no wonder A1 and A2 have abnormally large sizes

ok
don't think anything can be hidden and have the file be 190kb simultaneously

ok now i'm stumped with A4 screenshot
maybe there's a lead by looking into the filename of the .jpg image and the chrome URL

#

or maybe not

#

ok
probed URL, lsnnews.com doesn't exist as a domain, devs didn't do it like PAYDAY devs did

#

I did some more thinking and I feel like we're currently on good pace and just have to wait

#

Cause Branch A is on hold cause all the eyes are on the mlo and they wanna keep it quiet for now, branch B might be a more long term one that requires longer gaps inbetween stuff

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 7:51 AM

#

i 100% agree with you

#

i also believe we are on a good pace

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 7:51 AM

#

Yep

#

Now let's quickly flood this chat with random garbage to hide these messages so Kaminsky doesn't read them and think to make the arg infinitely harder

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 7:52 AM

#

LMAO

#

well first off good morning to you

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 7:52 AM

#

gm, been awake for around 8 hours already lmao

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 7:52 AM

#

ah gotcha

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 7:52 AM

#

Bit unusual for my timezone cause I was up since 2 but stuff happens

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 7:53 AM

#

after we finished up i ended up taking like a 5.5-6hr nap lol

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 7:53 AM

#

Damn

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 7:53 AM

#

its been pretty normal for that to happen

#

since i came more invalded in the ARG

#

100% worth

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 7:56 AM

#

Btw been thinking that we should use more codes for the outline of the google doc

#

For instance, put an S before an image's name to mark it as solved or NS for not solved

#

So that when you're quickly glossing through, you don't need to read about the images themselves, you can just go direct to the unsolved one

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 7:57 AM

#

I am down for that

#

i just thought of several questions we could ask Lily

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 8:09 AM

#

List

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 8:10 AM

#

"who is Officer 619"
"Who is CHSN 8675-A"

#

are two

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 8:10 AM

#

Wanna test the theory on whether or not it would work?

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 8:10 AM

#

sure

#

@boreal kite who is Officer 619 and Who is CHSN 8675-A

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 8:11 AM

#

also holy shit we were almost right on that layout

#

not entirely right but pretty close

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 8:11 AM

#

oh 100%

#

its like abit further to the left

#

and facing the wall

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 8:12 AM

#

Yea the bearcat is a bit off from where I put it but pretty good

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 8:12 AM

#

its was really close

#

be funny if these questions took us down another rabbit hole

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 8:14 AM

#

That'd be fun

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 8:14 AM

#

agreed

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 8:14 AM

#

I'd love to see the arg go down a more interactive path

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 8:14 AM

#

that would be fun!

#

also did you notice the ARG photo on the dlc page?

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 5:05 PM

#

Nice

rigid sphinx Jul 17, 2024, 5:05 PM

#

:>
Just didn't want the convos to hide stuff now that general and ron have slowed down

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 5:05 PM

#

apologies for the random convo just felt safer here then general lol

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 5:06 PM

#

Yeah fair, btw just out of curiosity, does that purge also log the deleted messages or just purely purge them? Cause if it just purges them, then dyno's got a useful purge after command

rigid sphinx Jul 17, 2024, 5:06 PM

#

Naw, that's fair

rigid sphinx Jul 17, 2024, 5:06 PM

#

autumn geyser Yeah fair, btw just out of curiosity, does that purge also log the deleted messa...

Zep does keep a log

#

but we'd rather have it that way

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 5:06 PM

#

Ah okay makes sense

#

Yeah that's good, dyno doesn't

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 5:07 PM

#

also cough check Lilies cough

#

sorry

#

bad cough

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 5:07 PM

#

Also damn yeah lilies eyes really doesn't wanna talk do they

shrewd yarrow Jul 17, 2024, 5:07 PM

#

no, must really be in hiding

autumn geyser Jul 17, 2024, 5:08 PM

#

I guess they took this whole silence thing quite severely

#

0 comms

sacred dawn Jul 17, 2024, 11:04 PM

#

#

This might help for going back to other levels and recheck dates

#

If that's coming with the update I hope...

topaz jackal Jul 18, 2024, 12:06 AM

#

so are we gonna hold off until lilies says something again

#

i mean given the gameplay trailer is out
there may be smth inside

amber holly Jul 18, 2024, 12:16 AM

#

what do we have so far?

