#Neuro ARG

Azaka ? D: you don't know ??
most likely, the Telegram account that was found recently (Telegram ID: 6175915359) was created not so long ago (bots to "check the approximate date of registration" say April or June, I personally assume that March or April).
but it will be very funny if Telegram is not connected to ARG.
results from "bots to check approximate registration date:"
https://ibb.co/dcY4j7B
https://ibb.co/s2PfzH9
thanks for the metadata check
it is impossible to know the exact date of registration because of Telegram's peculiarities (user IDs are not sequential and are generated by a special algorithm)
(sorry for the possible inaccuracy, I am using a translator xd)
arg video were like 27april so checks out
This number also has WhatsApp
is that just a singular space 
might just be a number for rent so the previous owner before vedal created tg and whatsapp
nothing xd
OMG CLOWN
multiple spaces 
im very sure we're going off track sicne i dont hink that whatsapp and telegram are
related to this

ping him right now then, use your privilege
what privilege
if it is him, vedal's probably just sending single spaces to be spooky 
the rules say not to ping for no reason
but this is certainly reason enough
We've sent our fair share of messages already, so I think it's a good time to stop first
@wispy plinth is it okay to mention vedal to ask if the phone number we got from the clue is not someone that we're accidentally doxxing
also not too sure about doxxing, since the number is public info
I'm catching up on the docs ATM but nice to see we got progress
we haven't uncovered other personal information other than the number, and the fact that two chat accounts exist
just gotta wait for the response
could you imagine the odds of us decrypting a random phone number ?
Have we tried sending a message through that message media service?
"that was not the key what the fuck did you do" - vedal
wanna pay 50 euros
it's not free it seems
Oh
You don't even want to know how often I normalize documents lmao. It keeps boiling back, especially new fun fonts.
okay
lets get back on topic
numbers 2
the 1st step has do do with 256bit binary
did he actually say this
but if we decrypt the first step might be 128bit thats what we talked about earlier
right
but i think this is actually the other way around
anyone has the spectorgramf a fkkefse
a gergkwegjsew
wefweg
you've probably already thought of this, but have you tried putting the phone number into the JS code
you good ? use the stroke check on the website
not free
it camre positiigv
hlep
if the number is relevant, maybe it will only give a hint if we use the code with it
sotkr
That phone number belongs to the arg. We're not doxing anyone. It's a hard lead. This isn't like that pizza place in that big arg
okay
thank you
so
the reason i say the 1st step is the 1st
its because its not
the 2nd step is the first
yes
tequila
kekekakakaka
sometimes I question my sanity by reading darkeew's messages 
as we discussed before, it could be because first step is the first encryption step, so it'd be the second decryption step
you should worry about my sanity
we are, trust
im about to burn 71 neuro plushies
response por favor 
to this
the fact that it mentions that the 128 bit steps results in the numbers 2 description might support that idea
who the fuck made the horrible python script
like
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str
imagine
being this bad
to not know what this is
so if we do 256 and 128 the output goes down to a 112 length
1bac0fdd0d0e0cde
I don't follow? why does it get smaller here?
but the output of AES is as long as it's input isn't it? (aside from padding)
mayb i got too many null byte ?
Oh, so it's clippermi 
nice
dark, you know about all that nice horizontal space in chat right?
wdym?
first name who?
I put that everywhere because I'm too lazy to make up a nickname xd
It's a meme about one of the clippers here on the discord, I'm not gonna reveal who it is just cause it's more funny that way
no relation to you :p
okay :D

the numbers in numbers 2 are useless

Dark, do you need a cookie or something. Maybe a spreadsheet? lel
what if you remove the spaces between groups

this is becoming a numbers weather station

what are we checking them for?
words
Could syllables refer to binary where a syllable being 0/1?
It could be anything until otherwise proven

