I think that they are IG. To otherwise put up those sorts of scores and messages, someone would have to hack the game, and I'd like to think that no player would do that.

We definitely need to keep an eye on this!

Just wanted to point out that there was also a HONDA on the leaderboard in 3rd with 711 Days and 5 hours at 2016-2-22 13:32:10.675, that mysteriously disappeared like Jennifer,Randy,Yui, and Ninami. As well as the mysterious catastrophic external events with the dashes that fit the character names. Here is a link to a screenshot including the HONDA entry - http://imgur.com/IPwqZVy - - Also note how HONDA's should be ahead of Radiogirls score..

This.

I'm horrible (or just too impatient) at these games so I've just been lurking over the weekend. The Megan message seems to break format, which should be a pretty firm indicator that a player wouldn't have done it. The screenshot of a higher score than radiogirl's being lower on the scale should be confirmation that what's up there is "stickied", if you will.

We may want to start asking who The Velvet Devil is unless that spot is reserved for the actual leader. FWIW; I tried variations of Velvet Devil as passwords on FaPT for curiosity's sake, but nothing hit.

Lol the velvetdevil, magicjesus, and mendonca are all present in the 10Cloverfield Discord chat, we have all been collaborating over there and the goal was 730 days/2 years which Velvet Devil accomplished...But, important note, the updates on the leaderboard came before Velvet hit 2 years, so that was not what triggered the updates. I can promise that VelvetDevil, MagicJesus and Mendonca are not clues.

So, you've verified they're actually the monster by now, right? Shocked Wink

Hahaha nope VelvetDevil is a scholar and a gentlemen....and damn dedicated to the SurvivalSim...Him MagicJesus and Mendonca literally put in hours and hours of work on this. Our math showed that if you only got events that effected morale you could potentially hit 815 days, but 730 was the goal which was met, the first update came like 15 minutes before Velvet set the 738 record. Which was obviously overshadowed by the 1349 score lol.

Should we start archiving all of the Tips the game gives us? It might help everyone improve their survival times.

Fuel costs 1.65 Units per gallon. The shelter uses roughly 6 gallons per day.


Here is two more:

"Water cost 1.12 Units per gallon. Water is used at a rate of 5 gallons per person, per day."

"Fish Supplies cost 14.24 Units per box. One box will last 4.0 days." I figure 3.56 per day?

The only names on the leaderboard that we (in the discord chat) haven't spoken with are Radioman70, Radiogirl, and Teddy. Just for the record, if anyone over her can account for any of these that'd be great.

Sweet Clovie's feeders...........1349? Ain't nobody got time for that! Well, maybe they do but I sure don't. That's amazing! I've only played five times and I cannot break 200.

Yeah the 1349 record was the Randy,Jennifer,Yui,Ninami score that was removed, which is theorized to be a clue of some sort.

There's a distinct pattern in the way the game glitches when you stay on the window and the cursor is left to blink. The different lines twitch depending the screen, but there are red lines that shoot across the screen just before it seems to "reset". The instructions mention the bugs, but I can never tell if those kind've things are nods to what we're supposed to be looking at or not (like the satellites). Any reason to believe this isn't just added flavor?

EDIT: Added screen shot.

HONDA has been accounted for, it was someone skilled in Unity that was able to add in his own scores, he also added a message saying Proof-Proof-Proof, so it is very possible to hack the leaderboard.

Was he ever able to get on that first or third line?

So these are all really hacks? Ughhhhh.. Then we no longer know what to make of this, and all bets are off until Howard gives us some explicit indication of what's real or not.
