GTA V Metaphors, Philosophy and Hidden Meanings.

[TrevorsStinkyFingers]

Is everyone aware of what we are voting for? The first question decides if this thread is locked or not. If it is not locked then we keep this thread and the second question becomes irrelevant. If we decide to lock it then our second vote kicks in where we decide what the name and topic will be for this thread's replacement.

 

I think that's how it is. If Raavi is readings this then please correct me if i am wrong.

 

Also guys regarding all this twitter revolution, i'd rather distance myself from that to be honest. We haven't even got DLCs etc from them yet but we know it's coming. Ever heard the saying " Don't bite the hand that feeds you".

Im @SaveableOne, is there a way to make a twitter group or page for the gtaforums or the decode thread were we can all join to see everyone tweet? Im still not too sure how it all works

Yes, there is a way to create a list of users on twitter. You go to your profile and then choose lists, although you may already figured this out by now.

I noticed this a long time ago when I first looked at the Digital Manual's satellite map... I posted it and nobody cared much about it... I've been back over there and there is nothing obvious that I've found...

As far as I can tell, you can even still see this in that big satellite map that people have be using lately... it is probably just some odd glitch, but I wonder if it was anything that was cut from the game...

 

I invite you to go and read your first post on this and the replys you got.

 

There were at least 2 of us that instantly dropped what we were doing and went to look at your question.

 

I personally told you exactally what it is.

Sorry if tjis sounds abrasive but i read this a lot where ive taken the time to investigate and help someone then yhey turn round and say nobody was interested in it.

 

 

 

I cant vote because i dont agree with either option on the second vote. My first vote is to leave this thread open, the 2 suggested new threads are totally pointless.

yea i cant vote either. its kinda forcing you to choose yay lol

 

I got 5 likes on what i said thats enough votes for me

[Crimie]

Heres the list for people to add their username to get in on the retweeting

 

Twitter.com/SaveableOne/lists/chiliad-mystery

 

Im tweeting Epsilon all sorts of Uncle Brother stuff and Tadd is sending everyone the funniest pic youll ever see of Trevor with the Alien Egg. Its a long shot but its something productive and if they see enough fans putting in the effort we might get lucky and R* might say something at least cryptic.

@stangone and scooby. Have you done anything about your disagreements regarding the vote? Or are you just going to sit on the fence and in the process remove yourselves from having any say in the final outcome of the vote?

 

Xmarqs is creating a metaphorical thread so that that stuff stays out of this thread. We are deciding wether or not to lock this thread. If we lock it then we get a new thread named/themed by the second vote. If it is not locked then we just keep this thread.

[Scoobysrt]

Sitting on the fence?

 

Ive stated that i vote not to lock this thread but disagree with the second two options.

It wont let me vote for one and not the other.

The system will not let you vote unless you vote to lock the thread and open a new one. Its been cleaverly done.

 

So no, i dont sit on any fence, ever.

[Fran_Halen]

Hey all. I have a save with Trevor killed now and I'm working on another where I'm going to kill Michael. I'll have game saves with all 3 options soon and I'll keep you all posted on anything different I come across. I've been leaning towards the possibility of the mural meaning a different reward for each ending. Keep up the good work hunters

[tadd]

I see it as, this will become just for the mural stuff... the general hunt will be for anything mystery related (like whitelist but apparently open to all) and then X has the metaphor hunt sorted... so i voted leave this open and also open a new general mystery hunt topic.

 

And lol at twitter, got 21 retweets since i posted my twitter... come on guys anyone else wanna join in im @

 

And i understand we havent got DLC yet, but in my eyes if they release the rest of the mystery in DLC or the jetpack in DLC then (even though i have a connection and regularly buy game DLC) i will feel cheated and robbed that the biggest easter egg of the game was incomplete.

 

They could have just said a long time ago that there will be DLC easter egg stuff and everyone would have slowed the hunt and waited... maybe saved up money or arranged a way to get DLC if you dont usually have a connection... instead they maybe released a game that has half of "the greatest easter egg in game history" and may even make us pay extra to get the answers...

 

I say let us revolt on twitter and harass them till they answers our questions

 

Even just saying we know you are hunting and there is stuff you havent found... then we can actually whole heartedly hunt... but who wants to search one of the biggest GTA worlds without even knowing if there is a point...

 

i would personally sweep every inch of land, sea and air if they would just tell us there is more... otherwise im gonna be lazy like they maybe have for 5 years and left half the good stuff out!!

 

As some mentioned recently in PM, its RDR undead nightmare all over again

I thought i was agreeing with him . we both said we cant vote because well honestly the poll is f*cked ok lol

 

If you choose nay you still have to choose to rename a new thread and if you choose yay you want to delete the thread so either way thread gets deleted .

Bed for me now guys... just put a pic of the R* dev who blocked and reported me for asking him a simple question on twitter... think he is worried i will try and bum him if he doesnt give us answers lol if you wanna join in...

 

Either way, nice way to deal with the fans... i wonder if block and report was in their NDA? So far not one R* dev will even acknowledge me (apart from my buddy phil who just blocked me from following him and reported me for spam lol)

 

Night guys... im hoping we get a few more users on twitter... please guys even if you have to make one just for the mystery, it is worth a shot

 

Im off to the protogalaxy

Edited August 19, 2020 by tadd

[TrevorsStinkyFingers]

Still you don't understand.

 

To clarify, the options are:

 

Keeping the V2 thread.

Locking the V2 thread opening a V3 thread.

Locking the V2 thread opening a general Mystery Hunt thread.

 

So those of you sitting on the fence please understand that by doing nothing you are ultimately excluding yourselves from the decision.

 

If you have any problems or queries PM Raavi.

