Why idk

I think H5-17-8A-BX is a 4 letter word and the . here indicates a separator then another letter with PF. I had something from it but never finished.

H5 17 8A BX 6S PF
72+53 49+55 56+65 66+88 54+83 80+70
125 104 121 154 137 150

[tardy drum]

I think half the EE group does that actively with any new posts

[spring thistle]

Ohh

Ok.

👍

[tardy drum]

Ohhh you mean update dates, got it. Dope, keep us in the loop

[fair charm]

Is it possible to use the platform during the platform moving mode to "jump" from space to space on the sys horizon map with the blocks and pulsating blocks?

[spring thistle]

Is there a platform mode in sys?

[low escarp]

sys has power shift yes

[spring thistle]

Oh yeah right

[spring thistle]

[spice lark]

Is there a thread for the bells on the intro screen of monaco?

[spice lark]

I wonder if when rob gives hints of waves he's talking about Bell Curves

[untold tusk]

So the generator in the practice range does it always turn back on after hitting it? Sorry if it’s a newb question new to the Easter eggs

[opal pond]

It turns on once and then when its hit again turns off forever iirc

[untold tusk]

Ok Ty!

[fresh spruce]

They also have a module named "Curiouser". Could be references to Alice in Wonderland, which also has White Rabbit. No clue why the naming is related to Alice in particural though, it's just what Google gave me.
"Usually used as part of the phrase curiouser and curiouser or a variation thereof; most commonly as a reference to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland."

[untold tusk]

So I noticed in the store the hazard duty bundle has more of an animation to it then the others and looks like fire so I went to practice range and grabbed the flamethrower and started messing with the big guy and if your careful enough you can get him glitched out while the rest of the wall isn’t. Idk Still messing around with it

[cold heart]

no there isnt... but @unkempt dune brought it up again recently, personally never heard it though sorry

there might be something to it

[untold tusk]

found something interesting under the coin café awning, there's a little square box that moves with you when looking up moving right to left and it also gets brighter moving right to left

[cold heart]

can you send me a picture, so i can post it for you here? not sure what youre refering to exactly

[untold tusk]

sent

[cold heart]

oh huh - interesting 🤔

[untold tusk]

indeed!

[dusk veldt]

STIGGSOON

[untold tusk]

Tried a bunch of stuff to possible get it brighter by adding goo but didn’t work I’m wondering if it can be knocked off the wall then use a anti gravity cube to bring it closer to the sky

[drowsy storm]

I did notice after destroying the building a few times that this awning will occasionally stay floating in the air even after the surrounding walls are destroyed

thought nothing of it at the time but perhaps it has some kind of unique properties

saying that having looked at this in game it does just seem to be the lighting

[untold tusk]

Was that weird controller rumbling happening on the run that the awing remained floating?

[drowsy storm]

im on pc

but I've just tried this a few times its repeatable quite easily just using the sledge

[untold tusk]

Right on I’ll have to go in a try it out before I get off tonight

[drowsy storm]

is this menu unique to the practise range?

the light is directly above it maybe its a marker to indicate its significant?

could be the three stages of the egg?

[dusk veldt]

I dont believe so, I think its also outside the Cafe on Monaco

[drowsy storm]

has anyone translated it?

[dusk veldt]

I wish the three stages included dessert, but alas Rob doesnt love us enough

[untold tusk]

found a couple more interesting things in the practice range lol by the big screen theres 4 dots the reflect on the ground 3 silver one gold, the gold one is directly infront of the heavy. The other is on the left side going to the shooting dummies on the ground theres a heart that moves just like the awning and leads to the dummy that doesnt have a weapon. im guessing you bring the flowers there

[drowsy storm]

do you have a screenshot?

[untold tusk]

Yes I do! But I don’t think I can post pics yet

[drowsy storm]

can u dm to me i will post here

[untold tusk]

sent

[drowsy storm]

where are they on the screen?

[untold tusk]

sorry its on the ground not the screen

[pure loom]

This could be the same as in-game - if you look at puddles, for instance, you'll often see a light source reflected from above which is not visible if you just look up. This might be something to do with the way Unreal deals with light sources, rather than something hidden.

[drowsy storm]

yeah there are lots of instances like this though it is odd to see one golden dot and its interesting that there is a hear shape

the gold dot appears to come from the reflection of the screen also

[untold tusk]

Yeah the heart on ground is super interesting. Gunna throw some flowers on it see what happens

[dusk veldt]

RE from Minerva: duration 02:47 = building numbers in SYS?
#1243224234675802135 message

Work Space - 4
Library - 0
Museum - 7
Art Gallery - 2

From Atsuhiro:

You know it is possible that 0 2 4 7 is significant for the dolphin charm. When rob talked about a potential breakthrough a while back, those numbers were indeed mentioned within the timeframe he spoke about:

rob: I thought you were going to make a big breakthrough in one of the channels 7-8 days ago, but then people went down a different rabbit hole… ._. #1201288968562552863 message

7 days before he said that, 0 2 4 7 was momentarily mentioned: #easter-eggs message

**Potential lead for the charm👆 **

[spring thistle]

Is it even possible to jump between the pads on the right without touching the ground

[silk bolt]

no

[spring thistle]

Maybe if there's a M pad in the middle

[silk bolt]

maybe with alligned other jump pads from medium but light dash alone can't do it

[spring thistle]

Yeah that's what I was thinking

The seek the truth wave the text file might be alluding towards using M jump pads to connect with the larger pads

The smaller could also be hinting to bunny hopping between jumps

[mystic storm]

Was this in relation to the charm? ; on the website it says we connected the date 92295 to the movie se7ven?
#easter-eggs message

[neon raptor]

With low gravity and dash it’s possible but it’s been done already and nothing has come from it.

Edit: (Just looked at the picture above) with only those 4 jump pads it’s not possible, during power shift there is a 5th pad in between gallery and museum that make all the jumps possible

[dusk veldt]

Unsure of whats it connected to, but the numbers connect to the release date of the movie se7en(which is why the connection was made)

[low escarp]

if i remember corectly it was a hint for 7 ppl to activate the dolphins

[dusk veldt]

Ah, right!

[austere palm]

Did we ever figure out where sys was actually located people were saying so where In Italy did that go anywhere?

[dusk veldt]

Still it is interesting, if it is related to something within or just outside these buildings. Still dont how someone could do it solo and as a light? It cant be due to the match's time limit

[dusk veldt]

Spear had a very interesting video where the devs shared some early concept art etc, and there have been alot of connections found to different museums etc in America

[proud minnow]

I don’t think so, hehe

[sharp flame]

SINGPORE. I will continue believing that. Mainly because I lived there and want it to be true..

[dusk veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-no-planet-of-the-apes-gif-4887024567657918299

[atomic rock]

Toronto, I don’t live there but some of the views are similar and when the rainbow flys up in the sky it looks like the CN tower kinda

Also Toronto public library kinda similar design in the interior

[hasty anvil]

I would Discount Asia as we have Kyoto and Seoul, 1 Europe, 1 NA...

[austere palm]

Couldn't find a thread about sys horizon

We need rainbolt on this

[solar glade]

ah yes. the Horizon dilemma

[unkempt dune]

I still think sys is somewhere in Australia

just because of The Matrix

[alpine junco]

Horizon system

[sharp flame]

Where is SYS$HORIZON set?

[sharp flame]

I feel like out of all people you would know the most..

(not only from the interview, but especially because of your expertise in the matter)

[velvet narwhal]

I feel like he already knows but doesn't want to tell us...