#

talk about chemicals from a possible paramilitary? orr

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 12:16 AM

#

Thats what i am waiting on since i did ask the questions. I do suggest others start anayzling things that we may have missed or overlooked. And i will update the doc as needed when i gey a response

#

Basicly some group is using a drug to keep control of people

amber holly Jul 18, 2024, 12:23 AM

#

shrewd yarrow Basicly some group is using a drug to keep control of people

hmm a drug

#

this implies that the cartel does have ties to this since they pretty much smuggle that and ppl across the border

#

and im psure the dlc maps have cartel dudes in them

#

along with the butterfly mark in the tunnel/cave system

#

and the lil eyes on the cave might be a metaphor to the constant reminder that we are being watched

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 12:25 AM

#

From my understanding 4L1 is one of the chemical compounds that make up this drug

#

Or is the drug?

amber holly Jul 18, 2024, 12:27 AM

#

i'll look into it, 4L1 does sound rlly familiar

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 12:27 AM

#

C24 H23 N7 thats the chemical make up

#

bibenzimidazole

#

Is what we been using for the name

#

Also the google doc has all the info so far

radiant sonnet Jul 18, 2024, 12:47 AM

#

4L1 is the precursor

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:01 AM

#

That!

#

Ty Boom for the correction!

topaz jackal Jul 18, 2024, 2:43 AM

#

took a look at the trailer
doesn't seem to have anything interesting; just advertising the DLC

#

i have next week off and also have some of my salary leftover so i'll probably buy it on 23rd to play and look for any clues if they hid anything
most i can do for now

#

this is also unsubstantiated but i kinda feel the in-game CIA has some ties to this too

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:48 AM

#

I am all set to playthrough the dlc, i will probably play with a friend through the levels see if i can find some clues

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 4:47 AM

#

alrighty, gonna take a look over A4

#

oh no....

#

@autumn geyser apologies for the early morning ping the list of questions for Lily disappered

#

Aha! i remember them now! writing them in a notpad

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 7:00 AM

#

@boreal kite Who is Officer 619? and Who is CHSN#8675-A?

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 7:50 AM

#

shrewd yarrow <@308270212359258113> apologies for the early morning ping the list of questions...

dw about pings when I'm asleep, I never wake up because of a ping

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 7:51 AM

#

ok

#

i just would feel bad if i end up waking you up

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 7:54 AM

#

Fair

boreal kite Jul 18, 2024, 12:36 PM

#

shrewd yarrow <@650879895693557770> Who is Officer 619? and Who is CHSN#8675-A?

the interloper and the innocent
they will never see the sky again

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 12:36 PM

#

huh... interesting....

#

doc updated with responses at the very bottom in the messages section.

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 12:44 PM

#

Interloper is 619, 8675 is innocent

#

Both dead presumably

#

8675 innocent meaning possibly civ?

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 12:45 PM

#

that's what i am thinking

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 12:45 PM

#

Both dead, both saw parts of the project that they should never have

#

Perhaps it was branded as some sort of different test and the leo arriving meant civ saw something they shouldnt have

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 12:46 PM

#

theory: this Chosen saw what has happening or learned what was going to happen to them and managed to find away to contact the police they sent officer 619 to investagate and learned too much

#

causing them both to be killed

#

well, when a officer goes missing it generates a bigger response to the last known location

#

wasn't 100% sure where to put the responses, so i put in messages.

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 12:53 PM

#

Possible

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 12:53 PM

#

tho! that does clarify the message of "The end of the innocent and the interloper"

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 12:53 PM

#

shrewd yarrow wasn't 100% sure where to put the responses, so i put in messages.

We might need to make some kinda "no branch" setup or something

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 12:53 PM

#

shrewd yarrow tho! that does clarify the message of "The end of the innocent and the interlope...

Yep that it does

#

no branch setup meaning messages that dont relate directly to either branch

#

or to both at once

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 12:54 PM

#

i can agree to that

#

their kinda the "hey we want to know more about this partiular piece of lore"

#

the 2nd part tho.... could POSSIBLE lead somewhere, but it does have a double edge meaning

#

docs been updated accordingly

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 1:00 PM

#

Also man I love the convenience of the doc

#

Super happy with the fact that we did that

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:00 PM

#

so do i

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 1:00 PM

#

All the info in one, highly condensed, space

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:01 PM

#

did we ever make a TL;DR?

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 1:01 PM

#

Don't think so

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:01 PM

#

i know we discussed it

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 1:01 PM

#

I tried but can't find a way to do it right so I gave up

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:01 PM

#

fair enough

#

i'm not quite sure how to do one either lol

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 1:02 PM

#

Yep

#

As I learned in programming, subtracting is so much infinitely harder than adding things

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:02 PM

#

oh 100%

#

you think we should put somewhere on tactical pause til DLC settles?

