easter-eggs

[copper glacier]

seems to just be fallback stuff tho

of the same thing

[proven harness]

Yeah im not seeing a visual difference, is there any audio shifted?

[fading vigil]

How you got them?

[copper glacier]

They're all using different codecs

it's probably just fallback in case something doesn't support it

[copper glacier]

I have a plugin to download videos

and "inspect" the files

[little portal]

ballistic... lots of ARC with ballistic

[proven harness]

Yes that is what I said

[little portal]

such as wast Hornet or rocketeer

i think it is in Kyoto

[fading vigil]

IMO, you’re digging the wrong way) I know that thread is big and hard to read, but it will give you the picture of a way we did, hence you joined in the middle

[copper glacier]

Seems like there is thunder in the background at 14:24:30

[little portal]

but，why this gadget can make sounds.

[copper glacier]

also rain seems unusually strong

might be something to do with weather

[copper glacier]

I'd have to check that with someone tho

but I don't know if it can rain like that on kyoto

[little portal]

rain？where？

[proven harness]

Yeah ive been playing tbis game since beta and genuinely dont think ive seen it rain on kyoto

[copper glacier]

you can hear drops

[little portal]

This sounds like a musical instrument.

And I didn't see any raindrops falling in the video either.

[proven harness]

The musical instrument sounds like the belly drum emote

[copper glacier]

It's pitched a bit higher in the emote

nvm it's not

It's the exact same

just checked

[copper glacier]

can you hop on rn?

private matches on kyoto

[proven harness]

Can u gimme like 20 min?

[copper glacier]

sure

[little portal]

wait guys，Look at the unit on the far right of the timer in the lower left corner.

why 50＝1s？

not 100？

[copper glacier]

it's 50fps

that's normal

[little portal]

and，why in 23s

they back 15s

[copper glacier]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[little portal]

03:14:23:00→03:14:15:00

[copper glacier]

we already figured that out

[little portal]

sorry i don't see it()

[copper glacier]

Also

is it normal for grenades to go this hard?

looks like hell

[elfin sage]

National Air and Space Museum Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in virginia

Enola Gay who dropped nuclear bomb in japan is here

Are CNS tryna nuclear bomb The Finals lol

[proven harness]

Got completely distracted, are you still needing help?

[azure sinew]

any body try to see it in 3d?

[alpine junco]

still trying to figure out what the 4 letters are on Vegas

[crisp eagle]

I believe we solved this part already

[alpine junco]

first password for NA is 4 letters, and the theory for the total of each 3 passwords being 19 seems possible, then the same thing could be applied to EU and Asia

[azure sinew]

what if you just go there, do the same, use same emote with same claping sound?

[white patrol]

wait this sound 🥁 🥁 🥁 🥁 🥁 🥁 🥁 are from the tanuki set (Japanese raccoon dog) IIRC but I am 95% sure it is

[white patrol]

it's a emote where contestant knock on the stomach

[little portal]

you're right

a emote

[white patrol]

yep it's this one but idk if this connection is already discovered :p

oh it seems to be the rocket raccoon clue in #1471198829117309135

[boreal sleet]

is that even a thing to do DEEPSET Research for this EE ? i mean should we do HEX, even e deeper cryptologic analysis ? did embark people even make the EE that Deeper ? bro this is interesting. coz this EE in Swift Blades Puzzle Chat feelslike more deeper than ENIGMA MACHINE WORL WAR from germany in the paast

i mean, What If the EE is just A simple thing ? and Embark just Laught at us coz how Deep we do the research that mybe has nothing to do with the clue XD

[maiden matrix]

I was honestly thinking about Enigma Machines as well, some of the patterns look like instructions for rotors and stuff..

[maiden matrix]

I wish I could see this "something simpler"

[boreal sleet]

coz I see even the Code translated to MIDI, Hex and other things XD

just saying bro

[bleak socket]

I gave no idea where yall are with the website puzzle but I found something

[copper glacier]

uhh sorry

[copper glacier]

yea

it is

[white patrol]

Swift blades EE is a separate EE created by Plume (an Embarker), our main EE (The Finals Easter Egg hunt ARG) are considered "the most complex easter egg in Gaming" (the EE creator's own words)
so do expect EEs in the finals to be hard/complex

[crystal lion]

did we get a date out of the osp uze video at the end?

[maiden matrix]

Double check here#1471198829117309135, but do tell us!

[proven harness]

No worries. Im available now if u still wanted to check kyoto

[trim ravine]

That's because IMO this is directly related to EA opening it's Gothenburg sweeden studio, which later went on to become Embark (technically)

I'm callin it now, we're gettin a Sweeden map in s10 that's gonna be near the Embark studio irl lol

Vaiiya truly are masters of criminally inept security

[regal flower]

so i just watch the Clench your thirst vod and in the small print as the end says something about "The persistent belief that something important has already been missed"

[heavy urchin]

WOW that just happens tho -.-

[proven harness]

We get to destroy embark studios in game let's gooooo

[trim ravine]

immeddietly ignores the objective so he can pyro nade the server room over an over because of the riot nerfs

[proven harness]

Destroying the servers in game shutd the actual servers down

[trim ravine]

my god..those brillant bastads found a way to make their bad servers into a game mechanic... not even mad. im impressed

[jolly trout]

just jumped in this, got everything out of wpn, didnt knew its already discovered

was there smthng in the cctv file?

[crisp eagle]

You'll have to chat here for now until you level up to 2, but you can check out the thread we have for this puzzle to see our progress so far
https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1471198829117309135

[jolly trout]

oh cool, got the img without evenm knowing all of that.. i got only the login and passwd

but i thought that maybe the dotted line could be morse code, if u crank the exposure on that the line consists of morse lookalike

i cant attach images here

https://imgur.com/a/LTTF1Z2

the beggining is like -/--./-.../...-/..-/-.-./-..

which goes into T G B V U C D

ill try to do the whole thingy

[lofty tusk]

I have a question for EE people, can EE hints be hidden on in-game skins? earlier today I was taking screenshots of the OB twitch drop revolver skin for a friend and noticed the POP. POUR. PERFORM. slogan was incorrect and will always display a wrong slogan with how the cylinder cycles and I just remembered in the OSPUZE promo ads there's always the text at the bottom of them talking about how the sequence needs to be respected, I assume it's just a oversight on embarks part but just wanted to put it out there

[jolly trout]

-/--./-.../...-/-.-./-../--./.--/.--./---/.--/.--/-../.-../..../....-/..../--./---/.--/.--/.--./--./---/.--/.--./--./.../.--./--./---/.--/.--/--./---/..-./..-./..-./-.-./-.--/..--/.--./.--./---/--.

T G B V C D G W P O W W D L H 4 H G O W W P G O W P G S P G O W W G O F F F C Y Ŭ P P O G

that 4 and Ŭ looks out of place

or im jsut seeing things XD

also the cctv timer is 3:14 and loops back at 3:14:22?

