[blazing steppe]

Peak starts at around <t:1773162000:T>... kind of obvious, lol.

[unborn bronze]

my bet is that they’ve tweaked it and it will go much faster this time, so they can launch Outpost terminals on Friday

[earnest mica]

But if we know how it works, how come it started going up quickly then down again yesterday?

[fathom trench]

I think it is intentionally slow, just so more players could naturally join in and not miss out on the arg

[unreal dirge]

I hope we do it faster than that. I mean it's fun when you are trying to solve the puzzle for a long time but when you already solved it and it just takes a lot of time to move further, it can be a bit frustrating

[earnest mica]

Like it went to 66 then 44 then 55 while more and more people were getting on and trying

[unreal dirge]

Maybe

[spiral gull]

we need a concerted effort, i think skarrow, milo, and bearki could help

[queen valley]

yea it’s unfortunately a manpower issue though, there’s gonna be times where there’s not gonna be a lot of people, and even then a lot of the community doesn’t even know about the arg

[unborn bronze]

we need some kind of way to publicly announce which path we should focus on

[blazing steppe]

Yeah, I got killed 3 times trying to explain it because some people don't want to focus on that, lol.

[unborn bronze]

so people actually know what they’re supposed to be doing

[spiral gull]

ugh same

[gleaming marsh]

Can someone briefly explain to me what the terminals are for? Im new to the server and my team investigated the terminals on perimeter once we received the news of it through the ingame mailbox! Is it some sort of puzzle similar to raid mechanics from destiny?

[tawny topaz]

we think progression might be logarithmic so the closer we are to 100% the more runs we need to progress

[spiral gull]

it's a puzzle, each piece gets us a step closer to unlocking cryo archive

[blazing steppe]

It's a big puzzle, you can learn more here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/edit?tab=t.0

[wet yacht]

i just saw the drop

[narrow hamlet]

Hay Runners, I’ve been reading through the chat and playing my part in doing runs and just want to throw a theory out here to see i can help in any way.

So I get we have to go from terminal to terminal and make progress and I fully back the idea of focusing a single terminal at a time.

What if there is ways we can gain more progress from doing runs for example we are all going A to B and leaving or dying. But what if we gain more progress for extraction or smoothing particular. So if we all did runs during a single 15 min window and extracted would we get more ? What we are doing is definitely working and making progress but can we make more ?

The reason I’m saying this is because from a game perspective when the developers tell the story of how we figured it out in the future and unlocked the map it doesn’t make sense to me that we would just run from A to B and die or leave our game.

Now I could be completely wrong and this might have already been debunked and if so carry on as normal I’ll continue to help in any way I can. I just wanted to throw this out here and see what your thoughts are.

Hope your all having a great day 💚

[unborn bronze]

activating terminal pairs stabilises the feed from the Marathon. if enough people run the same pair enough times, the camera feed will activate

[queen valley]

yah some ppl just wanna kill and get loot which is fair, but at least hit a terminal pair or two while doing it yk

[gleaming marsh]

Thank you people!

[blazing steppe]

One guy killed me right next to the bio research building and I was like "I would have given this to you had you waited 3 seconds."

[blazing steppe]

it's an outstanding theory - we don't quite know yet

[unborn bronze]

apparently “the voice is the trigger”, so nothing should matter besides activating the second terminal

[queen valley]

I believe the people who manages the community manifest were testing some theories last night, we can prob ask abt it later

actually oyster is right here

[blazing steppe]

Yeah, didn't get to read that one yet, thanks

[agile bluff]

Unless we get new info - we're still operating off the Official bot's message of "one trigger, one count"

[blazing steppe]

yeah seems super explicit now

[queen valley]

back to the waiting game now, except instead of waiting for a timegate it’s waiting for more people to get on…

[onyx zodiac]

What if you gotta get kills near the terminal idk

[unreal dirge]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/edit?usp=drivesdk

[queen valley]

we tested that during perimeter, we also killed ourselves near the terminals to see if that did anything LOL

[unreal dirge]

Nah, we just need more runners

[queen valley]

it really is just a waiting game rn, we have to wait until more of the community gets on and starts doing terminal runs

[narrow hamlet]

Would it be possible to arrange a time for every runner to be on that suits all time zones I feel the biggest problem is most of you are on while it’s the middle of the night here and vice versa. If we could find a good window that lines up with all our time zones we would in theory have our best chance of making progress.

[queen valley]

pretty sure some people were organizing that don’t remember who though

[fierce flume]

Did we get if

[thorny spade]

It's been 8hrs for me, any progress on dire marsh

[fierce flume]

I just woke up

It*

[polar nacelle]

no

[queen valley]

^

[fierce flume]

I’ll log on soon to help

[polar nacelle]

waiting for another push ig

[fierce flume]

By either killing people to make it safe for others or just doing the push with yall

Might just do thief cuz he escape is goated

Her*

[queen valley]

just play the game normally for now tbh, not enough people are pushing to make progress, hit a pair or two if you can but honestly just play the game LOL

[icy moat]

Been afk for 24 hours, I gather the marsh terminals have unlocked?

[fierce flume]

Shall do

[queen valley]

yeup waiting for another community push rn

[raven cobalt]

Yup

[fierce flume]

I’ll wait for another push

[icy moat]

Awesome. Gonna jump on in an hour and see what's what

[fierce flume]

Outpost is the one I mainly wanted to help with too cuz well

Outpost can b hell

[raven cobalt]

I'll be starting pushes around 6/7 pm CEST

[uneven bluff]

It seems to me that the API sends data that has been manually modified, so it will be impossible to open a new stage before a certain deadline.

[queen valley]

check community manifest for current steps and resources

[fierce flume]

I thought we would’ve got it being bearki and skarrow were streaming for it

[coral sun]

~~ guys, I'm not sure if anyone has brought this up before regarding the cryo archives arg:
The countdown gives 762 years etc etc right? which would bring us to 2788/6/16, which doesn't make much sense. The website also points to 2777/7/7 internally. So what if we subtract the countdown from 2777 instead? That gets us to the noon of April 1st of 2015. This to me feels like the correct direction to go towards instead ~~

nvm I got carried away and forgot the nature of a countdown is that it is changing

[queen valley]

LOL

don’t worry we’ll just say the voices we’re talking it’s okay

[coral sun]

the other interpretation if we stick to the time being related to 2777 somehow, would be to calculate the date difference between now and 2015

but I don't really like the number 3996 either

I haven't participated in the arg so far I need to check up the chat history to see our progress and stop blind guessing lol

[hidden pollen]

Someone let me know if i understand it. Theres 9 videos on the website that need to be unlocked. We've unlocked 3 "pairs" so far? In the shape of running from screen to screen on different maps correct?

[uneven bluff]

This is the date the "Goliath" project was leaked. If you dig into the console, you'll find a mention of this project.

[hidden pollen]

So we still looking for more screens?

[coral sun]

which date?

[queen valley]

yup! u can check here for past info and current info!

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/edit?usp=drivesdk

[tawny topaz]

if we don't listen to the voices where do we get ideas from anyway

[hidden pollen]

Thank you!

[uneven bluff]

1 April 2015

[fathom trench]

3 pairs of terminals on dire marsh, yes

[coral sun]

My previous interpretation of april 1st 2015 doesn't stand because the countdown would point to 2nd April tomorrow, so I gave up on that interpretation

[hidden pollen]

Ah alright. Ill help when I come home

[queen valley]

ur so right we should listen to the voices let’s schizopost

[coral sun]

the countdown wouldn't be pointing to a specific date, as one number has to be changing relative to another, for it to be a "countdown"

[queen valley]

tbf the first set we did was over the weekend when the most people were on

[uneven bluff]

So it's just a good coincidence, or not...

[queen valley]

that chat was so fucking chaotic LOL

[coral sun]

I mean the devs mentioned cryo archives unlocking around the lower half of march, so unless there's another significant date in the april of 2015 that points to a potential unlock date, we should disregard this

[tawny topaz]

what about
i become a streamer
so then
when i do it it counts more and then we get cryo archives today in like 30 min the time i setup stream

[deep haven]

Any breakthroughs?

[sinful compass]

What did I miss? Any update? Do we push as always?

[sinful compass]

Same q

[mystic parrot]

You can use Rook or normal shell. You cannot quit the game after finishing, must die or exfil

[deep haven]

I’m streaming D2 this morning, Gonna force marathon down their throats

[queen valley]

Ya Milo was bringing his community towards it during his stream too

[deep haven]

That’s a joke… sorta

[flint mica]

true

[queen valley]

I mean y’all can ask streamers just don’t be rude and don’t get banned LOL

[deep haven]

Should we start to make teams for trying to hit terminals? Has that idea been brought up?

[sturdy tapir]

anything significant about noon UTC June 16, 2788? I mean, it's the year after the TCIV colony was started, I guess

[deep haven]

Fair, I thought more so for firepower

Ahh

[sturdy tapir]

but that comment earlier made me realize that the timer isn't counting down to 2777, like i'd assumed; it's counting down to that other date and time

[hollow plaza]

any progress made on dire??

