How to decipher the hieroglyphs on Santrap! UPDATE: Debunked?
Do you guys remember the secret of sandtrap? And how bungie even said those hieroglyphs on sandtrap meant something?? Well I think I figured out how to decode it. I just need help.
It involves the terminals.
In the terminals, remember how some of the letters would change into a symbol, and then back again? Those symbols are the same ones in sandtrap. And I believe this is how to decode them.
For example, lets use the word "Bungie". Say the letter "i" changes to a forerunner symbol. Lets use 7 as a placeholder. That would look like "Bung7e". It will quickly change back to the orignal spelling of "Bungie".
Since the letter "i" turns into the forerunner symbol "7", that means that the symbol "7" means "i".
Makes sense right? The problem is that the terminals move way too fast. If we could get someone to record all the terminals in HD and SLOW THEM DOWN, we could decipher the secret of sandtrap. And even if this doesn't relate to destiny, it would be the biggest easter egg find of all time, even bigger then the Megg.

I think I have debunked my original theory. The symbols appear to be random, as demonstrated [url=http://i45.tinypic.com/2mh5rhl.png]here[/url]. Sad, but maybe there is something else to these terminals. We should look through the terminals to see what we find. The secret of Sandtrap still is out there.[/quote]

Sorry dude, but there's no way Halo 3 would give us any clues to Destiny and if The Community can't find anything in [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=25852444]400 pages[/url] I think you're going on a wild goose chase.

Well I've got nothing going on this week, I could help translate.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] lVl e r c u r y Even if it is something and ou figure it out, you're not really going to learn anything about Destiny. [/quote] It's almost definitely not going to have anything to do with destiny, people are only making those links because of the timing. I mean say this was discovered during the GRD Helmet uproar, people would've assumed it's related to that. It's probably a small message from Bungie that we've only just uncovered, and I can honestly say I [i]want[/i] to know what it is and I'd help if I could but sadly I don't have the necessary equipment or software.

Forerunners are Halo related. Halo belongs to Bungie. Halo has nothing to do with Bungie's new project. Case closed. Sorry, not trying to be an ass, I'm just trying to show why people shouldn't put time into this investigation and stick to the Geomancy.

We've gone over this. There is no "Secret of Sandtrap." Get over it, move on, and finally do something more productive. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] orlando1971 Do you guys remember the secret of sandtrap? [/quote]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] jka21345 I have a capture card just tell me what I need to do :)[/quote] Find all the terminals and record them in HD and post a link on here so we can view it in slow mo. PM some of the people posting in this thread, they are willing to help. We can't get started until we get this video.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Evic22 So it begins again. This is very interesting i would love to help.[/quote]

Anything new?
-
i dont know if anyone has noticed this yet but some of the symbols on sandtrap look similar to the ones on sandbox

So it begins again. This is very interesting i would love to help.

If Somebody uploads this I will personally frame by frame find out what the terminals mean.

Who shall join me!?[/quote] Finding the terminals won't be hard by yourself. Because you can do them on easy, right? Or is it different? Anyway, if you upload them in slow motion and HD, I will go through and write down which symbols mean what letters. I will post an image of the findings on here, and with help, we will use it to finally read sandtrap's walls. I'd love to help with the terminals, but I do not have access to an xbox right now.[/quote] In order to get the full terminals I will have to find them on legendary. I am preparing my capture card now :)[/quote] Could I help :)?[/quote] Thanks, guys. Good luck. When will the video be completed? I won't be able to look at it tonight, but I will translate the English alphabet tomorrow if the video is complete and in slow-mo. Also, I will give credit to you for doing this.

Sounds like a plausible theory, but there has to be more to it than that or it would have been discovered a long time ago. I'm willing to help, but I don't have a capture card. Though if I can find a good video of the terminals on youtube, I can slow down.
-
Look at yall still talking when there's taping to do! When I look around I can see we'll fall through, Unless yall get right to work, getting rid of quirks Cause the Secret is still Unknown.

This needs to.be completed faster.
