I would like to point out that onboarderror.com, thestormseeker.com, and the main ip for the server, 66.49.198.77 are all down and have been down since early this morning.
Yeah, Tuesday they were down too. Maybe both are being updated or edited for something?
Hereās to another year of this ARG. 
Happy New Year guys.
Kind of off topic but if you guys are looking for an ARG to solve that isnāt impossible, thereās a new one by Valve for the Steam Store.
Yeah, that one has had my interest the past few days. The whole ARG, the āValve Content Showcaseā mentioned by HTC in that letter about the Viveās delay, the HL3.txt, SteamDB leak, and now actual lambdas and crowbars showing up in this new ARG? It seems we might actually see a Half Life 3 announcement in the next few days(although Iām always never getting too overhyped with this sort of stuff, always prepared for letdown).
Anyways, back to topic, I found out about this āBlack Mesa Incidentā ARG that took place awhile back. There are lots of similarities between the two, including even WSMR being mentioned. Maybe we should look into it and try to see if there are any similarities between the two.
P.S. HAPPY NEW YEARS! 8o
Thereās no HL3 ARG. Just a bunch of people on Reddit getting excited over a random JPEG compression artifact. Itās actually pretty sad.
just a thought, but the HALOS project having to do with an AI and dr horn. Has anyone thought maybe itās the TALOS principal and that ai?
I dunno if Iām misunderstanding what youāre saying or not, but to answer you, no. Talos Principle came out 2 years after Black Mesa. Or do you mean something similar to that?
Also, I happened to find that thestormseeker.com has a ftp we can access. I just found this out, and came here to post, so I havenāt tested anything yet.
I think half life and portal worldās are going to be combined, talos is alot like portal, and I just recently read about halos project and an ai, just thought it seemed very similar.
Yeah, I can see that line of thinking. Well anyways, welcome to this enigma of an ARG! The more the merrier.

Also, I looked up āFTP 21ā and got this from the beginning of the āProtocol Overviewā section of the FTP wiki entry:
Is this what the 21 into 1 clue is about? I donāt recall anyone ever bringing up this FTP stuff, and I canāt find anything about it on the wiki and this thread. Maybe this is a solid lead? Also, is it weird to have a publicly accessible FTP? Or is it normal or my browser just being tricked into thinking thereās an FTP? Weāve speculated thereās another site out there before, as it seems pretty obvious there is, so maybe this is it.
EDIT: I didnāt even check before looking at FTP stuff, but thestormseeker.com is down right now apparently still. So is OnBoardErrorās. Weird.
Also, should we start up a Discord chat? I think itād be neat to have something easy to hop on and use to chat and brainstorm in our free time.
I just found out about all this, Iām trying to catch up as fast as possible, no pc until Tuesday, Iām a cell phone warrior until then, excited about this, I got free time
Glad that you have, we are at a low point in this ARG as you can probably see. We could always use some more help here. What brought you here anyway?
In speaking on what has brought new players to this ARG, i think a video that VNN made about a year ago brought all those new players here and i was one of them, however most of them have left.
About the ftp extension on stormsseekers website, ftp is short for file transfer protocol, it does however seem very weird that we cant access stormseekers main website, but can reach the ftp one.
I have also checked Anthony Stones website and i still do get a 404 not found message, the same as stormseekers website.
Considering the fact that both are down but i can still get a ping from it using command prompt using the ping command and the fact that both are registered to Anthony Stone AKA onboarderror is very odd.
This is the VNN video i was talking about.

also, trying to link 21 into 1 to half life, only thing I can find so far thst relates is BEHEMOTH, 1:21 genesis,
reading into this winter sale arg, that lead me here, I have played A LOT of hl in my days, so this arg is far more appealing to me, Iām convinced hl and portal and black mesa are on a collision course
Behemoth And leviathan, both are in hl, both are in Genesis 1:21, more than a coincidence?
so maybe something has been missed around those things in game
You do know you can edit your posts so you donāt have to keep making new posts right?
lol, yeah, sorry, on a phone, Iāll clean it up from now on
Storm has commented twice about hacking sites, telling us that āhacking methods are not really within the spirit of the argā and āIāve not set up or had any sites setup for hackingā so, spending time trying to access his ftp site would appear to be a useless endeavor.
I was not talking about hacking, i just said that what i found was very odd.
