Hey guys, uhh I dont think anyone has noticed this yet until me... ez.

Im pretty sure on the slusho site on the store page the hands in the back are saying something in SIGN LANGUAGE.

I dont know how to sign, so if anyone could either prove me right, or wrong it would be appreciated.

-stefan
they look like concert gestures... the only thing I see that could mean anything is "I love you" lol


i see the 'i love you' too but before it, the guy is holding up the letter "I" with his pinkie (right?)

I think it's a step-by-step phrase: every two or three sets of hands forms a word or phrase in ASL or JSL. It's been so long since I've signed, and there's no indication of motion in the hands, but I think there's something.

How about the #'s held up by the fingers?


From left to right, 25 13 23 25 43 32 23 24

Notice that these are approximations, it's actually quite tough ot tell since sometimes they hold up fists or hands at angles which make it difficult to decide if they should be included


I think they're grouped together maybe, each group signifies a # to a letter in the alphabet?

I have to post these two corrections to previous posts:

1. The first time I went to the Happy Talk page, the whale said "Am I a whale?"; so, either your numbers are wrong, or the pattern is actually randomly generated.

2. In Japanese you do NOT "write backwards"; the sentences structure may "seem" backward to an English speaker, though. There are actually two ways to write in Japanese:
a) In vertical lines, from top to bottom and from right to left, such as in ancient scrolls and in modern newspapers.

b) Exactly like you write in English or Spanish, in horizontal lines from left to right and top to bottom; this way of writing is used in technical documents (like videogames booklets or electronics equipment manuals) and in WEBSITES, such as Slusho.jp

So, NO, in Japanese you do NOT write from right to left (like Arabic) when you write in horizontal lines.


You're right - I did screw up my numbers; the pattern is right, but it's not 14 phrases - it's only 13 (misread my own freakin' notes). And, with that correction, there are 13 cycles before the whole thing resets, which means that each character gets to say each phrase - once - and then the pattern starts over.

BUT, it is in a specific pattern, so you can still predict what character and phrase is coming next, from any given point. I numbered the phrases this way (might as well have a standard ref.) - i'll use keywords -

1. slusho is people
2. tshirt xxl
3. hokkaido
4. love slusho, greatest ever
5. yummy
6. am i a whale
7. help, i had 7
8. thank noriko
9. tastebuds ring
10. HAPPY RIGHT NOW
11. wish i had more, be even happier
12. are you one..?
13. ganu's dream

And, the order of the characters is:

Duck, Octopus, Whale, Monkey, pig, clam, bear, girl, boy, donkey.

So, make Duck #1 and donkey #10 (and, then, duck becomes #11, octopus #12, whale 13, monkey 14, pig 1, clam 2, bear 3, etc. etc. - there will be 13 columns of numbers if you list it all out, before it's back to duck says #1).

Thanks for pointing that out; sorry for the screw-up.

Im testing somthing

Ok we already have some proof that the HT is our mail. BUT
If we see a message that says
"Slusho is joyous happy fun time!
FULL FULL FULL MOON"

the capital text comes from my tsukuyomi:moonphase obsession
forgive me there. But if that comes up in the comming weeks/months Then we have undeniable proof that YEPPERS the HT is our emails

More to the "Flavors" page...

If you add less than five robots, there's a distinctive "thunk" when each one goes in to the cup.

When you add all six, there's an EXTRA "thunk" added at the end, where you don't see what's being added, but something definitely goes in.

THAT is the "secret ingredient", and it only goes in when all six robots are selected.

I think it's curious that all the other flavors are in English (albeit strange) names, while Mikan (citrus) and Nashi (pear) are not. Also the only two that don't have two words to their name, and they're both centered.

Could that have anything to do with it?

Never mind. Must have been a visual bug, 'cause now I can't reproduce.

And, yes, the lotus is the "secret ingredient". I know this because of my unorthodox methods: in the Flash decompile, the function call to add the lotus is named "addSecretIngredient".

*EDIT*: Before you ask, I consider Flash decompilation only exploratory, and had I found something in it I would not have revealed it simply because of what's in the code. I would have then figured out the right way to get to it; if I can't find a way, the secret stays with me.

For example, and I hate to bring it up less I confuse them, but in The Lost Experience, the Hanso page that has the video when you click "humanity"... if you decompile the page you can hear and see the video instantly, but you still had to figure out how to trigger it, which wasn't as evident and was actually hidden reasonably well.

Wait, where did you get the Flash decompile for flavors? i don't remember anyone posting anything like that. Like how can we get it? EDIT: lol...sorry didn't get that part

Saw Transformers today. Saw the trailer on the big screen. Something struck me as odd. if you go to the Slusho page and go to the last part(the make your own flavor thing) the flavors look like transformers. Another thing: the girl that made Slusho was never seen again after going out to sea. Maybe she's the monster. It said she was like a whale, and the comments said "Slusho is people" kinda creepy if you ask me. Parasites need a host. Slusho could be a way to get the 'Parasite' into someone. Sorry if i'm rambling but i need to catch up. promise i'll try to:)

Government deep sea experiment with mutated people. Probably belongs in the plot theories though