[low zenith]

EU will probably be back in around 4-5 hours, working time

[coral sun]

uesc marathon arrived at tau ceti around 5 years and 11 months after 16/6/2788. I haven't played the original game, maybe something happened just before arrival?

[snow sentinel]

This is all on another level

[west sparrow]

Yea this shi is so cool maaaan

[tawny topaz]

do we think the picture that's the steam banner for the game is located in cryo archives?

[earnest finch]

are there any coordination on what terminal to focus? I assume biostock for now, but would be good to have somewhere where I could see what terminal I should do to help

[deep haven]

Hopefully my friend says yes

[tawny topaz]

because if it's part of a map im HYPED

[deep haven]

Yes, The S'pht compilier is guarding cryo archive and thats what we saw

[tawny topaz]

there are no words able to describe the amount of hype that is pumping through my veins rn

[sinful compass]

Yea we should kill UESC while waiting if we stagnate keep those numbers up!

[deep haven]

I just wanna see the cosmic horror at its finest already

[tranquil harness]

What's the progress going? Can't check on desktop rn

[sinful compass]

Same pls info

[queen valley]

no prog rn we’re waiting for peak hours to do another community push

[tranquil harness]

That's fair

[sinful compass]

K

[sturdy tapir]

current timeline has the Marathon arriving in 2773 FYI

[tranquil harness]

How long did the perimeter ones take? Because if the marsh ones are similar it may be the same wait for outpost?

[coral sun]

ah, I only did a naive google search

[tranquil harness]

It maybe outpost ones will go live next Monday

[queen valley]

oh right cause infinite had some fucky wucky timeline stuff happening

[fading swan]

has anything new happened yet

I fell asleep

[sturdy tapir]

you'll get more conflicting info the more you read into it tbf

[agile bluff]

😂

[queen valley]

nope, besides dire marsh unlocking, we’re waiting for peak hours for another community push on terminals

[tawny topaz]

i want to feel SMALL and TERRIFIED it's gonna be so cool

[queen valley]

we’re gonna watch durandel make guardians like Cortana did 😭

[sinful compass]

Gonna be for sure

[sturdy tapir]

i wonder, did the anomaly appear and destroy the structures it affected, or was it there and being studied for some time before they pulled a Half-Life and it grew?

either way, something must've happened the June after the colony was formally established, and idk what yet (though i have hunches)

[coral sun]

throwing this into chatGPT makes it go into mega hallucination mode lol

[snow sentinel]

Cryo is going to be so sick

[sturdy tapir]

it's going rampant

[snow sentinel]

I might go insane maybe even puke

[sturdy tapir]

when we do start pushing terminals, what order are we prioritizing? or is that still TBD

[hollow plaza]

time to farm traxus contracts till its terminal time i guess then

[sturdy tapir]

i wanna get some practice in lol

[spiral gull]

far as i'm aware it's still algae ponds > bio-research

[sturdy tapir]

right, i meant the order of the three pairs themselves, but starting with AP > BR is enough for now

[queen valley]

it’s theorized the anomaly was an after effect of some jarro tech from before Marathon got there, which, makes some sense to me, but im iffy on the lore of OG marathon to throw in my 2 cent

[spiral gull]

i mean, if you can't hit AP > BR then it doesn't really matter, as your progress will decay on the other terminals no matter what since they're not getting focused

if you want all the audio logs, that's different, just do whatever you spawn closest to since it's off hours

that's how i'm doing it until we get the runner-signal that it's go time

[sturdy tapir]

i figured trying for multiple terminals per run might be handy, as long as there's not some cap applied based on cumulative stability. obviously gotta run the prio one first but what's the harm in more otherwise?

[deep haven]

So should we be doing the other terms as well? Just to keep progress up

[agile bluff]

There's a per 15 minute decay that you have to cross for each camera that increases exponentially

[spiral gull]

progress is at 0 on everything, don't stress too hard over it until we get told it's brute forcing time

literally just do whatever until peak hours, then focus 3

[sturdy tapir]

so optimal is AP > BR > disconnect?

[deep haven]

Got you

[agile bluff]

Not sure - I think it's changed. I've been off for awhile but a group have been testing

[spiral gull]

this

[agile bluff]

I believe the theory is disconnect invalidates your run

[sweet grail]

I need to know why the download was reatsart in cryoacrhives site ???

[sturdy tapir]

ah. so AP > BR > GTFO, got it

[queen valley]

^

[wild nymph]

did args like this go slow in destiny as well? wondering if the not enough runners is a real issue or it's just how its supposed to go

[spiral gull]

progress decayed because not enough people were doing it

[sturdy tapir]

or maybe you can kermit -1 scoreboard?

[agile bluff]

They can yeah

[queen valley]

i agree with that theory if anything just run into any UNSC and die

[sturdy tapir]

right

[spiral gull]

if you think this was slow, ilovebees was INTERMINABLY LONG

[queen valley]

or loot and try to extract either or works

[agile bluff]

Bio-Research is easy because the edge of map is right there

[astral elk]

Ive been in args that have lasted months

[spiral gull]

years, even

[agile bluff]

Some have lasted years 🙂

[astral elk]

Some yeah

[queen valley]

no one is doing terminal runs as of current so progress decays, we’re waiting on peak hours to do a community push

[tame stream]

some never end

[agile bluff]

Try and stare at static for 12 months before the devs add numbers to it 12 months later

[wild nymph]

alright I see so it's probably going as it should

[tame stream]

Greetings from a former member of nonchalance

[sinful compass]

Brutal

[torpid meteor]

So we are still in dire marsh?

[quick gale]

Yes

[obtuse nexus]

What's the current status? I haven't checked since last night

[crude cloud]

where are the terminals and people doing runs id like to join

[queen valley]

no progress as of now, most of the bars should have decayed. we’re waiting on peak hours to do a community push on terminal runs

[pseudo fjord]

Are there any in-game rewards for doing the ARG?

[queen valley]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/edit?usp=drivesdk

check current steps

[sturdy tapir]

Cryo Archive

[spare lichen]

unlocking the map

thats the reward

[obtuse nexus]

Sounds good

[queen valley]

unlocking end game map cryo archive

[pseudo fjord]

No cosmetics even for people who invested effort into doing it?

[spare lichen]

you do this shit for the love of the arg or you don't

[queen valley]

there will proooobably be a community cosmetic everyone unlocks, but we’re in it for the love of the game LOL

[sturdy tapir]

i wouldn't rule out a sticker for hearing every terminal audio or smth, but i wouldn't expect anything

[pseudo fjord]

I’m doing it regardless, I’m just asking

[spare lichen]

fair

[pseudo fjord]

Maybe I could persuade more people to join

[spare lichen]

the mida super dac from the 2025 pre-delay arg is a background and pfp in game but that was given via server slam, not the arg

[quick gale]

Yeah thats honestly the most helpfull thing rn if you know people because we dont have enough people on at this hour to make a push anyways

[coral sun]

usually for this kind of event everyone gets a reward if there is one, regardless of participation

[spare lichen]

closest thing to an arg cosmetic

[obtuse nexus]

It's really hard to calculate who all has done something because it's unlocked by accessing the og marathon terminals on the maps, which anyone can and will complete, so if anything is unlocked it will probably be for everyone in game

[queen valley]

do it probably like 90% of the marathon community don’t know about the ARG every person helps

[obtuse nexus]

Aside from cryo archive, of course

[fair thistle]

don't get me wrong, i agree that it shouldn't. but as it stands it's the most reliable option, looking back at the previous zone. the key is mass coordination over a relatively short (~1-2hr) time window, and unless we recruit 100+ new runners to this discord somehow we're just gonna spiral into the same uncertain grind if we do it alone again.
that said, maybe we've got enough buzz over two days to get a large enough group going without streamer assistance, but we still need to decide on a time window when most of said group is available

[spare lichen]

bungie has enough telemetry through d2 that marathon probably knows "uuid: 04512846 activated pair 3 on dire marsh"

[lime anchor]

sadge

[spare lichen]

i mean they need telemetry to progress the site

[lime anchor]

just woke up

[queen valley]

THE STOCK MARKET CRASHED NOOOO

[restive lark]

What is this graph?

[lime anchor]

BEST TIME TO BUY IS NOW CHAT

[lime anchor]

percentage on each terminal progress

[broken linden]

Do you actually have to interact with the panels or just walk up to em’

[queen valley]

tbf we did have Milo and his community help us with the terminal runs when we finally finished perimeter

[fair thistle]

yeah exactly

[polar nacelle]

no stonks today…

[rough finch]

Invest in uesc coins.

[lime anchor]

start terminal you hear a ping and see a red indicator on the terminal
end terminal you hear a durandal voice line

[agile bluff]

🙂

Proximity Based - just walk up

[lunar tendon]

I saw a video of a MIDA lockdown on outpost. Is there any connection to breaching cryo archive?

[broken linden]

Cool! So I have been helping lol

[queen valley]

we definitely could do it w/o streamers it’d just be a slow hell of grinding a singular terminal pair

[spare lichen]

it's a mida faction quest i heard

[sinful compass]

Yes every person

[queen valley]

seems to be a late game MIDA contract

[lime anchor]

there were streamers helping tbf, bearki skarrow and milo to name a few

[quick gale]

I think another decently large group just started working on it there was just a small but noticeable jump on the graph

[lime anchor]

a got others to signal boost

[lunar tendon]

Cool thanks!

[fair thistle]

for the sake of our sanities and free time i think bashing away at it for hours is counterproductive

[lime anchor]

i think they're just gonna lower the requirements if they dont see progress by reset today

[polar nacelle]

did he help this time? i heard skarrow tried to help, but seems that wasn’t enough

[earnest finch]

I've just stumbled on the terminals by myself, then found the site and googgled some info which lead me here, never participated in any ARG before, but I'm hyped

[lime anchor]

he did

[desert mesa]

I’m awake and see we lost progress. What happened?

[queen valley]

he brought awareness and did some runs with his community yea

[lime anchor]

he's BEEN helping tbf

[fair thistle]

we did prove that we can assemble enough folks to knock it out over like an hour and a half, like when perimeter got blitzed

[desert mesa]

Damn

[polar nacelle]

ok, good to know

[quick gale]

We stopped going for it because eu and na mostly went to bed so we started testing how the decay works and found which terms each cam is related too

[lime anchor]

they're gonna care when cryoarchives dont get unlocked alright

shroud is gonna be running

[frigid flume]

https://images-ext-1.discordapp.net/external/um_4mlwrB8SqL6auo-TTWlbDogZAA6JuH3l9YB9ZR54/https/media.tenor.com/JX0HLoso0QYAAAPo/bungie-marathon-new-marathon.mp4

[quick gale]

We could sceduale one big push

[lime anchor]

yessirrr

[sinful compass]

Lets go

[sturdy tapir]

oh cool, i was wondering if anyone had done downtime research into which terminals were which cam

[quick gale]

Wait he knows about the arg

[fair thistle]

is shroud in on the thing now?

[deep haven]

So community push at 16:00?

[spare lichen]

dude shroud being on this would be weird for him

[quick gale]

Yeah me and like 5 people last night where up till like 3 am testing stuff

[vague fiber]

this. there has to be coordination

[lime anchor]

no i mean in relationship to the other thing i said

[queen valley]

he knows about touching the terminals now?!?!?

[lime anchor]

but he does know

[graceful hawk]

15 min refresh timer is brutal when its off peak hours

[desert mesa]

GMT or ET?

[deep haven]

ET

[sinful compass]

Sure

[lime anchor]

ppl in his chat did say stuff and he acknowledged it, he just doesnt care

[quick gale]

I mean bro if shroud even mentions it we can do it all in like 30 minutes dude has so many competitive players in his chat

[lime anchor]

which fair, like it isnt for everyone

[spare lichen]

yo if we're gonna schedule a run you should put the time in the message using @time

[desert mesa]

I should be home at 16:30 so I should be able to do some runs

[spare lichen]

converts it per viewer to their timezone

[deep haven]

I’ll be off during that time personally

[lime anchor]

its just a different kind of viewership, not everyone is rly into the ARG side of things, we really are very much the niche inside the niche

[quick gale]

We would want the time scedualed to be when na and eu are home from work but are not going to bed yet

[graceful hawk]

Progress is steadily rising for the last 30 min

[sinful compass]

20:15 primetime LUL

[polar nacelle]

oh that’s great, will be there to help

[queen valley]

we just need not even half of his community to hit even on pair and we’d be set actually

[spare lichen]

i'll be sleepn for work at that time, pref something like <t:1773172800:t> - <t:1773180000:t>

[quick gale]

True but even if he explains how to do it we would imidiatly finish ts. I understnad though lol this is not his thing he was pro in other games and now cares about content while still being good at the game.

[lime anchor]

we just got lucky that skarrow, milo and bearki were already kind of bigger streamers so it helped boost it a little bit

[noble marlin]

Still on dire terminals?

[queen valley]

yup

[crimson latch]

what do we do to the terminals?

[full bolt]

What is this channel about? seems more civilized than general chat

[warped plank]

so is there a point in running any terms atm?

[late wing]

Any progress since last night?

[agile bluff]

😂

[queen valley]

btw i feel as though timings should be discussed in the community manifest server just so it doesn’t get lost

[quick gale]

Yeah and milo told his chat to do all three at the same time on perimiter this will not work without crazy amounts of people on dire marsh and outpost one at a time is required on these maps unless like a 5-10k streamer picks it up

[late wing]

We are solving the current arg

[sinful compass]

[high spruce]

there's a dedicated server for this?

[queen valley]

in the manifest yea https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/edit?usp=drivesdk

[high spruce]

kk

[full bolt]

wow great work. let's see what's this about

[quick gale]

Yeah set it up a few days ago with pink tube sock im down to hop in a vc with some people to kill time

[queen valley]

it’s community ran FYI so don’t be blaming bungie for anything that happens in there

[lime anchor]

yeah, like i cant rly fault them or be mad at them for not boosting it, if it aint for them there's no reason to care to do "run to one terminal and then to the other, repeat"

if it was something more engaging, contentwise, id assume other streamers would do it as wellm and that is not to blame it on what it is right now, i think personally its great, just thinking in a content creator perspective, not much to "make content" out of so they will try a couple of times then leave it at that

[warped plank]

so is there a point of us running the dire marsh terms atm?

[icy moat]

I'm not sure where that is?

[quick gale]

I agree with everything said here

[sinful compass]

Yes sure UESC kill

[quick gale]

Unless you want to practice or we coordinate a kind of test, no.

[mystic parrot]

New google doc incoming yall

[left kelp]

Hello all, there is going to be an attempted effort to guide and coordinate the arg effort for all people

[warped plank]

okay

[left kelp]

It will be linked shortly

[mystic parrot]

coordination incoming

[deep haven]

We got people starting the push at 16:00

[agile bluff]

The larger streamers might get involved in something a little more tangible than "termtouch and number go up on website"

[sweet sentinel]

could blame em for making the challenge take to much i mean reality is 80% of the playerbase likely wont know this exist wich leaves a small niche of players to pick up the slack for the majority not really complaining cuz idc personally but ye seems kinda tough

[quick gale]

We have tested the decay and what cameras are what terms idk what else to test

[vague fiber]

include timezones when specifying the time for the push plz

[restive lark]

Is there anything that pays homage to I LOVE BEES that might help aid the effort?

[lime anchor]

also keep in mind, we are in a weekday, EU and NA have a very limited frame to coincide with this and get it done, this time is too late for a tuesday

[quick gale]

Discord will auto change it too your timezone on those clocks

[lime anchor]

for central EU thats 2am to 4am

[vague fiber]

oh cool. thanks

[sinful compass]

[kind forum]

for western US that's 5:20 AM

[deep haven]

I was thinking 16:00 for EST which would be like 20:00 eu time and 12:00 California time

[lime anchor]

^^^^^^^^

thats good

[left kelp]

Please Read over this yall, its an attempt to coordinate the Dire Marsh push

[lime anchor]

ppl are back from work and school at that time

[sinful compass]

16:00 EST sounds nice

[restive lark]

Is there a way to pin the google doc to the channel? Then we don’t need to keep sending the doc each time

[vague fiber]

also if you have any kind of social media presence (tik tok, ig and such) try to advertise there too

[deep haven]

You do know people will be going to bed around the times you suggest for work tomorrow, right?

[lime anchor]

the other one is like so late NA AND EU tho so wdym waste of time?

[deep haven]

That’s what I’m doing, streaming D2 and won’t shut up about it

[vague fiber]

❤️

[lime anchor]

on a weekend tho

[queen valley]

there should be a side bar with tabs and there should be one named current step but I haven’t checked it, it could’ve been updated

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0 We spent several hours working on this. Lots of test runs were done. This is a full guide for coordinated dire marsh runs later today.

[sinful compass]

https://youtube.com/@thedeadlyraz?si=3hFrx68b-SRRKobD

[queen valley]

oh no I meant the community manifest server

[lime anchor]

the time @deep haven is suggesting IS peak time, its when we got to 64% yesterday

[deep haven]

That’s why we need to designate leaders, my time I said is perfect people are getting off work and are doing things before bed

[lucid isle]

What percent we at ? I did some rook runs last night before bed to help

[sinful compass]

Dox

[agile bluff]

0%

[lucid isle]

Oh

That’s not good

[left kelp]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

[lucid isle]

Or is it

[left kelp]

anyone that can share this doc please do

[deep haven]

Bingo

[lucid isle]

We got the algae ponds ?

