#Digital Remains Puzzle

also, did you try the line from the seizing thing with the vertical line on 67?
darn i was hoping for some crossed out letters or something
I think someone had mentioned that these two should line up on Josh's arm.
The arm is faintly seen in is face... I'll see if I can get this
it's not lining up, but I'm trying to figure out if anything can be sitting right in this spot once it is lined up:
i still want to know whats going on in the grass here
There are deef rabbit holes in the grass, beware!
Can someone find this arm for me? (or tree or something)
LEVEL UP: You are now level 7!
does anyone know where this was taken? bowery ballroom maybe?
Like Emer said: 110
yeah still don't see it
The two lines are the same: left contour of his arm
I might be trying the wrong spot
it just seems like josh has too much definition in that picture (dudes jacked man! lol)
I’m not sure if it’s not only a stain/grunge overlay
You can see it at the top with more contrast
i thought i had it with the guitar case
but i don't think it lines up... i tried it flipped horizontal and its so close
it's been puzzling me for a while. I see a long skinny arm all the way through the image. What looks like a 'bracelet' / tyler's tatto at the top along the wrist.
they did a good job messing with this one
I think that goes to his face right above it
i have an obsession with tylers shoulder tape... it's perfectly symmetrical everywhere except here, and the logo lines up
Seeing this converted… I kind of see the outline of a bishop looking up to the light 🫥

OMG I LOVE YOU 🫶
Yes
Hey all looking at Scaled and Icy and I'm 99% sure there is a secret message hidden in the scales on the inside cover... did anyone ever figure this out
Flipped it upside down.... definitely seeing a Y and 5
Right side up I'm also finding letters.... does anyone see anything I'm missing
Totally meant to post this in theories not DR oops
Good morning friends! Has anyone found anything new?
GUYS
I was looking at the scales… I don’t really see anything, except some of them look like paths? Idk
Guys, I was busy elsewhere in 2020 and unfortunately not involved in the LOC ARG. But all the files are archived online and I looked at everything very carefully afterwards. Some of the puzzles were really tricky and there were ciphers like Railfence and Solfa.
With that in mind, I think it's possible that it's harder than we initially thought (my level of concerns 😉
I really can't let go of DR and still suspect they left us something. And I keep coming up with new approaches. But at the moment I'm so busy at work that I can't fully pursue these approaches.
I therefore hope that one of you can take on this task.
We know that there are 2 doubles and a lot more pretty similar pages.
What if the doubles were the hint to identify all pages which could be twins? Like in the game MEMORY (Digital Remains!). Ty also mentioned the “FLASHBACK” before the final fight.
If you then take all these page numbers next to each other and convert them to letters, maybe there will form a sentence vertically…
Example:
the two tower pages, the two circled Clancy pages etc. pp.
14-92 A D I B
59-90 E I I O
From here there are oc many other ideas possible.
What do you think?
Maybe someone could create a collaborative google sheet.
Additional thoughts:
- if we decode the digits one by one there are only the letters A to I possible. That could mean we sometimes have to see which combination makes more sense (eg 19 = AI or S)
- in purely mathematical terms, 60 pairs are possible (disregarding the title) and maybe we don’t need all
- the occurrence of the zero could mean we must consider hex codes (if we don’t translate it to the letter O)
- we of course don’t know yet if we must arrange the pairs with ascending numbers
- maybe we also need anagrams later in the hunt
- It will certainly often be difficult to agree on what can really be categorised as a couple. That's why I find it the easiest way to use a spreadsheet with many columns (I hate spreadsheets lol), if there isn’t a better solution.
I looked through the LOC levels too, although I only read the wiki summary. I’m super intrigued by the Solfa cipher. And I would love to see the archived files.
I was thinking about how you tried different grids, and I was wondering if you tried different number orders for the layout? For example, naturally we would probably start left to right (1-11 in the first row). I’m curious if you tried different ways
LOC Archive: https://github.com/lvlcnrn/lvlcnrnusb/tree/master
But what do you think of the MEMORY PUZZLE?
Oh yes I am into that
But I have to read it slower to fully understand what you are thinking lol
It’s the first time for me that there is a clear connection to DR content
Oh sorry, I thought it was understandable
no it is
i have to read things twice to get it, that's all lol
i wonder if we could consider the lyric pages obvious pairs?
Dunno, and then which ones? We should start with the most obvious ones. As I said, maybe we don’t need all of them (only 11, 14 or 25 😉
If only I had the time!! I would reverse engineer the process like expecting an URL translate .com to numbers etc.
Yeah totally
I’ll take some time tonight if the kids aren’t up late haha
Here’s a silly idea, take all photos of Josh (or Tyler) and order them based on the direction he is facing.
You might be onto something
A clue that we are looking for pairs is from the PS teaser - we needed 2 pairs for the url and password, so will more pairs get us somewhere??
Or another thought… maybe it’s not just pairs but “groups” like how more than 2 images fit together… idk I’m thinking out loud
Which was most likely not intentional, but was used by them AFTER the puzzlers got to that point.
Also: To stay with the MEMORY game, it probably makes the most sense to find pairs first. Otherwise it is too overloaded right from the start. We can always expand if necessary.
I will start a new thread so we can concentrate there. I also invited the guys from the Code Cracking server and they wanna start a VC Thursday or Friday to dive in.
@lucid valley Not seeing your forum, so I'll post some stuff here for your memory theory.
When it comes to pairs, the lyrics have pairs. Some songs have more than just 2 pages, but sticking with the pattern of 1 page in between, you have these:
30-32: Next Semester
44-46: Backslide
52-54: Midwest Indigo
68-70: Vignette
98-100: Oldies Station
numbers in between would be:
31, 45, 53, 69, 99
4,9,8,15,18
4,9,8,6,9
One thing to note
19-21: These aren't the same song, but are in a similar pattern (Overcompensate and Backslide)
31 - Next Semester
45 - Overcompensate/Backslide
53 - Midwest Indigo
66 - Vignette
99 - Oldies Station
and each one, aside from 45 overcompensate/backslide, is an image from the MV
I'm now curious about this combo of songs: overcompensate/backslide
Thnx dude, didn’t have the time yet.
It will get tough to decide what common category the pairs should follow besides obvious visual ones. So „same song“ is a potential category but I don’t know
20 - Overcompensate/Backslide - has to be related
Do you have the time/skills to set up a collaborative tool like google sheets for us to work in?
not sure what you're looking for but here is a public google sheet doc: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17-dQizIbPdJZ9QwFMqJknYttSgUNjBS3m3AA7pDjquU/edit?usp=sharing
I think that’s a good idea, to start with obvious ones that overlap, like the lyrics pages
If we see other patterns emerging we can always go back
All 5 of these are from the mvs.
It could have just been production crew but if you darken the image it's obvious there are people in the seats on the side where the light is coming in
It seems to me he wrote lyrically as one song, but turned it into two later... but it is interesting how the lyrics to overcompensate changed so much
yeah I remember someone finding that when we were going nuts with the puzzle.
