hmm it would seem the best course of action is to figure out what these categorize to, it's hopeless to try a password 9 times to see if it fits any of the spots
gotta be a way to narrow down the categories
so did you guys workout where all the coordinate point to?
fwiw, Rob has been saying we're "going back to the big hunt" in S5, and S5 just launched today, so we're hoping for an increase in clues
Here are all the possibilities on Earth, NE/NW/SE/SW: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1gTEAYxRe-rnCRTUCKRYY9WClHLtpnho
4/5 of the NE coordinates can connect to the word "Kara" in some way, but that theory hasn't gone too far.
We've had some clues pointing to "N W" / North West, so we might need to use the NW coordinates, but we haven't found anything those specifically point to yet.
beautiful
did anybody calculate what the center of those coordinates would be?
this makes an x shape, right? I'm just asking questions right now to figure out where you all are in your thinking š
the center of all those would be 0,0 since each quadrant is the same coordinates but plotted as NE, NW, SE, & SW
I am a silly fella aren't I
I did the same thing 
oh heh Null Island
I remember when that was a hot topic in here
man... where to even start
did yall ever find the hd version of the burrw gif?
No, but apparently we don't need it. We did discover the other hidden characters besides YMF292
I believe it's 1997122, according to RCade #1178137622359593043 message
has there been any connection made to - > black knight -> joker -> heroes -> the black knight in marvel? first debut 1955
I don't think that exact connection yet (until now)
or any combinations/ thoughts connecting
jack
black knight
rabbit
rob said it's starting really high level stuff
I looked at Jackrabbits for a little bit, and black / black tailed Jackrabbits, but it felt a bit cherry picky
still worth exploring of course
hm so our main three points are
black knight
white Rabbits
poker cards/playing cards?
hehe one of the passwords is gonna be Arrrghhh
If I had to list our biggest clues / themes rn
- X
- Black Knight
- Alice in Wonderland
- White Rabbits
- Burrow
- Lewis Carroll
- Aliens
- X-Files
- Playing Cards
- Jack
- Terry Gilliam ?
- Twin Peaks ?
I imagine that's an unsorted mix of primary, secondary, quarternary etc clues
hm, I think until we narrow down how to separate mw1 mw2 and mw3 we're toast in terms of time
if we could figure that out, we'de majorly remove a layer of complexity
There are the New York connections, I recommend RHB's video on those: https://youtu.be/Epr-x50rEig
I've always found them a bit confusing when put in the context of other Level 3 themes, but Rob did give the lore theories confirmation, and they connect to Black Knight.
In Episode 11 of Beyond The Walls, I provide an update on Level 3 of THE FINALS Easter Egg puzzle and show you a discovery we made that revealed the inspiration for the entire lore of THE FINALS.
This series covers hot topics and news about Embark Studios' games, THE FINALS and the in-development ARC Raiders, and their communities, as well as u...
Not confusing because they don't make sense, RHB did great work and there are solid connections in there. It just feels like its own thing when compared to Rob's later clues like AIW.
It spawned some theories that MMA = Metropolitan Museum of Art or Modern Museum of Art
and that MW.AREA could mean Museum Wing area
seems we've been given arrows pointing out in every direction but no way to know where those arrows end because we haven't necessarily categorized much outside of WR, black knight and jack?
they really wrote a long essay to everyone in the credit video that usage of punctuation looks like Rob
wanna share this here, in case possible another easter egg or smth.
hidden letter, N or Z on the spear.

