[hard forge]

so it's this one

[swift mulch]

yeah

[unkempt dune]

I wonder where the leek is

[hard forge]

to which Rob said oye

[swift mulch]

No idea about what that could potentially mean yet

[unkempt dune]

This original photo didn't cut off anything on the map, just checked

[alpine junco]

im still confident that the map is vegas

[unkempt dune]

Leek of the Land - Knows the layout before QA does.

do you think it's the Season 9 map?

[swift mulch]

God sometimes we think an awful lot alike

[unkempt dune]

I feel like that might be it

[swift mulch]

It's likely

[gloomy anvil]

I'm thinking of changing Trailer Easter Eggs to include website EEs too, so we can write about the leek charms

right now they have nowhere to fit in

LDH now has a place to go too

although that is technically an Embark EE not Finals related

decisions decisions how ever will I cope

[swift mulch]

[fading vigil]

the moment that we had two leeks form one page\object.. maybe we should re-check old stuff for changes?

[fringe oasis]

[silk wolf]

Have we figured out anything on the multico documents?

[silk wolf]

Also the roses coming out the chefs cutting board from season 3 trailer

[dense grove]

Thats just a season 3 battle pass emote. Those are bits of an enemy statue that you cut up

[silk wolf]

Ahh makes sense, thanks

The pyramids outta symbolize something though

[odd sequoia]

I finally got to see it myself, thank you! Is anyone still hunting for the other 2? I wanna help

[white patrol]

Have we found out why S1 Trailer Nama is wearing "Green eyeshade/Dealer's Visor"?

Green eyeshades or dealer's visors are a type of visor that were worn most often from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century by accountants, telegraphers, copy editors, and others engaged in vision-intensive, detail-oriented occupations to lessen eye strain[1] due to early incandescent lights and candles, which tended to be harsh (the classic banker's lamp had a green shade for similar reasons).

the Featherweight Eyeshade Company, described their eyeshade as "healthful, color peculiarly restful to the eyes".[4] They retain some popularity in the gambling community.[5]

Back then Casino workers wear this for eye protection? I'm not sure if Casinos were that incandescent light-intensive...
But anyways, The cards Nama tossed were clues, is in there too, I think there's a good reason Nama was wearing this hat? or purely a design choice

[alpine junco]

Dealing with the cards you've been dealt

[gloomy anvil]

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

The hat was a S1 Battle Pass reward as well

[white patrol]

Ohhh icic :3 thankies raid!! is this solved or semi solved or didn't find where it leads yet? (Fear and loathing)

[gloomy anvil]

Fear and Loathing has a ton of connections in level 3, but we don't know if it specifically leads somewhere other than to the themes we've already identified (Las Vegas, gambling, rock and roll, Terry Gilliam, white rabbit, the matrix). It's sort of like a big web that connects a bunch.

I imagine it was intended as a starting point considering its immediate relation to Season 1 content and the core level 3 themes.

[white patrol]

mmm good point, I'll check miro for details, thanks raid <33

[gloomy anvil]

I actually don't know if Miro has all the Fear and Loathing connections

but it has some

[white patrol]

icic :3c

[hard forge]

wtf til learn about fear and loathing connections

[tawny kraken]

isnt its Bernal? "X" pointing to the Amphitheater? The platform that rotates and comes upward

[dense grove]

Have we done anything with DCXXII as roman numerals or something yet? I just went through the pins in this text channel, and there was an overlooked screenshot from RHB where Rob made a random comment with non-specific words, and some words had full caps, "DONT," "CRUCIAL," "XENON," "XYLOPHONE," "INSPIRING," and "INTERESTING." The first letter of each word makes DCXXII which is 622 in Roman Numerals. Im so sorry if this has already been discussed, its nearly a year old but I havent heard anything of it.

[swift mulch]

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

Prophet Muhammad and the early Muslim community migrated from Mecca to Medina. The migration was so important it marks year 1 on the islamic calendar (1 AH)

That’s the biggest thing I can find on 622

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine–Sasanian_War_of_602–628

[dense grove]

I think i overthought it, nevermind

[swift mulch]

Eating breakfast will boot pc to look further in a few mins

[dense grove]

The casino wheel adds up to 622, instead of 666. Rob's Roman numerals added to 622, the date April 4, April is the 4th month. April 4th is 44. 622+44=666.

Rob made a comment over a year ago on an RHB youtube video that had little to no significance other than a little fun EE and I dont think anyone knew that.

I think that's really neat

Its almost 7 am, im sleeping now.

[swift mulch]

Sleep well!

is the TFEE club in game locked & exclusive, or would i be able to join? :3

I've hunted a ton and was in the private lobby when the Nozomi/Citadel ticket hunt was completed 😄 the finals runway subreddit's club im in rn is inactive i need friends

[gusty timber]

Congrats on getting the final leek charm, did you all figure out what the map was?

Is there a chance its a new map?

[gloomy anvil]

I'm sure you can join

Just send a request and @hard forge will let you in

he can't say no now

[onyx hollow]

ily, didn't realize you had to leave your other club for the option to come up, i sent my request, I'm UnusualWarrior#2654 ❤️

[hard forge]

next time I launch the game I will accept it.

might as well join this thread #1315487140020224100

[onyx hollow]

thank you sm!

[hybrid relic]

couldnt get a better angle or maybe didn't try the right gear/gadget to angle it any better. here is most of the top half of the "leek map" : )

[severe creek]

By chance, could I also join

[hard forge]

everyone is welcomed

[dense grove]

I have scoured the map layouts on every arena, and I could not find a really good match. It could be on Monaco, Bernal, and perhaps skyway stadium? But seeing as the new season is in less than 3 weeks, I'm pretty sure it will be something on a new arena they will release.

[swift mulch]

good possibility

[unborn pilot]

Noticing our recent Lost In Space clues also connects to Zorro. Both had the same lead actor Guy WILLIAMS (ofc another William)

[white patrol]

hihiii wrong chat :3

[safe gorge]

Any thread talking about this map??? Cuz i think it leads from the deposit on the map border (under iseult suspended structure) into the pool or a nearby house on Bernal

[austere rover]

Found during one of my World Tour episodes, just wanted to share this slice of history I found in Monaco (found in the park area in-game). The link is to the image of this plaque, which is the only available photo on the internet I could find. Hope this is as interesting to you as it was to me

[ornate sapphire]

can someone collaborate if this matches IRL?

[fading vigil]

Did we ever thought that L3 coordinates aren’t the “gps” coordinates?
And can be vectors, or some sort of other math thing to be calculated or transformed into coordinates?

[austere rover]

gimme a sec, I'll just pop the coords into google maps and put a link in

[alpine junco]

all of monaco is scanned/referenced from irl

[fading vigil]

Isn’t it not on the same spot ingame and irl?

[austere rover]

I believe it is, but I can't find the front of it on street view..
so here's a horrifyingly long link to the page with another view of it from a photo someone else took (second photo looks like the back of it?)

There are quite a few other monuments there as well that are also in The Finals map, so do look around! Cool stuff to see

Woaaaah, that does look strikingly similar

[ornate sapphire]

shame the palace was not included in the map

[austere rover]

You know, I was thinking about "taking care of the garden" as Rob or someone put it as I found this..

There is a map we haven't unlocked yet

[odd sequoia]

Beautiful little read

[odd sequoia]

He did one say that the secret map has always been in rotation.

[fading vigil]

I thought that it means “the map rotation” is a secret, not a “secret map in rotation”

[odd sequoia]

Thank you soooo much!

[alpine junco]

What if the map on the leek is a clue to the secret map

[unkempt dune]

It'd be interesting if somehow there was a secret map that you could queue for

the only thing akin to this that I'm aware of would be the secret room on sys$horizon

[alpine junco]

Ive always had a hunch that the secret room on sys$ is near that loading… building /further down the alley

[fading vigil]

maybe that "loading..." is a clue like we had with nozomi tickets..

[onyx hollow]

do we know what the "SYS 64738" sticker is about?

[fresh quiver]

reset routine for C64

[unkempt dune]

we don't know the significance of it showing up in the hunt though

[austere rover]

Imo the best clue that we've gotten so far is that everything that we need to solve the master ee is in the game itself, signs and all. Apparently we just have to open our eyes and see them, I must be blind .-.

[crisp eagle]

I think the official art clues are very important too

[gloomy anvil]

I don't recall Rob saying that

[crisp eagle]

I think all he’s said that’s similar (and probably what Infamous means) is that we do already have everything we need.

[odd sequoia]

He said everything can be solved without him with what we have.