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 1:03 PM

#

Wdym

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:05 PM

#

uh, basicly i know Kam will be super busy dealing with DLC shanagins til release, I don't wanna keep poking and be like "hey asked X thing for Lily"

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 1:05 PM

#

Ah

#

Maybe, I mean DLC is just around the corner

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:06 PM

#

true

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 1:06 PM

#

I'd say if kaminsky says he can handle it then we can continue, but it deffo might be nice to give him some free time to breathe

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 1:06 PM

#

agreed

#

that's my thought

dry gale Jul 18, 2024, 2:09 PM

#

boreal kite the interloper and the innocent they will never see the sky again

ok so they're dead as hell

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:09 PM

#

Oh 100%

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:09 PM

#

Yep

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:09 PM

#

Wait 1min

#

Do you guyd think...

#

What i am thinking.

dry gale Jul 18, 2024, 2:12 PM

#

yeah, I've been thinking about that for a couple days now

#

I just don't know whether we're looking at the death of the innocent, or the intruder

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:12 PM

#

I reckon 619

#

mission being that we tracked the location of the officer and we're going in to investigate

dry gale Jul 18, 2024, 2:13 PM

#

so y'all were right that of619 was the missing lspd officer, earlier I came to the conclusion that it was some sort of assigned ID for a member within whatever organization we're dealing with, turns out it must be the opposite

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:14 PM

#

I think 619 is just his badge number

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:15 PM

#

When we got that pic... Lily said... "CHSN DSGN. THREATENED"

#

Could that have double meaning?

#

@boreal kite What did you mean when you said "They know not what they threaten"?

#

@autumn geyser uh... inc

love it

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:36 PM

Wonder if that's a vigenere or if it's merely randomized text

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:36 PM

#

LMFAO

#

try Vig

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:36 PM

#

autumn geyser I'd say if kaminsky says he can handle it then we can continue, but it deffo mig...

Yoo kaminsky btw what's your take on this

#

Yeah I'll put that through my thing with all sorts of random keys

rigid sphinx Jul 18, 2024, 2:37 PM

I have my tutorial script, I can take a break once I'm done. :>

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:37 PM

Ah okay nice

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:37 PM

#

ok

#

operation back then

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:38 PM

#

Yeah that doesn't seem vigenere

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

hmm

#

a1z26?

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

Unless it's the wrong word, that gives less vowels and more consonants

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

no

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

And less i/a/e, which are like the most frequent letters

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

it's az

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

Ah is it

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:39 PM

#

autumn geyser Ah is it

it's not

#

wait

#

maybe?

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:40 PM

#

a1z26 would give us numbers but we can work with numbers

#

is weird tho

#

18;+;5;20;10;3;4;19;11;19;25;14;20;1;9;10;8;1;20;4;12

#

18+520103419111925142019108120412

#

is deffo out of place ev en with nubmers cause the next one does not have a number before the plus

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:41 PM

#

hmm

#

doc updated accordingly

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:52 PM

#

This is very confusing

#

No cipher I've looked at matches

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:54 PM

#

hmm

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:56 PM

#

What if they just punched their keyboard or something

#

How do we know lilies eyes doesnt have terrible anger issues

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 2:58 PM

#

lol

#

who knows

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 2:59 PM

#

Yeah gonna be honest I am beyond lost

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 3:00 PM

#

i'm alittle lost but wanna keep trying lol

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 3:01 PM

#

All I got is that it's not vigenere, not anything to do with a1z26, and that it's not a cipher that I can easily find
What I assume to be true:

First word is 21 letters long, second one is 4, last one is 8. First word is likely comprised of two or more words, however.
Cipher uses some sort of substitution

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 3:05 PM

#

is it a scramble?

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 3:05 PM

#

Unlikely based on the letter frequency

#

Plus where does + go

#

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

true

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 3:08 PM

#

I honestly am just completely lost at this, someone way smarter has to look at that cause I've nothing

shrewd yarrow Jul 18, 2024, 3:09 PM

#

i mean i am at lost myself

#

i will be honest

#

i was NOT expecting that

autumn geyser Jul 18, 2024, 3:19 PM

We're more lost than The Lost

Thought. Storm themes come up a lot in the current build. eg. those tunnels with the old rock paintings about a storm washing away evil.
Oh look, there's a hurricane. Everyone's flooded.
Wondering. Perhaps hurricane will accidentally reveal something the USIA doesn't want found, and eventually lead to a raid on USIA to 'wash away the evil'.

