Valve Conspiracies: The Portal Radio Update (Megathread Mark II) - Games

[QUOTE=Max of S2D;20550484]Another new crazy theory: the Apollo dino files are referring to the Black Mesa satellite (remember the end of Episode Two?)[/QUOTE] Then the second pic (which acording the pictures it is with) is a reference to a robot, could it be DOG?

[QUOTE=Max of S2D;20550392][img]http://i.imgur.com/2pH6v.png[/img][/QUOTE] Hey I had to sign up to let you guys know that Public law 83-703 has to do with the Atomic energy act of 1954 ([url]http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/nuregs/staff/sr0980/v1/sr0980v1.pdf[/url]) and Public Law 99-474 has to do with the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 ([url]http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d099:HR04718:@@@L&summ2=m&[/url]). Make what you will from that. lol

[QUOTE=Max of S2D;20550484]Another new crazy theory: the Apollo dino files are referring to the Black Mesa satellite (remember the end of Episode Two?)[/QUOTE] Or the one on the rocket you have to launch in HL1 (the "Satellite Delivery Rocket").

Apparently the Xen skyboxes were there from the game's launch. Cross them off the list :/

Damn it Max, promise me you won't go to bed in at least 72 hours.

[QUOTE=kostiak;20550530]True, but that could be just a standard thing that is included in the BBS interface, so may not mean anything.[/QUOTE] This is [i]VALVE[/i]. Everything means something.

Welcome back speel.

So, here we have one of the latests BBS images, resized a bit. [img]http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/1419/portalbbsmgs.png[/img] [b]COMPARE![/b] [img]http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/7131/bigbossz.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Lexinator;20550513]im mazed at how the satellite is still up there anyway im setting up a stream of the bbs how do connect to it?[/QUOTE] I think you need a modem, i dunno

[QUOTE=kostiak;20550530]True, but that could be just a standard thing that is included in the BBS interface, so may not mean anything.[/QUOTE] Not really sure a standard bbs is going to be referencing the militarization of nuclear power.... ex. a. The development, utilization, and control of atomic energy for military and for all other purposes are vital to the common defense and security.

[QUOTE=MasterF3n;20550499]Or the one on the rocket you have to launch in HL1 (the "Satellite Delivery Rocket").[/QUOTE] They're the same rocket. I mean the rocket from Ep2 went and connected with the rocket from HL remotely.

[QUOTE=Kazumi;20550540]Damn it Max, promise me you won't go to bed in at least 72 hours.[/QUOTE] I'll be doing the thread's Mark III, don't worry :wink: [editline]12:05PM[/editline] <Vegetaman> LOL @ google image searching ARG 1 and ARG 7 (meaningless since ARG means something in computer terms), but "Arizona Rocket Gathering 7 - held Feb 26-28, 2010"

[QUOTE=Max of S2D;20550563]I'll be doing the thread's Mark III, don't worry :wink:[/QUOTE] Damn right you are! :wink: You're doing a great job so far.

Oh wow, you guys are using Unfiction/Unforum's chat server. God, so many memories of ARGs.

The IRC is currenty investigating the ARG trail (see the latest BBS dump, where we got passwords and stuff) [editline]12:12PM[/editline] the third dinosaur fizzle contains an extract of the ending robot voice (thank you for assuming the party e--) [editline]12:13PM[/editline] JUST GOT A NEW IMAGE FROM THE BBS! [img]http://i.imgur.com/OgSUs.png[/img]

Like I said, the arg thing is probably meaningless, but google image search on ARG 7 yields: [img]http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/6645/arg7copy.gif[/img] [img]http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/9352/cas5cgif5c65147220.gif[/img] And ARG 1 always returns something about Genes and Arginaise/Liver... I only find the chemistry one interesting because one of the dumped images from awhile back on the BBS looks like a chemistry formula of some sort...

[QUOTE=Lexinator;20550513]im mazed at how the satellite is still up there anyway im setting up a stream of the bbs how do connect to it?[/QUOTE] Simple answer: you *DON'T*. As mentioned many many times, *even in the OP*, the BBS only has a limited number of connections available. People who know how to connect to a BBS are already doing it - no need for you to get in the way and slow things up for them.

After editing the dinosaur fizzle 3, I got this: [url]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1288617/portal/dinosaur_fizzle3_tyforassuming.wav[/url] From the new ending.

Too much effort probably.

When I played the new ending with thirdperson view on there isn't any model for the robot that takes you away :(

If you'd read the thread and brought yourself up to speed, you would already have the link. It's getting very old reading posts from people who haven't read the thread. If you haven't read the entirety of this thread, any questions you have have probably already been answered. So read it.

[QUOTE=Lexinator;20550665]well link me to a stream?[/QUOTE] not useful, it's just a progress bar right now which updates whenever it damn well pleases [editline]12:19PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Marlamin;20550680]I'm surprised some griefers haven't setup a shitload of constant connections to keep us out yet. Too much effort probably.[/QUOTE] that's because you have to connect to a phone number and that costs money :wink:

[QUOTE=Vazzan;20550689]When I played the new ending with thirdperson view on there isn't any model for the robot that takes you away :([/QUOTE] Why would there be? It's poor game design to model something that you aren't intended to see anyway.

Valve's conspiracies scare me. The sounds and cryptic nature of it all freaks me out. Still, though. It's completely enthralling what they do. Can't wait to see what's behind all this.

The Transmission Received achievement might boost how fast the progress bar is, well, progressing, so here's a quick guide if you don't have the achieve yet [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSqG-SmXriU[/url]