[low escarp]

#1292576119849095210 message he said it here

[crisp eagle]

Is there a chance this charm might do something in certain areas of the game when equipped? I know the rules about no paywalls, but since this is a free item...

the more I think about it though, it could just be hinting at us needing to go back to where we got this one on the website again to find the other one, which we already did.

[fading vigil]

I’ve noticed that glitchy effects at the video ending is missing in the s9 teaser

[crisp eagle]

I forgot about this one.
"They all point to one thing: 1.2.3."
Makes me wonder if "everything" ultimately links to Alice in Wonderland, then. Since our original 1:23 clue was AiW. And whenvever we discovered that he said something like "now think about all the AiW clues you have."

[stray kelp]

Hey yall. Long time reader, first time commenting. I apologize if this has been said before, but is the practice range rose Easter egg done? I remember reading something about it being closed or turned off after the practice range changes in season 7 and 8.

[severe creek]

Far from done, you can see more here
https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1203859365610922036

[hard current]

I imagine if it wasn’t all already out there we’d have more clues too :/ as it is we haven’t even solved 50% of the clues we’ve received for this level

We FOUND a lot of them… we still haven’t found the golden namas either

Or the large WR

[stray kelp]

Thanks!

[undone timber]

all 3 of the easter egg hunt gun charms have shown invalide redeem code, I have checked for spaces in front and back, does anyone know what could be happening? (been using this code: 0c829f47-80fd-4452-8928-783719735cff)

[unkempt dune]

you need to swasp from ARC Raiders to THE FINALS

top right

[silk wolf]

I think he means "the secret map" as in there's literally a map for us to find in some type of code within monaco, skyway stadium and seoul.

1 2 3 as in corners of a pyramid

or triangle i should say

[dense grove]

Info from the wiki :

On November 19, Rob gave two hints towards either one or multiple Level 3 passwords on Waterdance's Twitch stream. He began by telling hunters: "you can fill in the following codes on Level 3: X Y, double R, one X two."[26] A few minutes later, he referred to a password as "not very hard to figure out" and having "R R in the middle."[27]

On December 4, 2024, the 'VAULT HUNTER SET' bundle was released with update 4.10.0. It includes the 'FOSSIL FORTUNE' charm, 'LOST LEGACY' spray, and 'EXHIBITION GRADE' AKM skin.

Three numbers, only a third of each being visible. The numbers are suspected to be 10.53, 24.71, and 44.58, which are the respective land areas in km² of Europe, North America, and Asia.
A sequence of Greek letters: "ΚΑΛΥΔΩΝ" (Kappa, Alpha, Lambda, Upsilon, Delta, Omega, Nu).
"I WE WHO".
A 2009 study by the University of Reading points to "I", "we", "who", "two", and "three" as being among the first words used in human language. This connection has not yet been confirmed.
"SENIDENARY", a Latin term meaning "grouped by 16."

[dense grove]

I feel like the "X Y, double R, one X two" would be the best place to start, because he just said to fill it in, and have R R in between them. Could be X and Y coordinates or something on a graph

[hot sphinx]

Maybe it's just a replacement
Like X = G, and Y = O
And we're looking for a word like GORR1G2

[hot stag]

Gorilla

[copper fable]

did someone check the tutorial map with the leek map?

[swift mulch]

@dark leaf / @small coral

[crisp eagle]

Not sure what was funny about that question…

[swift mulch]

For some reason I'm thinking back of Ludo's Argon theory. There was also some clue about leaks. And Argon is stored under pressure.

But it's probably far fetched

[crisp eagle]

Farfetch’d has a leek. I’m sorry. I had to

[safe gorge]

"take care of the garden" means rose ee right?

Cuz weve also got a secret room on sys so idk which one of the two it refers

[swift mulch]

Most likely the roses I think

[crisp eagle]

That’s what I think

[swift mulch]

We just have to water them

Only water I can think of is fountains and fire hydrants

[crisp eagle]

Whatever the Roses lead to ultimately have been here since launch. And then with his other gardening clues about the Roses, I assume it opens up a “map” of some kind.

[swift mulch]

NPK is still unsolved all though some steps were made =\

[velvet narwhal]

I think we have to plant them somehow before we can water them

[swift mulch]

They must be interactive for a reason

[alpine junco]

resting place of william the conqueror looks a lot like the cathedral in monaco

[hard forge]

i wondering if William was a clue back to shakespeare

[fresh quiver]

welcome in the EE hunting channel

[gloomy anvil]

I'm gonna be real William was the most common men's name in England for centuries

I feel like our William connections are mostly just that

[ivory island]

He is on to something…

[fresh quiver]

wait mistery man just to be another william

[dense grove]

Theres only the one building, and the other areas didnt line up

[stray kelp]

Would it be possible to get added to the Practice Range Thread?

[swift mulch]

Tagged you in it 😉

Or did you mean for the map? There’s none

[gloomy anvil]

I think you'll need to be level 1 to type in threads - #🏆┇rank-check

[crisp eagle]

Yea for now you can just use this main channel to talk about it until then

[alpine junco]

maybe an emblem?

im one key word from finding this guy

[dense grove]

I missed it today. Was there anything in the community stream today? Not sure if there is usually lore in there or not, just checking

[unkempt dune]

That reminds me.. look what I saw the other day

Turns out quite a few veils use them

[alpine junco]

the one i posted is the tudor rose so maybe there is a garment related to a king or queen with similar design

[fresh quiver]

We miss you rob

[buoyant nymph]

Is this egg hunt still going

Do we have map based objectives rn or is it mostly theory

[fresh quiver]

yes, its still ongoing.
Rob told us we would have everything we need for Level3 passwords. Now we sitting on L3 for over a year 🫠

[velvet narwhal]

both. The main hunt is mostly theory tho

[fresh quiver]

what do you mean with texture?

rob nver said anything with "texture" in this context

[low escarp]

wat

[fresh quiver]

i am confused a bit, could you train to explain it in other ways?
I think some of us are confused here, not me alone

[fringe heath]

Dude looks so familiar to me

[fresh quiver]

Maybe you can find the correct person corresponding to this image? 😂
All of us think he looks familiar. But none of us can figure out from where or who he is

[fringe heath]

To me, it looks too much like Descartes

Trying to find an image of him

Maybe I'm just gaslighting myself into believeng it is

[fresh quiver]

yeah.... about descartes 😅
You can try to find a picture what fits 1:1 for him.
But i think many of us already looked descartes up

[fringe heath]

Can't send pics, but hold up

[fresh quiver]

hairlines on the left side mostly doesnt fit descartes

Feel free to send me them via DM if you cant send any.

[fringe heath]

Sent you a req

[swift mulch]

If you can find out exactly who this is I'm giving you an ultimate battlepass next season

[fresh quiver]

from @fringe heath

he did some photoshop on a regular descartes image...
and as of now i got me a bit on the unsure hand if we might could have been wrong about "it isnt decartes"

[fringe heath]

On it haha

[crisp eagle]

Man it’s close

[swift mulch]

it is, but aint it

[crisp eagle]

Just tell me it’s him so I can have closure. Please

[fresh quiver]

In theory the image would not be only thing hidden to point to this man.
If rob worked as usual he might gave us clues to him beforehand.

i.E. the multiple hints over multiple Images that lead to JBB etc.

[swift mulch]

That would cost me 30 bucks 🥲

[velvet narwhal]

I'm not sure. There are similarities but also differences

[swift mulch]

I really feel like this dude is gonna appear in some painting or something

[stray kelp]

Ah this is why I’m read only. Thank you!

[robust junco]

I FOUND IT

[fringe heath]

no way

[robust junco]

Your right

Its French philosopher

[fringe heath]

Yes... but...

[robust junco]

I want that battle pass please

[robust junco]

What?

[fringe heath]

It's not an exact match

[robust junco]

How

[fringe heath]

I changed the curve of the image, but I'm unsure that that's Descartes

[robust junco]

Mustache, clothing, left eyebrow arch

[swift mulch]

You matched it to his picture, not the mysterious man

[fringe heath]

The nose matches, but the forehead is bigger

[robust junco]

Its the same

[robust junco]

Wdym

[swift mulch]

This is the guy we are looking for

[robust junco]

Oh

Lol then who was the guy I looked for

💀💀😭😭😭sorry

[fringe heath]

lollllllll

[swift mulch]

Someone Malibu though looked quite like him

Haha no worries

I’m not giving the battlepass that easily x)

[robust junco]

Where did this guy come.from

[fringe heath]

From a descartes portrait

[swift mulch]

When looking for our mystery man, these are the biggest facial defining features I have been looking for.

