Building on this:
The triangles gave us the FOUR hellenisitic elements (Tetra/Tetris) - Earth (Green - your alliance), Fire (red - hostile alliance) Air (Yellow - You) Water (Blue - Friendly).
We can come together and contact Aether (space) and form a pentangle. The pentangle provides a Golden Ratio of man. The missing elements were used in alchemy (Gold). The alchemy is the ability to transform from one thing to another, have another life and to travel through space to another dimension/world.
Aether is a new satellite network, It uses both a satellite communications system and a proprietary wireless data network. so im guessing that this is so evony can be played on mobile phones, ipads etc.
The positioning of the elements on the pentagram suggests that Aether-1 will come from the USA as part of a completely new venture. Quite possibly it will be based in a new office in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area but still be under the Regan Mercantile umbrella. It quite possibly has the involvement of some big names such as Alexey Pajitnov and Henk Rogers/Blue Planet and/or software they have developed in collaboration.
But what will Aether-1 offer?
This is being sold as exciting to Evony, not as a new separate game. It has to either include Age I and Age II by slotting code into existing codes (clue #4) or be something completely new such as Age III.
Clue #5 suggests everything is connected but in the past we were unable to make contact. Just like the MIR station the parts can be joined briefly and then break off to return home. In the same way Lyra could live in one world and access another. The cut did not always end up where she expected so the access may provide access to places/worlds randomly and yet anyone else who accesses the same cut ends up in the same world as you.
The elements each pertain to a colour I would hazard the colours could be HCs -Yellow (Atlantis), Blue (16), Green (14) and Red (12) and by capping an HC you gain a token of some sort which when combined allow movement. It would certainly encourage the passing over of Atlantis holders and increase the risk. But this negates AGE I and as I don’t play Age I I don’t know a suitable substitute except red(hostile), blue (friendly), white (neutral), green (same alliance) and yellow (you). That seems too easy and not plausible. It could apply once the gate is open and allow anyone from either world to flow both ways for a limited time.
So Age III...The only problem I have with this is if its new there isn’t anywhere else to travel…yet and it will take a few months before the benefits are shown in game.
I can fit the Telescopium constellation on clue 2. kind of. Is this the constellation you say you can see Thalin?
Im starting to think aether-1 will be many things. Including new "bulletproof" and botproof, as well as a mod for both ages. Kind of like a "dark age" or something like that. I think I've went way too advanced when Ive tried to figure this out.. but Ill give a summary..
Clue #1:
-Alexey Pajitnov was also a person behind Bullet Proof Software.
-MIR: also means World. On the MIR station parts could be joined, then broken off and taken back home -Some kind of server crossing?
-Tetris ending: Launching
Clue #2:
-Leonardo Da Vinci: Focus on the stars (more to it than that, but..
-Constellation: Telescopium -I will upload a pic tomorrow
-Stars and "coordinates" (coordinates pointed out in the pic sent to you by a player): more like dot-to-dot. Also, 7 of the stars "on land" are brighter. 4 of these are at the locations you have on your 'About us' page on evony.net. You are also hiring more staff, which makes me think the next 3 stars are locations for new "offices" or something.
Clue #3:
-Numbers: Francia RGB
-Radio Transmission and year 1896: Radio was invented: New technology/Software
Clue #4:
-Mind over matter: Aether/Air over Earth(Earth=World. MIR=World. Evony World Covered by Aether(?)) -which points back to clue #1 and MIR.
-The code in the end of the message is from Tron: A "hacker proof Operative System" -Also points back to clue #1 with Alexey Pajitnovs Bullet Proof Software.
-Make contact with Aether-1: aether-1@evony.com -SOLVED!
Clue #5:
-Stargazer: Looking at the stars. Telescope -Pointing back to clue #2
-The symbol: Air/Aether
-The little island in the symbol: Svalbard, Norway -Excellent place to look at the stars and the northern light (and the Aether(?)) using a telescope!
