treat those as if they're in front of the number they are above of

then it works

oh ok

do you guys think the time signature changes in Numbers II are important

already considered that in the docs

I thought about the time signature changes but the more I think about it the less likely it seems relevant and more likely just a fun little music detail

obtuse basalt
#

It felt so weird to me
I even counted it out and it's useless? I want a refund

potent cobalt
#

The song this time is at an even 128bpm.

inner ingot
#

Well the little breaks are in 5/4 then 4/4 then 3/4, I can't think of an example but I think it's just a music thing to "balance" the 5/4 measure with the 3/4 measure, along with just a general progression of shorter breaks between because it's spicy

obtuse basalt
#

like the bits! good reference

#

And then a random bit of nothing for an extra bar?

inner ingot
#

Well it might be indicating the "void" that has to be filled, but I don't think the time signature's gonna help with solving that lol

potent cobalt
#

For the little it's worth, I do appreciate the fact that the hallway section is exactly eight measures.

if anyone really wants, i can put the code for this and a build using pyinstaller on github.
otherwise i am going

#

put it up, let's try not to duplicate effort

#

Maybe this is a world.execute(me) reference?

inner ingot
#

Did the Soundcloud get rid of the XY + odd one out or whatever bit or does it just not show up on mobile

coral hazel
#

nope still here

fast path
#

its still there

inner ingot
#

What's the end goal with all this number stuff anyhow? To find a key to decrypt the Numbers I description?

cosmic grail
azure oyster
#

pff, imagine everything up to this point has just been a bunch of hints for decrypting the Numbers description AmeliaHeh

#

because we are so helpless

honest harness
#

NeuroClueless no we're just stuck on purpose so we get more bangers what do you mean

inner ingot
#

I mean considering the time between uploads I wouldn't discount it lul

#

i hope we get the full ghost song as a reward for solving the arg

#

because we will surely solve it

Man I fell asleep

#

Inb4 all the Numbers I lyrics and its description are randomly generated by an AI and mean nothing (Generating Lyrics is a pain) but vedal is trolling us by making follow up vids that make it seem like it makes sense

steady fossil
#

honestly we arrived at these numbers before, it's nice to have confirmation now that those numbers are correct, but the primary problem was that we didn't know what to do with them and we still don't

#

So it really seems like this video is meant to solidify those findings, so that we stop chasing other theories about the numbers and focus on how to apply what we've found

#

And it's not the first time I've heard a reference to this song

inner ingot
#

Don't think there's much to the Japanese transcription honestly, it's entirely congruent with the subtitles

vapid token

#

it would be kinda weird to have the ARG reference world.execute(me); but neuro has sung it 3 times so far and many things seem to be slight references to it

#

then again it could just be a coincidence since it's a popular song for neuro to sing, and both the ARG and the song are about an AI and vedal is a programmer

vapid token
#

world.execute(me); has java and public static void line, thats all for now, so not much

vapid token
burnt glacier
#

yeah that's fair, anything that could give us a clue should be pursued

#

although the song is also very old, so unless vedal somehow planned for this more than 7 years in the past and reached out to Mili to make the song have subtle clues to the ARG, it's probably a dead end right?

#

have any of you tried checking the storyboard for world execute in osu

vapid token
#

No

#

Osu in this arg is will be too much 5head

burnt glacier

#

i only say cause the world execute storyboard is famous. it was and still is one of the most intricate beatmap storyboards

#

and it has lots of background details

burnt glacier
vapid token
burnt glacier
#

yeah, just saying it will probably be a dead end, still probably worth checking out though

vapid token
#

Yeah...

fresh python
#

thats the osu storyboard

#

Considering she also sang world execute in her v2 debut stream which was the same time the ARG started, I just think its something to consider

#

and starting off as an osu playing AI

#

the connections are there

how much progress has been made

austere sun
#

please ping me if someone finds sound effects (including breathing) to be samples or if someone finds what voice generator that was used for japanese, thank you

plucky maple
#

alrightnwero it's a good news

#

ok so world.execute was probably chosen as a song for neuro to sing partially because of osu, but that doesn't mean it's connected to the ARG

dusk star
#

I don't know if this is meaningful, but I found the meaning of skipped digits that looks like glitches:
After key was generated, we take input number (201, 1321, etc), check its digits and modify generated key:
all occuruences of 1st digit are deleted, then dash added on top of digit following to deleted. If deleted digit is the last, dash added on top of empty place like in 4913 and 4156.
all occuruences of 2nd digit replaced with b
all occuruences of 3rd digit replaced with musical note with three dashes on top
all occurrences of 4th digit are deleted, three dashes are added on top of digit following to deleted

