fair enough
hazmat class d can protect against any airborne infection
well here there's been infection through class A
you are literally perfectly isolated from the world
oh yeah a
not d
i switched them around
my mistake
also they probably weren't using class As
They were
also consider that they are far away from the preset
really?
little progress has been made. Even after the parasite is removed, the viral
load increases. We cannot stop the progress of the virus, and our only
defense is SCBA Level A suits when in NAM-V hotspots. Even with this level of protection, the parasites are finding ways in.
so technology and shit could be different, etc.
ah
scba a suits
alright i missed that
EVEN WITH THAT THEY ARE FINDING WAYS IN?
holy shit
WHAT THE FUCK ARE THESE PARASITES
tough as fuck
they literally have to penetrate the suit
tardigrade type beat wtf
nom nom
such suits are fully sealed off, only way for something to get in is a tear
they are literally making a hole in the suit to get in
wonder if that's even biologically possible lol
probably not
I'm not sure
i've never heard of such though
I mean, that's the only way in
well
as in?
if we can find out the size of the transistors used for quantum computers
people to enter the suit?
Parasites, tearing through the suit is the only way for them
yes
and confirm life can exist at such a size
maybe it's possible
then that rules that out pretty much
unless it's some new form of life that isn't carbon based
but still parasitic in nature
and small as fuxk
could be seeing cretasium
I mean, if it's a parasite that carries a virus, it just digs through I guess
smallest thing I could find was around 0.2-0.7 ΞΌm in length
but we don't have enough information
that's too big
it doesn't necessarily carry the virus
it just makes us susceptible to it
it would cause a mutation somewhere, to change a protein and allow the virus to attach
only solution
what a weird fucking parasite
but now we run into an issue
there are two parasites if the fog theory with parasites is correct
and that makes no sense
we should be getting NAM-V by going through it, not infection
back to our poison theory
maybe the fog is sleeper c-foam /s
π
we have: toxin and dust
personally i think dust is incorrect
agreed
dust wouldn't really make a lot of sense
or if it is correct, accounts for a small %
because the only thing that could cause such toxic dust would be cretasium, since it's the only thing we don't know
if it was toxin it would at least explain all the air filters around the complex
also all the points about how it will settle after a while and other reasons in an earlier conversation
yuh yuh
seeing the new log about the alloy, it appears that that it isn't toxic
so I think we can safely agree that it's some type of poison fog
there were no mentions of health concerns or anything else
which?
the one that unlocked today
I haven't checked
should i go ahead?
yessir
aight
this theory is pretty solid I'd say
yeah
devs would have some insane explanations. If it isnt
unless there are other ideas, this is the one that makes sense
stuff we can't envision
yes
if anyone has any ideas, please go ahead no matter how weird it sounds
Maybe Fog is just Cretasium dust
the more we can rule out, the better π
we just ruled it out with the new log
you can explain to him dagga, i'm gonna go write the doc for Scaler
alright
I'll check it and see if we miss stuff
are the logs ordered in the date they were 'released'?
ruled out because: dust would've settled, cretasium doesn't pose health benefits (that were mentioned), and overall just wouldn't fit.
that's a TLDR version
if you scroll up to the 4th I think, we went into it in more detail
What if Fog is just high concentration of stone Dust in the Ventilation borked Complex?
Stone dust is the reason of the presence of fog repellers in the first place
that was ruled out. it would've posed a health risk so it would've been cleared out. AND it would've settled
this is years in the future
from the mining process
btw, another corrupted log in 7 hours
FUCK YES
Well, if ventilation is broken then it's not cleared out anymore.
if ventilation is broken how would it be kicked up and suspended?
You can't completely clear out dust
Whatβs the lore behind localization π©
Also the way the fog rises on some levels doesn't really look like dust to me. And if it were dust, why would it be dripping down the masks of the prisoners like it currently does? We see big droplets roll on the glass of the prisoners' masks when in infectious fog.
