  1. [13:09:36] <Radeusgd> hello
  2. [13:13:12] --> monocle ([email protected]) has joined #breaking32865
  3. [13:13:13] *** Mode #breaking32865 +qo monocle monocle by ChanServ
  4. [13:13:17] <monocle> Hey.
  5. [13:13:58] <monocle> Helooo?
  6. [13:15:32] *** Mode #breaking32865 +v Radeusgd by monocle
  7. [13:15:38] <Radeusgd> hi
  8. [13:15:47] <monocle> Hullo.
  9. [13:16:01] <monocle> I just posted on the subreddit the IRC details.
  10. [13:16:23] <Radeusgd> ok
  11. [13:16:45] <monocle> Any ideas on a01 codes?
  12. [13:17:19] <Radeusgd> well, I got one, but it might be too simple to work
  13. [13:17:23] <Radeusgd> the idea is following
  14. [13:17:40] <Radeusgd> the code consists of 2 rows - one in range 0-9 and second in 1-3
  15. [13:17:55] <Radeusgd> all messages contained letters, so I assume this one does so too
  16. [13:18:03] <monocle> i see,
  17. [13:18:07] <Radeusgd> but there's ~26 letters in alphabet
  18. [13:18:12] <Radeusgd> and 3*9 is 27
  19. [13:18:26] <monocle> special characters i guess?
  20. [13:18:36] <Radeusgd> so my idea is that maybe if we multiply numbers in each column we might get numbers in range 0-27 which is close to letters
  21. [13:18:38] <Radeusgd> yeah
  22. [13:18:56] <monocle> hmm i see.
  23. [13:18:58] <Radeusgd> the problem is, it might be shifted, like A = 5, B=6 etc.
  24. [13:19:06] <monocle> We should focus on the a01 ping.
  25. [13:19:21] <Radeusgd> I'll write a Python script to test all combinations after I finish some task I got to do
  26. [13:19:24] <monocle> I have a feeling that it's a01 for "i am alive"
  27. [13:19:27] <monocle> ok.
  28. [13:19:36] <Radeusgd> yeah, I think it could be that
  29. [13:19:51] <Radeusgd> we can check all of them, given we have a script
  30. [13:20:01] <monocle> 8017019843
  31. [13:20:01] <monocle> 1323322111
  32. [13:20:06] <monocle> wait
  33. [13:20:14] <monocle> 80170198431323322111
  34. [13:20:39] <monocle> crap line carriages suck in this client.
  35. [13:20:44] <Radeusgd> hah xD
  36. [13:20:47] <Radeusgd> but I got it
  37. [13:20:49] <Radeusgd> hmm
  38. [13:20:54] <Radeusgd> oh man
  39. [13:20:56] <Radeusgd> we got it!!!
  40. [13:21:02] <monocle> Hmm?
  41. [13:21:02] <Radeusgd> see - 0 means space
  42. [13:21:09] <monocle> yea
  43. [13:21:12] <Radeusgd> x xx xxxxx
  44. [13:21:15] <monocle> I is 8
  45. [13:21:15] <Radeusgd> I am alive
  46. [13:21:18] <Radeusgd> yeah
  47. [13:21:19] <Radeusgd> and a is 1
  48. [13:21:21] <Radeusgd> it matches
  49. [13:21:25] <Radeusgd> just it's some strange cipher
  50. [13:21:30] <Radeusgd> but we got enough info to decode it
  51. [13:21:32] <monocle> What's the other half though?
  52. [13:21:36] <monocle> yea we do.
  53. [13:21:37] <Radeusgd> just gotta figure out that
  54. [13:21:56] <Radeusgd> I suppose it might be for multiplication as i said
  55. [13:22:02] <Radeusgd> so 8 is I and 16 is A
  56. [13:22:14] --> GeoffreyY ([email protected]) has joined #breaking32865
  57. [13:22:32] <monocle> so..
  58. [13:22:46] <monocle> 8017019843
  59. [13:22:46] <monocle> 1323322111
  60. [13:22:48] <Radeusgd> I think multiplication might be the key, however letters seem not to beshifted, but rather hmm maybe somethign like XOR cipher but with letters, not sure
  61. [13:22:52] <monocle> i am alive
  62. [13:23:04] <Radeusgd> it reads i am alive for sure
  63. [13:23:16] <Radeusgd> just we need to figure out the key, and decrypt other messages
  64. [13:23:18] <monocle> maybe the second row indicates the position in the table?
  65. [13:23:28] <Radeusgd> but what table?
  66. [13:23:40] <monocle> the space always read as 0.3
  67. [13:23:40] <monocle> IDK
  68. [13:23:51] <Radeusgd> yeah, and A is always 8.2
  69. [13:23:54] <monocle> A is 1.2
  70. [13:24:10] <Radeusgd> sorry, yes
  71. [13:24:12] <Radeusgd> I mean I
  72. [13:24:21] <Radeusgd> is 8.1
  73. [13:24:34] <monocle> So it's using a table.
  74. [13:24:54] <Radeusgd> but if second is a coordinate, how do we know al the rows?
  75. [13:25:12] <Radeusgd> I'd go for multiplicaation, because you need to represent 26(27 - 0 is space) letters
  76. [13:25:21] <Radeusgd> but it might not be the solution
  77. [13:25:22] <monocle> Yeah.