Or of O was a break it could be

TGBVCDGWP WWDLH4HG WWPG WPGSPG WWG FFFCYŬPP G

Or not, that could be entirely false

[zinc trail]

i dont see a morsecode. Do you have the correct image because the one on imgur looks compressed

[jolly trout]

i do but cant upload it or point as i cant attach images here

if u take the last word from that log file, the "recÑ3ã¸y÷í9Ôÿ4ÓRÚj븹xZjYPr" and remove funky letters u get "rec" and "3y94RjxZjYPr" which was once pointing somwhere on yt, maybe the song mentioned?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3y94RjxZjYP

[crisp eagle]

I think you're right about it being an oversight, but yea we've gotten a bunch of stuff from cosmetics!

[jolly trout]

i sent it to you via dms, with the things im seeing there

[lofty tusk]

thanks for answering!

[sonic rock]

I can't talk in the Swift Blades thread, but the novel Phantom of the Opera was released in 1910, the same year Christina Nilsson turned 67

[crisp eagle]

Nice find! I forwarded that

some of us are bouncing back and forth between this and that thread. We can solve this dang thing, everyone!

[jolly trout]

so, if the password to wpn is ballisticarc maybe the answer lies in the arc that the nade takes in the cctv recording

[crisp eagle]

yea it was, we've solved past that cctv video. it had something to do with bold numbers in the video that were the circumference of a circle I believe

[jolly trout]

also what about memories.zip in wns? i cant access it for tghe love of me

[crisp eagle]

I think that's currently the password we are trying to solve now

[jolly trout]

what command works for that?

[crisp eagle]

I don't know how to navigate the terminal very well. You have permission to talk in the thread now, though.

[jolly trout]

i guess its externall outside from help commands

[crisp eagle]

I think I remember them trying to use "mount"
something like that

[jolly trout]

mount is used for the folder containing the graph

[jolly trout]

also the checksum gives oscar=xray, was this used somehow

[crisp eagle]

yea I don't know haha someone else in that thread will be able to help more on that front than me. I don't know computers beyond opening games and wiki

[jolly trout]

oscar=xray gives nato alphabet vibes

which could lead to o=x

[crisp eagle]

we used O = X earlier in the hunt before reaching that terminal. I can't remember if we had to use it again after getting there yet

Plume has also given us a bunch of extra clues in messages to help us along, so we might have skipped some steps by solving the hints she's given

[sonic rock]

From Wikipedia: "[Nilsson] is widely believed to have been the inspiration for Christine Daaé, the heroine of Gaston Leroux's novel The Phantom of the Opera. Towards the end of his life, Leroux claimed the character was based on a real opera singer "whose real name I hid under that of Christine Daaé", and details of Nilsson's early life heavily reflect details in the fictitious Christine Daaé's history, even to the point of using ideas and language from contemporary reviews of Nilsson's performances in Faust in 1869."

[neon burrow]

And the song.

[jolly trout]

how does one access it?

[neon burrow]

"mount D4dphxCQcJAFLSMtEqJ+ogEJBwk=" places the song into the audio/ directory.

[jolly trout]

xcq is rickroll ending XD

[neon burrow]

on YouTube?

[jolly trout]

yea

[neon burrow]

Intersting, that's funny.

[jolly trout]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

thats the link

i got it memoriesed after all these years

[neon burrow]

That's pretty sick.

They've found some beeps in the song that are listed in the "Swift Blades puzzle" thread and are trying to solve using that information right now.

[jolly trout]

its all leading to pi number i think?

the song length is 3:14 the cctv time is 3:14

[crisp eagle]

the beeps ended up pointing us to Christina Nilson and now to Phantom of the Opera

[neon burrow]

Ah, I missed that part, thanks.

[crisp eagle]

it's easy to do! A lot happening faster now haha

[jolly trout]

the log with the graph folder have "do you listen to anyhting these days"

and the famous line from opera is "listen to the music of the night"

fits really close imo

also ive seen some red boxes in the chat, while phantom insists for keping box 5 empty

3438:3135 is the machine id

which is hex for 48:15

maybe thats the timestamp

is there official phantom of the opera version?

or chapter?

[crisp eagle]

48:15 is the timestamp in the avengers movie where Thor shocks Iron Man during their fight. It pointed us to arc

[jolly trout]

okok

[maiden matrix]

run bin/decompress memories.zip

[crisp eagle]

You're finding a lot of stuff really well on your own

[jolly trout]

yea ive got it now, what about signal?

[jolly trout]

ive loved to solve these things when i was younger, and also i love the command line vibes

[zinc trail]

We probably need another user login or just dead end

[jolly trout]

but, the decompress also gives auth error without path to memories

or not

[crisp eagle]

you mean signature?

[jolly trout]

signal exec in bin folder

[fading vigil]

split my idea, beneath all the stuff with swift blades.
Remeber the Waterdance video, where Rob says about the elevators?
123 - is a floor in some elevators in game.. seoul at least has two elevators with 123 iirc

[zinc trail]

It just puts out an error where it asks for one file that can be decompressed while signal says no rights to run the programm

[crisp eagle]

I'm betting those helped us point to 1:23 = AiW or just the overall 123 theme we keep having in The Big Whoop

[fading vigil]

so we need to dive rabbit hole deeper..(

[jolly trout]

so like all of the header from the site was used somehow already?

the path, signatures etc?

[crisp eagle]

for the most part, yea. i can't remember them all off the top of my head.
and some we kinda skipped because Plume gave us more hints to help push us along

She made this pretty brutal for her first one haha

signature was a word starting with b that contained 9 letters and a word starting with a containing 3. that was it's hint which pointed us more towards the password ballisticarc

[jolly trout]

the musical ends with "the final lair" which is funny

given we are in the finals

where did the login came from then?

or what does wpn stand for?

[fading vigil]

aslo, you know what i noticed? Rob said that there is something that will grow over the seasons?
season to season, i see that the WALL around fortune stadium becomes bigger..

[crisp eagle]

Oh weird. I haven't seen that. I also thought he was talking about the Roses EE growing over the seasons

[sand badger]

i just got into the terminal, how far are yall into it? I'm looking for the memories.zip pass and skimming through logs to maybe find a clue.

[maiden matrix]

Welcome! Check#1471198829117309135

[crisp eagle]

I’m seeing a lot of new names, or names I don’t recognize, and I’m excited about it! Welcome, new Hunterz! Just wanted to sling a reminder to check out https://discord.com/channels/1008696016318513243/1100745453206786078 if you haven’t.

vc perms gg

[sick hemlock]

Guys, the clue '37235' in the swift blade puzzle has the 7 in italic

[crisp eagle]

yea we think it's pointing us to the word Phantom
The (3) Phantom (7) of (2) the (3) Opera (5)

[sick hemlock]

But since the 7 is italic, do you think plume is highlighting that particular word 'phantom'?

[crisp eagle]

please don't spam to level here. or anywhere

[regal flower]

is there a @ for EE Hunters???

[sick hemlock]

Guys has anyone tried resonaphantom as the password for memories.zip?