[agile bluff]

Nah - just didn't have enough people

[left kelp]

spread it so we can get something going

[lime anchor]

doomer ass guy damn

[deep haven]

That’s one timezone of the world versus like 5 that will actually be poppin

[lime anchor]

bro said "do it in my timezone or it wont work"

[deep haven]

I mean people can coordinate a push then but there’s gonna be less bodies

[warm geyser]

When is the update coming out this month so I can put PTO in

[lime anchor]

that's what im saying

literally it makes sense to get half the world on it than just california LMFAO

[deep haven]

You do know the game is played all over the world right? Why would we force ourselves to have less bodies to fit your timezone

[lime anchor]

that's why we're saying EST

[tawny topaz]

based

[lime anchor]

EST is the timezone with the highest population density and it fits EU timezones too

[deep haven]

Why wouldn’t we do it in the day where more people are awake and wanting to run it not heading into the late night?

[lime anchor]

???

[brisk garden]

the world doesn't revolve around you cro </3

[lime anchor]

yes

thats why we're saying it doing it in the afternoon?

[deep haven]

My time proposed is when people are getting off work and getting on

[lime anchor]

when people are back from work and school?

[copper totem]

Wait, did progress reset?

[lime anchor]

bro the US is LARGE

[vague fiber]

lets be real. the push on perimeter worked because of NA. it was 4-5am here west europe

[copper totem]

So that means we need to continuously do it without break to keep the progress up else reset?

[copper totem]

True

[fast valve]

hows progress going everyone

[raven cobalt]

Europe 6/7 pm cest - 11.00 am pst

[deep haven]

I say we get teams together for the 16:00 push and the 21:00 push

Who is gonna be doing the 16:00 push

[white pawn]

tbh i don’t think we’ll get them until the weekend, and didn’t the other cams push get done around 12-1am est?

[brisk garden]

that or a million billion zillion people doing it in the space of 30mins

[lime anchor]

no i wasnt asking when, i was being passive aggressive

[vague fiber]

best we can do is do a push during peak hours in europe and hope NA takes the rest

[digital cypress]

wish you all luck with the tmerinals because am in way the wrong timezone for this

[raven cobalt]

Haha lol

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0 Push when you can, but we're aiming for reset

[deep haven]

Why would we only focus on eu hours?

[polar nacelle]

me, also will try to make it in 21 push too

[copper totem]

Aha

[lime anchor]

yeah reset is literally great time

[deep haven]

Hell yeah

[grand ridge]

through which contract agent can i unlock arachne or whatever the name is?

[deep haven]

I’m making a thread called 16:00 push team, we shall discuss plans there timezone (EST)

[queen valley]

CyberAcme just do your prio contracts from them wrong chat to ask this tho

[silver shuttle]

Literally there IS a point

[vague fiber]

not saying to focus on europe... im saying focus on peak hours in europe the do first push and then NA takes the rest.. because the world spins a certain direction

[deep haven]

EST

[mystic parrot]

lol

[sinful compass]

Yea

[agile bluff]

It doesn't reset - it decays. We've already proven that today lol

[grand ridge]

thank you very much🙏 and sorry for the wrong channel

[copper totem]

Well, in a few hours I’m done working and I work from home. So around 5:30 PM I’ll try to do a chain for terminal runs to help out. Will also need a break to do contracts though as I still need to unlock a lot.

[lime anchor]

this makes sense cus peak hours EU trickle into peak hours NA

[queen valley]

all good LOL good luck on ur contracts runner

[silver shuttle]

It just takes you back like 2 percent.

[cinder lotus]

All the infos you need guys is in this Gdoc!
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

[brisk garden]

and during the perimeter push X3

[silver shuttle]

By watching the actual website

[lime anchor]

it hasnt gone from 40 to 0

[astral elk]

Somehow feel like we wont have enough ppl like yesterday

[silver shuttle]

Brother are you new here?

[left kelp]

its a weekday, but the info is still consistent and relavant

[cinder lotus]

Word need to be out there, ppl need to know what to do and at what time to do it

[lime anchor]

you can see peak hours vs smaller hours, we would have to get 0 people running for it to fully go down to 0

[grand ridge]

just started yesterday, i wasnt really up for extraction shooters since i tried arc before and i didnt like the crafting idea, but when i saw the art style and how marathon looked i had to try it. and ngl im enjoying it

[silver shuttle]

I've been here since april 2025 homie. We know what we are doing.

[agile bluff]

Did like 3 or 4 testing runs on each different camera pair. With different variables. And different wait spaces between.

[deep haven]

16:00 EST for team 1

[lime anchor]

it doesnt reset

btw

[silver shuttle]

Homie joined 2 days ago and trying to say some random shit.

[queen valley]

yo lets keep chat civil

[white pawn]

locked and loaded

[agile bluff]

If it resets, it would have dropped by roughly the same number it rose when we did a 1 reset push. It didn't it - took 2-3 resets to dropback down base level.

[lime anchor]

like i also want to get this done but why're u being a doomer abt it

[fringe pike]

keep it chill here guys

[silver shuttle]

Go do your terminals or i will feed you to bingus

[errant tartan]

how would that be the case when last night before bed the bar was nearly 3/4 full, and now this morning it's less than half full?

[agile bluff]

Nope it's exponential.

[silver shuttle]

Nah that's too much. 3-7%

[lime anchor]

because it trickled down progressively bcs there was less runners

[agile bluff]

The Decay rate you have to push past to get it to go up, goes up as you get a higher number.

[queen valley]

????? im just sayin keep chat civil so we can properly discuss?

[raven cobalt]

Thats also possible for EU players. Its 21:00 cest then.

[silver shuttle]

It was a joke bruh

[vague fiber]

brother... it decays every 15 min. off peak hours less people running. it drops

[fringe pike]

hes jokin my guy

[silver shuttle]

People are asleep now. It decays more.

[hollow heath]

Just to confirm (because I haven’t seen anyone say so), but are we able to do these runs as Rook?

[fringe pike]

yes!

[silver shuttle]

Yes

[tawny topaz]

no no he had a point lets feed that guy to bingus

[hollow heath]

Awesome. Thx.

[deep haven]

Sacrifice to the bingy

[fringe pike]

Bingus does have to eat hmmmm

[raven cobalt]

Yes, a lot did them during the higher percentages

[silver shuttle]

These aren't contracts so we are fully ok to do it

[polar nacelle]

glory to bingus

[deep haven]

The last thing you see on Tau Ceti before it FUCKING devours you

[silver shuttle]

Because it requires constant connection. You do one terminal and extract and repeat constantly.

[graceful hawk]

Wish we knew how many ran the terminals last 15min, 0 Decay and 0 Progress so thats the amount we need to keep progress during off peak

[deep haven]

I did

[vapid heron]

any idea on exactly whats being counted here? if one pairing = 1 point, is it 1 point per person in your team, or per person pairing regardless of team? do the points multiply if more than one team per run instance pair? are there additional points for killing UESC between the 1st and 2nd terminal? do runner kills make points go up or down per person?

[tawny topaz]

it decays the same but nobody's up to counterbalance the decay with their runs if it makes sense

[graceful hawk]

Specifically Cam 5 was what I was looking at

[queen valley]

team based apparently

[silver shuttle]

We suggested doing ONE terminal to finish them one at a time. But not everyone agrees.

[signal bluff]

[cinder lotus]

Every info you guys need is in this Gdoc, we spent a lot of time putting it together to make it digestable for everyone, take a minute to read it and you'll be all set!

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

[vague fiber]

teams count more?

[agile bluff]

Because you're right, sometimes people are still running it! And so that would partially offset the decay rate.

We did a single reset of Camera09 and it went from 2% - 18%. Then we all stopped. So next reset it would have reset down to close to 2-4% right? Because that's the baseline, and the people who got from 2-18 stopped.

But it didn't - it went from 18% -> 10% -> 2%.

[quick gale]

After more testing from people last night. You MUST exfill or get eliminated to be contributing leaving does not work!! Please spread this message this is VERY important.

[graceful hawk]

Yeah, thats the most sensible. Just an Army of Rooks to get the most progress per effort

[zinc pier]

are those piles of bodies in some of the cam feeds?

[silver shuttle]

Not even rooks just solo runs

[agile bluff]

Same thing happened when we tested Steerage

[silver shuttle]

Where?

[vapid heron]

i propose a rook codeword "Durandal" - if heard, help pair

[tired roost]

What i was tryna say

[vague fiber]

rook is easier imo. less ppl in lobby

more likely there will be other rooks doing the same

[brisk garden]

if it reset every time then it would be nigh impossible to do it over multiple "resets"

which is how perimeter was achieved

[tired roost]

Rook is easier because you spawn after the point when most teams would get bored of camping terminal. Shell runs are instant death for this

[silver shuttle]

Why are we still yapping? GO RUN

[tired roost]

I just woke up lemme finish my monster damn

[graceful hawk]

I just run rook for it, less runners to encounter and zero liability for gear. Probably going to start purposefully dying to get more per 15 min cycle

[zinc pier]

not straight up bodies but it looks like just a straight pile of cryo whatevers got dumped there

[brisk garden]

I used logic to come to my conclusion

[maiden brook]

You eat that monster!