RITN and Drag Path are also from the same page
63-65
found something
i can try to share with a screenshot...
these are the lyrics pages. the only pair that doesnt follow the pattern is 19-21 (overcomp/BS)
please feel free to check my math
also, worth noting ATROFD is not 2 pages apart, but 3
made a forum for the MEMORY puzzle: https://discord.com/channels/269657133673349120/1268250505872805958
Awesome. Yeah it seems like they add the lyric pages with First Lyric Page, Music Video from Video, Second Lyric Page.
@real plaza overcomp/BS does follow the pattern - 19+21 = 40, not 30
Btw this is not a special pattern, the numbers will always be reduced down to the same single number, no matter how you add them together (19 + 21 or 1 + 9 + 2 + 1), and this will happen for any sequence of numbers, not just these ones
Ahhhh sorry I see the thread in the memory puzzle now, my bad!
Yeah I realized that, I was so bummed I thought I had found something cool
I get it! I've been really deep into the weird image filenames on the TOP homepage and I keep thinking I found something just to learn that it's nothing :/
I completely agree! Knowing what they decoded in LOC days, there's a huge possibility we just haven't found the answer yet. And it also gives validity to a LOT of theories, knowing it's not out of the realm of possibility!
Wait YES! and with the duplicates ‼️
It lets me highlight a bit on these pages, this is what it is for the first page lol

OCR is still bad on images like this
What’s ocr
Optical Character Recognition
In spanish: "The most fortunate" "The oldest"
Neddddd
That was cool indeed, i just got here so idk how you got that haha
It's crazy how many little secrets and easter eggs were in DR
I was just highlighting random DR pages and seeing what the thing gave me lol
That came from the death eaters text 💀 idk how but yeah lol
Super coincidence haha
This is the cover page
Ohh?
if we're talking doubles, maybe there's something in those pictures that were the same filesize after all?
That's a good idea... I didn't think about that
HOW ARE YOU DOING THAT? I ALSO TRIED OPENING DR ON MY LAPTOP AND THE FILE IS ZIPPED AND I CANT EXTRACT IT FOR SOME REASON 😭
Idk 💀 I just held down on the page and it started highilting things lol
I’m on mobile
It's just finding random shapes that look like certain letters/words/characters
Yeah
I’m on my mobile on DR, and when I zoom into page 11 it pixelates… and it makes an interesting pattern. When I zoom into the page above as you see, it doesn’t do that. 🤔
Doesn’t it look like Josh’s Van Gogh arm?
no
its too specifically striped
i think?
it looked too straight at first hang on
yeah theres like
When I look at the close up I think you’re right
idk its not a perfect match
Bummer, no wonder I could never find a matching arm
Yeah not even close 😅
LEVEL UP: You are now level 9!
This one bothers me for so many reasons, I think it’s the weirdest photo
And it’s number 11^2
i really can't make much of the blur on the edge of the image but i did find another angle on his tattoo
The blue stripes are like definitely stripes when you look closely at the photo… maybe it’s a shirt? It does still look like someone’s shoulder/arm to me
I agree it definitely looks like stripes and not Josh’s tattoos. But now that I’m really looking, I’m not sure it’s an arm. Look at the bottom. I originally thought that was a hand but now I’m not so sure. The shape isn’t right.
The stuff Tyler is coming up out looks like either like wood shavings or maybe some kind of hay or straw to me. It makes me think of a hayloft in a barn. It might have a hole in the floor that climb up through using a ladder.
Anyway maybe that shape is some kind of animal or piece of furniture? If it’s wood shavings maybe there’s a clue in the craving single ver mv?
Hm just rewatched and I don’t see anything.
The stuff does look like woods shavings, and also reminds me of that crinkly paper packing material
The more I zoom in the less it even looks like a thing… like, it looks like it’s actually behind whatever the black is, if that makes sense?
I swear I see a dog’s face
Nope i see a dog 2
It kinda looks like jim
It appears to be Jishua's arm
Josh has a tattoo of Jim on his left arm
lol why did i think "schrodinger's arm"
since there's indecision about this 💀
how
its just the way it pixelated
it doesn't quite match with his arm
Idk sometimes I see it sometimes not, it’s definitely not his arm
I think it’s the PS video, someone pointed out once that it looks like Clancy coming out of the manhole in Dema and I just watched it and there is some of that wood shred stuff on the ground at that moment. I had to watch at .25 speed to be sure lol
To me it looks like something we haven't seen yet...
I think you’re right, but also in the mv when he’s coming out the manhole the shot is from the side. We don’t see it face on like the photo
Yeah the cat in the hat. Mystery solved
Yeah that was me. The grass/dirt looks exactly like the one in the video.
And they can just make a photo while shooting the video. It has not to be a still frame.
The black background looks like a curtain
It looks like hay to me... like he's climbing out of it?
To me it kinda looked like the packaging with boxes. Like those crates they use in movies like Indiana Jones.
I’m thinking there’s a full image that will come out when we get the ending to Paladin strait
I think so too, it makes me think he jumped down into the hay… from the tower. Teaser image imo
YESSSS I THINK THIS MIGHT END WITH CLANCY FALLING THROUGH A TRAP DOOR
That makes so much sense actually
im not quite up to date but is there any put-together (at least as much as we know) puzzle? if there isn't then i don't really know if this is accomplishing much...
the original board got flooded with trollers so it's probably not the answer but lmk if otherwise
can we make tyler's next semester shirt match the cat in the hat?
also are there any theories about what 73 is?
Do we already know what these graphics mean in the bottom right corner of page 26?
It’s the red collage. I enhanced the contrast
First I saw a car left and a person on the right, but considering the distortion pattern it now seems to me the left side is doubled and the right is just a flame
I've been playing with 73 and 75, I thought it looked like tyler's face from 75 in 73
I tried overlaying them - they kinda fit - or just looks cool....
Thank you - You've made loadsa cool observations
Gotta go eat
Also: did someone compare the journal and DR and which images are in both?
I thought I posted this here but guess not... I was looking for pairs, and I was messing with number 120 (the all red image) and it reminded me of those kids decoder puzzles, where you put the red plastic over a picture and you see secret messages.
This also reminds me of that ☝️
I think I saw someone in reddit did that maybe?
found something guys. hopefully i can show it with screenshots
120 and 109 have some dots that line up
so here we have 120 in "difference" mode (idk, in figma it's one of the image options) and 109 in "hard light" mode. i found these easiest to spot the dots
zoomed in, there are the dots, if i move 120 to cover 109 they line up perfect
Haha, that’s what I did in DR Memory. These two go together (for me)
Cool that you found it also!!
The images in the cd booklet are slightly different and you can see more of the image for Paladin strait. I think it’s interesting these songs are used for these pictures as well.
I’m so sad my cd didn’t have this 😭😭
Okay. I wanna pitch in with the digital remains more right now
your cd had no booklet?
it's on the right most flap
Nope 😭
how
Idk ))):
did you check in the right flap
Yeah
weird
Firstly, I have a few questions- i’ve never attended a show before, but i’m willing to bet that they will play clips of the digital remains
That’s a good thought I bet that could happen
like that honestly might be what ends up cracking this
or like- what if the placement of the |-/ in the DR is relevant to the screens in the show
Do they play clips like that at shows?