[fading vigil]

Yes, and it’s not correct (or I could make a typo)

[sick hemlock]

Dang

[sharp flame]

kinda.. why do you want to use it..

[white patrol]

I don't think there is, you can @ee mods but I suggest don't ping, if there's findings just post it here, you can dm me if you can't send images and I will send it for ya

[regal flower]

was for a video but i can post vods at the moment do to my LV. its was going over the Red Power Gens for the Rose EE

im in a VC if anyone wants to go over my findings to maybe fill in some blanks that have been already been found

[hard current]

Whatever you’ve found is highly likely brand new, outside of meta clues we haven’t found anything in game outside of the practice range roses

[steep girder]

why does the time stamps get changed randomly on 7 seconds

[unborn ledge]

password for memories.zip is ph4ntom

[fast coral]

[fast coral]

did the password work?

i can't post there either sadly

[unborn ledge]

yes it worked
https://imgur.com/a/efIi30H

[eternal violet]

good job 😄

[fast coral]

ah man wp for figuring it out

fr great job

[harsh violet]

Great work!

[regal flower]

so the Area Power Gens like the yellow one in the Range there are about 4 of them per map but they are Red like a rose and there's always one place left were all the light are on like the forest on Monaco (unless im blind and there one in the forest) but i have a feeling the last place turned on might be the place were a rose might be?

Wat you found in memories? I want post it on us channel

[rigid robin]

https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/62d66fa29e72c560f8efc020/63f1aa7b-ce9a-40e8-8c7f-28b6d05fe8a3/tuesdaypartyplace.png

and the text file contains

poem_of_the_day
ls
ls bin
cd bin
run signal --user resona7 --privileged

Running that command on signal then asks for a 7 digit pass code

typing poem_of_the_day brings
Dire debt, dear dealer defiantly dying
Dare, freedom bandits I sing

[regal flower]

so i think the area gens are powered by nitrogen so removing them = less nitrogen (Nononono, I never leak, but I would use less nitrogen, and more potassium and phosphorus.)

[fading vigil]

poem_of_the_day changes every day. we had such "clue" when only found a wpn-x-program page. the top line was updated every day, while we was solving that stage

[rigid robin]

it actually changes every day 🙁

[fading vigil]

Day1:
Prayer, demise came whereupon me
helpless…, do I longer be
Day 2:
Dire debt, dear dealer defiantly dying
Dare, freedom bandits I sing

[rigid robin]

did you ever find the 7 digit passcode?

[fading vigil]

we just came to this part of ee literally 10 minutes ago.

[rigid robin]

Oh, I thought you knew more about the poem of the day cus of the memories 😄

I wonder if the 7 digit pass code changes every day with the poem then

[fading vigil]

memories.zip was solved 30 mins ago)

[rigid robin]

How did they get the password being ph4ntom?

[fading vigil]

a4 was "missing" note, a=4 in l33t, maybe

[sonic rock]

Were those alien/UFO cosmetics related to the Swift Blades EE? They might be relevant since the asteroids seem related to the "UFO galaxy"

[sonic rock]

It's probably nothing, but if you look at the Tuesday Party Place image and the Highscore image, the chairs sort of line up with the three asteroids near the middle if you squint

[rigid robin]

Also tuesday party place is on Bernal which is 7 letters

6

_< my bad

[stone grotto]

How about 2181352

[rigid robin]

I tried that

I tried multiple different mathematical things to get 7 digits as well involing those numbers

but now I'm wondering what the number in the corner represents

x1258978-13996

is that like the computer or device running the game?

also tried to mount the number in the corner with no cigar

ls

[rigid robin]

I also think it has something to do with poem_of_the_day.
Because in the history, someone typed that in... then looked for the bin folder then used the signal. There could be something in the poems that say what the 7 digit code for is that day... or worse yet.... Tuesday's poem is the hint

[fallen swift]

To this

However this might help

[boreal sleet]

How Did You All figured that Memories.zip wich is ph4ntom? I must say GG

[lament pivot]

Do you have anyone to play with? You can send me a private message

[half anchor]

Phantom was an easter egg in BF4.
Bigfoot/Yeti also.

Maybe the Kyoto video is a bigfoot clue? (He's playing the bongos).

Phantom program unlocked the bow (weapon x).
...finals.com/wpn-x

bigfoot/cryptid are both seven letter woRds.

[crisp eagle]

The Kyoto video was solved days ago. It’s just fresh for most everyone else. We’ve been working on this puzzle since feb 11

[still horizon]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_of_Cornwall Ummm...there's someone called Iseult in this (the husband of Mark of Cornwall)? Could this be anything or nah.

[unkempt dune]

Tristan and Iseul-t are intentional connections to the authurian legends to some degree. Both of them are companies found on Seoul.

[fading vigil]

Holy.. a month.. for me it like we started a week ago

[hasty light]

Hi guys, I noticed this with a friend today. Is this anything that has already been looked into?

The lights turn off when you approach them. Can't seem to find this anywhere else on the map.

[crisp eagle]

Interesting! If it’s been mentioned, I haven’t seen it either. I think we have a Bernal thread somewhere you could check or add this too. My dumb phone won’t let me copy pasta threads for some reason. Probably user error haha

[regal flower]

Cornwall in a username I didn’t think I’d see this 😂

I live in this annoying part of the uk 🇬🇧

[sonic rock]

Maybe we should order the asteroids based on the order in which they were discovered in real life?

[fading vigil]

At least we need to solve the idea of asteroids, but keep this in mind:)

from this image

[sonic rock]

That could be something, but AI is against the rules anyway

[fast moss]

it was just a math

I already tried every possible date and nothing to get that PIN

[sand badger]

i was already there, with a more one dimensional vision

[fast moss]

why is it different color tho

[regal flower]

so whats this EE all about at the moment looks kinda fun

[sand badger]

after discovering the password for memories.zip, we found high.png in the zip file. I did a small recap in the channel's thread if you wanna catch up a bit: #1471198829117309135 message

[regal flower]

ill have a look into it

[sick hound]

I noticed this today as well. Inside church on the C2 zip. Since bernal picutre was in the x program website maybe there's some correlation

[fast moss]

can it be something with this? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/62d66fa29e72c560f8efc020/63f1aa7b-ce9a-40e8-8c7f-28b6d05fe8a3/tuesdaypartyplace.png

[hasty light]

It's very closeby to this if I remember correctly

[sick hound]

it's opposite side of the map, your clip and the pic

[regal flower]

can i DM you as i can't posts images at the moment in here?

[sand badger]

yeah sure

[waxen linden]

The Cords are Kashgar China or 9024 Prince William Street in Manassas which is a Mexican Fastfood Place/ Farmers Market

[rigid robin]

It could be you have solved it already and its a answer for another question after the "poem of the day" code... For instance, It could be that the answer is what ever asteroid belt 503 refers to.

aka Evelyn could the answer to a question we haven't been given

I 95% believe tuesdays poem holds the answer for then 7 digit code

[fast moss]

just reminding what the poem is

[rigid robin]

That is mondays poem

[fast moss]

There is a lot of D in that poem, must be something with it

[rigid robin]

I was looking at it for like 2 hours last night and couldn't crack it 😢

I'm gonna give it a real good go when the new poem is released tonight/early morning.