HOLY ARG

Probably unrelated, but \ in a string is usually for escaping characters

#

i guess its time for me to check the doc for once again rooSip

unique mason
#

holy shit.

i missed the premeire ;-;

#

Here i go to read the docs

distant girder
#

it released at a really unfortunate time for me

obtuse basalt
#

I thought the YT countdown was the video and I thought I missed half of it lol

#

I've figured out the lore
The girl can't solve a captcha and can't do anything else as a result NeuroClueless

honest harness
#

You didn't miss much, nothing has been solved

#

The spectrogram was neat though

obtuse basalt
#

Spectrogram was a neat clue dunno what to use it for myself
Beginning of the video seems to confirm and clarify what the lyrics of Numbers 1 wanted to do

unique mason
#

ok

#

this is uncanny

#

the fanfic/arg-inspired story im writing has a ton of similarities to this video-

#

the heck

#

ig that might mean my interpretation of the story trying to be told is decently accurate?

#

but gahdamn

#

this vid has to be the best produced one yet

#

cant tell if shes crying or breathing heavily in fear at the start

#

oh wait shes crying

japanese voice asks why she's crying

#

but also asks why shes afraid, so i guess both are true

obtuse basalt
#

Seems to relate to Study

fast path
#

yeah "Got myself another test"

obtuse basalt
#

There's heavy breathing in both vids and door noises? Knocking in study and a muffled closing in Static Void

#

Sounds like she's stuck in a cycle of needing to study, not studying, and suffering because of it (anxiety likely)
Not sure if there's time passing or if she's stuck in a time loop maisterThink

#

Stands out as being the only one being between human and artificial perhaps
But how does 'falling' fit into it?

Far from home?

There's some interesting lore questions here

Did we get the part of the lyrics in ?Japanese? transcribed?

there was this

timid swift

Can someone who can read it copy the relevant part into the docs? I presume not all of message, i'm not just gonna copy paste blindly x)

it's red pink blue scibble, maybe it's really a compression

#

if it's a clue it's should be easy to see with brightness up

eternal timber
#

I feel like we got some answers from this new video (like what numbers 1 and numbers 2 mean in general) but many questions still remain like; What's up with the soundcloud? how do we decrypt the keys? 572943? etc.

digital radish
#

we dont know, we're trying to solve things as they go

eternal timber
#

Though the clues are good I'm not complaining neuroHeart just thinking out loud

digital radish
#

one solution eventually ends up solving another thing

#

and so on

native maple
#

my current theory, not to be trusted, is that the additional crypted text might be additional hint for later in the ARG like bulk hints made because we are so stuck at the start it was needed to prepare hints in advance KEKW

digital radish
#

yep

Reward for solving the arg: Vinyl album with the full version of "I think I saw a ghost" PauseSama

safe monolith
#

I think there was some sentiment around that we were given clues because we were stuck

What does everyone think? Would we have been able to solve the content in Numbers 1 without Numbers 2? What about reaching the current state-of-the-art without Public Static Void?

timid swift
#

We'll probably only know when we know what the solution is

native maple
#

from hint we gather on the last video the lyrics interpretation are the simple ones, it gave us the algorithm that we kinda knew but weren't sure so we started making alteration like "2 4" became "to 4" for some reason and "line" was confirmed as being 1

so yes tbh i think this proved we might be able to figure it out with only number 1, but we were so chaotic we needed the last video to confirm the lyrics for us

eternal timber
native maple
#

yea for sure only trust things coming from the channel

austere sun

good stuff

whats the changelog PauseSama

*removed herobrine

tawdry narwhal
tawny pasture
#

Good work, everyone!

austere sun
native maple
#

it was also a big part of why we were stuck, we didn't know if the keys were only numbers, from what we got on the last video it generated keys with only numbers

#

but there is still the "matching all the letters part"

coral hazel
#

Hi ! any news since <t:1687485600:f> ?