I’ve seen clips like that
I have a question if you wouldn’t mind, do you think you could send me a picture of the front and back of the case I just want to see something
like hypothetically with this one - if a screen shows the logo on that side looking like that - we use this to reference
or possibly seeing an extended vision of this shot
can't do that rn, it's 1 am, sorry
That’s alright dw
it's the standard cover with the blurryface and stuff
they should've called this album inferno
or maybe the next album
dema burns down
My cd came in the red box set.. that might be why it doesn’t have a booklet but that’s kinda lame.. ):
I didn’t know it actually had a booklet at all
Until now
Y’all I just got back on DC and reading this thread took 6 hours 😂 you’re amazing for figuring out even the smallest details in this DR. s/o to everyone for the immense work ❤️
I can try and get pictures later, I’m at work
I have maybe found the right approach to decode it but need more eyes n brainz! Inverted the negative space looks like letters/digits. (and it’s NOT the death eaterz text)
OMG
Ohhhhh
I was so exited to find something, aaaah
I should have known that I literally have it in my bio 😭
At least now we know it’s nothing lmao
Yeah lol
But why include it in DR if it's nothing...
I guess
@hollow plover
Oh thank you, yeah mine is different.. ): sorry I’m not at my house rn so I can’t take a better picture but this is what mine looks like
No album cover on the front
No booklet
btw: there ARE Morse codes in some image names! I was always thinking this is old news, but then I couldn’t find any solution, e. g.
d_e_ath__eat_e_rz
.-.-...--...-.-..
decodes to “endemial”
rip jewel case
probably europe
mmmmm interesting
have we got anymore that we can work with?
im down to keep digging
endemial (ɛnˈdɛmɪəl ), endemical. 1. present within a localized area or peculiar to persons in such an area
seems legit my man let goooo
kind of makes me think of this quote from the zane lowe trench interview
"Then I realized that it's all about jurisdiction. There's certain places that I'll be -- whether it's mentally or physically -- where he has jurisdiction. If I can try to leave those places -- if I can try to stay away from those places -- then he starts to lose a little more of a grip and control of me. That's what Trench was, and what it is."
like blurryface is endemial to certain places maybe? or could be referring to the banditos or the neds even
could fit with the part of RitN that talks about the the doors
like behind those doors is where blurryface, insecurity, depression, etc. are lurking i assume
v-o-lds-o-y decodes to “arear” which makes also sense
Idk if we should connect the hidden word to the image name or not. In relation to the death eaters, vultures, that could mean, that their radius is confined or the power of the bishops has its boundaries.
Maybe they all together form a sort of story if you line them up chronologically?
But no one did that before? I’m flabbergasted lol
im not too sure you kno w
the deatheaters one has been around for so long someone mightve come across it once
but i think it could be another clue
I searched on reddit and here, nope nothing
i looked for the current published pages on the dema org site, theres no more 'password' pages uploaded other than the ones we know
Line what up chronologically?
The Morse-decoded names of the images
if someone can give me a list of all the names ill do the morse code rn hehehe
I’m confused. The digital remains images have names?
yup yup!
I thought this was the text from "d_e_a_th__eat _ E _ rz" did anyone ever find a connection for this one?
see because even then theres data in the name of the digital remains album itself
1717005586293
which converts to May 29, 2024, 17:59:46.293
Is that in the original pdf file metadata?
Oh does each image have its own file name? I wasn’t fortunate enough to buy the actual download
Nope
oh? did it not?
These image names are the ones from dmaorg used in DR
Ah got it
AGAGEEHFBIC
This one especially makes me mad
It’s the Clancy stole
Right. But what is the horizontal structure under their faces? Could be an arm rotated 90
How does it convert? I have very very basic decoding skills 😆
ah! it's numerical 🙂 hehehe
The file name of the downloadable zip was different for many
Oh yeah I don’t know about that part, it looks like a wad of aluminum foil to me lol
Regarding the morse codes… can someone else do the work? Where are all the diligent theorists?
Reminds me of fairly local
shift 4 - EKELIILJFM
lifelike
sorry literally killed my computer running caesar ciphers one sec hahaha
i’ve shifted it 26 times so there may be ONE 10 character word lurking somewhere amongst them
HAVE WE TRIED RUNNING THESE THROUGH GOOGLE TRANSLATE?
I think that's the Clancy shirt Tyler is wearing in Routines
shift 6 - GMGMKNLHOI
glomming
Why make it more complicated? Let’s first gather all image names and let’s see if they make sense.
Occam’s razor
I always have to restrain myself from thinking too complicatedly
thats all i got
its worth a try
i think its nice that i found debby in the cipher rotation though
Anagrams which are not complete are bad /s
alright bro im just trying stuff
And I am joking
ahhh sorry i usually use /jk
LEVEL UP: You are now level 12!
what does /s mean?
Satire
ohhhhhh
hehehehe
sorry man im autistic as hell i really struggle with emotion in text
Yesterday I had the flash of an imagination seeing us all in a room decoding. It was funny and scary at the same time lmao
do you think the EXIF data could have some inofrmation in
*information
also i really should finish my work hahaha
That has been examined long ago
i mean as in the context of things like the deatheaters morse code
if nobodies been looking for morse it may have been looked over?
oh damn
i do morse code manually
my great great grandfather taught me morse when i was little
Muhaha
That’s great!
Amazing
this may be quite a small thing
but this logo? can anyone find what its from, its on tylers pages with lyrics
ive reverse image searched it to no avail
It’s an Italian notebook brand. U can buy it. Forgot the name
Search the channel. It has been posted several times
bieffe! found it online just
i still wonder if there's any significance to this bird being in DR eight times? i know it's just the logo in the journal but is there a reason it's in there 8x specifically
Castelli
i've really go to dash though hahah ive been delaying my report all day and its due in like 2 hours hahaha
The website is a dot com castelliitaly
eheheheh thankyou thankyou
no problem
for _ev-i-D__ence I got "IN NEED"
That’s not possible: i is ..
The first letter must be:
T -
N -.
D -..
or
X -..-
Or the other way:
E, A, W, P (if letter is dash)
i neeeeeed someoooooone
Could the 8 birds represent the 8 bishops still existing?
Which is why they spaced it out thru DR, maybe relating a deeper meaning to the pic it’s in
this is probably a dumb question but how do yall decide where to put the spaces when you do morse code? Just try the spaces in different places til you find something that makes sense? i see what you're doing as far as converting letters to dots and underscores to dashes
I also have no idea how the spaces for morse code work and would like to know what they're doing too
i tried ba-dge bc it's a shorter file name and idk what I'm doing
if you assume the letter are dots then it becomes
..-... which was not recognized when i put it in a morse code translator but if you put a space after the dash it becomes ..- ... which translates to "us" but idk if I'm doing it right

Literally trial and error… first I put it in the translator as one long string and then start playing with putting spaces in different places… it’s kind of tedious sometimes 😅
That’s what I do. And then I try putting spaces all over the place until something makes sense… I actually think “us” is useful if the converted names make a sentence?
would be super cool if it spells something out
idk if i have the time/attention span to sit and randomly insert spaces for long but I'm gonna look at some others
Same… and some idk what to do, the ones that have dashes as well as underscores?
maybe an indicator of where the spaces actually go? idk
Oh maybe, that’s a good idea
i guess you'd have to play with it and test using different characters as the space to figure out if that's right
That‘s why I recommended the website dcode.fr
Makes all the work for you. It can try out all places of dashes and also has an option to only spit out words from a dictionary
Ah good to know. I looked at that one but it was… in French.
