and i turned my back on you and i'm sorry

Let me explain. This gonna be a long one so buckle in, babes. 

Last night, a new gif was put in the vessel section of the TOP store. As the end of the gif was this image with a website link

If you follow the link, it sends you to a site with this error message

Take note that the captalized letters spell out EAST IS UP- we’ll get to that later. If you put the violation code in the link, it sends you to a site with several pictures. Let’s start with this one

Again, that weird message about east is up. Also take note of ‘the compass lies’, important for later. What is this, you’re wondering? Well, it’s a dema, otherwise known as a tower of silennce, otherwise known as a place where corpses were left so that vultures could pick them clean. Below is am outline of a dema

What’s more is that the numbers in the upper corner correspond to the vessel release date. You’ll also notice that the nine circles in the middles of this particular dema look suspiciously similar to the blurryface cover art. Again, we’ll get to this later. Let’s move on to the other images, each of which corresponds with another album.

Notice the numbers in the upperhand corner. Those are a date, specifically the date self titled was released. Moreover, the birds picture are sitting in a row, so you could call them an isle of flightless birds. There’s also twenty one of them.

Again, the numbers in this image are the release date of regional at best. There’s also a child in the picture, as in the RAB cover art.

Next is this one. It seems to suggest some sort of prisoner escape, from a dema. The numbers in this one are Tyler’s birth date. Also, the white symbols in the black box look like the bottom half of the fairly local image- the few, the proud, the emotional. Also, death eaters are another word for vultures, because, ya know.

Now, hang on, because this is where things get complicated. Here’s the final image

If you look it up you can get a readable quality, but basically it goes on about how this guy Clancy was working and staying in the dema, and had realised in his ninth year that it wasn’t good for him. It’s been nine years since TOP formed. Again, the scrawled words on this one say east is up, but also west is blocked. 

Now, remember how the middle of the dema looked like the blurryface cover art? lets zoom in on that

Notice the letters. Well, the lovely @thunderrmufin on twitter pointed out that the letters surrounding each circle correspond to a line in a song from blurryface.

Now, remember all that shit about the compass lies and east is up? Well, keep in mind I’m having trouble with a source for this next image, but it appears that someone found the missing piece of the map

Even if this image is faked, the way the compass is styled - with north up- is the standard for maps. Now, if you turn the map so that east is up, the circles with the letters correspond to the songs in the blurryface art that those letters are from.

Think that’s all? You are quite mistaken. Not only do those letters around the circle correspond to lyrics, if you type “andre lisden keons nigo reisdro sacarver nills vetomo listo” into google translate, it’s Luxembourgish for “ In other words, there is a list of other keywords”. You can fact check that, I’m not gonna screen shot it. Now, let’s focus on the word Andre specifically. If you go to Andre Weil’s wikipedia page, his picture includes the boy that was attached to the vessel image from before.

Now, what was he known for? A bunch of things, but specifically for inventing the empty set symbol TOP is so fond of

What does all of this mean? Well, no idea. But they’re definitely active, as fueled by ramen has officially relisted them as such. Note that all of these websites, while leading to the same place, either generate an error image or simply a blank image. However, they were at one point up and running, and it was the gif from TOP that led to them. I’ll try to keep this updated, if you have anything else, feel free to add on.

P.S.- there’s rumors of a youtube channel with the violation code as it’s name going around, and it does have weird videos, but we’re 95% sure it’s fake