[cold heart]

I really thought we already had a thread for this ngl, but i guess not

[velvet narwhal]

I think we used the Sys$horizon findings thread

[sharp flame]

we had a Sys-horizon dolphin thread, and general EE thread

[sharp flame]

I'm gonna ask them to rename the Sys thread

[daring bluff]

aren’t we just straight up not supposed to know where it is yet

[sharp flame]

there are bound to be clues

but it's not supposed to be obvious

I think you can still figure it out

[daring bluff]

perhaps

[cold heart]

Yeah there is probably enough to try and figure it out

Its obviously not 1-to-1 though (ignoring the glitches).. like how Kyoto isnt 1-to-1, same for Seoul and Monaco

But we know its something

[daring bluff]

either way i think something is cooking related to horizon- the fact that
a) sys$horizon’s location is supposed to be a puzzle
b) we know there were additions (map variants) to horizon planned in the past
c) it hasn’t shown up in WT yet…
d) we haven’t gotten a lore drop in a while…

something is definitely brewing, what has CNS been up to

[spring thistle]

I just want the other variants of kyoto

[cold heart]

yeah same 🤔 i wonder if its seasonal with IRL Kyoto

similar to how we had snowy Monaco over winter

[spring thistle]

Sounds plausible

[sharp flame]

i mean. just ping for this type of requests 😂 then everything is doable 😄

[cold heart]

@sharp flame shouldnt #1250090941356838952 also be renamed then

[fresh quiver]

[solar glade]

the team didn’t reveal anything during the interview, and i also asked them not to even if they wanted to. secondly, i really haven’t spent time looking into it. don’t know why it hasn’t particularly interested me but i could

[sharp flame]

don't worry it isn't a priority

it's probably something we can look back on and go "ahh that makes sense"

like the Koi patterns in Vegas

[tardy drum]

IIRC, SYS originally was a map in the clouds. Instead of the water it was clouds(?) like skyscrapers high up.

[solar glade]

not really, the concept was similar to Seoul/Skyway Stadium

[sharp flame]

yeah, the pits between the locations were not indicative of any location

like the dioramas in Skyway Stadium

[tardy drum]

Ahhhh got it

[gloomy anvil]

are we expected to work it out by ourselves at some point? or is it intentionally too ambiguous for that?

[valid lichen]

*cough cough

[neon raptor]

xX_TF_CNS_CeratopSID_06_Xx (ceratop skeleton in the museum)
xX_TF_CNS_FloatingBits_Mp3_Xx (this one is obvious, floating bits all around the map)
xX_TF_CNS_FreeDoom_Ver07_24bit_Wav_Xx (0724 are the numbers on the buildings and the song is 2:47 long) (The Freedoom project aims to provide all the content needed to form a complete, entirely free/libre game for the Doom engine -impervious)
xX_TF_CNS_MegaUltraHeavy_DeleteThiz_Xx (still unsure but the large footprint in the museum might be related)
xX_TF_CNS_SpaceCube50_mstrd_wav_Xx (large cube in art gallery)
xX_TF_CNS_SyntaxCNS_PWM_Stere0_Xx (PWM is an audio technology -ultra)
xX_TF_CNS_WAREz_FinalVer2b_24bit_Wav_ (Warez means pirated games or other software - burrito)

All of season 2s soundtrack is about SYS but I don’t think anybody has found the meaning in all the song titles yet. Could possibly help us find something new about SYS.
Also 3 of the songs are labeled as waveform audio files, one of them is suspiciously lowercase

[cold heart]

*woolly mammoth skeleton

[neon raptor]

Are we sure it’s a mammoth?

[tired python]

what about with lo grav

[cold heart]

We know exactly which one infact - yes

[neon raptor]

Are all the bones related to the mammoth or just the ribs?

[tired python]

when does MegaUltraHeavy play? is it loading or menu? I don't remember hearing it ever

[cold heart]

#easter-eggs message
#easter-eggs message

3D model - https://legacy.3d.si.edu/tour/woolly-mammoth

the skull, ribs, and shoulder blades are all from this

[neon raptor]

Dang😂 I’ve thought it was a ceratops for weeks. That’s what I get for joining the EE hunts late

[cold heart]

there is always stuff to learn 😀 its p interesting tbh

[neon raptor]

Unsure honestly

I wonder how a ceratop comes in play then if it’s not a skeleton. A relatively unpopular dinosaur doesn’t seem random

[tired python]

Nama Tama is a ceratopsid egg 😂

Welp I got timed out for trying to send a link to a website

anyways apparently PWM is an audio technology ]

could it be relted to the stereo in xX_TF_CNS_SyntaxCNS_PWM_Stere0_Xx? seems odd that two audio technology terms are in the same filename

https://www.adam-audio.com/en/technology/pwm/

[steady plume]

Guys, I found out I live right next to the museum that holds the Mammoth skeleton from SYS.HORIZON, should I bring a The Finals sticker and leave it?

[cold heart]

maybe Rob has already covered Washington DC in Embark stickers 🤔

[silk bolt]

need a specific event to make it happen, also after the second jump pad there will be no momentum movement to go to the third ig

[silk bolt]

actually i would have done that😂

[fresh spruce]

This, and 0 2 4 7 triggered something in my head. S3 credits had the hint "missing discs". So I went looking for older games with multiple discs, namely C64. Now, C64 didn't have discs, but my Google Results offered me this beauty, with "Good old 8-Bit games #9".
https://ka-plus.pl/en/store/GO8BG-9-p569683979
https://d2j6dbq0eux0bg.cloudfront.net/images/28643373/3721984389.jpg

Now, this wouldn't be anything relevant, really, BUT, few days ago I was looking into the gif on holtow.com, going through the frames, and the only thing that was "noticable" in those frames, apart from "WE ARE CNS", of course, was this frame, with "",8,1
https://i.postimg.cc/DzqGqMpL/0027.jpg

And, so, I noticed this writing on the floppy disc
https://i.postimg.cc/J4vHSL9j/image.png

What comes out of it, no idea, I suppose LOAD "*",8,1 was something that triggers a menu, or something else, on the C64...

edit: here's a thread that explains what LOAD does, and 8,1 seems to be pretty surely related to C64 https://www.lemon64.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=45823

edit 2: I guess this has been found already 😅

Why I thought this was relevant - Rob said that the first hint for the charm was already posted weeks before S2 release...

[spring thistle]

WAREZ mean pirated games

Or other software

The credits movie's style was inspired by mid 2000s pirated software installers

[neon raptor]

The only things I can find for mstrd that isn’t mustard is Myanmar Scientific and Technological Research Department or Multi-Unit Space Transport and Recovery (last one fits the space theme?)

[spring thistle]

Also consider that cns is a hacking group, they're probably familiar with/using warez software

[steady plume]

Is SYS.HORIZON a real location?

[spring thistle]

No

[steady plume]

Bummer

Would have been fun to find

[dusk veldt]

We have a thread where we investigated the WAREZ scene and its connections to the hunthttps://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1247320886646804550

[spring thistle]

Here's an example of a warez software installer. Note how similar it looks to the s2 credits movie

[neon raptor]

Hold up - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BAC_Mustard

Led me to black knight ballistic missile program, weren’t we looking for black knight?

[dusk veldt]

yep, its inspired from these demo intros #easter-eggs message

[spring thistle]

Nah that one is too modern. The one I posted more closely matches the credits

[proud minnow]

haha YES ofc there is a hidden meaning here, you know me by now… everything we do, we try to hide something fun, add a nod or shoutout, an ee etc… ._.

[dusk veldt]

we found the old one too, Its somewhere in the thread

[spring thistle]

Rob is a fan of pirated software confirmed

[tranquil minnow]

I know Kyoto was obviously based off actual Japanese architecture, however this little short really looked identical to in game https://youtube.com/shorts/ux3Nz6ulbyo?si=lQSN8ppquq69a7gA

The Nomura Samurai Family Residence is actually really interesting. It's a tourist location in Japan of an ancient Samurai family with striking architecture

[fresh quiver]

it was renamed to be in line with other map threads

Would Lvl 3 password maybe be related to numbers?