I think maybe a more accurate way to describe it, is that the Easter Egg clues and clues to the inspiration for the game's lore are mixed together. Maybe that will continue and become a stronger connection, but maybe it won't. Some EE clues aren't really lore-related, so it's a real mixture.
have you guys noticed that the paintings in the homes of bernal are very similar to that of the Golden Nugget in Vegas?
HI RHB long time no see!
both cities reside in the desert btw which makes it obvious.. but yeah
I've been lurking - but have had some other stuff on. I'll be back on the EE stuff next week!
this is my first introduction back into it since... march? it's been a while and there's a lot to read up on lol
Yeah, there's a lot of stuff that's been uncovered but hasn't been solved, so I'll try and put a lot of those into the next vid as a bit of an update.
your videos are inspiring, I think I'm going to try and take a crack on how to organize these passwords
Thanks! The Level 3 ones, you mean?
yes
unless you guys already have your own way to categorize them and their connections I missed in the miro
yeah, we have some loose ideas - some around the Met Museum, but nothing's given us any real progress. I think we'll probably feel like that until we solve the first one.
can agree, has there been any thought to maybe only 3 of the 5 coordinates are important?
if it's laid outs similarly to the other ee password sheets, 3 of the coordinates are important, and each of the 3 is a clue connecting to or pointing to what you guys have found already
just a thought
so working backwords
we had 4 out of 5 that potentially link to the word "kara"
kara sea in russia territory I think right?
yeah, and the kara-kol for the eastern-most one
at least one of the coordinates points that way, but that's only if you're using NE right? haven't you guys gotten a clue pointing towards NW?
not that I've seen. If we move them on any mirror type zones, they end up in the ocean, which are probably not linkable to much
hm, my brain wants to think 3 of them are useful and 2 of them are not, but no way to prove that unless I look at the coordinates and there locations if that even works
@pure loom
yeah, these are the sorts of paths we should think about
also by that logic, did anyone ever try to find what 0002 stood for? it seems each number corresponded to a symbol or letter, but nothing out of 0002? also, the multiple xxx in the W coordinates but not the N?
we know Rob doesn't just... throw things in there for funsies, that 0002 may be to help us in some way
my brain is cooked
hm. 0002 corresponds to the Start of Text (STX) control character in ASCII It's a "non-printable control character used in communication protocols."
could also be a way to maybe precisely place our coordinates
Omg look whoās here.
Yeah a bit stuck on the 0002, but likely doesnāt follow the same pattern as the rest.
I think thereās a reason we still have to type sliescetaceaasconce to get to the page. Itās 3 passwords together, leading us to 3 columns of new password each with 3 tiers. Havenāt figured out why but could be that 1st column is slies related, 2nd cetacea, etc.
You probably remember all the Shakespeare clues which I donāt recall led us anywhere. 5 truths, 5 lies, S lies still seems like something to me. 5/S in binary on Seoul, WR writing out slies, s lies writing on the wall. Probably leading us to āsomethingā for Level 3
I thought the Shakespeare stuff was pointing us to his statue in Central Park.
Very much could be! I want to figure out why slies is still important.
Welcome back 
Spreadsheet should be normally up to date. If not. @velvet narwhal would you be so kind to let the script run later today?
Rob gave a clue about Namatama going on vacation to X, X, X. Iām thinking one of those Xs is NY/Central Park for sure. But maybe not all.
Solar panels on the iseult complex at bernal are 12x12 with dots on the connecting points. Vegas ceiling light grid is also 12x12
#1182955042416893984 message
I wonder if thereās multiple cities with large urban parks? But, if so, why would that be a thing?
I wonder why he gave us the short form of walk in the park āwitpā
they reflect and i think if we can manage to find the right angle we can possibly see what stars they're reflecting to match the grid, just an idea
match to the vegas ceiling image*
Probably a double meaning. Always with the double meanings 
If letās say the first column of passwords (1a, 1b, 1c) is āsliesā related (white rabbits, Alice in wonderland, letter S, Seoul, writing on the wall, 5 truths, Shakespeare, Central Park). Has there been any connections to Central Park and cetacea or asconce?
Wouldnāt it be amazing if those 3 passwords could be crossed over with the level 2 passwords somehow to come up with each answer. But then why would we need the coordinates?
just found this for witp. but probably not right
https://web.archive.org/web/20120321052816/http://www.volcom.com.au/2011/07/witp-monster-skate-park/
Yeah it would be. That reminded me that geocache is still important. These levels are not random, itās all following lore for sure
Well, Rob is a skater
Thereās some underlying story here. Iāve been thinking about where he might be leading us lately. It would have to be something reasonably significant, surely?
I watched that clip in the Twitch clues and to me it sounded like he gave us parts of 3 passwords. First one has XY, second has RR, and last one has 1X2 in it.
War in the Pacific has surely been brought up regarding that, right? I haven't been paying too much attention
i think not yet
I remember playing that many years ago
They can do damage in any variant, it's just hard to pull off.
My update frequency slowed down while rob was away...
I'll update this weekend
I don't know how far back I need to read in order to understand what's being said. I feel like I've walked into a meeting held by Ultra at Bletchley Park.
depends. where you wanna start? š Or what knowledge you wanna gain?
I miss some of the old Easter eggs of Battlefield, although I'm not good at solving them. Me and my mates would have a laugh activating/ or finding them.
So, I'd be interested in finding where I can have a laugh with mates or provide an interesting historical fact :). Something small to start understanding Easter eggs in the game.
I would suggest to watch the EE Beginners Video of RockHoundBlack.
Else you could also have a look at #egg-hunt-onboarding to look through all which we have as of now.
A comprehensive guide for beginners who want to join the Easter Egg hunters on THE FINALS Discord in solving the pre-release puzzles that are being presented to us by Embark Studios.
00:00 Intro
1:41 Background to the Easter Egg Puzzles
2:58 An update on the missing flamingo...
3:59 Why do we have these Easter Egg Puzzles?
4:34 Puzzle Tiers and...
Sweet! Thank you, I'll have a look :).
Hi, last week before the update there was a sticker that looked like a treasure map. You saw big mountains on the background and a red cross. I didnt screenshotted it sadly... Does anyone has a screenshot? It is definitely on a the new map
If you have any more questions afterwards. feel free to ask
I guess you mean this one.
yeah. we already crafted some theories about it. But we are not sure yet if it really is the new map.
As we got the same sticker name & description "Lost Legacy" in S3 aswell in form of a sticker.
It led us to a hidden golden namatama which @dull marsh found with the first Lost Legacy Map.
It could be also meant for one of the other maps where we might have missed something that is still hidden. (like another golden namatama)
YESS ty thats the sticker it i was searching for
Hmm maybe it looks sort of the same as the new map
I will take a look
I think I might have joined the gang after that was being updated. Where can I see the spreadsheet?
#egg-hunt-onboarding and somewhere in the pins here.
Called it
Oh my bad haha I havenāt checked out onboarding in a little bit. I probably saw that when I first started, got overwhelmed, cried a little, and moved on. I forget going back to the fundamentals now and then can help. Thank you!
am I going insane or was this not on the dissun magnetic field bodypaint yet? i either never noticed it or they added it
"final greeting" which means she was or still is in the game as an EE
"see you in the finals" makes it sound she is in the game as an EE, probably as a graffiti or something from her is somewhere in one of the maps
Sorry if this is a dumb question, has there ever been a resolution to what the button is that shows in the Practice Range loading screen but isn't there when you load in?
The button was there in the alpha version of the game, we think it was there to spawn in the red barrel before they made them spawn by itself
"eggs" sounds like "X" 
Eggs marks the spot
I think itās always been there. I feel like I remember someone trying to scan it. But barcodes in this game are like grains of sand on the beech haha I could be getting mixed up
Ahhh. Dense arrived here also š
I remember hearing that the button is the old model for swapping classses
also... checkout this familiar texture used in Titanfall 2 (referring to the explosive canister's explosion vector)
now I'm curious about where the texture is from
i've been detected š®
If you're referring to the exploding symbol, this is an OHSA or ANSI regulated symbol, required to be on anything that is considered explosive.
That's really insightful! Thanks for sharing
The green gas canisters also have the ANSI symbol for "toxic" which is typically just a skull or skull and crossbones
May contain pirates
š
The fridge has the finals logo as a smudge mark
TIL a lot of Twin Peaks was filmed in 'North Bend', Washington
i had one of these pop up just now
im not really active in here, so idk how important they are
wanted to post it just in case
Whoa itās bigger I think. That looks like itās just the inside of the logo. Dude thatās sick
Nice! Yea we havenāt fully figured out what to do with those. Itās a nod to the Monkey Island games though. Thanks for sharing!
Something like this @crisp eagle ?
Yeah those smears look weird
It looks to me like it was polished there as the rest of the metal is pretty scuffy
You can get more info on that in #1252315342328565760 thread 
Thatās true. Those lines are pretty straight
Not the normal fingerprints and grime you get when moving your CEO next to the stove
Is there a list of stuff that has been attempted with them?
Like drawing lines, placing dots etc.?
Oh, mb, didnt see that
Ill check it out
Ty 
No no youāre all good!
Finding those threads can be as difficult as finding an EE itself š
The Finals is OSHA/ANSI certified confirmed
Let us know if you find anything! Welcome aboard, soldier
I had a thought about VAIIYA having āAIā in the name now that we know it is an AI, and wondered if breaking the name apart will give us something.
V: 5?
AI: artificial intelligence (duh)
IYA: āMotherā in Yoruba Language
If you use dark mode, be ready for the wiki flashbang.
ĆyĆ” NlĆ” is the primordial spirit of all creation in Yoruba cosmology. She is believed to be the source of all existence. Iya Nla literally means āGreat Motherā in the Yoruba language (ĆyĆ”: Mother; NlĆ”: Big or Great). In The Gįŗ¹Ģlįŗ¹Ģdįŗ¹Ģ Spectacle: Art, Gender, and Social Harmony in an African Culture, art historian Babatunde Lawal reveals that ĆyĆ”...
Virtual AI In Your Amygdala? 
also the II has a red dot which looks like the AI
Oh trippy. If you flip it sideways yea
well another thing is the Y adds a third I visually so it looks like IĆI
Rough but oh well haha
Maybe even a fourth with the right slope of the A
"I" and "I" next to each other could be like a double image of "self" - like doublethink from 1984. So, the "I" you think you are, and the "I" Vaiiya tells you you are. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doublethink
Doublethink is a process of indoctrination in which subjects are expected to simultaneously accept two conflicting beliefs as truth, often at odds with their own memory or sense of reality. Doublethink is related to, but differs from, hypocrisy.
George Orwell coined the term doublethink as part of the fictional language of Newspeak in his 1949 d...
What if thereās a count with slopes in their logo? Like for each break it starts a new number
āWe have always been at war with Oceania, and never haveā
"We. As One."
Mother of all creation would be very much like Big Brother
this is very much #šālore related
True
Last thought I had just in case thereās a number here for EEās. This is what I was talking about. Hope it makes sense
yes!
yeah, true, I'll post it as a reply there too, thanks.
Just had another idea - does the eaten Apple on the SYS$HORIZON map point to Apple (the company) and that points to their 1984 ad?
"1984" is an American television commercial that introduced the Apple Macintosh personal computer. It was conceived by Steve Hayden, Brent Thomas, and Lee Clow at Chiat/Day, produced by New York production company Fairbanks Films, and directed by Ridley Scott. The ad was a reference to George Orwell's noted 1949 novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four, whic...
it would NOT surprise me if that was a direction to take given Robs love of pop culture history
I like this idea a lot, it's a "reminder" each time we go to the next one that they're related...
with the mention of one of the passwords potentially containing "rr"
