This is a major stretch...but what if the hand talking and the typing hints refer to how the operator communicates since he didn't really have a mouth..I'm not directly implying that the operator is tta...but maybe tta talks for him through these vids

Hands talking could mean a whole bunch of things.

-I am mute because of slender sickness, which is why I won't answer you when you yell at me, hence the videos.

-YOU should talk with your hands instead of being silent right now.

-I have Alex gagged but I'm going to let him talk to you with his hands?

-I am TTA and nothing I say makes sense.

Had a friend on irc look at the code from twitter and the code from the video. It's possible that the solution to the first code is wrong because it's a rotated code. We need to focus more on the code than a stupid video.

Then do that. But at this point, I think it is best to ignore you until you prove everyone else wrong with a DIFFERENT solution. Yes, there may be an additional solution to the codes, but if Troy comes out and says that the typing video was NOT meant to be found and it was a complete coincidence, then I will give in and will start believing in God and the tooth fairy because that is how impossibly small of a chance that it has to have coincidentally led to that video.

There is probably more we are missing, but I am 100% sure they meant for us to find that video.

Either you hate us and are trolling, or you hate math and refuse to believe in its existence.

Either way. Let's agree to disagree and let us know if you find a way to solve it a different way.

(As for saying they would never use footage from other channels and videos. They do. All the time. This is just the first time TTA didn't edit it into his video.

The nature of the video is irrelevant except that it answers the riddle. It was obviously what we were meant to see. TTA does cryptic shit. The video is relevant insofar as it is about typing. We're likely not supposed to glean anything else from it.

Everyone stop being indignant, jesus christ.

inb4 twisted cries that it's not an official youtube channel video again.

Pestoner, no. Most people believe currently that that is alex tied up or otherwise subdued. I believe the frame they're talking about is that creepy looking smile that looks like a fat dude or a mask.

You know the guy who first mentioned the keyboard video first found this link:
mp3crow.mobi/vd/ZFo4MGJJVUVNeVE.html‎

The fact that the base64 conversion leads to the youtube vid isn't farfetched as the site appears to be a youtube download site and probably uses base64 conversion to name their pages based on the youtube page.

So that gets rid of that coincidence.

But doesn't change the fact that the video can be answer to the decoded riddle from the first tweet, but I think that these tweets must somehow relate to the code in Quadrant. I'm not sure that this riddle combination helps in that regard. I think the correct solution to the tweets should in turn help answer Quadrant's code.

Which if "How do hands talk" and "typing" are the answers how would that help answer the code in Quadrant?

I'm not sure if it meshes. Plus I don't really think typing is a good answer to the proposed riddle. I mean sign language comes first to my mind. Then in addition to that there's the phrase "talking with your hands" which refers to hand motions we do involuntarily when we talk.

At the same time it is hard to deny the coincidence is quite interesting, but like I said if it doesn't help decode quadrant's code then it probably is just a coincidence.

Nothing at all says that it helps or doesn't help us solve the code in quadrant. Some believe keyboards may help us solve the quadrant codes. Others believe that the twitter riddle was completely unrelated. And others still have done the math to show that it is practically impossible that the code accidentally led to a video at all, let alone one that answers the question.

Also, typing comes to mind first. That's what is most popular in this day and age.

It has happened before that the codes in the TTA videos related to the tweets.

Secondly, the coincidence isn't impossible but merely improbable. Just because it is unlikely, doesn't mean it can't happen.

Maybe that's what came to mind for you first. Sign Langauage personally came to mind for me first because that really is speaking with your hands, typing isn't SPEAKING, it's just communicating imo

Well if you take it literally "How do hands talk" The answer: They don't, because they don't have mouths.

Oh man, this. This so hard. Lol.

On topic, no one is really mentioning the fact that the code in Quadrant blinked 5 times. I mean, it has been mentioned, but no one is trying to apply that to the solution. It seems relevant to me.

I don't really have anything else to add except that I'm disappointed with the silly arguing I just read through. Trosephim tossed us (almost us superfan crackheads who enjoy a good code specifically) a fun puzzle to play with and keep us busy as we wait for the next vid, which probably won't show up until after the holidays if I had to guess, and a lot of you guys just bitch and fight and try to make it no fun at all. How about we work together and try to solve the puzzle instead of acting like fools? If you don't agree with one person's solution then disprove it, don't just discredit the person who put forth the solution. Several pages of nonsense and we're still no closer to solving the code in Quadrant, which is much more interesting to me than a shitty riddle, no matter how relevant the riddle and its solution may be.