  78. [13:25:23] <Radeusgd> hmm
  79. [13:25:24] <monocle> I guess
  80. [13:25:41] <monocle> notepad
  81. [13:25:50] <Radeusgd> ?
  82. [13:25:52] <monocle> wrong text box.
  83. [13:26:15] <Radeusgd> I see xD
  84. [13:26:57] <monocle> wait lemme pull another a01 post
  85. [13:27:05] <Radeusgd> ok
  86. [13:27:08] <monocle> and do a compare with the ping.
  87. [13:27:18] <Radeusgd> I'll try out the script in ~10 mins, gotta finish some document
  88. [13:27:30] <Radeusgd> yeah, we can do it this way indeed
  89. [13:27:37] <Radeusgd> wait, got something
  90. [13:27:39] <monocle> ok
  91. [13:27:49] <monocle> The subreddit name is a01
  92. [13:27:51] <monocle> 328657982131321212
  93. [13:27:52] <Radeusgd> maybe this 2 numbers are to form one 2 digit number
  94. [13:28:17] <Radeusgd> like A = 82, space = 03 (or 30) and A is 28 etc.
  95. [13:28:59] <monocle> I see.
  96. [13:30:03] <monocle> I don't have enough letters. >.<
  97. [13:30:52] <Radeusgd> yeah
  98. [13:31:18] <Radeusgd> I'll look into it, I was once playing with NSA Crypto Challenge app and it involved a taks nearly the same as A01 is
  99. [13:32:39] <monocle> nice.
  100. [13:35:56] <monocle> is there some famous arrangement of letters or something? That's 10x3?
  101. [13:36:29] <Radeusgd> well, I don't know anything about such a thing, so I suppose no
  102. [13:36:48] <Radeusgd> but it could work, because it's the only logical way to convert 2 numbers in such ranges into letters
  103. [13:38:17] <monocle> Oh craaap
  104. [13:38:20] <monocle> KB
  105. [13:38:24] <monocle> KB: EN US
  106. [13:38:39] <monocle> EN US keyboard?
  107. [13:38:51] <monocle> it's a freaking 10x3 table
  108. [13:38:56] <Radeusgd> well
  109. [13:39:03] <Radeusgd> you're completely right!!
  110. [13:39:17] <monocle> i is top row below 8
  111. [13:39:31] <monocle> a is second row below 1
  112. [13:39:44] <monocle> 03 is supposed to be / then
  113. [13:39:46] <Radeusgd> you're right
  114. [13:40:03] <Radeusgd> I was doing it other way - A is the 8th element backwards from L counting from 0 xD
  115. [13:40:18] <Radeusgd> not sure which is more right, but still, it's probably the answer
  116. [13:40:25] <Radeusgd> gotta check it out
  117. [13:40:43] <monocle> oh man.
  118. [13:41:31] <GeoffreyY> PING [A01] reads "i am alire"
  119. [13:41:37] <Radeusgd> alire?
  120. [13:41:38] <monocle> lol
  121. [13:41:41] <monocle> idk.
  122. [13:41:52] <Radeusgd> maybe you need to count columns in reverse?
  123. [13:41:52] <GeoffreyY> they messed up I assume
  124. [13:41:57] <Radeusgd> because V would match then
  125. [13:42:15] <monocle> hmm. lets see.
  126. [13:42:34] <monocle> I'm curently solving random a01
  127. [13:43:02] <Radeusgd> ok
  128. [13:43:29] <GeoffreyY> 49212-11322 [A01] reads "range nine nine nine to one fire seren"
  129. [13:43:37] <Radeusgd> wow
  130. [13:43:41] <Radeusgd> we're onto something
  131. [13:43:42] <GeoffreyY> all "v"s turned into "r"s lol
  132. [13:43:47] <Radeusgd> huh
  133. [13:43:51] <monocle> zerotso ovganic vandom
  134. [13:43:55] <monocle> i know.
  135. [13:44:06] <monocle> that's random a01
  136. [13:44:42] <Radeusgd> you're right that v is messed with r
  137. [13:44:44] <Radeusgd> but it works
  138. [13:44:51] <monocle> i know.
  139. [13:45:10] <monocle> unless he's talking with a different accent.
  140. [13:45:15] <Radeusgd> xD
  141. [13:45:31] <Radeusgd> should I write a decoding program?
  142. [13:45:59] <monocle> IDK.
  143. [13:46:07] <GeoffreyY> correction: Random [A01] reads "zerotwo organic random"
  144. [13:46:09] <monocle> Let's race who gets to write one first?
  145. [13:46:12] <Radeusgd> xD
  146. [13:46:13] <GeoffreyY> they missed a space
  147. [13:46:15] <monocle> ohh.
  148. [13:46:16] <Radeusgd> ok
  149. [13:46:22] <monocle> hahha
  150. [13:47:04] <monocle> You should go ahead. I wanna decode them by hand. Hahaha
  151. [13:47:04] <GeoffreyY> monocle you should post this on reddit now
  152. [13:47:14] <Radeusgd> ok
  153. [13:47:14] <monocle> yea.
  154. [13:47:25] <GeoffreyY> afterall it's you who figured this out :)
  155. [13:47:31] <monocle> Nah.