[untold tusk]

Found some new stuff messing around with that awning in the practice range after destroying the area around the awning I picked up the flower pot next to the menu sign , brought it to the giant, placed it once the gold reflection was right in front of him then moved it to the second location where there’s the 4 light reflecting on the ground and placed the plant on the gold one as reference to jacks bean stalk. Now the menu that’s next to the plant is some sort of mirror.

I have screen shots can’t post pics unfortunately

[pure loom]

you can dm them to me if you like, and I'll post them on your behalf

[untold tusk]

Absolutely friend! Give me a sec and the first pic doesn’t have the plant there unfortunately as I forgot to record so I just circled with red

[faint flower]

Dm me I’ll post them for you

[untold tusk]

sent to @pure loom

[pure loom]

got it!

[untold tusk]

awesome!

[mystic storm]

please share!

[pure loom]

ok, here's the sign image from @untold tusk - I think this is just showing the generic "damaged surface" texture on it from the wall having been destroyed next to it, rather than it being some kind of mirror. Some objects show that even though they're not made of concrete/brick/plaster

here's the pot on the ground

and the ground in front of the billboard

@untold tusk do you think any of the other images show anything extra?

Unrelated, but @shadow shore and I spotted this odd lighting artifact on Skyway a day or two ago

[untold tusk]

Not really I tried looking up at the light fixture mark but it’s reflecting from somewhere else then my reticle gunna try to move around the building more smash some walls. From the pics I sent it seem like there’s a radius inside the shadow of the building Gunna fuck around some more in a sec

[pure loom]

yeah, maybe capture a short vid if you do think it looks strange

[untold tusk]

For sure man! hilariously, I was In the moment and never recorded it and once I snapped pics I was thinking what the fuck Leth lmao

Shits so damn fun man can’t believe iv been playing since open beta and never got into the Easter eggs till 2 weeks ago

I also forgot if your playing on controller I did experience that random vibration around when I picked up the plant

[steady plume]

Appreciate

[pure loom]

This is @untold tusk's video of the menu sign in the practice range. I'm pretty sure this is just showing the common damage texture on it - the platforms on Kyoto show the same thing when they smash through the Red Panels building with the water courtyard.

[cold heart]

yeah this happens in a lot of places now - textures seem to have a habit of "bleeding" way more than they used to... especially the destruction effects

[untold tusk]

Yeah just tried without moving plant. Oh well the hunt continues lol

[spring thistle]

The recent amplification of debris decals seems very intentional. Done to enhance the destruction feeling. It does have the drawback of decals sliding around moving props

[hard forge]

(bookmark)

[drowsy storm]

Didn’t even make the connection of the billboard showing a giant before haha

[junior thicket]

[spring thistle]

GTA VC had that

Adding more to this.

• CeratopSID - Dino nod (we are getting Dino nods since very very long time) Ceratopsidae: All but one species are known from western North America so...SYS could be from western NA. SID Sound Interface Device (the MOS Technology 6581 sound-generating chip used in some Commodore computers).
• FreeDoom - https://freedoom.github.io/ (The Freedoom project aims to provide all the content needed to form a complete, entirely free/libre game for the Doom engine)
• WAREz is a nod to some groups like RZR1911 and a shoutout to Embarkers and devs in gaming industry. (iNSANE right?)

Also 3 of the songs are labelled as waveform audio files, one of them is suspiciously lowercase
Like the Dolphins maybe.

i think there could be more to it.

Mega Ultra Heavy, HUM backwards which parts of the map do. but also could be another variation of Super-Heavy and possibly lean into superheavy isotopes

This is a really weak connection but I'd be remiss not to post it for the record

As Apollo was pondering about what kind of men he should recruit to serve him, he spotted a ship full of Cretan merchants or pirates. He took the form of a dolphin and sprang aboard the ship.

Ozone Theory

This is a deep hole yolks.

Ozone formula: O3

Ozone is mostly known for the ozone layer in the stratosphere which protect us against UltraViolet radiations.

• Namatama is falling in the high atmosphere (where the ozone layer is)
• The shield is protecting the egg (like the ozone layer protects us)
• Violet flower and UV were part of the hunt before
• Black lights produce UV light

We also know about the hole in the ozone layer, which is a pretty deep one if you ask me, Namatama may have jumped into this one.

• The hole in the ozone layer was discovered by satellites

White Rabbits

• Ozone's O3 structure was determined in 1865, year of publication of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
• Rabbits can see UV light

Dolphins

• 3 dolphins making circles... 3 O... O3
• Dolphins can get sunburns from UVs, it's suspected it might be caused by the hole in the ozone layer
• A dolphin is a cetacean, ozone is also called catena-trioxygen (CETACEAN and CATENA use the same letters)

• Dolphins live in liquid water and liquid ozone has a very similar color to our friends

3 Headed Monkey

• 3 heads of monkeys are like 3 molecules of oxygen in ozone
• OYE -> Ov3 -> O3 (like O^3 for exponent but as a subscript instead)
• Ozone has a short half-life of about 25h and quickly desintegrate
• When sunlight hits it, it accelerates the reaction and it desintegrate into O3 -> O + O2
• Ozone is a very powerful oxidizer which quickly alters a lot of stuff it interacts with
• Lightning in the air produces some ozone, Stormy Night might have been the Monaco ToD for 3HM and sun/UVs related the "astronomical event"

Cipher key
At the beginning we got the following text

14 XX 0176 XX 0002 XX
23 XXX 0176 XX 0002 XXX

Using the following ciphers:

• Letter of the alphabet N = 14 and W = 23
• Unicode U+0176 = °
• Unknown cipher 0002 = . (or ' or ,)

It looks like geographic coordinates

N XX° XX.XX
W XXX° XX.XXX

I think that we are not actually searching for any place, but that this is our cipher key.

So what are we looking for?

Today we've had a big clue: 19

Element 19 is Potassium or K.

So we have ., ° and K which all point to a temperature.

I've tried several combinations, the most interesting one being the triple point of ozone which is at 79.6±0.3°K. We've got 79 (gold), 6 (=G=vi), 0 and 3.

I think that we need to play with some temperature related to ozone and the cipher key we got above.

Filename letters speculation
Pics:
100_B (WR): William H Byler, invented the Black Light which emits UV-A
200_D (Dolphin): Dorno radiation is another name for UV-B
240_C (3HM): Sydney Chapman studied the ozone layer which stops all UV-C

Version Numbers img:
100_A (WR): Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
200_C (Dolphin): Cetacean/Catena, color
240_A (3HM): Atmosphere, air

Fun facts

• Ozone molecular weight is 48: O = 48 = 0
• 0002 reversed gives 2000 which in hex is 0x7D0 and in unicode U+07D0 = ߐ
• Ozone can be used to significantly increase egg's shelf life, thus protecting our little friends like an armor
• Christian Friedrich Schönbein discovered and named "ozone", studied and was buried in Basel, city related to Euler
• Sydney Chapman studied at Trinity College
• Trioxygene O3 is part of calcium carbonate CaCO3
• People going on the moon received A LOT of UV radiations

Also just noticed the namatama helmet has 19 rivets visible

[hard forge]

Interesting theory again Ludo. 🔥

[spring thistle]

God damn, ludonope with the amazing theories again

[dusk veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/walter-white-let-him-cook-cook-cooking-breaking-bad-gif-27522167

[dull marsh]

Rob posted that picture in the #1243224234675802135 message thread, and birds see UVs

[cold heart]

this is pretty big imo, as in we should have seen it sooner.. n its importance

[dull marsh]

Also something that can link back to Apollo 12 is that it was struck by lightning when it lifted off, and that produces ozone

[pure loom]

great observation

[dull marsh]

Most of us probably counted them but didn't see any meaning in the number 19

[dull marsh]

Since all 3 images have some photography lens artifacts I found those "WR UV Filter" (WR = water repellent) https://www.sigma-imaging.fi/sigma-wr-uv-filter

Wolf-Rayet stars, often abbreviated WR stars emit most of their radiation as ultraviolet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf–Rayet_star

The first three Wolf–Rayet stars to be identified, coincidentally all with hot O-class companions
3 WR stars along with 3 O stars... O3?

