I do prefer Myradia to 10,000 Days. But if that's not Maynard (which it's not cmon) then it's just some random guy coming up with some pretty creative ideas which are just that, creative, until the band finally uncovers our eyes...

Personally, I think Myriad Days is a little more creative sounding than 10,000 Days, and even though I don't mind 10,000 Days, Myriad Days sounds a little more "Toolish." I wouldn't be suprised if Myriad is the name of the album though. I think it's pretty cool.

Also, the more and more I look at them, those tracks are pretty Toolish, almost reminiscent of Aenima.

But in the same respect... in that same newsletter...

TOOL:
BACK TO THE DRY-ERASE MESSAGE BOARD

Having returned from their holiday cheer to the dystopia that is much of Hollywood, at precisely 12:06 (when Danny arrived) on Thursday, January 6th, 2005 e.v., the members of TOOL gathered at the rehearsal space to resume writing and arranging the music for their next record. Although I'm not going to pay them a visit until tomorrow (after all, they're probably a little rusty - and there's nothing worse than a Daedalian-complex train wreck), while gazing into Danny's psychomantium (after fixing a faulty float connected with its make-shift pump), I was able to discern in its dark surface certain new additions to the arsenal designed to pierce the aethyrs.

Daedalian reference.. they knew what the Hell they were doing...

just throwing this out there. But the . . . - . . - - . - - Could be morse code. Just one of the possiblities being METIS M (translation of M of Mixed Blood). BTW, I got that by taking the " . " as seperate characters and the " - " as seperate charters you come up with S (. . .), I (. .), E (.); T (-), M (--), M (--) = M Metis/Metis M (M of Mixed blood). There are scores of other possiblities though, it was just interesting.

I noticed that a while back myself but I couldnt make anything out of it.

Very very true.

It looks like 'myriadia' is Finnish.

And look at this!!

Within that SAME newsletter!

"Don't panic" I told myself, Maynard doesn't have internet access or get good cell reception in that submarine-craft of his on the ocean sea-bed, so he probably doesn't even know about the blurb. Still we've got to keep this thing quiet - that is if you want the new Tool record to proceed according to schedule. Even you readers... yes YOU, Tool Collective members with your damn message board and chats (which, fortunately, are probably down), keep your lips sealed. In fact, if you have to discus this with your TA friends, it might be prudent to discreetly tap their shoes with yours using Morse code. Just tap out something like 34D243334D117 and they'll know exactly what you're talking about.

We seriously may have hit on something here...

34D243334D117? Looks like a bar-code number.

GOD.. its like the answer is right in front of our faces but we cant put it together...

I'm trying to figure out what language 'myriadia' is in... Finnish translators aren't finding anything. Kind of frusterating.

It's finnish. I figured out by realizing that the language that has "myradia" in it usually have domain names ending in .fi which is for finland.

kind of like, oh, i don't know,

Since you're working on the hints of the unknown poster on the other forum, have you explored the meaning of 'Silianna' as he mentioned a few times?

But cant you see how leery those track titles are? I mean seriously... there's so much ambiguity surrounding those titles...

I tried, and havent found much yet. Not giving up though.

Why don't you go masturbate and stop putting your awsome opinions into this thread and let us have our fun? Seriously, you don't have to be irritating about it. Just don't post.
We're not working on hints of an unknown poster on some forum, we're working with previous newsletters and messages Blair has posted and translation tools from what the band has already told us. If you haven't noticed, we're not talking about 10,000days.com or whatever that forum is.
Yeah, it is Finnish. I can't find anything that'll translate it, though.

But Oce.. at the same time.. this "unkknown poster" gave us the whole myriad idea.... Maybe Silianna merits some research? I mean everything I find is in French...

hahaha, chill out man.

plus, i can't masturbate... because I'm in your contest. fool.

Maybe. I'm still trying to get a translation for this, though... I like 'Myriadia' as a title... it fits so nicely.


I'm JUST saying it IS irritating when you post like THIS trying tell us everything you KNOW.

Why the hell is Aldaraia "better than any other possible title"? Sounds about as cool as Meteora.

no myriad has already been mentioned here when 10kD was first announced

Because its my opinion and thats how I feel about it?

WHY are you CAPITALIZING random woRDS?

I'm with Oce on this one.

I've always liked Aldaraia, honestly.

Somewhere in the back of my mind, I still hope its real, to be honest.

My post is more convincing than probably any of the fake tracklistings and such posted before.

fleshlight?

I can't get a translation for myriadia in Finnish, so I dunno.

:/

What the hell is going on in here?

I dont appreciate being coupled in with that jerk who is trying to ruin the fun of deciphering this stuff. I think it's good stuff and you guys are on to something by referencing back the newsletters and messages from Blair. However, this entire topic and deciphering quest began from the messages from that "unknown poster" on the "other forum." Hope you guys figure it out though.

it just means "myriad"

http://www.tranexp.com/

and I don't appreciate being called a jerk...

I've helped with this stuff a while, as well... I just found systolic's post of "its like something's staring us in the face" to be a tad ironic

I wasn't coupling you with him, just responding to both of you in the same post.

The thing is, 'myriad' first came up right after Tool announced "10,000 Days" as the album title. That 10,000days.com forum thing is just a coincidence... I'm not looking into this because of that, I'm looking into what Tool has told us so far and what we already know about Tool.

Wish I could find a translation to this word, though :/

myriad dium = 10,000 day

Latin is probly to common though.

I got that too, but I think thats just a crappy translator. Most of the other ones I found returned a 'no match found'.

I was just about to post that diem is Latin for day...

But I dont think it means anything.

I am starting to think that the album name is 10,000 days but not necessarily in modern english.

I third this. Out of all the tracklistings/titles that have surfaced, Aldaraia has been my favorite one. (Although at this point, I'll go for anything that's not "10,000 Days")

Very possible. But... entirely speculative.

what would you expect it to mean other than myriad or myriad days?