[fast moss]

oh so the poem is changing every day?

[rigid robin]

Yes

it was "Prayer, demise came whereupon me
helpless…, do I longer be" on the first day and "Dire debt, dear dealer defiantly dying
Dare, freedom bandits I sing" on he 2nd day

[sand badger]

We get a new poem in 3 hours.

no wait, it's central time

[rigid robin]

but the 7 digit code is 100% related to the run signal command.

The History.txt shows a process someone went through via commands.

They typed "poem_of_the_day" to get the poem... then navigated to run the signal command. So its 100% linked

[sand badger]

5 hours central time.

[fast moss]

yep exactly

[sonic rock]

There are exactly 7 words beginning with D in the second poem

[sonic rock]

Can't post images here, but are we sure that triangle underneath the table in TPP isn't significant?

[storm robin]

@fast moss the thing you highlighted in the image isn't readable in game either

[grave lodge]

how can i have perms to type in the WPN x program thread?

[storm robin]

You need to interact in the server until ypu get a specific role

[grave lodge]

ty!!

[regal flower]

around level 2 you'll be able to comment takes a good few messages

[grave lodge]

sweet sweet

im just going tin foil mode on the bernal image rn lmfao

[regal flower]

hahaha im doing the Practice range roses

i might watch Ready Player One just to get my Easter Egg brain chunking away

[grave lodge]

i have the bernal image inverted and adjusting its sharpness and im just staring mouth open trying to see any slight differences lmfao

[sonic rock]

The sign on the heater definitely looks to be different between the image and in-game

[grave lodge]

yeah when i inverted the pic its slightly easier to read but its still hard

i also am trying to think if its more like

oh its a table for 3

table 4 3

i keep coming back to that line of thinking but idk its kinda nothing for the step were at

[regal flower]

Roses EE: this is weird blown up the Practice range area Gen for the 3rd time and the lights are still on but brighter

and flickering a little bit

[waxen linden]

What if You have to do stupid Shit with the Ingame Events Like Meteor showers on Bernal

[regal flower]

not gonna lie but that not a crazy idea

[grave lodge]

asteroid....

[waxen linden]

Can you Force them to come to a Certain Spot

Yeah but a Meteor is the Stuff that comes from a Asteroid to the Earth

[regal flower]

Aaaaa i just got rid of the Gen and the lights went off and turned back on!!

There is the Letter A all over the Area with the Table from the Picture

Looks always Like This

[sick hemlock]

is it possible to know when the bernal image was taken?

[fast moss]

all metadata from that image

[grave lodge]

wait hold up if the images metadata has 1998/2/9 as the date

2/10 is a tuesday

2/9 is a monday

could it be something with 2/10/1998

[sick hemlock]

I was being stupid

sry

[grave lodge]

haha no sweat

its year month day ya?

[sick hemlock]

Yup

[fast moss]

i have it opened just throw some numbers

[grave lodge]

i mean 2101998 is seven digits but i tried and it didnt work but idk if the bernal image is some kind of key for the asteroid image or what

[fast moss]

invalid

i think the date is not when the image was taken but when that sRGB format was made

[grave lodge]

GOTCHA

im dumb

[sick hemlock]

make sense

[sick hemlock]

Guys, for the bernal image, is it possible that it was 'taken' on a Christmas before 2010? Since the WPN was last updated on 2011

[half anchor]

Embark's advised us that examining metadata is not necessary to uncover easter egg clues.

[grave lodge]

i cant talk in the thread but theyre talking about the comms tower from subnautica and its a radio tower

[waxen linden]

So we need to find a Frequency ?

[grave lodge]

could it have something to do with a spectogram

i put the tuesday image into a spectogram and got some wacky results

cant send the results but toss it in here and see

https://nsspot.herokuapp.com/imagetoaudio/

and the image it spits out when you play it back in the analyzer lowkey looks likesomeone holding a sword?

i might be nuts

[sonic rock]

i think we all are atp lol

[grave lodge]

lmfao

my work day was solely dedicated to this rabbit hole

[half anchor]

Has the persistent noise which is audible after destroying the generator within the practice range been analysed?

[grave lodge]

i wish i could send the image i got out of the spectogram here

its wild

[waxen linden]

Send me dm I can post

[grave lodge]

its probably nothing but my brain rly thinks it looks like someone holding a sword lmfao

[waxen linden]

Insane ear pain

"Bled against, I bear whiteness bluntly
Artery, artistry ever hereafter terribly"

New Poem of the day

All the poems have had some reference to death

Have we tried dying at that spot on Bernal

[ornate quarry]

is this related to anything?

[fading vigil]

oh... old stitches hurts

[fading vigil]

this is a part of "Big whoop" the global, big EE in The Finals.

[ornate quarry]

ah ic

[grave lodge]

Is the newest poem talking about blood cells

References to bleeding, bearing whiteness bluntly (like a white blood cell) and arteries

Letter/wordcounts for PotD have been posted, how about syllable counts?

2, 7
2..., 5
16

2, 9
1, 6
18

3, 7
3, 11
24

[rigid robin]

i could be wrong here

but they all follow the same format... so possibly... they are actually all part of a singular poem?

Prayer, demise came whereupon me
helpless…, do I longer be
Dire debt, dear dealer defiantly dying
Dare, freedom bandits I sing
Bled against, I bear whiteness bluntly
Artery, artistry ever hereafter terribly

[half anchor]

Someone @me tomorrow, if the 4th PotD syllable count is: (3/4,8)(2/3/4,13)

[half anchor]

helpless…, do I longer be
Prayer, demise came whereupon me
Dare, freedom bandits I sing
Dire debt, dear dealer defiantly dying
Bled against, I bear whiteness bluntly
Artery, artistry ever hereafter terribly

Mathematically corrected sequence.

Has anyone seen my medication?

[rigid robin]

Weird how the first poem rhymes the last poem rhymes the 2nd one doesn't

Also I bear whiteness bluntly,

Is a weird phrase, it could be whiteness... but the term is normally I bear witness...

[half anchor]

"I sing" and "dying" rhyme.

[rigid robin]

I guess, doesn't feel right though

Also

The h in helpless isn't capitalised when the rest of them are

[silk wolf]

Any London Magazine subscribers here?

Or know of any archives for it?

I was looking into them and I found a poem that interested me because it mentions delphiniums

But I’m pretty sure it wasn’t the full poem

[rigid robin]

I think

I found 2 things that mean we need to rearrange the poem or something

han its just a hunch on the helpess one, the 2nd idea was my bad

Just the helpless not be capitalised... and the dots at the end...

helpless... sounds like it should be at the end of a sentence. Which works in the first poem. but when you put them all together...

Prayer, demise came whereupon me
helpless…, do I longer be
Dire debt, dear dealer defiantly dying
Dare, freedom bandits I sing
Bled against, I bear whiteness bluntly
Artery, artistry ever hereafter terribly

It is the only start of the sentence that breaks syntax

Like the helpless makes no sense gramatically either, why would you put a comma after a ...

