[alpine junco]

THEY MADE IT IN REAL LIFE?

[paper scroll]

They confirmed that the roses in practice range had no big or further significance?

[hasty anvil]

Not a cutscene maybe, it was in reference to ‘a friend we need’ and the park, and ‘light a candle’ were the main clues, so maybe a namafama would appear

[crystal salmon]

That's where the next clue is

[worn flame]

Not to the main EE Hunt

[gloomy anvil]

They are significant to an EE, just not T3

[opaque thistle]

look at what's missing/different?

[paper scroll]

Shit they even got the trees right

[opaque thistle]

this reflection looks like an arrow

[opaque thistle]

facts

[hearty meteor]

i can tell you with confidence that there is nothing behind that wall

[solar sparrow]

but Rob said "megalodon was many years ago, imagine what we can do now"

[paper scroll]

Low key wish embarked commissioned writers to write short story's about the sponsors in game like how riot games used to make short stories