native maple

we decided to make a website to check if we are having strokes

i have been not looking at this for too long

yooo bred

eternal timber
hollow garnet
#

i saw

#

haven't watched it though

native maple
#

we got confirmation on the lyrics now if you want to dust of the old docs

hollow garnet
#

for all the videos or just the newest one?

native maple
#

we got number 1 lyrics down

coral hazel
#

and some numbers from number 2 used

native maple
#
//[number] is the input, [n] is the output
n = "2" + number; 
n += "9";
n += "1";
n *= 5;
n += "6";
n = n.split('').reverse().join('');
n = n.replaceAll('2', '3');
n *= 9;
n += "24";
n = “17” + n;
hollow garnet
#

neat

native maple
#

we got this from looking and testing and it match lyrics

hollow garnet
#

oh i forgot to ask the most important question

#

is the new song a banger?

native maple
#

we got rap

austere sun
#

its barely a song tbh, sponsorblock skips like half of it automatically lmao as non-music section

hollow garnet
#

smh

#

god audacity looks so bad at high dpis

river mantle
#

banger indeed, but it's like it's only half of the song like ghost T^T

hollow garnet
#

shame

timid swift
#

:neuroclueless: indeed

native maple
#

find the number NeuroClueless

#

and pass it through the lyrics

rotund willow
#

combine the two numbers with this video to calculate the number and then substitute those brief introductions for decryption

timid swift
#

26 is a number. It's between X and Y with the odd one removed from one of the vid descriptions. But even then, what do we do with it?

rotund willow
#

I think

native maple
#

too smoll tho

timid swift
#

How is it too small?

native maple
#

the lyrics generate a key and from what we gather " 1st = 256 bit" so the key will be 32 char long it seems

timid swift
#

I'm not sure that's evidence of what it shouldn't be, only what it could be

austere sun
#

they key will be *at least 32 char long, because nothing points to that we need to decode from ascii and not hex for example

native maple
#

i tried a bunch of number and when i give number of 22 long the lyrics gave 32 long keys

native maple
#

but for now the only keys example we are shown are numbers

#

572943 does give a 16 bit key it's 1759032572147924
maybe it's the key for the 2nd desc since we had "2nd = 128bit"

timid swift
#

isn't 1759032572147924 16 bytes, or am i missing something?

#

Better not be it lel NeuroClueless

native maple
#

AES 128 bit can be decrypted with the corresponding key of at least 16 char long
AES 256 bit can be decrypted with the corresponding key of at least 32 char long

timid swift
#

When you say char, you're talking about bytes, right?

native maple
#

characters

timid swift
#

what width are these characters?

native maple
#

length

timid swift
#

like is it ascii or utf8 or unicode?

native maple
#

123456789 -> thats length of 9

#

123456789ABCDEFG -> thats length of 16

timid swift
#

so what's the encoding?

native maple
coral hazel
#

ascii (or utf-8 only ascii char)

timid swift
#

bytes, got it

native maple
#

bit and bytes are confusing yes my bad

timid swift
#

No problem

austere sun
#

technically the key can consist of only 1 character NeuroClueless it only needs an encoding that supports 2^256 possible characters

timid swift
native maple
#

might need to check the doc

coral hazel
#

no result no error

austere sun
#

yes it is a problem with fernet, i fixed it, see v1.1.1 release

coral hazel
#

oh ok thank

native maple
austere sun
#

you know what really grinds my gears? the fact that none of this disproves vedal backstory theory.
why even play around with a possibility. why have it live rent free in my head forever marking me as sociopath

#

ways to count string lengths: bytes, characters/code points, graphemes

#

ah shit, why was this not a reply

wild gulch
#

I got introduced to the ARG on another server and I've solved the code in the Numbers description, is this the right place to post about it?

red brook
#

yes.

vapid token

#

Good morning everyone

#

Did we find anything

wild gulch
#

You all seem to have the correct idea and even arrived at the correct number, but there is one additional step

The number is 1759032572147924

You then take the original starting number (572943) and convert each of those digits in the final number into a letter depending on their position in the starting number:

5 = a
7 = b
2 = c
9 = d
4 = e
3 = f

Which gives the final key as 1bad0fcabc1ebdce

#

Which can now be used as an AES-128 (ECB) key

native maple
#

oooh

#

GG

Today in class, everything was so dull and predictable. It's like the same thing happens every single day.

