thanks milly for the sig
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

Our advanced server architecture can support many thousands of users simultaneously in the same location.'
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???

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
