Hi

Long time listener, first time caller.


I noticed on the Dayvan cowboy upload that there is some added static in this new version that’s not in the original version.

There are some numbers and you can vaguely make it out in the screenshot below, across the white line.

The optimist in me sees 1 3 25, which might mean 1st march 2025.

It’s probably just meaningless random numbers though.

That’s… just compression artifacts.

It’s at around 5.28, it’s like a split second and quite hard to pause on but you can definitely see it

It's very difficult to pause on that frame. I've tried 8 times and got somewhat close only one time. What made you want to look there? Thats almost like finding a needle in a haystack. That said, I can't believe they would be THAT specific and subtle about giving us a clue.

I just noticed it flash up, on an iphone you can pause it and scroll frame by frame with your finger and that was the best I could manage.

It is noticeable though, there are a few frames with letters and numbers in the new upload which are definitely not in the original.

you can use , and . (< >) when you pause a youtube video to go frame by frame, just FYI!

Can you give some timestamps? I've done some A/B comparisons but I'm not seeing any differences in static

Spoiler: show

DON'T BUY THE BLACK ALBUM, I'M SORRY.

See you all on page 6010, much love

I mean, it's not like any of our actions change the release date of the album (if it ever releases).
Maybe the next album SUCKS and all of the waiting would be for naught...
What if they've moved on?

LP5 COMING OUT 2026/6/6
HALF LIFE 3 CONFIRMED

You can go frame-by-frame on Youtube using the comma (<) and period (>) keys.

And well, no shit, it looks like there might be something there, right after the yellow-whitish flaring around 5:27:

.

edit: ah, hadn't noticed northernlite mentioned the arrow keys already.

Hmm I read "backgrounds"

I feel like it's always been there, remember the invocation video on Trans Canada Highway copies are 360p x 480p at best, this was remastered and "enhanced".
There's just no way you would see it as clear as it is now, on a 360p copy.

Edit: Yeah see, clearly it was in the old video if you compare the same frames with differing quality.

Go home lads.

"( But why would they put invocation in the upload at all?

IMO it’s twofold:
1) both videos are from the same era and fit together well and it’s more efficient to combine them and post them as one on their YouTube and Instagram
2) this is just me wishful thinking, but I like how invocation is the action of invoking someone or something (LP5, right?)

Speaking of invocation, why is this assumed to have no real significance?




Given it may have significance, it could be implying that we have some kind of choice over the release of LP5.

Looks like this text, Must be from the editing software. Interesting how they left that on screen. Always thought it must have meant something.

I find it really interesting how we’re so starved of new material… we already might have another twoism.org folie à deux, within only 3 weeks of a refreshed release speculation thread. Hexagon sun, cheeky as always, but it’d be nice to hear from them properly!

yeah i was thinking that for quite a long time too. in my opinion sxt has a lot of things yet to be found (beyond the unknown tracks)

Too much time has passed. I don't think there is anything in SxT that has any bearing on LP5. I really don't think there is anything out there that could give us clues either. I would love a roll out similar to TH, but I think they're over the games. I suspect the release will come shortly after the announcement.

That said, aside from LP5, I hope we gain clarity on two things: the Hell Interface black profile and banner pics being replaced on curious dates, and the Pioneer Plaque.