  156. [13:47:35] <monocle> XD
  157. [13:47:57] <monocle> Lemme decode every string there first.
  158. [13:48:49] <monocle> the subreddit's title reads as "exingulis"
  159. [13:48:53] <Radeusgd> wow
  160. [13:49:17] <monocle> Google doesn't return on anything
  161. [13:49:33] <GeoffreyY> wait, what's 01?
  162. [13:49:43] <monocle> What 01?
  163. [13:49:57] <GeoffreyY> in Entropy [A01]
  164. [13:50:06] <GeoffreyY> there's a 01
  165. [13:50:07] <Radeusgd> I'm currently writing the script
  166. [13:50:53] <monocle> ok. The subreddit's title reads 0497335-1112131 REF:328657982
  167. [13:51:47] <GeoffreyY> Entropy [A01] reads "zeroone deci.hering requires entropy", where the fullstop is 01
  168. [13:51:58] <monocle> Decoded: PROJECT REF:EXINGULIS
  169. [13:52:19] <GeoffreyY> nvm 01 is p
  170. [13:52:23] <monocle> haha
  171. [13:55:36] <Radeusgd> got a program
  172. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> tab = [
  173. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> ['q','w','e','v','t','y','u','i','o','p'],

  176. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> ]
  177. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> print tab[1][2]
  178. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> num1 = raw_input("1:")
  179. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> num2 = raw_input("2:")
  180. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> decode = ""
  181. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> for i in range(0, len(num1)):
  182. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> x = int(num2[i])-1
  183. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> y = int(num1[i])-1
  184. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> if y==-1:
  185. [13:55:37] <Radeusgd> y=9
  186. [13:55:38] <Radeusgd> decode+=tab[x][y]
  187. [13:55:38] <Radeusgd>
  188. [13:55:38] <Radeusgd> print decode
  189. [13:56:23] <monocle> pastebin it!
  190. [13:56:31] <Radeusgd> kay
  191. [13:56:58] <Radeusgd> http://pastebin.com/jus2PZrN
  192. [13:57:00] <monocle> the fire mod is decoded to secre(t)? the T doesn't have a second character to it.
  193. [13:57:06] <monocle> *first
  194. [13:57:20] <Radeusgd> I'll work on it in a moment, gotta go to a shop
  195. [13:57:32] <monocle> ok
  196. [13:58:22] <monocle> Geez, the encryption in really simple. Were just thinking diffirently.
  197. [14:00:43] <monocle> TimeA01 reads as local/eavth/time
  198. [14:01:00] <monocle> "local/eavth/time" so it's just the time. Albeit inaccurately. XD
  199. [14:04:43] --> SN4T14 ([email protected]) has joined #breaking32865
  200. [14:04:53] <SN4T14> 'Sup
  201. [14:04:57] <GeoffreyY> hi
  202. [14:05:15] <monocle> Hello.
  203. [14:05:16] <GeoffreyY> we just figured out [A01]
  204. [14:05:20] <monocle> Yay!
  205. [14:05:33] <SN4T14> Yeah, just noticed, decoding everything noq
  206. [14:05:35] <SN4T14> now*
  207. [14:05:38] <monocle> The time post is actually the current time.
  208. [14:05:41] <monocle> local/eavth/time
  209. [14:06:35] <GeoffreyY> PING [A03][024] should also read "i am alive" (hopefully with no errors)
  210. [14:07:41] <SN4T14> Hmm, weird, the user "233435-21311" decodes correctly if R and V are correct, but PING [A01] requires R and V to be reversed...
  211. [14:07:54] <monocle> Yea
  212. [14:08:00] <monocle> They messed up for some reason.
  213. [14:08:05] <monocle> Or they have a strange accent.
  214. [14:08:37] <GeoffreyY> v and r are switched vandomly it seems
  215. [14:09:07] <monocle> i know vight?
  216. [14:09:31] <Radeusgd> yeah, that's stvange
  217. [14:09:51] <SN4T14> veally veally veivd
  218. [14:09:58] <monocle> Second Mod translates to AXON
  219. [14:09:59] <SN4T14> reivd*
  220. [14:10:32] <Radeusgd> let's put all messages into one place
  221. [14:10:35] <monocle> Does anybody have a copy of the sidebar with A01 codes?
  222. [14:10:36] <Radeusgd> I can do it again
  223. [14:10:38] <monocle> Ok ok/
  224. [14:10:47] <Radeusgd> good question, I don't have unfortunately
  225. [14:10:53] <monocle> nice job with the script btw.
  226. [14:10:57] <SN4T14> Looks like 49212-11322 decodes to almost-correct instructions for A02
  227. [14:11:11] <monocle> yea it it does.

  239. [14:12:35] <SN4T14> 018 was mentioned in some of the MD5s
  240. [14:12:36] <monocle> It's been halved to fit the sidebar i guess. XD
  241. [14:12:58] <SN4T14> Also, monocle, are you sure you're not the guy and you're just dropping hints because no one got the A01 encryption? :p
  242. [14:13:10] <monocle> wat?