Summary:
I think this is about a new software/technology and a new "age" of evony. Doesnt necessarily have to be a age3, but a "dark age" where new components are added (a mod). Or something along those lines.
The software will help against bots, as well as latency.
Thats pretty much what I can get out of this. Please give solid feedback to this Thalin
:)
Without a shadow of a doubt Blue Planet is involved. The second clue IS a Blue Planet.
Clue #4 shows the insertion of a new code into existing code which causes an error in a supposedly un-hackable system. So yes this software will most likely have a bulletproof aspect to it. Maybe the ability to detect and stop bots and therefore help in lag (I'm sure I saw somewhere the lag is attributed to bots). Either way it will be cutting edge and improve performance dramatically.
Using the cords of evony offices and those of Hawaii (Blue Planets home) the constellation Telescopium can be formed, the eyepiece being in Hawaii (Looked at the past for the future). Aether in the pentangle also points towards the USA, Hawaii being a part of the US.
Blue Planet is coming together with Evony to create a new future.
I don't think it stops at improved software though, I do still think that accessing other worlds is possible by having the prerequisite items.
Soooo why stop at blue Planet when there is a Blue Mars? Earth ---> Space

A form of access to a 3D world is on the cards? The coming together of Evony and BluePlanet/Mars software will provide a whole new experience and a new dimension to the game. Improved security and new features. The game as we know it and the ability to reach into a 3D world???
EDIT

Similar Earth Picture.
Blue Mars launched in Open Beta in October 2009 and began selling virtual land to third party developers in January 2010. Blue Mars Mobile, an iOS app based on the content and technology from the virtual world, was introduced in February 2011.
Thalin said he had been working on this for a year about a month ago - makes sense.
So so so ...can't see us playing SIMs. This is a separate world - WoW style. A game of Avatars.
To develop Evony like this and to have battles involving 100k plus troops all running around and dying, not to mention all the farming missions and the ability to see troops marching at HCs to cap would be uber impressive and unimaginable...the scale and confusion!!!! Cant see it working.
A battle like that would surely have to be confined to two players. A one on one is maybe an option, your character fighting another character.
It could be a form of battle report where you can see what happened in an action replay.
OR more likely
This is a world of avatars where your avatar can go do quests, solve puzzles, fight other avatars and reap rewards.
I think you are on to it there Kazza.
Avatars/heroes and the ability to fight arena type of fights. In-game jousts and fencing or something like that maybe. What I dont get is if this is an expansion to evony's already existing ages or if its a new age. It has to be something that involves the players from both ages. This whole new dimension/3D makes sense too. Most likely a new game, as I doubt they want to take the risk changing the old games to SIMS-like games. But hey, everything is possible.
This is so frustrating, I wish I knew the level of detail required
Quick Summary of facts or a complete detailed break down of each clue or EXACTLY what Aether-1 is.
Some guidelines would help
I think the clues might be simpler than we are making them. It certainly was for #4.
Clue #1 - Fire? End of Tetris was launching, End of MIR was burning up in atmosphere.
Clue #2 - Water? 3 sets of Coords (presumably) = 3 points = triangle. The leo connection might be related to the Last Supper and the chalice discovered in the Da Vinci Code, which is also a symbol for water. "Deep Blue Something" = "Deep Blue Sea"? Btw, thanks for getting "Breakfast at Tiffany's" stuck in my head Thalin... The bright stars seem to correspond to where evony employees work and may have been there for clue 4.
Clue #3 - 5 rings on olympic flag? These may symbolize the 5 elements we are looking for.
Clue #4 - Solved. We got 2 more elements, Air and Earth, but what does it mean to have your name raised higher than all? Is there going to be some type of leader board?
Clue #5 - I see the symbol for Aether or Spirt in the image as a faint circle, which completes all 5 elements if I am right about #1 and #2.
