the machine is the friends that we manned along the way
but is the team the fortress we 2'd along the way?

U think the clue lilies was talking about is āThe Carcosaā ?
maybe?
Its possible
Yes
it does fit
It does
but so does a lot of other shit
How would that be a clue tho, just gives me more questions
elysium and dreamer seem fitting for the ARG
watcher fits too
how do we know there isnt a specific way to solve this?
No idea
i mean
I was making a point
let's think
idk man, just do meth and slam your head into the wall until we scare kaminsky enough

"the rubble of the city"
sounds more like the carcosa
but it doesn't necesarily mean that we have to look IN the carcosa
jesus how can i gamble efficently with all this chatter (kidding)
the fetters that bind
could be referring to a person
but idk
Is there anything relating to carcosa ingame?
not anymore
Files on a desk or something?
there was just the package in early access
On what map?
that was the only mention of carcosa ever in the game iirc
in the station
under a chair in the briefing room
Maybe the station is worth checking out again
Idea
What map is that?
it's gone now
Shit
sounds like a great time to hop in VC?
it was the old headquarters
Ahhh
hops in vc
i can't lol, too late for me tonight
Yeah same
@boreal kite "the ashes of their kind is visible everywhere
hidden amongst the rubble of the city
search for the fetters that bind
in The Elysian" is this where your pointing us too? Or is it The Carcosa?
Now we wait
Question updated
if we're talking King in Yellow, could it be The Dreaming?
Why we bringing in Constantine Valdor?
Carcosa is a key part of King In Yellow
no clue
i just meant the book
can't fucking escape that book
SIGNALIS and RoN
Also excuse my 40k joke
it flew over my head lol
Lol
i'm going over the doc, stuff like The Rebirth could fit too
it's an amino acid of some sort.
the chemical compound
at least i think
god i dunno
i hate chemistry and it's 12 am
i swear to god is this fertilizer
am i gonna get on a watchlist for this
i am serious
i think this is fucking fertilizer
at least part of it
it's a broken compound, but it's got a lot of shit that matches with fertilizer
interesting... you still need the edited photo?
i swear to god kaminsky, my brother in sulemio shipping, if you just made me put the chemical compound for a makeshift explosive of some sort into this, i'm gonna be pissed
if you've got it
Ill see if i can find an old one, if not ill make a new one
.
would fit, but this amount of nitrogen in fertilizer usually means boom
oh, sorry, jusst sshowwing freakinator an image
ah
just saying, could fit with the garden stuff
i think the garden is
i think
the way the devs expected players to
find out about the arg room naturally
you'd see the frequency in that sticky note
you'd see this photo
and someone would go there
see the numbers in the wall
and try to break it
562?
i'm dumb lol
the signalis brainrot is fucking real
i'm gonna sleep and come back to this when i've got the energy
freak, if you can get a good quality image of the chemical, that'd be great, i'll check it tomorrow
also relating to 562 before i go to bed, here's some random shit about it i found on wikipedia
i believe this is the garden
yeah number stuff works out for it
considering it has the same number as the frequency on the wall
anyways
night fellas, gonna come back to this tomorrow, prob when i get home in the evening
gn, ill slide the edited photo, working on it now and Ill see if i can get a clear image
if you can't don't sweat it. i'm pretty sure it's a broken compound, but what's there is close to fertilizer or something like that.
but i'll check it tomorrow if you can
.
Dropped the clue into google and found a poem with similar contents
eh
š¤
it's a retelling of life in concentration camps
that got dark real quick
.
this was a long time ago darn
we have a tendency to overthink
we might be overthinking this as well lol
fr
i see kam being online
i know you're reading this

@boreal kite I am curious..... What do you know of the Black Sentinels?
i need to go refresh my brain, ill see you in a bit 
Acronyms section on doc has been updated
it's actually a side room that i needed to use the camera mod to get to
the building seems partially taken over by vegetation
the hidden room is the only one with flowers from what i've seen
true
Headphones?
@shrewd yarrow, sorry for the ping but where did image A6-3 come from?
is this one V1 or V2?
