Mysterious images and sounds posted on /v/. Valve-related? - Games

The original threads by "missing-data" have died. [B]I have no reason to believe and/or make anyone believe this is Valve-related, however the text in the second picture can be seen as a lot of things, like #HALE or #HOLE (in this case #HALE would be TF2 related.)[/B] Someone named "missing-data" posted on /v/ about an hour ago with a static, broken image, followed by a title and text in hexadecimal text. The text translated to this link: [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/ESRCPFR301.wav[/url] It appears to be static noice with a weard noice in the background. The image in the thread's OP: [img]http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/7642/srckael.png[/img] About ten minutes late, "missing-data" posted again, with a less broken image, and another hexademical code, which translated to this link: [url]http://filesmelt.com/dl/ERCPR3.wav[/url] Once again, static noice, but this time with a somewhat distinguishable voice in the background. And the image that was in the OP: [img]http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/9895/sanlik.png[/img] As you can see, in the second picture, there appear to be letters. The image is still way too broken to be read, but conspiracy theories aren't half bad, are they? "missing-data" hasn't posted anything the last hour, and it seems to be calming down. However one of the threads was bumped to the top pretty much all the time, when it suddenly got deleted, and the other one was forgotten and auto-deleted. Of course, it could just be someone trolling, but just in case, you know... There is an active thread on /v/ with some discussion around this: [url]http://boards.4chan.org/v/res/68527118[/url]

4chan lmao

Way to snipe.

Why should be this any related to Valve What the fuck

That scared me shitless

I dont think this is Valve related but its a tad fucked if you ask me.

What makes you think this is Valve related?

"SOUND #HALE" ? I think that's what it says.

[QUOTE=Stizzles;23673334]"SOUND #HALE" ? I think that's what it says.[/QUOTE] Could be HOLE or HALF or HOLF. You never know with those capital letters.

[QUOTE=alex525;23673280]What makes you think this is Valve related?[/QUOTE] A lot of things about valve have been posted on /v/ before. So I dunno. Instinct? Might've fit better in General Games, now that I think again... [editline]03:24AM[/editline] [QUOTE=Stizzles;23673334]"SOUND #HALE" ? I think that's what it says.[/QUOTE] Saxton Hale?

Anyways, this is extreme bullshit. /thread.

I guess, buuut in the long run, I just think someone's trolling. But a man can dream, a man can dream. :ohdear:

Highly unlikely to be Valve related. Why would they post an ARG on 4chan?

sound whale

[QUOTE=Baboo00;23673396]Anyways, this is extreme bullshit. /thread.[/QUOTE] I'm thinkin this, but you can never be too sure.

[QUOTE=Tc3001;23673405]Highly unlikely to be Valve related. Why would they post an ARG on 4chan?[/QUOTE] Exactly. Why WOULD they? Its the last place anyone would expect someone to post episode 3 canon content. Watch they will release a demo to it on 4chan and people will go its a virus dont dl it!111

I'm off to bed guys. When I wake up I hope to see some news. :v:

Also 4chan has been plagued by spam bots today.

[QUOTE=Baboo00;23673379]Could be HOLE or HALF or HOLF. You never know with those capital letters.[/QUOTE] Not HOLF, because there is an O (S[B]O[/B]UND) in there, and it looks different from letter in the other word, which bears a stronger resemblance to an A. But yes, it could be HALF, or HALE. [QUOTE=Matt PL;23673416]sound whale[/QUOTE] Where have you ever seen a W with a horizontal line in it? :colbert:

Wasn't able to make anything out of the first one, but the second sounds to me like "*garbled* it's faulty *garbled* *garbled* more"

Valve wouldn't post stuff on /v/, and they would NEVER do the same ARG-type-thing twice (With the sounds-into-images-shit).

[QUOTE=The Pink Scotti;23673239]Why should be this any related to Valve What the fuck[/QUOTE] yeah guys, why be this any related to valve?

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;23673849]Valve wouldn't post stuff on /v/, and they would NEVER do the same ARG-type-thing twice (With the sounds-into-images-shit).[/QUOTE] Yeah, and I don't think they'd upload stuff to sites like filesmelt.

[QUOTE=Tacosheller;23673849]Valve wouldn't post stuff on /v/, and they would NEVER do the same ARG-type-thing twice (With the sounds-into-images-shit).[/QUOTE] That's what they want you to think.

I'm pretty sure there's some info hidden in the static noise's infra/ultrasound layers.

ITT: nobody understands the concept of subliminal advertising

[QUOTE=skynrdfan2;23674004]ITT: nobody understands the concept of subliminal advertising[/QUOTE] we don't even know what it's fo OH GOD I GOTTA GO BUY ME SOME KFC

Why the hell would Valve post something on 4chan ? [editline]02:10AM[/editline] :doh:

Yeah, this is silly.

Your just giving furry a bad name.