[pure loom]

"This is SH2-308, in Canis Major, sometimes called the Dolphin Nebula, a large cosmic bubble blown from a huge Wolf-Rayet star in the center of the dolphin which is likely to go supernova in the future. The star has ejected material which creates the very faint ionized oxygen blue green bubble."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sh2-308

[tardy drum]

Amazing theory and findings @dull marsh

If this is what Rob considers an “obvious connection” I must be very dumb haha

[dull marsh]

I mean it's only obvious once you start connecting hehe

[unkempt dune]

#1220636359153291284 message

[tardy drum]

Any chance this is related to 3HM?

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

[dull marsh]

Possible, gotta dig tho

[tardy drum]

Now much about ozone and stuff, but some mention of cosmic rays.. and it’s initialed as “3H”

[unkempt dune]

there's also three dents on the helmet on the left side

3 and 19 come right from the helmet

[pure loom]

yeah, I just been wondering about hydrogen-3 - maybe we can find some link between the dolphin head nebula and it

this feels like a good path

[unkempt dune]

but if we have 3 from the dents on the left, 19 from the rivets, would this be the sun?

[tardy drum]

3HM vanish into thin air? It’s a stretch haha but relating to your atmosphere/air theory

[dull marsh]

I mean sunlight desintegrate ozone molecules, so it's not too far of an analogy for it to disappear as soon as we see it imo 🤔

[unkempt dune]

I mean, he's a bit similar, but I'm not sure if it is him

(John Thomas Smith from today https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Thomas_Smith_(engraver))

[dull marsh]

Another link to 1865, Carl Dorno which gave its name to Dorno radiations (UV-B) was born in 1865

Dorno received the Leibniz Medal in 1919 and an honorary doctorate from the** University of Basel** in 1922
Another one in Basel

[pure loom]

with mirrors being mentioned about the 3HMs, maybe with need to look for something that's M Hydrogen-3

although tritium can be abbreviated as 3H

(superscript 3)

[dull marsh]

Related to ozone the 3HM might spell "THUNDER" #1211002564015824906 message

[unkempt dune]

kind of interesting how that line in the most #official-art lines up with the coordinate idea I was thinking of earlier this month #1220636359153291284 message

(I'm doing 0-175 for even numbers instead of 0-180)

partially off by 5 degrees with how I'm counting, but you can see it ends at almost 100 degrees west

and we do have W XXX

which would imply a number greater than 100

it's interesting that the line has a thickness in this case though

[dull marsh]

Oh also relating to the Black Knight satellite, whenever a satellite burns up in the atmosphere it contributes to the ozone depletion

[unkempt dune]

there is a possibility that this is a satellite or a meteor burning

with an X to the left of it

like it's landing onto a planet or something

from space

[vale igloo]

has this always been in skyway?

never noticed it before

[unkempt dune]

yes

[vale igloo]

just felt super out of place, maybe because of the lighting

[unkempt dune]

the width of the bar/line is 82 pixels

82 (Dec) -> R (Char)

and some people have seen it as 83, so that'd be 83 (Dec) -> S (Char)

it'd be really funny if it is supposed to be SR

[drowsy storm]

does anyone have this effect when new vaults are spawning in the practice range?

I've never seen it before now and looking at old footage in my files and on yt doesnt seem like anyone else has

even if it is a play on words, which it obviously is, it can still be a clue

we know love is related to the hunt

the Quick Draw skin has アップロード (upload)

looks like typical scratches all around

[cold heart]

also....

028

which is different numbers in the same style from the Hazard Duty skin.. and yesturdays #official-art

Such a cool idea for a skin. I dont think ive ever seen something like that in other games

[snow walrus]

More context: #easter-eggs message

I might just be going insane but if you zoom in on the scratches on the mask you can make out a lot of letters pretty clearly like a J and a H

yeah it’s the torch

[dull marsh]

The sky being blue before sunrise and after sunset is in part due to ozone layer, else it would be more grey/green-ish

[dusk veldt]

the new sticker is referring to the YMF 292 sound chip https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaha_YMF292

[eternal violet]

probably just to tie the plate number to burrw, also it does look kinda close the other diagonal string

[oak mason]

Snoop Dogg will run with the olympic flame. Snoop Dogg skin confirmed :v

[tranquil minnow]

Can anyone link me to the trailer with the vehicles shown in it?

[unkempt dune]

the new shotgun skin is based on this #easter-eggs message

if that's what you're looking for

[tranquil minnow]

Yeah, that or that vespa shown in one of the trailers. What trailer was it?

[unkempt dune]

It wasn't in any of the trailers to my knowledge

you're talking about this though https://fxtwitter.com/EmbarkStudios/status/1457998271641686023

[tranquil minnow]

Really? I recall seeing a vespa go through that alley in monoco? In a trailer

[tranquil minnow]

Yeah it's this one. Thanks Atsuhiro

Wonder if this means the possibility is back on the table. Even is it's just in a LTM

[weary edge]

Guys check the frame from the video in the updates thing

When the camera gets punched

I wanna know if there’s anything there

I’m on phone so it’s kinda hard for me to check

Anyone know what TAC,S means

[dusk veldt]

Im 99% sure its a nod to the Car, Saab etc

[pure loom]

The Vespa is a different colour and had Monaco plates

i wanna share this in here too.

[blazing nexus]

in seoul and skyway stadium on the corners of each parts of the map, there are strange orange glowing camera things, any idea what it is?

[hard forge]

IO

[snow walrus]

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

[dull marsh]

Iodine Monoxide IO is produced in small quantities at the marine boundary layer by macroalga such as seaweed or through the oxidation of molecular iodine, produced by the reaction of gaseous ozone and iodide present at the seasurface. Despite the small quantities produced (typically below ppt) they are thought to be powerful ozone depletion agents.

Also it's a purple gas which might relate to ultraviolets

[dull marsh]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Io_(mythology)

In the version of the story in which Zeus transformed Io, the deception failed, and Hera begged Zeus to give her the heifer as a present, which, having no reason to refuse, he did. Pitying the unfortunate girl, Gaia, the goddess of the earth, created the violet (Ancient Greek: ἴον, romanized: ion)

Given that we've had the Violet flower already in the hunt, having it directly linked to Io seems significant

[tranquil minnow]

How deep has this been read into?

[dull marsh]

Can most likely dig more, I just had a quick look at that article

[tranquil minnow]

Aight, gonna look into it then

Wrong chat for previous message mb

[hallow lake]

have all the 3hm been found?

[spring thistle]

Only 7 out of 9

But rob said that we'll be able to finish the level with just three

[hallow lake]

any 3 of them?

[spring thistle]

Just seven

Sorry

Had a brain fart lol

[hallow lake]

okay but do we know if its the 7 we have found already?

[spring thistle]

He said that it'll be harder if we find more than seven, and we don't know if we've found the original seven or not

[hallow lake]

okay so do we want to find all 9?

[spring thistle]

Well, we needed to find the original seven. The last two were extra. According to rob, the original seven will be used to help crack the code. We don't know out of the seven that we've found, which ones are the original. THere's no way of telling.

[hallow lake]

ah so we may need all 9?

any way I can help with the hunt? what are we looking into now?

im new here btw

[spring thistle]

Maybe. It could still be possible to do it with just the ones we've found. Plus if we do end up finding all of them, we still wouldn't be able to tell which of them are from the original seven.

[hallow lake]

true

[spring thistle]

Right now, we're looking into ways of combining the white rabbits, monkeys, and dolphins.