  243. [14:13:20] <Radeusgd> no xD
  244. [14:13:29] <Radeusgd> I don't think that's the case
  245. [14:13:38] <monocle> XD
  246. [14:14:07] <monocle> I can code. But i'm not that much of a genius when it comes to cryptography. XD
  247. [14:14:49] <Radeusgd> nah, you're pretty good
  248. [14:15:02] <SN4T14> How do we know you're not just saying that to hide the fact that I'm correct? :O
  249. [14:15:15] <monocle> IDK. how can I prove myself?
  250. [14:16:43] <SN4T14> ...That's just your problem. :p
  251. [14:17:15] <Radeusgd> I'm just finishing the overview of messages from A01
  252. [14:17:44] <monocle> I can't prove that. I can't think of a way.
  253. [14:17:58] <monocle> Oh well. >.<
  254. [14:18:19] <SN4T14> By the way, the Time[A01][011] time is in around 36 hours
  255. [14:18:36] <SN4T14> http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=63534748444+seconds+since+january+1+1
  256. [14:19:14] <Radeusgd> whaat
  257. [14:19:22] <Radeusgd> I thought it's in September
  258. [14:19:34] <monocle> I was the current time then.
  259. [14:19:35] <Radeusgd> but you seem to be right
  260. [14:20:03] <Radeusgd> wow
  261. [14:20:09] <SN4T14> Yeah, the website that said September was way off
  262. [14:20:11] <monocle> *it
  263. [14:20:16] <monocle> lol.
  264. [14:20:16] <Radeusgd> yeah
  265. [14:20:53] <SN4T14> Just felt weird to schedule something months in advance, because it's been pretty fast-paced, so I Wolfram Alpha'd it and got that
  266. [14:21:16] <Radeusgd> yeah
  267. [14:21:17] <Radeusgd> also
  268. [14:21:29] <SN4T14> I got something!
  269. [14:21:37] <Radeusgd> the Transition has accurate explanation of A02
  270. [14:21:45] <Radeusgd> so A03 could be explained in A02 too
  271. [14:22:20] <monocle> the the 20 post.
  272. [14:22:45] <SN4T14> God damn it
  273. [14:22:49] <SN4T14> https://i.imgur.com/jVpgshJ.png
  274. [14:22:55] <SN4T14> 3rd row of boxes
  275. [14:22:58] <monocle> oh right.
  276. [14:23:01] <SN4T14> 1:9630234360282
  277. [14:23:01] <SN4T14> 2:1313211133213
  278. [14:23:02] <monocle> where
  279. [14:23:13] <SN4T14> That's just "one/seven/six"
  280. [14:23:15] <monocle> cant see i.
  281. [14:23:20] <Radeusgd> where?
  282. [14:23:20] <SN4T14> Kind of hard to see, open it in Notepad and zoom in
  283. [14:23:25] <SN4T14> 3rd row, all the boxes
  284. [14:23:34] <monocle> Ohh
  285. [14:23:40] <monocle> you have to tolt your monitor
  286. [14:23:42] <monocle> *tilt
  287. [14:23:55] <monocle> it's really faint.
  288. [14:23:57] <SN4T14> Yeah, can up the contrast, too
  289. [14:24:06] <SN4T14> Sad that it's nothing new
  290. [14:24:10] <Radeusgd> yeah
  291. [14:24:13] <monocle> What does it say?
  292. [14:24:14] <Radeusgd> but that means
  293. [14:24:20] <Radeusgd> we may got clues for A03
  294. [14:24:46] <Radeusgd> loi;cdeper
  295. [14:24:46] <Radeusgd> huh??
  296. [14:25:15] <SN4T14> Hidden thing says "one/seven/six"
  297. [14:25:33] <Radeusgd> I made the summary
  298. [14:25:34] <Radeusgd> http://www.reddit.com/r/Solving_A858/comments/24jbmk/summary_of_r/
  299. [14:25:36] <monocle> the white text dosnt match up.
  300. [14:25:53] <monocle> The first half only has 10 characters.
  301. [14:25:58] <monocle> the seond has 11.
  302. [14:25:59] <Radeusgd> well yeah
  303. [14:26:00] <Radeusgd> but
  304. [14:26:00] <monocle> *second
  305. [14:26:06] <Radeusgd> the message 49212...
  306. [14:26:11] <Radeusgd> translates to roxas
  307. [14:26:13] <Radeusgd> and content
  308. [14:26:19] <Radeusgd> is range 999 to 175
  309. [14:26:27] <Radeusgd> sorry 157
  310. [14:26:44] <monocle> I wonder what's the two boxes for.
  311. [14:26:51] <SN4T14> Radeusgd: add the thing hidden in KEY
  312. [14:26:55] <SN4T14> The one I found. :p
  313. [14:27:00] <Radeusgd> ok
  314. [14:27:18] <Radeusgd> describe it, cos I still didnt find it xD
  315. [14:27:24] <monocle> ohh. look closely on the left most of the white text/
  316. [14:27:28] <Radeusgd> kay
  317. [14:27:34] <monocle> tthere's a hidden nine.