I've spent quite a bit of time chasing clues on this, but not near the time Krazy, ImInsane, and some others have. I hope you guys get them and hopefully something above helps.
#1: launching, world
#2: blue planet / blue mars (key: underwater, ssdy)
#3: first (worlds first radio)
#4: Virtual world (tron, mind over matter- Imagination over reality)
#5: 3D (Spirit/ Avatar, dimensions)
Blue Mars Launching worlds first virtual 3D world
or
Blue Mars Launching worlds first virtual world 3D
How close is that?
May 6th Evony are joining the virtual 3D world and will mix up the sims-style avatar game with medievil warfare?
What's your name on the Blue Mars developer forum Thalin? :p
Thx Chupa. I think its fair to say ImInsane and I officially live up to our names lol.
Ok we have only had earth and air confirmed as correct. On that basis, along with Clue #3 being a message from space to earth the product will be available as a the new version(air) and as we know it (earth). Im going to opt for this is Evony buying city space from Blue Mars Avatar Reality. It will be the launch of a flagship game in a virtual world.
Clue #5 is the one that makes me think that although this is a new world its accessible from the world as we know it. But at you have to sign up to Blue Mars. There could possibly be a link introduced to click to go directly there. But this in all other ways is separate from Age I and Age II, unless they have some means of transferring rewards.
This world will have avatars created by you (clue#4)
The world is full of cities and each city is owned by different gaming developers.
I would assume the Evony city has to retain the evony character of alliances, battles, training etc. I cant see that in this world you would build millions of archers and mechs lets say, that would be chaos to look at. So perhaps the focus is more on you being the hero.
But Evony will just be one city on this new planet
Damn u ImInsane lol
Well just sat here and watched Thalin log in and log back out and what does ImInsane send me? this...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a20h93qyG0U
I'm Gonna Kill Myself
LMFAO...the hysterics have just kicked in
Thalin DAMN U :rofl:
Right, i replied through facebook about my answers, guess aether-1 did not see them lol, here i come again...
Aether-1 is 'space resonance', 'energy' ??? The Aether continually resonates forward and backward in time. As a result, the Aether always remains in the present. The Aether also continually resonates right and left. The building blocks of our daily world (electrons and protons) see only the forward time and left spin portions of the Aether unit.
From the space-resonance perspective, our four dimensional space-time world looks “flat.” Like the Aether, the mind also has the experience of being in the present moment. Regardless what time it is or where we are, our mind is ever right here, right now, in the present.
Oh, just wanna add....if its present, does that mean the strategy + war game will be through our present world? like with countries..use real life in virtual world...
Clue 1 is MNP, turned it up-side-down is dNW, Domain Name Wire (website). Alternatively, a company named MNP, it produces metals and technologies..so answer could also be technology, machines, time machines.
Clue 2 is.. the stars that shine shows the workers that work for evony? the coords shows the players playing evony? an interaction between evony and players??
OR.. players will be able to fight against each other around the world.
Clue 3 is gospel? The widespread of evony game? word of mouth?? (in the da vinci code lol..puzzle..puzzle..puzzle..In November 1896 Saunière commissioned prestigious sculptor and painter Giscard of Toulouse (established in 1855) to decorate his church with new statues of the saints, Stations of the Cross, Baptismal font with statues of John baptising Jesus (bearing Ecce Agnus Dei), a bas-relief of Jesus giving the Sermon on the Mount above the Confessional, and a figure of a Devil supporting a Holy Water Stoup surmounted by Angels making the Sign of the Cross, bearing the inscriptions BS and Par Ce Signe Tu Le Vaincras ("By this sign you will conquer him").
OR..'The Gospel according to Mary Magdalene' which was found in Cairo in 1896)
OR.. The new coming game will allow players to play using communication..like talking through a phone..which is like world of warcraft (voice chat)..
Clue 4 solved, so no need to answer...
