Exactly. That's where my hesitation with these mistakes lie.

We may need to figure out what comes after the forward slash on this website: http://www.projectprometheus.com/

I started trying to pull out things that might be keywords to find what could go after the /, and I found something interesting:

http://www.projectprometheus.com/3.5 USED to be something. I got a 410 Gone error code. I attached the screen cap as well.

Nope, the ZN has been fixed into Zn now. They're obviously watching us closely.

not to nitpick per se but if that's the case, then on the timeline page it's 'acquires', not aquires.

spectagraph: could be a made up word for the weyland product based similarly on a real one? if not, it's 'spectrograph', as in the family of spectrometers using various wavelengths of light for various purposes, like identifying materials based on spectrum properties and also to map objects in 3d space.

...so when I said "Apologies in advance if this has been mentioned already, but I cant find the page in this thread that relates to Eridu"

that didnt apply to you obviously. thanks

Probably something updated recently, I bet in a few minutes, they'll match again.

This is interesting...

Ti-Titanium and Rh-Rhodium both have number 45
Ax-Adamantine and Pc-Graphite both have number 147

How bizarre. Well, once the fixes are done any mistake is probably deliberate... unless it gets mentioned here and fixed that is.

I gave them a once over. The date of the stock exchange data is different.

On the site it's 03/20/2073 9:00 AM PST

The jpeg says 03/21/2072 4:00 PM ET

Might be something, might be a typo.

Maybe the errors are clues; e.g. the previously mentioned Ho (vs H2O) and ZN (vs Zn). On the graph, Antimoney (Sb) is spelled incorrectly, but correctly under the box to the left. Perhaps the letter designations of the "wrong" substances will spell a word?

I think we should ignore these errors. They keep fixing them. This makes me a little wary. I think I'm just gonna cool my jets for a while so I don't keep chasing mistakes.

So apparently these "new" substances are minerals that have been discovered on Earth sometime b/w now and 2073. Def. of a mineral: To be classified as a true mineral, a substance must be a solid and have a crystalline structure. It must also be a naturally occurring, homogeneous substance with a defined chemical composition.

It looks more like they want to assign a certain key with a particular meaning to each of them. I mean, Water = Ho? Doesn't make much sense. I figured Water= Ho as Water = H20. Just missing one of them hydrogen thingies... Actually, straight HO is hydrogen peroxide (empirical). And there's actually an element with the abbreviation Ho: Name: Holmium Symbol: Ho Atomic Number: 67

while the abbreviations certainly don't match with the periodic table (eg. c for coal, not carbon), there could be a reason to their naming convention.
