Eulers identity is about dividing the unit circle into TWO. Cracking our egg.

hard forge
turbid tinsel
#

probably a +4

#

but the question is where is it being applied, evivi or egg?

#

if that is the case

vital oar
turbid tinsel
#

+1-2+3-4

#

i think thats the formula

#

unless its supposed to be the -1 thats been pretty consistent

#

which would be the formula backwards

#

or something

#

but i dont know where the starting point is

quaint wing
#

viold/evivi does give you 5 to work with

solid jay
#

O Y E = 0 Y I?

quaint wing
#

I tried that for passwords, but I also used +2-3+4-5

vital oar
#

Is OYE related to T3 or diamond?

turbid tinsel
#

so is viold/evivi the starting point or 0yE

loud stream
#

e^pi*i=-1 or e^theta*i=cos(theta)+isin(theta)

#

But like it was probably a typo

dull marsh
#

Note that we have had both OYE and 0y3 (zero y three)

so chuck peddle headed the design of the 6502 series. the c64 uses a modified version of the 6502, the 6510 which rob gave as a hint

He is - when he was working on the Commodore PET, one of the people on his team was one of the designers of the PETSCII graphic characters

#

The commodore PET is a backronyme

#

Personal Electronic Transactor

#

It means they thought about calling it PET before finding the meaning of each letter

#

At Commodore, Peddle convinced Jack Tramiel that calculators were a dead-end and that Commodore should explore the burgeoning microcomputer market instead
Chuck Peddle was the reason Commodore went toward personal computers

Complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS, pronounced "sea-moss", /siːmɑːs/, /-ɒs/) is a type of metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) fabrication process that uses complementary and symmetrical pairs of p-type and n-type MOSFETs for logic functions.

#

All I'm reading here it metal-oxide

#

Makes me think a lot about gold for some reason

#

The MOSFET (metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor, or MOS transistor) was invented by Mohamed M. Atalla and Dawon Kahng at Bell Labs in 1959.

wait chuck peddle developed MOS, and also developed the 650x family of processors, used by apple, atari, commodore pet, and the related processors in the same family were also used in the c64

Hey guys I think im onto something new in the practice range. In the tutorial, and ONLY the tutorial, the 2nd dummy from the back of the shooting range has a pink health bar. If you hit it with a rose, damage it, then finish it off with a rose, it makes the dummy behind it have a pink health bar. Only under those exact condition does it make the second dummies health bar turn pink

#

I was going to do the same to the second dummy and my wife kicked me off the tv

#

Someone’s gotta carry the torch and move forward with this

dull marsh

#

Yup. Give me a moment.

I killed the pink health dummy with all 5 roses and nothing happened, was a pain in the butt with how easy the roses break, had to keep redoing the tutorial lol. I also tried getting the pink dummy low and finishing it with a rose, and again nothing. Only if you do it exactly how I explained above, rose>damage>rose, does the next one turn pink

Here's a bit about the man who made it (https://ohiostate.pressbooks.pub/graphicshistory/chapter/3-1-work-continues-at-mit):

Ivan Sutherland, acknowledged by many to be the “grandfather” of interactive computer graphics and graphical user interfaces, worked on his PhD in Electrical Engineering in the Lincoln Labs on their TX-2 computer. Sutherland learned to program in high school using a small relay computer called SIMON

#

@unborn pilot Speaking of 15, you might get a kick out of this:

SIMON was a relay-based computer with six words of two bit memory. Its 12 bits of memory permitted SIMON to add up to 15. Sutherland’s first big computer program was to make SIMON divide. To make division possible, he added a conditional stop to SIMON’s instruction set. This program was a great accomplishment, it was the longest program ever written for SIMON, a total of eight pages of paper tape.

i dont think we had any Commodore PET clues, seems like somebody just found a random commodore keyboard from wiki when googled petscii

#

however we have commodore c64 clues...

stiff comet
#

Maybe pore over the credits screen while you're on the train of thought.

#

I know I sound like a broken record but it's proven to belie more information than we think.

It seems to be just dev thanks.

Anything besides the first few frames may be outside our range of investigation (?).

#easter-eggs message
So we believe the gif above to be Petscii symbols.

These are the unicode numbers for those symbols

U+256D = Tier 1D ╭
U+256E = Tier 1E ╮
U+256F = Tier 1F ╯
U+2570 = ??? ╰

1F appears as the odd man out?

stiff comet
#

1F...🤔

#

Wait why is out of place?

#

For grandma.

solid jay
#

╭╮
╰ ╯
they also (obviously) form an egg shape

stiff comet
#

ah

#

Wait.

#

Looks like the drippy bit on Nama Tama?

#

Or am I insane.

fresh quiver
#

Byte referred to the PET, Apple II and Tandy TRS-80 collectively as the "1977 trinity".

eternal violet
solid jay
#

so if those collectively form an egg
what can we do to get the gold half of the password

solid jay
#

just curious that it isn't consistent on here

stiff comet
#

Suppose it would be too simple if we just tossed the number 256 in the password bar.

stiff comet
#

Bollocks.

solid jay
#

the password we believe is combination of gold + egg

stiff comet
#

Gold, AU, Australia, Aussie...

solid jay
#

I see you are new here, you should really check out the new hunters guide #easter-eggs message
and read the wiki over a few times

why do you interest with this i dont get it

#

i couldnt extract anything

timid solstice
#

new approach is interesting

snow walrus
#

yea i started to think more Commodore-centric

fresh quiver
#

gold in ascii, egg in petscii, then translating it to ascii?

stiff comet
#

Race ya there.

solar glade
snow walrus
#

also extended ascii has common characters

fresh quiver
stiff comet
#

What about it.