Clue 5 as clue 5 is coming from 'the Lettered Cottage', my guess is its from the Da Vinci Code, there are five elements mentioned in Da Vinci Code, fifth element? particle? Sun?? or moon as it mentioned the stargazer...or spaceship. Or could it mean all the suggestions and comments in somewhere? Cottage is like a place, so my guess is either the forum or the evony game itself. Its like the cottage is full of letters inside. Evony grew because of players suggestions? or evony is with full of stories??
OR..evony will announce the game....
OR.. the game will involve solving puzzles....
Also i just remember the movie ....Avatar..something relate to it?? Virtual world?? Or is it something to do with bot? The coming changes will stop bots completely. In solving present issue, 1st clue is to use internet or website, 2nd clue mean the evony workers will be able to locate the players? and the 4th clue raise awareness, evony workers will blacklist the names. then last 1 is track those names up and block them..
I know my answers are abit eh...not related to the new game (if it is)...and i wonder is na42 be aether-1 lol
I'm kinda repeating what I have said already but I feel we are so close and its down to a word.
Sorry its a monster post again to try show my reasoning...

There is an extra-special kind of magic, though, that occurs when just the right words are gathered together
Astronomical Facts -Satellite - company, server, game
Geological Facts - Aether (Evony), Fire & Water (Blue Lava), Air (Blue Mars), Earth (Blue Planet/Evony)

(AGE)III is a flagship satellite space age technology Avatar Game held and managed by the Blue Mars group of companies servers, designed and also managed by Evony. Accessible to earth based Evony Players available as a handheld app or static online(PC) game.
Everything about Blue Mars is wrong, sorry!
Thalin will you yay or nay on the iphone app rumors floating around. At least tell me there's more to it that just an app for iphones. Will be so disappointed if there's not a new age or major development in the game.
Dammit
Ok ... you looked at best and worst of Age I and II (earth) to make a space-age (i.e. new technology)Age III that includes communication and contact.
#1: launching, new world (of evony, new age (climate change))
#2: key: underwater (SSDY - Same Stuff, Different Year (year/age)
#3: Radio/france/1896. Electromagnetic Radiation. Or either one of those two words (all Im getting out of this one atm)
#4: mind over matter- Aether over Earth (Causing climate change)
#5: Keep thinking Stargate here. Which leads me to time travel. Which makes me think either a long long time ago - or the future.
May 6th Evony are launching a new age or a mod. This is either about the world under water or about almost all of the world being under water.
So the solution (this time) is: Either battles with regular ships all the way, subsea all the way, or with both regular ships and subsea.
Is this the kind of explanation you are looking for Thalin, or are you looking for specific words for each clue? and then a specific sentence for the entire puzzle?
Maybe not Under water but on water a naval aspect, crossing seas, build fleets with cannons and invade other realms.
Clue 1: new climate
Clue 2: navigation by stars
Clue 3: ships
Clue 4: Contact
Clue 5: Weather/New world
Atlantis sinks huh ...sounds familiar lol
I like this idea of a naval aspect and launching fits in too.
It would be a super way to link worlds if thats part of the plan, take your troops, sail to new lands and set up colonies and that would benefit both ageI and II players - that's just me on a random thought. I'm sticking to my answer above.
All I ask is can I be a Pirate please and have a parrot???
What good is plundering without a parrot? Ooooh Aaaargh me hearties!
The guys can have buxon wenches in every port as long as we get some less poncy looking Kings (WHO designed the Kings in EVONY??? OMG what wusses).
Oh yeah ports, probably need those unless this navy never hits land. Portable devices/Alexey...
Farming fish with ballista will be fun LOL
I really hope that a Naval Evony is right...so much better than silly sims.
Thalin where are youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu?????
Krazy,
Weird you mentioned Sims...someone here at my work, just mentioned that Sim City added climate to the worlds, later on in the game. I personally never have played it, but maybe they are adding climate to Evony...just not sure at this point.