^
You're the Founder of Santonian, that's it, that's the lore
that too
also we see no particulates within the liquid on the masks, just a liquid
Yeah iβm the warden
Whatever language it's localized to was dominant in the United States, and became a global language.
if there were particulates, they would have to be nanoparticles like in ferrofluid, which are exceptionally hard to make and keep stable
you can't just make them from mining
Do the sleepers speak tho
π€
I think one thing worth mentioning is that the alloy was discovered around 1 year before the 'WHO declaring the virus as pandemic' log
THIS IS THE START OF OUR INFECTION THREAD
where we debunk dust
and conclude on poison
It's been discovered in March, and Santonian doctors noticed the upward trends of mental health in April
Might as well just make an actual discord thread?
idk what that means
doesnt matter anyway, we're makin a doc with all the info
or most of it
is there actually a gtfo lore discord?
all i know of is a modding one
i recall there is one
There is one
anyone got the link?
-10 prisioner credits for implying the existence of mods.
Glory to the Warden!
man we should have a bot that replies with that lmao
π
a GTFO social credit system thats what we need
downvotes in the game suggestions lower your score by 50 per downvote
Complaining in the steam forums = -999,999,999,999,999,999 prisioner credits
facts
bad reviews = -999,999,999,999,999,999 prisoner credits
bad RNG haunts you for life
every drop is double the enemies, half the resources
constant error alarm
no more sussy
alright so currently we need something
why would the toxin theory about the fog be false
we have forgotten to talk about that
ah shit right
main one being the disinfect stations again
clearing out your insides
the disinfect stations ruin a lot of shit π
why?
the toxins gotta get inside your body to affect your nerves
no problem
brain fart moment
isn't it kinda like an unavoidable allergy?
one issue is how specific it would have to be
basically
it can be as specific as we want, it's literally from space
it is completely possible for it to cause those certain effects
also
being infected in percentage explains it as well
im running out of ideas to disprove it πim a firm believer in poison theory
it takes time to cover your skin with the toxin
yeah good points
only issue i can really see is how it gets through all the gear we have
it can explain why nothing happens below 10%
it's clothing
it seems bulky but i could be wrong
it's not an airtight suit
and would still get through anyways
yeah
honestly? i dont see any viable way to disprove poison theory
it all checks out
if you move around with clothing on right now you can feel the air coming in
yeah
we need more people on it lmao
hmm
wonder how it got there?
like in such specific places
consistency is a bit of a problem with all the theories of the fog
fog naturally is denser than air
since its a level design choice
that's why you see it in lower parts
yuh it sinks to lower spots
i wonder how it got in the complex in the first place though
was it a gas leak?
it could have been moved there by sleepers moving and the life support system
leaked out of the 2km digsite
then the air got taken up and moved to be replenished with oxygen
leading to it spreading to all levels
maybe some humidity
before the air turbines cut out and it remained where it last is
would explain how much there is the deeper you go
yup
thicc
thats it, im out of any ideas to disprove or combat poison theory
it makes too much sense
you got any ideas? @pastel knot
nope, just waiting for the next log now
good shit
man, if the devs haven't thought this far ahead, we're doing their job for them π
maybe
the parasite might have created the first few hundred sleepers but we still dont know how the giants were created
mutations
evolution or mutation
evolution would take too long
or they just have a complete life cycle we dont understand
just like how one chain of DNA can be mutated to cause unlimited cell growth, it could happen here
this could also be true
there have been no signs of living creature needs
and evolution would have happened whilst they were in the meteor aka deep reach
true, but aren't sleepers infected personnel?
yeah they didn't come from the meteors
some
kds deep would possibly be the meteor that potentialy wiped out the dinosours thousands of years ago
consider alien theory I suppose
(not the sleepers being alien, but the parasites/virus to some extent)
or at least the parasites/virus are some sort of extremophile that can mutate/evolve real fast
I dont think that sleepers arriving fully evolved in a meteor makes sense
i assume if they are aliens they are something like necromorphs. lifeform feeding on other life
man we need to make threads
lmao
we haven't been doing that
it's fiiine
someone tell me when the pump failure was and when the virus outbreak was again
actually we can't
some time in 2053 I think, idk
yes
pump failure cannot be told due to there being no dates on autologs
ok
only hours
but the virus was in mid 2053 i think
you can check the pinned timeline by chase
yeah
think again to the fact that sleepers are humanoid
a VERY specific trait
for them to arrive like that isn't mathematically reasonable
just by chance aline
alone
the sleepers were possibly born from say a parasite or "viral infection"
mathematically speaking the chance of other humanoid parasitic creatures appearing is way way astronomically low
fact
that's why I'm almost certain it's humans that for transformed
and then reproduction probably ensued over time
evident by mothers
probably
they would evolve to be perfectly parasitic to as many environments as possible, while if they are infected humans, it would make sense to evolve from the native life form of the planet as to survive literally like a native on it
but Strikers are male
this is true
by evolution logic, such a parasitic life form would evolve from native species as to survive the best it can
otherwise there won't be any sense in evolving by yourself (since you are a parasite) to as many environments, since planets can quite vary. from ocean worlds to dry deserts with no oxygen in the atmosphere
there is no way to prep for such environments
yeah
what about shooters?