It doesn't fit there.

[sick hemlock]

Funnily enough, the first characters of the asteroids form high.png from something like HELP SS

[turbid lintel]

How far along are we now, I guess the question is just did it get solved? I have been out of the loop for WPN-X

[sand badger]

Nope, WPN-X is still not solved. I made a small recap here after memories.zip was unlocked: #1471198829117309135 message

[turbid lintel]

Thanks!

[half anchor]

If you swap the lines in PotD1&2, the syllable counts follow a pattern.

Anyone willing to party up to have a look around Bernal?

If you give me a about 30mins I’ll help

[half anchor]

I should be in bed by then. Appreciate your offer. 🙏

[dawn coral]

what does this mean for us....EE dead in the water?

[inland hemlock]

The Hunt will go on, Rob stated that even if he died we could still solve it.

[safe gorge]

Man without the 👀 the hunt will be impossible

[snow walrus]

He was here to make things easier for us. It is technically possible to solve the easter eggs with in-game clues.

[fresh quiver]

We don’t got that many eyes in L3.
He told us we were on our own for L3. Now it really is the case

[hard current]

I mean… not really? We’re all just sort of.. unsure where to go next

Wait… Rob is gone?

That’s.. genuinely really sad news @sharp flame am I blind where was this announced?!

Oh.. Twitter… no bueno oh

[dawn coral]

it's a sad outcome, especially considering this "The investigation did not substantiate the allegations, but we found the situation unsustainable and mutually agreed to part ways with Rob"

[royal geyser]

We are fucked

[fresh quiver]

We can ofcourse move all this talking to #1201288968562552863 as we are almost everyone talked about it there.

Please just keep in mind that we have not an official statement from Embark yet.

[hard current]

Let’s try to keep this chat clear of it, head to #1201288968562552863 ?:)

i know this might be a weird time as you are all working hard on the W.P.N EE but if any OG rose hunters are around i might of found the magazine i have posted my findings in the thread

[gusty kraken]

rip unistalling....

[half anchor]

The "A" in tuesdaypartyplace might really be denoting an arc

If we look at it that way, do the radii point to anything important?

Also, did anyone examine the glitched text in the clench your thirst commercial?

[potent elk]

do we have any info yet? like of what next szns ab?

[sonic rock]

The subnautica communications tower was pointing us to the radio alphabet this whole time 🤯

[static pecan]

So, if Rob left... Is the hunt over or.... He's the one behind the EE hunt. So i don't know

[snow walrus]

The webpages are still active and nothing is removed from the game. You can still hunt if you want to

[potent elk]

[unborn ledge]

Posting here once again cause I can't post to W.P.N. X Program.

Might have something on the poems... the words are always 1-9 letters and there is always a comma after the first or second word. By counting the letters and minding the commas, I got coordinates that 4 out of 4 times landed very close to caves / archeological sites.

just some thoughts:
Echo Cave? https://www.google.com/search?q=echo+cave
Bats?
Cave-dwelling bats use echolocation to map and memorize their routes through the passageways. Once a bat knows its way through a cave, it will use echolocation as a reminder of the way. Echolocation is an energy-expensive skill, so bats use it mostly while hunting, to lock onto a single target while in flight.

Is anyone hosting a custom on Bernal ATM?

Technically.. Rob has said it before, this entire thing can be solved without his input, the roses, the big hunt, all of it

HAIII FYSICS!!

[harsh violet]

Great find!

[fresh quiver]

Is that half a feather?

Think it might be good that we forward it into the thread 😄

[regal flower]

im just gonna forward some bits from the Rose EE Tab

[regal flower]

im now looking around W3 England

[hasty light]

Actually a genius omg

[regal flower]

we do have a bat in game

[rigid robin]

So, we got a zelda cosmetic and a batman cosmetic? Damn embark speedrunning law suits this season 😄

[sonic rock]

I don't see how the two unrevealed bits of TPP could be anything but Beta and Foxtrot, especially with Plume admitting her Bravo/Beta mistake. But I don't really know how the radio callsigns for ABCDEF actually give us any workable information lol

[quasi veldt]

Yup, exactly

[sonic rock]

Do we have confirmation that there are only six clues hidden in TPP? Or are we still missing one?

[quasi veldt]

When we solved two, Plume said 4 more to go

other than that, no confirmation

but it seems that there are only 6

[fading vigil]

Did anyone tried already to break frame by frame this teaser?

[vagrant mauve]

I did notice there's a box shaped shadow that passes in front of the S10 text

Reminds me of a satellite

Perhaps passing in front of the sun, creating the shadow

[maiden matrix]

Total space vibes

[fast moss]

didnt see anything

[fast moss]

yes i downloaded the video and didnt see anything

[maiden matrix]

Oh, ok, didn't get that

[fast moss]

i might be blind tho

[proven harness]

Ok so im very out of the loop on Easter egg progress, has it been solved or whats the current status

If the season 10 teaser is indicating a space theme, then MPN could mean Multi-Planetary Network

Unless we already figured out it means something else

[maiden matrix]

You mean WPN?

[proven harness]

Yeah im stupid

My dumb theory is gone now lmao

[sonic rock]

No such thing as a dumb theory atp

We are firmly in the "throw stuff at the wall and hope it sticks" phase

[proven harness]

Wider Planetary Network idk

[maiden matrix]

Yes, I'm actually thinking about words to replace Multi and keep your idea going

[fading vigil]

since 2024)

[sonic rock]

LOL

[proven harness]

Warp planetary network, widespread planetary network, world planetary network all could be other acronyms idk

[sonic rock]

So we basically have 3 sources of info right now

The poems, which led us to caves

The Tuesday Party Place image which led us to the NATO alphabet for ABCDEF (most likely)

And High.png, which references a bunch of seemingly random real life asteroids

No shortage of clues

[half anchor]

Outside of networking, wpn is typically a abbreviated form of "weapon"

[quasi veldt]

Weapon X reference has been raised before

[sonic rock]

It feels like we're missing something obvious

[half anchor]

A laser would be cool

[sonic rock]

[regal flower]

... there a google reviews

[crisp eagle]

I missed this. Do you have the message? I assumed we didn’t figure out the poems yet, but I’ve missed a lot today

[odd crater]

this dosnt look like the texture of the gold and plat ranked rewards?

[white patrol]

yes it does look like damascus steel pattern
I have no idea what it mean tho

[half anchor]

Resembles more closely a reflection of topography.

[full plinth]

it seems the classic tf chrome, not a new thing
(I dosent mean we cant deep into it but it here since a long time)

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[vagrant mauve]

It doesn't look like damascus imo but rather more like a weld

The damascus textures in the game are a lot more distinctive

[odd crater]

hum i feel like its the same XD

[vagrant mauve]

But do you see how there's highlights on the ripples, implying a kind of raised wave rather than smooth surface?

