THE FORMIDINE RIFT MYSTERY (Part 4)

@Jaiotu
There were several GalNet articles related to Salomé that didn't get much attention and were quickly forgotten.
Even more so for some of the other news that weren't blatantly, absolutely obvious related to the mysterious stuffs ingame.
Edit: And I just realized that one of the GalNet Articles I thought of has your name at the bottom ^^
Edit#2:
I remembered that one specifically because it mentions the connection of Rift, Conflux, Hawkins Gap and the Pleiades.

Lol, yes. Whatever we're looking for probably won't be in a Freelance report.
There is a Bellerophon in the game, it's a Federation capital ship orbiting Merope 5C.
Again, extending the Fibonacci series in a different way, starting with Fi(0) we get
.
0,1,1,2,3,5,6,11,654,665,1319 From this series we have F(0),F(1),F(2),F(3),F(4),F(5),F(6),F(7),F(8),F(9),F(10).
.
Again not sure if to apply SUM(10,7,5,3), so that:
10 = F(10) = 1319
7 = F(7) = 11
5 = F(5) = 5
3 = F(3) = 2
SUM Total 1337
I have tried all the names on the list, but not all are coming up on the galmap for me, testing to see if it is because I don't have the system information but I don't think it's the case, will know shortly...
You are referencing to the video, right?
DB-IB Fi(0) T-1319 SUM(10,7,5,3)
The first line is what bothers me.

This is absolutely mindblowing, and yes: Elite! Good work, CMDR!
So, stand back for a hip shot attempt.
DB-IB 1984 Elite. Fi(0) = where it all started. Lave.
Yes.

Outstanding work CMDRS!
1337 means leet or leetspeak... dunno if it fits somewhere
1337? Every 1980's haX0r knows this number...it means Elite. Like in Panther Moderns, Henry D. Case, McCoy Pauley et. al.
The appearance of this number just cannot be coincidence. Not here.

"Another successful adaptation is 1337 (meaning "Elite" in Leetspeak)[URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elite_%28video_game%29#cite_note-108"][108][/URL] developed by Jose Maria Enguita for the Oric machines, that won the 2010 Oldschool Gaming Game Of The Year Award"

If you were using 1319, 1984, 3303 as points in a Fibonacci-esque series, then I would have thought it would look like this:
-632, 643, 11, 654, 665, 1319, 1984, 3303, 5287, 8590, 13877, 22467, 36344
I'm not sure how your series goes from 6,11 and then straight to 654, (6+11 = 17 and not 654).
But this isn't a valid fibonacci series, it breaks as 6,11 should be followed by 17, and 3,5 would be followed by 8.
It does give a nice answer, but maybe coincidence.
DB-IB = David Braben - Ian Bell
T-1319 = 3303 - 1319 = 1984 (year of release)
Elite = 1337 is nice but the sequence isn't valid
Thinking outside the box a bit, Lave was where *players* started in the original, but in terms of the game development itself, it would have almost certainly been in Cambridge.
A while back there were Galnet posts regarding unusual ship movements at Cambridge spaceport in Sol, and if memory serves Salome herself visited Sol in order to use the observatory in...Cambridge.
Coincidence? Maybe...maybe not.

What Klumpozyte posted before, just a reminder:
and
That's what Drew posted on twitter for this riddles.
So, we are searching for locations ingame, i asume.
Not a phrase? :/
