    You don’t even need to try very hard, just throw in some nonsense and someone will make up a plausible explanation.

      I’m talking like throwing some messages in binary through specific set of sub pixels of images for a year that all come through because they’re my actual plans, then switching them to obviously insane nonsense that will take way longer to disprove and finding a way to get someone to notice.

        I’m always curious about how hard it is to make insane nonsense that’s hard to disprove. Like, 100% randomization seems like it could be easier to detect vs. more believable things added by people.

        So then you have to spend time making it believable…

          I was thinking kind of like steganography.

          “If you take the green subpixel at (46,85), (75,32)… it contains just enough letters you could read as words that form a story detail. And in this post it’s a gameplay hint. And this one is a character name” but the same locations enough times in a row that it’s hard to be random. Then post a crazy fan theory post after the early ones are known facts about the game and I’ve embedded crazy shit in a few.