Dude, you can switch language
Dude I know
But I just went back to the other site I was using
Because I didn’t know the French one was much more amazing. Because it was in French.
oh dude
space between each new letter
long pause between words
... --- ... (SOS)
three short taps
three long taps
three short taps
pauses are determined by how quickly you're going really
yes i know spaces go between letters in morse code 😅 was trying to figure out how to place the spaces when trying to decode the file names from dmaorg
i found that french site that zero mentioned and tried a few things on there. not sure they're relevant
i got
ba_dge = us
se__elf = eats
o__ut = tweet or tax
_note = tie
w-eap-ø-n = rear
_maniac_Clay = thins
the others i tried either had too many possible matches or no words i was able to recognize
Hmmmmm that's very interesting. I wonder if we find all of these words if they spell out a hidden message
I got
__n_ot_myo_nly_fri_en d = retilled
e_sr__eve_r = creek or cask
These are very interesting finds
So I had a thought. This letter asks us how we found Dema org.... it was through a gif. I don't remember what the cheetah gif on the Dema sight says, it's been too long but did anybody try working with the letters in that gif again?
3lurr = he, is or see
this is the name of the cheetah gif
Ah you mean the animated letters?
the letters spelled out UNSTILLIDONTCKNOWOHISNREALINAMECDOOU?
Yeah
NICO NICO in the spaces between U STILL DONT KNOW HIS TRAL NAME DO U?
but that wasn’t the image through which the website was found
wasn't the gif that lead to dmaorg on the vessel store page?
Exactly
pretty sure that's what i found when going back through the previous lore/puzzle stuff
Yes but I know other people were looking into other gifs for a while
gotcha gotcha that makes sense. i just looked at the store pages but didn't see anything that looked unusual that we haven't already talked about before
@real plaza the angle was somehow familiar to me… now, with which other dots do they line up to exactly??? You know it! That’s unbelievable
Wait what do you mean?? Something on the BF cover??
what no way
And also now that the mysterious page 120 is connected to DEEF or rather FEED (which sounds similar to FEET) I have to contribute to the Vignette madness of letters in Josh‘s hair (made by feet)
Although I found it always too much of a stretch lol
can you post a screenshot, i don't see it
dude thats crazy
Rike. That came up in one of the morse translations i was trying last night...
has anyone tried cutting out the film perforations on page 121 and overlaying the holes with other images to see if there's anything there? just a thought
Thanks for this - also been decoding everything manually.....
I like this idea
@lucid valley i know you got "arear" for v-o-lds-ø-y but... check it out... i also got "etruen" - "E true N" - EAST TRUE NORTH.
I have chills.
Cool! Sometimes more than one word makes sense
Would also be the shortest trip from the island to Trench over the sea
i've done a bunch of morse coding. my eyes hurt.
not very well organized but if anyone cares.......
as i think about it, i hope this is the case. there are many things i just want to ignore right now.
i'm going to let the dots be one of them.
and of course i might be wrong.
_note could also be “TIE” how did I leave that one off
another thought i just considered
on the drag path lyric page could the letters the scribbled lines go through be important?
Guys, I have the impression we are the last crusaders for decoding. Everyone else is quiet or talking about openers lol
But if it wasn’t fun we wouldn’t do it
I‘m into bed now
I would be helping if I knew what you were doing but I feel like I would have to read through days of messages lol
we were trying to decode dmaorg file names using morse code if you wanna try that?
you can look at my two recent ideas too if you want? either using the "film perforation" on page 121 and laying it over other images to see if there's something there?
or investigating the scribbles on the drag path lyrics to see if the letters with lines through them mean something? lol idk if either of those will lead anywhere they were just suggestions/ideas
I did that ☝🏼☺️ but I definitely don’t know what to do with it!
okay, trying to catch @hollow plover up but tbh idk what we're really doing either 😅
There’s also this that zero has going on https://discord.com/channels/269657133673349120/1268250505872805958
oh yeah i haven't really attempted that yet
my last pre-tour theory is that maybe they'll release drag path as a surprise but if we have to find it first idk if it's gonna happen
cross posting this here
i cut out the film perforations and laid page 121 over 65 (drag path lyrics)
still not sure what the "no ai" thing means if anything but interestingly you can see an A and I through all three perforations
i could help with drag path! (: i have a lot of experience with the lyric pages in the DR because of the unreleased ones ive been decoding lol (sorry for the late reply btw)
wait actualy i dont remember do you know about graffiti and the others?
ah sorry i went to bed early. i have seen where yall were trying to trace the graffiti lyrics if that's what you mean? i was thinking of trying to see if the letters with scribbles through them in drag path might spell something but it's kind of hard to distinguish exactly which letters in some places
know what you meant (: i was just saying that might help alittle
oh okay, if you wanna give it a try feel free 😊
i looked at it briefly yesterday but didn't really start yet
alright ((:
i have work soon but I'll try to look at it again after
also, do you have a DR link that isnt just all of them in one picture 😭 cause i just got a new laptop and i opened the one i had on my phone and it lokked something like this 😭
i have dr but the fine size is too large to send, lemme see if i can find a link lol
there's this one with the page numbers #1252689799597392014 message
Thank you!!! (:
That definitely sounds like something! What if East isn't up? What if that's what the bishops have been lying with and when Tyler sings those lyrics in NATN he's mocking the bishops?
I think it's either dropping August 15th, because date tour starts and also Tyler posted the band symbol 5 times and it's made up of 3 characters 5x3 is 15, OR we have to find it. OR we might be getting something during the three show run in Colombus in October which just happens to take place over Trench's birthday
wasn't east is up one of the hidden messages in a clancy letter though?
Yes, but it could have just been teasing the release of Nico And The Niners... I could totally be wrong about that it was just a thought
it could be any day pre-tour imo
i thought 8/11 at one point bc of all the 11s
but then the bts tiktoks were lavish and atrofd (probably a reach but track 8 and track 12 could mean 8/12)
8/14 bc of all the 14s?
or maybe I'm clowning lol
LEVEL UP: You are now level 7!
That's totally possible
trying very hard to not get my hopes up
i don't want to assume it's coming and then be disappointed
i am still convinced something else is gonna happen but trying to not get my hopes up for any more pre-tour
Same we're definitely missing a piece of the puzzle
I'm convinced we've overcomplicated it since they've been using the "right in front of your eyes" thing but idk
If we REALLY try to answer their question from the letter (if it was a major hint): „How did you find h t t p : / /….“
there were 2 steps in 2018:
- someone discovered a changed gif and by adding the changed frames they got the URL. But it had that cryptic part
- we decoded that part in connecting the 9 dots to the BF album song order (which was already published in the Violation code, when opening dmaorg).