Rob said that they'll be linked in an obvious way.

[hallow lake]

hmm

alice in wonderland has a white rabbit, wizard of oz has the flying monkeys

has that been looked into?

[spring thistle]

I think so, yes.

[frigid pollen]

mr embark rob sir do you have bass guitar tabs for any of the s3 songs

[spring thistle]

The three headed monkeys are a reference to "Monkey island" the game

https://monkeyisland.fandom.com/wiki/Three_Headed_Monkey

[hallow lake]

thats confirmed?

[spring thistle]

No just looked into. Monkey island reference is confirmed

[hallow lake]

okay

just looking at the fandom for this but vaycaylians have dolphin tails https://monkeyisland.fandom.com/wiki/Vaycaylians

https://monkeyisland.fandom.com/wiki/Vaycaylians

sea of thieves has a monkey island quest, little out there but thought it should be mentioned

[dull marsh]

The 7 3HM we found are the ones we need, Rob said there are 9 right now but we don't need the other 2 to proceed

[hallow lake]

link?

[shrewd stirrup]

I just posted that. I think it's the construction area

[tranquil minnow]

Exactly. Was about to find you to say I saw you post abt it

Glad you found us first!

[tranquil minnow]

I can't find it xD. It is a charm right?

[cold heart]

https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1253697024839258253

dont think its construction.. something i and a few others looked into a while ago (before that thread was made)

but its a nice find regardless adding it to the list of cosmetics that reflection is found on!

[hallow lake]

any way I can help atm?

[blazing nexus]

on the reflections for the smoke-out mask, its the most clear it could be out of every reflective accessory in the game. the interior looks like an office building. and in the background of most maps like seoul or skyway stadium, there are similar windows to the reflections interior. and im pretty sure seoul and skyway stadiums have a few rooms that look like offices?

[shrewd stirrup]

I kinda felt like it. After the spoon it would be a little too easy

[blazing nexus]

the thing is with the finals lore, nobody is focusing on the background buildings in the distance where not even in death freecam could reach. if the S Lies text was hidden, what else could be? i mean i wouldnt be surprised if one of the audience members around the arena looked different from the others

and to add, where the hell did cns go. they put a bunch of easter eggs around the map and suddenly after the reset they completely dissapear. it cant just end like that or embark is gonna pull a fortnite where they completely end storyline with no explanation

[hallow lake]

the reflection looks like some sort of office, large window, desk and poster/painting thing

[blazing nexus]

yeah, and in the background on the smoke-out mask, you can see a filing cabinet, similar to an office

[hallow lake]

yea

i see something that looks like a closet or bookshelf or back of a chair (really cannot tell), 6 pane bay window ( i think thats what its called), some sort of circular thing as well

are there any mirrored objects in game that match the reflections?

has anyone looked into that?

if anyone is down for looking into that with me just ping

[cold heart]

@spring thistle GG 🎉 the Store Reflection has been found

[blazing nexus]

congratulations

[cold heart]

🧐 always helps to have fresh (and different experienced) eyes on these things

[blazing nexus]

ok this isnt about the reflections anymore, but any ideas on what the new vintage vengeance license plate means? it mentions tf24 and multico

[snow walrus]

Clap

[blazing nexus]

license plate is i99ti22

[blazing nexus]

what

[snow walrus]

was clapping for the Store Reflection

[blazing nexus]

yes we solved it i think

[snow walrus]

it is no EE(?) but Rob could be proud haha

[cold heart]

well you say that

so it was never told to us to be an EE directly... just something we had interest in since the Spoon/ Smoke-out mask

but Rob did say this one time it was brought up: #easter-eggs message

I'm just like you...I get happy and get sad...Just like you...I win battles and I lose them too...

which are lyrics to the song: "Piece of the Puzzle"

its neither of those... if you scrolled down a little futher you would have seen its here 😉

well you can. but I think we have all those numbers noted and probably discussed too. Will have to use the Discord search feature to find them.

[blazing nexus]

pretty sure we only have the gun numbers, and some cosmetics

@blazing nexus what are you on about... very much the right chat

wait but does ludo mean by wild pansy 😭

[blissful oyster]

I love that the Easter egg hunt has gotten so ridiculous and convuluted that yall provably just look insane to people like this guy

[blazing nexus]

i have been playing since closed beta 1 but i never was part of any easter eggs or lore based stuff, just enjoyed the game

[blazing nexus]

and yes you guys sometimes sound insane

[blissful oyster]

I like to lurk in here and get caught up so I know vaguely what's going on. But reading some dude go "the wild pansy Yada Yada HERB OF THE TRINITY" and not know what the fuck hes talking about is prolly really funny

[dull marsh]

Wild pansy

[blazing nexus]

how does this link with 3 headed monkeys or whatever the hell we are hunting for right now

or any easter egg

[dull marsh]

The violet (same genus, group of species) was already in the hunt previously and relating to ultraviolets

Now we also have IO which in greek mythology is related to violet flower

And all 3 EEs seem to relate to Ozone and ultraviolets

[cold heart]

Trinity has also come up a lot

[blazing nexus]

you sound like when my cat starts talking to me on 3 days no sleep and 0% sanity

i didnt understand a word from that

[velvet narwhal]

that's everyone in this chat

[dull marsh]

I've done way more unhinged theories than that, if you're not familiar with how the hunt works then it's normal hehe #egg-hunt-onboarding

[rugged breach]

To be fair, ludo does come up with some mega connections often, managed to snipe so much of rob's board in this thread https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1257779008536576011

[dull marsh]

I just like to connect dots :3

[hard forge]

that is interesting tho.
Is that in relation to your UV theory?

Does it mean Rule of three is linked to Trinity

[dull marsh]

We know that both violet and trinity are part of the hunt to some extent, it's just a potential connection

Also O3 does that 3 atoms so that would probably quickly connect to trinity too

[spice lark]

Unlikely but just throwing it out there... The building numbers of 0247 on Sys might represent alt code 0247 which is the division symbol. ÷

has to be. only thing i found out so far is that i99 means intersection 99 in pennsylvania, basically for cars, hence the license plate, and ti22 is naturally occuring titanium, hence the 22ti

but also might be what youre suggesting

[rugged breach]

👀

[snow walrus]

5 I and they do 👍✌️ which could be 1-2 or I-V

[dull marsh]

Ix5 -> 15
I-V -> 15
O = 15

It keeps all pointing towards oxygene and ozone

For context:
We found a weird texture in the tutorial. #1217870476664373288 message
Stigsson has tried multiple times to fix it.
It escalated so much until he decided to make a "stigis-bug spray" #1217870476664373288 message

[cold heart]

I think Rob was being genuine here... 👀

today: #1217870476664373288 message

Rob: (it’s done but I’ve not figured out how to unlock it yet hehe)

maybe the Stigis-bug spray is already in the game, but Rob doesnt know the solution - as opposed to the more "obvious" interpretation, of Rob meaning he hasnt figured a good way to unlock it (before implementing it)

2.5months ago: #1217870476664373288 message

Stigis: Now I just need to figure out how to make a stigis-bug spray to work as a spray, not a bug... Give me a few weeks 🙂

Stigis had shown interest in adding it himself a very long time ago, so maybe HE made an EE for it???
... we already have an EE that Midas has added

[dull marsh]

Rob OOO Rob, does this password contain spaces Rob?

[snow walrus]

space is ascii 32 :p

[tardy drum]

Lol it’s only 19 spaces and nothing more would be hilarious

[dull marsh]

I know but we knew that for Level 2 there would be no spaces, but we don't know if there can be spaces in Level 3 password 🤔

[tardy drum]

White rabbits? Not real. Figment of imagination. Empty. = Space
Dolphins? They disappeared in HHGTTG. They blinked into a different reality. Gone. = Space
Monkeys disappear. Gone. = Space
Lol

[dull marsh]

Space has always been a theme within the hunt tho

[snow walrus]

i've must missed the part he said no spaces

[tardy drum]

I’m completely stretching and joking

[dull marsh]

#easter-eggs message

No, I’m only use standard ASCII, actually to keep the password very easy to figure out, I’ve made sure to only use lower case letters and numbers, for this level that is… ._.