• Thick brow ridge
• Big nasolabial fold around mouth
• Large buccal hollow beneath the zygomatic bone
• Periorbital puffiness below his eyes
• Protruding chin
• His hairstyle
• No facial hair

No examples so far have ticked all these boxes, and we don't know which clues specifically could lead to our guy

[fresh quiver]

my biggest giveaway for this guy is the hairline. especially the prominent edge/corner

no promiment edge/corner = not our guy.

[swift mulch]

If we manage to find this exact picture, for sure! But if it's some "famous" person and we happen to stumble upon a different picture that looks like him then we need to keep a broader eye out

[fresh quiver]

had some of this where other parts fitted.
But havent found any image of them with this edge.

[swift mulch]

Ever pic I have seen so far had some mismatches where I was able to clearly tell it was not our guy

My idea is to find someone where I could be like: this really is him, and then look for different content of that person to find an exact match

But I'm afraid this is not some "famous" guy that has 100 different images of him, and some other clues should lead us to an image or painting where he is a part of.

[fringe heath]

The main issue is the color, which would give us waaay more info

I found an image of Descartes that looks a bit more like our guy, but dunno

Dissun is related with power right?
One of the most relevant families in Europe was the Médici family

[swift mulch]

Correct, where power might also have a double meaning

[lime berry]

not sure if EE or bug, but if you go to customize a weapon and click from Overview to Animations you can spin the camera to see the Finals backrooms

[onyx hollow]

surely a bug but that grey shape & the sphere mesh in the bg are interesting

[rugged breach]

Pictures for reference

[gloomy anvil]

wow haha

[onyx hollow]

inspect the flashbang with light class, it's the size of the Matriarch's bahah

[robust junco]

Those are the backgrounds for lobby

And the sphere must be the camera and its limits for looking around

THE FINALS (@reachthefinals)

Changes are coming… 👀

Full Season 9 reveal this Saturday during The Grand Major 2025, November 29 at 8:30 AM ET / 2:30 PM CET.

X · Nov 26, 2025, 5:00 PM

Well I'm confused.

It reminds me of like a heatmap showing players or something. But it also seems like it might be a clip from a lore teaser. Idk the biggest hint to what it means is definitely the fact Japan is lit up like a Christmas tree

[swift mulch]

I think these are simply just lights as seen from space at night in populated areas

[vagrant mauve]

Yep that seems like it 😂

Idk what that has to do with s9 tho or why Europe has like no lights.

[swift mulch]

I mean Season 9 > Asia

[vagrant mauve]

This doesn't really explain Australia or Africa. Maybe we're getting an APAC region or something? Still doesn't explain Africa tho

[unkempt dune]

have we tried identifying this place in the world yet?

[alpine junco]

china

[vagrant mauve]

Wait... Maybe the video is reversed, and the cinematic will be played to zoom in on a Shanghai map

[crisp eagle]

I think it’s just zooming out from Shenzhen to tell us that’s where the next map is maybe?

[vagrant mauve]

Therefore the new map will be Shanghai?

[vagrant mauve]

Shenzhen is way too far south, it starts closer to Shanghai I think

[alpine junco]

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

[swift mulch]

Ngl i think I been to this temple

[crisp eagle]

I was looking here

[fathom raft]

Anyone know if this says anything fancy?

Can't remember which set this is from but i found it on the rangeline carrier upper back

[crisp eagle]

I'm not confident with my translator thingy, but I got "Failure to connect consciousness"

[fathom raft]

ooo Spooky

[odd sequoia]

I got “Consciousness failure” if it helps any

[maiden sentinel]

I think world tour

[hoary stratus]

Has anyone looked into all of the credit scrolls? They seem almost like an Easter egg in and of themselves, but season 8's didn't really have any lore or leaks that I could find.
Still crazy that this has existed the whole time though, why has nobody been talking about this?

[hot stag]

Has anyone noticed little hats around monico?

While I was playing power shift, there was a little Mexican hat at the bottom of the ladder near the church, and I shot it and it blew up into little coins, could that mean anything?

[unkempt dune]

have a picture?

[hot stag]

Yeah give me a sec

Oh wait, I can't post it

[unkempt dune]

either you can forward it to me or you can send an imgur link

Ursa, Ursa Major? Another hint towards space/constellations?

[fresh quiver]

tbh. "Final Advice" could sound like rob.

[vagrant mauve]

It's also latin for Bear, so another connection to Greek/Rome etc

[light dock]

im assuming this has already been posted but if not here ya go

[granite canopy]

im assuming the "-O" would mean Odilla?

shes mentioned in some other flavor text in ursa's items

[vagrant mauve]

I think most hints point towards 3 main categories, no? We have a lot of connections to the Bible/Mythology, a lot of connections to Space, and a lot of connections to Mediterranean counties. Maybe the trick is finding where they are intersect? Common ground between them?

In approx 23.5 hours we will likely be getting some pretty big reveals (at the major). I don't expect anything EE wise but y'know anything is possible, altho lore wise definitely. Maybe Rob is trying to tell us something? Idk.

If G was D, it could be UPDAT3

G->D is -3 shift

All shifted gives: RMXQ3D

Or can it be “Up at 3G”(g is a gravity constant”)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING
LETS FIND SOME EE'S

[odd sequoia]

Happy Thanksgiving hunters

[gloomy anvil]

I don't know if the constellation itself has any connections but it's certainly intentional as Ursa's lore is all about the Grand Major

[cold heart]

(and Odilia)

[crisp eagle]

oh snap, Ursa Major (Great Bear) is The Big Dipper

61ml is a rather exact number

[velvet narwhal]

There's that IIIIi logo, are there any other logos on it?

[crisp eagle]

looks like that's the only one

[velvet narwhal]

So likely connected to Dissun. Maybe the Early-Talent Program was some procedure with Redstream that turned him into his skin. 👀

[crisp eagle]

is that a Dissun logo? I can't remember

[gloomy anvil]

there's an animation at the bottom of the cape, probably nothing

[fresh quiver]

Ursa major has some interesting things IMH.

1. I think we had northern star / Polaris somewhere back in the days?
   -> the Stellar Configuration of Big Dipper mimics the shape of the "Little Dipper" Dubhe and Merak can be used as the navigational pointer towards the place of the current northern star
2. covers around 1279.66 square degrees or 3.10% of the total sky. third largest constellation.
   -> Pharo SETI died in 1279 bc. (12 and 79) from one of @dull marsh textwalls.
3. Alioth is the brightest star in the constellation with a magnitude of 1.76. (we had 176 somewhere)
4. 47 Ursae Majoris is a Sun-like star with a three-planet system.
5. Some Messier galaxies can be found in the constellation.
6. The bright planetary nebula "Owl Nebula" (M97) can be found along the bottom of the bowl of the Big Dipper.
7. Ursa Major is mentioned by such poets as Homer, Spenser, Shakespeare, Tennyson

[crisp eagle]

what's the golden egg thing on sale?

[fresh quiver]

8: H.A. Rey had a different asterism in mind for Usa Major in his book "The Stars: A new way to see them"

"A new way to see them"
could be read as "Open your Eyes" see it from another angle, direction etc

[snow walrus]

Second one. It has many Xs on that bundle

[crisp eagle]

ok that's what I thought, but wanted to make sure. It also has our Lost spray

[velvet narwhal]

it's on a lot of Dissun cosmetics

[fresh quiver]

OH yeah...

9: As Ursa Major is one of the OG 43 Constellations it is mentioned in **Uranias Mirror" which we got as clue sometime

[velvet narwhal]

[gloomy anvil]

we didn't actually get Urania's Mirror as a clue, it was a theorized connection during T3

[fresh quiver]

In theory...
Something that "is under a hill" could be named a burrow correct?

[fresh quiver]

its just too much after all this time to try remember what was where etc xD

[alpine junco]

61ml > 61 million lightyears > adromeda

[hasty anvil]

61 could be 19 upside down

[unkempt dune]

which connects back to the sun

also the activation password for level 3

it also just so happens 19 is AI

[gloomy anvil]

yeah 19 is a lot

19 = slies + cetacea + asconce
19 = commence + promise + hunt
19 = las vegas + monaco + kyoto (also works with Seoul as the Asia location)
19th Tarot card = Sun
1 sun 9 planets (orbits, heliocentrism, Rob has said multiple times that Pluto is a planet)
19 = AI
1 X, 9 dashes in the "X-Citing Discovery" sticker, that is also shaped like an S, and S = 19th letter

and of course the numerous 19 clues in WRD3HM.png that pointed to the activation password length

[swift mulch]

But Pluto isn't a planet 🙁

People should get over it

My fellow hunters

Will anybody else be watching the grand major tonight

If not, i will (do my best) to be the documenter

Of any easter eggs in the broadcast or the chat

The chat will be my struggle point so if theres someone else willing to help me with that i would be very happy

[sand python]

thank you soldier we wish you luck

[royal geyser]

Ill do my damn best to screenshot any messages that could be easter eggs

I’m expecting cns to be in chat or do some evil things

[white patrol]

[swift mulch]

No, scientific consensus. I don’t make the rules 🥺

[white patrol]

what is science? all I know is saint rob and he said that thing is fun if you know it's secrets

[swift mulch]

Unlike Pluto, he’s right about that!