So, what if we combine the Clancy album songs „in an order that is new“ (pun indented). And that’s the new code? Maybe all these number hints were a help for this new code?
Maybe it’s a little bit more difficult and they also want us to find another page name (instead of clancy.html)
Like dragpath.html
Yesterday I tried all songs from their YouTube Clancy playlist with their appropriate album‘s song number e.g. Jumpsuit as 1.
But were too tired to follow this approach
lol torchbearer.html? idk
I'm impressed that you're still working on it, I haven't been following this chat in a while. Have you discovered anything significant after finding the trailer of PS?
Or just guesses?
Just guesses, pieces of guesses, smithereens of guesses
There are 11 songs on „The Story“ playlist
though idk know how to handle the IAC song
So it‘s:
IAC - Nr. ?
HDS - 1 (on BF)
JS - 1 (on Trench)
NATN - 9 (on Trench)
LVT - 2 (on Trench)
SA- 3 (on SAI)
STD - 5 (on SAI)
TO - 4 (on SAI)
OC - 1 (on Clancy)
NVG - 9 (on Clancy)
PS - 13 (on Clancy)
This is kind of what I have been thinking, but I wasn’t around in those days so I’m still pretty confused about how it was found in the gif
11923541913 and 1192354191_13 didn’t work (both only tried with /clancy.html
Also how about all the Goner clues
Doesn’t really matter. The single frames showed only parts of the URL which could be „collaged“ to a whole one
The main part was the Violation code
———-
maybe it’s something like:
iac11923541913
what other song order could make sense? I‘m on the road and can barely type
Yeah I’m still confused. I’ll look it up
maybe iac is 0?
just tried 0119235419_13 it wasn't that either
What if The song numbers are from the digital remains
I’m at work I don’t have my laptop to try it
Or the song order is from the alternate tracklist in the digital remains
ohhh i tried to play around with that alt track list at one point but never new what to do with it...
maybe I can look into that later
i am also at work right now and limited on what i can do but have we tried rotating the blurryface cover like the compass? that would be 3, 6, 14, 5, 8, 2, 1, 9, 4
That’s an idea… but I think people already consider “east is up” with the bf cover because of the order of the bishops in Dema or something, I haven’t looked at it
BUT I am thinking of the animated bf cover. I have the directions of the rotations of each circle drawn out at home
The rotation CCW was already in the BF cover
ah nevermind i think i probably knew that and forgot
Are there other lists of songs that come in mind? Idk if the yt playlist is the only legit take, just my first thought (also bc of the 11!)
And which order could make sense?
I‘d love to make a grid with all possible combinations of numbers and page names and then try out all of them
lol the joke setlist from twitter? but then idk what you'd do with intermission, ukulele how to, or encore
i just tried the alternate set list from DR, didn't work
Can you pls post it here? Thnx. Is it the order the songs appear in the DR pages?
Nah
which words can we gather as a substitution for clancy.html?
I would start with:
dragpath
drag-path
drag_path
drag%20path
———
torchbearer
yes i'll type it up in a minute, it's a mess on paper lol
You‘re so nice
yeah i didn't really think so but I'm trying to think of other times we've seen song lists
OH what about the setlists from evening with TOP?
that would include song s from other albums but maybe?
the set lists are posted in the top wiki
specifically the show at newport music hall (columbus) would be much of interest
maybe fly by? or some variation of that. i also thought it my be interesting to substitute the "found" part of the url with missing or lost but idk
okay here is what i did with the alternate tracklist from image 48 in DR
Ah ok THAT alternate list. I had in mind the order the songs are in portrayed by the pages
oh im doing that too
actually, it looks like they are portrayed in order, but i want to try using the image numbers
there's been a lot of hidden messages in the letters that haven't been used or figured out yet right? fly by is a lyric in overcompensate but is it something other than that? follow the torches hasn't been used for anything to my knowledge. MERUOIENPEPA. probably more? idk if any of those are helpful here
I’ve started working on drag path (: it’s so slow but I’m making progress lol
idk if this will spell anything though..
it might not, i could tell it was going to take some time to figure out which is why i didn't really get around to it myself yesterday 🥲
i can share what i have so far lol
this is the first verse XD doesnt really spell anything that i see lol
I have written a html script which you can simply open in your browser. It provides an input field for a list of URLs (line by line), checks the website under each URL and then spits out a screenshot of each visited page.

idk if i can help with this now that you started but your effort is appreciated
they definitely don't look like words the only way i could see it meaning something is if there's some type of cipher on top of that but idk where to even start on that
i'll try to think of some other ideas for this!
thats what i was thinking, if there is one it would be extremely hard to find it i think
and i dont think tyler would do that for the code
and aslo
there are a couple letter that are a little iffy if they count or not
like some are just barely touching the line
like this E
yes this was the issue i saw when i first looked at it
some letters i couldn't quite tell if they were touching
unless someone has another idea related to this i'd probably drop it 🫠
yeah )):
probably
im going to finish the rest of the song though ill see it through a little more
this is what i have so far if you see anything i should correct and you want to you can let me know (:
maybe @lucid valley's French decoding website can crack it if there is a cipher
what do you think of this t
what word is that lemme look at the main picture and see
its the last line
"etched"
i swear tyler is trying to be difficult
i don't think it's touching
i think you just summarized how i feel about all the current theories "tyler is trying to be difficult"
exactly 💀 i think our torture is his entertainment lol
i think he probably sees at least some of the stuff on this server and i hope he's gotten a good laugh out of all our insanity
p sure he said he "watches" certain fans online at one point sooooo I'd imagine he at least knows the forum is here
and we know they at least saw the figma stuff when this puzzle idea first got started
this is what i have
i might try the dcode site to see if anything pops up
ok (:
I'm half working on it.... mostly keeping up with the chat to see what they're onto but I plan on jumping back into it soon
So I might have missed something but how did you get these specific numbers?
YES I POINTED THIS OUT TO A COUPLE OF MY FRIENDS A FEW WEEKS AGO!
from the story playlist on youtube
just trying the corresponding track numbers to see if we found a new code if that makes sense?
so far nothing
nothing so far 😦
Ah ): makes sense
talking about the track numbers/violation code do you guys think we might be able to use the blurryface track numbers that aren't part of the code for something (7, 10, 11, 12, 13)?
I tried this like a month ago but got nowhere with it
I put the missing song numbers in the same pattern as the rest of the numbers (odd first, then even) and typed the whole thing into the dma org link but all I got was the error message. I worked it around several different ways but nothing worked. I also tried just 11 in the place where the underscore is to see if all the 11s Tyler has been hinting at were for that but that also didn't get anywhere. I also tried all of this backwards and nothing
welp there goes that idea i guess 🥲
A question regarding the drag path lyrics to you native English speakers:
afaik one wouldn't use the verb "to etch" in the context of marks left by dragging feet, would you? I only know the word in connection with acid etching or in the context of art as etching.