[unkempt dune]

#easter-eggs message

rob: No spaces in psw in this ee-hunt… ._.

[dull marsh]

Yeah but it sounds like he's been referring to Levels as individual ee-hunts

[unkempt dune]

this is one hunt

[dull marsh]

His wording in the other message strongly suggest that this won't be true for further levels

[unkempt dune]

the hunt for the big whoop

[dull marsh]

#1201288968562552863 message

The plan was that the Big EE-hunt outside the game would be done, and then move over to ingame EE's... ._.

He mentioned Level 1 and 2 as the Big EE-hunt outside the game

So not sure

[unkempt dune]

I wouldn't worry about spaces

unless rob says so

[dull marsh]

that's why I'm asking, I don't wanna have to bother about it unless it's relevant 😄

[unkempt dune]

real passwords can't have spaces though

[dull marsh]

That's not true tho, it's just not the norm but there is no reason why it wouldn't be valid

It's simple ASCII

[unkempt dune]

I think rob would have mentioned if this password broke convention

[dull marsh]

only use lower case letters and numbers, for this level that is…
Hard to make that wording any clearer to say that this convention only applied to level 2

[unkempt dune]

we aren't on a new level yet though 😏

[dull marsh]

We aren't on Level 2 anymore tho

Checkmate 😛

[hearty meteor]

more like stalemate

[cold heart]

almost all my pswds have spaces ehhe - but i agree, i think for now we can just assume its alphanumerics

[hearty meteor]

evil

[unkempt dune]

I think you're starting to see monkeys in the dirt again

going to coin that phrase

but if you're worried about the ending of that sentence, I personally wouldn't be

not yet at least

[dull marsh]

If you wanna quote me then quote me properly

starting to see monkeys in the puddles again

[unkempt dune]

it was dirt + water, but the monkey was formed by the dirt 🥹

[alpine junco]

did you know if you zoom into the headwear for anything u can hear ur contestant breathing like they got boogers in their nose?

[unkempt dune]

ayup

[velvet narwhal]

we are beginning to observe primates in the pools once more.

[dull marsh]

Hello, I see you're obviously new here, welcome to the hunt!
Have you heard of the roses you can pick in the Practice Range? Maybe that's an EE!

[hearty meteor]

[dusk veldt]

We have #egg-hunt-onboarding also!

[velvet narwhal]

Hey guys! I've found a qr code sticker which leads to holtow.com. Has anyone checked this yet?

[alpine junco]

damn okay

[hard forge]

Have you seen the blinking light on the Moon?

[alpine junco]

hey does the red light mean anything on seoul?

[dusk veldt]

Has anyone seen the blinking lights in Seoul? they might be important?

Why is nobody on this?!

[dull marsh]

I'm kidding hehe

[alpine junco]

i found this weird texture but cant send it

[dull marsh]

I just thought the breathing thing was common knowledge, my bad

[alpine junco]

i actually didnt know so

[neon raptor]

Not sure where you got with your ozone theory or your UV theory but if you’re looking for a connection (idk if you’ve said it or not, I’ve been jumping in and out of chats) UV rays are one of the ways that ozone is made, thunderstorms too a lot of time

[dull marsh]

Isn't it the opposite tho? Ozone is broken up into O2+O as it absorbs UVs

But yeah it's pretty central to my theory

[neon raptor]

Ozone is produced from UV light wavelengths between 100 and 240 nm.

UV light with wavelengths between 240–280 nanometers (nm) breaks down ozone molecules through photolysis.

[dull marsh]

Ah makes sense

Oh yeah ok so UV <240nm break up O2 -> O+O and then the free O reacts with some O2+O -> O3 and then those absorb UV >240nm and break up into 2O3 -> 3O2

Called Chapman cycle if anyone is interested https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone–oxygen_cycle

[hearty meteor]

I HATE PHOTOCHEMISTRY rant over

[tardy drum]

Anything related to ESO-577 people have come across?

So... there's a secret reload animation EE apparently.. reminiscent of Battlefield ones (might be different)
#1201288968562552863 message

[dull marsh]

I mean that's not new, we probably have to fill some conditions first for it to trigger

[cold heart]

we already knew that secret reloads existed... but not that, that, included this

[tardy drum]

That'a great. Whenever it was announced, I'm sure a lot of folks didn't see it and it was never mentioned again, so here it is, mentioned again

[cold heart]

👏 its in the EE spreadsheet

[tardy drum]

The padlet?

[cold heart]

no... the spreadsheet, its in the pinned comments - but its this:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tfveK-QScK3a7dr9LxGxIuFiw89nhoUxJvbfwCkMgXU/edit?gid=343130307#gid=343130307

the eyes/thread is here: #easter-eggs message

[dull marsh]

#1213975580303691859

An old forgotten thread

[tardy drum]

Ah, I see. Yeah, never seen it past all the pinned messages. Only seen the Padlet and even that's a lot. Tbh, I'm not devoting hours looking at all EEs. Just whatever comes up and is an updated topic. And Dolphin Charm.

[dull marsh]

Outrageous!!! You should devote your entire life to the hunt!!! Booooooo

[cold heart]

tbh if you wanna look at anything, the spreadsheet is the place, it gets updated pretty often

[tardy drum]

Lol, hey, I try to chime in to whatever comes up that's new at least. Before I was like 90% charm and 10% 3HM and since charm is essentially dead in the water, I've been trying to stay active on other stuff like the new screenshots.

[dull marsh]

No problem, you're doing good!

[cold heart]

was the spreadsheet removed from #egg-hunt-onboarding ??? tf

[tardy drum]

Will keep in mind, thanks! I was looking for this on the onboarding thing so legit thought the padlet = spreadsheet this whole time

[tardy drum]

YES, THIS IS WHY I NEVER SEEN IT lol

[hard forge]

it was not there in the first place

@fallen jasper

[cold heart]

the spreadsheet is like wayyyyyy more useful than the Padlet to start off with wtf, lets get that updated

[tardy drum]

I try my best, but I don't have the mental capacity to focus on too much, so I try with just one thing at a time tbh. Hence me staying up to 10pm-3am consistently, lol. It's my "EE hunting/game time"

[tardy drum]

Will keep this pinned/bookmarked on my own device for future reference. Thanks!

[hard forge]

I have better resources for you

#easter-eggs message

this pin

on this channel

[tardy drum]

Aside from scrolling all the way down through all the pinned messages, how else would I have found that? Genuine question. It seems I miss some good resources cause they get lost in pinned messages/are 2-3 months old now or older.

I'm dumb to Discord so is there a smarter/more efficient way to generally view everything pinned in a more mosaic-like way?

[hearty meteor]

no

[cold heart]

tbh you should try to read the pinned comments in the threads you care about, if you have the time (i know this sucks if youre using mobile)

but im sorry you didnt see it sooner 😢

[tardy drum]

That’s my problem, there’s a LOT :/
I do go through them here and there, but yeah.. no efficient way currently.
Appreciate the heads up though. Those resources seem the be better than pins at the moment*

[unborn pilot]

im so glad to see others are updating it. i think we had it pinned before, but not in the onboarding

[hard forge]

nova is doing all the work

[unborn pilot]

nova is killing it then

Rob thank oyu for being amazing

[dusk veldt]

We should update the #egg-hunt-onboarding perhaps? Add new info regarding the 3HM etc

[hard forge]

yep

[cold heart]

its best to link these kinda of things, so people know what youre on about
... and to use #1201288968562552863 instead

[dusk veldt]

@fallen jasper would this be possible?