[Scoobysrt]

No, you dont understand. We have the right not to vote.

 

But to lay it out for you,

 

I vote yes keep this thread.

I vote no to open a v3 thread.

I vote no to open a general thread.

 

Please tell me how i can vote in the poll with those choices.

 

Edit, im not going to be apart of derailing this thread over a stupid poll. What happens, happens. If it doesnt suit me i shall stop posting. It will not affect anything real in my world.

Edited February 2, 2014 by Scoobysrt

[TrevorsStinkyFingers]

@scooby. Yes you do have the right not to vote so like i said ultimately you are excluding yourself from the final decision(The Vote). You can vote in the poll with the options in the vote and that is it.

 

PM Raavi if you have a problem. If not the make your vote and let's get on with the hunt.

[cerevantis74]

http://www.reddit.com/r/chiliadmystery/comments/1wqaok/mysterious_green_glow/

 

Reddit users a bit behind?

Then claim THEY stumbled onto it.

[tadd]

@cerevantis... i noticed that also... as i said they post what we were doing a few pages or days before

 

@the confusion over the poll...

 

Options are... keep this open or close it

 

Next option is open a general mystery topic...

 

As i said i voted to keep this topic and open a new general mystery one also...

 

Then we have a mural topic (this one)

 

Mystery topic (new general mystery)

 

And metaphor topic (that X is making)

 

Yes they have made the options very weird lol but just vote to keep this and make a new general mystery... we will take the hunt to where ever is less troll infested

 

Edit: bed time for me for real now lol

Edited February 2, 2014 by tadd

[Scoobysrt]

I dont have a problem, you seem to.

I can not vote in a poll that does not contain an outcome i prefer.

You have given me 2 choices, i make my vote or i pm raavi. Im telling you ive taken my right of option 3 of not voting. Im sure raavi doesnt want my whining on pm either.

 

If you vote to lock this thread you are left with an option to make another thread to replace it.

The two options are a thread the same as this one or a thread the same as this one. No other choice.

So if you vote lock this thread then you are voting to replace it with the same.

Thats happened before hence this is v2.

we still end ip with 1 thread.

 

If you vote keep this thread then you are left with two choices,

Open a new thread the same as this one or open a thread the same as this one assumedly a bit better moderated.

We are left with two threads the same with info spread across each one.

 

Either way either choice is pointless and not needed.

 

Edit, my point is, this is already the general thread. A thread that ONLY deals with the drawing on mount chilliaid is going to be a very short thread because assumedly it will be heavily moderated which means theres very limited discussion other than overlay ideas. It also asks tbe question who is going to be god and decide they know better on what relates to the drawing or not.

 

Whichever way you vote on that poll screws up our search. those that have voted are contributing to screwing up where were at now.

To use an example, currently the vote is to keep this thread and open a new general thread.

What do you peeps think is going to happen to the great non drawing info in this thread?

It cant be left because this will be for decoding the drawing only so it will have go be cleaned. Who decides whats good info or not, why delte stuff that will have to be reposted in a new thread.

Non of it makes sence.

I spent some time investigating the green light deadman found.

 

I put a sticky bomb on eveything i thought it could be a reflection from then went back to the spot you can see it each time to detonate one by one to see if it disrupted or showed in the reflection.

Those that were still in triggering range didnt show up in the reflection.

 

I then scoured the area by foot, by heli, by scuba gear and by sub.

The are a lot of green bits floating around in the water.

There is a lot of green on a lot of the rocks around the seabed.

There is a green tint reflected on the sub in some areas but its not as defined as when your in the alamo sea.

 

I got too tired and gave up but tomorrow i aim to finish my research off by sailing a boat into the spot and seeing if i can get the light to show on the boat once im back up on the hill.

 

Ive not really come to any conclusions on it yet though.

[StangOne50]

There is no option to keep the thread open . If i simply vote nay it will not allow me and I get an error message .

@Deadman [redacted]

There was talk of stuck clocks pages back. I noticed the only ones ( I could find )that actually move ( u may already know) are the Paleto Bay egg clocks. Though the time isn't correct & they move in unison.

Edited February 2, 2014 by timesteal

[cocogen2003]

@timesteal i also took a great deal of interest in the clocks. especially the ones that arent a texture and {edit}[still don't work, and the ones that do](ex. Fort clocks, and if memory serves i believe Safehouse ones. i havent seen that one you mentioned but will definately have a look when i get back home

in exact words if i can remember (pot) me: ive found the three ufos ,the ghost, the roman hatch, bigfoot, alien in ice , epsilon, trevs atv, and all that good stuff, am i done with story mode. guy on phone: there is so much mo9re than just the ufos....i cut him off add kicked in my bad.......me: i mean do i go to the prison or fort z since its not used in game? guy on phone: we cannot give gameplay tips here go to this site type of stuff.......

 

 

dont know if this proves that im wrong about mural bieng solved or what but all i know is im not playing online much today damn rockstar.

[Scoobysrt]

So we've gone from a hidden cave, mirrored maps, green lights etc to mass spamming game developers twitter accounts and now hacking said twitter accounts?

Why, because you cant get your own way?

 

I dont want any part in tbe whole twitter thing nor do i think its appropriate discussion for this thread.

[SolveTheMyths]

Yeah, i think this went so far.

 

I Mean, Hacking twitter accounts? Really? For what?

What are we searching?

Why are we searching outside the game?

 

I Remember the firsts days of the search, i was sure that tomorrow someone would find the Jetpack/Flyable UFO/Secret Weapon

I Think contacting R* Support, Asking the developers, or something that is not in the game is the ''Easy way'' and im pretty sure that they will not reply us.

So, Keep searching!