not to mention the amount of radiation in space
damn i hope people like Scaler or chase are reading this
Shooters are female
but how do they come into existance
mutation, transformation from women, who can say
genetics from male to female are quite different so mutating differently is very likely
you could say that about any of the sleepers
What are you lore monkeys brain storming
sleepers
And
everything lmao
Ok
everything basically
birther that spawns shooters when
it doesn't
shooters might also be formed from baby strikers growing and changing
and thats why there are no baby shooters
sort of
why would a mother spawn genetically evolved like the native species animals and not a modified version, still capable of surviving, that is efficient to actually make and infect more with?
which still doesnt explain hybrids tanks ect
shooters shoot and kill the target
chargers might also have the same thing happen
strikers actually hit them and possibly infect them
so more of a chance for the parasite to spread
that's true
there are limits with evolution
with an unknown alien species, those are very loose
now i'm gonna stop typing and focus on making the doc
although at this point the sleepers may be an entirely different species no longer dependant on the parasite
have fun
we still dont know whats in deep reach where the virus originaly came from
π
alright ima make lunch while you do that
we shall continue the theory of everything soon stay tuned lads
we never can
yup
r5e1
hopefully someone like scaler or chase will join in as well
facts
knowing it's composition and literally every detail we can gather from it cannot give us enough information to determine where it originates from
thats not what i mean
it can be from a system 100 light years away or a system 100,000 light years away
heres a far fetched theory
like shooting a projectile out of your head at a relatively slow speed and locks to a target

kds built the hsu vault
oh man there's a whole rabbit whole to go down
meaning?
aka the majour labs down there
too dangerous
or is it
Can we try writing everything we want to say in a single message so that the chat would be a bit easier to read instead of
like
I think
that maybe
the sleepers
are aliens
no
nope
I think in separate messages
not happening
with the whole sleeper infestation, fog and depth, it would be too difficult to get everything down there and establish a lab
it is reaching a conclusion and then writing a doc about it
which we will then store on the lore server possibly
^
alternatively everything in those labs might've been automated
this is about discussion to reach an agreement which we document
and then legionaries were sent down to retrieve the data
aka us
basically what the warden is doing
if you get what i mean
can someone copy and paste the hospital doc from the corrupted folder
since the lore server is really lacking
or just the one where it says that it is a parasite that can go through class a hazmat suits
π
could just be a parasitic virus that goes through gas masks
it can't
class A HAZMAT suits are fully isolated
nothing can go in or out of them once it's sealed
the person is inside with an oxygen tank
completely isolated from the surroundings
hmm
only way to go through is for the parasite to make a hole in the suit and go it
literally the only way
even a microscopic hole
Parasite just built different
or the parasite could create microscopic holes
that's the current idea
kind of a weird one though
technically it is possible
yeah, but I doubt those suits are thin enough to be pierced in normal conditions
then again weird parasites so who knows
who knows
someone please post the file where it says about the class a hazmats
Who needs a hazmat suit when you got a gas mask made from a trash bag and tape (looking at woods)
Now I'm wondering, are the prisioners bald...