couldn't that be "Mirror" ?
or mirror, seeing as I recall mirrors being highly important
I just can't remember if it was for the 3hm, dolphins, or WRs
first two that came to mind were mirror or error.
hm just tested my own thought but no dice there
Mirror was one of the "five truths" needed to solve T3
no luck š¦
welcome back dev
hm 5 truths, 5 coordinates, SLIES = 5 Lies ? (thank you for the reminder!!)
hey can someone remember what all 5 truths were?
Gold, Egg, Latin, Mirror, GEO (GEO=630)
Rob never confirmed those 5 truths, but they can be inferred from the password
Sal Scoria is trademarked and its version number is 1010... that surprisingly shows up on Bernal as 10:10 at the clock tower
don't tell nobody, but 10 + 10 = 20
and 1010 = 10 base10
Latin, gold, egg, mirror and š¤ Iāll remember
The truths were the literal answer š
this reminds me of the XĖ£ clue
hmmm... markdown didn't work
not familiar with that one
X to the X
where was it found?
yeah that also had to do with one of the x's for the old level being larger than the others right?
the only problem now is we truly are on our own lol
Iām also thinking ā1x2ā might be leet for a word ā¦ixr or ix 9 and r
fixed it
on the helmet of Brown-eyed Girl iirc
do we have any solid "picture" evidence currently? i.e. stuff pulled directly from any artworks, or are we flying fully blind this one?
and @pure loom your connections to the gilded age, robber barons, new york politics and capitalism etc, you leaning more towards that's an overarching theme of the lore/ee hunt, or do you think it could lead to passwords here?
I think the last was the MultiCo gif
After we solved 01:23 = AIW last month, Rob said he'd been planning to post a picture directing us to AIW, but didn't need to anymore.
so Alice in Wonderland, and Abishemu are the two big ones, and Black Knight, WRs, are inferred to be important here based on the past and a few other clues this time around?
and of course X marks the spot as well
Some events that happened on October 10 (10/10)
- 1629 ā Born: Richard Towneley, English mathematician and astronomer (d. 1707)
- 1708 ā Died: David Gregory, Scottish mathematician and astronomer (b. 1659)
- 1731 ā Born: Henry Cavendish, French-English chemist, physicist, and philosopher (d. 1810)
- 1846 ā Triton, the largest moon of the planet Neptune, is discovered by English astronomer William Lassell.
- 1861 ā Born: Fridtjof Nansen, Norwegian explorer, scientist, and humanitarian, Nobel Prize laureate (d. 1930)
- 1967 ā The Outer Space Treaty comes into force.
yeah, meaning AIW is important for us to explore
maybe both
we also have an X over a heart as a sticker
you think it's tied to our current state of things? I didn't see it in the miro or wiki, I'm just trying to see if there's any pieces I'm missing š
well rob did say hints would be in the battlepass/store
Did he say that specifically? I don't recall it
Hi @hard current! Iām a newer hunter and havenāt met you yet, but your old messages have helped me when searching ideas I had haha. Glad to have another veteran!
hehe I was in the midst of finishing up college during that time so Iām sure a lot of those messages were nonsense since my brain was fried BUT Iām glad they could be of some use š
it's been a while but i think it was season 2 when he said something about the battlepass
I just remembered another rr, burrow
š¤¦āāļø
burrow, warren, mirror, carroll (lewis)
like how we got the sticky note fcar which has burrw and other little things from the hunt
@unborn pilot didnāt we find a string of characters like ymf something on that gif?
I never even noticed that. Wow.
Yeah that was solved
it was a diamond clue, which is to help us further down the line, and we ARE further down the line right?
well, solved but was it ever used?
remember when rob said we have the key for the base 64 code but we need to find it š
Not yet and it came back this season with the Sato clue
oh man that one was never figured out?š
nope
wasnāt that found at the bottom of an artwork
this image
ok yeah I remember
so it seems like thereās a lot of new stuff I missed but some of the old stuff is/may still be relevant then
also the 16 clues from the other image
I tried again a few days ago. That one still drives me crazy
16 clues?
some of those ended up being related to 3HM, but some ended up not being used correct?
What I did figure out about that image is if you stretch it the lines completely disappear and you can also layer it perfectly with a couple other CNS images and the squares align, but couldnāt find anything after that š¦
Yes, I don't think we used Apollo X for the activation
I still don't believe Apollo X is correct
Me either
If the north pole was at 90° from its normal location (so above the equator) - this would kind of explain the South Celestial Pole being above the maps at night.
I was trying to remember the original scrambled version so I just said Apollo X
it's something like lapolx
Rob hinted so much to having to layer the CNS images in a certain way to reveal something
ooooooo 
Its the easy way to remember it for now š
loxolap that was it
Fidelis is Latin for "faithful"
Thereās most definitely patterns like the s2 soundtrack cover has it and I think 2 more
also, did rob outright say that image had 16 clues or is that a theory? if thatās the case weāre missing a lot of information with only 7 found
this image u mean?
that had a base64 encoded string at the bottom that hasnāt been solved
There was a passing theory that Apollo X was a clue to "X" or "AX" in the same way that Earth's Aphelion -> Aphelion (software) -> ActiveX might be. I'm not particularly confident in it but it could explain things.
apollo 10 mission 
I suppose I should actually hop on the finals again⦠been so long
join the EE club 
new feature embark added
what is it ill join 
could it be loxolat for axolotl? XD
no way yall have a club setup? admittedly idk how to join or anything, do I have to be invited?
If you drop your Embark ID I'll invite, or you can lookup club tag TFEE and hit request
I'm gonna look at this in a couple mins, but I think the namatama Halloween skin we got has a different contestant number on it than my number
Yeah it's 24, the year š
i mean we did get an axolotl skin in the bp this season
well there you go, case solved
Awwww I donāt get an invite š
wasnāt the axolotl discovered in mexico, and isnāt there a mexico/aztec theme in game rn?
I did try finding your ID to send you one 
the axolotl was named after an aztec god iirc edit: yeah after Xolotl, god of lightning and fire
I can see that now!
Ah well Iāll look it up and send a request when I get on tonight.
but... the p 
yep. thatās prolly why the skin is there, but it could mean something cuz itās kinda random in the bp
if Rob said clues are in the bp this season, I doubt itās there for randomness⦠maybe
did he say that? cuz yeah it could be something.
oh also random thing, but there is a 3 barrel shotgun in fortnite, and itās mythic variant was dropped by the cerberus boss. could be a coincidence but idk
Clues are in BP every single season lmao
mines ratleafpasta and I sent a reques >:3 š
I'll accept whenever Jensen Huang lets me
fortnite collab?
"throw the gate" "nono not again" "this is so unfair" "hello is anyone out there"
Some things that seem suspicious so far
- Out of place butt crack on Eternal Keeper
- Inscription on the inside of the watch on K'in Keeper
- Patterns on Obsidian Bite
Those aren't bite patterns, they're conchoidal fractures that form when the obsidian is broken by hitting it with a tool - in Stone Age fashion, well, I guess, Aztec in this case.
A macuahuitl ([maĖĖkŹ·awit͔ɬ]) is a weapon, a wooden sword with several embedded obsidian blades. The name is derived from the Nahuatl language and means "hand-wood". Its sides are embedded with prismatic blades traditionally made from obsidian, which is capable of producing an edge sharper than high quality steel razor blades. The macuahuitl was...
Not bite patterns but rather patterns on the obsidian bite sword, I see the confusion :p. Surely there's some meaning to them
There's one on each square on the sword, totaling five, since they're the same on the front and back as far as I can tell
oh, I see what you mean š
Ediited the original to avoid future confusion as well 
the eastwood casino is now the holtow casino
that's interesting!
also this is above it
applied for da club!
I found a bucket of concrete on Bernal with a crudely written word in it. It reads something like "DRVUENTRA" ARUDENTURE, or "ARDVENTURA" (perhaps Adventura, but there's an additional letter)
I'm trying to attach a screenshot, but it's not letting me
Am I crazy or the part just bottom right of the sun looks like the shape of south Italy?
Oh yeah. That one
my best guess is ARVUENTURA, although the E looks more like a backwards 3
Ę
I don't think you're crazy
It's not a 1-to-1 match clearly, but it is somewhat reminiscent
I expected some animation but was slightly disappointed to see that nothing moved š„²
We can see a character throwing a cashbox to a cashout, but cashbox doesn't move
what is this?
Arena Legacy Seal, level 94 of the BP
It seemed like those drawing which on a turntable end up making some animation
Awful example but only one I could find lol
On the Evergreen Ink bodypaint from the Northbound Rebel bundle, there is this little thing and it looks like an X on the roof
Made me think of the Lost Legacy drawing with a "house" in the mountains
One side says "NAUGHTY" and the other "NICE" hehe
the boot?
Looking at the recent Lost Legacy bundle, a possible connection is Ghostbusters, it was a Sega Genesis/Mega Drive game which had a song and level named "Home sweet home"
The story also happens in New York
Found this clip on Reddit. Apparently Nama Tama says "Bye bye" if you close out your game
If you move the sticker around, the clouds also make a shape in the sun
Looks like Korean Peninsula to me..
Also I think that "x" you're looking at is a weather vane.
You know.. one of those things on top of houses that point north when the wind blows and stuff sometimes looks like a metal rooster on top.
Another well with a square marking inside, similar to the one near the church, found in the scrapyard, makes two total so far
Feels like a "place vault here to unlock next step" type of interation
On all of them concurrently I mean
Church one for reference
There's also this dried up one in the slum looking area
Could be a Vault Spawn Location, like the one on Kyoto
Kyoto well's definitely a good connection to point out! Showcases the "vault in well" idea
Played on bernal a decent ammount of times to have a rough idea of the spawns, I'm pretty confident there's no vault spawnpoint in any of the wells
it is a spawn location. grabbed it from there yesterday
I haven't seen this shared anywhere, so here it is. Not sure if itās related to any Easter egg or not. Itās on the new map, Bernal, at a house with a white and black(iirc) mosaic and a circular window at the top.
https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/28807546232823877/D411975C5AF7247B33B452BBA0D8800BCE4D68F0/
Got it yesterday š
I was doing a little digging last night on this, and the lower back cactus we get on that page of the BP. It has that sticker saying ācactaceae rex.ā Thereās a popular cactus shaped like a T-rex called (of course) the T-rex Cactus in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona. Itās a Saguaro cactus.
Saguaro cacti are common in Mexico too. I just think there might be something interesting there if it does point to that T-rex cactus in Arizona. And Superstition Mountains is an interesting name. Thereās a lot of superstitions surrounding PeƱa de Bernal.
lines and dots, seem like morse code, what does it read?
In the end the X is made by lights on the stage
And the Statue is buried beneath the SPEAR! stage, where there is Rodrick (I might misremember the name) grave
It looks like the map only provides the specific directions in the mega monkey version
for difficulty's sake
@dull marsh are these articles about technically the same map? or were there 2 in your playthrough?
These 2 sound like the same one
In the theatre you have a pad to control the light with 9 buttons, each direction is a button to press. Once done you use a lever which lights up an X centered on the grave on stage
In Danger Cove there is a boat with a chimpanzee crew and a gorilla leader LeChimp, both maps are the same
Are the suspended structures a variant, or do they show up in all variants?
There are five directions from the map that you could apply to the Level 3 coordinates
C1: SE, C2: NW, C3: NE, C4: NE, C5: SW https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1193672244531052567/1317537392952873061/image.png?ex=675f0bd1&is=675dba51&hm=fddb77e50252e463cb38031ae0f07387a8c24d0498a596addb0a11dcfd4d55a4&
Area: 73,724,420 km² Perimeter: 39,348 km
Suspended Structures is always a variant
Ok thanks! Thatās what I thought havenāt been able to play much yet and havenāt gotten Bernal hardly at all
- Seattle, Washington is known as Emerald City
- Bellevue, Washington is known as City in a Park
- Portland, Oregon is known as City of Roses
(https://www.thoughtco.com/why-is-seattle-the-emerald-city-2964993)
I find Emerald City interesting since Twin Peaks is supposedly in Washington too.
I never knew you could heal the bots, is this a easter egg or just an bug? š®

