@Mouseketeer In the event of more ARGs taking place, how should these articles be structured? All described in this article, or belonging to a category? [[User:Vide0n|Vide0n]] 23:15, 21 June 2012 (PDT)

== It probably doesn't matter, but bananas were apparently craftable before the day 3 update. ==
 
 
 
On the third day of the ARG, I booted up TF2 in the morning, and kept it open. Later that day, I saw that bananas were craftable, and produced a weird error, but when I went to craft them, it just said "Crafting successful!" with no errors. (And no new item produced)
 
 
 
I then restarted TF2 and it updated, thus allowing me to craft and receive the error like normal.

== Text version of the image ==
 
 
 
I typed out the [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/6/68/Saxton_Hale_Hearing_Transcript.jpg Saxton Hale Hearing Transcript]. Thought it'd be useful to someone: http://pastebin.com/69zV7J6e — [[User:Darkwater|Darkwater]] 09:27, 22 June 2012 (PDT)
 
:Call me crazy, but could Poopy Joe and the Pyro be related somehow? Maybe Pyro IS Poopy Joe? He does have that snazzy Moonman Pack, at least...[[User:Pakaku|Pakaku]] 20:07, 22 June 2012 (PDT)
 
::Still, Pyro can be anything. Folks at the Deadwood Achievement server say that the Pyro could be a female alien, while on Railbait some of us say that the Pyro is Scout's mother. [[User:EMD SD90ACe|EMD SD90ACe]] 04:35, 23 June 2012 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Pyro Post ==
 
 
 
If you place all the words over 3 letters as long sounds and the words with 3 letters or less as a short sound you get: -- --- -. -.. .- -.--
 
This is Monday in Morse Code. Perhaps a small clue.
 
Also the "mph" (Last word of the first line) links directly to the movies page. Perhaps we could add these two facts in even if they're going to be trivia.  [[User:Shamjam96|Shamjam96]] 15:25, 22 June 2012 (PDT)
 
:This is already noted in the article. The 'mph' word link is just the image box overlapping the text.

::I am pretty sure I read somewhere there was another tie-up with SMNC - is it possible that "Monday" relates to Super Monday Night Combat? There was an update earlier not long before the blog update so there may be some egg hiding in there? [[User:Casperr|Casperr]] 17:55, 22 June 2012 (PDT)

== Second Uber Update ==
 
 
 
Do any of you guys think that these minor updates could be hints to an eventual update explosion? That's what I think is going to happen. [[User:EMD SD90ACe|EMD SD90ACe]] 04:40, 23 June 2012 (PDT)

== Regarding the Wiki Changes ==
 
Is there any specific reason why we are not to include the wiki changes into the ARG page? I understand its a "Joke" but are we really 100% sure that valve didn't ask them to do this? --{{SUBST:User:DeadflyProductions/Sig}} 08:31, 23 June 2012 (PDT)
 
:Done by the insane wiki guys, to make the wiki 100% less informative for people who dont get code. No valve job. [[User:TheDoctor|TheDoctor]] 08:35, 23 June 2012 (PDT)
 
::Why do people never get that it's just a joke? [[User:Sven|~Sven~]] 17:30, 24 June 2012 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Some details left out ==
 
 
 
I think it should be noted that the banana peel as well as the wallpaper links were not there earlier (only a floor was shown).
 
Also it says "A page from the transcript" when you can see more pages by clicking on that page, is this new or just a mistake on behalf of the writer?
 
 
 
== Mysterious Promo 5 ==
 
 
 
Well, I get that it's not explicitly linked to Pyromania Update ARG, but the timing fits and I don't think there CAN be proof of them being related before it is released. Maybe we should add it and remove if it turns out to be a false lead? [[User:ShooterAndy|ShooterAndy]] 08:46, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
 
:If it's a false lead, you SHOULD remove it. - [[User:NameUser|NameUser]] 08:47, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
 
::Well, it isn't known yet if it is a false lead or not, but if not than when it turns out to be true it will be too late to add that to the ARG, since it will be over. That's why I have this conundrum. [[User:ShooterAndy|ShooterAndy]] 08:56, 26 June 2012 (PDT)
 
 
 
== M.V.M. Change on Tf2 official blog ==
 
Some people noticed that some classes on official tf2 blog are giving engineer weird looks. Can it be mentioned on this page as part of ARG?
 
 
 
P.S.: Those classes are: (possibly Sniper) Scout, Heaby and Spy. Also engie lost his smile. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' [[User:Qror|Qror]] ([[User talk:Qror|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/Qror|contributions]]) </small>

== Forbidden Page tobor/ ==
 
 
 
This is just an ordinary 403 Forbidden HTTP error message. What is interesting, however, is that it signifies that a tobor/ directory exists, but is not accessible to the public yet. It is probable that it is still being worked on and will go live eventually, or perhaps requires login credentials to be passed to the HTTP request. Or it could just be a red herring. Or a blu herring.

== tobor_a item quality in Steam Web API ==
 
 
 
When I read this article I read about the word "TOBOR" (robot backwards), but this remembered me of the Steam Web API, which had an unused quality named "tobor_a". [http://i.imgur.com/WnbgD.png Screenshot!]

The files [[:File:ARG QR Code Scout.png]], [[:File:ARG QR Code Pyro.png]] and [[:File:ARG QR Code Heavy.png]] have been removed due being unused, but it was used AS A LINK on this page. The link does not counter as an usage, so it doesn't appear in any page as in "File usage" list on the file. I suppose these needs to be re-uploaded.

== This page is full of external links, some that seem untrustworthy. ==
 
 
 
This page is full of external links to Imgur, Imageshack, "git.optf2" (which instances of this one were removed from other pages) and "xkeeper.net". Not on this page, but related, the [[Barely-Melted Capacitor]] page has also a link to "lab.xpaw.ru", whatever that domain is... I {{c|+|Vote}} for a <nowiki>{{cleanup}}</nowiki> on both pages.

:{{c|Support}} These two aren't the only pages affected, I've seen fishy links like these all around here. Personally, I think linking to Discord servers and Reddit posts, on tournament medal pages for example, is an issue aswell, but it's not that important.
