  1. Well ive been runnin around and trying do my best to get things in order, anybody else interested in trying at all? Like tom said, report re-post/redundent posts, and report threads on the same thing so they can get merged. The more people actively trying to clean things up a bit the less work mods will have to do. As it stands i couldnt expect even 3 or 4 mods to keep this board in order, so looks like we are going to have to help. Order and organization are good things considering the archivial nature of a public forum. Also make sure to point newbs to the t&c so they can help once they get there bearings.
  2. Care to elaborate how a core mechanic of the entire map as a clock differentiates from the novels? Copyright infringment is a sticky area but seeing how cases go i doubt treyarch would risk it. Im talking about the core mechanic of the map and not the story. The theory proposed suggests that the story is tied to a map that is a metaphorical clock. Again, i would really think this borders on copyright infringment.
  3. You are mistaken. Rictofens ee requires 2 people, maxis requires 4.
  4. It would be plausible but very blatent ripoff of the hunger games final arena. Not sure how copyright infringments go but a game like this probably wouldnt risk it. Just sayin.
  5. Have you played tranzit? Its pretty obvious the bus route is counter clockwise. You should read the whole thread, never post bomb because you dont have time. The hands of a clock sounds like youve read mocking jay, the last book of the hunger games. You may be on to somthing with the clocks, try some things out and let us know.
  6. Read the guide. The nav card table and the jet can can be built in solo to get the ee to save. You must complete the jet gun and if you also complete the navcard table then you just need to kill the zombies under the tower until that step. Afterwards for extremely obvious reasons maxis requires 4 players and rictofen 2.
  7. The beams of light are shot off the tower after richtofens ee is complete. Concerning when they occur, i havnt the slightest clue
  8. Exactly the tower lights up if any player has it completed.
  9. We cant say for certain, but its starting to appear this was a ruse. None the less keep searching with the tf and mms and see if you find anything. However jimmyz has posted about steps, i think were missing somthing considering the maxis quotes. Im going to build the everything i can with the power off, see what i can get out of maxis.
  10. Hey you guys found it! Was waiting for sombody to post up pics. I mentioned that in another thread. There seems to be a 4 way splitter from the source transmission line going into the power box in that first pic. Normally you wouldnt split a transsmission line 4 ways but i doubt treyarch is considering electrical engineering in game development. Could this have somthing to do with the hanging wires scattered about the map? I like the beam theories and it ties into the factor of 4 but the dangling wires could be tangible as well. If the laundromat door is one trigger for beam activation could more be scattered across the map? Ill get this ee done this weekend i hope and then maybe i can do some testing of my own. Power is a central them to tranzit with emps and both ee and the avogardo, all dealing with electrical energy specifically. Jimmys tweet about the order of things, got me thinking about what tasks he reffering to. He ends it with now. Has anybody step by step followed exactly what the voices say (richtofen and maxis)? As in maxis speaks about building the turbine, but we always hear him next concerning turning the power on. He is silent when you build the turret and the zombie shield. I think the NOW was tying maxis instructions as the tasks we must perform, as he almost shouts that entire line.
  11. I think he means the battery for the pap is the same battery as the trap.
  12. Occams razor is one of the greatest achievments in efficiency and modern thinking. I love hearing people throwing him credit from time to time. Fact is, nothing has lead anywere yet. If jimmyz wants to be cryptic and anonymous then we have to chase every lead. He knows about the trolls, and if we dont figure this out soon enough we'll hear from his twitter account.
  13. 10-4 on the edit afro, ill start using that feature to do what i can to merge some threads together.
  14. Seriouy dg-4, your way too worked up about this. Rights dont exist on a forum. Admins need to keep the large portion of the dedicated user base happy. All these newb posters are going to dissapear and never come back until the next ee is complete. It doesnt matter what you think is fair, its gotta work well for mods, users and newbs. Ive been on forums since 2004. Ive been a dedicated member to quite a few forums. Your looking at the analogy all wrong as well. My point is users need to follow the t&c. Its all thats asked of you to be a member. If people just skip over the time spent making stickies to lay out the rules so everybody stays happy, then people arnt going to be happy. And i would be willig to bet admins and mods have a priority to keep vets around, because all these newbs will be gone. I joined this site right before black ops 2 launched and it was a ghost town. Guess who was posting? The vets. Yea, im new here as well. I thought i would share what ive found that works on other forums to maybe help the mods out a little bit. They spend a huge chunk of time on this site. Trying to move and orginize everthing is a daunting task. Like i said, its a suggestion. I posted it here to grab attention in hopes that if it was a well recieved idea it could be implemented. A newb board could be created so good information isnt lost and the spam is kept in a place that is full of it. Why dont you offer suggestions instead of being critical. Im not complaining, im offering suggestions for improvement. If you think the whole idea is bad, post that and leave it at the idea. Ad hominum attacks are taken by me with no weight. If you think you have a suggestion that improves the idea please add it. Be a solutionist and not more spam, being critical and trying to insult me is very silly. If you guys want to turn this into a flame war then it shows the value of what you have to say. This idea was pulled from a forum 8-10x the size of this one and deals with news topics. And guess what. It works. Say whatever you want, the fact is theres so many t&c violations by newly registered users that no mod can handle it. Im trying to offer a solution. Im not saying new users ideas are less important than anybodys. A simple limit of 20-40 posts is very simple. You agree to a t&c but im saying that a large majority of users simply ignore them. Think of it as an initiation rite, to keep the forums streamlined and clean. As stated before a small new user forum could be implemented. It probably could be temporary. Once the ee is finished and most people are done with blops2 till the dlc, traffic will die down. But like stated, theres 5 topics on the same thing posted twice everyday. The t&c are not being followed by new users.
