Because the same stuff keeps getting recycled lately, here's a summary:

* There is text scribbled into the background of MyEG.net/unknown. (Easy-to-view version)
Each piece of text says:
+ Show Spoiler +
--- "The face of the light"
--- "One more game, just one more game"
--- "Two face, two face, two face"
--- "I will not GG..."
--- "For the fans"


* The aforementioned text closely identifies with the following subjects:
+ Show Spoiler +
--- The face of the light: White-Ra (Egyptian Sun God)
--- One more game, just one more game: OneMoreGame.tv
--- Two face, two face, two face: To Face
--- I will not GG: IdrA
--- For the fans: Showmatch


* The first (of 5) MP3 has been revealed on the site. It contains recordings of two matches, commentated by various community figures, in between the sounds of waves (=liquid?) crashing.
+ Show Spoiler +
--- Game 1 is HuK vs HasuObs from TSL3.
--- Game 2 is HuK vs QXC from Day9 Daily #262.


* The file name of the MP3 is "neca_eos_omnes_deus_suos_agnoscet.mp3", which is a Latin phrase which translates into “Kill them all, God will know His own.” This phrase references a French crusade. I curiously attempted to subtract some sort of anagram from these letters, but unfortunately the only common/relevant words which stood out were:
+ Show Spoiler +
--- announce
--- guess
--- guest
--- game
--- omega
--- cameo
--- message
--- sea
--- coast
--- endgame
--- succeed
--- success
--- season
--- second
--- stage
--- tease
--- get
--- team


* In the javascript source code for the site, the web author's name was discovered on the 2nd line.
+ Show Spoiler +
--- Upon searching for this Author on Facebook, his location was revealed as Egypt.
--- The source has since been edited to display, "@author keep lookin..."


* Curiously, the following script which controls the countdown timer is written in Polish:
+ Show Spoiler +
--- var dzien=16;
--- var miesiac=8;
--- var rok=2011;
--- var godzina=12;
--- var minuta=00;
--- var sekunda=00;
--- var d = new Date(rok, (miesiac-1), dzien, godzina, minuta, sekunda, 0);
--- var curent = new Date();
--- var mili=d.getTime()-curent.getTime();
if(mili>0)


* As the countdown is based on the time of your computer clock, you can force all of the "Play" buttons to display by winding your clock forward. This accomplishes nothing though, as the MP3's have not yet been uploaded.

* It seems that EG is intentionally extending information and then revoking it, as seen by several cryptic tweets being posted, investigated, and then deleted. (ie. A scrambled tweet was posted directing users to NatGeo Egypt, and has since been deleted.) Along with the author being removed from the javascript, and also evidenced by looking at the source code for the first MP3 file.
+ Show Spoiler +

ID3vTCONOtherTYER2011TDATTXXXEngineerSound ForgeGEOBSfMarkers dGEOBˆSfCDInfod‰Æ’ÓÌÇL¿žbð“d‰Æ’ÓÌÇL¿žbð“DDUSLTengNice try, Reddit.ÿûÒüK€¤€ p.


* EG.LectR PM'd several TeamLiquid members with links to various YouTube links, accompanied with the messages, "THEY SHALL JOIN TOGETHER." and "THEY SHALL NEVER FORGET.#@))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))."
+ Show Spoiler +
--- One was a Lord of the Rings scene, where Gandalf the White commands reinforcements from the East.
--- Another was a Johnny Cash song. I haven't been able to ascertain which song it was.


* EG.LectR bumped the fan-club threads for every single member of Team EG. He has since been banned.

* When Heosat was asked to confirm/deny whether or not HuK was joining EG, he said he was not at liberty to comment. He removed this post soon after.

* Several key community figures who know what the announcement is, have suggested that there will be some form of community backlash.
+ Show Spoiler +
--- Kennigit: "Some massive drama is going to go down in about a week which people have known for months."
--- FXO.BoSs: "A new protoss player is my guess.... Maybe huk or sase."
--- Mr Bitter: "As someone that knows what it is, I can assure you all, this announcement may cause internet implosion."
--- Heosat: Wwhat I can say is this: it is the first item of a chain of news items. Sadly not all the items are good news. "


I think that pretty much sums up everything so far... it's hard to say which elements are red herrings and which are substance.

My own personal speculation is some kind of partnership / player trade between EG and Liquid.


amazing job with the summary. I basically did the same stuff as you. This is really crazy. I'm debating whether it's all connected. Some of the information I think is pure speculation, but I really think we are onto something.

The amount of thought and digging people are putting into this is entertaining. Getting so trolled if you think Huk would join EG.

Didn't White-Ra say that the community was more important than winning tournaments, or was that someone else?

Pretty sure it was serious, if you read the Fanclub. Can always hope it's not though ~_~


Dude has a beautiful wife and is easily the most handsome man in Starcraft, with the possible exception of Tasteless.

He's probably just in a funk.

That was indeed Whitera, and was said in a recent interview. Don't remember from where, possible rakaka.

At this point I'm wondering if iNcontroL, SirScoots, and Hot_Bid have combined their powers to pull off the greatest troll in history.

Seems as likely as anything.

Not really the thread to discuss this in, but your refusing to take his word on his life, because you admire his life?

Also, didn't Tyler take down his Twitter recently? I can't seem to find it anymore...I wonder if there is something more there...maybe he is retiring or quitting SC2 for a different game?

Well, theres plenty of seemingly successful people that are depressed. Go to teamliquidpro . com and check the posts on the right side, the ones tyler posted in his own fanclub.

As far as I can tell, Lectr only bumped Idra, Machine, and DeMuslim, not Incontrol. Maybe he got banned before he could. Here is what he posted.

I was thinking that these were either codes or hotkeys to a build order or something...

Hrm I like that but I'd like to think its but one part of the big picture. I doubt they would hype White-ra joining EG that much.

it sure seemed like thermaltake gave white-ra some decent money, doesn't really make sense for him to join EG unless Tt is just a sponsor.. shrug

First thing I thought of was those hotkey fingerprints (you know, how we identified anonymous as MVP), but that'd be ridiculous. XD

Wow this stuff is quite intense.

Thanks for the summary post Dox!

EG.Lectr getting banned sounds suspicious. It could either be just an incorrect move by a mod (he looks like an official EG representative), or it's designed to hype this even further (perhaps more likely, despite what everyone wants to say about TL mods).

I would like to know how much fun the TL/EG Staff and the trusted insiders have with a bunch of nerds on the interwebz making up theories like it's a global conspiracy.

I really have no clue but i am definitely tickled on my interest to need to know more.
All men can see these tactics whereby I conquer, but what none can see is the strategy out of which victory is evolved.