V1.
Have we figured out what it means yet?
Yeah, that image always stuck up to me when I first went through the document.
it was trying to hint to us the key to the wall of numbers
^
that was img 10 (A6)
2 months of overthinking hell
@nova niche if you have any other questions feel free to ask!
What if it's "The Gardens"? Like what the hidden room is called? And it certainly fits with the whole botanical theme of the MLO.
That was actually honestly a thought that went through my head. It's very possible that it could be Gardens
Going for it.
@boreal kite
the ashes of their kind is visible everywhere
hidden amongst the rubble of the city
search for the fetters that bind
in The Gardens
never hurts to try!
The MLO about to hit our houses due to our constant pings.
you can also check this out for any image 10 related stuff: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12bXGKn0ooYNF2HxiFq86wDT9YhmXOZ_fFi0QVIuWgWI/edit?usp=sharing
it's the content that was cut from the main doc for cleanliness sake
there's some pretty wild stuff in there
it's linked in the main doc too btw...
is it??
yeah i decided to move things around at some point to make it look cleaner
gotcha
i didn't see that š¤£
you're good 𤣠š¤£
"our journey takes us to dark water
from the disgraced subject of Jassim bin Mohammed Al Thani
to the warriors that use altruism as an excuse for violence
the ceremoney waits to be observed
in the season of snow" I think i understand this now
"our journey takes us to dark water" - we go to maritime operations
"from the disgraced subject of Jassim bin Mohammed Al Thani" - is a refrence to Sah'id bin Khalid
"to the warriors that use altruism as an excuse for violence" - UPF
"the ceremoney waits to be observed
in the season of snow" - the DLC is being released this winter
Yeah that's basically what I wrote for the doc + what Freakinator added later
it's the little things that you notice when you reread things after the fact
š¤£
I can imagen Kaminsky reading in here laughing his ass off.
I thought the last sentence was hints of the next DLC.
Since we didn't observe any kind of ceremony.
it's basicly the day of release
Did you remove the comment or just add it to the doc
Removed comment and added it I think
Though I do have dementia so keep that in mind
I may be wrong
this?
Ye
Yeah thatās it, thank you
The schizo ramblings
was the guy who entered public lobbies and preached the bible a part of the arg or just crazy
idk if he still exists anymor
šš
that guy.
mr messiah
I, personally, didnāt catch the dorms date (so Ty), but i did know about mirage at sea one
09152027 is forever engrained in my mind
Ehhh-considering the fact that it took us two months and we desperately needed a hint Iād say not. By that logic too, Al khwazarmi would be an important character in this ARG (which Iād assume not).
Of course I could be wrong but I think the hint was just telling us that we needed to focus on 09152027
wait what did i do?
Mention the 09152027 date on mirage
You found the 09152027 link with seraglio
Honestly, unless Kaminsky says otherwise (or lily), Iād say that āElysianāwould be the correct answer to the lily message. Everybody already mentioned everything that was thinking so I canāt really add anything to the list but eh idk
come to think of it, does it mean the fetters that bind can be found in whatever that place is, or that the fetters bind in the place?
i think it's the former, but unsure
it's very possible it could be the former
Doubt it
I think it's that we can use ingame stuff but only if we are told to do so or something
Maybe we're all going schizo
Like it'll be hinted at that we need to use ingame stuff
I think that's what kam said at some point
That it'll be obvious when we need to use ingame stuff
it could be just a lore bit
theres a 3rd one in the room on the left as your going up the stairs from the docking bay
np!
Donāt wanna toot my own horn or cause any confusion but the poem here has a lot of similarities to the clue which I find interesting, wonder if itās connected to it in some way
Seems coincidental from the little I see
nope
have we come up with any other guesses?
is it a coincidence that the lilies account is also in the official tarkov server?