[white patrol]

oh yeah you're right :3 I remembered it wrong

[odd crater]

🤷

[half anchor]

"A" reflection colour deviates from string

Does the light source translate laterally?

[quasi veldt]

It's got a bit of that damascus finish

do you remember if this was fowarded and feathered?

[white patrol]

well there should be alfa acta next season

[soft socket]

That's what I think it indicates.

But I do not think it indicates Space, for sure.

If it does, then why did this picture, from seasons ago, not indicate space, but the same visual elements do now?

(unless inconsistency ofc lol)

[white patrol]

makes sense :3 (also cool pfp!!)

[soft socket]

Thank you very much! It's from m#🌟┇videos-content message

[boreal sleet]

OR MYBE S10 IS RETRO THEME

[soft socket]

Retro is usually indicated with the sunset theme

ill grab a pic 1 sec

[crisp eagle]

Reasons it could be space:

1. The possible Cthulhu hint from the OSPUZE ad
2. pibblix thinks it would be cool
3. I don't like lists with only two things on them

[soft socket]

All the retro stuff was accompanied by the sunset vapourwave theme as far as I remember. ^

The ONLY time we have seen these elements before, was the Alfa Acta season.

[boreal sleet]

mybe, coz the last store update was Alien Costume

[sonic rock]

It wasn't feathered, but Plume did say "good find!" if you scroll a bit down from it

[crisp eagle]

oh noice! ok thanks, friend!

[half anchor]

You're thinking of vapourwave.

The string in wpnx might be AR CADE

[soft socket]

yus xD

[surreal sinew]

I love vapor wave XD

[half anchor]

They_are_not_the_same.json

[soft socket]

I have no idea what you are talking about and there is no evidence to the contrary

;P

[quasi veldt]

Don't think they'll make Season 2 again, they've got many more genres to pull from

[proven harness]

yeah you definitely arent wrong, I think you have a point with everything you say here and also in response lower in this chat with the picture where you state "If it does, then why did this picture, from seasons ago, not indicate space, but the same visual elements do now?" is also potentially right, but i have a response. Before i can give that response, can you jog my memory for what season that image is from?

[proven harness]

this is the one im referring to

[soft socket]

I'm not sure, I think it's the season Alfa Acta came in, but could be wrong and it could be earlier. I'd have to check the dates it appears online and then what season was out at the time, I think, to be sure.

[vagrant mauve]

I mean it could be that Alfa Acta just has to do with space

it would be quite the rug pool to tease something as cool as a space season and then give us US Military-Industrial Complex parody season

[proven harness]

alright, well I would position that the fact the new teaser immediately made a ton of people speculate space, and IIRC nobody thought alfa acta season 6 was going to be space themed. Some key elements to why, related to the "stars" in the background

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXAi3wbSMco

[soft socket]

My WILD HOPIUM theory, is they theyre about defense, (bunkers with nukes, miniguns, alarm systems) and that extends back in time... To Medieval times.... ALFA ACTA THEMED CASTLE HERE WE GOOOOOO lol

[vagrant mauve]

I would doubt this 🤣

[vagrant mauve]

Alfa Acta does give off Cold War esc vibes I could see an Alfa Acta - Space Race - Cold War themed season

[proven harness]

The stars in the teaser emulate movement seen in a lot of other media, i picked no mans sky for an example but you can also look at how star wars does lightspeed warping

[soft socket]

Yea, I think this is also a strong possability. They borrowed an old theme and are re-using it to evoke space now. When not before.

[soft socket]

They act the same in the old seasons footage

Check the video here #🔴┇media-chat message

There's 2 pics, and then a vid.

[proven harness]

on top of that, season 6, the alfa acta season you are referring to, was a futuristic season with the new Fortune Stadium map coming. The silver lettering and purple lighting on the new emblem seem linked to "futuristic" as weve seen in the game over time

[soft socket]

In the vid, the stars act the same way, they act that same way in the other examples I remember.

[soft socket]

This is a good point!

[soft socket]

But also, this ^

[lone wave]

It's hinting to a space opera imo, so no cold war etc

[proven harness]

last thing id argue for it possibly being a space tease is the very explicit sunlight/sunbeam reflections off the lettering, seen CONSTANTLY in films and media depicting sci fi space stuff

[soft socket]

Similar fonts/styles

[lone wave]

The tune playing too

[proven harness]

yeah i mean i think we can for sure conclude its futuristic

[vagrant mauve]

America kinda futuristic theme yeah

[soft socket]

If it's not a red herring away from space to something else, I am deffo convinced its retro-future space themed :)

[vagrant mauve]

s6 BP reminds me of "futuristic" but like if it was 1990

[proven harness]

do we have any indications it is themed around America?

[fast moss]

thats what they have in china now

[soft socket]

I just have a strong feeling it's a red herring, they are being consistent with the theming, and it didnt mean space then and doesn't now.

[vagrant mauve]

what s6?

[proven harness]

no the new season

[vagrant mauve]

no we dunno anything abt s10 outside of that teaser

[proven harness]

your right, medieval season!

[soft socket]

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[proven harness]

ok never mind i thought you were talking about the new season my bad

[soft socket]

Alfa Acta themed castle, knights, finals me up baybeee

[proven harness]

i find alfa acta to be the literal least interesting sponsor in the game right now in terms of cosmetics ngl

but thats just my opinion

[lone wave]

We know how much the sound team loves Justice's music... We're gonna be spoiled with an insane soundtrack lol

[soft socket]

Just wait till we got Alfa Acta branded: knights, and peasants, an wizards, an maidens, an witches (we need moar), and cannons on map that actually do something to the castle, and a lute emote, and a robbin hood skin, and the dagger and sword skins, and princesses and saints and a lil mini dragon that sits on your shoulder, and a skelaton skin but made of actual bones and you explode into bones rather than coins and omg omg omgomgomgomgomgomg

[vagrant mauve]

I mean space is equally cool to castles imo

[soft socket]

okai tru but we been waiting for medieval for SO LONG

[proven harness]

space is way more interesting, just because im a nerdy ass engineer and space exploration is amazing. That being said, i love playing games that have medieval stuff in them A TON as well

[white patrol]

alfa acta is related to "tradition", then we have Ospuze ad "peasant to space", maybe there is a possibility for medieval 🤔 or combined with another theme

[vagrant mauve]

space is more interesting to me cus surely it all connects to Arc Raiders

[proven harness]

the past on earth is done. We can discover everything that has ever occured in human history and it is but a grain of sand to what the entire cosmos offers us

[torpid anchor]

No it doesn't

[rotund prawn]

hey everyone. I am a bit worried about the future continuing of easter eggs after a certain incident. does anyone have anything they can tell me to remove this worry? Or has nothing changed as of now

[fading vigil]

We don’t know 100% sure, but looks like current EEs stay in game, solvable without any help, and mayhaps- all needed info already in other hands.
For example, Plume doing great with WPN X EE

[rotund prawn]

I wasnt expecting anything to get removed, but more so worrying about the future of additional easter eggs etc.

