Day 5: Splash and Purple Penguin

Posted 27th Jun 2008 09:19 AM by Flux

The 5th (and second to last?) day of splash images has arrived, and here they are.  The breaking ice hasn’t advanced very much in this image, but the runes have been made more obvious, the 5th rune of a snowflake seems like an obvious reference to Blizzard itself, and the glowing eyes and demonic face in the center is more evident than previously.

As for the secret purple beast; the 5th image is linked, and named “harbinger.” The 6th image was available as well, using the Lost six-number code, and here’s the whole image. It’s a… penguin?

Right at the bottom of the master.css file, after all the lines of “.” characters:

.evilpenguin {background:url(_images/42.jpg) no-repeat 0 0} */

So I guess it’s an evil penguin.

It’s not just a penguin, but an evil penguin. Image 42 is referenced at the very bottom of the CSS source, with label "evilpenguin".

hmmm notice how the purple beast in has 3 fingers and the diablo on the WWI poster has somewhat the same gesture with his hand 3 fingers…. diablo 3? who knows although alot of people may say its the lich king 100% REMEMBER blizzard does this ALL the time makes us think its obvious with its not at all. i think they are trying to make us think that it is arthas. while investigating the actual picture i noticed….well what about the actual BEAST..the dark lord in all his glory. looks pretty similar doesnt he. it STILL could be him. im almost for SURE that itll happen NOTE TO BLIZZ: i hate you for hyping us all up its going to make my brain explode!!!! DIABLO 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

To re-hash what’s been gathered thus far:

tundra
cold
cavern
harbinger
icy
evilpenguin


4 8 12 15 16 23 42 are the numbers corresponding to each hidden image given.

I don’t know what the penguin is all about but it is showing us three fingers and it has not two normal feet, but one “devils’s leg” ...

Does anyone recognize the artist’s signature? :whistling:

In the order they appear in the master.css file:
tundra 04
cold 16
cavern 15
harbinger 08
icy 23
evilpenguin 42

In alphabetical order:
cavern 15
cold 16
evilpenguin 42
harbinger 08
icy 23
tundra 04

In order of image file number / Lost number:
tundra 04
harbinger 08
cavern 15
cold 16
icy 23
evilpenguin 42

Right, now WHAT does that tell us? smile Where is the pattern? smile
