Sorry if a threads already been posted here, but I couldn't see one.
It seems Valve has started yet another ARG, revolving around the number three.
It started by a Valve employee wearing a HL3 Shirt. Then at the VGA Awards where Valve put up a video of Wheatley talking about the Awards and asking for a rescue. However during this there were some numbers (believed to be coordinates) down the side. Then on Ratmanns twitter (https://twitter.com/#!/Doug_Rattmann) Ratmann after lying Dormant for months posted a lot of Numbers which correspond with the ones down the side of the screen during the video.
He also said one, one, one. This has been read into as adding up to three.
There's also text at the top of the video which says:
СПУТНИК НАБЛЮДЕНИЯ "ЛАНТАНУМ"
This translates to: OBSERVATION SATELLITE "LANTHANUM"
The work for Lanthanum comes from the Greek word: λανθανω which means to lie hidden. Interestingly enough it starts with the Lambda as well, the symbol for Half life.
Also Lanthanum has an Atomic Number of 57,which is in group three of the Periodic table.
There's also a link to Team fortress. I've been informed those Grockets have three ladders. Another Three.
Thoughts guys? Do you think it's anything to do with episode three? have you discovered anything else?