[vapid heron]

I am going to prox chat "Durandal" - if you hear me say that, help me pair the terminals. might get more points towards progress if theres more pairing

[silver shuttle]

You inspect element on the website. It tells you EVERYTHING.

[silver shuttle]

Probably just rubble. We'll see when it clears up.

It does.

[tired roost]

he keeps asking me not to eat him and offering me various enchanted bones

[copper pine]

just wish we could do contracts with rook, at least make an upgrade to make that possible or something

[edgy minnow]

hey anyone have links to cams?

[vague fiber]

thats actually sick. code word durandal for other rooks

[edgy minnow]

like the viewable ones

fnaf shi

[zinc pier]

cryoarchive.systems

[silver shuttle]

Upgrade arachne for a blue WSTR when you spawn

[teal cargo]

% is stuff on?

[agile bluff]

I mean the website doesn't show the algorithm used to calculate the stabilisation rate 😂

We're all just guessing

[edgy minnow]

ty

[graceful hawk]

Oh belive me, I am lol

[tired roost]

I dont mind the idea of a code word but like come on talking to fellow runners is like my only source of social interaction rn

[silver shuttle]

Are you just here to ragebait or are you genuinely curious? Cuz we just explained it.

[tired roost]

Let’s establish this much. We do not know for certain how the progress works and last night proves it. Let’s not crap on jimp

[copper pine]

sorry man, codeword or not I'm convinced everything on tau ceti iv wants me dead, so i shoot first and ask later

[agile bluff]

But as I said - we tested it across multiple cams and it never returned to baseline or close by next reset.

[graceful hawk]

Ehh, it makes sense you can't. A rook faction woud be neat. If you do extract, I usually get a decent amount of salvage for upgrades and just sell most of the loadout

[tired roost]

This is the answer. It would jump down much faster if it was “resetting”.

[silver shuttle]

We have a whole website tracking progress that updates with the main website. Go there.

[icy moat]

Sorry to sound dumb, but is this all located on a website or something?

[tired roost]

cryoarchive.systems

[copper pine]

https://winnower.garden/marathon/cryoarchive

[crude mauve]

Did progress reset on Biostock camera???

[zinc pier]

there's a bunch on the preservation cam too, but they're still upright

[cinder lotus]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

This GDoc has EVERYTHING

[silver shuttle]

Probably mannequins then i think

[hybrid crow]

oh my god i just saw the website now, what happened?

[tired roost]

yea i think we failed due to not enough people or missing something

[desert hearth]

is there a voicechat in which i can hang out with other people doing the arg?

[tired roost]

good idea but i don’t know

[queen valley]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mtUtDPvbh6ahiynYFVS7Z4O79Nw6y5PEOjweCpzWV_A/edit?usp=drivesdk

it’s all in the manifest here!

[crude mauve]

how in the world did we get steerage done when peeps were hardlining for bio lmao

[copper pine]

they look more like coffins tbh

[queen valley]

sorry I didn’t link it in the message that’s mb

[vapid heron]

doesnt answer any of my questions, but my questions are hard to guage

[quick gale]

Yes! we are in there rn its in the discord at the top of the main doc

[silver shuttle]

It's still not clewr

[quick gale]

After more testing from people last night. You MUST exfill or get eliminated to be contributing leaving does not work!! Please spread this message this is VERY important.

[tired roost]

Oh this isnew

I was exfiling or dying already so no problem

I figured i might as well

[hybrid crow]

REALLY???

[silver shuttle]

I just exfil after every one.

YALL HAVE BEEN LEAVING?!

[tired roost]

yeah just exfil or bring frags

[cinder lotus]

Step by step guide to do the ARG in the GDoc!!!

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

[tired roost]

Don’t leave match

[quick gale]

YES 100%

[hybrid crow]

that fucking sucks so much

[tired roost]

exactly

[hybrid crow]

everything i did was for nothing

[silver shuttle]

It's weird that good loot shows up now LOL

[raven cobalt]

Hmm thats weird, we all exited yesterday when the percentage was rising and rising. Quick rook runs.

But if theres proof i.can try with the runs later today.

[silver shuttle]

Omg brother LOL

[tired roost]

rest in peace. Sorry man

[quick gale]

there is 100% conclusive proof join the vc in the other discord to talk to people about it

[silver shuttle]

How many did you do?

[copper pine]

look at the 'Crash Casket' profile background.. similar curves to the 'coffins'?

[tired roost]

classic marathon arg server?

[silver shuttle]

Hmmmmmm interesting

[astral elk]

Uh yeah

[hybrid crow]

how many??? I was doing 5 or 6 runs per reset

[mystic parrot]

we have been doing test runs all night

[raven cobalt]

You got a link to that discord?

[hybrid crow]

also in perimeter

[quick gale]

No its at the top of the doc

[astral elk]

Dhoes leaving make it not count orrrr

[silver shuttle]

YOU SUPPOSED TO EXFIL LMAO

[tired roost]

Apparently

[astral elk]

Ohhhh

Fuck

[hybrid crow]

the bot crearly said that the voice is what counts and everyone assumed it was enough

[astral elk]

Whoops 😂 😂 😂

[silver shuttle]

Oh god

[left kelp]

perimeter was finished, were at dire marsh

[mystic parrot]

you can die

[astral elk]

Same....

[silver shuttle]

Or die, yes.

[tired roost]

bring frags if you have them but you might need 3 lmao

[hybrid crow]

yeah i did 5 or 6 runs per reset when we were doing perimeter

[tired roost]

Oh we doing rook thats right

[hybrid crow]

but apparently none of them counted so

thats great

[zinc pier]

logically what would mannequins be doing on a ship that was designed to transport 30k people in cryostasis?

[hybrid crow]

thats fucking great

[silver shuttle]

Just fall dmg LOL

[tired roost]

Good point

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0 Full guide for today if you need it

[copper pine]

thats why i'm thinking they're coffins/caskets or something...

[left kelp]

oh i thought you were still doing perimeter runs, thats a relief, rest bro you need it

[hybrid crow]

I contributed NOTHING to the arg whatsoever

[silver shuttle]

Making shells? All in all, good point.

[olive mirage]

They aren't coffins... They are cryochambers.

[agile bluff]

We're gonna need the reasons for quitting == no points explained beacause we can't keep just telling people to join a voice chat to know why

[south sky]

That technology didn’t exist when it set off

[silver shuttle]

True

[graceful hawk]

Same difference without power tbh

[brisk garden]

I mean it could have been people who were gonna be defrosted before the whole.. incident happened

[mystic parrot]

I promise you ive been with them all night trying quit and no quit runs. it doesnt move at all when you quit.

[raw iron]

Did the cryo malfunction perhaps?

[copper pine]

Do we know if any of the travelers aboard the marathon went to tau ceti and then returned to the marathon before shit went sideways? there are a lot of entries about some sort of anomaly potentially 'infecting' people - I'm wondering if those 'caskets' were maybe used for containment of those infected?

[wary kayak]

WHAT I MISS WHILE I WAS ALSEEP BOIS

[tired roost]

As far as i know they did not go back aboard the marathon. this is not a lore channel tho

[quick gale]

PLEASE this is important spread the word. YOU need to exfil OR die in your runs or they do not count!

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

[tired roost]

Okay. I believe you, but can we get some kind of explanation here without having to go to a different server?

[copper pine]

So, I'm not allowed to post theories like everyone else here?

[agile bluff]

I hear you, and I'm not saying you're lying - but it keeps getting posted "100% accurate proof true for real join the voice chat". If you want buy in from community people, you're gonna have to explain it.

[mystic parrot]

weve been testing all night, learned rook is fine to run and you cannot quit after finishing terminals

[tired roost]

Ur not in trouble just wrong channel

[mystic parrot]

I just explained it to you...

[normal flame]

Those UESC branded "coffin" shapes look at lot like a small s'pht compiler shape

[quick gale]

There was exstensive testing at the lowest playerbase hours last night we did not get absolutley any progress when not die before leaving the game

[wary kayak]

I only see 2 progress bars currently..did we complete one?

[mystic parrot]

This^^^

[quick gale]

No its at zeor rn

[agile bluff]

Ok so the proof is that you've tested it? Awesome!! Thanks - That has never been said till your message 😂

Literally the first time.

[copper pine]

I'm not worried about being in trouble, I'm wondering why you're telling me I'm posting in the wrong channel when I'm not talking about lore per se- I'm discussing what we see on the cams..

[calm river]

How goes things in the marsh?

[brisk garden]

no they said so earlier it just got drowned in the chat X3

[mystic parrot]

brother im begging you please play it safe and just dont quit, just try to die quickly why not?

[brisk garden]

also why are people getting so hostile >w>

[zinc pier]

the Marathon is earth's moon, hollowed out and filled with tech to function as a gigantic space ship.
it carried 30k people to tau ceti, in cryostasis. the trip took 300 years

I fully expect to find frozen corpses in there

[quick gale]

Dude idk what to say there is like 10 who where testing all night long we have zero reason to lie.

[mystic parrot]

literally put some trust in ur comrades please

[brisk garden]

no it's deimos, the moon of mars

[devout hollow]

Was it not mars’ moon?