Hopefully someone has taken over inside Embark

[fading vigil]

We are 500+ days without any significant discoveries, so..

[rotund prawn]

Dunno if this is relevant to anything or not

[uneven shadow]

So i'm feeling like Scotty is alike to the Hercule trope from dragon ball or the king guy from one punch man, being that he claims credit whilst being awful

[open lily]

The poster and sticker descriptions imply that Scotty was hard carried. Is that why S Lies?

[regal flower]

If I could i go though the vod frame by to see if the flash have anything in them

[quasi path]

Which VOD?

[hasty light]

100% this. Ego has a sense of ego about him in all of his quips about his past, but everything we have about his past NOT from him implies he was never that good to begin witrh.
Scotty was definitely a light main

[proven harness]

he absolutely hates June and it upsets me

like, on air hes just constantly shitting on her

[hasty light]

real

Like when he gets upset that June explains the rules and doesn't let him do it

[proven harness]

"You could start a comedy club"

"that was my line June"

"you just stole my thunder"

dude is a douche

idk why multi-co would want two broadcasters WHO CLEARLY dont have good chemistry together hosting their tournaments

and the worst part is June doesnt even really snap back at him lol

[odd crater]

Becase for me June is an AI.

[hasty light]

They're both AI

[proven harness]

well they are both AI voices but in lore arent they people?

i think what @odd crater is implying is they believe that June is in universe an AI and Scotty is a real person

[odd crater]

Yeah i mean why she is in the tutorial? Or even in pratice range

And we only see scotty setup but nothing about june

[hasty light]

No, they're confirmed to be AIs on a system

I'm almost 100% certain

[proven harness]

so Scotty is an AI programmed to think he was a former contestant?

[hasty light]

I think that's it yeah

OR, I think what it actually is

[odd crater]

@hasty light but that dosnt make sense becase of s8 sneak peak

[hasty light]

When a contestant... I dunno, leaves? Dies? Their entire personality is absorbed b ythe finals systems or something.... Think URSA, for example. I personally think it's very much implied that he "died" and became what he is in the finals now, but was entirely different before.

[hasty light]

This is a good point, if you're referring to the video where we see the computer screen and hear their voices? I assumed it was implied a guy was yelling at a computer tbh. I could be wrong

[odd crater]

Yeah that is scotty setup

[hasty light]

Is this confirmed? My take from it was like an enginner watching the systems or something

[odd crater]

https://youtu.be/7pzHeCiKnr4?si=IE5OnAkkzlJAH8u6

The setup react when june talk so she is in the call but the one talking is scotty

[hasty light]

Ah yes. Haven't heard it in a while, lemme give it a quick rerun

Mm, yeah, it's hard to tell if it's implied June is an AI or just someone in a voice call, but honestly they both sound.. yknow, not "present"?

Scotty has that slight muffle to his voice. Maybe because he's in a soundbooth? But June is definitely not in the room

[odd crater]

Yeah but like i said she is alway in the game like the tutorial or the pratice range

[hasty light]

You're right

It's hard to tell for sure, I'm very lenient on a lot of theories

I think you're probably right, though. June is either an AI or just not present in the room. Scotty definitely seems to be a real person though... Maybe, person? What if he's a robot? The implication that the room "stinks of Ospuze" makes me wonder if he's even actually drinking it? I've never known a drink to have a pungent smell after consumption even in excessive consumption

Like... what if Scotty is Scotty, but immortilised in some kind of robot frame, and he still has ospuze habits, but he doesn't actually drink it and just like. pours it over himself lmao

I unno. I love how vague the lore is of this game, I love how many different theories are circulating

[odd crater]

All sponsor are somenting real bad like for me ospuze its drugs, iseult identity theft , dissium are yakuza etc

[proven harness]

like a person IRL dies and then they get their conscience uploaded into the cloud? That would check out with regards to the Vaiiya brain chips

[proven harness]

Trentilla is bio engineering companies (RoundUp, Monsanto), Alfa Acta is weapon distribution, Holtow is insurance (self explanatory), vaiiya is AI and computer brain interfacing, CNS is anarchy and cyber criminals, Engimo is censorship and restrictive of freedom of speech. For the life of me idk much about Volpe

Volpe is furries?

[odd crater]

Work without control?

[proven harness]

like toxic work culture?

[odd crater]

Yeah

"I work 80 hours a week im better than a bum that works 40"

No. The one that work 24/7 without a break

There is a blinking "o" under the alfa acta logo on the bottom of the site

[wispy edge]

just wondering what will happen to the "master" easter egg since Rob left?

I'm sure this question was asked here 100 times, but still

[distant moon]

damn wrong channel

[hasty light]

the roses? still ongoing. he has said the easter egg is solvable without him --- they all are, he only gave us hints. his hints were not keys that would solve anything, rather things to point us in the right direction

[wispy edge]

wasn't there like one huge easter egg, something very complicated Rob was working on for years?

[hasty light]

The roses I'm pretty sure. Unless you are referring to the hidden room of SYSHorizon?

[wispy edge]

I have no clue myself to be honest. I just know that there is a big maze of easter eggs or something

He said in an interview I think

(I'm not keeping up with easter eggs at all)

[hasty light]

Or do you mean the overall easter egg with the levels etc?

[wispy edge]

this, probably

[hasty light]

That's still ongoing

[toxic hazel]

Another thing is, if this is tracking Easter eggs, someone did S9 Easter egg (note that I am just coming back)

[magic elbow]

maybe theyll say something on stream?

[carmine trench]

0xF21 is a BOOT_ORDER command, stating in what order it should boot (if a boot file doesn't exist in that in sequence) on some devices [in this case, searching online indicates it's a raspberry pi]

• 1 (SD Card): The rightmost digit indicates the first boot attempt is the microSD card (or eMMC on Compute Module).
• 2 (Network Boot): The second digit indicates that if the SD card fails, it will attempt to boot from the network.
• f (Restart): The f indicates a restart of the boot loop.

[unkempt dune]

that'd be Data Center from Seoul

[toxic hazel]

Two interesting photos I found

[frozen idol]

i see you in there cns

[signal sorrel]

So, one random thing, that aaaa note is notable enough to have its own Wikipedia page
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A440_(pitch_standard)

[fresh quiver]

"No let it run. They always did prefer doing things his way"

sounds like CNS has a leader that alfa acta knows. (referring to "his way")

[signal sorrel]

The note is used to tune acoustic equipment... Stay tuned?

[frozen idol]

scotty is part of cns is my guess

[full plinth]

hmmm

[white patrol]

assuming:
Dissun power grid
Volpe equipment (VR equipment and stuff)

What's I-seult data channel and alfa acta network?

[half dagger]

We didn't have anything to do about these shenanigans

[copper dock]

Idk if it has been mentioned before but there is an SHA256 hash part around 0:05 (3FA9) but I swear I've seen more around various parts but cant find it again

[odd crater]

i think iseult could be visuals. like skins and alfa acta could be the guns and gadgets

Everything they pressed together was "Sdd aqe naabebe"

[hoary stratus]

Holy shit, it's RR again

[waxen pumice]

There is a whole note underneath the logo

Maybe the password is the keystrokes she did on the video

i tried it

half of it is incredibly difficult to see

i couldnt figure what she typing down

We have a thread for a easteregg which is probably connected to the whole note.

