The following are themes and common terms that have appeared throughout the ARG.
Contents
Time travel
Since the original kickstarter video, time travel has appeared to be the overacrhing theme to the ARG.
Occurrences
- Kickstarter Video
- UC Berkley Event
- Ridermail in THD
- Time-travel.club
- Justin Bortnick's twitch steams on ??? and ???
Sparkles
The first reference to Sparkles was a link on trainhotdog.cool, which opened a magic eye style image. When 'decoded', it displayed the message; Danger: Sparkles! Following that, we have learned that sparkles are the cause of the Decay, and that the resistance is fighting against them.
Occurrences
Decay
Butts
Throughout the ARG, the word "butts" has been used to confirm involvement with the ARG or as a funny reward for effort
| Butts Reference | How it was found |
|---|---|
| http://twinbread.com/butts.html | On twinbread.com's home page the bottom says "This site is best viewed with Netscape Navigator 3.1 or Higher!", if clicked it takes to the link shown and simply says "butts" |
| http://twinbread.com/recipie36.html | This is a list of primes but several primes are missing, when the missing primes are used to draw a picture (missing white, others black, you get this image  that says Butts
|
| "XXbuttsbuttsb" | When entered into the brainfuck interpreter it outputs "```````````" |
| "BUTTSBUTTSB" | at the bottom of the brainfuck message there are some squares and arrows (view here), they translate to BUTTSBUTTSB |
| http://twinbread.com/kernal.html | This is a copy of the Kernal of Truth audio, the mp3 is tagged with butts as the title and NTSC in the description |
| Jim says "Butts" | When Jim approached the group at Berkeley, he said Butts |
| Pj5WaWdWaA== | Translates to base 64 ">>VigVh", fed through brainfuck "BUTTS" |
| Sticker on the frog statue | was on its butt, nothing really under it or anything |
| Train Hot Dog Episode 13 | Titled "Butt Folk" |
| "YnV0dHM= #Resistance" | By @Resist_Decay , the official twitter of the resistance, googling YnV0dHM= returns butts |
| RPP Episode 67 | The genre is Buttscast |
| Twitch stream | Justin went through the best butts of HotS, it's Stitches, if you're curious |
| Gustav Email | In Gustav Klimt's email, there was a message to itself "Note to self," the body read butts |
Cyborgs
The Resistance appears to be making people into Cyborgs in order to better fight the decay.
- The 'borg' chess piece images.
- The posters
- Zagmar's twitter incursion
- Train Hot Dog 64 - Mention of Abraham Lincoln becoming the first cyborg in 1901.
- In the first stage of the original Frog Fractions, you can become a cyborg frog. In the next stage, you are called Lt. Hops. The frog appears quite ambivalent about being a cyborg given the in game upgrade text.
Chess
For a period of time, there were a large number of references and clues pointing towards Chess. This appears the have culminated in the Musuem of Jurassic Technology Event, where a game of Chess was played for a Mario Amiibo. Since then, no new Chess related clues have appeared.