shrewd yarrow Jul 19, 2024, 12:43 AM

That is a possiblity

#

What is this place

shrewd yarrow Jul 19, 2024, 4:46 AM

#

it's an alternate reality game ARG

#

basicly someone will take imges modify them in some way and then will make clues on whats happening

rigid sphinx Jul 19, 2024, 4:48 AM

#

Not only images. It's codes, puzzles, and cryptography that hide lore bits and information about the game world

shrewd yarrow Jul 19, 2024, 4:48 AM

#

yep!

rigid sphinx Jul 19, 2024, 4:48 AM

#

There's a log of the current version of the ARG in the pinned messages if you want to catch up smidogif

topaz jackal Jul 19, 2024, 6:19 AM

#

scratch this, i saw wrong

#

hold on gonna probe the other 2 ciphertexts

#

why are there 2 +s?

#

i have a feeling it's vigenere again ngl

#

ps
https://gchq.github.io/CyberChef/
came in handy when i played CTF matches
it's a decryption/decoding toolbox web app

#

maybe someone like boom can use it better than me

topaz jackal Jul 19, 2024, 6:48 AM

#

the +s are incredibly sus
does it mean the texts can be mashed together?
does it produce multiple results when separate and concatenated?

#

hm
lilies responded before the DLC came out
so i shouldn't need to play the DLC levels first to solve it

#

maybe

#

entropy value from cyberchef is 3.8
it's said that english text usually falls between 3.5 to 5
so it is english
this probably cancels out chatgpt's hypothesis that it's in a foreign language before being encrypted

#

yeah fuck
no good progress from me
i'll maybe try again tonight

jovial raven Jul 19, 2024, 7:16 AM

#

I am trying my hand at the lilies eyes most recent messages

#

the ciphertext containing a "+" led me straight to a trifid cipher which relies on a 27 letter alphabet - the 27th letter could be a "+"

#

reading into the cipher now to see if it's potentially what we're working with

topaz jackal Jul 19, 2024, 9:33 AM

#

boxentriq analysis claims we haven't changed ciphering methods

#

ok
what's the keyword then
is it one of the three?
do we have to find another keyword?

#

we know for sure it isn't cryptii anymore

autumn geyser Jul 19, 2024, 9:37 AM

#

I severely doubt that is vigenere

#

May be but there's not one place for a plus

#

That's what's throwing me off

topaz jackal Jul 19, 2024, 9:39 AM

#

i have a feeling the + has another meaning rather than being part of the ciphertext ngl

autumn geyser Jul 19, 2024, 9:39 AM

#

Very likely yea

topaz jackal Jul 19, 2024, 9:40 AM

#

we can also try beaufort cipher like the screenshot said it could also be

#

the other guy also suggested bifid/trifid too

#

i'm trying the 3 ciphertexts against each other via vigenere
still all gibberish
it's either not working or it's part of a URL or file name

jovial raven Jul 19, 2024, 9:46 AM

#

I'm still working on trifid but I'm not coming up with much

jovial raven Jul 19, 2024, 11:19 AM

#

I doubt that its beaufort or vigenere

crude tiger Jul 19, 2024, 4:06 PM

#

its probably @fading birch

#

not sure though

shrewd yarrow Jul 19, 2024, 5:04 PM

#

a few sites i've tried have it identifyed said it was double collum

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 4:54 AM

#

bro

#

where's the people who cracked the previous cipher

#

this shit ain't budging

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 4:55 AM

#

Yeah this cipher is way harder

autumn geyser There's no key for it

can't wait for someone to kidnap a dev just to slve it

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 5:04 AM

#

i'm here now

#

i just got home from work and made food

#

evening/morning all

#

and even i am struggling

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 5:05 AM

#

Fair

#

It's a mess this new cipher

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 5:05 AM

#

yeah it is

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 5:06 AM

#

What if we aren't meant to know

#

What if it'll be revealed later on

#

Or what if it's a gwynnstitution moment and we now have to make a brand new cipher purely for this arg again