And the word "surface" doesn't really seem appropriate here either, as it tends to be associated with a much smoother surface . In contrast to the rather coarse traces that heels would leave in snow or mud, the word "etched surface" seemed to me from the outset to indicate a much finer trace. Which reminds me more of carving into a wall, for example.
Now thinking about that finer path, „that leads to my prison“ I want to suggest two ideas:
-
the term „path“ is used in the URL context:
„The pathname property of the URL interface represents a location in a hierarchical structure. It is a string constructed from a list of path segments, each of which is prefixed by a / character. If the URL has no path segments, the value of its pathname property will be the empty string.“
(interesting that it mentions the slash /, which was missing in Tyler‘s post in the livestream chat and was the whole time my main indicator, that we should search something online) -
are there graphical structures in the DR images that reminds of traces, etchings, that we have overlooked? The second title he gave these lyrics was „Devil‘s eyes“ and we‘ve got a lot images with a focus on eyes.
you're right that "etched" wouldn't normally refer to dragging feet
i would usually think of it as referring to an engraving or maybe a carving of some sort
Exactly
as far as this part goes I'm not sure how to go about finding any new links honestly
but there's been a lot of songs over the years referencing eyes, being watched, etc.
i have a theory that nico has somehow been watching clancy this whole time but that doesn't really help uncover new info
I mean we have only tried a couple of URLs
And like you I‘m thinking the solution (if any exists at all) won’t be as complicated as we thought of sometimes. It deserves „only“ the right mindset to puzzle the given hints together lol.
yeah i was trying to think of some other possibilities to try out
not sure what other numbers we might try but i was thinking of trying other names in place of clancy? torchbearer, bishop names (i doubt if it'd be clifford or ned or trash but maybe?)
Just use my script to automate variations 😉
He etched traces into the ice in the MI mv…
also carving the box in the craving single version mv 👀
though that was josh doing the carving there
Last night I was trying “Nills” in place of Clancy bc of the goner hints but I don’t know how to use the script and it’s too tedious by hand
I noticed this yesterday, and also I think there are some snowballs off to the right? You can’t see them in this frame and I didn’t pause to look for a pattern
But
I think the answer has got to be in the digital remains
not relevant to the current discussion but i find this part where he's just laying on the ice so funny for some reason lol
same, when he falls it's my favorite
okay i thought of something else
what if 11 is the number of characters in the url.... what would we call it, the path name? where the violation code is?
the violation code is 11 characters isn't it?
Yeah i guess it is, without the underscore
I was thinking of trying every song with a music video image in the DR, and that’s 12346891112 (correct me if I’m wrong), which is 11 digits… it doesn’t work in that order, but maybe it’s something to play with…
Oh wait duh with the underscore the violation code is 11 characters
tyler has also been wearing the violation code lately but idk if that's noteworthy as a far as decoding/the puzzle goes since we already have the violation code
Just open it in your browser. It’s a working html page.
Could you find any „carving/etching“ in the DR images?
I just get a google doc with code text
I saved it as .html . Can’t you open it in browser?
It has to have the dothtml as file type
I dm‘ed you the file
Cool thank you! I think I need to try it on desktop
Just saying: idk the max. limit but I‘d recommend trying 10 URLs then reload the page and paste the next 10
this is the only image that reminds me of "etching" and it also looks like a "drag path" - as in, the trails left behind of dragging/dropping something on a screen
I won‘t have time the next hours. I‘m invited. But if you need help with the html file just post it here.
IVE TRIED A LOT OF DIFFERENT URLS BUT NONE OF IT HAS WORKED SO FAR
not really an etching thing but what do we think about the rope or string or whatever from page 119 (clancy ultimus capitulus 25 page)
I’ve been thinking of digital remains + music videos because 1) they made a mv for every song and 2) during the livestream Tyler repeats the track numbers of each song about a million times.
That image is too overwhelming for me. TBH I’ve barely even looked at it
the coloration makes it hard to look at for sure
but you can make out several of the DR and Clancy's journal pages within that image and I wonder if the order there is somehowsignificant
I think some genius on Reddit did a thing where they replaced all of the cutouts with the actual images… it may have been the other one with all the ripped up pages. Maybe I’ll look for it later, or at least I’ll try messing with the colors of this one so I can handle it better lol
oh yeah they repeat the numbers a bunch but i think it's mostly in order due to the nature of the stream right?
I mean yeah, it’s definitely not out of place. But something that did stand out to me while watching the second time
wouldn't hurt to look at 🤷♀️
ohhh what about this i know they said snap back was the first mv they did
i wonder if we can put together more of the filming order?
Back 😃 I made a new version of it with all the appropriate pages from the journal. But I‘m not at home. I will post the collage tomorrow evening
Yes. This is definitely possible. The Midwest lake melted the next day. Lavish was not filmed in winter. Vignette was filmed in fresh snow. Maybe we can figure it out!
ATROFD was also not filmed in winter…
And didn’t he tweet about the backslide video? I may be misremembering…
without watching the stream i don't remember any more off the top of my head just that snap back was first bc of the haircut lol
These are the tweets I was thinking of, about the music videos
I think Backslide might have been one of the last videos they did because a lot of the vids - Vignette, Midwest Indigo are clearly in winter but there are literally cherry blossoms blooming in Backslide
Totally, and it makes sense if he isn’t joking around in his tweets, they filmed it after march 15th……
I think Backslide and Lavish were two of the last they filmed...
With Paladin Strait there's no way to tell because most of it is CGI
Navigating also would have had to be shot in Winter
wait so they didn't fight with lightsabers and use the force irl?
tyler didn't climb a tower???
Overcompensate was first! He says so in an IG reel
Something makes me think next semester was second but I can’t quite remember why I assumed it was shot a long time ago….
BTS posts from the crew said that it was shot in April
it may sound simple but if we rearrange the songs into the order of the seasons, and take the first letters or even the numbers of the track in their new order, could that lead to something?
Sadly no. Finding Kyber Crystals is very costly
I was thinking about this! It might be something!
Wait overcompensate being first doesn’t make sense because he shaved his head in snap back like @timber marten pointed out…
I’ve been thinking about something… if the ps teaser was put together last minute, and we were directed to it pretty clearly via BF twitter, and then the ps mv was officially released a few days later, what was their original plan? Like, how were we supposed to find the video?
probably not find - they would just realase the video normally
@real plaza is this what you were talking about? https://www.reddit.com/r/twentyonepilots/s/sWLAioUYaH
i have wondered if there's some significance behind the placement of the antlers or which pages are connected by the rope but idk how that would be determined
Yeah that’s the one
that's easier to read than the reddit one even so thanks for that
thank god
is it morse code

i dont think it means anything hahahah
worth a shot
There are SO MANY WORDS in it
yeah i feel like there's a lot of information that could potentially be hidden there but it's a little overwhelming to try to dissect the possibilities
… it starts with EAST, just saying
14 columns across
Quick idea: the pages which are also in DR could be start/end letters of words (in Morse)
Position in each row
3, 7, 10
5, 9, 13
6, 10, 12, 14
2, 7, 9
2, 4, 6, 8, 11, 13
3, 6, 8, 11, 13
so the first 2 means a 2 letter word?
playing hangman/wheel of fortune?