#

🫢 nvm

fresh quiver
#

the bars/lines in the bottom right corner.

stiff comet
#

Doesn't look like much of anything to me...

timid solstice
#

yeah they were being referred to as clock hands I think

turbid sorrel

Where are those lines even found in the image?

12:15 isn't a particularly exciting time.

fresh quiver
#

yep but its possible that we could write that in petscii. just a random thought

snow walrus
stiff comet
#

I'll leave it to the pros, I dunno how to write in petscii or what that means.

fresh quiver
#

dont worry. never heard of petscii aswell until yesterday.

stiff comet
#

Though this certainly doesn't seem like a usual schizo trail, this seems promising.

THE FINALS

In early September 2022, after the Gamescom teaser trailer for THE FINALS was released (late August 2022), a series of related cryptic Easter egg clues started to be presented through concept art released via THE FINALS Twitter account. Several additional clues to help the community solve the puzzles were also posted exclusively on THE FINALS Di...

can this be linked to petscii?

We still need to look at the bigger picture.

How will everything link to viold evivi?

Good point.

#

No bloody clue.

hard forge
#

We have everything but we are still blind 🥲

stiff comet
#

All keys, no locks.

snow walrus
#

okay this is true im sure

stiff comet
#

Theoretically you could turn the lines into letters?

#

Or is that not helpful.

snow walrus
#

how so

stiff comet
#

Like reassemble the letters with the lines.

#

Yeah that's a stupid idea...there wouldn't be any sixes in it anyways.

solid jay
stiff comet
#

Hmmmm!

plucky kettle
#

could be used else where to have the line to be G and the O to be a corner in the top left maybe?

#

as the g's are both the same

#

so it could be code to be used elsewhere

stiff comet
#

Are you saying reassembling the letters wouldn't be complete hogwash?

plucky kettle
#

no, I am saying that maybe elsewhere in another image/glitch thing maybe that the letters and lines could mean something

stiff comet
#

Aha.

plucky kettle
#

all the g's are the same line underneath

#

and the o etc

stiff comet
#

That's an idea.

#

But where could it go?

plucky kettle
#

do you get what I mean? also if its complete nonsense tell me

plucky kettle

There was a golden Nama trinket as an alpha reward. Have anyone tried to check it's texture or the way it looks like?

And NT pictures are meant to lead us in the right direction.

Couldn't find it at a cursory glance.

or the shapes

yeah, sorta just the shapes in general

not in particular? at least not presently? we are just looking for ways to manipulate Petscii

Well, this was fruitful.

I'll see you all in the morning, I'm leaving this chat for now.

just got back in here again and scrolled through what i missed. Just to recap what happened, as the chat was a bit overloaded:
GIF from Rob is pescii --> each letter corresponds to a symbol on the C64 --> we wrote GoldenEgg with the Symbols and also now IJKU which we got from Robs gif

Did i miss something?

Rob mentioned (i think quite recently?) X marks the spot

and X was quite important in the previous Tiers

that was the nama tama ceasar

we went full circle

probably not relevant but just noticed the + and - are opposite

before post this. So it should be about values, unicode etc..

so GOLD + EGG would actually be GOLD - EGG at least in this editor

Not sure if this has been discussed but 666 has popped up already. You can only get 666 if you write egggolden and swap the g's with 6 like in the previous tier. Has someone made this connection?

#

It also fits with OYE. Egg is on the left side instead of the right like, like the Tiers are displayed on the website

hasty anvil
vital oar
#

Just some brainstorming before we go back to pescii
egggold
e = 3 (OYE/OY3 & mirroring of E again)
ggg = 666
O = 0? No clue tbh
E = roman for 50
L = roman for 500

So these glitches... Once all found, they're expected to form a shape, or we're expecting more to appear, and they're just a random event teasing S2?

Each of those glitch locations have some significance

runic furnace

Definitely

dull gorge

could align with constellations

runic furnace
#

I think I'll try to stack the glitches together next they seem like they make pictures

placid belfry
#

Maybe it’s the location of a change that’ll come to each map in S2?

fallen jasper
#

Ooo good speculation

#

Perhaps CNS modifies the maps for some purpose

placid belfry
#

Since they have to compete like the most recent “broadcast” said

fallen jasper
#

So we may not just get a new map but all maps changes

placid belfry
#

that would fit and be a really cool way of breathing some life back into them outside of the timed events.

Any Progress?

solid jay

this sort of speculation belongs in off topic not in EE chat

psssssst Rob, in the tutorial there are two dummies in the back of the big range that have different health bars. We can't consistently make the dummy health bars pink or blue and were wondering if that's an oversight somewhere, or if it's actually part of the rose EE!

solid jay
quaint wing
#

You can sonar, you can shoot them, but there's no rhyme or reason to it happening, and it only works in the tutorial.

#

I was speedrunning to get there to sonar them, shoot them, taking my time, and nothing was consistent. Sometimes one had a blue bar, a pink bar, or sometimes both had pink bars. Once killed, they were back to red.

fallow agate
fallow agate
quaint wing
#

It's only two dummies. If they were both red, I'd sonar the whole arena and nothing else would have another colour 😦

#

But out of all the runs I did, I got double pink once, a blue bar on the first one, then multiple with nothing special.

#

Hopefully someone smarter gets on it and can figure it out and we're not just chasing ghosts of EE past