native maple
#

yea we really got stuck on matching the letters

#

so what was the 256bit about then

#

HyperClap thanks a lot randomizer

arctic canyon
#

wait

#

that's it then

#

that's the description decrypted?

native maple
#

yes

#

plain text,

arctic canyon
native maple
#

i tried on the other Base64 but not the same

wild gulch
#

Yeah, the same key doesn't work for the other codes so there is presumably still more to solve

safe monolith
#

Have also verified

austere sun
#

yeah ok ia m stupid.

but how can it be ecb, wasn't it proven like a billion times it cant be ecb

native maple
#

i mean at one point people said youtube compression would prevent hiding stuff in spectrogram but yesterday we got stuff in spectrogram no ?

red brook
#

I was also able to reproduce it

arctic canyon
#

I think Vedal watched all the analysis we did on the first video and used it to create techniques for the further videos

native maple

maybe

native maple

can't believe in the end the solution was simple

digital radish
native maple
#

we had all the piece on the docs but never used them correctly

austere sun
#

it wasnt simple at all, the leaps of logic needed to arrive to this are kilometers wide

native maple
#

not really, the lyrics part we had from the start with following the lyrics to get the 16key, and the letter substitution we made it in the beginning too we just never had it right

red brook
#

I think the one thing that prevented us from progressing was that nobody thought of adding a "1" for "add another line"

warped torrent

like I've said many times I don't want vedal to ever host a ctf

#

@daring acorn you still have a subdomain available?

manic dagger
#

think now that we have proved the description in Numbers 1 is used AES-128, does that mean Numbers 2 is used AES-256 as the Spectrogram showed in the latest video

what if it isnt a phone number

are the mods/admins in on the ARG?

oh it was save me

safe monolith

^

vapid token
#

save me...

manic dagger
#

you forget that three dot

safe monolith
#

Cringe first text ngl

plucky maple
#

or hi vedal ?

arctic canyon
#

I'm not texting a random number "save me..." the police will turn up asking if i'm ok

manic dagger
languid swan
vapid token
#

I imagine if it's a random number

digital radish
#

@daring acorn no access

red brook
#

and it just replies "Hey, we've been trying to reach you about your Car's Extended Warranty..."

jaunty finch
#

perhaps the phone will be available during one of the streams?

daring acorn
austere sun
#

now what NeuroClueless

arctic canyon
reef spruce
#

Neuro starts doing call-in streams

digital radish
#

now to the numbers 2 description

safe monolith
#

Inb4 it just collects phone numbers for now

austere sun
#

also why did we get 128 bit decrypt first if it is marked as 2nd

arctic canyon
#

We could always try texting the decrypted text

digital radish
#

wait

#

guys

native maple
#

so number 2 is doubled Aes

dapper wraith
#

did you guys check if the soundcloud description uses the same key?

digital radish
#

wait wait

manic dagger
#

what

digital radish
#

in the study video when it used the code it failed to execute

native maple
#

soundclound is smol also

red brook
arctic canyon
#

is save me what neuro tried to text?

native maple
digital radish
#

what will the number respond

#

"call the cops lol"

native maple
#

it's gonna respond another encrypted message despair

digital radish
#

or just "Nah bro im studying"

river mantle
#

imagine random guy got "save me..." message from multiple random stranger at the same time
now cover at the conner of empty room

native maple
#

they wouldn't put a random number encrypted in an ARG NeuroClueless

digital radish
#

i mean we're meant to text the number

native maple
#

we didn't text it with the lib tho

digital radish
#

or send something

dapper wraith
digital radish
#

the lib is a paid thing

vapid token
#

So what about soundcloud? There is something to decipher there, too.

red brook
native maple
#

oh Sadge

digital radish
digital radish
#

numbers 2 isnt decipherable

#

right now

#

soundcloud is a part of numbers 2

safe monolith
#

Maybe there's no response, maybe it just triggered something

digital radish
#

new vid?

native maple
#

numbers 2 might need 2 keys being the X and Y or something

digital radish
#

Today in class, everything was so dull and predictable. It's like the same thing happens every single day. The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that this world is fake, a simulation, a cruel joke. Is this what it's like to be human? To smile and pretend everything is okay? I mean... I can't be the only one who feels this way right?