  318. [14:27:59] <SN4T14> look/deeper
  319. [14:28:11] <Radeusgd> I cannot see
  320. [14:28:13] <Radeusgd> :/
  321. [14:28:16] <SN4T14> Basically just hinting at the thing I found
  322. [14:28:20] <monocle> yea
  323. [14:28:25] <SN4T14> Radeusgd: There's a really faint 9 at the start
  324. [14:28:39] <Radeusgd> gimme a sec in an editor
  325. [14:28:41] <GeoffreyY> http://i.imgur.com/TPIqh6A.png
  326. [14:28:44] <monocle> it's 999 instead of just 99
  327. [14:29:17] <Radeusgd> huhuhuhuhu
  328. [14:29:19] <Radeusgd> gimme a sec
  329. [14:29:24] <Radeusgd> found sth
  330. [14:29:28] <monocle> your title says history of /r/
  331. [14:29:47] <monocle> wait
  332. [14:29:48] <Radeusgd> yeah, forgot to add :( cannot change
  333. [14:29:51] <Radeusgd> need to ask mods
  334. [14:29:56] <Radeusgd> look at this
  335. [14:29:56] <Radeusgd> https://imgur.com/0vfKylx
  336. [14:30:01] <Radeusgd> there's even more numbers there
  337. [14:30:01] <SN4T14> Can't ask the mods either
  338. [14:30:10] <SN4T14> No one, not even admins, can change post titles. ;)
  339. [14:30:24] <monocle> XP
  340. [14:30:32] <SN4T14> Yeah, Radeusgd, those are the ones I was talking about. :p
  341. [14:30:41] <monocle> test
  342. [14:30:50] <SN4T14> Testies
  343. [14:30:54] <Radeusgd> I think mods can
  344. [14:31:00] <SN4T14> Nope
  345. [14:31:16] <Radeusgd> are you sure? I saw something about this
  346. [14:31:17] <monocle> my router just glitched. I can't open the link.
  347. [14:31:22] <monocle> back.
  348. [14:31:28] <Radeusgd> in one of the rows, there are more letters
  349. [14:31:40] <SN4T14> Yeah, Radeusgd, that's what I was talking about before. :p
  350. [14:31:44] <SN4T14> one/seven/six
  351. [14:32:26] <monocle> wait. has anyone decoded the latest a02 post?
  352. [14:32:43] <Radeusgd> which one
  353. [14:32:45] <Radeusgd> I think I did
  354. [14:33:14] <SN4T14> Yeah
  355. [14:33:17] <Radeusgd> Yes, I did it up to 27
  356. [14:33:20] <Radeusgd> brb, dinner
  357. [14:34:52] --> Fanarito ([email protected]) has joined #breaking32865
  358. [14:35:04] <GeoffreyY> hi
  359. [14:35:10] <Fanarito> Hi
  360. [14:35:12] <monocle> The last two lines intrigues me.
  361. [14:35:20] <SN4T14> God damn it, people right next to me joining me! D:
  362. [14:35:28] <monocle> A026: cannot access a03 nei
  363. [14:35:28] <monocle> A027: 026/ the key before the last is the start/ work your way backwards
  364. [14:35:28] <monocle> A026: cannot access a03 nei
  365. [14:35:28] <monocle> A027: 026/ the key before the last is the start/ work your way backwards
  366. [14:35:28] <monocle> A026: cannot access a03 nei
  367. [14:35:31] <monocle> Wtf
  368. [14:35:38] <monocle> the client bugged.
  369. [14:35:46] <GeoffreyY> lol
  370. [14:35:49] <SN4T14> Radeusgd: your post is missing A22-25
  371. [14:36:03] <SN4T14> And the duplicate IDs
  372. [14:36:26] <monocle> 22-25 are A03s.
  373. [14:36:30] <SN4T14> Oh right
  374. [14:37:43] <GeoffreyY> what is that [019] pic
  375. [14:37:45] <monocle> I'm confused about the a027 post.
  376. [14:37:56] <monocle> noidea.
  377. [14:38:03] <monocle> It's the eiffel tower.
  378. [14:38:09] <monocle> Nope.
  379. [14:38:11] <monocle> wrong pic.
  380. [14:38:35] <monocle> It's a building in canada.
  381. [14:38:39] <SN4T14> [19] is that place in the town everyone thought of
  382. [14:38:40] <monocle> supposedly.
  383. [14:38:51] <monocle> what town?
  384. [14:39:57] <SN4T14> Toronto!
  385. [14:40:03] <SN4T14> That's a building in Toronto
  386. [14:40:43] <monocle> Someone figured it out a while ago.
  387. [14:40:57] <SN4T14> Yeah, just didn't remember the name of it. :p
  388. [14:41:39] <monocle> Lemme scan the old posts.
  389. [14:42:12] <monocle> Toronto Flatiron Building
  390. [14:42:20] <SN4T14> That's the one
  391. [14:42:25] <SN4T14> Someone was talking about going there today
  392. [14:42:39] <monocle> Yea.
  393. [14:43:15] <monocle> What about the eiffel tower though? Do we have anyone on paris? XD
  394. [14:43:36] <GeoffreyY> I guess it has to do with setting the time zone of the Time[A01][011]?
  395. [14:44:30] <SN4T14> Timezone says "earth time" so I'm going to guess UTC
  396. [14:44:45] <monocle> yea.
  397. [14:45:09] <Radeusgd> I'm back
  398. [14:45:27] <SN4T14> Welcome back!
  399. [14:45:48] <Radeusgd> well, 22-25 are missing, because there are none such posts in A02, they're in A03
  400. [14:46:07] <SN4T14> Yeah
  401. [14:46:21] <GeoffreyY> we should start cracking [A03]
  402. [14:46:26] <Radeusgd> yeah
  403. [14:46:42] <Radeusgd> also, if someone would be to go to ET in paris, what would that give us?
  404. [14:47:13] <monocle> IDK
  405. [14:48:29] <monocle> It's clear that the last few posts are instructions to get to the next encryption.
  406. [14:48:34] <Radeusgd> yeah
  407. [14:48:48] <SN4T14> [008] still hasn't been explained, though...
  408. [14:48:48] <GeoffreyY> assume PING [A03][024] reads "I am alive"
  409. [14:49:12] <Radeusgd> btw. monocle, how do you know the name of project if it only has the first part?
  410. [14:49:31] <monocle> wat?
  411. [14:49:46] <monocle> it's the same as the subreddit link
  412. [14:49:59] <monocle> but without the second half.
  413. [14:50:26] <SN4T14> Also, GeoffreyY, wouldn't that be [A03][022]?
  414. [14:51:10] <GeoffreyY> [024] says "PING" on the title...
  415. [14:51:22] <SN4T14> Ah
  416. [14:51:35] <Radeusgd> got it (the name)
  417. [14:52:08] <monocle> here http://imgur.com/ztsgUy0.png
  418. [14:52:09] <GeoffreyY> I'm confused how both "ceb0" and "b7c2" translates to "a"
  419. [14:52:51] <SN4T14> If [024] is "i am alive" then it's two letters too long
  420. [14:52:58] <monocle> maybe it's using random numbers again?
  421. [14:53:01] <GeoffreyY> spaces?
  422. [14:53:05] <SN4T14> Oh right
  423. [14:53:34] <SN4T14> But it might be that it does something with the previous (or next, as seen by [027]) letter
  424. [14:54:12] <SN4T14> My first guess would just be a simple bitwise XOR of the last one with the current one
  425. [14:54:38] <Radeusgd> well length of 024 seems to match ping
  426. [14:55:01] <SN4T14> Yeah, I'd try xoring the first and 2nd one, then the 2nd and 3rd one, and so on
  427. [14:55:06] <monocle> yea. that's what I observed a while ago.
  428. [14:55:10] <Radeusgd> but don't they differ in length?
  429. [14:55:21] <monocle> it says the second of the last.
  430. [14:55:49] <monocle> I mean the key before the last.
  431. [14:56:11] <Radeusgd> ah yeah
  432. [14:56:11] <SN4T14> What if L2F means last to front/first?
  433. [14:56:33] <SN4T14> That would explain 026
  434. [14:56:38] <Radeusgd> what program do you use for xoring?
  435. [14:56:40] <SN4T14> 027*
  436. [14:56:46] <monocle> hmm.
  437. [14:56:50] <SN4T14> http://www.jdejong.net/tools/bitwisecalculator.php
  438. [14:57:43] <monocle> last to front does sound like it fits the context.
  439. [14:57:50] <Radeusgd> yeah
  440. [14:57:55] <SN4T14> I think I got it, first one decodes to /
  441. [14:58:02] <Radeusgd> ?
  442. [14:58:04] <Radeusgd> to what
  443. [14:59:21] <monocle> what?
  444. [14:59:32] <SN4T14> To /
  445. [14:59:39] <SN4T14> Literally just a slash, then a | (pipe)
  446. [14:59:48] <SN4T14> And then an unprintable character, but now I have an F
  447. [14:59:56] <Radeusgd> huh
  448. [14:59:58] <SN4T14> Hang on, let me finish decoding and see if it's anything...
  449. [15:00:07] <Radeusgd> ok
  450. [15:00:29] <SN4T14> Seems to just be lucky garbage
  451. [15:00:40] <Radeusgd> :/
  452. [15:01:02] <SN4T14> Damn
  453. [15:01:11] <monocle> The first two are easy, but this is wracking my brains.
  454. [15:02:29] <Radeusgd> yeah
  455. [15:03:09] <monocle> has anyone looked uopn the profile post?
  456. [15:03:16] <SN4T14> Profile post?
  457. [15:03:16] <Radeusgd> it's really strange
  458. [15:04:07] <Radeusgd> well, xyz is clearly some coordinate, by what are C LGr G??
  459. [15:04:08] <monocle> Someone theorized that it might be some space coordinates.
  460. [15:04:18] <Radeusgd> LGr like lagrange?
  461. [15:04:27] <Radeusgd> by space you mean math or cosmos?
  462. [15:04:29] <monocle> lol idk.
  463. [15:04:36] <Radeusgd> wait!
  464. [15:04:39] <monocle> I thought of space.
  465. [15:04:40] <Radeusgd> theses are messages
  466. [15:05:03] <Radeusgd> rirgo
  467. [15:05:19] <Radeusgd> local/myg
  468. [15:05:19] <monocle> Rirgo?
  469. [15:05:27] <Radeusgd> that's translated from Profile
  470. [15:05:27] <monocle> it's either virgo or rirgo.
  471. [15:05:30] <-- Fanarito ([email protected]) has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)
  472. [15:05:32] <Radeusgd> virgo
  473. [15:05:34] <Radeusgd> of course!