Yes
Not really. Tho, it could be a lore bit
It's kam's alt acc that he repurposed most likely
^
i see
I remember him saying that yes
i bet lilies is a usec main
Entirely, yes
Very nice
(This is actually a lie by kaminsky to get us to not look into how his messages in that discord are actually a direct solution to every part of the ARG he has planned)
tarkov is just ron in the future fr
Btw kam are we meant to solve anything here
Also just wondering if it's alright that I refer to you as kam
(I sure hope thats okay because thats what I always do and if you dont like it mb, i didn't know)
i dont think the answer is any of the ones we've said yet.
but lets pray and hope he confirms my suspicions
Lilies got leg metaed by a toz while looking for tushunkas for that fat fuck jager and now heās evil (cannon lore)
Speaking of being a fatty, I dropped cheesecake on my phone while looking at the clue
I still wanna learn to fish brother
No cradle lasts forever, every bird must learn to fly
dude pullled out the fucking poetry

no image perms
tragic
i love realistic Shooters
It's a very rarely accessed piece of data fren, it's not dumb to not know. You just don't know how to do it. :>
^ this. Its actually a very easy process to do. I can teach ya @restive flame
When do I start?
First you the pic with exof data. Let me find an example
.
Save this image somewhere
Next you to someplace like https://www.metadata2go.com/ here
Then you go to view info, find the save photo and upload
And thats it
It took me abit to figure out how to
So dont feel bad if you dont know how to do something ask, and we will gladly teach š
Nope
But yeah, super easy once you think about it
And like i said, any questions you have or something you want to learn to do just ask
There are standalone programs that give you access to a lot more data, but it's usually not needed
also following your question that I totally didn't ignore @autumn geyser
It's just a setup from lily, info to be used later. :>
Its fine its fine its fine
Also thank you.
Your welcome!
is this about the lilies message-
garden it is then
I would say more elysian. Thats just me
Hey, big fan of RoN, but just learned about the ARG and joined the Discord. Where can I find the doc to get up to date on what we know so far?
Pins
But i can link them 1 sec
https://docs.google.com/document/u/0/d/1mraLxzMsXWFkj8G_x4z4Xzf7BVlXaCjv1x_WnM9UrRI/mobilebasic v1 the main one we work off

Ah, thanks! I don't use Discord a lot, so I missed that until you pointed it out. I'll catch up, and hopefully be of some help.

Any questions feel free to ask
Will do, thanks for the helping hand.
Happy to help! š
We lost our minds about the lilies message just for it to be a set up for later š
I think so
I got here yesterday
Just been throwing my useless ass opinion around
uh basicly follow the doc/give yourself the the arg role to get notified when things actually happen
most recent thing we got is basicly a lore bit/build up to something
Iām assuming we still havenāt identified the compound found in image 10(A6)?
techincally no
Alright time to spend hours of my night building it into molecular models and figuring it out. Gonna be fun
lmao
Yeah itās throwing me for a loop. All I can figure out is thatās itās some kind of bio active/ organic compound.
the whole structor is incomplete so its hard to deteremine
@quaint granite was checking it saying it was close to like fertilizer
Really?
1sec i can get you the post
.
there ya go
Interesting, I mean it could be but also I donāt think thereās enough O or N molecules in there like most shelf fertilizers, when looking at those things the whole ring is carbon nitrogen oxygen bonds.
Iām assuming itās got something to do with the whole bibenzimidazole thing possibly since earlier itās noted thatās itās used when researching new compounds
yeah that's the general thought of it
I am also starting to also think it might be linked to the fake serum in game
i could wrong
Yeah cuz after going with Iāve got i asked the great LLM in the sky to search the SMILES data for l41 and it says that the core of bibenzimidazole is in the compound
yeah, i think thats what was initally discovered with what we had
let me double check the doc
Yeah Iām reading the v2 rn to catch up
š
Yeah looking through v1 it still seems the compound hasnāt been fully sussed out
yeah im fixing up my model here, noticed that a few of the normal bonds are actually wedge bonds in this image
gotcha
so seeing as its tied to L41 and L41 was administered to hush some people up if i read it right and then rebuilding the molecule to as close to the image as possible, it appears it might be a cytotoxic compound that could cause rapid cell death
take that with a grain of salt, I used GPT4 to help come to conclusing by having it analyze the SMILES format, and it appears so. but I came to the same conclusion GPT4 did on my own as well.