3, 7, 10 = 20 or (11)
5, 9, 13 = 27 or (18)
6, 10, 12, 14 = 42 or (15)
2, 7, 9 = 18
2, 4, 6, 8, 11, 13 = 44 or (26)
3, 6, 8, 11, 13 = 41 or (23)
never! I enjoy puzzles like this too much
weird idea. The 25 refers to rows 2 and 5.
Add those letters together you get
ncy capitu
Unscrambled -> paucity
smallness of number
or
smallness of quantity
nothing but interesting
I can’t look closely right now but maybe track numbers? Other than 14
Utica NY pc lol ugh 🤪
Are they doing a show in Utica (joking but also not)
Btw: binary decoding didn’t get to any result
Don’t numbers have more dots and dashes then letters? Maybe a more manageable thread of numbers?

What I already tried before: to overlay the alphabet
eyo wait have y'all found something after i was like hell nah this aint shit 
What intrigued me from the start were the two wrong S. Again a double like in DR. Along with all those double exposures in photos and graphics
The only explanation I found was MM25 (the right letters) mean 2025
Another shot in the dark. splitting the letters up into 2 words. The left 7 columns and the right 7 columns
mcclanupulu iscsalttuyi
pullman -> A type of limo or dinning car on a train
stylistic -> Stylistic lol
a Stylistic Pullman -> A limo -> Lavish
Okay I should stop using discord as my scratch paper lol
What did you mean by 'wrong s'?
but its so tempting to use it as a paper pad hehehe
In Latin it is „Capitulum Ultimum“
where does it start with east(?)
latin can also be translated to
ULTIMUS CAPITULUS
Nope, that’s definitely wrong
First row
I was thinking Clancy track list and then connecting it to the digital remains but I do love that Goner is on here … 😏
i believe it's just whatever they got from google in all honesty hahaha
sorry i feel super stupid, can you further explain
For the morse code idea ... what if you use dots for 1 type of image and dashes as another type?
lyric/text and then the non lyrics/text (portraits and such) ?
Tyler is so detailed in his lyrics. I can’t believe he uses wrong Latin
though it adds further complexity
ikr hehehe, blame the american education system
No I love it, makes me feel so much less cray cause I do these things too
maybe, the C L A N C Y letters and whatnot are already letters they gave us?
and we need to figure out the inbetween?
I'm not sure
This makes sense to me
capitulum is the lateral part of the humeral condyle that articulates with the radial head
also known as the capitellum
So like… the elbow? Or shoulder? My anatomy is not so fresh lol
What should I explain?
Start of first row
. .- ... - is EAST
i don't know if this helps or would even make sense but i wonder if the backing tracks where they say left right left right are potentially instructions? maybe some lines should be read left to right and others right to left?
dude you're gonna have to bare with me and literally explain it out
like which ones are you using as the '.' and '-'
Letters are long
Y'all are cooking
I think red squares are dash
Oh yeah you got it lol
ehehehhe thankyou ❤️
cool idea!
Left right then sideswipe
Like, tinder? Stupid I know but is there something else we swipe on?
Maybe the story about them meeting on Tinder is the real story 😂 (joking)
The unused sideswipe lyric has always gotten me - first, it’s such a cool word, I wish it made it into the song. Second, what does it mean of course
sideswipe makes me think of car accident but i don't see how that helps or relates at all
Ooooohhhh
Ohhhh yeah a car!!
wait ....
I didn’t think of that! I was picturing swords or knives
is it someone crossing a road?
you look left, then you look right, then you enter and a car hits you and you get sideswipped?
and as kids I was always told to look twice when crossing the road .... left, right, left, right
or driving left turn, right turn, sideswiped?
exactly I wasj ust going to say that
it'd be at a stop or yield sign
either way i usually associate that word with a car accident but idk how that would play into decoding
right i’m gonna sound annoying as fuck can someone explain where the east morse code is
WAIT THE GRAFFITI LYRICS DO TALK ABOUT SOMEONE IN THE ICU
like with pictures because i just can’t get it
are we looking from top to bottom or 
because if it does say east then it’ll be so much easier to crack all this 
I have theories that the meta behind a lot of this has to do with a car accident, but no distinct evidence
i’ve been working 12 hours n just wanna code crack but the brain no work 
I've been thinking that for a while too
Yessss OR the dangerous bend? It goes left right left….. right??
burning car, cars swerving in roads
Me after every work shift 😭
Like he went too fast, crashed, and maybe is in a coma?
like the map? are those the letters we need?
where neds horns are?
where the string leads?
routines in the night
Yeah I want to know what’s up with those strings
i think the strings are important
FR FR
Same
anyways i’m so so so tired
i’ll go for a nap n be back ehhehehe
have fun homies
i’ll be back tonight to code crack 
Also question does anyone have a list of all the songs they played for Ned's Cozy Fireplace in order because I feel like maybe that could also be something because that's the version of Bandito they put behind the video for the FPE announcement video
all the car stuff kinda makes me think of this
Google translated french wikipedia article
the French term is l'appel du vide
Yeah or like standing in The middle of the road??
yes exactly
Hmmmm there is French at the beginning of Overcompensate
I know we know what it says but could tie into that
the car stuff makes me think of maps of course
aside from next semester we have a lot of other car and headlights and road related lyrics with the only semi-positive one i can think of being in tear in my heart
this isn't related directly to DR but when considering all the driving/road/crashing stuff together i have kind of assumed that TiMH means that he's actually "driving carefully" for once not necessarily for his own sake but bc jenna is in the "car" with him with the car/driving being his mind/mental health struggles
aww this is cute and sad...
twenty one pilots: a summary
SO TRUE!!
LEVEL UP: You are now level 10!
okay wait i was thinking of this because of how many spaces are btw m and u in the 4th row
as for morse - first row spells "maggot" 🤮
second row - "slave"
third row - "slart" lol looking for more combos for this one
00100010010000
00001000100010
00000100010101
01000010100000
01010101001010
00100101001010
oh dang, wait third row i had wrong
"havent" or "select"
oopsie
i tried binary but didn't get anything that made sense
row 4 - "lures" or "leech"
2587896177278311719930186
ahhh poooo i didnt see that, sorry dude 😦
it's all good
i didn't post it but i think someone else did
we all think alike though lol at least 3 of us had the thought of trying binary
just for reference though:
Octal: 1044004210042520500524504512
ASCII: '\x19WY=M\x1bS\x0bGc\x1e\x12\x06'
Hexidecimal: 22 40 22 20 45 50 A0 55 28 95 5
no clue lmaoooo
ooooooo
"@ "EP U(_
again
nothing lmaoooo
I'm gonna look at the morse code idea later i think
and potentially test the left right sideswiped thing to see if anything comes from that
22 40 22 20 45 50 A0 55 28 95 5
could this be pages we need?
ah buggar, it has an AO
i can dream
ohhh shit do we need to use like a reversed caesar cipher
like reverse rotation and not forwards like usual
or maybe put it in backwards idk
Guys, don’t you read what happened bf? We shouldn’t do things twice 😉
Decoding things row by row COULD be an approach but keep in mind to divide a row morse string in multiple strings to get different solutions.
yeah i'm trying that, it's not panning out
Last row backwards „ENTICED“
Sorry, what does „panning out“ mean?