Weather does play an important part in sailing so if we are remotely right in this clue then probably yes Angel haha...Maybe its a new strat...inflict tornado on your victim, this strat can only be used once every 24hr period :P
rofl that would make me mad personally...can you imagine someone destroying all the hard work you've done in your 14 or 16? ugghh I hope not. lol
Seems that they have figured out a way to merge age2 servers.
LMAO Barracks reduced to rubble with one strat :rofl:
Surely you would have to have land contact, its not like you can build a cottage on your galleon or get lumber from a passing floating forest. And more to the point ships MOVE so this has possibly got to be more movey aboutey lol ( be damned if i can think of the word, heads scrambled :dizzy:)
Hey this may not even be right but even if it isn't IT SHOULD BE :rofl:
I could see an age2 server merger, the type of merger that has all the HH's and HC's and to move from na12-to na13 you will need a portal to move allowing you to attack the other servers.
or sail troops across the sea to another server and build a new city there and abide by that servers 'rules' ie na12 being colonise only later servers being colonise and attack, ageI having no HCs and HHs. Who knows for all we know this could be completely wrong.
yeap, it could be something very simple and this has been a total waste of our time, wouldn't be surprised by that actually, just like everything else from evony.
Lol, so this puzzle is like tetris - A "pointless" puzzle game, whos only purpose is to kill time before the launch. haha. But for real, we need a little help here Thalin..
EDIT: No Thalin, I didnt really mean pointless lol
Well Thalins been on and no comment so here is the next shot
Clue 1: Atlantis (game made by Alexey for Tetris, Mir had Atlantis dock - both launched)
Clue 2: Underwater
Clue 3: U (Uranium RADIO activity discovered by French Scientist 1896, used to make green and yellow colours on glass)
Clue 4: Contact where earth meets air (North Pole?)
Clue 5: LEO
Atlantis underwater u contact Leo
EDIT: I may have lost the plot there and yeah I tried loads of email options and failed
Clue 1: Atlantis (game made by Alexey for Tetris, Mir had Atlantis dock - both launched)
Clue 2: Underwater
Clue 3: U (Uranium RADIO activity discovered by French Scientist 1896, used to make green and yellow colours on glass)
Clue 4: Earth meets Air (Horizon, North Pole?)
Clue 5: Found the way and jumped into the Northern Lights with my wellies on - why would I sit at the edge of the earth if its flooded...perhaps it has a wall to sit on...madness
Oh I dunno anymore...off to get a stiff drink lol
tbh even if you described what aether will be 100% would thalin really tell you if youre right? but i wonder will there be an official announcement soon as to what itll be or will all be revealed on the launch day
less than 3 weeks to go....
The zodiac signs each fall under a category of fire, water, earth or air and each zodiac sign is governed by a different celestial body except for:
Gemini (Air) and Virgo (Earth) - who share Mercury
Libra (Air) and Taurus (Earth) who share Venus (love, beauty, military victory)
Mercury is one of the alchemy elements, God of travel, took Larunda to the underworld and a messenger.
Venus has a lesser appreciated link to alchemy, Goddess of love, beauty and military victory.
So therefore when earth and air meet they are in love, alchemy can commence, make gold, the elixir of life and travel
Clue 1: Atlantis
Clue 2: Underwater
Clue 3: U
Clue 4: Contact Earth and Air
Clue 5: Perform alchemy and travel
I said this a little earlier...but it is something to think about IF evony does not put out another age2 server before May 6th. The last one to come out was March 10th, well over a month ago.
I cannot see it just being able to play evony on mobile devices if they don't release another age2 server. No reason they cannot put another server for the month of April if it is just the mobile upgrade. They put out an age1 server about a week ago.
This kind of makes me think that they are doing something to 'upgrade' age2. If it was age3 they are planning, no reason they wouldn't put another age2 server for as they probably would continue to release age1, age2, and then age3 servers monthly. Just something to think about as the May 6th date becomes closer and closer.