[white patrol]

Are you saying Rob is wrong? How dare you!! Your execution date is tmr >:3 it's been fun.. I'm sorry

[fresh quiver]

in theory Pluto is just not a notable Solar system planet anymore.
Its still a dwarfplanet which has "planet" in it. So its a Planet.

both happy? good!

anything interesting?

anyone got any good question ideaa i could ask him?

[snow walrus]

what does MW.AREA mean XD

[severe creek]

not really, it overlaid the koi fish, the silhouette of cns, and then their normal splash screen glitched over the gameplay

[hard current]

Ask him there the big WR is 😂

[white patrol]

Tysm!!! <33

[gloomy anvil]

If I had one chance to ask Rob one question, I'd want to know (definitively) if completing level 3 requires going somewhere physically (like finding a Nama Tama in Stockholm or something).

But he probably won't be quick to spill answers to anything.

[granite canopy]

didnt he mention recently they had to hide some physical statues because noone could locate them?

[gloomy anvil]

He said something about it in EkaZoko's chat. "we had to remove the IRL statues while waiting... thought people would find them a months ago"

tbh if I was there, in Stockholm, I'd try to sneak in a mention of that

[snow walrus]

there are hidden figures(golden eggs) in IRL and in-game maps

[severe creek]

I would hope that the irl statues would just be codes

[gloomy anvil]

The thing is that's the only time he's ever somewhat confirmed it. If it wasn't for that message in one Twitch chat, the IRL statues would still be 90% speculation, and there's no way any EE hunter will fly out somewhere to look for something that they don't 100% know is there.

[snow walrus]

there is an eyed message about IRL locations that we need to go iirc

[gloomy anvil]

My theory has been that getting the passwords will reveal new info leading to the IRL statues, and that's why Rob was confident to remove them because we weren't close to finding them.

So we're still on the pre-IRL stage of level 3 now.

But that's just speculation.

[snow walrus]

I believe these are IRL statues

[gloomy anvil]

I never thought of that

they so could be

[snow walrus]

he said in twitch "golden statues" not "golden eggs" so my guess is golden eggs are in the arena and the statues are IRL

[gloomy anvil]

yes, although a golden nama tama does represent a golden egg

and the ones in the arenas are statues

[eternal violet]

this doesnt count? #easter-eggs message

[gloomy anvil]

I see how this message implies there are IRL statues but "on earth" can also be read as just 'not in space', so I wouldn't rely on it as confirmation.

[severe creek]

Rob said this before #easter-eggs message but also could just be about the golden namas in game

[eternal violet]

i would agree with your statement if all rob said was "not in space". but when he says "not in X. its in Y and Z" you cant really say that Y might imply X or Z. everything is stated explicitly.

[gloomy anvil]

I think it's possible to read it as though the two focuses are "not in space" and "in the arenas", and "on earth" is just putting emphasis on the former.

[eternal violet]

well i guess we just see things differently. to me the emphasis and the big bombshell is in the middle of that sentence, as he never explicitly said that before. we already knew the namatamas are in the arenas.

[white patrol]

RHB: Where does Namatama like to go on holiday?
Gets eyed by rob

quite unusual now I think of it, RHB's message doesn't really have any "information" for rob to "👀" react, since "👀" usually means confirmation about something
it can be "hmm interesting question here" and that's it, but I think there's might be more to it

Maybe "like to go on holidays" matters?

Rob replied: Three places, X, X, X
3 X, 3 maps, 3 X marks the spots

Thinking about connecting IRL "Holiday spots" and "google map comment clues" together :3

[hard current]

Definitely probably the irl component

[granite canopy]

did we ever find rob's google account?

[turbid tinsel]

Did new map images get posted in here yet?

[granite canopy]

did they show something on stream?

[turbid tinsel]

Idk if it's legit

[granite canopy]

yea its legit i saw a vid on the subreddit

[turbid tinsel]

I mean like legit as in like a map teaser. I'm not watching the broadcast atm

[granite canopy]

i mean yea it is a map teaser, but its mostly those two screens with glitch effects

we getting the realdeal tomorrow

[granite canopy]

My take on this:
Without finding Rob's google account, cracking this will be semi-impossible. It may be related to the trips embark employees take for research purposes, for example the most recent one in China. If we find one review we could probably find the rest just by the virtue of having Rob's account. Then having those locations we could probably lead it somewhere further but am tired

btw ive checked and embarks office doesnt have any reviews from rob

[severe creek]

https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1394850241295024159 there's this thread with all of the suspected reviews from rob so far

[granite canopy]

just what i was looking for thank u

[unkempt dune]

continuing from this discussion

it seems the company's name is HITAWO as seen in The Evolution of ARC Raiders Ep. 2 (https://youtu.be/ST_fD5NL_pg?si=LbFKpTBEHHOFcEpV&t=1521)

[empty plaza]

So when do we get to put this on the Hunter Community Wiki?
The bit is almost a year old now 🤣

[snow walrus]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_rabbit#Naming_and_etymology

Etymology of European rabbit sounds like "Rob"

Also

Warren" comes from the Old English wareine, itself derived from the Old French warenne, varenne, or garenne. The root word is the Low Latin warenna

The generic name, Oryctolagus, derives from Ancient Greek: ὀρυκτός (oryktos, "burrowing") and λαγώς (lagōs, "hare") according to Swedish zoologist Wilhelm Lilljeborg

[snow walrus]

[vale igloo]

new level 3 hint just dropped

i was talking to rob yesterday at the mingle and asked him about a level 3 hint, this isn’t word for word but it’s essentially what he said

‘I don’t leak, Level 3 is actually really easy, it’s right in front of you every time you start the game’

I’ll try find a clip, I was with Ekazo who was IRL streaming

[gloomy anvil]

found it https://www.twitch.tv/ekazoko/v/2629568771?sr=a&t=4630s

[hard current]

Every time you start the game…

[gloomy anvil]

it's been the compiling shader pipelines all along

[fading vigil]

Loading logo?

Loading art before game opened?

[hard current]

Only thing I can think of is the logo screen with the red gif but we’ve seen that before…?

[fading vigil]

It actually changes every season (in s7 it was ascii/glitched)

[hard current]

yeah so shouldn't be that either

[fading vigil]

Maybe the “flash” when lobby appears?

[hard current]

maybe we should try recording it

[fading vigil]

Omw to try it

Also we never found “menu” EEs

couldnt record, but tried to make superwidescreen:

[hard current]

In the extras section in the settings if you click on each option they turn white and remain highlighted

Not sure if it’s anything but sure seems intentional

[fading vigil]

the smallest size of a window i can get "715*506"

my loading sequence

[severe creek]

I think how he moves his hands when talking about it in the clip is interesting too. he makes two separate hand movements that refer to whatever it is in a slim horizontal rectangle, like words, a button, a banner, something of that nature

[fading vigil]

twitch drop skins are also has loading screen art

[hard current]

Do you have the clip

Jk found it

[fading vigil]

max width of a window is 2933* (using 1440p monitor)

[severe creek]

I've never played on console, I wonder if loading sequence is different to maybe help narrow down what part of starting the game it could be in

[fading vigil]

I think it’s the same, iirc, Rob mentioned that no ee’s hidden in platform differences

So if we have some main menu EEs, it’s not a some sort of text typing

But it can be some sort of Konami code

[severe creek]

that's good to know bc I was wondering if the chatbox could be used as a command prompt too

[hard current]

It wouldn’t be something on a specific platform

Something that’s the same for everyone

[fading vigil]

It maybe can be used, but for some new stuff, bc chat wasn’t from release on consoles

[fading vigil]

Yeah, but now consoles have chat too

Except vaiiya blocking the messages - idk what to do with chat 🙂

[severe creek]

the console question was moreso if a certain splash screen doesn't show for console (like when you first launch it from steam and that loading box pops up) then it likely wouldn't be in that since that's not consistent for everybody

[alpine junco]

❌

[severe creek]

sus body language, I'm saying

[fading vigil]

For me it looks like Doctor Strange opening a portal

[alpine junco]

one more thing

you will "c" it and makes a c with his hand

[severe creek]

can't wait to launch and close the game a hundred times when I get home

[alpine junco]

its like those videos with the red circles pointing out whats happening

[fading vigil]

3 X E

[hard current]

@unborn pilot any thoughts on this?