3 dawns again?
West ceiling pattern on the chapel is faded out
this is the sun bundle lol
The Aztec Empire was a Triple Alliance between three Mexico City-States. With the sun being very important, even worshipping a sun god. (3 dawns maybe)
The Aztec Empire or the Triple Alliance (Classical Nahuatl: ÄxcÄn TlahtÅlÅyÄn, [ĖjĆ©ĖŹkaĖnĢ„ t͔ɬaŹtoĖĖlóĖjaĖnĢ„]) was an alliance of three Nahua city-states: Mexico-Tenochtitlan, Tetzcoco, and Tlacopan.

ring the bells in order of fading?
Out of the lobby now but worth a shot if someone's in bernal. Though I think they usually break rather than ring I since they're smaller than the kyoto bell.
What order would that be though? Other three are barely faded. West > South > North > East?
ALso just noticed the southern one has a dot at the centre from the fading
I do wanna try sacrificing 4 people to the aztec statue sometime rather than the 3 we tried cause of the monument in front of the chapel
https://medal.tv/games/the-finals/clips/jhFse6e3NMPNvbyWs?invite=cr-MSxWR24sMjEyNTY3OTg3LA IMPORTANT: So i was in the practice range today, and I was also on call with my friend, and I thought I heard a voice. It could have been from him, but I don't think it was because I asked him later and he had Crisp turned on and neither he nor anyone else in his house was speaking. I can't think of what else this could be, so it has to be lore. I didn't realise at first so I kept shooting but I might run a spectrogram or some other processes on the non-shooting part. you cant here my mic audio but i ask him "are you watching something or speaking". it may also be noted that before I did this, I took the rose from the bench and placed it on the floor with the others
Pretty sure thats his mic just activating, sounds like discords noise suppression too
Has anyone figured whats up with the fake brick door in bernal?
Running into it will trigger the animation and door sound and allow you to close it from the other side
do you have a clip?
Barely gonna go to sleep but will get a recording cause I'm pretty sure I know where it is
I'll ask when I wake up if anyone wants to run a private match and I can show it
you can use this thread #1217498821563514951 š
Figured, more people active in here so I'll do both, it'll be late by the time I'm up
Most people never hear it cause we start the game and immediately go to volume settings
I am gonna be real tho idk what to look for atm im so confused seeing a spewing chat. Please lmk what we are looking for and Iāll do my best

is there a good summary somewhere of the lore for the game so far? i just got into it recently and am intrigued by the setting
What's the official EE club name?
Also interested
Very interested
tfee
Whats that skin from?
Twitch drops
You have to buy a Rolex watch in order to get that skin
I have a clip in bug reports its called door in wall
thx
Looks very much like a bug, they probably first put a door there, then brick wall instead and forgot to remove the original door
STIGSSOOOOOOOOON!!
Very nice message, thank you
YES, its that one. Threw me off when i ran into it.
do you think CNS's message "S Lies" refers to Sal Scoria, the CEO of Vaiiya?
it could, but the question is what is she lying about even