Probably. Having hair would be bad
it's a military requirement to have a buzzcut and no facial hair
so they definitely are bald
I hope they get updated face models
why the same pictures twice
that's the newer alloy scan file
yeah my bad
np
me either
@devout geyser you got any idea?
what log is this?
it appears our two people with a timeline are not here
scaler is also idle
at this point i am going to make one myself
np bro
isnt there a google drive/doc with one?
yes
i thought i saw one linked earlier
pinned notion timeline, personnel and other stuff by chase
ah
quite useful but i think there also should be an explanations of phenomena part
i thought scaler made a video on the timeline, i could be wrong though
agreed
ohhh wait you wanted access to get it added
is that what you mean?
ok gotcha
good idea
a lot of stuff that needs to be explained and we have basically done it
pretty much
for example we are close to concluding what the sleepers are
good on us lmao
i might write stuff for that as well
i suppose you can dm chase about it and i'm going to wrap up the doc
DM chase about what we've concluded? or that we'd like to add the stuff?
nice
hell yeah
we figured out the fog
feels good man
ravenna could pin it possibly when she can
i think it's important of a thing
now i am going to write about the sleepers
i think i got down what they are
@shut mountain pin this pls if you can? π
sounds good bro
i think sleepers are a parasitic life form that ended up on the planet
the way they came into being is most likely first imitating us to try and survive
then once they started killing workers they started mutating from the native species - humans, so that they can survive
they wouldn't try and evolve to survive in all environments, that's why they are parasites
they evolve from the native species to instantly get the result of millions of years of evolution
then feed off of them and spread
would sort of explain the large 'mutations' (tank, mama, etc.)
but it would counteract with the dead bodies with sleeper like features in the ground
they are bodies from sleepers killed by KSOs
personally doubt it, they don't 100% look like it
im not sure if i entirely agree? maybe im misunderstanding how you worded it
but it could be possible, yeah
KDS security was sent down to protect workers and fend off sleepers
also there will always be failures
this implies the parasite is sentient
not every mutation can go right
not really
unless im reading it wrong
i am not sure of it
but my idea is that they just tried to somehow get some humans killed
possibly by imitating movements
shape
or other stuff
personally, i dont think sleepers are necesarily evil per se
they don't have to be sentient
let me see if i can word this correctly
they are trying to survive
the sleepers themselves? no i dont think so
yes you're right
a parasite is small
the sleepers are a result of the parasites effects
thats what i personally think
not necessarily
generally though
yes
also it would make sense that they are protecting their territory
since they don't actively hunt for prey
yuh
they just sit and wait until someone goes into their territory
and scouts being like an alarm system for the group
yep
scouts the real G's
lmao
ok so you believe the sleepers themselves are parasites?
im tryna get things lined up
ok yes, i agree with that
the parasites are just tiny parasites that infected them
they are probably carried on the sleepers
i agree with all of the above
that they're mutations?
maybe we can compare this parasite to the Flood in halo?
though its a completely different game universe lmao
true
and halo is in like 2150 or something i forget
but there could've been inspiration
yuh cause the parasites infect humans, dead or alive, and are tapped into the Gravemind
but its very supernatural sounding so im not sure how well it fits with GTFO
considering most of GTFO isn't too supernatural
whereas halo is full on space aliens that are very sentient and evil
my idea is: they were some species within the meteorite, very territorial, that then mutated through humans and their DNA as to survive on the planet
some species as in, an actual full organism? or still a parasite?
hmm
i am not sure
could be both
but thinking now, they don't seem very parasitic in nature
there isn't any searching for hosts and when they find them, it's just killing them
i dont think the parasite itself is controlling them
its just a catalyst for the transformation
nothing besides spitters actively try to infect you
and spitters can be argued to not even be a type of sleeper but who can say
shit right my bad
still either way
i dont think sleepers are controlled by the parasite
but something else entirely
yeah i think so too
brought upon by the parasite
maybe just survival drive
yeah
could be that
the brain was mutated down from our level
removal of the frontal lobe
leaving the stem and the more primitive parts of the brain
leaving just primal instinct
which would make sense since strikers heads are split in half
so without an actual conciousness, its just... there to live and protect its species
so it cant be evil in nature
just protective
seems right
Respawn rooms do indicate that sleepers can create themselves, to some extent.
the sacs yeah, i wonder what those imply
we know they reproduce to some extent
ok ok so
so it isn't a parasite at all
hmm
just a species
yes, as i was implying
very nice
It's possible that humans are something like a "model" they follow, and they are just creating and integrating flesh to make it.
exactly
could the sacs be like, baby sleepers from when other squads got killed by the mother and they maybe make themselves cacoons to grow?
as to survive on the planet
hm, im not sure
no idea
incubators of sorts?
