IVE BEEN ON MOBILE THE WHOLE DAY AND IM SCREAMING THAT ALL OF THIS IS HAPPENING AND I CANT HELP

You and me both...

I'm trying to piece together the progress you guys did for the wikia, I don't understand how this picture led to the text file:

http://oddworld.com/soulstorm/attemp...eventyfive.jpg

Can someone help?

Moot 03-24-2016 12:23 PM

Yeah, I don't think it's Abe talking to us. Maybe when we get responses with asterisks are this character talking to us, while the ones without the asterisks are just references and jokes?

Edit: @ Xavier Apparently if you look at that picture a certain way, you see a link? That's what I read when it came up. But I'm not entirely sure..

Scrabaniac 03-24-2016 12:27 PM

I have no idea what to do with this attempt picture

STM 03-24-2016 12:28 PM

It sounds like its one, or a group of, blind mudokons down in Necrum.

Varrok's friend did it. Nobody knows how.

Xavier 03-24-2016 12:50 PM

Thanks guys for your help. I did a small recap on the wikia:

http://oddworld.wikia.com/wiki/Soulstorm_ARG

Of course feel free to complete it if I forgot stuff.

Scrabaniac 03-24-2016 12:51 PM

Xavier and Nepsotic: this is how i found the text file.. I put Attemptnumberseventyfive.jpg into a magic eye solver online.....

FennecFyre 03-24-2016 12:52 PM

I'll go through and add in any communication channel responses that aren't on the list yet later.

Nepsotic 03-24-2016 12:56 PM

Add the attempt number 75 to the list of cryptic clues added to the page. I'm on mobile so it'd be a pain in the arse.

STM 03-24-2016 12:57 PM

I tried oddworld.com/intercepted.txt but I got nothing.

Varrok 03-24-2016 01:00 PM

STM, you silly, it's oddworld.com/soulstorm/intercepted.txt

Scrabaniac 03-24-2016 01:00 PM

type in http://oddworld.com/soulstorm/intercepted.txt

You've done a really fantastic job recapping everything. :D

I think there's something in this image we have to find...I mean, can we tidy up all the glitchy bits and see what it looks like? I know it's an image of the brewery but maybe something is hiding behind all the glitches.

Manco 03-24-2016 01:18 PM

Can someone with a wiki account make sure the images are saved as well?

Xavier 03-24-2016 01:22 PM

I saved them here at the moment:
http://oddworldlibrary.net/archives/...ulstorm_files/

I need to clean the Odd wide web to make it closer to the original structure of the site. I had no idea we would need it that much :)

EDIT: probably not related but what the hell:

Too slow ):

Babiroussa 03-24-2016 01:28 PM

yes I agree we are missing a clue in the brewery picture, the "wish you where here ?" quote seems really different from what we have found already in the other stuff and some part of the glitchy artefacts doesn't seem to belong to the artwork.

SoulStorm64 03-24-2016 01:38 PM

From what ive seen in the intercepted.txt hidden between the text is

"findme" "hear me" "rescue me"

Fancy shit is going on, after shifting through its gave me major eye strain. hopefully someone else can spot something in the text.

Scrabaniac 03-24-2016 01:41 PM

Theres nothing else. Copy and paste the text into www.wordcounter.com and it picks out all words in a block of text.

Babiroussa 03-24-2016 01:44 PM

if you write "intercepted" in the form the answer is "Find my message, hear my voice". The message is probably the picture and the voice the audio file. So i'm pretty sure we found everything there was in the intercepted.txt file.

SoulStorm64 03-24-2016 01:47 PM

Well besides the words Spirit and #RF.

#RF interests me, probably is nothing though; but who knows subtle hints of going back to rupture farms? too early to tell i guess.

Scrabaniac 03-24-2016 01:48 PM

It leads to Spiritof1029.jpg. #RF is rupture farms.

TafuSeler 03-24-2016 01:55 PM

It's not on the wiki page so i think it hasn't been discovered yet, but typing "albino slig" also gives you "GET DOWN!"

Varrok 03-24-2016 01:55 PM

just "slig" gives you the same response
