Site comments have changed again:

There was a minor, insignificant error in the code here. Please ignore any message(s) you may find as a result of this unfortunate glitch. Apologies.

OWI.

True. The Tweet did seem to come on the second I put that code string in the chat box on the Soulstorm site.

FennecFyre 04-04-2016 07:37 AM

Manco's find makes me think we'll be getting more codes through script comments.

SUCK ON IT VLAM, THE ARG IS BACK IN ACTION!

Where do we find them?

There’s a few more ed tweets that we haven't looked at yet, some of those may hold clues.

Connell 04-04-2016 07:38 AM

I converted that binary and it says "can you hear me"

other than that one said 1029 in words and I put that in the chat box and nothing happened.

EDIT: since his tweets 1029 now returns:

[GEL NTNVA]

Which ciphers as "TRY AGAIN"

Manco 04-04-2016 07:40 AM

What about

Connell 04-04-2016 07:44 AM

Nothing. Combining the two (851212151029) gave me generic responses too, however:

C4GD851212151029

(Combining all 3 clues) gave me TRY AGAIN also

EDIT: Each time the order of "TRY AGAIN" is mixed, so maybe it's a case of getting them in the right order? Everyone have a tinker

EDIT 2: ED HAS TWEETED!

"You can hear me! Just, please, listen."

I had a look on Soundcloud at a whim haha. No Edmudokon registered.

The chatbox has also flipped round and features a ? over piece 2 of the code.

GOSH this got exciting didn't it?

EDIT 3: ED HAS TWEETED MORSE CODE

".-.. . .- .-. -. / - …. . / …. .. … - —- .-. -.— / —- ..-. / - …. . / -.-. .-. . .- - —- .-. …"

When translated there are a few errors but it is safe to assume it says:

LEARN THE HISTORY OF THE CREATORS

Manco 04-04-2016 07:47 AM

85121215 is a simple letters to numbers cipher: 8 5 12 12 15 becomes H E L L O.

Edit: Piece 2 has become a ?

EDIT: New tweets!

Morse Code on twitter:

translates to: learn?t?e??i?t?r???f?t?e?creat?r?

New Code segment seems to be a task for us: "15 Photoshops of alf's fez onto game characters".

But where to post them?

Manco 04-04-2016 07:58 AM

Piece 5 has been updated to O, but the 4-digit code isn’t revealed.

“15 photoshops of Alf's fez onto game characters”

What?

Edit: The URL of the Piece 5 image is: ed/JN3HD82YRE.jpg

Pirfsich 04-04-2016 07:59 AM

and also: www.oddworld.com/lorne-lanning/

Connell 04-04-2016 08:00 AM

Is this a task we have to do and send to Ed? Why 5 did we unlock that one too soon?

Connell 04-04-2016 08:00 AM

PIECE 2 IS ON LANNINGS PAGE AT THE BOTTOM

Scrabaniac 04-04-2016 08:00 AM

These letters will probably end up being an anagram. X and O is in Xtra Bone

Edit: Ive found2 Os :(

Pirfsich 04-04-2016 08:01 AM

www.oddworld.com/soulstorm/ed/JN3HD82YRE.jpg gives us another page of symbols...

nevermind... seemed to be a display issue from my side.

PIECE 2 IS ON LANNINGS PAGE AT THE BOTTOM

Fuuuck, what if they’re all hidden all over the site?

Edit: Each piece seems to have a task associated with it. Piece 2 is to get to 23k followers, piece 5 is to make 15 photoshops of Alf's fez.

I can do some shops over the weekend. Any character requests, folks?

Pirfsich 04-04-2016 08:08 AM

Lara Croft.

Connell 04-04-2016 08:09 AM

I think we hit 5 too early, you know. Still, let's get cracking!

Nepsotic 04-04-2016 08:09 AM

Let's compile them here.

I Photoshopped Alf's fez onto Alf.