but that wouldnt explain how babies come straight out the mother and fight you
oooh
maybe
to mature they need to get into a cocoon
that could be
and in the cocoon state they can either be a shooter or striker
the puberty type thing i mentioned before
the constant respawn is probably just a game mechanic and beyond the functional lore
explains why they are not specifically either one until hatching
but yes it makes sense
yeah like their mouth head closes or something, theyd probably take much longer to mature than strikers
id say so
and then beyond that they can mature more into a big shooter or striker
in a life cycle that we cant determine
i could write it into a hypothetical part that makes sense but can't really be proved with what we have
yeah thats the hardest part
thanks a lot ooopsie
yeah
yeah, the older the sleeper the bigger it gets, maybe some select shooters are given something, like bees give baby workers royal jelly to create a queen- but for the scouts
kskskks
scouts may mutate based on some chemicals the sleepers emit, who can say
I love the gtfo lore so much it's so good
I cant even play the game but just the lore ππ
a lot of stuff could be explained through chemical reactions and shit that we just cant explain without, yknow, samples or proof
also it makes sense how scouts, mothers and tanks come to be
kinda like bees or ants
they start as larvae
shadows are purely supernatural so lets not talk about those
yeah
then as they grow, it is decided what they grow into
maybe well get study logs in r6
agreed
very very interesting
hmm
like lions fight to decide king, something like that idk
maybe but we haven't seen such
just a thought
probably not
worth it to say it just in case lol
yup
gotta think of everything
but yeah i think its probably some sort of chemical signal that happens
a big shooter will take on a protective role
and thus triggers a reaction to make the feelers
possibly
they communicate using low to mid frequency echolocation so
so they all have the capability to be a scout
true
damn this is getting interesting lol
yeah a lot of lore progress today
chemicals could also explain how sleepers can wake when another is killed, similar to ants
how when an ant dies it releases chemicals to signal to take it to the death pile
so the ants go to the body and do so
It does seem like the body they use probably doesn't matter, they're probably assigned "roles" that the species needs in order to function as a colony, and they're fitting that into the particular model they have (humans, in this case).
-Dark pigmented sleepers are likely to hunt actively, while pale pigmented sleepers are likely to rest and maintain control over areas.
-Strikers fill a front-line combat role while shooters fill a back-line combat role, with variations within those categories.
-Scouts and hybrids seem to serve special functions that connect hibernating and roaming sleepers. Scouts actively patrol areas where other sleepers hibernate, and, if alerted, they will call to roaming sleepers to help fight. Hybrids seem to drum up aggression in hibernating sleepers to get them to roam with them, resulting in packs of alert sleepers at some doors.
good points good points
so maybe its similar to.. a wolf pack in some ways?
some designated hunters, can travel as a pack
seems like a bee hive or ant nest
the protectors stay in the den with the smaller and weaker ones
yeah that too
lots of comparisons to nature we can make here
I like the colony description.
a lot of which communicate in specific movements or chemical releases and such
like how ants can be born with a specific head type to block the entrance to their hives too
true
so its definitely a role-based species
with different functions that come about by the needs of the colonies
that's fucking AWESOME if you think about it
for real
very nice job devs
They have two very broad "classes" that involve specific behavior, hibernation and roaming. They behave in distinctive ways, and can communicate with one another through specialized roles. Apart from the broad classes, there are also different functions in combat that sleepers can fill.
you could use bees as a really good example of this kind of thibg
agreed Ray
and yeah
bees and ants are 2 really good comparisons
if the devs really thought everything through like this, they're honestly kinda genious
if we just pulled all this out of our asses, we're fuckin geniouses
and the devs need to hire us as storyline artists
i mean even if they intended it, we still figured it out
π
we are fucking big brain man
actually maybe but not really
π
we are the ones who infiltrated their place
but they are the ones who landed here on accident
yeah, jokes on them
i hope we can get even a sprinkling of confirmation for any of this
i want my big shooter scout theory to be right
if it is thats SO FUCKING COOL
like the whole ant/bee colony type thing
yeah
there you go
thanks meat guy
np
the question is: will the devs do also
they would NOT let that much get confirmed
true
which sucks
so ig we have to wait
lmao
(unless they pm us in private on a strict no talk policy π)
if we have to sign an NDA that's fine
facts
but god the satisfaction
i just want the peace of knowing lmao
hell, sign me to legion myself just to know
start a #SaveTheSleepers campaign
from inside the complex
maybe thats the whole LETTHEMSLEEP password
a hint that they're docile until disturbed
#SleepersWerePeopleToo
lmaoo
"but are they?" vsauce intro plays
man we'll have to deal with sleeper racism
probably
what is.... sleep?
but let's not flood the channel with memes
right right
imagine if they implemented good/bad karma like in the Metro series
good or bad decisions alter the way the game goes
that would be fuckin cool
so we have established that they are probably a colonial species like ants and bees, with roles established while in cocoons
way ahead of you bud
good shit bro
ope
we hit the fuckin jackpot eh?
quick copy it all down!!