also i am not sure but this texture kinda looks like a butterfly
ice cream sandwich
i have a feeling we need to activate something or multiple things on the other maps for us to have something on fortune stadium and bernal
either im on that rob seperation insomnia (RSI) or that is 100% a butterfly eluding to maybe the butterfly effect
maybe
nice
Looks more like a mirrored texture straight down the middle, I doubt it's anything else
NEW WHITE RABBIT ON KYOTO
Okay so I was about to say "uugh those lines at the top aren't consisting with blinking surely that's an ee" and then I realized (and please let this be not a bug or irrelevant thing) that they disappear when you tab out of the game.
Yea Iām seeing a butterfly, scarab, or deathās-head moth. Trippy
I clicked it for a better look and fell for it. Fire me. I donāt deserve the tile of Hunter 
I've had a thought
what if the coordinates are not important right now?
we can see they're rotating through 5 coordinates, but there are only 3 positions for them to be in. What if, upon solving the 3 passwords per MW.Area, they become locked?
I.e. MW.AREA 1 is going to rotate through all 5 possible coordinates until we get the a b c passwords filled in, when that happens we likely could see the rotating of values stop and it settle on just one coordinate?
just a thought... the coordinates don't seem to be much help currently, it seems the passwords would be unrelated to them, based on conversation in here
could also be a hint
what are 3 places a WR is found? We know alice in wonderland is related, thus burrow, warren etc
what are 3 places a 3HM is found
what are 3 places the dolphins are found? etc
I'm just trying to think of ways to categorize these MW Areas, seems our only path forward to being able to narrow down what password goes where
It would make sense since row mma# A is at the bottom and C at the top, leading to MW.AREA coords but means we'd have even less to work with than originally thought
yes unfortunately š¦
Maybe examining L3AIM again could yield something,
https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1263921941530677370
we never did find everything.
#1263921941530677370 message
It was split in thirds as well so part each clue falls into could be relevant
if it is split in thirds some way, my best guess is that things found on the left = MW1 and middle = MW2 and so on
It was a vertical split, so top-mid-bottom, could still be our a-b-c
how confident are we that this image and the following one are related to this level, and weren't all just for ACTIVATING this level?
I was not around for it, so just curious if it's worth my time to take a look at them again š
I know the major clues found in the 7/16 one clued to 19, but I don't understand why that's the way rob would have gone, could have gone with multiple hints hinting at "concatenate" or something else
The one above is literally called L3AIM, the other one WRD3HM https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1265367410257428731. Both have the rule of thirds and a whole bunch of clues made note of that are not used anywhere yet afaik
@unborn pilot clearly there's a The Finals EE clue hidden in the Met Museum IRL
Yeah, Iām just not sure if itās the whole level three or just one of the things
The title is the hunt
I've also been thinking too, what if the rule of 3rds could imply that the password categories are spread ACROSS the mw areas
i.e.
mma1-a is related to mma2-a and mma3-a and so on
which.. would match with the rule of thirds @rugged breach just showed
we don't think of the passwords as categorized per MW area but by letter instead
surely its been mentioned already but there's a static shadow on the sundial watch that actually points to where the current hour hand would be
man it'd be so cool if this was Robs thought process here xD
You mean maybe the order goes left to right across the letters instead of going up each column?
yes
Haha yea in the preview stream with Oscar, he mentioned it
Yeah, all watches in the game use your computers time, so the sundial is no different, but since sundials have no hands they had to do what they can
I could see him doing that haha. Combined with what you said about locking coordinates in place after we solve something
did you mean to say eternity? 
BTW there is a hidden voiceline when you randomly quit the game to desktop, is that noted anywhere or related to anything
0 idea if the "bye bye" is anything more than an adorable sound
Yeah that seems to just be a cute Easter egg that happens regularly, being Namatama saying bye 
Pretty sure the image is split in thirds both ways
You fool, you absolute bufoon, I checked 
The one after was split both ways, albeit missing a pixel to align with at the bottom right
hey i can't find the thread for the SYS$Horizon hidden room EE but I think this is possibly a start
It's unbreakable structure in the museum part of the map. You can see purple/red pixels peeping out of the structure and it makes a funny deciphering sound at the 5 second mark.
Throwing an idea out there: it looks like it's a broken up QR code
I think RHB was onto something when he said it's in the museum and this is more than just a coincidence
The sound in morse code is _.. which is "D"
Its here #1315046366417915994 
Thank you! 
I found hidden number "1" at Bernal
https://youtu.be/_jX3JVPJj8Q?si=ZVy9DsJlQMyFTEfE&t=58
additional info: sunny, 2:00PM, suspended sponsor structures
might be weird angle clipping, but damn what a coincidence otherwise
Could prolly precision demat the pillar in front to see whetheri t's part of that or part of the wall behind it
Incredible find either way
Rabbit? More like rabbisnt
Oh I seen a 2 on Bernal last night aswell when I lagged through some composition
Itās gonna be another number hunt aināt it
Any memory as to where?
As I said I was lagging through geometry and my irls pointed it out on my stream through discord
I can go back in and see, I remember attacking cash out D when I was lagging
It's terrain š
š
Mine might have been from me lagging through the geometry then
Has anyone tried standing in the three wells and playing the mariachi song at the same time?
the way it starts right at that wiring harness/piping thing, i wonder if you follow it if it leads to more numbers
did anyone else notice a chance in their random assigned cosmetic number from s5? i swear i changed NOTHING about my account and i went from 99 during s4 to 94 in s5
mine still 78
I think most if not all images are related to the current level. We'll probably need clues from earlier levels for this one
agreed
H2Oh?
what is this item? (picture pls)
BP axolotl item
axolotls could be the new dolphins rob was hinting at in a twitch chat a little while back
this could be one of the clues for it
(maybe we get an axolotl pet if we solve it!!!)
Axolotls were originally discovered in lakes surrounding mexico city of I recall correctly @fallen summit I havenāt been able to play on the new map yet, is there a body of water anywhere on it?
Thereās not. But with the Aztec theme that would make sense. Mexico City was also the capital of the Aztec empire.
Text reads:
We have eyes on everything
That has eyes on you
Might be important later?
Starting from the last eyes we got, I dug a bit into Udo Keppler
He has quite a few interesting illustrations, among which some are related to Alice in Wonderland
Protection Tweedledee and protection Tweedledum (1911) https://www.loc.gov/item/2011648856/
Humpty Dumpty slips from the wall; Humpty's due for an awful fall https://www.loc.gov/item/2011649477/
Tweedledee and Tweedledum https://www.loc.gov/item/2011649636/
There is also one called Sweet dreams
And there are 2 more related to Jack and giants
Jack and the Wall Street giants https://www.loc.gov/item/2010652337/
Jack and the giant https://www.loc.gov/item/2011647187/
Not sure if this has been already spotted but I just saw in Bernal some neon pink shard on the floor near edge of the map. It was super bright pink and the moment I went back to check it it was gone..
Sadly instant replay was off during that moment.
Any1 knows if this is some easteregg?
There is also this 1911 on about "yolk"
Yuming yiminy, what a yolk! https://www.loc.gov/item/2011648904/
Is this right after you spawned?
yep
hmmm the sweet dreams one, I'm not seeing a strong connection there outside of the name.
"Print shows President William McKinley asleep in bed dreaming of William Jennings Bryan riding the Democratic donkey and leading members of the Democratic Party down the path of "Anti-American Foreign Policy", "16 to 1 or Bust. All paper should be coined into Ten-Dollar Bills", "Death to Trusts. (The necessities of life are too cheap already)", "Down with the Courts", and "Free Silver"."
Then it's very likely the "glass" that the player goes through when they spawn and breaks all over, it disappears after a few seconds
okioki š
although death to trusts and politics? that ties into a bit of what RHB was talking about right?
Then I can't take my mind of the idea that xyrr1x2 seem very close to the format of keppler (with 1=l and 2=r)
Yeah I don't know if any of this is relevant, but the Alice in Wonderland connection seems interesting š¤
hm if it were a simple substitution cipher it would be wrong, tho knowing Rob IF that is what it spells it'd be more difficult to work out
has anyone tried keppler as a password?
I can try in a minute
this is udo keppler