[mystic parrot]

we've been testing for hours

[brisk garden]

hence why mida is a bit angry

[agile bluff]

Guys - hold up, I'm not discounting your theory.

[normal flame]

mars moon bro

[copper pine]

hey heads up, @tired roost said this isn't a lore channel

[brisk garden]

well one of the reasons mida is angry anyways

[brisk garden]

X3

[copper pine]

lmao...

[tawny topaz]

^

[mystic parrot]

just play it safe is all i ask

[zinc pier]

I knew there was something about mars in there, my mistake

[tired roost]

Oh, you’re referring to the cam feeds? Well, the thing is part of this ARG said “GO, DEAR VIOLENT ONE, TO WHAT ONCE WAS HOME BUT NOW LIES HAUNTED.” Sounds like the marathon is just a ghost ship atp

[hybrid crow]

this ARG is going through a crisis and people are discussing lore

[quick gale]

Its not a theory because its been scientificly tested and confimed please join the vc and we can tell you what happened

[tawny topaz]

is your name a YOMI ref???

[wary kayak]

Logically speaking, I would think the devs would not encourage you to not really play the game and just be quitting/suiciding. So I say this without personal testing, but I would lean toward exfiling. Its what I have been doing this whole time to be safe

[agile bluff]

I"m on your side - it just needs to be explained 😂

[zinc pier]

what crisis?

[tired roost]

It doesn’t sound like they went back aboard the ship in my opinion but it’s possible @copper pine

[steep hatch]

What do I need to do to help out after work?

[quick gale]

You dont need exfil you just need either A DEATH OR AN EXFIL

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

[copper pine]

haunted implies something is there though - I would imagine instead 'Abandoned' could mean its flat empty..

[tired roost]

Yeah i honestly figured it would require death or exfil.

[marble hare]

i think biostock (algae ponds to bio research) is the focus

[wary kayak]

Also I will say, the first day we filled that progress bar so fast once we learned what to do. The second day everyone was pushing the "don't exfil" theory, bragging about their super fast runs cause they're suiciding etc, and we didn't make progress. Just sayin

[steep hatch]

Is it that arg doc link?

[hybrid crow]

well idk what happened last night but all cameras are at 0% and apparently everyones work was for nothing because we have to exfil or die for it to count

[tired roost]

Hmm, well have you heard the theory the Pfor or a UESC boss could be in Cryo Archive?

[mystic parrot]

yep

[molten hazel]

…so ya know complete a run and only completed runs make progress

[steep hatch]

Aight

[marble hare]

that link should explain what i mean

[brisk garden]

a whuh

[agile bluff]

Ok I'm off to bed cause this is getting out of hand - You're literally doing it again. You have to get community buy in by not gate keeping information. 😂 I trust you guys though 👌

[raven cobalt]

@agile bluff , around 7 pm cest ill try to gather some ppl to do the runs on a specified route 1 15 min interval without extracting and leaving. Then one followup with extracting/dying. If we get enough ppl to try one interval we should see results quick.

[steep hatch]

I'll check it out and try it out after work

[copper pine]

yeah - I REALLY don't think we'll see Pfor this early... if they were on the ship they'd also be all over Tau Ceti rn

[quick gale]

BRO if I was gatekeeping I would have not told you

[mystic parrot]

we are giving you all the info man

[wary kayak]

oh ok, that makes sense yeah. as long as you have a completed run

[tired roost]

lets do BIG PUSH later today

[tawny topaz]

ah forget what i said

[mystic parrot]

this is wrong. you can die. we tested this for like 6 hours straight when no one was on

[brisk garden]

nope, tell me what yomi is :3

[low zenith]

The thing that has been done when first progress was made was running 1 terminal and then exfil, seemingly hasn't been considered again since then. Just saying :p

[astral elk]

Holy fucking clip i just got

[copper pine]

except, we know for sure there's an assembler on board from the launch trailer

[marble hare]

do u need to hit both terminals and die/exfil within the same 15 minute window?

[mystic parrot]

correct but you dont really need to worry about the timer

[gritty frost]

Bungie are almost certainly hand-balling some of the numbers to 'encourage' progress, there was a clear overcorrecting at one point because NO progress was beign made, then it went basically exponential (the hand ball change to encourage players to continue) then it backed off (the fixing of the over correction) then they let the first set complete, now I think they've upped the requirements again because it's been happening "too fast" for the release schedule... don't take all progress as being equal at all times.

[hybrid crow]

stop vagueposting I'm not joining another server just post it here or write it in the masterdoc it doesn't matter

[tired roost]

What if we load into Cryo and there’s a boss like Orion controlling a giant UESC unit, we do know there is the green shooty things from trailer

[obtuse nexus]

This was discussed in the lore channel a while back, but deimos is really a more glorified asteroid than a spherical moon like we know them, so it's very probable that deimos was shaped into the sphere shape through the mining of it for resources to build the marathon itself. I'm fine with it no longer being a potato from the first game because it doesn't really work logistically.

[tawny topaz]

its a turn based combat game and one of the most well known tech is known as spoiled milk bc tldr guy who created it is named milk and he a goat

[agile bluff]

Enjoy your night everyone - see you for runs 🙂

[zinc pier]

no? the perimeter cams are all still up
cam progress resets every 10 minute cycle as long as the community doesn't reach 100% on it

[tired roost]

I agree with this. Bungie is helping they just don’t want to do too much

[brisk garden]

ohhhh

[normal flame]

ok wth is happening peeps, lets chill out for a sec and explain in turns...
So we tested that rook works and we need to either die or exfil to progress, quitting doesn't work?

[fathom trench]

*15 min

[brisk garden]

it also literally says in the codex that it is deimos that was used X3

[polar nacelle]

thank you for you service legend

[marble hare]

would you mind clarifying? so i don't need to do any of these things within a 15 minute window at all? a good run will just count for the next opening?

[tired roost]

Apparently

[mystic parrot]

correct! spent like 6 hours figuring it out

[mystic parrot]

We're just gonna focus on spamming runs, we believe the runs still get counted during the "receiving data" part

[hybrid crow]

the progress doesn't reset, it just can go down if not enough people does it, and its 15 minutes not 10

[normal flame]

death is the first step shoulda been enough of a hint huh 😄

[obtuse nexus]

Yeah it's always been deimos, and we know they mined it from the launch trailer where they're literally mining it

[quick gale]

PLEASE this is important spread the word. YOU need to exfill OR die in your runs or they do not count!

[mystic parrot]

^^^

[tired roost]

Cams are locked on if we reach 100. No one is still running perimeter

[wary kayak]

yeah exactly

[molten hazel]

That’s what I said? A COMPLETED run. That’s a run where you die or exfil. If you leave or close it’s a forfeited run.

[zinc pier]

cams went to a 10min cycle when I looked after perimeter was completed

[wary kayak]

^^^^^

[chrome turtle]

My game crashed during a run qwq

[mystic parrot]

Thats my b, misunderstood sorry!

[hybrid crow]

not really because is NOT the first step at all

[molten hazel]

All G

[zinc pier]

yeah, that's what I'm saying. there is no crisis

[tired roost]

Okay yeah good

[onyx swan]

what is this

[tired roost]

puzzle solving

For new map

endagme

game

[copper pine]

idk if even UESC has been able to get on the marathon and investigate successfully from this lore entry:

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0 check it out if you wanna help

oops wrong person

[tired roost]

THIS sounds like there is definitely something dangerous on board then.

[hybrid crow]

but of course no one is running perimeter, it locks at 100%, the problem is dire marsh was going well last night and now its everything at 0 and allegedly we were doing it wrong since the beginning

[grand hornet]

what happened to the progress on biostock, also only 2 got progress bars now?

[tired roost]

Here’s the thing @copper pine i’m a music nerd. I listened to the OST. There is 100% boss music.

[mystic parrot]

sleep

[hybrid crow]

and we would know why if people stop vagueposting

[copper pine]

Yeah, but what exactly... I have no idea. If there's a compiler like we saw in the trailer, then we're more likely to encounter the S'pht

[copper pine]

yo SAME hahahaha

[marble hare]

humbly suggest putting at the top of that doc a #1 pair of terminals to focus on, since focused fire is more effective against big health bars like these

[mystic parrot]

we were doing fine for the most part. it goes down when no ones running. people were asleep

[tired roost]

Maybe the S’pht actually i think that makes sense timewise

[copper pine]

The titles of the tracks are very telling as well

[chrome turtle]

what about the UESC in the UNAUTHORISED ACCESS screens on the website?

[brisk garden]

and the entire arg beforehand with mida wanting mars' severed twin back

[tired roost]

standard robotic units can be deoyed

deployed

[zinc pier]

get all 3 up in the same cycle

[marble hare]

probably it all just decayed because NA has the most players and the asian part of the globe... do they even have an official discord mirroring this one

less attention to this over there

so. sleep.