"Based on the presence of aromatic rings, amine groups, and the complex structure of the compound, it is plausible that the molecule could be cytotoxic, either as a result of DNA interaction, cell cycle disruption, or oxidative stress"
interesting....
mind if drop the .mol and SMILES for anyone interested to look at it as well?
go for it
C/C(/C(NOC@C)C(C)C)=C/C.C(CN)C.C=C
didnt have an option for the file for the SMILES, so heres the text version to copy and paste
that's alot of Carbon
jesus
yeah honestly i wish I could synthesize this IRL and see just what it does
O.o
Nice, cheers
Just because it's such an interesting compound. I wonder if the chemistry nerds at my college would be able to do more with it
what about that catches your eyes?
good shit btw. Is there any correlation between that structure and anything with this?
hmm I dont believe so, but it could be the expired chemicals its talking about
who knows theres not much to go off on that vial
nothing in particular, just fascinated by the elements
its an interesting one for sure
another interesting thing about this compound is that has the ability to affect DNA
really?
he presence of multiple fused rings, including the aromatic systems, could provide the molecule with the ability to interact with DNA or enzymes critical for cell division, potentially serving as an anticancer agent. The nitrogen atoms may allow for coordination with DNA or proteins involved in the cell cycle.
so anticance or like i said earlier Cytoxicity
Also, we know 4L1CHNO was most likely used to ahem kill people (as seen when CAM ACT. "self administered," and was never heard from again)
so could kill cells or be used in combination with a viral agent to increase the virability and mutagenic effects of the virus itself to make it more lethal and harder to counter
due to the ability to interact with the DNA
kinda like.... the t-virus? (i know it's a made up virus)
yeah something to that effect
jesus...
Well, it has a 100% mortality rate for all we know so, I'd say less zombie more-dead?
undead???
READY OR NOT ZOMBIES WHEN??
š¤£
XD
I'm gonna sue you for copyright infringement
š¤£
not undead, just dead dead it seems and a possible horrible death at that, me thinks ebola x100
oh god
bottom line, something that kills quickly, quietly, and most importantly, effectively
mmh
yeah
super effectively
no matter how its used it seems
Fun
biochemical terror next DLC post Dark Water?
the effects are interesting, with cell death n' all, but I feel like the only thing we REALLY gotta know is that its a dangerous bioweapon
lmao
if coupled inside a virus i would say youd see something like what happens in the rainbow six novel with that bioweapon
actually scratch that knowing effects would help a lot nvm
yeah, only problem is if used like the one in rainbow six the novel, where the virus lays dormant but super viral for a week and is somehow spread through like crop sprayers over cities or the water supply the results would be terrifying to say the least.
The result would be death
MLO might still be less evil than big pharma
lmao
well yes, mass death on a scale never seen before by humanity
where's luigi when you need him
š
wait.... reminder there was only ONE civilan on 3 letter triad
Wdym one suspect
civvie you mean?
yeah
Yeah
i ment civie
the USIA guy, anthony schwarz. he was being traded or something. What about em?
you guy's don't think this guy was... the chosen, or is it too much of coidence
possibly
I completely forgot all about that, good catch man
yeah.... it just dawned on me
ok
lore question time
@boreal kite who is dr.anthony schwarz?
see if lilies knows anything
be funny if lilies knew
so the compound we kind of figured out could do horrible things but reading that there is another thing it could do
"The compound you provided, given its potential effects on the central nervous system and metabolic pathways, could, in theory, enhance natural abilities in the areas of cognitive function, physical performance, mood regulation, and possibly metabolic efficiency. However, whether it could safely and effectively enhance abilities without causing harm would depend on its precise mechanism of action, dosing, and the potential for side effects or long-term health consequences."
