I have Seen a few People posting that they are going to check out Celaeno and Sterope. I would not bother going to them, below is a quote from a post I made about forty pages back.

yep, inclined to agree with you! Good fun, but no barnacle
What's Pluto doing there?
That's just youre image after a week of barnacle hunting. Turn of webcam overlay.

Precisely !
I believe what you're looking at there is what we've called "purrs" they come in high/low patterns. When sped up they sound like a brass instrument (trombone). We've tried turning the high/low into binary to retrieve a message, but nothing has come of it.
sorry for the distraction. i just feel like we should all have a little bit of fun. being business only all the time will fry your brain.
having said that, michaels post agreeing that the UA pointing to merope doesn't necessarily mean they are hand placed in merope has blow my mind and my assumptions sky high. i need to come up with a new method of search.
happy hunting. back to work for me. see you all in the verse in a few hours.

I think so. They'd know the names of inhabited stars from listening to and parroting the nav beacons. And if they knew the name of an uninhabited system they could infer the names of all the bodies in that system since I believe they're named in a deterministic manner. But they'd have no way of knowing/inferring the names of uninhabited systems, nor the "hand named" planets, without eavesdropping on various signals outside the scope of the current game... or capturing a ship given every ship seems to have a complete galactic system map as standard.
thats kind of interesting. Some people at canonn and i were talking about how if you have the UA on any given planet it gives off pulses of colors in a shockwave pattern at slow intervuls. the only colors we have seen so far are green red and yellow..
So FD and MB: ??
how many of you are there out there tonight?, munching on snacks and following the thread, having a jolly good time watching us poor sods figure this thing out. Surely there's more than just 1, perhaps some 3D artist alt-tabbing from his 3DSMAX 2011, or a few of the coders lurking in between a bout of rocket league.
What's it pizza or curry tonite ? and are we on the big screen?

Having watched the thread for ages I feel we are all wasting our time. It is all determined by a keystroke/mouse click somewhere in sunny Cambridge. Once a dead end is reached they drip feed another clue. There will be more to come in 2.1, a bit more in 2.2 until 2.aliens... But do keep going, it helps kill time at work! Wish I had the time..
Only! 30!!! I'm 40 pages behind, just from the day in the office, and I caught up on the train on the way there this morning. Thank god we aren't just adding random crud to this for others to read..... erm...
Re: "obvious when you think about it" explanation for Barnacles being in Nebulae:
Barnacles are filter feeders so this might suggest that the in-game Barnacles "live" by/for filtering the gasses of the Nebula itself since they are found on air-less planets.
If so, does this give us any clue as to their most likely locations? Perhaps on the outer-most planets of a system?

I'm not implying they were deliberately sent our alphabet, but human systems must have been leaking out billions of radio signals and a full Morse alphabet is likely to be among them. A Nav beacon booting up might well send that as a test signal. But you're right, that'll all incidental.
I agree though, I hope there's a plausible reason for the Morse, something better than "that's the only thing the players would figure out".