[hybrid crow]

afaik, when i went to sleep last night americans were coming online and the streamers rallying the people so i assumed it would be completed but its at 0

[copper pine]

I mean from that lore entry they HAVE TRIED to investigate the marathon, but there's been an 'incident' every time - so they've definitely been there, but I don't think they're occupying it like they are Tau Ceti

[gritty frost]

I mean the graph went from nearly level to this (the dark blue) then it backed off real fast, then it shot up. and sure that's related to people doing stuff but the rate of change didn't make sense unless someone was fiddling the multipliers, especially when you look at the second day figures which should have shot up, because people "knew" what to do. I can't get pictures of what I want right now on a work PC But it's pretty clear to me that someone was moving the levers here.

[hybrid crow]

thats impossible, and also not necessary

[zinc pier]

asians can speak english too buddy

[tired roost]

Yeah this is fair. Can’t be Orion or a uesc megabot then. But there MUST be something.

[zinc pier]

what, we can't get literally 300 people to play this game at the same time?

[tired roost]

What

[marble hare]

yeeaaasss but obviously there would be proportionally fewer asian players in the english language discord server...?

[tired roost]

What makes you think we only need 300

[grand hornet]

i wouldnt be surprised if they thought we were progressing to fast

[chrome turtle]

Mmmm, Makes sense. It does specify they're not coming BACK, they're being sent and CAN be deployed;; You're right.

[quick gale]

PLEASE this is important spread the word. YOU need to exfill OR die in your runs or they do not count! This will be important to our big push.

[brisk garden]

ya the entry states that they can easily deploy robots there but actually getting them out is really hard

[tired roost]

Well isnt the website due to expire in 6 days anyway

[zinc pier]

because supposedly 1 terminal run adds 1%

[tired roost]

I saw that in devtools

[brisk garden]

oh wait you sent it already guh

x3

[quick gale]

This is not true

[hybrid crow]

whu-whu-what are you talking about its not one percentage per person

[grand hornet]

defintely does not

[hybrid crow]

where do you get this guys

[gritty frost]

yeah 100% it went from basically no progress, to REALLY fast to get things moving then they overcorrected the overcorrecting and let it run, then they got the numbers "right" for day 2 for the second set, but perhaps they're a little too harsh

[hybrid crow]

WHERE IS OYSTER

nah im leaving

[copper pine]

It's WILD to me though, that UESC seems... almost frightened of going aboard the marathon.... what would frighten the UESC...

[tired roost]

Aw man

[hybrid crow]

yeah i know i was being dramatic

[tired roost]

Hopefully something i can DPS

[hybrid crow]

whatever im gone see you later

[raven cobalt]

We probably can. But to get all heads on the same goal and what run/how to do run is the hard part.

[marble hare]

scary monster aaa

[grand hornet]

its been shown in multiple trailers, its the compiler

[normal flame]

hopefully something I can DPS SOLO

[tired roost]

Aw have a good day man. Cya

[zinc pier]

probably it being -300c on board

[hybrid crow]

thank buddy ❤️

[tired roost]

LMAO im not gonna sugarcoat it, i doubt it

[brisk garden]

I think just the fact that there's alien life more advanced tech wise than humanity is what scares them, the uesc view themselves almost like the shepherds of humanity with the goal of making sure we as a species can continue to survive, so aliens that have committed hostile acts against them (on the marathon) and could also possibly be linked to the anomaly on tau ceti would be quite spooky for them X3

[copper pine]

One compiler against the WHOLE of the UESC though...? seems unlikely that's all that's up there

[tired roost]

Yeah i agree

[astral elk]

Wdym

[split willow]

If people pulled of soloing almost bosses all in D2 raids I'm sure you can figure out how to roll over something in Marathon

[grand hornet]

i mean it one shot our boy destroyer, seems like its a pretty strong compiler

[copper pine]

Runner shells are not state of the art though, against a compiler of course a runner shell would get obliterated

[rapid hearth]

I'd be scared too if I had to fight GCC

[tired roost]

i saw a thing in the dev inspect element stuff. The website said it expires march 16 but DON’T take this as fact i don’t know for sure

[sturdy tapir]

i mean, even a single compiler is a potential risk if your only real force multiplier is bots

[split willow]

For now what we need to dps is the panels. Go touch em

[merry fjord]

is there anything i can do after capturing the three cameras we have right now?

[astral elk]

I think your talking abt ur cookie

Idk tho

[tired roost]

Could be

[gritty frost]

Yeah that's the cookie / session expiration

[rapid hearth]

Touch the terminals on Dire Marsh

[brisk garden]

lemme get my starfire protocol and witherhoard :3

[astral elk]

Cookies expire a week after made

[split willow]

I mean that would be in line with Bungie saying ranked and cryo going live in second half of the month but I wouldn't expect it to be exact on 16th

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?usp=sharing We are pushing at 18:00 UTC

[gritty frost]

it refreshes every 6 days, standard JWT stuff

[merry fjord]

i will after work 🙁

[astral elk]

Uhhhhh what time in pt

[tired roost]

Yeah that seems interesting that they said second half of month tho.

[bronze garden]

Likely next week

[tired roost]

If terminals was all, we couldve been done by tomorrow theoretically

[mystic parrot]

11 am

[copper totem]

"Oh god no, not the GNU C Compiler!" - UESC probably (It's actually GNU Compiler Collection, but we only saw one compiler, so this seemed more funny to me)

[astral elk]

Or could be a week and a half

[candid crystal]

Morning guys any new tests don?

[astral elk]

Kk

[gritty frost]

it's the cookie/session expire refresh timer, not the website >.<

[proud gyro]

No point doing terminals rn, in 5-6 hours definitely

[mystic parrot]

lots. dont quit out of run after terminals, rook is fine to use

[astral elk]

Nah just me staying up all night doing knife combos on teams ingame

[tired roost]

Damn i guess i’m dumb, and i took web design in college too

[candid crystal]

It's better to Exfil or die? Or just exfil

Is that confirmed?

[tired roost]

flip a coin

[mystic parrot]

die is faster

[mystic parrot]

yes

[tired roost]

Yes

[astral elk]

is useful but the gooooood stuff is in the backend api shit

[tired roost]

Yeah idk how to decompile JS files

[split willow]

I assume rook claymores self damage if you shoot them so it would be the fastest way to die, yes?

[gritty frost]

not at all, no beef 🙂 just making sure it's clear 😄

[tired roost]

Nor do i have access to bungie’s api

[astral elk]

Ik what most of the next parts are gonna be

[vivid shoal]

When the negative progress got ramped up yesterday it took the wind out of my sails.

[astral elk]

Just not how to solve them

[mystic parrot]

might be good to wait for voiceline to end before you die

[split willow]

I'll keep that in mind

[quick gale]

PLEASE this is important spread the word. YOU need to exfill OR die in your runs or they do not count!

[tired roost]

Yeah because didnt the bot say voice is key

[astral elk]

Login via dac via console doing funny stuff then do alot of posts

[mystic parrot]

mhm we havent confirmed if the full voiceline needs to finish

[cinder lotus]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

Everything you need to do for the ARG is in there!

[vagrant grove]

is this true? when was it confirmed

[copper totem]

To be fair, we only see one compiler continuously being teased. But I can't believe that's the only thing we'll find there. Whatever we'll find there, will be interesting.

[tired roost]

Does. Does that actually work

[astral elk]

We know what atleast 4 of the next steps are gonna be

[astral elk]

Yes

[desert mesa]

Might have something to do with the people still in cryostasis

[mystic parrot]

earlier today when everyone was asleep. we did several hours of tests

[polar nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/commander-jan-bervoets-army-siryessir-sir-yes-sir-gif-7962830338249752768

[desert mesa]

Or the bioweapon

[quick gale]

Yes it was tested by like 10-15 people in vc during hours where no one was doing runs.

[errant tartan]

what is a DAC?

[gritty frost]

the thing the chatbot sent you when you joined this server I think?

[tired roost]

A funny qr code

[astral elk]

https://gist.github.com/camohiddendj/ae87b90a4d49bae308d4d4c82740fe20 if you wanna mess around

[errant tartan]

it's user specific, right?

[tired roost]

Type / dac in new noise

[meager turtle]

Have we figured out the terminals for dire marsh?

[astral elk]

To login download ur dac as a png

[vivid shoal]

I think it's being soft timed. Like Helldivers does. Dial up or down the negative progress to match player forward progress so that completion hits when it's convenient. Like say, Thursday.

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?usp=sharing

[astral elk]

And then post a login to the api

[unborn bronze]

Marathon trivia

how many times have you died?

[split willow]

Hella

[astral elk]

I can bootup quiz rn if you wanna try and answer the questions lmao

[unborn bronze]

no

we shouldn’t sequence break

even if step one is hot stinking shit

[astral elk]

It doesnt sequence break or unlock anything

[split willow]

Most likely but it's also good to figure out what works and what doesn't when we can make real progress

[astral elk]

The control panels unlock stuff

[vivid shoal]

Absolutely!