I mean, aren't the MLO technically already "super soldiers?"
they are super^2 soliders I suppose then, but then why would they use it to kill themselves?
correction, why would they use it to kill themselves if it was supposed to make them stronger
Wait where did you get the description from
well assuming it can do both depending on synthesis, and what it its attached with in a sense, 1.bioweapon of mass destruction 2.preventing capture/silencing dissenters 3.enhancing themselves
Did I miss a lilies clue
yes, i used GPT4 to help breakdown what the compound could be used for
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
maybe, interesting...
WHHYYYYYYYY
major crashout incoming
AI is ass
i figured out that its a complex pharmacological compound on my own
And those symptoms are basically the baseline for everything
Eating an apple could enhance natural abilities in areas of cognitive function, improve physical performance, mood regulation, etc
well i dont have a top line pharmacologist or chemist on dial so i did what i could once I couldnt do anything further
That's why I said like 5 months ago to not use ai for anything other than the most surface level basic stuff imaginable because it either gives extremely general but sciency sounding sentences OR it gives complete bullshit, or if by some miracle it's correct, which granted, it some times is, it may be useful
We did solve one thing using AI (though tbf that was patterns, which is like the one thing computers are good at)
And in this case, maybe we aren't supposed to know yet
Maybe kam purposefully picked the one thing that's insanely vague on purpose so that it could be revealed as time goes on because we can't find anything else about it
maybe who knows, all I know outside of AI is that it' still a pretty fucked up compound that can interact with DNA and cells due to the bioactive nature of the compound.
thank you, it was hell building that model back up and getting it right.
I can imagine
we had hard time trying to trace the fucking thing
and thank y'all for that so much
o7
but yeah, that was an interesting thing to do and make
just hearing what it could do was fairly interesting and kinda scary to think about
yeah, real eye opener
Imagine a weapon of that magnatiude being introduced to the public (remember, 4L1 is still in development, and it already gets the job done with ease).
Makes sense for the MLO to develop that
also heres the composotion of the compound
C 12.0107 u Ć 61 74.575 %
H 1.00794 u Ć 91 9.3363 %
N 14.0067 u Ć 9 12.831 %
O 15.9994 u Ć 2 3.2571 %
the package
Very nice
So carbon makes up nearly 75 percent, I canāt remember off the top of my head but those first numbers is atomic weight right?
Ye
yep
Alr, I gotta brush up on chemistry again
Kaminsky really making us learn chem again
Honestly I might just conscript my brother to help with anything with chemistry, (heās majoring in chem engineering and Iām lazy) šš
yay.... time to try to retap into information that was learned 16years ago
please do lmao. I'm just a chemistry nerd
and the only reason im as good as i am is because 1. i love chemistry and 2. im in college to be a paramedic so ive gotta study pharmacology
Alright gentlemen, I am off to sleep now. Gn
Have a good rest
Thatās cool man
rest well, gl on your finals
š
who says i don't know how to do that already? figured i have to have a backup plan if the whole paramedic thing doesnt work out
whats the u stand for in that equasion?
(Someone do that Iām on phone right now)
Linch, as a moderator such as yourself, what is the policy on wishing harm on someone?
don't
atomic mass unit
One atomic mass unit (1u) is a mass unit equal to exactly one-twelfth (1/12th) the mass of one atom of carbon-12 isotope. The symbol for the unit is u (unified atomic mass unit) or Da (Dalton), although amu may still be used. 1 amu = 1.67377 x 10 -27 kilogram or 1.67377 x 10 -24 gram. 1amu = 1.662 x 10-24g.
ah ok!
i haven't heard that term in along time
lol
just relooking at the eqausion made me go 
i completely forgot the dalton scale š¤£
we all do until we really need it.
i know the perferd way is the amu
yea the atomic mass unit
nod
so much fun
indeed
if you need help with chemistry i may be of help
C/C(/C(NOC@C)C(C)C)=C/C.C(CN)C.C=C
here is the isomeric SMILES
tell me what you think.
brb
nothing of the top of my head , apart that it has a shitton of carbon
i talked with my chemistry teacher when i had discord open at class and she saw the compound
and she said that it was a simple organic compound
also the composition
makes it a heavy compound when it comes to masa atomica
in other word grams per mol of said compund
oh yea shes a heavy one
Gotta love how as of lately the ARG group has just been getting bigger and bigger
Nice to see
back before the 1.0 release when it was still alpha nad beta i was part of the INTO CARCOSA group of people.