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 5:07 AM

#

that's honestly my worst fear that its a gwynnstituion

#

i mean thats possible

#

that aren't suppose know

#

from two sites that i been using to try identifying the first line

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 5:45 AM

#

hmmm i tried doing binary that didn't do anything

radiant sonnet Jul 20, 2024, 5:48 AM

#

I’ve tried most techniques I know and have not come up with anything

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 5:48 AM

#

Yep

radiant sonnet Jul 20, 2024, 5:48 AM

#

Encryption is not my strong suit though

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 5:49 AM

#

I'm 99% sure it's either going to be some kind of substitution cipher/letter scramble or it's a cipher we haven't been made aware of yet in the form of it was just made

rigid sphinx Jul 20, 2024, 6:51 AM

#

Original ciphers would be dropped with some sort of hint

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 6:55 AM

#

so it's something we haven't used yet :/

#

🤔

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 7:31 AM

#

Damn that's mildly unfortunate

#

Actually wait no

#

some is italics

#

Meaning there was a hint dropped

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 7:32 AM

#

CHSN

#

wait idea

#

nvm lol

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 7:40 AM

#

Damn

#

I felt that

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 7:40 AM

#

xD

#

my thought was weather to ask Lily for an hint even a small one

#

lol

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 7:40 AM

#

There are two sides of an arg:

YOOO I FOUND SOMETHING LET'S GOOO
and
Yoo I found some- nevermind.

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 7:41 AM

#

lol

#

pretty much

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 7:41 AM

#

Well I guess there's also the hitting my head on the desk so I can maybe shake my last braincell enough to have it produce a potential solution

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 7:41 AM

#

lmao

#

i feel that

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:06 AM

#

damn
so we're going the original cipher route now

#

i really have no idea what to do atp
i just know those +s have to mean something

#

i inserted bsd where the larger ciphertext has a + in
i concatenated the texts together
nothing

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:07 AM

#

the +s are really throwing me off

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:08 AM

#

i guess linas and presidente are right
this likely isn't vigenere anymore

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:08 AM

#

no i 100% agree it isn't

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:09 AM

#

i mean kam even came in to say there were hints as to an original cipher

#

if that's the case what's the ciphering mechanism? substitution? transposition?

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:10 AM

#

a combo of both?

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:10 AM

#

bro i'll kms if it's both

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:11 AM

#

i would kill something...

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 8:15 AM

#

I reckon it's substitution and the end result is multiple words

#

at least for the first one

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:20 AM

#

that's highly probabal

#

i think?

#

is this a trifid?

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 8:32 AM

#

Maybe

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:39 AM

#

whoa!

#

so i did this

#

#

then i did.... this

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 8:39 AM

#

Holy shit okay nice

#

Now reverse that

#

We go trifid to caesar

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:40 AM

#

The CHSN are r+etjcdsksyntaijhatdl
They are the LOST
edkcyzjf

#

so far

#

standby

#

ok the first one is something else

#

cause the same method gets me INNPLOZEDRZCHWXZUOUCV

#

whatever that is

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 8:42 AM

#

That's still progress I guess

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:42 AM

#

that is

#

updated the doc

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:46 AM

#

bro.........

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:46 AM

#

lol

#

combo ciphers now

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:46 AM

#

should've listened to presidente

#

fuck

#

he correctly ID'd it as trifid

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:46 AM

#

did he?

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:47 AM

#

yeah but he got no results

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:47 AM

#

oh shit he did....

#

@jovial raven friendo you were right on trifid for one part

#

wait

#

let me play around

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:48 AM

#

ok what if

#

1st layer of 1st ciphertext is trifid since there's a +

#

then you use the 3rd ciphertext as a key for the 1st after decrypting the trifid

#

it may be vigenere again

#

idk i'm gonna try it

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:49 AM

#

go for it

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 8:49 AM

#

Tried viginere for part one with some keywords

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:49 AM

#

try LOST as a keyword

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:49 AM

#

using INNPLOZEDRZCHWXZUOUCV with key edkcyzjf produces EKDNNPQZZOPAJXOUQLKAX

#

nothing

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:49 AM

#

thats what i got

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:49 AM

#

using key LOST produces XZVWAAHLSDHJWIFGJACJK

#

PUUWSVGLKYGJODEGBVBJC is my plaintext for vigenere, what's yours

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:50 AM

#

hang on

#

for trifad same

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 8:51 AM

#

Yeah that's post trifid

shrewd yarrow Jul 20, 2024, 8:51 AM

#

oh wow

#

r+etjcdsksyntaijhatdl in trifad got me this PUUWSVGLKYGJODEGBVBJC i put in the caesar and got INNPLOZEDRZCHWXZUOUCV

topaz jackal Jul 20, 2024, 8:53 AM

#

trifid decrypt, no key, group size 5
original r+etjcdsksyntaijhatdl
post trifid ptwvyahuamvyaolmbabyl

we don't have a key tho

lol

autumn geyser Jul 20, 2024, 10:10 AM

the 3 cipher identifier web apps i used say their results aren't reliable as edkcyzjf is only 8 letters and isn't much to go around