@analog frigate we should join some federal detective agencies at this point
nah that's a bit too far
π
they would've figured this out a while ago
we are just randos that really like the game
they are trained professionals
to be fair i've only been into the lore for a week at this point
ive like 130 hours in game
damn you gotta pump those numbers up π
i still have to deal with school
and rayalot is thankfully typing a lot, probably important stuff
Birthers, I suspect, are probably meant to serve primarily a reproductive or "nest caring" role, where they manage the production of presumably more sleepers and place cocoons throughout the areas they maintain.
Chargers and tanks are just heavier units that can sustain a lot more damage, presumably to control higher-priority areas where the colony is best established more firmly. Hybrids fill this role as well in addition to serving social functions.
Shadows are... shadows. It seems as if they patrol only select areas of the complex, and hibernate in areas off the beaten path, being mixed with other sleeper variants less often. It's unclear what the lore for them is, they might just be a special variation of sleeper or they might be an investment into safety, where the sleepers themselves are meant to be harder to find and eradicate than their more obvious relatives.
cool iβll look into that and add the new logs today
shadows seem like traps
^
just perfectly hiding
last lines of defense
Couldn't find many logs w/ the alias string, though. Would also be interesting to know if there's IDs that we don't have names for.
in odd areas that intruders might go through to avoid the regular sleepers π€
like C1 extreme
yeah like damn
i will start writing about the system of sleepers then
sounds good
the wording really just sounds like a nature documentary π
i actually could
why not
like a 30 minute documentary of behaviour and biological analysis of sleepers
that'd be cool af
yknow what GTFO reminds me of a lot? SCP containment breach, the old game
not the new unity remake
yeah
Hmmm "you should be ready at all times to receive the wardens orders. Are you prepared"
Something tells me
I swear if they drop 1.0 with no lead up on an anniversary or something this game will flop
It'd be amazing to hear Schaeffer commenting on the new expedition
Like him doing a monologue about how the place he's in is a gigantic mess while hinting that the said place is where R6 occurs
what just you see him through some glass a security doorclose that you cant open
Ah yes
time to clip through the wall
I think hearing him through another door that's closed the moment you get in a zone would be nice as well
with an alarm triggering at the same time cuz schaeffer found it funny to do so
New objective, retrieve Schaeffer
Schaeffer makes me think of Doug Rattman from portal.
Crawling around a massive facility, losing his mind n all
ends up in hibernation too
Schaeffer hacking the cortex interface to give you new objectives would be kinda sick too
Or simply messing up with your HUD
*Inserts a nekopara add into your cortex interface*

its also possible that someone (the warden) hacked biocom and inserted their own modules/ instructions.
so warden is a trojan virus confirmed
I think this is what is happening. allow external execution is set to true, so someone might be controlling it from the outside
So it's trying to execute a "seek_and_destroy" module?
also exclusion extension is .wrdn
At a guess, that's what the logs seem to show, someone accessing BIOCOM to plug in their own code and turn it into WRDN
yea I think BIOCOM might of detected an infiltration by the wrdn, tried to initiate seek_and_destroy module, failed, then all of these permissions were changed, and external execution was allowed with the .wrdn extension.
This also means its official name is WRDN.
yep
You'll note that network file scans and removeable drive scanning has been disabled, while external network access is still disabled
shame, no countdown yet
Someone plugged in the changes in person
is someone familiar with this code or it's just nonsense
Could be morse...
I can make no sense of it. It's certainly not standard code, but it may have some meaning in the string
there's no + or > in morse
I mean encoded morse
pasting the command into google gives the result of a programming language called brainfuck...
yeah
Could be some kind of interger string from a loop
You'll note that some parts of the text seem to 'grow'
Trying to piece it together seems kinda pointless though since, without context, it might as well be meaningless
It might be the case that everything besides . and - is meaningless, and it is morse.
it actually looks a lot like brainfuck thou.