Ah nice
the old arg
hey we got a second opinion that more or less goes with what we know.
also
if im not wrong
with it being a rganic compound it could easily interact and mess with tissue and cells cause of its properties
and as you probably know it seems to not be stable
yep, also i believe its a complex organic due to it meeting the qualifications.
C61H91N9O2 here is the formula
or part of an enhancement drug
it could be anit viral, anticancer, cancer causing, viral enhancing, cytotoxic, we're not too sure
all i know is it can interact with DNA and cells and do Nasty things to them or enhance certain things inside of them
if its used as a drug or weapon
it will inevetably come in contact with cell that it will damage as i dont think it could select witch ones to afect and to not, so my best bet would be it being a cytotoxic used as a weapon
cause at the same time it enhaces certain aspects it will quickly cause damage to the cells
now that i think of it it could be use as a enhancement droug for 1 time only before the damage is too great
yeah thats what I was thinking, it's a potent cytotoxin and could be used to somehow enhance A virus to be 100x worse than ebola by fucking with the DNA
worst case scenario
yeah cause the 1 time use enhancement drug makes little to no sense
maybe
the only way to get a confirmation would be to see it in action
or a description of what it does
have we gotten anything from the last clue?
not that i can tell
cause i know lilies dropped a 3 and 7 letter blanck sentences
also isnt the serum presented in 3 letter triad supossed to be a weapon ?
thats what i assume , but at the end it turned out to be false
yeah
at least the one they were using as a bargaining chip was fake, probably just to fuck over the deal
That makes some sense Iād assume they didnāt want to give away the real deal as it might be on limited supply
Wait the clue isn't a puzzle?
Us waiting for clues
Fuck
@autumn geyser
Post that for me
šššš
How do you get special perms
Sending pipebombs is not a skill
But making them is

Real
Give the people you trust to have embed perms
let's not push it....
guys, i just realized... what Outcider called "Kaminskitution" is really just tap code.
oh
Police chief jumpscare
š
That was me who ordanied it Kaminskitution
It doesnt really matter, I was just curious š
Lol
Honestly call it a group effort
Hell yeah
Fuckin hell 2 for one
I just wanna say that this ARG is probably the most invested I've ever been in any one ARG
I'm desperately hoping someone much smarter than I covers it though. I've found a lot of clues in game, especially what I think is "The Garden" but I probably don't have enough resources to put it all together
I should probably make a drive folder to store all that we already know
did check the docs?
is it in the pinned messages?
This is the graffiti on the wall where you're supposed to bomb to find what I think is "The Garden" has this been looked at, at all?
"562-21"
yes
but i can link them rq

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1t5p5kZNz_RxjQq10YZIZUkOrwfy1inxgU3BHPnD68Uk/edit?usp=sharing condensed version
I don't see much regarding Gerard Scott and the idea that Judge may be a sleeper agent of the MLO in this document, is that a prior completed ARG or have I recalled something unrelated?
Iām pretty sure there are numerous unsolved aspects of the ARG
That consists of who or what āthe spiderā actually is, and of course the Gerard Scott thing as well
Thatās just off the top of my head
True, I kind of forgot about the Spider after Pork Hokan
Donāt take my word as gospel tho, Iām new here
I assumed that they were a huge human trafficking organisation
But I can confirm the spider thing is unsolved
I think they are, but I also think itās something deeper
That port hokan trafficking room completely expanded the possibilities and just the general reach that the spider actually has
They have actual black market white collar auction houses
Oh yeah with some sort of massive billionaire backing
That seems government level to me
Maybe MLO backed for all we know
But they are a part of the cartel as well
So theres that too.
Also have we confirmed that the mercenaryās in the alysian hotel are actually MLO?
