Mr. Robot ARG/Season 4/Pre-Season

This page is a summary of the ARG events that took place before the Season 4 premiere.

Let It Snow

The stylized image that was received with the "let it snow" email

On May 23, 2019, users subscribed to the ARG mailing list received an email with the subject line let it snow. The email contained an stylized image of the fsociety mask displayed in a bloody pattern against a background of snow. At the same time, the official Mr. Robot Twitter acccount posted the same image.

The image linked to [1], a website that had served as the ARG's hub across all of the television show's seasons. A new link was found on this website, called pattern. Following this link led to a grid of letters.

By superimposing the image of the bloody fsociety mask over the letter grid, the spots of blood around the mask spelled out the following link:

CNB.SH

By inputting the six numbers that have four digits after the decimal point into the box, you get the following numbers:

99.0566 = 63 124.2139 = 79 110.0629 = 70 113.2075 = 72 117.9245 = 75 114.7799 = 73

If you convert "63 79 70 72 75 73" from hex to text, it will translate to "cyprus."

On August 27th, 2019, a trailer dropped and the numbers “7661746963“ were found on a magazine at the beginning of the video:

Convert “76 61 74 69 63” from hex to ascii and you get: “vatic.” Enter “vatic” into the search bar at cnh.sh and you get the image:

The Latin phrase in the image is: “gem bjz fnbwme mmng tam bmump cid xdcgutbh zavp qie tkejrwqpb th pkm whzm vnw iexofxndsaugitl.”

Using “vatic” as the keyword in a Vigenere decoder, the phrase translates to: “let the future tell the zruth and evaluatf each one according to hir work and accomplishments.” Which references the Tesla quote:
