This is a topic in which readers are being asked what they think the Greek letters on the shield in the MaestrO game might mean.

THE LINK BELOW IS TO A SCREEN CAPTURE OF THE SHIELD
which has been turned through 180 degrees in order to put the letters into their correct orientation as the shield as it is on the wall in the game is hung upside down.

The following link is to our translation of the Greek letters into their Greek names, i.e. ALPHA & OMEGA, then into their equivalent letters in the English alphabet + numbered etc.

In this post I will link all the language & alphabet translation pages I can find that I feel are most helpful in translating & interpreting the above shield

http://www.google.co.uk/search?....CCsQsAQ

I will continue to update it as I/we come across information we feel may be of help.

Please note I have now created a central post on the Tubular Talk\general discussions board of the forum under SYMBOLS in MIKE'S WORK which has many links to information that may be useful in interpreting these symbols & it can be accessed via this link http://tubular.net/forums/symbols-in-mikes-works--?act=ST;f=9;t=10382

There are other topics in which we find more Greek letters, i.e in Mikes other game Tres Lunas we find Greek letters on a Celtic Cross which in a TV interview MO said was his tomb stone & in this game the same letters can also be seen on the upper side of the huge space craft that is high above tr3s lunas out in space (not the small one you see whilst on the ground). The 4 letters on the space ship are repeated 4 times one on top of each other.
This is a link to the topic: http://tubular.net/forums....;t=7778

These same Greek letters also appear in this game MaestrO and are discussed in the topic you will find by following this link http://tubular.net/forums....;t=8387
There is one other place I have noticed that may well have Greek writing and this is on Mikes hand on the photo that was included in the artwork on the album cover for TBIII, the topic can be found via this link http://tubular.net/forums....;t=2706

The interesting thing about the blue shield text is that it is not just inverted but also reflected. If it were simply inverted the conclusion would be "negate any message found herein"; the reflection, though, suggests that the message is more complex - perhaps arising almost as if through some vector x product (Ugo loves recreational maths and will understand this), with the resultant directed out of the plane of worldly concerns and rules altogether.