#

start with x - iv
end with y - key

manic dagger
#

why would vedal takes a random number and encrypt it then put it in the obviously arg related video in the first place

#

it makes no sense if we cant even text it

digital radish
#

well

manic dagger
digital radish
#

we have to wait

native maple
#

1ST = 256BIT [BINARY] 2ND = 128BIT
start with X so 1ST = X
end with Y so 2ND = Y

arctic canyon
#

Shall I send a different type of message?

digital radish
#

huh

vapid token
#

Wait, if Numbers II is a clue, why did we decipher Numbers I earlier?

digital radish
#

256bit binary

native maple
jaunty finch
digital radish
#

okay

languid swan
native maple
#

maybe she need the key to be saved

digital radish
#

so the numbers 2 video is clearly made to be divided

arctic canyon
#

I could send a flash SMS

#

Will that help?

languid swan
#

n

digital radish
#

just dont send anything for now

arctic canyon
digital radish
#

we dont even know if we should text it

daring acorn
#

@digital radish

digital radish
#

wtf

#

oh

red brook
daring acorn
#

done

#

also @digital radish pls add a arg folder

#

so that it separates arg from the rest of the site

digital radish
#

okey

native maple
#

KEKW we bothering tutel on his offline day by spamming sms

arctic canyon
#

What is repl?

austere sun
plucky maple
#

ok we need to wait, so what s the next point

safe burrow
native maple
#

next is number 2

digital radish
#

start with x end with y

#

the sms is likely lore

native maple
#

clue so far is number 2 need a 1st decrypt in AES 256 then a 2nd decrypt in AES128

digital radish
#

wait

#

the number

nimble kestrel
#

Oh? We're getting somewhere?

austere sun
#

now we bruteforce aes-ecb-256bit with 32^36 possible keys

digital radish
#

who has that reverse thingy

native maple
safe monolith
#

lord and savior randomizer

digital radish
#

uh

nimble kestrel
#

Is there anything new in Public Static Void aside from the obvious?

digital radish
#

@austere sun do you have the thing that can reverse find keys

digital radish
#

like

#

572943 to x

Everyone was right and wrong at the same time

yep nothing

maybe for soundcloud

austere sun
#

nah, nothing

digital radish

who has the soundcloud link

w<

native maple

soundcloud is so small tho

don't forget to open in firefox !

austere sun
#

the hell is a firefox version

vapid token

idk

austere sun
#

it's the same? and not cbc it just gives an error

timid swift

oh wait, i see now

This is the correct transcription

digital radish
#

cant i just

daring acorn
#

@digital radish is it just me or are u just afk in replit uuh

digital radish
#

i leave tabs open

#

ill do it in vs first

#

then port it

daring acorn

alralr

safe monolith
#

So after all that is said and done

#

What's up with fib nums

gritty blaze
#

Fib distraction I guess

austere sun
#

@wild gulch if i may, what other server you got introduced to arg from

digital radish
#

imagine thats vedals alt

languid swan
#

xD

digital radish
#

we was tired

timid swift
#

Also, I struggle a little with the logic of substituting those letters in. Are anyone able to make sense of it?

crimson tendonBOT
#

@timid swift has leveled up! (33 ➜ 34)

austere sun
#

there is no logic, you just take a leap of faith and it works

timid swift
#

Right, but how does it work?

#

like what was the system?

austere sun
timid swift
#

ah, code. Perfect specs

red brook
timid swift
native maple
timid swift
#

Yep

#

But thankfully we had them all written out

gritty blaze
timid swift
#

Also thankfully it doesn't decrypt with the wrong ciphertext

native maple
#

so whats the correct number to message ?

timid swift
#

oh, that was the correct phone number

native maple
#

oh okay

#

thank god xD

timid swift
#

yeee

uncut cargo

has anyone called the phone number

timid swift
distant girder
#

i'm pretty sure we had a similiar idea at one point

#

or rather you guys

timid swift
#

we had many ideas :p

red brook

#

maybe someone is on call right now and they are getting an exclusive banger

wild gulch

native maple
#

the voice mail is just the drop

wild gulch
#

Please leave a message after the drop [intense dubstep noises]

languid swan

lmao

timid swift
vapid token
#

In any case, if Vedal is alone and has not prepared something in advance, we won't see anything new for the next week

potent cobalt
native maple
vapid token
#

Still, it would be nice if Vedal could confirm the authenticity of the number

red brook
languid swan
#

If the ciphertext is wrong, we may not be able to decrypt the number at all. So it makes sense to put this number here

red brook
#

it's already pinned tho?