Hehe it’s nice to see people discussing level 3 again 👀

[dusty ivy]

what about that small box that shows up when you launch the game on pc?
it has seasonal art and some.. things on it?
can't pull up a screenshot rn

[hard current]

Could it have do with the order of the flags up top?

Though that hasn’t always been here either right

[odd sequoia]

I’m on Xbox, what can I do to help?

[dusty ivy]

i think it has some squares that do some sort of loading sequence but i might be tripping

[fading vigil]

Yes, same with arc raiders splash screen

[severe creek]

this splash loading?

[odd sequoia]

We don’t have that on Xbox

[dusty ivy]

yeah that

[hard current]

This is only for PC.. doubt it’d have it

[severe creek]

that's what I wanted to be sure of, that eliminates an entire screen of possibility then

[fading vigil]

So only logo gif while loading

[dusty ivy]

ok would make sence

[gloomy anvil]

iirc the EE level 2 background is somewhat similar to the Major-themed background that appears during launch this season

https://www.reachthefinals.com/tfee-level2

[fading vigil]

What was always bugging me out:
build version on the bottom right corner.
It’s not needed on “production”, because we don’t run different versions of the game. In the phase of development- yes, it’s crucial to check fixes or test new features, and you can tell what “build” is better.
So why we always has that “big” version build name?

[odd sequoia]

What does yours say?

[severe creek]

I looked at that too, the build number, as is at least, isn't the password

[gloomy anvil]

By 'the password' do you mean the one needed to access https://www.reachthefinals.com/tfee-level3 ?

[odd sequoia]

Mine on Xbox

[hard current]

No Rob knew we were talking about level 3 not the activation

[severe creek]

yes, worth trying since he's saying it's so easy

[hard current]

This is versioning

[gloomy anvil]

sliescetaceaasconce

[severe creek]

y'know, I knew this...but it's been a long day

[fading vigil]

Yes, it what’s the sense to show it in prod version?

[hard current]

Yeah that stuff’s been around forever

Changes with updates and such

[gloomy anvil]

do you mean the one that appears in-game?

I imagine it's there so Embark can identify the exact game version from clips of bugs and exploits etc

[odd sequoia]

I don’t see the harm in checking

[fading vigil]

When in game - it has different code, I think with “server/session” id’s

[gloomy anvil]

there was talk some time ago of another version number that only appeared during the splash screen, but I can't remember what that was

[fading vigil]

CL999555-6C3B8EFC-BK4232

Middle part looks like hex:
6C 3B 8E FC

CL can be for “CLient”, and BK - for BacKend

[hard current]

anyone want to hop in a match?

I think a golden nama might be on bernal

not sure where exactly, but I think the leek map might be pointing there...?

[odd sequoia]

I thought we were almost positive it’s Kyoto and Vegas left?

[hard current]

it could be but I was wondering if maybe it has to be real life locations

i.e. we know specifically IRL where in the cathedral area tha golden nama is in monaco

so bernal could be a safe bet?

[odd sequoia]

Kyoto and Vegas are real places irl too, but anything is possible yea

[hard current]

yeah but kyoto afaik isn't based on a real life location in kyoto

it's a reimagination of an old kyoto

[odd sequoia]

I’m going based on this

[hard current]

true there is that too

[odd sequoia]

The one on Monaco looks like the middle one

[hard current]

mm could be...

[odd sequoia]

So I’m assuming the other two would look like those, and probably fit their locations

While not as big, I’d love to see the volcano on Bernal get solved

[hard current]

I wonder if we got this wrong btw… it almost sounds like Rob says “every time you start A game”

I.e. a new match?

[odd sequoia]

Who wants to dissect loading screen clips frame by frame?

[hard current]

My guess is it’s either immediately upon load of THE game or when loading A match

[odd sequoia]

Just like the intro screen, the match loading screen has changed over time too. Some parts anyway.

[hard current]

How can Rob say it’s easy 😭

[odd sequoia]

Well, we need to determine what’s never changed. Although…I guess if it’s hidden text or something it could’ve just been incorporated into whichever new loading screen it could’ve been put it..

I hear “start the game” for what it’s worth. But I guess even then, a match could count as starting the game.

[gloomy anvil]

Unrelated to recent topics. I suspected it for a while but I'm now fairly certain The Aggressor bundle was an early clue at the Monaco Golden Nama Tama.

• Xs everywhere - X marks the spot
• "Lost" - Lost Nama, Lost Legacy
• Statue with eyeline marked - Monaco Statue looking at Nama
• Descartes mask in the bundle - Nama is wearing this mask
• ☉ - can be an egg & yolk (as well as Sun, orbits, and more)

It makes me wonder if the other cosmetics that follow this distinctive style (like the Easter rewards) point at the other Golden Namas.

[odd sequoia]

This is a great idea! We should look at outfits related to what the other 2 statues are wearing

[severe creek]

actually, I was thinking about this and with the potential of up to 9 passwords and then potentially being connected to locations based on the world map, I wonder if it could be hidden in each individual maps loading screen if that makes sense

[hard current]

I think IF there’s something on Bernal it has to do with the 4 bells on the tower of the church

Periodically they’ll ring x amount of times

I destroyed all four and haven’t heard them ring since

[odd sequoia]

So, I guess this is a bit off topic but I took “start” literally and went to the credits and sat here and read the entire scrolling message (I’m watching it a second time just in case) but man, we don’t deserve Embark 😭 they’re really amazing

[hard current]

Yeah that whole credits this time around is in the style of old demo scene stuff

Old school stuff from Rob

[odd sequoia]

But the message is so sweet!

[hard current]

Bernal Bells -> doesnt seem to be a pattern, however I did notice that if you’re standing in between all four bells and move around during their ringing they’ll stop ringing

Can confirm bells stop ringing when destroyed

Dumb theory but for fun

-> we’ve searched high and low on Vegas for golden nama, think jt might be in eastwood because of the old map

-> map leads you to vaults, all with 2 key olaceholders

-> 2 people needed

-> get a coin? A token? Something to activate slot machine (iirc Rob hinted that the machines can be activated?)

-> win jackpot, win golden nama?

@white patrol

The golden nama just doesn’t appear to quite be visible in Vegas… not without triggering something…?

[white patrol]

I think we are still lacking in terms of figure out clues/information to make out a solid guess, so I am looking things up :3

where can I find the eastwood blueprint?

[hard current]

My current guess is that the golden nama just isn’t available outright in Vegas

[hard current]

Rrrr I forget what it was called… let me see if I can find it

[white patrol]

Vegas and the whole S1 is very Rob heavy imo, probably the only time Nama tama give out clues in trailer

Vegas/S1 gonna need some heavy investigation

[hard current]

I tagged you in the markup #1202362203920150610

[hard current]

@white patrol I’m out of ideas for now 🙁

[white patrol]

Yes I saw, thanks dev!

With "Markup plan" and "steal the spotlight" OST with police sirens go off, I am thinking about "heist"
https://www.esquire.com/entertainment/tv/a37016468/heather-tallchief-roberto-solis-heist-netflix-now/

In the sense of a heist, spotlight might also mean the spotlight from a helicopter?

After some search, found out in 1993 there's a couple, a girl from New York named heather and a guy named Roberto Solis stole 3 million dollars from a armored truck
Some people see them as Robin Hood who beats the system

It's called Circus Circus hotel heist (relation to east wood hotel?)

On October 1, 1993, less than two months after she’d started the Loomis job, Heather Tallchief drove away in her armored work vehicle with three million dollars inside while her co-workers were inside the Vegas hotel Circus Circus loading up the ATMs. She drove to a storage unit where her boyfriend Roberto Solis was waiting, they transferred the money into their getaway car, shipped it to Miami in boxes, and drove to the airport where they hopped on a chartered airplane in disguise. After zigzagging across the country to throw off the police, they wound up in Miami for some time before eventually flying to St. Maarten, all while evading FBI capture.

It seems they just drove away the armored vehicle with 3 million dollars in it, which makes me think of this scene from Alpha trailer, A cashout station inside a moving vehicle or something (Image 1)
Not sure what to make of it, but it seems can be somewhat relatable :3

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

this is the hotel

[gloomy anvil]

The Cashout station in the alpha trailer is actually being carried by the player, it used to be a feature in those early days.