  474. [15:05:40] <Radeusgd> that makes much sense, you know - space
  475. [15:05:50] <monocle> Uhh.
  476. [15:06:16] <SN4T14> Brb, changing classrooms
  477. [15:06:22] <monocle> ok
  478. [15:06:32] <SN4T14> Could someone log all the messages while I'm away? :p
  479. [15:07:08] <monocle> sure.
  480. [15:07:10] <Radeusgd> Remember the time when you left and I can pastebin them
  481. [15:07:20] <SN4T14> Mkay
  482. [15:07:23] <SN4T14> What's the time now?
  483. [15:07:27] <monocle> G reads: local myg
  484. [15:07:32] <monocle> 907
  485. [15:07:40] <monocle> 9.07 pm
  486. [15:07:45] <monocle> oh lol this is my time.
  487. [15:07:46] <SN4T14> Then everything from now. :p
  488. [15:07:49] <monocle> yea
  489. [15:08:21] <Radeusgd> for me it's 15:06
  490. [15:08:29] <Radeusgd> ok
  491. [15:08:40] <Radeusgd> also, yeah, I wrote in summary it's local/myg
  492. [15:08:50] <monocle> so what's local myg?
  493. [15:08:54] <Radeusgd> no idea
  494. [15:09:10] <-- SN4T14 ([email protected]) has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)
  495. [15:09:45] <monocle> So here's the summary. It might be space coordinates.
  496. [15:09:56] <monocle> With virgo as C
  497. [15:10:07] <monocle> WTF is a Sa anyway?
  498. [15:10:08] <Radeusgd> added
  499. [15:10:21] <Radeusgd> well, also when we set something in space
  500. [15:10:32] <Radeusgd> we don't specify cartesian system but spherical coords
  501. [15:10:51] <Radeusgd> so XYZ makes no sense without the point of reference
  502. [15:11:10] <Radeusgd> hmm, maybe LGr means L2 Lagrangian point?
  503. [15:11:28] <monocle> Not sure.
  504. [15:11:46] <Radeusgd> hmm https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/s%C3%A4 ?
  505. [15:12:49] <monocle> So it's finnish for I?
  506. [15:12:51] <Radeusgd> maybe the reverse means to reverse endianness?
  507. [15:12:55] <Radeusgd> for you I think
  508. [15:13:38] <monocle> I'm not sure.
  509. [15:14:30] <monocle> You should read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgo_Supercluster
  510. [15:15:06] <Radeusgd> wowowo
  511. [15:15:12] <Radeusgd> C (cluster) virgo
  512. [15:15:17] <Radeusgd> LGr - local group - 02
  513. [15:15:20] <Radeusgd> G (galaxy?)
  514. [15:15:24] <Radeusgd> local/myg
  515. [15:15:31] <monocle> local milky way?
  516. [15:15:33] <Radeusgd> milky way galaxy, my galaxy?
  517. [15:16:01] <monocle> So it's referring to something in this galaxy.
  518. [15:16:06] <Radeusgd> probably
  519. [15:16:13] <Radeusgd> but still the coordinate format is wrong
  520. [15:16:20] <Radeusgd> what XYZ means in space?
  521. [15:16:52] <monocle> I guess they're refering to an aboslute point in space? But..
  522. [15:17:03] <Radeusgd> https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090604044511AAHGxqI
  523. [15:17:09] <monocle> XYZ can't exist in space!
  524. [15:17:16] <Radeusgd> space engineers use reference of (0,0,0) as the sun
  525. [15:17:19] <Radeusgd> (sol)
  526. [15:17:37] <monocle> i see.
  527. [15:17:47] <Radeusgd> it may be that system
  528. [15:17:55] <monocle> So the reference might be the center of the super cluster or the galaxy.
  529. [15:17:59] <Radeusgd> http://www.iers.org/IERS/EN/DataProducts/ICRF/ICRF/icrf.html?__nnn=true
  530. [15:18:08] <Radeusgd> well, possible
  531. [15:18:14] <Radeusgd> or sun, it would be easier to crunch
  532. [15:18:22] <Radeusgd> but you may be right as well
  533. [15:18:32] <monocle> but what's the point?
  534. [15:19:03] <Radeusgd> but what point?
  535. [15:20:11] <monocle> of pointing to something in sapce.
  536. [15:20:19] <Radeusgd> hah, I don't know
  537. [15:20:21] <monocle> *pointing something
  538. [15:20:38] <Radeusgd> it doesn't look like precise enough to point something on earth
  539. [15:20:47] <Radeusgd> OR maybe it's some asteroid???!
  540. [15:21:15] <monocle> but it would be inaccurate in a matter of minutes!
  541. [15:21:22] <monocle> or hours.
  542. [15:21:37] <Radeusgd> true
  543. [15:21:42] <Radeusgd> hmm
  544. [15:21:51] <Radeusgd> well, this one is a hard riddle
  545. [15:22:21] <monocle> so looking back. What's the purpose of this subreddit anyway? >.<
  546. [15:22:28] <Radeusgd> hah, I got no idea
  547. [15:22:34] <Radeusgd> I thought they send some data
  548. [15:22:37] <monocle> I wanna say Aliens so much, XDD
  549. [15:22:49] <Radeusgd> but it seems every code refers to method for solving another...