We're trying to determine if we're on the right track or if we're about to bother someone.
I personally don't believe the phone number could be some random person's phone number -- the way it was decrypted leaves too much evidence that it's part of the ARG. AES decryption doesn't just magically spit our random data, much less a phone number.
Even so some, and I gotta say fair concern, are wondering if we should ask Vedal for advice so we don't accidentally bother someone.
Also, dark, I still have no idea what all the numbers you post mean :p
i think it is useless to match numbers 2 digit dump to anything, its primary purpose was likely just to point to numbers 1 key cipher and that's all
I was thinking that since most words have one or two syllables in numbers 2

omg
nothing
I think the same, but we gotta try stuff. Like the letter substitution was such a reach.
if you want to thoroughly try, bruteforce aes 128 and then aes 256, it's only 2^384 
and then passing it to the decryption algorithm as UTF8 instead of hexadecimal?? man.. I would've never gotten there
i think people have been doing that day 2 
actually if we got bred to try letter substitution back then it would've been solved already 
the only problem with that was that the number is only 6 digits, but abcdefg is 7 letters
It's always that one last thing
message could not be loaded
Yeah I think that was our issue with numbers 1 - we had the solution but we had no way of confirming it or knowing what to further do with it
but substituting the numbers for letters that very specific way? Did we ever try that?
Or well not an issue it's a given, we were just missing some key info I guess
You could say we did 1+1, we didn't do 1+2 
once able to focus in on that one interpretation of the other instructions, the substitution was easier to find. Even then it was a (welcome) outsider who found it 
no, becuase there is no reason to think 6 digits would match 7 letters.
it could've been any 6 letters.
there is no logic to it other than "matching all the letters"
as we said in the first week, we were overlooking something rather simple 
yes, it's such a reach. It's evidence that we gotta try the divergent
you could even say neuro divergent
ahah lmao, insanity
like, is "Matching all the letters" the only hint for "this step is not in the right order, so after you've done all the following steps, replace the numbers 572943 with ABCDEF (G means nothing), oh by the way it must be lowercase letters and we didn't give you lyric captions"?
numbers doc moved to closed, but a solution wasn't even posted there. what's with you people
Solutions at the bottom?
who has summoned meow
it's only the solution for the description
why is the solution in the bottom
bread
congratulations, you've almost seen the future
lol
everything we did day one was correct x)
"everything"
enigma machine has solution in the middle, malbolge doesn't even have a solution section, neither does supernatural human
stop preaching consistency when there isn't any. i am moving solution to the top and no one dare move it back
i put solution at the top but someone moved it
What's wrong with the solution at the bottom and a link to the solution at the top?
idk
because it is completely unintuitive and unnecessary
Wouldn't it be more untuitive to have it out of cronological order?
You start a story at the start, and finish at the conclusion
but no other part of the doc is in chronological order wdyem
oh, so let's make it even more unorderly, then, is it?
no, put what matters at the top and the 0.01% that wants to see analysis and unsuccessful attempts can scroll down to relevant section or ctrl+f
I don't think we're gonna agree on this
nobody read the docs anyway it's just for posterity sake to make sure we have a trace of what was found
also, we've been designating CLOSED and SOLVED to have two different meanings. Let's not conflate the two now
it's because we have troll stuff that isnt solved just found out to be trolls
chronological with table of contents with links at the top is the best format IMO
and luckily for us, google docs already puts a table of content at the sidebar
oh right
at least when headers are used right
which they definitely are not ever always
google docs is definitely not the optimal tool for this
It's a good tool for collaboration, especially among people of such a wide range of skills and preferences
everybody kinda hates it, but everyone knows how it works
I would've preferred tiny wiki-like articles in Obsidian, some would've preferred something with git, heck, probably someone might've preferred jira tickets
it's a little like democracy when you think about it -- it kinda sucks, but it's for the best ok, sorry, no more politics
Meanwhile, I'm still trying to figure out how I would've made the substitution reach. Like it's so far, what the hecc
we tried substitution at the start but as you saw since one letter was left alone we tought it was incorrect
yes. For G to be cut off and it then not be hexadecimal
that's completely ignored in the solution, right?
no, doesn't add another line mean add another "1", and the thing with finding all the numbers
amarok, aren't you the one that told me this, what is this
what im saying is in 572943 there isn't already a 1, so the keword "another" is kinda ignored
awchually
what if it's telling us to run another number through the algorithm, and THAT number has a 1? We're still looking for the other key hinted in the spectrogram, right?
no it's about the solution we found
what if there's another that can be run through it as well?
thats not out of the question
the starting number needs to be 22 digits long if you want to get 32 characters on output, it's basically impossible to guess which it could be
@austere sun has leveled up! (11 ➜ 12)
yea i think we want to use fibonnaci to generate large numbers
integers that give 22 digit long fibs, that's all
any that give 32 long ?
22
32 digits
it also says "add another six" when there is no six there
we could try those as keys for Numbers II and SoundCloud descriptions. The 22 digit ones should be run through the Numbers (one) algorithm.
so we're not doing aes 128 first?
oh, you're right. There are two options here. Either it's a sequence, or it's stand alone.
this is why I always get confused. There are so many loose threads to pull at
can try the key from number 1 for 128