it converts to that i think
Yep that's what I'm getting
It's probably got errors in the code
we do have + in morse code
If you change a + the whole string changes
but > don't have any means?
We might be missing something, or we're supposed to decode the end result.
That site doesn't seem to recognize all of the characters, either.
Yeah and the result outputs in a way that seems to break the page HTML, cuz i don't think the result supposed to go outside of the assigned text box
I don't want to manually decode that crap though, it looks awful, so that's the line where my curiosity and my laziness meet
i'll just put it in notepad++ and change it
so, what's + mean?
i still don't understand the above "machine operation":
It's a way of encoding text
If i've understood it correctly, imagine a long line of cells that looks like this:
[0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0][0]
Now each of those symbols is an operation. You can add, substract, move to the left, move to the right and a few other operations
'+' is add one to current cell
'-' is subtract one
'>' is move right
'<' is move left
ok
well translate it
I think the memory might be more useful
Memory:
[0] = (15)
[1] = (32)
[2] = 1 (49)
[3] = M (77)
[4] = Q (81)
[5] = Β
(133)
[6] = Β (156)
[7] = ΒΆ (182)
Was gonna say, may need to reinterpret what the decoder is giving us.
yea
It starts with a shift in
Considering that it's not completely meaningless (it's an actual language), it almost certainly means something.
Perhaps the shifting has something to do with the gibberish
We got a little farther on the french discord: Hint -> '-' is not what it seems
β and -
oh ye, we already got that
oo
there's a translator but it just gives this:

not rly useful
warden become japanese
I m i g h t be on to something using
this^
im trying to code somethin rl quick so I dont gotta go crazy trying to manually do all that shifting n stuff
ill update yall if I find anythin
wait no this^
Note that this is the output with the En-Dashes disguised as Hyphens
There are two types of en dashes btw
this guys voice is fuckin, so nice to listen to
anyone know the name behind it?
can you send me this text
ok

Given these instructions, this the output I got:
29 4 7 21 11 49 58 70
Yeah the trick to brainfuck
Is . = print
And it's not print in ASCII, but a standard alphabet
so 0=a, 1=b, 2=c, etc?
yeah basically, although i think a=1
to note, after the 70 there is a LOT of zeros, but I dont think thats too significant
with the zeros the output is
So:
++++++++.+.

good plan
google brainfuck and then you're as well informed on this as i am (which is to say, not very)
yeah
to be more specific, it's a program that outputs text
Here's the step throw the decode
the registry is just the memory states it uses to get to the text printed
so basically, stop at every "." and read the number at the current register, print the letter associated with that number, then keep going till the next "."
that's so much math lmao
Wait, so does [ mean anything?
granted, theres only one of [ and ] in there
It's basically a loop to be on 8 bytes of memory
Ah i see what amanes says
The initial code is 'corrupted'
What should be '-' are hyphens. Some of the '.' are '...' characters
did you take "..." to mean 3 * "."?
yup
created a program real quick to run this through it manually, heres what I got:
0 5 5 5 0 9 2 2 0 6 0 6 7 6 6 7 30 1 3 9 13 13 12 3 6 13 2 11 11 12 10 12 30 14 10 13 21 2 21 7 20 25 7 2 30 12 29 29 2 31 19 31 19 18 33 18 20 30 29 35 38 21 2 33 37 33 32 35 37 13 37 37 36 15 30 21 36 21 35 2 37 21 20 1 24 39 24 23 26 28 15 3 30 28 35 28 39 38 30 3 29 39 34 34 30 38 38 39 42 42 42 38 41 38 41 40 40 3 40 42 46 15 5 17 4 30 44 46 46 45 2 50 49 47 47 53 30 53 55 55 47 2 60 52 60 52 51 62 41 51 62 62 43 ```
what does this mean
excellent question
This doesn't seem in line with our findings
heres the rules I was using, they may be wrong:
+ add 1
- subtract 1
> move right 1
< move left 1
[ if current is 0, skip to ]
] if current is non-0, skip backwards to [
. print current location
You forgot the original values of the memory slots it seems
wdym