[tired roost]

Thank you @astral elk i saved the picture and link

[astral elk]

Np

[unborn bronze]

I mean, I’m curious about the questions, but if it’s something specific, i.e. something we need to find on the maps, and we do that in advance, then that’s pretty much sequence breaking

[astral elk]

Ill put the first in chat

Holdup

[fresh bolt]

I really hope they use the w'rkncacnter to bring about the seasonal reset. I think it would be a really cool thematic way to justify the reset

[split willow]

I believe it's our scheduled debt payment withdrawal but that works too I guess

[unborn bronze]

I think “periodic payments” is the in-lore justification for why we lose everything every quarter

[spare lichen]

true, but honestly the idea of seasonal reset happening because "rent is due." is kinda funnier to me

[deep haven]

Can we still level up our DaC?

[fresh bolt]

That is hilarious 😂

[tired roost]

Are u fr 😂

[agile bluff]

I had to check because i didn’t feel comfortable - You’re absolutely right, it was said. My apologies @quick gale and @mystic parrot You guys are goats and I should have trusted. Even then I was a bit of a dick in my messages - so sorry for that too. Obviously I’m more tired and Grumpy than I thought 😂 - ok now i’m going to bed

[median oxide]

If we're looking for a streamer to rally behind, Bearki is doing terminal runs right now

[spare lichen]

yeah it's said in the intro by oni when you exfil or die from the tutorial

[tired roost]

ty

[mystic parrot]

all good

[quick gale]

Your good man no worries this peice of information is just super vital so it sounds like we are forcing it heavy

[silk geode]

Whats the current status?

[tired roost]

Still dire

Marsh

[unborn bronze]

cool

[spare lichen]

yo it's goin up

more uppies pls

[tired roost]

What are we running rn, biostock?

[cinder lotus]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?tab=t.0

[tired roost]

Gotcha

[unborn bronze]

while you’re at it, could you pull up their host and check out what “8cc7022a-3a97-49ec-9ea2-5360971a287c.png” is? i.e. what it looks like?

[astral elk]

Thats camos dac png

You login with ur dac png

From #leaderboard

[unborn bronze]

yeah, but I’m wondering what camo’s dac looks like

[astral elk]

Never post your dac

[vagrant grove]

they're identity tokens

[errant tartan]

where do you use the dac to login? /api/indx/auth gives me a 403

[unborn bronze]

I know what they are

[young wing]

just wiped a squad as rook on outpost with just the suppressed pistol lmao

[astral elk]

Ugghhghhgh i got logged out of my dac gotta get a new one

[spiral gull]

Luminate and MyNameIsByf are about to start running terminals

[median oxide]

Are we still hitting the second terminal during the retrieving connection specifically, or did it turn out that's just when the bar refreshes

[tired roost]

so am i

[unborn bronze]

is Camo a runner from here, or is it just another character in the story?

that’s pretty much my question

[tired roost]

we should start pushing

[late wing]

GUYS never post your DAC 2 people had it as there profile pic yesterday

[copper totem]

Touch grass: ❌
Touch terminals: ✅

[bold dune]

the game frequently crashes when opening the map mad annoying

[sharp willow]

Another day of term touching

[vagrant grove]

yeah that wasn't part of the rules during perimeter, and null hasn't told us otherwise

[tawny topaz]

happened to me once only guess im lucky

[median oxide]

Thank goodness, the timing was the toughest part

[errant tartan]

where do I use my DAC?

[vagrant grove]

nowhere at the moment unless you want to hack the backend

it was part of the original marathon ARG

[unborn bronze]

afaik it’s not about the pattern itself, but the exact file. I don’t know if it’s a matter of name, or if there’s more in the PNG structure (I’m not too familiar with that)

[errant tartan]

okay, thank you

[late wing]

but still I would just keep it to myself

[unborn bronze]

sure, it’s whatever

I just don’t know who ‘Camo’ is

[prime stratus]

hard to make progress i guess.

[quick gale]

PLEASE this is important spread the word. YOU need to exfill OR die in your runs or they do not count! This was confirmed by overnight testin during dull hours where 10-15 people in vc did multiple tests with and without leaving.

[sharp willow]

We gotta start making wartime propaganda

[fresh bolt]

Dying does count, leaving does not. Correct?

[prime stratus]

thats really important to know

[brisk garden]

[spare lichen]

buy nades and nade yourself when done is the play then

[quick gale]

Yeah its game changing

[rain bay]

This discord doesn't have vc's right

[fresh bolt]

Oh damn all my runs did not count 😂

[prime stratus]

Go stand on UESC troops to end your run then i guess.

[floral ocean]

Camo’s one of the smarter dudes in here lol

[cyan lantern]

Exfil and death are equivalent tho right

[graceful hawk]

Rook, and suicide UESC bots works wonders too

[prime stratus]

Rook and poison plants also

[late wing]

very important spread the word folks

[unborn bronze]

ok, that’s what I wanted to know, thanks

[floral ocean]

Google doc has a link to a new server specifically for breach protocol stuff with VCs

[sharp willow]

Alright finishing up eating and back to the grind

[cloud juniper]

hey guys, should i hold off on making people go in, i saw a message earlier that 8am is pointless

[winter barn]

if u mean from server slam yeah progress didn't transfer over

[quick gale]

YES

[floral ocean]

Uhh do we have enough people up right now?

[unborn bronze]

depends on how long you’re planning to stream for/if you can get them to go online within a specific window

[fresh bolt]

I meant my diremarsh terminal runs yesterday. I left each one trying to speedrun

[tired roost]

Streamers about to start running. We should too

[winter barn]

wait I'm dumb wrong channel im sorry 🥀

[unborn bronze]

in 3.5-4.5h would be best I think

[winter barn]

my blind ass thought this was #🗣marathon-general-chat

[merry fjord]

i mean, i get that theres increasing decay but if we have enough to make slow progress do we thing we could?

[cyan lantern]

If we can push before reset we can probably get outpost today but only if we have a streamer push as well

[graceful hawk]

Forgot about those pieces of garbage foral, thats a better play

[merry fjord]

also id be down for grouping later today when im off work and doing some runs

[tawny topaz]

your ass is blind? what abt your eyes are they ok?

[unborn bronze]

Biostock progress unironically decreased right now

[prime stratus]

that how i ended most of my run yesterday anyway

[floral ocean]

So far I just heard in here that it’s Lumi, Byf, and bearki right? That should be enough I think

[winter barn]

they're worse actually

[mystic parrot]

you can push if you're super impatient but its best to wait for reset at 18:00 utc

[merry fjord]

what time is utc rn

[floral ocean]

Sheesh

[thick current]

How goes the terms

[merry fjord]

google nvm im stupid

[thick current]

We finish any cameras?

[mystic parrot]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wq81M-YOlCc0KFXFribEy-tTrNyb94sW4coLQ31yKVs/edit?usp=sharing

[unborn bronze]

I think the optimal time to push would be in roughly 3.5 hours. EU would start the ball rolling, and we could maybe keep the momentum when NA gets online later on

[sturdy roost]

thank you!

[deep haven]

That’s why I was saying split teams up, have people start running at 16:00 EST

[unborn bronze]

for now it would be best to coordinate a single path and spread it to as many active runners as possible

[astral elk]

Cant login to dac i think they patched it i got 403d

But

First question for quiz is

[floral ocean]

Ooh new doc

[astral elk]

quiz game currentTier: 1, questionText: 'PARTIAL DATA SENT :: NOT ALL RECIPIENTS RECEIVED FULL SEQUENCE :: RECONSTRUCT TO PROCEED', expiresAt: 1773065758649,

[merry fjord]

theyre watching

[mystic parrot]

we worked hard on this one 🫡

[unborn bronze]

after some consideration I have to agree that Biostock (presumably Algae Pond to Bio Research) would in fact be the optimal path to finish first

[brisk garden]

oh darn I remember studying this one but I can't remember gosh

[unborn bronze]

it’s possible that EU can solo it, and then decrease the player diffusion over these three

[sturdy tapir]

anyone know if Rook terminals count?

[thick current]

Oh damn, did we lose momentum on biostock last night?

[unborn bronze]

yes

[late wing]

yes

[astral elk]

Then i also got info on the other games in the api

[thick current]

Yes

[sturdy tapir]

sick thx

[nova trench]

Any one wanna play together sometime lol my friends don’t have the game

[astral elk]

Decryptor will be 8 step puzzle iirc

[floral ocean]

Were you able to get any guesses on that second gate with the password yesterday?

[astral elk]

Nah

[floral ocean]

Tough

[polar nacelle]

looks like we have 3 different times, they are relatively close to each other, maybe we really have to make 3 teams and keep the momentum

[astral elk]

I literally had no ideas what it couldve been

[vagrant grove]

what is this?

[astral elk]

Yeah dac login is giving me 403 forbidden and a string of text and numbers

[astral elk]

Stuff dw bout it

Not relevant to this step

The current one

[vagrant grove]

oh you're cheating, i see :p

[cloud juniper]

i think milo is making a video later on what an arg is and why normies should care. so that might help. bc most people dont know its even happening.