[white patrol]

oh sick I didn't know that :3 thankies raid

[buoyant nymph]

Any new breakthroughs in the last week?

[gloomy anvil]

no way another Dusty

[buoyant nymph]

Hey, that's been my name since 8th grade

I'm not changing it now

[vagrant mauve]

Ok but you have to get the real Dusty to let Rob leak some stuff for us

[hot sphinx]

EU / PC, I have the same string

[buoyant nymph]

I can’t promise that but I can try

[buoyant nymph]

Dusty did nothing

All yall really want is dusty

Reduxung herself to some meager force

[odd sequoia]

If you look at the Eastwood blueprint and follow it the way it’s intended, it has you crashing through the window to those deposit box rooms. There’s an overhead sign saying cage (where all the money is kept iirc) which to me sounds more like a heist.

So maybe we start at the X and find clues to where the statue was left after a “botched robbery attempt”?

Keep in mind Vegas also used to have a built in security system in the early days

[royal geyser]

Cns in the major

It appears to literally just be “C N S” in japanese

CNS MAJOR STREAM

[low escarp]

we see that on nozomi too

[royal geyser]

I didnt know that my bad

🫡

[royal geyser]

More cns

And scotty beatboxxing

[vale igloo]

surely all the cns stuff leads to something

[royal geyser]

Ill be honest, its just been reused cns images so nothing so far

[vale igloo]

yeah

but hopefully it ends with cns hacking the majors at some point

[gloomy anvil]

These gloves from Easter follow the same style. A tally of 7 on the wrist strap. 3 Xs on each glove. "LOVE" and "HATE".

I would say the circles on the knuckles kinda look like location markers but those are on multiple gloves, so probably not.

[fading vigil]

YOOO
New map -we saw it leaked in s6 or s7!

[severe creek]

that map is gonna be crazy packed with stuff

[buoyant nymph]

I said some ramble about the e-egg not having a full "texture" the other day

I meant that Rob mentioned the final goal wasn't certain even to them

Was more a chase about a metaphysical hueristic

That theme might explain why it's tough to nail down the practical directions. Though we should definitely have level 3 by now lol

[timid gale]

I think O is for Odilia

[royal geyser]

Shit youre right

On the major stream

Scotty: “this reminds me of 2081. Remember when Odilia and Ursa clashed?”

#📕┇lore message

[granite canopy]

scotty and june voicelines at the major credits

[spark sigil]

does this hint to there being a possibility of them adding Esports players as voices and faces?

[opal pond]

I asked Rob for a hint, He said he wrote it and that it’ll be online soon. But people have found it apparently

Makes me think its on a banner from the audience

I’m looking around the venue now to see if I can find it (if its here)

[snow walrus]

people have found what

[opal pond]

A hint rob wrote

I have no clue in what form it is/was

[snow walrus]

this one maybe?

[opal pond]

No I think thats just the skin you get for attending

I went to see but there were only the xp, fcar and tomorrow the m60 codes

[snow walrus]

hmm

[gloomy anvil]

did he imply as to whether or not people who find it will know it's an EE hint?

[opal pond]

No

[plush magnet]

hello again, does anyone have the CNS whiteboard that spells out their name

[rotund prawn]

Talked to Rob last night. He's a little disappointed in our ability to not surpass lvl 3 😭

[sleek stratus]

This alleyway we've seen it before right? wasn't it in early footage? trying to find it currently

[snow walrus]

I'm also disappointed he's not alone :D

[hard current]

Bro we are utterly lost 🥹

[crisp eagle]

Might be thinking of the Monaco alleyway on the early trailers

[crisp eagle]

It hurts so bad. I feel like if we could just figure out what MW or mma or especially just one dang password then we could figure out what's even going on

Right now it just feels like he took some history books and just ripped out random pages

[royal geyser]

We need more hints

[exotic kestrel]

just noticed that the song "and the winner is" has a part around 2:20 where the audio spins, like it goes from left to right ear, maybe symbolizing the rotating platform idk

[surreal sinew]

I have gotten some info from rob about hidden item codes in a place that everyone sees but no body has found yet but im not sure if i wanna share or just keep grinding out the way to find it and get it first and share it

[daring aurora]

That everyone sees? I instantly thought about the main menu

[surreal sinew]

yeah thats what i thought i asked him and he seems he raised his eyebrow and smiled so i belive thats correct to some degree im seeing dots on the golden finals logo that kinda shift in and out while the gold moves might be related to those

maybe overlaying every frame with the dots might spell something out

[daring aurora]

🤔

[surreal sinew]

u think this is anything u can try to do

heres the video

of my first load after getting this info

[royal geyser]

If youre asking me to open the game i actually cant bc I’m visiting family for the holidays 🫡

[surreal sinew]

no but you see how on the gold its like patternd what happens if we overlay all the paterns maybe it spells something out

[royal geyser]

I’m dumb as a box of rocks

[surreal sinew]

relatable YO anyone with some video editing knowladge able to do this

@vapid hull ur alright att editing u think u can try overlaying all the frames and the patern in the metal of the logo

Wait might be hidden numbers in the loading screen this here kinda looks like an 8 and i saw smth else that looked like a 4 before

and this here kinda looks like a 5

'

and this looks like a 7 (the green and blue are what kinda looks like the bar that people sometimes put on 7's but might just be smth random)

[woeful cipher]

https://tenor.com/view/seems-a-little-extreme-official-south-park-pandemic-s12e10-gif-22776163

[vapid hull]

?

[surreal sinew]

above i sent a video with the loading screen the golden logo has texture im thinking the dots might map up to smth if u get em all overlayed

[surreal sinew]

yeah but hey he said its smth in the loading screen sooo i mean im looking

[vapid hull]

I have no idea how could I help with this...

[surreal sinew]

well can u rip take each frame out 1 by 1 so people can mark out each dot and line

like split up the videos frames into individual photos

[vapid hull]

I'm a video editor... not a video researcher.

[past karma]

I was rewatching the season 9 reveal panel, and the LABABADIBIDIBIDOBIDUM has caught my eye. Most likely a real nickname of an Embark employee, but who knows

their profile picture is a stylized hollow knight OC, I think?

[gloomy anvil]

It's the same animation used for the TFEE Level 2 webpage background (extracted video 👇)
https://www.reachthefinals.com/tfee-level2

I don't know if this animation has been on the loading screen for a long time or only S8

In S7 it was purple and glitchy, so not then

If I had to guess I'd say they reused the animation because it fits the aesthetic of the Major, and because it was created for the Level 2 webpage, Rob knows there's something level 3-related in it.

[inland hemlock]

purple like you!!! omg!!!

[inland hemlock]

smart (it also looks rad)

[gloomy anvil]

a bit higher quality

Some of the glass-looking cubes merge into each-other

and there are the two pointed out earlier that have a center

[hard current]

it looks like... maybe there could be letters

I remember us analyzing this a while ago though I thought

but that seems to be what maybe rob was talking about with launching the game?

[alpine junco]

what if it's just 3, 3 finals logos, 3 main things

[turbid tinsel]

Did we ever figure out the best place to find stars in Vegas by chance? Just randomly been looking at old stuff

If not, there is the Vegas walk of stars that starts a the Sahara resort.

And in regards to best spot to see stars would be a desert, which The Sahara is an actual desert and its name is used in Vegas

Food for thought

[alpine junco]

MW.AREA
Medium Wave Area
Europe, Asia, Africa 9 kHz
North and South America 10 kHz
19, again

[hard current]

actually this might make some sort of sense

MW.Area seems to match to Medium Wave Area

what it means here though... couldn't say

[gloomy anvil]

huh

[alpine junco]

Something about connections and same frequencies

Being able to communicate

[hard current]

maybe? but we haven't had any L3 clues that seem to point to radio/frequencies

more stuff towards geography, hex, etc

[alpine junco]

I was refreshing the lvl 3 page and find it weird it displays finals red then glitchy interference

[alpine junco]

Kinda?

Medium wave propagation makes a triangle

Only thing related with triangles is pyramids and 3

[hard current]

I was looking at the coordinates again, specifically NW

one of them... Saint Pierre and Miquelon

Portuguese explorer João Álvares Fagundes landed on the islands and named the island group they were part of the "Eleven Thousand Virgins", as the day marked the feast day of Saint Ursula and her virgin companions.[14]

[alpine junco]

Idk if this is on the miro board or noticed but have we thought that 1 = STS-88

[hard current]

Ursula*

[hard current]

in what way?

