L means 50 but W doesn't mean anything (as far as i know)

besides, i think i like the idea of having numbers and letters rather than just numbers. More possibilities.

I didn't really think this was important at first, butit couldn't hurt to post. Everyone of the events that had a clue in it was named with 1 letter. It might meen somthing. The letters in order are L, E, A, T, I, C. And the code i still haven't figured out yet is D, which would go after the E i guess.

They're used in the secret Cocoa scene, nothing to do with the game.


Damn! Did I miss another Easter egg? Where is it?

And I'd really like to know what the hell the stuff on the Start Map is... It must have some secret meaning. WHY IS LUN SO EVIL?! Honestly, he should be revealing secrets IN THE GAME ITSELF...

The event title letters seem like they'd be important but when it comes to the significance of L and W... we have a bunch of codes we could use (ASCII, HTML, etc.). You could even align it in braile... but I'd rather not.

How about the notes from the House of Pnoe?

--------------------------------------
Girl: Need anything?
Note: Yes... maybe we could go out somewhere together.
Rhue: A way to get into "the Scene".
Girl: Sorry, can't help you. But I'll keep my eyes open for someone who can.
Note: Oh... all right... I understand.
Rhue: Thanks.
--------------------------------------
Girl: Have you found that person you were looking for yet?
Note: No, I don't think I have. Maybe she doesn't exist...
Rhue: Not yet, but I'm sure the portal stone will help us locate her soon.
--------------------------------------
Girl: What's new?
Note: I'm dating a girl
Rhue: Nothing much, looks like we're going to be heading into the Lost City soon.
Girl: You are?! Be careful!
Note: I will be.
--------------------------------------
Girl: The Lost City is a dangerous place. Tread lightly, okay?
Note: I know that!
--------------------------------------
Girl: Hey, is there anything I can do for you?
Note: No. There's nothing to be done anymore.
Rhue: Not really. Just thought I'd say goodbye. I don't think I'll be coming back for a long time.
Girl: Really? Where are you going?
Note: Somewhere I never wanted to go.
Rhue: I can't really say, cause I don't really know.
Girl: That sounds really strange.
Note: Yes, it is strange. I feel that way almost all the time.
Rhue: Yea, I guess it does. Anyway, bye.
Girl: Take care.
Note: You too.

It's like Lun wrote a bunch of alternate dialogue for Rhue... Take out his lines and it makes sense. Except in this one:

Girl: Need anything?
Note: Yes... maybe we could go out somewhere together.
Girl: Sorry, can't help you. But I'll keep my eyes open for someone who can.
Note: Oh... all right... I understand.

Girl: Sorry, can't help you (with a date). But I'll keep my eyes open for someone who can.


These notes are really cool, whatever they are.

In RM2K, Go into Menu room, then into Gallery. Theres two Cocoa maps, the first is a dodgeball game, the second is a secret scene were the truth about The Way is revealed. And yes, you do have to talk to the sword 100 times.

And as for the L's and W's, my guess is that somewere there are 5 events or somthing lined up like that, each with a message in them. And then use Strayed's line and word idea to get somthing that hopefully leads to somthing else. I could be completly off, but thats my best idea at the moment.

Heh, and the amusing thing is that I only came upon this by accident. But it seems that notes are scattered all over the game. I bet there's plenty more to be found. Just wait until it's released, and everyone's combing theough the game.

Wow, Lun HAS been reading our theories... Even the ones about Dippy! Why wasn't the D in his name capitalized, though?

There are one or two notes hidden in the arena crowd as well, nothing that special though... well some of it is... odd.

One of 'em is:

"Sometimes I feel stopped. Nothing is moving forward except time.
Tension mounts. Walls break. Inspiration floods the plain."

I spent a little while working with the L#W# puzzle, I attempted using L=lead (clue) and W=word to make sentences... didn't seem to work. Unless there was a first clue we skipped... and I kept reording them because of the fork, still found nothing.

Oh, um... the crack in the wall clue is repeated in the Wine Cellar.

No, I mean, that one goes beyond making sense, to having a different meaning altogether. Weird...

Edit: Whoa, hold on, what's "the sand wall melee"? (Page 9 of The Girl's event, which is actually on the bench) Seriously, these notes are WEIRD. I wonder if some of them were meant to be alternate dialogue, or if they're meant to be what Rhue is thinking...

Edit 2: I'll get the quotes, it's odd that SpaceBoy didn't post them already.

Girl: It's been awhile! (Lun, if you're reading this, a while is two words, only just noticed that >_<) How are youdoing?
Note: Things are still going pretty well. We're in love.
Rhue: Pretty good, we're on our way to visit someone.
Girl: Who is it?
Rhue: His name is Jopaga.
Note: Someone I met at the sand wall melee.

It's actually kind of funny how The Girl's dialogue makes perfect sense, whatever Rhue is saying... This one is great:

Girl: What's new?
Note: I'm dating a girl
Girl: You are?! Be careful!
Note: I will be.


I mean, dating a girl equates to going to the Lost City? Nice joke. >_>

I went through every single map in the game with a call event, and scrolled all of the lists for a single letter name event. There were no more. So... we got the letters... all of em.

There are seven events with single letter names. When you rearrange the letters, they spell out CITADEL. Damn you to hell, Lun. Citadels on the title screen, but not in the story. It just feels like one of those lazy loose ends Lun didn't feel like tying up... But I KNOW there must be more... I have some faith left that Lun wants everything to make sense, but then why did he leave so much unexplained?