Also related to Keppler, RHB found Puck newspaper and statue. Puck is a Shakespeare and mythological character
"keppler" does not work for any passwords, I have not tried any variations including capitalization
And there is a 1911 sculpture of Puck in Midsommarkransen (Midsummer wreath) neighbourhood in Stockholm https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Andersson_(skulptƶr)
same for " udokeppler"
also where is the tried passwords thread? it disappeared for me
the fight between the dead rabbits and the bowery boys -> the bowery boys lived in the Five Points - one of the worst american slums at the time, we are given 5 "points" or coordinates this level as well
Personally not using such as it proved to almost be our downfall for T3
Bowery Boys: "The gang was made up exclusively of volunteer firemenāthough some also worked as tradesmen, mechanics, and butchers (the primary trade of prominent leader William "Bill the Butcher" Poole)āand would fight rival fire companies over who would extinguish a fire." Interesting given that we've had some fire fighting-related items like the fire extinguisher.
yes I'm digging into their leaders background currently
Another thing I've looked into is the idea of Sun and Moon (mostly because of Rob putting OO often)
You should use it
(it's good for inspiration) https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1226677330689261631
And that relates to Tweedledee and Tweedledum telling the story of The Walrus and the Carpenter

someone commented at him a picture of a symbol of the 3 legged crow (which represents the sun) in his response he said something like "no that is not on my board, but a link to that page directly is"
i.e. there's a wiki link that includes the 3 legged crow in it's own article, and he has a link to THAT
At the end of it the two characters end up eating all the oysters
and Keppler has A surprise party at Oyster Bay https://www.loc.gov/item/2011647223/
The Walrus and Carpenter are also speculated to be political characters (possibly)
mmmm but we still don't know if this is related to the level or to lore, both?
very true
So personally I don't really put any frontier between the two. There probably is one but I feel like it's holding us back more than anything else
@pure loom Richard Croker ties up some of these ideas together that I see reocurring for that time period/area
Tammany Hall (Major political party in control of NYC)
Firefighting (chief)
Boxing (where he was first noticed)
but.. nothing from there to indicate anything else
I think we may be missing clues from the images that could help point us in a direction to take, the aphelion of earth and the number 19 don't seem to tie into this line of thinking at the moment...
hey guys I was also doing some digging into the aphelion of earth
**The words perihelion and aphelion were coined by Johannes Kepler[8] to describe the orbital motions of the planets around the Sun. **
hehe THIS kepler is back again!!
Fitting that Croker is the sun in Keppler's painting that Rob eyed
that's a nice find
"During the **Apollo **program, the terms pericynthion and apocynthion were used when referring to orbiting the Moon; they reference Cynthia, an alternative name for the Greek Moon goddess Artemis.[9] More recently, during the Artemis program, the terms perilune and apolune have been used"
apollo as well, if we assume loxolap = apollo x
this is all coming from the same paragraph or two of this wiki article lol
saturn or saturnium is also mentioned
If this is an intended connection, it'd directly tie Level 3 to RHB's lore theory that Rob eyed.
somewhat, keppler vs kepler
though the sun and the center of the image depicting Croker...
"Kepler" -> "Keppler"
Aphelion (L3AIM clue) (word coined by Kepler) -> Keppler's Sun Painting (eyed by Rob)
I think it's solid enough to properly consider
This demo by RAZOR 1911 is super cool, called Insert No Coins (š§) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bR4c0R10678

And that shape that we've had in the S2 battlepass (the charm shape changes over time)
David Duchovny, who plays Agent Mulder in the X-Files wrote a graphic novel called "Kepler"
The name "Kepler" is of German origin meaning "Hatter" (Mad Hatter?) (not many sources)
Yeah, this has been looked at before: #easter-eggs message
good connections but I think we need to pull more clues off the images, especially the one we only found what, 7/16 on? I can't figure out what direction to go with all this because I think we're missing quartnerary, tertiary, secondary clues
was it this one that still has a bunch of clues not found? @unborn pilot @dull marsh
Can anyone remember which cosmetic/gun skin had a snake on it? - not the Spear skin though - iirc there was a copper-coloured one
Slither Bound
Oh! That isn't actually the one I was thinking of. Thanks, though. Was there another one in S1 or S2?
I don't remember any others 
Spear skin and the one Raid sent are the ones i could remember
Maybe it was the dragon skin one I was thinking of. I thought there was a gold-like snake one
Yea AKM has that
ah, the Claws & Snarls set
drakon blast?
yeah, same same
I wish we could look at a full size version of this image
a minute before Rob posted this he said "16 clues coming up... should we head over to official art...?" which strongly suggests 16 clues in L3AIM.
he did also post WRD3HM in #official-art four days later, so there's an open possibility that the 16 clues were split between the two images, but it's less likely
Knowing Rob I guess we can probably only fine 8-10 of them realistically š
should we consider the filename a clue?
I don't think any names were clues in Level 2, but in Level 3 we've had "I_Want_to" and "WRD3HM"
oh vvv.png was
Yeah filenames are completely on purpose
If it helps
Maybe we can find the store thumbnail from old clips
L3AIM -> LEAIM -> MELIA

"walk in the park"? š«£
Walk in the paddock
Waltz in the prairie
Wasn't that the OG hint for the older tiers... Is it back again?
In December 2022 Rob said T3 would be a walk in the park #easter-eggs message
In September 2023 Rob mentioned walk in the park again #easter-eggs message
and more times after T3 started
what did it end up being in relevancy for tier 3?
We don't know, other than it meaning T3 was easy compared to the other tiers
Thankss, just catching up
it means da sun
he says walk in the park so we see da sun
methinks
I'm going back to what started T3, the black knight, since so far I don't see really any connections there
the shapes in the background, surely that's not jsut from lense flare?
anyone know if there's a thread for this picture?
has the number 19 popped up a lot throughout the hunt in other spots?
i remember it showing up on "i want to" pic and then somewhere else i think, but i can't remember. something about it being the number of characters in a password i think.
WRD3HM was filled with clues to 19, presumably because it was the length of the activation password. Besides that, maybe Razor 1911, and @dusk siren had some theories about the numbers 9 and 1.
dude i swear Rob has got to have something with Stephen King in this dang hunt somewhere haha
so far, nothing if I remember correctly
but i know its also common to just find things you're already familiar with
yea i haven't ever seen anything directly related to King. it's just probably me seeing things. just trips me out. 19 he sneaks into all of his book, roses are a huge part of his Dark Tower series along with 19, and there's even a main character named OY. I always think of him when i see OYE
why was this eyed by rob lmao, so long ago, we have a 0002 in our potential coordinates clue but I can't figure out the context of why eoin said this š
yea i don't see the context for those eyes on 302 haha
Rob used --- -- in an above message
3,0,2
surely he did not mastermind an eyeball to be thrown like a year and a half ago right
He did it again here #easter-eggs message
I think OYE is pretty much confirmed as being Open Your Eyes now, given the IRL merch clue, although it could be a double clue of course
Speaking of OYE, this has been mentioned before but only on rare occasions, were most people here already aware? It's from Curse of Monkey Island, the writing seems relevant to Level 3.
it has been mentioned on the miro I think š
that always struck me as silly though, if you go southeast and then northwest, you're at the same spot you started
yea I knew Open Your Eyes. Just always makes me think of OY from the books haha like how you said the double meaning. I just really doubt it. I see what I wanna see š
oh I can't find it on there
hm I swear I read it somewhere.....
Does this look like eyes and a nose to anyone else? Kinda like Frank?
Zoomed in here
In theory you could by finding the 2 files associated but that depends if it's considered kosher or not
S5 is here... how are we doing..?
ROB
Good morning, long time no see
PLEASE GIVE US A CLUE ON LEVEL 3 I'M LOSING MY SANITY
am i dreaming?
Oh hi Rob ā¤ļø
Please give him a minute lmao, let the man breathe š
Nice to be back... I hope you guys are ready..!
(and WITP has been deactivated...)
IT'S BEEN YEARS SINCE WE'VE SEEN HIM I NEED TO TAKE MY SHOT
STOP SCREAMING HELPS
Shhhh
Hello Rob!! 
fr though nice to see you 
WITP was a timelimited ee? š® and we thought it was for L3
Was that a URL? š
okay. URL could also be
OMG HELLO!
ROBBBBB!!
it's been a while ...
Looking forward to see you start cracking again.!
ā¤ļøāš©¹ā¤ļøāš©¹ā¤ļøāš©¹
speaking of URLs actually, was https://www.holtow.com/HOLTOWinsuranceCARD ever used? anyone know? the one on Fortune
deactivated š
Maybe a helpful hand for L3 could help out
We've cracked our head for now 
What do we actually know about WITP? I haven't been to all the Waterdance streams
Restaurant in Gotteborg
thats everything we got in Waters streams from it.
War in the Pacific maybe too, or is it confirmed the restaurant?
the rest rob always told us here. how many times he said its a walk in the park? š
Restaurant is for sure, but I don't know if it leads to "witp" or the other way around
Could you link that?
I'm on mobile so not easy, but he posted a number which is a business id for that very same restaurant
start scrolling from here
#easter-eggs message
I guess now that youāre back I gotta start using my brain a bit more
Usually he's not much there during the day but more late in the evening
i think this too