A 440 times becoming A440 seems very likely

[signal sorrel]

Yeah, I just typed "440 note" into google on a whim, and the fact that the first thing that came up involved the letter A without my input seemed too coincidental

i mean space you also be cool ngl

💀

[stray shuttle]

dont know if this means anything, but in the source code of the site i keep seeing this

and in a word scrambler it spells casino

or conias but casino makes more sense lol

[unkempt dune]

the real question would be where to go from A440 🤔

[stray shuttle]

sorry didnt sent the whole thing

theres an alfaacta section on the new casino map aswell

[signal sorrel]

Stay tuned... A note used for tuning...

[harsh violet]

There is nothing hidden in the source code itself

[fair wolf]

since it comes to "casino"

i checked season 1 trailer since it was las vegas

[odd crater]

alfa acta casino?

[unkempt dune]

I'd believe that

[fair wolf]

the "one night three dawns see the signs" message by cns, maybe it is a ouroboros situation

since they are getting hacked again, and its cns again as we saw in the new snippet

where did that message led the first time we saw it?

i might be scretching it but idk

[vagrant mauve]

but there is stuff hidden 🤨

... somewhere

[harsh violet]

You don't need to look at the source code to find them... XD

[fair wolf]

what do you even meeeeeaeaaaannn

[quasi veldt]

can something previously found in the W.P.N. X program help us with the password?

[alpine junco]

"A4 or A4, the musical note La or A in the fourth octave"

[vagrant mauve]

if there's anything we didn't use, I think it's fair game

[unkempt dune]

well, since it's musical this time.. I'd assume the musical bow comment and the "instruments" from the first stage are connected to some degree (but maybe not necessary)

[quasi veldt]

Plenty we didnt use because we didnt solve it fully, all 3 things were leading to us finding xbow

yeah prolly not from memories.zip

this S-Team set in that map with a dude stealing a cashout there?

https://www.alfaacta.net/cart is a page on the new site, and https://www.alfaacta.net/checkout redirects back to that page as well

Likely a mistake. The site is built with Squarespace, probably with a shop template. This page should be unpublished...

3rd one was inactive and we activated it. Then alfaacta.net got updated

S6 was the last time alfa acta was the sponsor so maybe that

oh, didn't realize the 3.5k frames

[sharp flame]

Alright, for all the people flooding in, clues found on the https://alfaacta.net website:

1. Flashing "whole note" gif - "aaaa.gif" with morse flashing that translates to the letter A 440 times

2. Hidden text on the 404 page - "MThd 7>EL"

3. https://alfaacta.net/stay-tuned found from the lore video. We're trying to find the password for this page!

Findings:

• MThd represents the opening string in a MIDI file, and 7>EL can be converted from ASCII to decimal, to 55 62 69 76. Those numbers are MIDI notes, translating to G3 D4 A4 E5. This matches the standard notes for a tuned violin: G3 D4 A4 E5. (Using references such as this site https://inspiredacoustics.com/en/MIDI_note_numbers_and_center_frequencies)
• aaaa.gif, the flashing whole note next to the Alfa Acta logo, represents A440, the tuning pitch standard. Also known as "A4". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A440_(pitch_standard)

[vagrant mauve]

[wraith karma]

what do we do with the 7>EL part tho

[sonic rock]

Longshot, but does anybody have a MIDI keyboard connected to their pc? Maybe the website is looking for midi input

[onyx sage]

I DO have access to a midi keyboard

let me grab it

what would it do?

not a clue

Like I said, this is a longshot at best

[grave lodge]

I did this earlier, plume advised not to call these numbers they’re not relevant

[surreal sinew]

okay i did it

[maiden matrix]

Last time Plume used the A4 clue, was leetspeak, as in A = 4, like people use in their nicks (ex: ph4ntom)

[sonic rock]

Did the Easter Egg fairy appear and give us the password???

[surreal sinew]

nope 😭

[sonic rock]

RIP 😔

[random portal]

could it be anything with HADES.2 in the stay-tuned site, since it has been announced "Next Up Hades.2" during the Minigun AD

[wraith karma]

You can convert the string in the back from ASCII to Decimal to get “55 62 69 76”

The above numbers are all valid inputs for a MIDI keyboard

[low heron]

Might be coincidence but the distance from E to L in the alphabet is 7 letters, or L-E=12-5=7 could be something there.

[wraith karma]

The notes would be:
G3 D4 A4 E5

[surreal sinew]

intresting but unless we get a virtual instrument plugin midi doesnt make sounds but hold on

lemme do it with a random instrument

[sonic rock]

Normally a website has to request access to read midi input, and if it isn't doing that, the keyboard is probably a dead end unfortunately

[ashen glade]

isn't that the standard violin tuning?

[past karma]

Violin tuning isn’t sorcery. It’s a short routine: set a reference (A=440), tune A–D–G–E, make big moves with pegs and tiny moves with fine tuners, then re-check.
But only if it were that simple…

Which is why this comprehensive guide will walk you through violin tuning pegs vs fine tuners, the proper tuning order (standard tuning for violin is G3-D4-A4-E5), using tuner apps or an online violin tuner, tuning by ear, dealing with bridge and peg issues, string stretching, and more.

https://www.angelesacademyofmusic.com/news/violin-tuning-guide

[signal sorrel]

So we have another reference to tuning....

[vagrant mauve]

how do MIDI and violin connect? outside of the broad music part

[wraith karma]

The MIDI notes are the same ones as the violin tuning notes

[past karma]

And violin might also point to strings

[unkempt dune]

the MIDI aspect is most likely just pointing toward "sound" so you have a vague idea what the 7>EL portion is for

[vagrant mauve]

makes sense

[shadow wyvern]

a bow is also used to play the violin

[random portal]

eventually flutes? could that be the same.. from the last week store update?

[past karma]

And it also has a string!

[wraith karma]

What are the chances that we have to do some stuff in-game for this puzzle?

[surreal sinew]

THIS IS A RANDOM VIRTUAL INSTRUMENT DO NOT LISTEN TO THE SOUND OR PITCH IT IS JUST FOR GETTING THE NOTES TO PLAY

[surreal sinew]

nope i play it and nope

[wraith karma]

That’s the CNS sound right????

like the first few notes

[surreal sinew]

thats just some random virtual instrument

but it is the right jingle

[sonic rock]

I feel like the violin connection is too solid to be a coincidence

[plush quiver]

Can someone give me a breakdown as to where we are evidently I’ve missed quite a bit since the season 10 trailer
Launched. I was up to date with the CCTV video of

[violet blade]

sound like when logo apears as you log in the game

[surreal sinew]

i play violin its just standard for 4 strings

but with higher pitch

[tawny reef]

are there any violin-related things in the game?
there is that one emote with a short violin track....