[snow walrus]

purple dots, ")|" and something on top left

first ss from twitter source and the second same frame from YT. I can't see the outlined part on the YT vid? You think it's twitter bad encoding?

[spring thistle]

🗿

[steady plume]

it has the letters to spell Stig (g = 9, s = 2)

i 9 9 t i 2 2

i = 1
t = 7
9 = G, Q
2 = S

im not sure what we could make out of that

[steady plume]

its just the volpe logo layering over, probably just a bug

[blazing nexus]

stig is a scandinavian name, basically sweden denmark and norway

so sweden if we think about it

[fallen jasper]

Yeah. What do we need updating?

[cold heart]

• 7/9 monkeys found
• and this google spreadsheet link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tfveK-QScK3a7dr9LxGxIuFiw89nhoUxJvbfwCkMgXU/edit?gid=343130307#gid=343130307

• the level 2 page, can also be replaced with this: https://www.reachthefinals.com/tfeeactivationlvl3
  i think thats everything

[fallen jasper]

Updated it

[tired python]

what is this thing? is it the same thing from the sticker? they both have a white dot in the center of their head

[spring thistle]

I just found out that the practice range level also has multiple players using the same server

Tried sniping a guy. idk if I hit him but he did start shooting in my direction

[neon raptor]

Head/shoulder of the monster target reminds me of the robot skin head that just came out alongside it. I don’t think there’s a deeper meaning to it. If there is maybe a cyclops kind of thing

[steady plume]

Its a Kaiju

That Mech skin is called a Gundam, japanese mech used to fight large ancient creatures called Kaiju

[pseudo atlas]

so what your saying is its a pretense to the kaiju skin to go with our mech skin. and with the whole japan theme S3 has it makes alot of sense lol

[cold heart]

Unless its patched you can kill people

Please dont though

[tired python]

Why?

[tardy drum]

Stig

Like
The Stig lol
Like TopGear
The Stig

[cold heart]

Because its not nice to kill someone who is helplessly doing their own thing in the practice range?

Its bug abuse at best

[sleek stratus]

Some say that he invented the curtain, and that he recently submitted a £20,000 expenses claim for some gravel, for his moat. All we know is he’s called the Stig.” Or “Some say that his first name really is “The”. All we know is he’s called the Stig.

Did Shakespeare come up in Level 3 yet?

His funerary monument is in the Holy Trinity Church.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakespeare's_funerary_monument

[unkempt dune]

well Level 3 hasn't started.. so no

but if you're talking about this part between Level 2 and Level 3.. the answer is still no

I do know rob said something related to Shakespeare at least once during the last tier of Level 2

[naive fjord]

can someone link the new intro cutscene we got with the new update? I would like to do some digging...

[gloomy anvil]

which intro cutscene?

[naive fjord]

we got a new cutscene when we entered the game from the newest update

i wasnt paying attention to it when it came on. would like someone to link it if they already pulled the file

[naive fjord]

gracias

[gloomy anvil]

this is a recording, not the file itself

[naive fjord]

shiiiii

well i will see what i can see

thank you raid!

there is some offputting audio at the very end of it

glitchy but it sounds like it goes up and down

ill try and pull JUST audio from this andd see if I find anything odd

[broken urchin]

So I found some lines of symbols on SYS Horizon, have those been discussed here yet? I don't see pictures when I search for them.

The ones I've found are "1/4 3/4" with a crossing "äó !!#3 c".

Another one is " | - clubs card♣️ ♀️"

There might be more, I just saw these while in a match.

Unfortunately I can't post pics because I don't have hi enough rep in here yet.

[rugged breach]

I can upload them for you if you send them

[broken urchin]

Sure! That'd be great, just sent them to you

[rugged breach]

From @broken urchin

These are the line symbols, been mentioned a few times

Don't think anyone's been able to make things out of them though

[broken urchin]

Ahh thanks, I must have missed the conversations on them. I got excited when I saw them. I thought "whoa, the ground is literally lines of code"

[rugged breach]

Even if old, it's still a good find! Also not much convo on them since we've not found where/what they hint towards, if anything

[tardy drum]

Was playing on Seoul
There was a siren noise, not a familiar one (unless I’m dumb) anyone know what I’m talking about?

I’ll check out the footage in a bit
Maybe I’m tripping lol

[cold heart]

itll be the crane, when the wrecking ball gets detached

[tardy drum]

OHHH thank you. Most likely. I thought it was only when the crane moved, didn’t know it was when the ball detached

Maybe that was part of the Cannon EE.. someone shoot the ball and when the alarm plays, fire all the cannons at once .-. Haha

[turbid tinsel]

anyone look over the dual blades image in game announcements? looks clean and resembles some effects from the last 2 official images with smoke and what not. kinda seems like there is stuff written on the blades in a few spots

if rob sees this, does the red moon have to do with the burrw GIF ? 😟

nah he will say "omg youre finally back on track"

every time the Red Moon is mentioned he points out that we keep ignoring it (which we do)

but Does The Red Moon Howl

[tardy drum]

Random, but I finally heard “Bells” on Monaco. I thought it was supposed me be one giant like church bell but it was like a series of bells chiming all at once. Are those the super secret “bells” people talk about that we have no clue about?

[cold heart]

Must be 🤷‍♀️

Im still yet to be blessed/notice them ehhe

Someone reckoned it was time of day

[tardy drum]

I had JUST loaded into a game that was pretty much almost done .-.

[cold heart]

By this i mean irl time

But it was just speculating

[tardy drum]

Oh I know haha. I was thinking it’s related to some 12-o clock in real life

Or
19:00 / 7 o clock somewhere 🤔🤔🤔

Nvm
I recorded it at 12:44am PST.

Rainy night, 12:44am PST
Intredasting

[unkempt dune]

yeaa, those are the bells I've been talking about

only heard them twice and it's only been when loading in

[tardy drum]

Oh damn, only when loading in as well? That’s even more interesting

[unkempt dune]

around the first time I heard them #easter-eggs message

it's possible they were added recently since I've never heard them before then and I've been playing since OB

[tardy drum]

Never heard them ever until last night(?) or the other night. I only remembered to hit save on recording cause someone mentioned it briefly recently.
Loading in part is definitely weird.

[unkempt dune]

11:30pm PST and 12:44am PST hmm

those are pretty close to 12 hours apart

[tardy drum]

74 minutes apart *

[unkempt dune]

just off by 1 hour

and 14 minutes

[tardy drum]

Yeah.. hmm.. I’ll keep an ear open during those times tonight

[unkempt dune]

I don't think the map variant makes a difference, because if I remember correctly, I've heard the bells on sunny monaco

could be wrong about my memory though

[tardy drum]

12:44am is 7:44am in Monaco IRL.. seems a bit random (7 hours behind)
11:30pm would be 6:30am

Trying to line up Monaco castle bells audio with what I have recorded but mine is so short.. and cut off by the announcer (I really need to turn them down)

Maybe something related to 21 gun salute. 3 cannons with 7 shots each
Or who knows haha spitballing ideas

My only guess is Rob was changing something in anticipation of us activating level three and changing the URL it messed up the activate button

[snow walrus]

Probably messed up something while doing this :p

not so off topic… but today I made a background video for LVL3… not sure it will be needed soon… but at least now its uploaded

I have tried to find Easter eggs but I haven’t found any yet I will keep trying tho

There are words and numbers on default skin guns I just realized is there anything to do with that

[snow walrus]

Hello! If you are new you should check pinned messages and #egg-hunt-onboarding

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1081846739318866010/1081846739474071552/000.gif

[stuck fulcrum]

Thanks

[snow walrus]

Don't hesitate to ask questions

[untold tusk]

Has there been any discussions about the finger print smudges on the backside of stickers when inspecting them?