what are we looking for? decoded text? magic numbers?
the other one gave plain text so that for now
for this, 32 digit long fibs nothing then
do i match all letters to 572943? or maybe match them to key?
matching 22 digits to 572943 gives nothing either
i make all of them matche letter yes in case it needs it
but yeah, basically nothing, even with my fake binwalk.
as one would reasonably expect.
numbers 2 probably has it's own cipher, evidenced by cipher.numbers2.array() and not just numbers2.array()
the only thing is, there is even less information to extract cipher from than before because half of lyrics are either clearly irrelevant or are for numbers 1 cipher
Does the fact it says “.array” mean anything?
It didn’t include the array part when referring to numbers 1.
I think it just refers to the numbers we got from the video
The 201 1321...
tried a bunch of combo but no luck yea
i just thought about something stupid, but since there's apparently pretty good japanese in psv, and alex is the one teaching vedal japanese pronunciation, maybe alex knows something related 
last time Alex showed up saying he has knowledge about music so people started doing music theory but it led nowhere
also can't forget about the D incident
last time alex showed up #1112082183235047506 message on world.execute(me)
how to start reaching even harder
Honestly, that line makes me think that the puppet master is reading this thread and is inventing the story as they go along, inserting a healthy dose of our fan theories :p
exactly what haachama did, actually
It's a clue! :schizo:
congrats on making progress everyone, i don’t talk much here at all because math and cryptography and stuff goes way over my head. i’m just here for lore and music, but if anything comes up related to music theory i’m willing to jump in!
also i think i saw someone mentioning trying to make a cover of numbers or i don’t want to be an engineer. if whoever it was finishes that, could you send me the base files if possible? i was trying to transcribe engineer by ear and it went so poorly i shut down synthv and have not opened it since
omg do you have the vsq or midi?
i have an flp and i can try to export it to midi
i would appreciate that so much! i’m going away this week and need something to work on during the 12 hour car ride 
what'cha gonna do with it?
i should note that i am a perfectionist though so i will probably continue finding little errors in this and fixing them
i wanted to try covering it myself with eleanor forte partly to figure out whether it’s her voice or not. mostly for my own curiosity and also because every one of these songs is an absolute BANGER
that’s such a mood, even with “finished” covers i find myself finding little flaws no one else sees
for example, i'm pretty sure there are a few chords what i have missed or something
i don’t want to derail the arg discussion too much more, but i get what you mean. like i said, i gave up trying to find the chords myself cause i kept finding things i missed. guess that’s part of the arg experience tho 
here ya go
aw, it seems it didn't include the time signature changes
i wonder whether i can include those
full version songs in complete neuro ARG album with the long awaited I think I saw a ghost drop
thank you! also my dms should be open if you ever want to talk about vocal synth stuff! and i think even if the time signatures were included, synthv fucks them up half the time, at least on my mac
ah, okey
ah! i did see that too, thank you! miku’s english sounds so clear, is this her english bank?
Have we tried sending save me to the number per WhatsApp?
i.e., notes are broken down into tiny chunks
if it's been tried, it hasn't been documented. I'd do it myself, but I chose to live a life that whatsapp apparently does not agree with.
apparently i MUST have a smartphone, tablet is not good enough. Thanks for not being weird about it, telegram
WTF I missed that
Nice shoutout
You could try running WhatsApp in bluestacks
yeah but.. that's.. why can't they just be nice 
It's owned by meta, what do you expect?
The neurogram number saw my message 💀 time to apologize profusely for disturbing them with a random thing related to the arg
uninstalls immediately.
Or well just not bother them anymore I guess
ahhhhh I thought it was a clue
How long did it take until they saw it?
Idk, didn't check it for a while
waiting for a response 
right, but not immediately?
Yup
can't check the read time like in whatsapp ?
Not as far as I know but I'm not a big telegram user
not that i think it'll work any better, but ya' know
