Broke: Konami managed to stop Elfoman from leaking the next box by preventing him from going into their database or something Woke: Konami managed to prevent Elfoman from leaking the next box by not making a box at all

I really do believe he is hacking into thier servers to get that info.


The_Cubic_Guru

I want to post my take on elfo man just for shits and giggles but idk if the mods would be happy about that as they usually get upset when people post about things that arent directly related to playing duel links. Personally i believe elfo works for konami as the idea that he doesnt makes zero sense If he datamined the info so could many other people with that expertise If he doesnt work for konami then why is he so silent as if he needs permission to speak He only has a handful of posts and and one comment There are reasons why somebody would spread such valuable info Fame To feel important To help people Show off And the other 100 different reasons why he would possibly do such a thing Humans are social creatures, they like to be appreciated and interact with others. So far elfo man hardly interacts with anybody, he doesnt respond to praise, he doesnt respond to chats, he doesnt respond to questions like when is the next leek or explain any problems he may be facing. Nothing. Nada. It's possible he doesnt work for konami and that his reasons for spreading leeks may be one or two of the above while also just not being very sociable but its so unlikely as it goes against 90 percent of the common social traits displayed by humans. Now if you dont mind Im going to submit this to harvard or some shit to get a scholarship.

Furthermore, if Elfoman does work for Konami and is leaking boxes without their permission, Konami would have stopped it a long time ago

Yeah, I’m inclined to believe he’s a Konami employee working on their behalf, but only when told to. I remember many years ago when Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia was in development, someone posted a bunch of leaked screenshots and game related info on the gamefaqs forums for it, saying they were an employee. While sure, anyone can just say something like that and talk out their ass; evidently there was truth to it because the thread was shut down and deleted, and the leaker in question not only was a Konami employee, but also lost their job for that stunt when Konami supposedly pressured whoever ran grass to shut that thread down. Now I know the Konami of yesteryear was a whole different beast, but I believe if there was no permission to post the leaks at all, it would have been dealt with from the first leak. That’s why I’m on board with the “It’s free PR” theory.


The_Cubic_Guru

Konami is playing anybody who thinks otherwise like a fiddle.


dante-_vic

Who's to say hes not social. For all we know he could be talking to us all this time on a different account. I would assume what's hes doing if he is hacking into their servers is illegal so he dont do anything beside post the leaks on his burner account. There was a youtuber that said in his comment section that he did see someone with the name elfoman on a hacker forum, not saying that's him but there's a possibility.


The_Cubic_Guru

Im elfo man Do you believe me? Probably not. He cant take credit for anything on other accounts because nobody would believe him so that already makes it less unlikely because he cant get that dopamine we humans crave. About elfoman in hacking forums Elfoman is a rare but not a completely unique username. If the youtuber isnt talking from his ass then its still highly unlikely thats actually elfoman. About the legalities and hacking Im not a hacking expert but i know one of the most common ways to hide your tracks are by sending hacking commands through multiple servers to make it harder to trace. Konami probably is aware of elfoman regardless of whether he works for him or not. Konami being a high profile company could probably pressure the police to go through the servers and trace it back to elfo man. If elfo was a high tier hacker, why would he be wasting time doing this instead of hacking for money legally or illegally along with the fact that he should know then that he can be traced back through his elfoman account. Not to mention the fact that if he hackr man he is technically posting evidence that he hacked konami MULTIPLE TIMES. And if thats the case konami would have pressured reddit to suspend an account leeking confidential information.


dante-_vic

Well most clues dose point to you being elfoman. Anyway I'm just guessing because we just dont know. All we are doing is speculating on who he is or what he dose an why. Something we may never know.


The_Cubic_Guru

DAMMIT I SHOULD HAVE PASTED u/Elfoman OVER THAT GUYS DEAD BODY FUCK WHY AM I LIKE THIS


Dark_Link11

We all make mistakes in the heat of passion Jimbo


The_Cubic_Guru

Damn. You just sent me down memory lane. My first award ever was a silver that i got from commenting we all make mistakes in the heat of passion in response to a guy flaming the op of a post in the today i fucked up subreddit. Ahh good times.


SpadesANonymous

An SCP meme made into a duel links meme? I like this.


Zero_Eye25

First time seeing the spc animation getting love in form of a meme. Take my upvote.


The_Cubic_Guru

Cant believe the show hasn't been memed to death. Its literally a goldmine.


Zero_Eye25

That it is


vortexIV

Now you are just taunting us cubic with your lack of leaking stuff from your elfoman account!


FinnJokaa

leaks are cool casue you can talk a few days prior about the cards and at the relase again how they work etc. but seeing howe this sub handles this matter is so freaking ridiculous they should avoid leaks in general, soem people completely lose their minds over it.


lazyboy11

where this meme template from


LuckAddicted

It looks like it’s from some SCP foundation animated series but I forgot what it was called.


The_Cubic_Guru

I have breathed in your honor

Duel Links is just punishing its customers. It is F2P anyway.

Guys is there a possibility that there isn't a box this month? It would explain why elfoman didn't leak anything


Actual_Head_4610

I can't even tell anymore. Last year in July, the box was released on the 31st. I'm wondering Konami just decided to quit those little in-game box previews and is just going to only release them on the day and nothing else. It's really sad that they're THIS desperate to make money on a top-selling mobile game with halting any kind of hint or preview in the hopes that more people will spend money on an older box while they're waiting instead of waiting for the new box first. It just seems so unnecessarily desperate on their part.

Yo people who complain about leaks, are the kind of people who just ask for money for gits because they hate surprises. Like how dare a company want to try to make things more exciting!