Yes, you can bomb a specific wall and you can find a room with 3 "Guardians" wearing the MLO headpieces from the "Evidence" YouTube video
Ok so itās safe to assume that the MLO is working with criminals (such as the pirates on the same map)
however when you get the S Rank for the mission - the serum is described as "part of a barter between Los Nevagantes del Caos and Black Sentinel"
So maybe it isnāt a reach to say theyre also working with the cartel, who, in turn, control the spider?
Black Sentinel is a name I've never heard before
Black sentinel is the mercenaries on the map
Well, thatās what theyāre identified as
I'm assuming Black Sentinel is a cover identity the MLO use to cover their tracks?
But I think theyāre a cell of MLO
Yes exactly
But I havenāt seen anyone to confirm this yet
I'd make a logical deduction on that one
Ready or Not is deadass one of the my favourite games of all time because of this ARG
100%
Also, post S Ranking 3 Letter Triad there is no one in the Interview Room unlike other missions where there's always someone related to the setting. I'd assume maybe even Dr Schwartz would be in there but he isn't either
Fittingly enough nearly
holy shit whats the last achievement
All S ranks
Honestly not really, you just have to go out of your way for them a little
you did iron man without losing a single officer already
Yep :3
how was that
Honestly, maybe I'm just a complete no-life but super duper easy
I've also been playing since the first public release tho
i did all the levels on s already and now im trying to do the iron man thing and im struggling lol
what level do you have trouble on for S?
Greased Palms is definitely testing me lol
yes
wedges
and riot shield
try that, its what worked for me after like a week of dying
My last few are:
Greased Palms
Sins of the Father
Neon Tomb
Buy Cheap Buy Twice
Carriers of the Vine
Relapse
Hide and Seek
hide and seek was brutal as well
anyway, I don't wanna clog the ARG chat with this lol
oh wanna talk in another channel?
ARG doesn't really have much on the in game lore, things about geard or judge will not be in any of these documates. that's all mainly in game
ahhhhh makes sense
What is this channel?
ah
what about em?
Saw āShayne, No One Caresā do a video on 3LT, he referenced the statues to the actual legs of the spider in the game
Love this guy
I agree with the statements he made tho, the DLC seems like itās ramping up to some major event occurring soon.
Same with the most recent lilies lore drop
Itās all leading up to something
Also, re that video.
Someone in the comment section pointed out that the vial in the evidence, was called "calochortus serum" and Calochortus is the scientific family name for species of Flowering Lilies
Danggg
Oh boy it's time to spread more ARG propaganda
LOSTCON 3!!
Yup
So the item in the deal was not a neurotoxin or nerve agent, but a lily serum
Also Shayne forgot or didn't know about the secret MLO meeting room
I mean, the description says it turned out to be a useless mix of random stuff anyways.
The naming really just connects it back to the MLO. Keeps going back to lilies
He might be avoiding spoiling the secret for the players
Since it is linked to an achievement.
But the guy doesn't know everything so it's aight.
LOSTCON 4
The one thing I dont get it is why did the pirates kidnapped Dr Scultz?
What do the pirates want from Dr Scultz?
Good question. Though it's likely they just got pretty lucky, nabbed him off of a boat or while he was staying on the west coast.
How they figured out he was of worth or value is another thing altogether though
Pirates are indiscriminate when it comes to swiping stuff. So long as it lines their wallets
coulda gotten a tip from MLO
So I assume this is how the order was played (imo): Black Sentinel made up a fake nerve agent to get Dr Schwarz from Los Nevagantes and a USIA agent contacted Judge and the LSPD busted an extremely dangerous deal
Yeah- also in the Detectives office, there's stuff in there about a raid on an industrial chemical plant that Sentinel was linked to
Most likely leading to DLC 3 which assumedly is the last DLC and will probably be all about the MLO and USIA
DLC3 is the last one?
Merry Christmas everybody!
