For anyone who hasn't heard yet, Valve hid some symbols and letters/numbers in a couple of the background artworks for this sale's trading cards. There's a subreddit for trying to piece together clues:

Valve is screwing with us.
Remember,When you see an ARG,You start to solve it.
VintageSentry 14 Jan, 2013 @ 9:17am 
Forget about it,there is not even a piece of info.
VintageSentry 14 Jan, 2013 @ 9:16am 
I have a plan.
Check the source code of http://www.black-aperture.com/
Maybe there's a hint?

I think I found something interesting to note. However posting it on the IRC seemed fruitless as no one is currently awake. So I am going to put in a comment what I posted there. Maybe someone can look into it...

<Canyew>: I found something interesting I think someone could check into. The HL3 timeline that was posted by kotaku ( http://kotaku.com/5952823/kotaku-timeline-half+life-2-episode-three ) a little bit a go mentioned a website going up around Dec 22 1 Am. called http://www.black-aperture.com/ ... Well when the website FIRST went up, it featured a HL3 logo... >
<Canyew>: Now when you look at the page, it shows a weird picture, and says status - /// on the picture itself shows .../3 I think there could be a possiblity there is more to this picture then face value if anyone could check it out. My theory is that it is probably going to be the HL3 ARG website. Or vavle is just screwing with us.

I'm surprised there hasn't been any mention of the Black Mesa Pizza ARG.

Please update with news on the TF2 stuff
1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144 13 Jun, 2012 @ 9:18am 
Well my guess so far is that it's more focused on TF2 this time either something to do with the Pyro or robots. With another update rumored to come out this Thursday (in which last one had added the undocumented "tobor_a" file with the value of 14 possibly meaning June 14 (http://redd.it/uwqj5)) . The end of the potato sale which is also this Thursday help to support this rumor.
My games haven't updated like ours though...
Gert 13 Jun, 2012 @ 8:43am 
Has anybody checked them out yet?
Jake R 13 Jun, 2012 @ 8:28am 
Not just RUSH and The Ball, Killing Floor too. I'm also curious about the TF2 and DOTA2 updates.
Muskie 13 Jun, 2012 @ 6:59am

@Anthropoid: Very good. Leveraged is credit to Konzor... I mean team.
Anthropoid 21 Feb, 2012 @ 10:27am 
@Wildcatnate: Ah. Valvearg.com (which I believe was founded by our own Leveraged) reads "New wiki will be launched as soon as a new ARG starts!"
Wildcatnate 21 Feb, 2012 @ 7:22am 
I mean for the Valve arg.
Anthropoid 20 Feb, 2012 @ 10:26am 
@Wildcatnate: If you mean Frictional's ARG, it's over now. There's a wiki here:

Wildcatnate 20 Feb, 2012 @ 7:36am 
Do we have a wiki up for the arg yet?
Anthropoid 18 Feb, 2012 @ 12:31pm 
For anyone wanting to jump into Frictional's ARG, here's a concise summary of events so far via Reddit:

I guess that means I should stop checking Konzortium.
Box 18 Jan, 2012 @ 10:35am 
@leveraged oh? well than I guess I will have to continue following your groups to find out when / if the ARG will be. If you need any help let me know. My name is Mr.Freeman for a reason haha I love valve games!
Terrox 18 Jan, 2012 @ 3:30am 
does this mean i can leave the potato arg group now? :P
Nightgrieve 18 Jan, 2012 @ 12:44am 
This looks fun, always enjoy ARGs but I never seem to come across em in time to be useful during them.
Kamun 18 Jan, 2012 @ 12:08am 
Hey, here's hoping you make me an officer? :3
