I've listened to the audio and it sent the most disturbing shivers down my spine, I started shaking. I haven't got that from anything (movie/book/music) in a very long time. You guys, have done a very good job to get all you have from it.

I'm investigating the arrows with Kevin.

Here's what I could make of the arrow code on the right side of the sheet, when read from Top-to-Bottom:

↖ ↖ ← ↙ ↘ - ↓ ↘ ↙ - ↓ ↑ ↖(?) ← - ↖ ↖ ↑ ↓ ↓ ↖ ↙ - ↓ ↘ ↙ - ↓ ↙ ↖ - ← ↙ ↙ ...(?)

Not sure what way they need to be read, or if they are even relevant. I'm not certain of the third arrow in the third group, or the final arrow, which I've left blank. I've also separated the groups of arrows with a hyphen.

Goodluck to whoever can decipher this type of HTML. It jogged up a lot of memories just to recognise the coding on the side of the paper, but unfortunately, this is now a foreign language to me.

That cipher near the bottom, its not the Tic-Tac Code of the "We will rise" piece. Anyone solved it yet?

EDIT: Well, just realized the background audio is mudokons screaming for help. I'm not sleeping tonight.

The bottom cipher is YOU ARE THE KEY YOU KNOW IT IF YOU WERE LISTENING -

I still can't seem to make sense of the audio code, so I'm hoping Connell's friends come upon something.

I'm still wondering how we're meant to use the "key" when we find it... maybe just tweeting it to 1029 or Ed or OWI is enough

I've tried separating the morse from the background sounds myself, but its all on similar frequencies and tones, my programs can't pick all of it out.

A person from OWF's FB page has troubles logging in, so I decided to forward the message:
:
Hey so I can't log into OWF and password reset ain't sending, I just wanted to say I'm pretty sure the arrow code on the right of the piece of paper (image oddworld just put up on Soulstorm), is Semaphore code. Semaphore code is often written as arrows. I'm on mobile walking in rain atm so not able to grab my decode book, can anyone look into this for me?

it should be 12 and 20.

if you search "20-12-17" on Google, you'll find this :

From what I saw at first glance, Semaphore involves both arms/flags per symbol, so I'm not sure how one would try to decode this in Semaphore due to there being single arrows

So good news and bad news; the Morse proved a bit more tricky for them than originally thought, but they did still manage to isolate it and make it pretty clean. It wasn't slowed down to avoid potentially distorting the beeps, but here's the first effort to share with you. I'm sure someone can do something with it: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen.../Untitled.flac

I'm on mobile ATM so that's the only way I have to attach it. I hope it works, if not I'll sort it when I'm home this evening

It'd definitely possible to slow down an audio like that in a non-distorting way.

I feel like I'm guessing, but could it be compass code? The picture would have to be made as straight as possible to work out angles, but it could work?

That mention's cool. The book name tho: Exodus
Doesn't this title remind you an old game you all know?

Also Varrok is right, there are ways to slow down an audio without distorting the beeps. Gonna see if I can do something but I doubt it.

Ok so i got the flac file that Connel uploaded and i tried to upload it on morsecode.scphillips.com but it didnt work. So i used a converted to convert it to mp3, and then uploaded it again. First of all let me say that i have no idea about audio or morse code. I am just experimenting. I used this setting and i got this as a translation
I dont know. Every other setting that i have tried gave me gibberish, so i was kinda confused when i saw this one. Thats why i posted it here
Its probably nothing

edit: after using this one i got this messege!
edit2: and the last setting gave me this!

Those look more like demo codes from the site itself, rather than something hidden in the audio file. I think you might have made a mistake.

Sorry to say this but I agree with Manco. They look like the settings' demo codes. Are you sure you clicked the right play button?

No worries Gou, everyone can make mistakes
Anyway I slowed down the audio and uploaded it to the morse code site to translate it and it gives me this message (with the normal setting):

Inspector Morse setting: E

I'm confused

I know. If you select one of them and click the apply button you can use the same parameters of those samples, so they kinda work like settings.
