The Ominous Foreboding Scribble Thread

New fragmented Scribbles were added into the game ..... it's ominous! (yes its really ominous!!)
Lets gather them and perhaps we can combine them into readable sentences!

Words are seperated by 3 spaces and placed within Code tags in order to clearly seperate them for reading.
Each _ is a single letter currently unknowen due to the Scribble being fragmented.

Scribble No. 1 + No. 5

Code:

The  _api_ol  is  rolled  in  darkne_ s.

This i all i got for now and i will update the thread if i found new ones or if any are posted.
Lets work together to uncover the omnious secret the devs tryied to hide in DoD!

 

Not to spoil anything, but all of the text is in the executable. It's just encrypted in the Rot13 algorithm.

THE DEER SPEAKS. YOU STILL DARE NOT LISTEN.

Never trust a man with [REDACTED]. Who knows what it conceals?

 

But thats not funny at all .)

 

oh hey someone else who's been bored enough to do it manually. It's like a crossword puzzle!

your #1 and #5 helped me figure out one of mine, where I got two iterations of it:

__ ______d _he _rea_u_es f__ st__y _ac_ _t _he C___t___ _ut s_meth_ng t__rib_e ha_p__e_ on t_e _u_p__ _e___l_n _o__._.

__ pick_ed _he cre_____s _o_ __ud_ ____ __ _h_ ____t___ __t _omethi__ te__ible _a_pen__ on _he _____y ze__elin _____..

Solved it to:

We pickled the creatures for study back at the Capitol. But something terrible happened on the supply zeppelin home...

 

Here are a couple of mine I found on DL1.

To br--- --der t- th- p-o-ince, glo-- -- -he Empi-e- -nd -o---- -o H-r --j-sty. Th-t -s t-e ---e---r---s -----

and I believe that I have figured this one out completely because I found 2 copies on DL1. I will give both incompletes and then show what I believe it is.

---ar- the i-- o-e- -h-t -s --e Carrion B-zzard.

B-w--e t-- --l -m-- -h-t -- t-- ---ri-n --zz-rd.

Beware the ill omen that is the Carrion Buzzard.

 

Adding mine to your first one gives:

To br--- --der t- th- p-o-ince, glo-- -- -he Empi-e- -nd -o---- -o H-r --j-sty. Th-t -s t-e ---e---r---s -----
To br__g _r_er t_ ___ _________ ___ry __ Th_ Em_ire, a__ _on___ __ _e_ M___st_. _h_t is th_ __rea_cr_t'_ ___l_


_o __in_ Or_e_ to t__ _rovi_c__ g__ry t_ _h_ _mp____ _n_ hono_r to H_r __j_s__. _h__ is ___ ____au__a___ _o__.


WHICH ENDS UP AS:

To bring order to the province, glory to The Empire, and honour to Her Majesty. That is the bureaucrat's goal. Can't believe I didn't get the honor/honour thing, given that I'm canadian.
*EDITED*

NEXT ONE:

To the east: the sea. To the north: trees and swamp. To the south: forested bog.

 

I found one that just said "k§s"

 

Here is a new one found on DL2 in Dwarven with no permadeath with Windows XP on steam.

Scribble No. 4

Code:

M_ _  t_e  H_ly  Cog  have  merc_
on  _ _e  _ _ _ _  _f  _ _  so_l

The one I found :

Code:

_ay  _h_  __ly   ___   __v_   m___y
on   _h_    ge__   of   _y   soul_

So I guess it's :
May the Holy Cog have mercy on the gear of my soul.

Scribble No. 3 + No. 6

Code:

Th_  _o_die_s  were  ge_ tl_  pickl _ _
for  _asy  _ ransp _ _ _  to  _h_  colony.
_  still  _eel  the  vinegar  in  my  ear  _ an_l

The one I found :

Code:

_he  _ol_ier_  ____  ______  _ickle_
_o_  ea_y  __an_por_  __  __e  ___o__.
I  st__l  __e_  __e  vi_e_ar  _n  m_  ea_  c__al.

So my guess :
The soldiers were gently pickled for easy trasport to the colony.
I still feel the vinegar in my ear canal.


Scribble No. 7

Code:

F_ _ _  out_ _ _ _  _f  _ _me  _ _ _  s_a_ _ _
_ _ _y  _ _a_ _e  us_

The one I found :

Code:

__o_  out___e  _f  _im_  and  s__ce,
_h_y  _l___e  _s.

Which could give us :
From outside of time and space, they _la__e us.

 

Here's what I have by cross checking with yours :

1. Beware the ill omen that is the carrion buzzard.

2. The soldiers were gently pickled for easy
transport to the colony. I still feel the vinegar in my ear canal.

3. We all believed that anything that glowed so prettily must be
harmless...

4.The Capitol is rolled in darkness The Panopticon is lost.

 

That's probably:
From outside of time and space, they plague us.

 

One I just found:

Code:

__ve_ t_u_t _ m_n wi__ a_ __ers___d h_t.
 
___ k___s ____ i_ ___ce_l__.

The beginning is probably "Never trust a man with an oversized hat." but the rest I don't know.

My best guess would be "The Heliograph tower collapsed all communications locally" but that would require an extra space....

 

Code:

_s. W_____aw _c_ed a_
_u__r___or o_ __e
_o_k_ho_ d_e __ her
Sta_io_ _b_ve t_e c____n
_a_ou_e_s_

Code:

_or t__ __p_re_

Most likely "for the empire!"

 

Here are those I found with the meaning I think they bear... All of these were found on GRPD DL1

Code:

_  ___wn   m_  ___row_  _n_  _e_ch  fo_  t__
il_umin_t__g  lig__  __  t__  Gre_n  ___ry_

I drown my sorrows and reach for the illuminating light of the Green Fairy.

Code:

__wa_e  t_e  i_l  ____  th_t  i_  the  __rrion  _u___r__

Beware the ill omen that is the carrion buzzard.
This one has already been found but 1 more scribble for confirmation.

Code:

May  __e  _oly  C__  __ve  m____  on

May the Holy Cog have mercy on the gear of my soul.
This one has already been found but 1 more scribble for confirmation.

 

Found these that so far doesn't seem to match any of the already found ones

~Don't have the slightest clue what this one might translate to... but it reminded me of Wind of Change... Kudos Gaslamp!

 

I found more letter for this one:

Code:

A h__lt_ f__r __ ce____o__d_ i_ __ __
e__o_____d __ __e_y yo___ na__ra_i_t_

leading to the answer: "A healthy fear of cephalopods is to be encouraged in every young naturalist."

Also found more letters to one I posted earlier which now looks like:

Code:

Lord Palme_stok_s e_itori_l __l_ m_
_hat this __s _mpossible_ _ m____ he said, __r_et_at_d by Sail_rs

which I've come to interpret as:"Lord Palmerstokes editorial told me that this was impossible, I might, he said, perpetuated by Sailors"

 

I'm too lazy to type it out :S
(thought it was funny these were right beside each other, though.


WHY WON'T YOU LISTEN TO THE TENDER(?) MERCIES(??) OF THE DEER.Tesla(?)!

... it doesn't make sense, but at least it's ominous!

Sorry... Maybe I'm mistaken, I haven't seen it again.