[hard forge]

nope not yet

[stuck fulcrum]

You might be able to find who’s finger prints they are might reveal something

[spring thistle]

Yeah just run them through the government database

[opal pond]

If I have to guess they’re the contestants finger prints. (Cause thats the only hands we’ve seen so far afaik)

[untold tusk]

Well if you inspect any sticker on the back side and move around the light kinda looks like a couple faces

Imo it does at the right angle

[stuck fulcrum]

Does anyone else take a break and appreciate the people who make the Easter eggs the game developers did an amazing job

[tight granite]

Yeah that usually happens when I’ve exhausted all options and my last brain cell that’s been used for the game of pong in my brain misses the paddle

So it’s just head empty, super well hidden ee-s all around

[unborn charm]

so there’s a little bit of green glitching when you inspect things is that a visual glitch or do you guys think it’s a hint?

[proud minnow]

GOOD MORNING.!
This was just my control-freak-nerd-brain that messed up... I updated a video on the Level 3 page yesterday and noticed a TERRIBLE mistake...

I had (like I see that you already noticed too) named the URL "tfee_level3" instead of "tfee-level3"... you can understand the drama in my head... so I had to change the URL to follow the established naming convention... (but forgot to update the URL on the activation button... zzz)

It should be working fine now...

i can finally sleep easy 🤣

[proud minnow]

yes, the page looks much better now.!

[dull marsh]

Can we get a mini sneak peak of what you uploaded? 👀

[hard forge]

000x000 pixel ?

[unborn pilot]

you're about to get 1 pixel

[cold heart]

its a shame i cant see it, something about a password?

care to share it so i can see for you?

[proud minnow]

YES so you can understand the panic when I realized it was a “_” instead of a “-“ in the URL.?!

My first thought was “That’s it, it’s over, I’m done, time to move to the farm and give up games”

[dull marsh]

Also big question, are you still awake or did you wake up early?

[dull marsh]

That's a L mistake Rob.

I rate it -L even.

[tardy drum]

Rob I think you messed up the password as well. What was it supposed to be? I can try to see if it’s works now.

[proud minnow]

I woke up early… but I fell asleep late… haha bad combination… but will try to go back to sleep soon… ._.

haha, no I’ve think I’ve tested that 30-40 times in incognito tabs, different browsers etc… I’ve been waking up so many times thinking “OMG WHAT IF THE PSW IS WRONG AND THEY CANT LOG IN.!!”… but it’s working… ._.

[dull marsh]

T3 flashbacks right there

[hard forge]

Find PSW XXXX-XX-XX?

[dusk veldt]

haha totally! what was it that you tried again, ill double check👀

[hard forge]

but we are close. Just need to connect the dots and Os

[proud minnow]

here are some pixels… I guess you can guess what it is pretty easy… but that is OK, it will not ruin anything, or help you to unlock Level 3… ._.

[dull marsh]

Just need to look a bit left, a bit up, a few degrees here and there and we'll get it

Looks like the lore videos blue grid

[proud minnow]

same to you my friend

[dull marsh]

Well Rob, now go back to sleep, you got a lot of work Monday, you'll have to hurry up to make Level 4 background video

[dusk veldt]

Hes probably on level 5 at this point, dude never rests ._.

[unkempt dune]

was looking a bit into f/11 from the sniper skin and found this

Cameras used by Apollo astronauts were equipped with ASA 160 film (equivalent ISO 160 in digital cameras). And they were instructed to use the following camera exposure values: shutter speed 1/250s, aperture f/5.6 (in shadow), and f/11 (sunlit)

[dull marsh]

Even while he sleeps, he dreams of EEs

[cold heart]

do rob~~ ot ~~s dream of ~~ electric sheep ~~ easter eggs

[proud minnow]

hehe if you only knew… ._.

[dull marsh]

I know Rob

I've seen the files

(I know nothing)

(I'm just coping)

[dusk veldt]

Bro saw beyond the walls

[hard forge]

Ludo dreams the same dreams

[dull marsh]

I saw the walls beyond the truth

[proud minnow]

OK, will go back to before… Hope you all are doing great, that you will have a great weekend and that you play a lot of THE FINALS.!

[dull marsh]

Damn maybe I need to sleep too

[dusk veldt]

See ya Rob, natt natt!

[dusk veldt]

I asked you to go to sleep an hour+ ago

[dull marsh]

Too late amhr

[cold heart]

pre-big bang, "before"? 👀

[inner sand]

Goodbye

[unkempt dune]

also on the sniper skin there's 200 100 50 25 8 which add up to 383 and that unicode code point is ſ (Latin Small Letter long S https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_s)

8 feels like an odd one out because of this:

• 200 / 2 = 100
• 100 / 2 = 50
• 50 / 2 = 25
• 25 / 2 = 12.5

Virtually Manufactured on the film charm

it has shown up before at least once (on the flamethrower)

Amhr:

I dont know if im going crazy, but on certain spots at times on Monaco when i dematerialize i swear i can hear "haunted" noises
Re Rob:
I wonder why… ._.

Amhr:

Idk if im actually going crazy
Re Rob:
No, you are not…

[tardy drum]

Love how Rob saying goodnight means he’ll still be reading the Discord for the next 20 minutes lol

[dusk veldt]

Raid:

There's a chance the entire password becomes a 19 letter anagram S L I E S C E T A C E A ? ? ? ? ? ? ? and the word split is at positions 2 & 7
although 2-7 seems more focused on the 3HM specifically


Rob:
(hmm… looks like you need to organize your word/letter hunt a bit differently… but you are absolutely on the right track…

Plastics:

So weather related maybe

Rob:

no I just meant in here, you found all the monkeys needed to proceed, but you need to figure out what letter each of them represents in an organized way… ._.

[unkempt dune]

I just realized it, but all these plants look dead in the tutorial

I'm wondering if it was a mistake and the leaves were accidently removed for this group of foliage

it wasn't always like this

[dusk veldt]

These ones make it look like a mistake, but unsure

[wooden crystal]

could this be a hint?
#easter-eggs message
That "_" should be replaced with "-" or vice versa?

Much like how in a previous stage o was replace with 0

[hearty meteor]

its a common iso setting tho, its not really out of place

[unkempt dune]

8 is not a common iso setting

in fact, I've personally never used a camera that went down that low

[hearty meteor]

it definitely exists

[unkempt dune]

I do know film cameras can do 8

[hearty meteor]

i wouldnt discount it as out of place though

[unkempt dune]

I would consider 8 out of place though

feel free to think otherwise

[wanton sundial]

Keep it on topic here, please

[opal pond]

Sleep is for the weak according to

[spring thistle]

Sleep is for the weak according to me

[tardy drum]

Same

[gloomy anvil]

does it look like this? 🥺

[spring thistle]

I noticed that June says "Don't unplug yet folks. This match is headed into overtime."

Interesting part is that she says don't unplug

Are the spectators also watching in vr?

[cold heart]

i always thought that was the case ngl

[silk bolt]

yep cause the arena is in vr world the contestants are in virtual bodies in that world so any spectator there is also watching from vr to be in the stadium

[spring thistle]

So who's in the stands floating above the arena?

[tired python]

I feel like this can be interpreted in multiple ways... like maybe power/electricity is more valuable nowadays? It would make sense I think if Arc lore is connected to THE FINALS

also maybe the people in the stands are viewers who can't afford VR

[stuck fulcrum]

does anyone want to party and private sys horizon matches

to look for clues

[alpine junco]

Yeah

[silk bolt]

the viewers with the vr headset

think of it like a football match but in a virtual world and to get in there and watch it live you have to use vr too and be there

[spring thistle]

The worst angle in sports history

[inland hemlock]

they probably can zoom and have different angles, maybe even a free cam mode

[spring thistle]

It just won't jump to the right message

[silk bolt]

yep maybe but to get access to these you have to buy a ticket or some access card to be in the arena too