there's good stuff in both chats
maybe he is recapping the last X days in the chat here š
omg rob is back!
omg rob
Oh great so WITP wasnāt even L3. It was its own EE we missed out on? Fun haha
...reading through some messages... ok this will be fun... ._.
er we did try reachthefinals.com/witp, right? 
i think i did. but when you are asking im not certainly sure anymore
but we should let rob write first now š
Sounds like we crawled through the park instead of walked
haha I think I did too, I hope I did, but it was probably more complicated than that
Did I say that S5 is live...?
Here? Probably not. Somewhere else yeah probably
you know it's quiet here because everyone goes looking if you already have posted it somewhere.
But don't seems that way
The keyart was added to the press kit yesterday, if that's what you mean
also, is that the Northbound Rebel body paint in the background? Looks like "Naughty" on the knuckles
but is it the modified one of rob?
It is. Thereās the Santa patch on the bag under the hand too
ohh he's holding a snowball, might be a snowball blitz keyart
This could be exciting
Rob watching us focus on the completely wrong thing 
I gotta say they achieved perfection with sphericalness of that snowball, hands be perfect half circles
Itās the way itās always been š
What if the snowballs have clues on them if you inspect them tho
Not EE related... but at embark we work with great tools...
Alright gang. Weāve gotta have our heads in the game. You know there are/will be Christmas EEās that will leave with the season.
Lmao Ofc, here in Canada we just bare hand it, who needs gloves
Was that on what he just posted?
This is on the S5 keyart, from the press kit
something where we havent found something until now

TT.JU?
Omg it's my first time meeting him
Raid is gonna holding the password hostage again. I foreshadow it. /j
š
or petscii maybe?
No I mean I donāt know what a press kit is at all
Key art I assume is the S5 pic of our Aztec friend
Oh ok that would be why I was confused haha thanks
guys I accidentally broke the EE guidelines by google shoving AI down my throat.. is it over for me?
Oooh yeah
Looks kinda like tear's
Same, I need to actually read main ee chat now instead of just off topic ee
I feel like he's either very hyped or very disappointed
What is in the background? It looks like santa, maybe a Christmas skin?
Also maybe the messages that are open in the right are important/onto something (probably just the messages that where open last)
It looks like the text itself is in Italics
Yea I keep staring at it. I originally thought 77 but the right side extends further
If that makes sense
Yeah, I was looking for it here https://www.vertex42.com/ExcelTips/unicode-symbols.html
It could also be a T or a 7 in a specific font
A Tironian looks like: ā but there are still differences
Btw when rob says its not ee related can we belive him?

:o Rob is back
Thatās why I keep leaning towards T. Iāve never seen a font for 7 where the top extends that far with a little ātailā
Maybe they are characters in a different language
Thatās the closest one for sure
Should we get these pinned?
Work has been such a grind for last few months so now that I get a break Iāll get to focusing here
Nah there is the spreadsheet with all the eyes, just needs to be updated again, finally š
Looks like a red X if you ask me š
Could represent the letter D https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalet
Dalet (dÄleth, also spelled Daleth or Daled) is the fourth letter of the Semitic abjads, including Arabic dÄl ŲÆā, Aramaic dÄlaṯ š”, Hebrew dÄlet ×ā, Phoenician dÄlt š¤ and Syriac dÄlaṯ Ü. Its sound value is the voiced alveolar plosive ([d]).
The letter is based on a glyph of the Proto-Sinaitic script, probably called dalt "door" (door in Modern ...
It's also a symbol in set theory for "infinite" numbers but I'm not sure if it's relevant here
he's lurking
cracking as in cracking an egg, cracking like an egg or cracking codes? š¤
Rob! What are you able to say about this? #1315046366417915994 message
The secret room in syshorizon has my attention now
is this from the image rob posted or the Preview_Event_thumb image?
Read like 2 messages below that š
š¤¦āāļø
It's not in the preview keyart, or the keyart at the end of the S5 trailer
If we take dd.ju and convert to A1Z26 it gives 44.1021
It could be another coordinate, something about 44.1kHz sample rate, or nothing at all
There's this ddju with a globe and coordinates but I don't see how else it would relate to L3 https://ddju.com
Given we have the format xx.xx I'm assuming it can be the following:
- number (a temperature, a distance, ...)
- date (like dd.mm)
- someone's initials?
- or some more complex cipher
I'm inclined to think none of the symbols are letters. The "J" looks unusually proportioned.
great spot!
saw rob using XnView and then played around with the color changing future of xnview.
does this look like a person or robot for someone of you?
This looks like the top part of 10.53 or 10.52
THEY WENT FULL SNEAKY THIS TIME
more in the middle?
Bit clearer here
I we who
Bottom part of 44.90
They are at different heights, they could probably just be moved together to connect
Translated:
Kaludon
Kappa