Basically nothing is coming of it
Yeah, It's a mostly American slang term that refers to gold panning
It comes from “panning for gold” if you know what that means?
Sifting out all the dirt so you are left with gold
basically if something doesn't pan out it just means it's not working or you're not finding anything
I love that we all answered him 🤣
lol i replied before realizing there were already multiple explanations
Thanks a lot guys ❤️
I can‘t remember in which row but I had TRIAL also
Or better (bc u all identify with she/her): thnx a lot gals!
Saw 2 shooting stars this evening. Should give us plenty of luck haha
Dunno if you can see these meteors in the US.
It’s 2 pm where I am so no 😆
But maybe later? I haven’t heard of a meteor shower lately….
Hmm I don’t think I ever saw “trial”… maybe I’ll check again. I got nothing for rows 4-6
i made these for myself using @lucid valley 's ultimus capitulus thing if anyone else needs a visual on the morse code i'll share
11 pm here
Cool!
here are the 6 rows in one version:
..-...-..-....
.....-...-...-
.....-...-.-.-
.-....-.-.....
.-.-.-.-..-.-.
..-..-.-..-.-.
England?
me? no i'm im california
17:25 (5:25pm) for meeee (US eastern time zone)
oh wait duh
It's 2:27 pm for me
I commute constantly between France and the Rhine area, Germany
oh dude!
pacific time zone buds!
Heck yeah!
jersey?
This time zone thing always confuses me somehow although I think I was good in math lol
oh wait no wrong time zone hahaha
no i get that completely
one of my old school friends was kinda dull in the head, she thought that when it was night time in the UK, it was nighttime everywhere 
i got kinda good at time zone math bc i lived in Spain for about a year and had to deal with a 7 hour time difference between myself and most of my friends and family lol
explained time zones to her one time and i swear she looked like i’d just told her santa wasn’t real 
I visited NYC last autumn and to communicate with friends was hell of a mess
also my best friend has lived in South Korea for the past 3 years and it's a whole 14 hour difference between us currently so i just have a dual clock on my phone so I can check what time it is for her lol
Now something completely different (Monty Pythons):
there is an obvious parallel between the journal and DR with motifs they share. Have we looked into that enough?
It could be a normal design thing (like all of it aaaargh)
in the words of tyler joseph, where do i go from here 
should we make a spreadsheet of things that have been tried or something
I mean the motifs they used in both should be more important.
i’m guessing for a lot of ideas, they’re being skipped over or repeated, which means we aren’t quite getting to the ending that we need 
i think there’s definitely patterns that we may have brushed over
also tyler used latin for the final post on the digital remains, could that infer that we need to be seeking out latin words and not english in what we decode?
makes it 10000 times more difficult if so
also, why does tyler reference voldemort in his thanks in the album?
could a puzzle part be within the album itself(?)
are there differences within the albums(?) considering there are so many pressings and variants(??
When I was still doing research, at least I always had clear results. The interpretation is something else. But here we are poking about in the fog.
Death eaterz
mmmm that’s very very true
with the strong inference to death eaters again, do you think that could be a hint as to what we should be looking for?
I was so crazy that I thought the special coloured vinyls had an audio message. Y‘know you can morph a circle image to a rectangle one. Then I put it in a spectogram conversion tool… muhaha
that man had us literally running around in circles
I think it’s a nice easter egg
i’ve never been so hung up on a puzzle before
the LOC stuff was easy in comparison
but then again i was like a child so had infinite time to fuck around 
now i’m a big girl with a job that drains me 
Btw last night I was thinking again about „drag path“ and compared it to the ridges in a vinyl where you have two (stereo) tracks in one and the needle is dragging…
that’s very true
drag path would be a good analogy for that
eyo hang on a minute
overcompensate, it’s what some people do when they’ve lost control of a car and they try to overcompensate on the steering to make the car go the way they want
more often than not it causes you to crash harder because you’ve tried to hard to rectify the steering
of course on a dangerous bend aswell, it’s not looking good
i still think there’s a larger motif with the cars
especially with tyler being in the garage having his hair shaved again
And you’re driving as if you follow that dangerous bend zigzag, right
yes yes!
is tyler the car?
brum brum beep beep
i knew he wanted to be lighting mcqueen
buuuuut
tyler isn’t the one driving the car, he’s always the passenger
LEVEL UP: You are now level 13!
A couple of months ago I suggested here that he is in a coma after an accident and „dreaming“ the whole story but noone wanted that outcome
“and then he woke up”
The start of jumpsuit…
oooooooooo
i loved that music video
honestly trench got me GOIN
jumpsuit was so so so good
but anyways, we digress
There’s a cut scene, where embers are flying around… then they morph to petals
do we need to follow the antlers in the post like we followed the petals?
i feel like we’re just missing something fundamental for the end of the puzzle
Dunno where the 6 is coming from. Apparently people who were there have count 6
Not the best foundation for decoding visual clues 😂
not the best at all 
i’m like mmmm pretty colours
i haven’t been able to find anything on the web in terms of dema
is there another site do you maybe think?
like a new one, surely there must be something lurking somewhere
i highly doubt the dema org site shall continue to be used after clancy(?) especially if the story is ending or developing
Dude, that’s what we are looking for since weeks!
it’s a new chapter
hehehehhe
okay so i’ve finally caught up 
the downside is, websites aren’t easy to pluck apart and have lots of trial and errors with trying to find the right one
don’t really want anyone to stumble onto anything sinister
i used an XML site map on the dema site to see what published pages there were; there’s nothing new on there since paladin strait
at least not published pages anyway
i doubt anything will possibly be posted for a while
also, are we sure there’s definitely something we’re missing or are we truly poking around in the fog?
there’s always that doubt in the back of my head hahaha
You won’t find hidden pages with a simple xml sitemap
That’s the point: maybe there is nothing to find. But I love these kind of riddles and I‘m learning so many new things on that trip
that is very true
it’s also nice to see how people’s brains approach things!
of course i’m stupid as fuck now 
my head is filled with microsoft excel sheets 
freak in the sheets 
i wonder if we’re looking for code
like actual code, html, python, etc etc
what’s your verdict on tyler’s & his PR crews knowledge on such?
If you are interested in the connection of DEMA city and vinyl/music industry you may find it interesting to look at my theory here:

you guys i got so excited bc i thought it might be braille 😭
i think i was wrong 💀
penny loafer squeak , some new shoed twerp that’s coming to tel you wether or not you can have a record deal despite knowing nothing about music
i mean it’s a different approach!
i hadn’t thought of braille i won’t lie
At least it has a 3 rows structure but I abandoned it very quickly
