AhAh!
I love you all guys... it seems we have disagreements here
My thoughts on the matter:
We do not know what this CG will bring to the story but, according on how much care FD put on the riddle to find it, it seems to me that it must be important.
So, positive or not, it needs to be done.
To let the story unfold.
I'm sure we'll have plenty of things to do in the future to counter it if it is bad.
Right now, what I think is: "the show must go on".
This is though I feel the one biggest thing that people seem to forget about CGs. The story will go on!
There's always 2 base outcomes, succeed or fail. FD know where the story will go for each outcome. So you say let the story unfold, well it will do either way. If the money grabbing community want that to be to an unknown end, even if it's just terrorists taking down a super power, then so be it.
Always remember Emperor's Dawn though. One of the first CGs, FD knew how they wanted the story to turnout and unfold but the community backed the terrorists and so as well as having to bin months of preparation and follow up work, they had to write the story in a new direction.

We scanned all 4 at the same time and nothing happened if that helps.
I have already gave up:

The GRIND is too strong in this community...

+1 (and more as soon as I am allowed)
The definition of hunt that I am referring to is "to seek out", not find and kill. Though that may end up happening
OOC: I'm just going to be clear with you, that I was careful to avoid using any "out of game" references. Discord, forums and even reddit have been referred to in game(albeit by different names). I did this because this was a bit of a roleplay, and I hope you were too. I'm all for doing the CG to see where the story goes.
In Character: I've said this once before, and I'll say it again. There is nothing for the Canonn to gain by supplying terrorists with a potential BioWeapon. If you want to do it yourself, that is fine. But there is no good reason to associate the Canonns name with such acts.
See, look. Now we have got agenda pushing here.

OOC: No I got it.
IC: I'm not recommending providing them with it at all, I'm trying to stop people from doing it. The trouble is people don't care about the outcome, they just see the Cr. Supporting terrorism "just to see where the story goes" is, in my opinion, a terrible idea.
Oh and just ignore Cookie, it's for the best
But it is a good example of how people assume it's about taking down the government, just because it's November 5th and that's what the CG was based around last year (not that it actually ended up happening that way).
Kudos for tryin' though! o7
maybe someones trying to give humans a virus and is spreading it in foodstuffs
Guys, maybe it's a stupid question but....
What if it moves?? Yeah I know we still have no idea what the ruins are and what they do (if they do anything) but for me it is some kind of a machine. On one picture here (spoiler no. 2) we can see (yeah I know, it a bit cheating with debug camera going under the terrain, but we can clearly see that what is above ground is just a tip of an ice berg) that it is a massive structure.
What if it is a machine and it moves like so:
It can't (maybe can't) move to the left as there is some higher ground in the circle, but it could move to the right. Also the smaller circle in the bottom left corner, looks similar to the big circle, I did overlay the, they don't quite match but they share a lot of similarities. With the beacons growing up from the ground FDEV's showed us that it is possible to have a "growing", "moving", "doing something", unlike static - alien ship wrecks - structures.

Actually that is just garbage that the devs don't want us to see. Clip through geometry in any game and you'll see stuff like that. So that is not reliable evidence to go on.
CG that can only be seen, if you have the right Information (Wright City in ELLI), that came from the Guy Fawkes transmission ( https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/581b5f259657ba866ca44a9f ) at Novas. Some Organization want's Toxjandi Virocide. For what? Nobody knows. But since you've reped my crazy theory, you know my share of the cake

I know its a bit late (still catching up wit the thread, currently @ page 127 of, at current writing, 364 pages) I regularly check the FP for the latest developments. seeing the comment made by our Savior and Overlord MB made me think that the current Beacon Mystery that led to the discovery of another crashed alien ship and the different other beacons that spew out encrypted messages was (part of) the original 'path' of leading us to the Ruins.
I wonder what they will have in store for us next.... I also wonder where that ship graveyard (spoken of in the black wheel books(?)) is at. I believe someone mentioned them somewhere in this thread that it is in game now? would be something to visit it I believe.
now back to reading this thread.....

A Virocide is not a Virus. Actually, it's called a Viricide and it destroys the Virus (hence, "Pest Control")
As promised earlier, from my adventure in Elli system this evening. I'm not a video guy, so don't expect any magic. It's just a recording of me not getting killed:
