Oh did you now?

Yes I did

:

Yeah, as i mentioned prior, the glitch made the word "abe" a couple times maybe i'll have a another looksee.

Like Nep said, the word "Abe" or similar are not mentioned during the glitch effect. I checked the entire video frame per frame in a video editor and there's nothing unusual.

Holy shit was tired that day!(smack) I flippin meant at 4 secs i but I typed in 52 secs. I don't even get how I mixed that up. But like I said it was likely nada.

Damn I need a holiday over the holidays...

I'm pretty sure I posted something here and it disappeared. Bug?

No, just me doing my job... your post was inappropriate.

Heads up: People spamming in this thread will get infractions.
It doesn't matter how funny you think the word "rise" is.

Mr. Molluck · #**308** 12-22-2016, 10:49 AM

I'm starting to get the feeling that we may receive something come the holidays... maybe a trailer?

Yeah, pretty sure that quote is left over from the last round of the ARG before we found 1029.io. Everything from that last step was left in the source code. The .ZIP clue is still in there and everything.

Really great to see Ed back in action. Let's hope this is gearing up to something good! Doesn't look like there's anything new on 1029.io at the minute.

Can't believe it's been 6 months since we last heard from Ed on Twitter. Feels like it was more recent.

Silver angel · #**310** 12-24-2016, 12:44 AM

New message on SPIRIT OF 1029‏ twitter:

We are the storm.

Samtastic · #**311** 01-06-2017, 02:23 AM

They're now glitching their Twitter page today*and they've updated their icon. Looks like they'll be revealing something*about*Soulstorm soon.

Connell · #**312** 01-06-2017, 03:01 AM

Indeed they are! Looks like Alf is in charge of Twitter today; OWI's profile picture on their is a shuffled version of Alf from the Alf's escape DLC. He's on there for a Dear Alf session apparently, and he had an exchange with Ed:

Also, Spirit of 1029 is off on one as well:

I suppose we should try asking Alf some stuff... right?

Also, no changes to the source code on 1029.

Varrok · #**313** 01-06-2017, 03:33 AM

Ask him what we need to do to advance in ARG

***Xavier*** · #**314** 01-06-2017, 06:00 AM

Ok for some reason I think that was extremely cool. I hope it doesn't end here tho.

Connell · #**315** 01-06-2017, 06:04 AM

Same. Ed seems to be having a really hard time believing that it is actually Alf. He's in total denial. So Ed must've known Alf previously; did Ed work at Rupture Farms? Or perhaps that's thinking too much into it haha.

Maybe it's not actually Alf and they're trying to trick Ed

The mind boggles.

EDIT: Too risky for Ed to get in touch;

too risky. can't talk...

I can't disagree, the dialogue is mesmerizing.

Lord Vhazen · #**317** 01-06-2017, 04:21 PM

Okay I honestly had no idea any of this was happening until today.... After looking through this entire thread, I am moderately spooked. This is some seriously cryptic serial-killer shiz...

C'mon in, pull up a chair!

Gunnr · #**319** 01-08-2017, 02:53 PM

Alf!

Do you think he knows where Ed is or recall the last time he saw him so to speak? Or do we need to convince Ed that it really is Alf here?

Ed is who Abe gypped out of Employee of the Month, but also friends with Alf. They have a kind of high school love triangle thing going on.

No but seriously, who actually is Ed.

Connell · #**321** 01-08-2017, 07:28 PM

I find it a bit strange that OWI's Twitter announced that Alf was "here to answer our questions" and then proceeded to not reply to a single tweet from the general public haha. Potentially very confusing for anyone that doesn't know what the ARG is.

Varrok · #**322** 01-08-2017, 10:13 PM

Or maybe Alf just doesn't work on weekends.

Dear Alf will be returning to oddworld.com as a regular column. Unless, of course, Alf has higher priorities.

***Xavier*** · #**324** 01-09-2017, 12:24 AM

Ah, thanks for clearing this up, I agree with Connell that this was a bit confusing

Oooh that's really cool, something to look forward to. He could end up having to run some sort of Rehab and Tea type establishment though, you never know

Sup guys, Happy New Year, everyone!
New OWI's Twitter avatar with Alf.
Perhaps there's something out there?

Tried to increasED contrast and sees strange black bars, though it's possible there is nothing here, but tried anyway:

Ed just tweeted this.

evidence... i can see it all... scared...
— ed (@edmudokon) January 9, 2017

Maybe it means we should look further into the new profile picture?

For reference here's the original pic:

EDIT:
When asked if he could help us a bit he replied with:

help? i can help? too risky...
— ed (@edmudokon) January 9, 2017

EDIT 2:

@edmudokon We've gotta see it- people need ta know what's happening... Be careful Ed.

@OddworldInc alf? i can help?

EDIT 4:

They are all waking up it seems

@SPIRITOF1029 @OddworldInc yes... careful... risky... i gotta help...
— ed (@edmudokon) January 9, 2017

EDIT 5:

@edmudokon Photographs, Ed- we need people to see. You've gotta be brave.
— Oddworld Inhabitants (@OddworldInc) January 9, 2017

Does this mean we will get to see something?

Connell · #**329** 01-09-2017, 05:59 AM

Exciting. The most recent tweet from Alf saying "photographs" is intriguing. Screenshots incoming? I wonder if there will be a hunt to find them with ARG clues, or will Ed just upload them to Twitter? We'll have to wait and see. Either way, exciting times

I wonder what their timeframe is for releasing them. I want it to be today but I'm worried it won't be for a while still haha.

***Xavier*** · #**330** 01-09-2017, 07:53 AM

Sounds like they are building up something, I hope it's gonna be good

Oddworld has been blind to the plight of the noble Mudokons for too long. We will rise. Join us! 1029.io