[alpine junco]

FIRST space shuttle mission to the ISS

[hard current]

I think actually someone did mention that a long time ago maybe

[alpine junco]

I want to be sure

it is right in front of us

Black Knight Namatama was the FIRST image to lvl3

Why would we have coordinates and then more coordinates and then even more coordinates

[hard current]

whatever these passwords are... Rob seems to think it's so easy that we haven't had any new clues in what... a year?

something probably staring us in the face again but we just can't connect the dots

[alpine junco]

Kinda funny, sts-88 was flown by Endeavour which had a servial number of OV-105
ovios
obvious

Also

Ovios is a genus of moth

“The Noctuidae, commonly known as noctuid moths or owlet moths, and their caterpillars as cutworms or armyworms, are a family of moths. “

Noctua meaning little owl

ovo

[hard current]

who was I talking to earlier about Robs clue on twitch saying that there's something right in front of us as soon as we start the game

is this it... did flex just point this out like way ahead of time?

[alpine junco]

And that word only showed up on the anti cheat splash screen

[hard current]

hm... doesn't seem to be a password

[gloomy anvil]

somehow this is the first time I'm seeing this

[hard current]

yeah... I don't think we ever found anything with it

[alpine junco]

I noticed no one replied to Rob questioning the big ee hunt link

[hard current]

I tried it in all the password spots, no dice, both motu and mutu

[alpine junco]

Hmmm

🤔

[hard current]

I'm looking over the spreadsheet

there's a ton of eyed stuff that we never did ANYTHING with

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tfveK-QScK3a7dr9LxGxIuFiw89nhoUxJvbfwCkMgXU/edit?gid=411951774#gid=411951774

another vegas clue that got eyed that we never looked that hard at

[alpine junco]

thats what im now just realizing

[gloomy anvil]

So that confirms Rob has hidden at least one clue in a splash screen before. I recall yesterday the splash screen was mostly dismissed as a possibility because it's PC only.

[hard current]

current launch screen

[gloomy anvil]

is that the G=6 binary?

[alpine junco]

also noticed someone mentioned morse code on the patch note page and that didnt get any reaction. was it already solved at that time?

[hard current]

could be but it's way too small to fully tell

[hard current]

where's that

[alpine junco]

#easter-eggs message

[hard current]

it could be W but... no where further to go with it at that time I guess

[hard current]

I have it open in GIMP but way too pixelated

[alpine junco]

season 7 patch note

maybe it's just old news

[gloomy anvil]

could someone get the main S8 keyart up? I'm on my phone. I just want to see if the binary has changed or not

I don't have link to it :/

oh yipee

[alpine junco]

it did

I can't view them, don't have photoshop 🙁

[gloomy anvil]

[hard current]

it's still G=6

010001110011110100110110

[gloomy anvil]

Rob did say we never solved that

so hm

[hard current]

wasn't it just pointing to something for a password

trying to recall

[alpine junco]

going through all the patch notes and it seems like the "morse" is accidental

[gloomy anvil]

G=6 was relevant for passwords back then, but also Rob said this much later #⚡┇the-finals-chat message

[hard current]

hurts

[alpine junco]

gg

[gloomy anvil]

everything hurts

besides the leek charms

[hard current]

I'm pretty sure the leek charm is pointing to a golden nama but I can't make heads or tails of that map

[unkempt dune]

One of the only aspects of the loading screen that's been consistently present throughout all seasons is the loading animation for the icon for THE FINALS. There's always been something about it that interests me.

[alpine junco]

i always thought it was one animation not two

[unkempt dune]

as in one line instead of two?

[alpine junco]

yeah, as if it was a light reflecting

[hard current]

I know a while back we got eyes for the launch date of lost in space

we didn't do much investigation past that

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_Centauri -> where they were supposed to launch to

a planet here, and this isn't the first time a triple star system has come up... rob mentioned theta serpentis a long long time ago

[unkempt dune]

One thought I've had about this animation is that it could be showing a separation of lines/shapes that could be used to form an X (besides VV for something like W).

the other thought I had is that they remind me of two mountain peaks

if you separate them a bit, you can see that idea more

[unkempt dune]

which reminds me a bit of the AKM Vault Hunter Set

[unkempt dune]

I also find it mildly interesting that the platform of interest from Las Vegas (#1292576119849095210 message) also has a holographic version of the icon above it.

[hard current]

can someone else look at this

feels like I'm... close to something but my brain is frying

we had clues for 1-24, and previously 1-18 in old puzzles

it's all just... hex?

[hard current]

in case anyone wanted to do more analysis on this thing

my brain hurts. bedtime

[crisp eagle]

Which image is that from again?

[hoary stratus]

I don't have the exact timestamps, but the "Shocktopuze" player card background that was part of the Blast Off Sour Core Twitch drops set was actually seen all the way back in the closed beta trailer.

Just a few frames about 10 seconds in

It's a little different but nearly identical in composition

[surreal sinew]

Thanks man

Il take a look after I come back from DreamHack imma try to get more info from rob

[surreal sinew]

Ursula makes me think of ursa the contestant maybe connect

[surreal sinew]

Maybe the dots in the gold finals logo that we all see when booting the game

[surreal sinew]

Maybe the 82 on the Odin skin is spesificly chosen and means smth

Was the text on the vest ever looked att

[onyx hollow]

for a few frames there are some white pixels left behind by the effect?

and some other distortion by the bottom left pixel?

Appears to be “Read Top of Memory” command?

[snow walrus]

we already cracked sys 64738
but i noticed here as mentioned "cold start"

[hard current]

Don’t think so

[snow walrus]

not sure if these can be called by a terminal but they are basically operations located in ROM

[hard current]

Should go in game and try to type them in 🥹

[snow walrus]

type where

on credits amiga screen?

[hard current]

Maybe there too?

[snow walrus]

Your inputs are ignored there

[hard current]

Iseult wallpaper for level 3

[gloomy anvil]

btw here's the S8 lobby background, in case Rob was referring to it

[hard current]

Wait what are these

They don’t look like shadows of anything

And if they were I’d expect them to be identical on both sides

Look like symbols?

@gloomy anvil

[gloomy anvil]

I'm not sure really

[snow walrus]

it's the AMIGA logo

[woven pendant]

Has anyone looked at the sound from the end of the grand major? Was there anything in it?

[snow walrus]

Finals running on AmigaDOS ?

We knew
Paula Denise Agnus
but ever Alice chip mentioned?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amiga_Advanced_Graphics_Architecture#

Agnus replaced with Alice
Denise replaced with Lisa

[crisp eagle]

so is that the order they released? the image you have above

[snow walrus]

they are different chips for different purposes

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

[hard current]

Agnus chip has two other parts -> Blitter and Copper.. ABC 🥹

[crisp eagle]

we got AGNUS DENISE PAULA from the sticker BYTE BUSTER it looks like. is that what you meant when you said we knew them?

[snow walrus]

I meant this was sent before
#easter-eggs message

and yes that too

I'm re-checking the miroboard by putting AMIGA on center

[fallow agate]

Aye more Latin

[crisp eagle]

yea specifically spanish for female friend

[hard current]

Only thing I can think of from Robs twitch clue is it may actually have something to do with the hex in the version tag?

[crisp eagle]

as in a friend who happens to be female. not like romantic girlfriend haha

[hard current]

6C 3B 8E FC

18 15 84 25 56

That’s what I assumed lol. That’s how I use female friend

[gloomy anvil]

The middle of the version string changes all the time

[hard current]

Ah ok

[snow walrus]

AGA has a pixel type called Chunky.. reminding me chunky wr

more names: Andrea, Mary, Linda, Monica

The “single’* AAA subsystem consists of one each of the four AAA chips. This example
system uses video RAM, which is certainly the preferred implementation. Andrea controls this
VRAM and the chip bus. The 32-bit parallel port of the VRAM connects to Andrea and the A/D
bus (register address and all data go across this bus). The serial ports of the VRAM connect to
Linda, which handles all the video fetching, under Andrea’s direction. Mary connectsto the A/D
bus and to various I/O ports, such as audio, floppy, and serial. Finally, Monica connects to the
other side of Linda, the A/D bus, and to the video output (digital or analog)

Mary is updated version of Paula

[surreal sinew]

Maybe we should

Maybe smth with the nozomi citadel ee

[hard current]

Ah but this level started well before nozomi/citadel

[surreal sinew]

No asked it was specifically the loading screen so we need to deep dive it hard

[hard current]

Wait where did he specify the loading screen?

AFAIK he just said every time you start the game

Could mean splash, loading, or even lobby

[crisp eagle]

I thought he had just said it's somewhere everyone looks but hasn't seen

[surreal sinew]

Yeah the reason he told me bout the loading screen was cus I asked if he ever hid any item codes in it since it looks similar (like the email codes not a secret code for the ee didint ask bout that)

[hard current]

https://www.twitch.tv/ekazoko/clip/AnimatedAntediluvianSandstormPeoplesChamp-NtiXojn9Lwc7x4Wt

So you’re talking about conversation you had with Rob outside of this clip?

