I was just checking out the 2027 updates (seems Ded posted an update on his Livejournal), and found this screenshot:

It rather strongly reminded me of this age old TNM POTW:

2027 had an update? Link plz

Post by **Trestkon** » Mon Jan 15, 2007 5:14 pm

Hmm, I actually don't have the link, I got the screenie links from the DXAlpha forums, which I check out every once in a while.

Found it, but it might need some translation...if anyone is up for it. (I can't get bablefish to generate even a crappy translation)

the most i can make out is the first paragraph, which comes to something like

"this is a christmas gift (for those who do christmas). i lost the password for the site, so i will write here."

lol the more I look at it, the more it looks like our DXO map! It's like a carbon-copy of that room, only mirrored and retextured

What a weird coincidence.

Well, actually, I hacked your server, downloaded the DXO map, uploaded it to Project2027 and said to ded: "what if you just mirror that and retexture it, they'll never know!"

I reckon there are only a few designs that really fit 'barely used underground bunker-thing with rustic ambient lighting'..and you've just happened to choose the same one.

But which of you is the Thylacine....?

Hahah, no man, check this out, here's a shot from DXO with a better angle (and conveniently mirrored to prove my point):

And again, Ded's 2027 map:

That is not just a coincidence, that is a freaky coincidence!

Aw man, his crosshairs look like ours too! And he used the Endemia models as well

We gotta get our mod out first, or everybody will already be used to all our new stuff from 2027 by the time TNM is done!

At least his weapons don't look like ours, our weapons are hilarious, Ded's are just cool.

Probably TNM will be out first... I hope, truthfully I wont care if its not, I'll still love it more, whatever the case may be.

I think I might be able to get a translation off a friend of this.

Maybe.

Is there some kind of mirror world in TNM or something?