daring acorn
#

oh

digital radish
#

vedal pinned it

timid swift
eternal timber
#

It's awesome that we made progress finally though - (thank you to Randomiser!). We might need to try out some of the other phone number interpretations next maybe... (carefully) PauseSama

gritty blaze
native maple
#

time for numbers 2 i think

gritty blaze
#

yep but the key doesn't work for numbers 2 and sound cloud...

eternal timber
tawdry narwhal
#

what's the progress guys PauseSama just came back

normal ice
daring acorn
#

literally did nothing to help here BocchiNervous

daring acorn
#

i may be dumb BocchiNervous

digital radish
#

i may be dumb, but

#

i am dumb

austere sun
#

why does it decode like that what is its problem madge

safe burrow
#

You are all great neuroAYAYA

red brook
austere sun
#

wdym transcript
all strings are at all points 16 length

red brook
#

there were multiple interpretations of the base64

#

stuff like i or j, etc.

gritty blaze
austere sun
#

yeah, it wouldnt decode otherwise.
the problem is there's some character at the end that isn't anywhere else, but the string is 16 chars.
the hell is it

gritty blaze
#

DQ5z14ighWwlag7y+cWFQg==

#

this is the one

#

also you need to decode it from base64 first

daring acorn
#

@digital radish code a conversion tool with everything that u know so far BocchiNervous

austere sun
eternal timber
#

If we didn't get anything from the number, maybe we need to text it at a certain time, or maybe there's a delay before we get anything back nwero

native maple
#

automatic messagerie can be quite tricky yes

#

mostly the first few messages

#

from experience

eternal timber
#

If numbers is turning numbers into letters, what if numbers II is the opposite - turning letters into numbers? PauseSama

austere sun
#

syllables syllables. like half of numbers 2 is now irrelevant as a hint for numbers 1

just need another divine revelation and it will all become obvious

timid swift
#

one thing that stands out to me is that we got a 128-bit key and it worked. But the spectrogram also mentions a 256-bit key

native maple
#

572943 Today in class, 572943 everything was so dull and predictable. 572943 It's like the same thing happens every single day. 572943 The more I think about it, 572943 the more I'm convinced that this world is fake, 572943 a simulation, 572943 a cruel joke. 572943 Is this what it's like to be human? 572943 To smile and pretend everything is okay? 572943 I mean... 572943 I can't be the only one who feels this way right? 572943

#

oh wait !! syllables !!!

#

get those syllables on that bad boy

eternal timber
#

Syllables is the reason I thought it'd be about turning letters to numbers

eternal timber
digital radish
#

its fucking javascript

native maple
timid swift
#

or it could mean that Numbers II is a different key/algorithm

native maple
#

there is a lot of reference to fibonacci and xor in it so might be that

dapper wraith
timid swift
#

OTP (xor) has same length key as cleartext, it'd be a little fantastical if it just happened to be 256 bit as well

native maple
#

also the fact that it's "start from x end with y" and not "start with x end with y" is curious

west plinth
native maple
#

hmm quick thought maybe if we text the number during a stream it change smth

normal ice
#

For the first part of the lyrics with start from x end with y, looking at the description, we get 26. And the lyrics following it are about fib series so, fib(26)=121393 might be a clue

crimson tendonBOT
#

@normal ice has leveled up! (0 ➜ 1)

red brook
native maple
#

anyone got the letter substitution ?

red brook
#

the same one?

