Well, I get that it's not explicitly linked to Pyromania Update ARG, but the timing fits and I don't think there CAN be proof of them being related before it is released. Maybe we should add it and remove if it turns out to be a false lead? [[User:ShooterAndy|ShooterAndy]] 08:46, 26 June 2012 (PDT)

Futureproofing

@Mouseketeer In the event of more ARGs taking place, how should these articles be structured? All described in this article, or belonging to a category? Vide0n 23:15, 21 June 2012 (PDT)

That's something to worry about when, or if, we get to that road. But I do not oppose the article being moved to a better name if need be. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 23:19, 21 June 2012 (PDT)
Would be also nice to add this page to the {{Mysterious Items Nav}} template. And maybe rename this template, but this can wait until more info comes. — Login Soldier.pngStormbird TC 01:15, 22 June 2012 (PDT)

The link of 8th QR Code

Seemed to be a duplicate of #7?

  • +1. Also no image for QR code 1 now :( --Genuine GAL 00:43, 22 June 2012 (PDT)
As far as I know 7 and 8 point to the same URL. However I do not know if they have different QR codes as I cannot locate them. I also could not find QR code 1. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 01:23, 22 June 2012 (PDT)

It probably doesn't matter, but bananas were apparently craftable before the day 3 update.

On the third day of the ARG, I booted up TF2 in the morning, and kept it open. Later that day, I saw that bananas were craftable, and produced a weird error, but when I went to craft them, it just said "Crafting successful!" with no errors. (And no new item produced)

I then restarted TF2 and it updated, thus allowing me to craft and receive the error like normal.

Schema update, your point is invalid rZ 04:37, 23 June 2012 (PDT)

Text version of the image

I typed out the Saxton Hale Hearing Transcript. Thought it'd be useful to someone: http://pastebin.com/69zV7J6eDarkwater 09:27, 22 June 2012 (PDT)

Call me crazy, but could Poopy Joe and the Pyro be related somehow? Maybe Pyro IS Poopy Joe? He does have that snazzy Moonman Pack, at least...Pakaku 20:07, 22 June 2012 (PDT)
Still, Pyro can be anything. Folks at the Deadwood Achievement server say that the Pyro could be a female alien, while on Railbait some of us say that the Pyro is Scout's mother. EMD SD90ACe 04:35, 23 June 2012 (PDT)

Pyro Post

If you place all the words over 3 letters as long sounds and the words with 3 letters or less as a short sound you get: -- --- -. -.. .- -.-- This is Monday in Morse Code. Perhaps a small clue. Also the "mph" (Last word of the first line) links directly to the movies page. Perhaps we could add these two facts in even if they're going to be trivia. Shamjam96 15:25, 22 June 2012 (PDT)

This is already noted in the article. The 'mph' word link is just the image box overlapping the text. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 15:30, 22 June 2012 (PDT)
I am pretty sure I read somewhere there was another tie-up with SMNC - is it possible that "Monday" relates to Super Monday Night Combat? There was an update earlier not long before the blog update so there may be some egg hiding in there? Casperr 17:55, 22 June 2012 (PDT)
Monday more likely relates to the day when "Meet the Pyro" will be released.Railden 15:42, 23 June 2012 (PDT)

Second Uber Update

Do any of you guys think that these minor updates could be hints to an eventual update explosion? That's what I think is going to happen. EMD SD90ACe 04:40, 23 June 2012 (PDT)

Oh, please, they DO explode. Backpack Dragonborn Helmet.png  Ed  04:46, 23 June 2012 (PDT)
Maybe this time it would be supernova sized? EMD SD90ACe 15:00, 23 June 2012 (PDT)
Supernova will be an understatement :D Pakaku 17:04, 24 June 2012 (PDT)

Regarding the Wiki Changes

Is there any specific reason why we are not to include the wiki changes into the ARG page? I understand its a "Joke" but are we really 100% sure that valve didn't ask them to do this? --{{SUBST:User:DeadflyProductions/Sig}} 08:31, 23 June 2012 (PDT)

Done by the insane wiki guys, to make the wiki 100% less informative for people who dont get code. No valve job. TheDoctor 08:35, 23 June 2012 (PDT)
Why do people never get that it's just a joke? ~Sven~ 17:30, 24 June 2012 (PDT)

Some details left out

I think it should be noted that the banana peel as well as the wallpaper links were not there earlier (only a floor was shown). Also it says "A page from the transcript" when you can see more pages by clicking on that page, is this new or just a mistake on behalf of the writer?

Mysterious Promo 5

Well, I get that it's not explicitly linked to Pyromania Update ARG, but the timing fits and I don't think there CAN be proof of them being related before it is released. Maybe we should add it and remove if it turns out to be a false lead? ShooterAndy 08:46, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
