Update?

All of the chalk letters:

Hm. Curious as to the 3 different A symbols and two different O symbols? I didn't get anything when you run it through an anagram solver, but it can make the word "forum". Cant see a link to the hieroglyphs either except they're the same grid size.

that valve wiki link says this about killing floor changes:

One bio is: 41 6c 69 65 6e 20 38 20 49 74 2e 20 32 37 34 20 2d 34 36 32 39 20 31 37 - This translates to "Alien 8 It. 2074 -4629 17". Alien 8 is a game, It. might be an abbreviation, 2074 -4629 17 is probably coordinates in a 3D plane and could refer to a location in a particular Killing Floor level. Someone needs to search this coordinate in the map editor. EDIT: Apparently -4629 is too big to be a Killing Floor map, suggest checking other games.

I haven't downloaded the ball update yet, nothing has been found in it yet though. For some reason that game is just boring, plus the visuals seems.. fuzzy.

This stuff on http://valvearg.info/wiki/Valve_PotatoFo...rk_Descent is really interesting. Especially the links everywhere, and the sites stuff has been found on. Raven with Gman and a raven in portal 1 ending?

Has anyone tried opening up the original images in Photoshop and looking for extra channels, hidden stuff etc?
For some reason even with the nvidia dds plugin I cant open dds files. I feel like i'm hurping the derp.

A, Ä and Å
O and Ö
Just from the Scandinavian alphabet.

What will that perfect sphere bring it will be the end of everything the tattered yellow king shall dethrone the pipers will for us to dance death shall move across the floor they will (illegible) (illegible) (illegible) the skinless one is waking climb the highest tower spin the wheels crank the engine it will be again, its coming from beyond, comes through the gates suffer the trial stay alive liar! alias does too use dust as a sore muse

Went to the chalk writings and transcribed what I could find, and I believe the illegible ones read:

we must hurry it's not too late
what will that perfect sphere bring
it will be the end of everything
the tattered yellow king shall dethrone
the pipers will call for us to dance
death shall move across the floor
they who burrow waits beneath
the skinless one is waking
climb the highest tower
spin the wheels crank the engine
it will be again, its coming
from beyond it comes
through the gates
suffer the trial
stay alive
Liar! Alias does too use dust as a sore muse

Whoever re-mirrored the chalk writings compressed the resolution and made it illegible. Just use this one: http://i.imgur.com/nTjIL.png

Those arent 3 A symbols or 2 O symbols, those are A, Ä, Å and O, Ö
So it may be anagram like a "rycka fä öl Umeå bio" or even "räcka fly öbo Umeå i". Similars are "läcka furie ö om Åby", "olycka för bä Umeå i", "olycka bör fä Umeå i", "lycka öbor fä Umeå i"

So, what do you think? Is it "lycka öbor fä Umeå i" or something else?

No idea! There is some amazing info over at the wiki though (http://valvearg.info/wiki/Valve_ARG_Wiki)

edit: If you quote that strange message by HELP, you notice they've used colour tags quite a bit. What could it mean? It's a little confusing to look at. Some people on the wiki are looking at the consonants in the strange phrases and notice they all have 16 of them.

AHA! When you take ONLY the letters in color tags you get this message!

"they haVe caught on to me And will try to silence me will try to escApe knnHldp"

i've seen that code at the end before. Looking at the wiki.

Well played mr HELP!

oh wait someone figured this out way earilier, hells horses I'm a derp.