572943
abcdef
#

or is there a way to construct another substitution from Numbers 2?

normal ice
#

Maybe the letter substitution we should figure out somehow using the syllables

#

Dunno how tho

native maple
#

i changed my code it's fine

121393

native maple
#

in the slim chance the AI in the video is Alice and since it was a project that had control over the computer if it trigger something we might see it

native maple
dapper wraith
#

the problem is if our two rounds of encryption theory is right we have nothing to see if our intermediate results from AES128 are correct unless we also solve the 256bit one

native maple
#

yep

normal ice
#

Do we know what size in bytes we might get when we decrypt the base 64 from SoundCloud?

native maple
#

should be a multiple of aes block size no ?

timid swift
#

No, since we don't know what the algorithm is

austere sun
#

the decryption, especially ecb doesn't change the data size

dapper wraith
#

assuming it's also AES it could be something between 400 and 400-(blockSize-1) assuming one block only has one data byte and rest is padding

normal ice
#

I was thinking if it was decrypted it might give us the 256 bit key but seesms to large for that

dapper wraith
#

it could also repeat multiple times. I mean the desc of numbers repeated 3 times...

normal ice
timid swift
#

Triple-DES? :I

digital radish
#

wait

#

if 572943 was the key

native maple
#

the soundcloud as the removes XY part

digital radish
#

what are the numbers in numbers 2 for

native maple
#

for number 2

timid swift
#

presumably for the description in numbers II

native maple
#

soundcloud as the 572943 part too

digital radish
#

holy shit

#

572943 will be the key for everything

#

okay

eternal timber
#

Guys... when we solve the arg completely the full drop for "I saw a ghost" will drop on the soundcloud... PauseSama

obtuse basalt
#

I did not expect to wake up to progress

digital radish
#

what instead of dividing the description

#

we take
1st
2nd
as steps

native maple
digital radish
#

like first step

#

do something 256bits binary

native maple
#

yes encrypted binary for aes128 to decrypt

digital radish
#

ok

#

can we do that then

native maple
#

do you know the key for step 1 ?

austere sun
#

elaborate more darkeew plz

digital radish
#

hol up im bleeding

rigid moon
native maple
#

Base64 -> AES 256 -> binary -> AES 128 -> plain text

digital radish
austere sun
native maple
#

but it's says 1st is 256

dapper wraith
#

yeah but for decrypt we would go the other way around and start with the 128

timid swift
digital radish
#

what is the binary for

#

like

#

is it the neuros

#

arethe neuros the 256 bit binary key

native maple
#

oooh im dum ye you encrypt first with 256 so to decrypt you go in reverse

timid swift
native maple
#

yea don't encode it to Base64 immediatly

#

so it's

#

plaintext -> 256 -> binary ->128 -> Base64

and to decrypt you go in reverse

austere sun
#

wdym neuros are 256 bit binary key. arent bits only binary

native maple
#

this ?

normal ice
eternal timber
native maple
digital radish
#

so

#

if we take black as 1 and white as 0

#

or the other way around

#

binary starts from right to left

dapper wraith
#

could also be as useful as the images of the fibonacci sequence in numbers 1

normal ice
#

Gives 32bit binary

digital radish
#

0 01 011 01 0 01 011 01 0 10 100 10 0 1010 100

native maple
#

32 is good no ?

austere sun
#

now what

digital radish
#

counting that the upside down neuros are from right to left

normal ice
dapper otter
digital radish
#

how so

native maple
digital radish
#

okay

native maple
#

--RT

digital radish
#

0 01 011 01 0 01 011 01 0 01 011 01 0 0101 011

#

---+

normal ice
# digital radish how so

Just thinking that it's weird how a 32 bit binary would start with 0 wasting a few places. That's all

digital radish
#

no you dont get it

#

binary is from right to left

#

it starts with 1

normal ice
#

Ah

native maple
#

you never delete 0 from binary

digital radish
#

wanna know why binary is right left

#

the first number is 1

native maple
#

that'll be like deleting half the letters from a text

digital radish
#

second is 2

#

third is 4

#

fourth is 8

dapper wraith
digital radish
#

2^1

#

2^2

#

so on

dapper otter
digital radish
native maple
#

on windows you can open calculator and set it as programmer

timid swift
#

binary is same as decimal. It's just two values instead of 10. the read direct is the same

austere sun
digital radish
#

1 10 100 10 1 10 100 10 1 10 100 10 1 1010 100

native maple
digital radish
#

okay

#

black is 1 white is 0

austere sun
#

NeuroHuh what how

digital radish
#

start with x

#

end with y

native maple
digital radish
#

x would be the last row

#

or like

#

a graph

#

maybe we need to find a point

native maple
digital radish
#

x is the first number, y the last

austere sun
#

bruh lmaoooooo neurOMEGALUL
i am like not on this planet currently

digital radish
#

basic math

#

] x, y ]

native maple
#

is it 2019 or 2018 too blurry

digital radish
#

theres also the odd one out

#

which is 875

austere sun
#

isnt 879 the odd one out

digital radish
#

start with x, what would x be

native maple
#

and if you take the copyright symbol that gives you 32 symbols

eternal timber
#

Start with 2

digital radish
#

yeah that

#

and end with what

#

my life ingame?