The spider leg thing was quite mind-blowing ngl
I def agree the black sentinel must be a front to the MLO too. Not a coincidence to me their patch is a triangle
Points to the 3 petals imo
Also was the reflector shape on the back if the old alpha MLO mich helmet but this one is a bit more far fetched lol
Wanted to use him as a bargaining chip for whatever the trade was
I think they just were lucky and nabbed the guy yeah
The entire spider thing was a good catch, I completely forgot about all of that and the human traffickers
I like the theory of the hotel owner turning to crime after funds being pulled. But now I wanna know what the MLO has to do and what kind of stuff they did at the hotel
What I notice about the MLO, is that money is something they arenāt worried about. They want destruction and change, but most importantly (what I feel like, at least) control
Perhaps the hotel owner was pressured somehow by the MLO, or maybe Iām wrong the the place was simply abandoned and ripe for the taking
i think the arg can just be solved if we got a 200 chapter 1.7 million word long fanfiction on gerard scott and judge
The ARG can be solved if we just buy our Void (then make the fanfic become true).


It's unlikely that the Elysium hotel was abandoned due to pressure from the MLO. It's most likely just a simple case of lack of investor interest and faith, and then the MLO came in and used it as a base of operations.
Makes sense, why would they want to draw attention to themselves anyway. Good point
Gerard Scott is based
Ngl, the impression I got from listening to those tapes about the Elysian's construction was that the builder, while contractually obligated to his 'friend', was always going to back out and turn over the building to the MLO, because he was either always truly working for them and this was his way of disguising it, or was pressured into it by them. Either way, it makes a perfect little hideout for operations. 1) Hidden from the public both on a physical lvl and affordability standpoint from the common citizen 2) made out of strong concrete, and in a labyrinth style to afford better defense tactics and maneuvers. 3) Accessible by sea and air only, making approaches more easily detected. Only thing that I can think of that throws a wrench into the "always built for MLO idea" is that of the secret room, which wouldn't need to be secret if it was always built for them, but I digress- love to hear thoughts on this
this was mind blowing to me
the map itself screams of conspiracy + the mlo room
i was surprised while checking out that room in freecam its only the statues, it makes me believe that it wasnt a base of operations of the mlo rather something temporary happened there
Lowkey going down that rabbit hole rn
Shayne definitely made me realise why the statues looked somewhat familiar when I first saw them.
This also means that the Spider group and the MLO are connected.
I've always assumed they were separated.
So they're using Los Suenos as a testing ground?
And the owner was probaly that gimp in the dark web area in Port Hokan?
I wonder what's DLC 3 gonna be about, since we experienced a hurricane and some terrors at sea things
No chance. Because the Gimp has a russian accent.
I doubt he is a former american business owner and investor
Oh
I feel like DLC 3 will have the MLO in-game finally.
No I mean like, where DLC 3 take place
DLC 1 had us go to Dorms to deal with the situation there after the MLO captured the unknown person/people they call the Chosen.
Since we went through a hurricane and a few callouts from COAST
I think they might go all-in on the MLO story in DLC 3, and that could mean the Headquarters become a mission.
Or more like that cut mission we havent played before
I saw the screenshots before 1.0 drop
There was a cop that was tied up to a ceiling and there was some LSPD boxes
Cut mission?
Oh.
Well there is still that one officer that was captured by the MLO, kept in a safe house somewhere.
I doubt the LSPD is forgetting about him anytime soon.
Yea I think it's that
There was a board and some stuff on it
I forgot what's the mission called
It seems like this might not even be a map officially made by VOID.
Yea I also thought the same thing
Sinner also pointed that out in a steam community
Map looks good though.
It is
According to it, the map was planted to be released after 1.0
Check it yourself https://www.artstation.com/artwork/qQRGAR
Turns out that map was created by a Elliot Burgess
first time playing ready or not
yo twins?
Yooo.
My sibling from another mother.
Ah, well welcome to the ARG channel.
yaya
Go check out pinned messages to catch up on stuff.
Best you ask in #š®ron-discussion.
i forgot to download it lmao
okie dokie
Notice anything on the achievement?
Can anyone tell me where the MLO room is on the Elysian? I cleared the map on A rank but didn't see it.
MLO captured someone?
oh ok then
did not notice that before
?
it spells "judge" from the capitalised letters
Yep
It is near the pool room, where the ruined wall is it should be marked with red paint, you need a C2 to blow it up