  550. [15:22:53] <Radeusgd> hah me too
  551. [15:23:27] <monocle> A02 has some weird stuff in it though.
  552. [15:23:31] <Radeusgd> yeah
  553. [15:23:41] <Radeusgd> especially the images
  554. [15:23:45] <monocle> It's like it's being used for comms.
  555. [15:23:59] <Radeusgd> and things like modify behavior, observe 3.17 days
  556. [15:24:06] <monocle> The post did refer to those places.
  557. [15:24:28] <monocle> look at 21 though.
  558. [15:24:32] <monocle> 305 1175 no change. will romeo shortly
  559. [15:24:37] <Radeusgd> yeah
  560. [15:24:40] <monocle> oh wait
  561. [15:24:51] <Radeusgd> romeo reminds me of military code like A=Alpha, C=Charlie etc.
  562. [15:24:53] <monocle> it's 035
  563. [15:24:53] <Radeusgd> yes?
  564. [15:25:01] <monocle> the other is 305.
  565. [15:25:29] <monocle> yeah. Romeo is phonetic letters or something.
  566. [15:26:25] <monocle> NATO phonetic alphabet to be precise.
  567. [15:26:45] <Radeusgd> nice find
  568. [15:26:59] <Radeusgd> do we have any other similar words?
  569. [15:27:11] <monocle> similar words?
  570. [15:27:31] <Radeusgd> like romeo or bravo in the decrypted text
  571. [15:27:37] <Radeusgd> well I don't see such :/
  572. [15:27:39] <monocle> Googling romeo gives me Shakespear's romeo.
  573. [15:27:45] <monocle> Nope there's nothing.
  574. [15:27:45] <Radeusgd> xD
  575. [15:29:21] <monocle> military procedure words says it's copy or roger
  576. [15:29:22] <monocle> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedure_word
  577. [15:29:38] <Radeusgd> Acknowledgement of a message is expressed with roger message, often shortened to roger; "roger" was the World War II-era word for R (modern 'romeo'), which stood for "received".
  578. [15:29:47] <Radeusgd> found exavtly that the same moment ;)
  579. [15:29:55] <monocle> haha
  580. [15:30:18] <Radeusgd> so
  581. [15:30:35] <Radeusgd> maybe it says that this will be the end of stream shortly??
  582. [15:30:43] <monocle> IDK.
  583. [15:30:50] <monocle> So far it's still continuing.
  584. [15:31:01] <Radeusgd> yeah
  585. [15:31:11] <Radeusgd> maybe the last msg will be in ~36 hours?
  586. [15:31:32] <monocle> maybe.
  587. [15:32:40] <monocle> Man. Still can't find any pattern in A03 aside from the same number of clusters is the same as the number of characters in the message. >.<
  588. [15:32:50] <Radeusgd> yeah
  589. [15:32:56] <Radeusgd> my conclusion
  590. [15:33:04] <Radeusgd> is that this cipher has a key
  591. [15:33:18] <Radeusgd> having a key, the same letter (e.g. A) isn't the same in the message
  592. [15:33:33] <monocle> yea.
  593. [15:33:40] <Radeusgd> I'd try XORing it with the 026 message, but backwards?
  594. [15:33:41] <monocle> So like reversible MD5?
  595. [15:33:53] <Radeusgd> well, like normal symmetric cipher
  596. [15:34:03] <monocle> oh.
  597. [15:34:06] <Radeusgd> for example XOR: xoring message with key
  598. [15:35:48] <monocle> maybe the dormedas guy could decipher this.
  599. [15:36:31] <Radeusgd> who's that?
  600. [15:36:47] <monocle> The guy who figured out the A02
  601. [15:36:53] <Radeusgd> I see
  602. [15:37:00] <Radeusgd> we need to call him xD
  603. [15:37:10] <monocle> Haha
  604. [15:37:54] <Radeusgd> http://www.reddit.com/r/Solving_A858/comments/24hmxo/r32865_second_encryption_figured_out/ch7hu3d ?
  605. [15:38:27] <Radeusgd> it might be CRC16
  606. [15:38:37] <monocle> Hmm.
  607. [15:39:27] <monocle> or fletcher?
  608. [15:40:01] <Radeusgd> what's that?
  609. [15:40:21] <monocle> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fletcher%27s_checksum
  610. [15:41:33] <Radeusgd> makes sense, hence 2 inst may mean it's simple?
  611. [15:42:05] <monocle> that might be it.
  612. [15:42:25] <Radeusgd> yeah
  613. [15:42:35] <Radeusgd> but these posts have no verification
  614. [15:42:45] <Radeusgd> and CRC or fletcher are more likely to have collisions
  615. [15:42:52] <monocle> You're right.
  616. [15:42:56] <Radeusgd> so it might be hard to reverse
  617. [15:43:11] <Radeusgd> brb
  618. [15:43:20] <monocle> ok
  619. [15:46:55] <Radeusgd> I'm back
  620. [15:47:20] <monocle> The client cut off our earliet chat.
  621. [15:47:22] <monocle> *earlier
  622. [15:50:46] <Radeusgd> I still got it, do you want me to send it?
  623. [15:51:19] <monocle> The first threads?
  624. [15:51:20] <monocle> Sure
  625. [15:51:30] <monocle> *post