[crisp eagle]

so it's a level 3 clue specifically

[surreal sinew]

That might be why it’s taking so long he never said that all the steps for the ee are in the game yet

Like take vault hunters ak as an example

[surreal sinew]

No a private convo me and him 1 on 1 att the major yesterday

[hard current]

What did he say specifically…

[surreal sinew]

Yes

Maybe he means splash and lobby but he did specify the loading screen as in he used the word loading screen

[hard current]

Yeah I mean like… what question did you ask that pinged him on the loading screen, something about level 3?

[surreal sinew]

This is what happend

That’s what prompted him to tell me bout it

[hard current]

What did he say specifically about the load screen?

Sorry it’s just with Rob we have to know specifics before we go off on a wild goose chase

[surreal sinew]

He said that there’s some code in the screen idk if it’s a skin code or ee code or smth like that as always he’s very vague

That the code is staring att us as we load in

[hard current]

@unborn pilot a clue about something regarding level 3 every time we start the game, and a separate conversation where Rob implied a code was hidden in the loading screen

[snow walrus]

Amiga 500 promo video (1987)
VS
Finals Lore cinematic

[crisp eagle]

man it's gotta be that logo Atsuhiro posted then. Rob even gestures to his right. that Finals logo is always bottom right as it's loading

[snow walrus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaRkacQ-YMg

[hard current]

Can anyone get a clear video of the loading screen?

[surreal sinew]

Maybe

[hard current]

I’m away from pc rn

[surreal sinew]

Same I’m currently onm home after dinner with thiixy and the podium

[inland hemlock]

the loading logo has always been jittery for me, is it like this for everyone else?

[crisp eagle]

yea mine has never loaded smoothly

[inland hemlock]

could it be intentional?

[snow walrus]

no ring but its material seems similar

[gloomy anvil]

I'm confused, I thought pyoid asked for a level 3 hint and Rob said the thing about starting the game.

Where did he specify loading screens?

[snow walrus]

ballerina

[surreal sinew]

This has nothing to do with pyoid this info I gave was from a 1 on 1 conversation I had with rob att the major if u scroll up u can see some more context n stuff I gave

[light breach]

Did anyone check the match start for any clues? Like u know when u start a match and u and ur team start running then the screen flashes white. What if something is hidden in plain sight but we never actually paid any attention to it because it became so repetitive that u just don't bother focusing on the pre game animations.

[surreal sinew]

Maybe and how bout the new transition

[inland hemlock]

there are a couple of white pixels in this

prolly nothing but still

just artifacts im guessing

[snow walrus]

a dolphin facing towards the sun

[unkempt dune]

I personally don't see the white pixels, but it's a recreation of the loading screen from in-game

[low escarp]

i see some cooking is happening

[inland hemlock]

it's been mentioned one other time by Tom, and may have been overlooked.

STS-130 (Endeavour)
Tranquility (Node 3): contains environmental control systems, life support systems, a toilet, exercise equipment, and an observation cupola.

Both Space Shuttles used for these missions were named after ships used by James Cook who attempted to discover the NW passage. We've discussed some of this before, but wanted to provide a little more info I found in case any of it means anything to us. Just more connecting of NA, EU, and AS

[odd sequoia]

From the Xbox version (it’s worth noting Xbox doesn’t count the splash screen as game content and doesn’t clip it)

[surreal sinew]

also a duck maybe connected to monaco ducks? is there dolphins in the bay?? prolly far fetched but lets be honest what here isint far fetched

[crisp eagle]

The dolphins are from SYS$HORIZON sunset condition EE

[fringe heath]

I'll take the first frame (as soon as the golden logo appears) and check in photoshop

[surreal sinew]

ik that but what if they went away

[odd sequoia]

If there’s anything I can do to help, let me know

[surreal sinew]

someone sent the backround as all the frames

but i mean for them to get it with the logo

the level 2 backround

[fringe heath]

What do u mean?

[surreal sinew]

@gloomy anvil can u do the same but with the loading screen with the gold logo since i want to see if the dots on the gold texture spell anything out and @fringe heath @odd sequoia

[gloomy anvil]

I don't, the video I sent is from the level 2 page so just the animation itself.

[surreal sinew]

yeah i needed the gold bit

[fringe heath]

That video is a bit pixelated :////

I'm thinking now, doesn't everyone's loading screen always freeze for a second? Would that be random or is it maybe on the same frame as the video sent by @odd sequoia ?

[odd sequoia]

That would be interesting to look into!

[odd sequoia]

Does this help?

[crisp eagle]

I think it only does it on PC primarily

[fringe heath]

Nope, cuz that video is from xbox

[fringe heath]

this one also freezes

[odd sequoia]

Yea it’s done that as long as I can remember

[fringe heath]

In the black loading screen

When fiddling with the levels, you can see a white square in the top left of the image

[surreal sinew]

i want to try to overlay all the dots withing the gold and see if it has smth to do with it

[fading vigil]

It can be morse code frame by frame

[onyx hollow]

which dots are you talking about? these like smudges in the texture on the logo & text?

[hard current]

I feel like some level of layering and flipping might reveal something?

[dusty ivy]

i actually had like a transmission from space (my sleep paralysis)
did you guys consider that "every time you start a game" can mean an in game tutorial? 🤔

[odd sequoia]

I can’t hear anything other than “start the game” not “a game” but maybe that’s just me?

[onyx hollow]

Looking closely & there are flashing grey bars behind the logo of the initial black loading screen, what’s that about lol

[shy oracle]

i always thought the 3d graphic on the side of the big center The Finals logo is supposed to be mirrored/stitched together like how you'd undo a reflection by mirroring and inverting it

side note, the start up reminds me of the OG xbox main menu. the idea of a huge vast space was so eerie and sick at the same time

Anyone have the codes for the leeks weapon charms? I dont know the code but do know the ee

Like I said this is not the clip that the info is based on it’s a 1 on 1 conversation I had with rob att the major

[craggy girder]

Nice

thats what im thinking or one big thing of morse code cus there is textureing on the gold as the reflection moves around we gotta mark each one and see what it makes

message right above here

yo anyone who has accses to the miro board can someone add the information i obtained from rob about the loading screen we gotta focus this cus its the most direct hint we have got in a long time

a pretty strong inplied since when i asked if he meant in the loadin screen if it was hidden he smiled and chuckled we are getting close we have to be but what are we missing

[surreal sinew]

does anyone understand this or care to check the metadata and format it in the same way we did for the isult wallpapper

was this the only source for the picture or is there another one

[surreal sinew]

The one that got deep dived on the Miro bord on level 3

Im not sure rn which Infos we add to the miro.
Atleast I know we add clues we got from connections etc.
Unsure about Statements from rob which were told in persona

[surreal sinew]

That was me who had them told I can clarify later or answer questions about this but yeah rob definitely did a nice lil leak I think he was fine with saying that since he said smth like that on some stream but he was more specific with me about it so now we got a big hint that is very clearly aimed att the loading screen and maybe splash but not everyone gets the splash and he said everyone (and also specified loading)

PSD file should be in Press drive

what do you want to add to miroboard exactly

[surreal sinew]

The leak that rob gave me about the loading screen I wrote more info about it above if u just put my name in the search thing I started talking about it on Friday

[crisp eagle]

This?

[fresh quiver]

Do you perhaps have it perhaps word by word what he said?

As robs Word and sentence structure is sometimes/often important

Also:
When we find new images like the one you posted rn, we mostly do a quick search/scour if we find anything on these images.

I do have a quote ”no there is no direct item code on the version code but there is a code hidden staring everyone in the face when they launch the game somewhere in the loading screen”

[surreal sinew]

Ok it’s been a long time since I did ee stuff took a break cus life got a lil busy wish I found more back in cb2

[surreal sinew]

That was start of it but very poorly phrased and kinda a mix of me asking about version number and what he said I just first wanted to know if it might be useful

[surreal sinew]

Where’s that sorry Its been a while since I dabbled in ee

Nvm I found the press kit

[sand bane]

Guys BTW did anyone find the physical Easter eggs?

[surreal sinew]

I had a very silly idea but what if you get the files for the finals to run and hook it up to the amiga 500 what would happen imagine if that unlocked smth most likely no but who knows how far rob will go

[sand bane]

Rob said there are irl stuff at Dreamhack

[surreal sinew]

I didint find anything aside from info with him I was not aware of this
