Hi,
There has long been a rumor that Blizzard had a mule inside Bioware with the only intention of wanting SWTOR to fail miserably. The idea is rumored to be that putting hidden subtle messages in mathematical format to the SWTOR players will secretly influence their mode and make them dislike the game and unsub.
After some extensive analysis I have uncovered the shocking truth - these messages do exist everywhere!
Here are some proofs of this that everyone should be able to recognize...
First of all SWTOR officially announced that it would be starting its early access on 2011-12-16. Add up these numbers like 20+11+12+16 and you get 59. If you multiply that number by 2 (swtor have 2x .exe files) you get 118. Now if we give every letter in the alphabet a number like A=1 B=2 etc you will soon see the obvious below...
P----L---A---Y---T----I---T--A--N
16+12+1+25+20+9+20+1+14 = 118
Another example:
Patch 1.1.a launched 2012-01-28. Add these dates up and we get the number 20+12+1+28 =61. Again assign numbers to letters and we get..
E---P--I--C--F--A--I---L
5+16+9+3+6+1+9+12=61
More examples:
There are 16 classes in the game (including mirror classes). Multiply that with the number of talent trees every class has access to (three) and you get 16 x 3 =48. Now multiply the number of warzones (three) with the number of tiers of PvP gear (three) with the highest amount of goals you can score in Hutball and still lose the game (five) and you get the number 3 x 3 x 5 =45. Now add the first number (48) with the second number (45) and you get 48+45 = 93. Now again use the numbered letters..
L-----O---L----P---V---P
12+15+12+16+22+16 = 93
More examples:
Add the max level number (50) with the number of PvE tiers of gear (three) and you get the number 50+3 = 53. Multiply that number with the number of turrets in the Alderan warzone (three) and you get the number of 53 x 3 = 159. On top of this add the number of social tiers (ten) and you get the number of 159+10 = 169. Once again add the letters up by numbers and it all comes clear..
B---L---I--Z---Z----A---R--D--O---W---N---S
2+12+9+26+26+1+18+4+15+23+14+19 = 169!!
A last example..
Take the number of maximum skill points (40) and multiply it with the number of talent trees (three) and you get the number 40 x 3 = 120. Now subtract the max number of companions you can send on crew skills (five) and you get the number 120-5 = 115. Now use the same letter formula and voila...
P----L---A---Y---W---O--W
16+12+1+25+23+15+23 = 115!!
The above is just some examples of the extensive amount of hidden messages in this game..
The above is not a product of pure chance. I have calculated the above scenario to only happen due to RNG once per 10^200!
Personally I believe I should be awarded with atleast a 1Y free sub for cracking all those nasty secret codes and exposing them to the comunity

I think I love you...
Made me smile
Someone has waaaay too much time on their hands.
For someone who doesn't play TOR you sure spend a lot of time posting about it here and reading the official forums.
Now I believe too much MMO makes people crazy.
Uh uh... ok... cool story
"Esport with tournaments is for hardcore pvp'rs that want to be competitive. Openworld PVP with ganking and griefing is for casuals that just wants their pvp mixed with pve from time to time."
otacu
Numbers don't lie but SWTOR will fail on it's own, no need for hidden messages. With the replayability of a 15mill asian MMO with enough loading and useless cutscenes (getting on your ship... leaving every planet... light speed) the game will kill itself over a couple months.
Made me laugh and deffo too much time on their hands
God that was funny, thank you for posting this.

nice
I laughed so hard my tin foil hat fell off.
For me its the same as watching the news.. Im home all day so I need to kill some time... Been posting alot.. I usaly get baned fast.. but this time around Iv been able to sneak past the Bannhammer longer then usually...
The MMORPG moderators will catch me soon and seend me on another forced break from these forums.. they can last days or months depending on how Naughty they think I have been... Iv lost count how many times Ive gotten temporaly baned from these forums. haha.. So I have to maximise the amounts of post I can make before its all over
Let me guess to much time coz the game is so boring :P Nice work lol
Funny stuff, years ago I saw a similar numerical 'proof' that WOW was promoting devil worship or something like that.
I guess if you try hard enough you can prove just about anything.

Rofl ok we need more posts like this I rate you a 10 very funny
You don't have to try terribly hard.
Step 1: Write a sentence or sentence fragment
Step 2: Calculate the "numerical value" of said fragment
Step 3: Manipulate any and all numbers you can find to make your "numerical value" true
Step 4: Profit!
There was also something about subliminal messages in WOW. Not sure but I think it was the angel, or whatever it is, that let you rewpawn at its location if you didnt want to do a corpse run. It was supposed to be saying something to make you play the game.
Really? This game sucks and Im not having fun? Im going to unsub right now. Thanks for the tip.
"mule"?
------- END TRANSMISSION
That was good for a giggle!
the guy who made this post on the swtor forums is a total moron.... on his examples there are some of the numbers that are not included or have anything to do with swtor or its release / patches... he just made that up, mixed the numbers and put it in that order to form the words.... what a jackazz....try harder LOL
are you even alive in there?
dont know what you mean, sorry

1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.
2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.
3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.
Lol, this is the same thing as those people looking for "the bible code" who writes book when the world is going under based on hidden messages in the bible.
Some people just have too much time on their hands.