Lambda / Delta

Omega

actually Ludo is right, they look like different numbers, 10.52, ??.??, 44.90
ĪĪ±Ī»Ļ Ī“Ļν's an ancient greek city connected to mythological figures, doing a writeup after reading up a bit
OMG ROB IS BACK
On the 44.90 section, that ājā just looks like it hooks to the left at the bottom more than a 9 would
In Greek mythology, Calydon (; Ancient Greek: ĪĪ±Ī»Ļ Ī“Ļν, romanized: Kaludį¹n) is a minor figure from the homonymous region of Calydon, the son of Ares and Astynome. Calydon angered the goddess Artemis when he saw her naked, and was then turned into rock as punishment.
wait, these possibly match up with the black night coords
Depends on the font
can someone send the full image please
The city comes up first when you search for ĪŗĪ±Ī»Ļ Ī“Ļν specifically
Turned into a ROCK you say
wont let me download it
Should be able to download. It's a psd document though so might not be able to open it if you don't have it
man I removed the logo from the keyart PSB yesterday and didn't notice 
send it over discord dm
Can't file's too big š
get XnView Classic. Its free to use. I simply took that rob uses it as recommendation for myself š (too lazy to download PS again)
here is an exported version
that is a person with two things on each side
now I wonder if anything is hiding behind the character itself
ĪĪ±Ī»Ļ Ī“Ļν, ancient greek city said to be founded by ĪĪ±Ī»Ļ Ī“Ļν, son of ĪιĻĻĪ»ĻĻ (Aeotolus) and Ī ĻονĻĪ· (Pronoe?), a nereid. Refferd to by homer, as ĻεĻĻήεĻĻα (stone-y)
Stopped looking here as I'm pretty confident the stone part's the important bit since it appears both in Calydon the person and ĪĪ±Ī»Ļ Ī“Ļν the city
Looks like someone carrying a round thing in their right hand and something else in their left. Walking towards us
Background of the Keyart.
All Information found so far are on the Background
this is behind the charcter, so there should be more
Is that a photo editing software?
atleast viewing. you can do simple things like overlaying colors or filters.
But might be only for viewing. But as of now i found all the clues with it in this image
It's #easter-eggs message
Ok nice. The photo stuff I know nothing about. Iāve thought about trying one that RHB suggested a while back. Gimp something?
Unrelated to this image, but I think I found Frank in L3AIM
10.53, 711.11?
imagine it's another paul klee signature
a little roatation
I see two people
i see 3
All of them seperated in case they're distinct things
I'm pretty sure its like a frame of a movie or a teaser os something, it looks like a radiotower/ antennas in the background
Does it sort of look like a jet behind āhimā? Like someone walking away on an airfield
Freaking top gun
10.52.??.??.44.?0
10.52, 96.11, 44.50 is my guess
Like this
oh wait there is more at background
Last one could be an 8 with that font as well, no?
Beginning and end probably, middle idk
"grouped by 16"
Single red pixel on aztec dude's arm,
#c20f10 for the record
a helicopter?
Confirming it's not compression changing the value
skew you mean?
knew i wasnt buggin when i saw 3
is this another person in the back?
yea
possibly
There's something weird happening on the chest area, bunch of pixels that stick out a lot more between the noise and some brick-like pattern on the big area
i noticed that too, looks like brick pattern
hey aren't they from in game characters?
glowing eyes would be last battlepass dude
biggest guess would have to be constellation related because of the spacing, or over speculating
all the #official-art have those dots and they never ended up being anything iirc
oomf
i remembered this guy
That's what hexadecimal is yes XD
oh i was just quoting the wiki from the origin of the word
"senidenary, or possibly sedenary, a Latinate term intended to convey "grouped by 16" modelled on binary, ternary, quaternary, etc."
there are 3
Looks like a team in game. The front personās right elbow is up because they are holding a rifle maybe
Some kind of building/structure behind them
skyway stadium i think
Isn't this the symbol on the airvent at sys? The maze they're set on could be a clue towards the sercret room there?
Yea I see that too
but why is is this important? is it a sign to look back at key figures in the game or #official-art ??
maybe the number 3?
wait I know this exact screenshot
it's in a beta trailer
!
i thought that too -open beta scene-
Find it!
I'm watching them all right now but not finding this one
https://youtu.be/ctsj-A1tjFY this one?

i was thinking this one
Good catch
but its not i believe
It's mirrored
^
I think it's the correct shot
and a little bit compressed. but else? would fit
yep that's the one I was thinking of
Can anyone make out the loadouts?
i'll try to match them
That looks just like the background for sure
So maybe we have something within this trailer that gives us the first password. As rob said the first password is there since (before) S1
Is that the FCAR theyāre holding it looks very long for some reason
Timestamp? I can't find it lol

It looks like the Pike
That gun didn't exist
oh yea it IS that frame
@snow walrus timestamp
47secs
It's the season 1 trailer
Another pic of the same team. Fcar, hammer, can't make out what the light has
XP?
Yea first image looks like XP
well Skyway was added in OB and it's the same squad as from the OB trailer 
tbh I don't doubt that this was recorded for OB but added to the S1 trailer instead
Common point for that team is
- black clothes
- skull faces
- bright pink eyes
- DXZ clothes
black. like black knight
I do think that Black knight = Black rider = Death is a potential connection
Live wires. Living dead?
Haha yea funny to be āliveā as skeletons
maybe theres a clue in the trailer we missed
Confirmed itās on Pluto. Pack your stuff
but it's specifically a frame from Skyway Stadium, when the trailer is full of other shots on Las Vegas
And it's on top of the Dragon Constellation Studios
The location where there are carpets which have a very interesting pattern (per Rob)
that's possible too
Maybe the coordinates of the pixels matter
Iām really thinking Vegas still with there literally being a visual āpasswordā there
theres this one shot which has the glamora sun and moon
Since that image is mirrored, maybe the text yāall found earlier is somehow mirrored too š¤
He wants us looking back at S1 and tying in that text somehow maybe
Maybe not even written mirrored, but we could maybe need the numbers in backwards order
Just as an image we can refer to
Oh yeah for sure
Frame at around 10.5s
Just mirrord
Frame at around 44.9s
My poor phone right now. Iām saving every image ever haha
Do we have the names of the actual hotels there? I know @pulsar fiber has stayed at the D before which I believe is Zaraby in-game. I canāt remember the others. Glamora is the Golden Nugget maybe?
Season 1 trailer wise, and combined with all the art hints, we also have this guy at 40 seconds
which is (or resembles) a continuous line drawing (https://www.npg.org.uk/learning/digital/family-activities-playful-portraits/harold-moody/9-11-years-continuous-line-drawing)
Ooooh š¤
BTW this has nothing to do with the EE-hunt... phew, just so you know... ._.
Sounds like a close call eh š
Glamora is The D, Iāll have to get in game to name the rest haha
THE_FINALS_powe_i_powe.jpg
omg new #official-art
this is the best day ever
R, S, R are missing from the name
Keeping us busy today
Text Layer Name: here we go.!
Text Layer Text: FROM EMBARK WITH LOVE.!
Yasssss more art
THE_FINALS_powe_i_powe.jpg
Can't really make out what's in the dissun logo but looks like a drawing of a root.
Oh it's an upside down tree.
And next to it there's a character, crossing arms or pointing down, wearing a robe.
Keep it organised ;w;
#1318635922350149736
mainchat is fine to talk about it imo.
Hell to browse through couple of months later though, that's why there's threads for all the other official art as well
and thats also the reason (except that it's Level 3) we got less eyes from rob. because of too much threads.
its both pro & contra
archive important messages in the thread
why does promo halloween skin use pink glow eyes instead of red? isnt the pink exclusive to those who got it in beta?
It wasn't a permanent reward in beta, no part of it is exclusive as far as I'm aware
are we storing all the clues we found on the GDrive image?
I've been keeping a list for the wiki
they have shown pink glowing eyes so much i really want them
I kinda find it hard to keep track of this channel.. haha
- Three numbers, each only half visible. Likely: 10.52, 24.71, 44.90
- A sequence of Greek letters: ĪĪĪĪ„ĪΩΠ(Kappa, Alpha, Lambda, Upsilon, Delta, Omega, Nu).
- "I WE WHO"
- "SENIDENARY", a Latin term meaning "grouped by 16."
- A mirrored and slightly squashed frame from the Season 1 trailer depicting a squad on Skyway Stadium.
"I" "WE" "WHO"
The three oldest words in English
*Scientists at the University of Reading have discovered that 'I', 'we', 'who' and the numbers '1', '2' and '3' are amongst the oldest words, not only in English, but across all Indo-European languages. *
The font used is does not perfectly fit SAIRAS but by stretching the numbers seems to narrow them down pretty well imo
That reminds me of the use of arabic word "ai" which was a clue for aethusa -> 1064
did we pinged RHB that rob is back? š
"AI" is 19 in A1Z26, I've been meaning to mention
I pinged him but it's barely 7am rn
gotta wait till midnight to ping rhb if ur eu
It seems Language has something to do with it
Ok @crisp eagle remembered right, Zaraby is the D, Argon is the Golden Nugget, Eastwood is Fremont and Glamora is Four Queens. They switched Glamora and Eastwood though for some reason š¤
I assume the location ingame might be of use.. that, or the frame of the video/timestamp it was on
What timestamp in the video did you take this from?
powe i powe I'm seeing pow (power), i and e š¤
not from Open Beta trailer, from Season 1 Release trailer
power is power (Dissun tagline) with last letters removed
either that or we have to consider removing the last letters
burrow had it's last vowel removed
slies cetacea asconce