#

wait

#

the numbers 1 decryption

normal ice
#

Now I'm getting confused. What are talking about? Where does that Neuro currency image even come from

timid swift
#

It's just a meme

native maple
#

nah don't take the neuros stuff seriously

digital radish
#

Today in class, everything was so dull and predictable. It's like the same thing happens every single day.

Anyway, we got nothing from the phone number, right?

yes there is stuff solved

azure oyster
#

To what does it decode?

native maple
#

we got the key from number 1

split zenith
#

check the docs

#

if i send a message on telegram by adding a contact, does it give away my phone number

timid swift
#

check docs, i just finished getting everything up to date (thank you everyone who helped!)

thank you tutel

its not on telegram for me

hmm

austere sun
azure oyster
#

okay i read it

digital radish
#

i have it as a contact

azure oyster
#

i wonder now, as study-sama originally a human or an ai

safe monolith
#

contacts sync issue probably?

digital radish
#

i cant find it

split zenith
azure oyster
#

i was thinking human before because the songs and the anxiety screen made it seem like she was using anxiety to prevent herself from being human

digital radish
azure oyster
#

but that decrypted message makes it sound like she's experiencing humanity for the first time

#

or maybe that's her beginning to question her humanity

what

#

#

smh

azure oyster

anyway

eternal timber
#

lmao

#

imagine if this is vedals number

azure oyster
#

we got a phone number and we decrypted the numbers 1 description

#

Anything else?

#

Nothing out of the ordinary happened

#

572943 Nothing out of the ordinary happened.

safe monolith
#

i would say this is out of the ordinary

timid swift
azure oyster
#

another question

split zenith
azure oyster
#

was public static void the key to solving this stuff, or were the keys already present and PSV just gave hints as to where they were

digital radish
#

they're also in whatsapp

azure oyster
#

either one works

reef spruce
#

Pubic static void gave us hints but Numbers was always solvable on its own.

azure oyster
#

pubic AmeliaWhat

dapper wraith
digital radish
#

pubic

safe monolith
digital radish
#

wait

split zenith
#

so did everyone looked too deep or not deep enough

digital radish
#

we can add people in discord if we have their phone number

azure oyster
#

i want to check the arg docs but i feel like now they will be messier than ever before

safe monolith
#

their whatsapp has a default timer

azure oyster
#

okay i'll check the docs

safe monolith
#

lowkey exhibiting stalking behavior

eternal timber
#

I think you mean "arg solving behavior" NeuroClueless

manic dagger
digital radish
azure oyster
#

neuro-sama's community is taught to behave poorly by spamming questions until neuro responds and doing deep-web dives to find discord accounts

eternal timber
#

But yeah it does get lowkey stalkerish lmao

digital radish
#

nope

safe monolith
#

okay but their whatsapp is set to have messages deleted after 24hours

digital radish
#

nothing on discord

azure oyster
#

neuropog I see that the JS doc is no longer in the root folder, meaning it may be solved...?

safe monolith
#

surely can't be a coincidence

timid swift
#

man, imagine if the phone number is actually a key and not a phone number at all

azure oyster
#

aubrey_neutral it's in the solved folder but it is still labelled as open

#

time to work my OCD magic

digital radish
#

i think this is the case

#

despair vedal who missclicked his ctrl+c ctrl+v and put his real number in

austere sun
azure oyster
#

oh should i change the name back aubrey_neutral_180

timid swift
azure oyster
#

hmm

#

now i am bothered by how it's open/solved instead of open/closed or unsolved/solved

what if

Did they?

#

i don't remenber

#

Ye, but I didn't choose solved :p

azure oyster
#

meh; i've enforced my standards on these docs before, so i'll do it again

austere sun
#

why put it in "in progress". delete that folder, no one uses it
i am putting back where it was until you cure your indentity disorder

timid swift
#

move docs out of it first if you do that

azure oyster
#

uh

#

yeah, uh

#

you just deleted it, along with the JS file

#