  15. The sun emmits a full spectrum of light. Ultra violet is one spectrum. It emits all sorts of radiation. Altough nothing can be ruled out at this point. ::edit:: its all electromagnetic radiation, the millimeter scanner might also be useful, altough the maps been scowered with it.
  16. Then create a newb forum so they can spam there. That way nobody feels alienated. As for topics getting bumped, im sorry but that sounds just like capitalism, whatever gets attention stays. Its how you end up having to search for hours to find what your looking for. If you search and find 35 threads on the same thing, which one do you post in? Vets are dicks because this keeps happening every time somthing new happens. After putting up no tresspassing signs and asking nicely your going to get frustrated. Im not surprised vets are annoyed, im new here and im already frustrated. As for spam, im trying to offer a solution, not "Omg guys nav card accepted?"
  17. Ive posted in suggestions my idea but would like to gain some support if it is justified. Both general and tranzit forums for black ops 2 have been taken over by what i can only describe as impulse posting. 70% of the threads on page one are new members ignoring t&c to post one sentence topics when another 4 or 5 page topic exists on the same subject. The legit topics are getting washed away by the tsunami of garbage. I propose a temporary topic creation cap that forces new members to have a minimum amount of posts before making a new topic. Say 40-50. It would help get things in order, as im sure some of you are getting sick of telling people to use the search feature and posting in the appropriate forums. Ive seen it used on another forum, it reduces the crap and lets people get familiar with navigating the site. Maybe im just a dick, and i know its in the wrong forum, but nobody is paying any attention to anything but the next step. But im postin this because we cannot focus on the legit posts and could very well completly miss a great idea once it dissapears under newb posts.
  18. Ive submitted a suggestion to the admins in the suggestions forums to create a post minimum to create topics. People are registering, ignoring the t&c and cluttering tranzit and general to hell. About 70% of the topics on page one are reposts or wrong sections. Please make a suggestion if you feel this may help clean the board Up.
  19. They look like they were emp'ed. Because nuclear warheads generate an emp pulse, its likely the nukes hit a few minutes prior. However, maxis says somthing about searching for decades, leaving us to guess tranzit happens a while after moon/nuketown. Whatever the reason, we might not have a good enough lead just yet.
  20. I mean the first thing you do can be alot of things, first thing most people do is build a turbine. Or kill zombies. Maybe you need to wait and not kill any zombies, finish the maxis ee and then when you start the rictofen ee you begin killing zombies on his order? Its way to vast to be specific, maybe dont build a turbine and do rictofens ee first? I think the main task that is the focus of getting the power turned on to get jugg, but its too vast to try everything. Guess were stuck until we get another tweet.
  21. It was a fluke that megatron figured that out. He even said he was surprised his knowledge of it would apply to the file. We could have spend days on just that alone. If its really a troll, its the best one ever. Theres no harm in pursueing this, its been the best lead thus far. If we are gettin trolled then some time wasted is not a big deal, when the other theories have basically came up with nothing so far. Im watching the thread and jimmyz's twitter. Unfortunatly im at work so no testing for me. As for pe2hr, past exploration to help rictofen? Play everything/egg to help rictofen? Its gotta mean somthing, theres nothing more at the diner.
  22. This is going to start fizzleing out quickly here. P E 2 H R You could put help rictofen at the end, so p and e need completion. I guess its pointless until we can confirm if it jimmy or a troll, either way its difficult to let go of as its very well put together. I need to get some work done already.
  23. Ok hes definatly telling us were missing somthing. At least hes using twitter. I dont think this a troll, somebody1. So why do we heat the tower with the jetgun? Why does it need to be hot?