the telegram might just have been created by a previous owner/renter of the number (idk if thats how it works)
ah that’s alright, i think i’ll have my hands full with numbers for a while anyways
but really it sounds great, miku english always sounds like she has rocks in her mouth when i use her
alright, they saw my message after less than a minute, but not immediately
and then i tabbed out to write that and now my message is gone? Is that normal telegram behaviour?
Oh really... interesting. I wonder if it's actually related to the arg or not now lmao
no ??
they might have deleted the convo
you can delete chat log for both users on telegram
This makes me think it's an actual person in which case rip
Interesting
you are not worthy of a chat log, bread
I haven't apologized yet though
if(username == "BreadTh") TelegramChat.delete()
It's one of those things where if it's a regular person I want to clarify the situation but I also don't want to bother them any further
But if it's related to the ARG... idk
maybe we'll get more clues
again, i suggest: have we tried plugging the phone number into the JS code
you can get a free trial but eeeh
Yes, i thought about that too. But what i come back to is.. how will it be different from a regular SMS?
plus I don't have a (sending) phone number that'll work with that service
idk maybe they add headers to it ? but i don't think so and im lazy to read the documentation
Could just be to indicate it's a phone number, nothing else. But I'm not saying you're wrong. We should try it
how else would it be identified as a phone number though?
maybe it's an automated response and it only responds when the message is sent from the JS code
we don't have any response
... yes, that lines up with what i said 
actually i think telegram and whatsapp have been specifically set up so that people dont have to spend money on international sms
but if you have 50 euros ready, go ahead
yea
50 neuros
surely there's someone br*tish here who can run some JS
the sending service takes +44 numbers
vedal already don't want us to spend money on neuro so if we start buying an API just to send SMS he gonna scream at us
yes, it does feel kinda pay to win
Well if I get a reply to my "save me..." message and I'm not in the middle of something or sleeping I'll share it here, other than that... I guess we'll wait and see? 
Vedal did say "This shit stretches into the past and future" so maybe we'll have things get more clarified over time - I don't mean stop searching, I mean - don't get dissuaded and be patient 😤
also.. we might just not get a response since it would mean they would have to send a SMS which might cost money, it might just be set up as a reciever and trigger
you need to spend time doing the extra tuning; play around with the parameters, splitting the notes, and experimenting with phonetics
I was also thinking that, like typing in the correct thing would auto-release a video or a music track on the soundcloud. But haven't seen any of those yet
Did anyone else try writing something else than "save me..." to the telegram, or was that just me?
someone said yo i think
save yourself
or some of the cleartexts of the other challanges, like the ANEXITY text, or the malbolge result
yeah makes sense, i just don’t have the patience or the actual knowledge of the vocaloid engine itself lmao, i think i got rin sounding halfway decent once and was like “good enough”. the ui of vocaloid 4 is not my favorite 
mabloge
no one wrote mabloge
i did just now
invalid
maybe they delete the convo on telegram because it wasn't the correct message to send 
yes, that's what I thought too, but darkeew also sent conversational messages
unless yo are you scared to answer was the correct key all along
blink at this user
Vibrate at this user
Does two lines mean read in telegram? isn't it like... one line sent on my end, another line recieved, blue when it's read?
i think yea
Though I'm thrown off by white lines for Darkeew
2 lines any colour mean read in telegram, the blue white is whatsapp thing
they're too scared
We might just need to wait and try sending texting during stream
Or maybe it'll take a while for it to compose a reply (like during a... stream? video release? lunar eclipse?)
where did you get this
yes, no answer
stop
update
audacity, it has a spectrogram view
inb4 it's literally just a random guy and they got harrassed by a bunch of strangers
no
1sec, uploading screenshot
is it part of the video or nah
it's a spectrogram of the audio during the time where the key generation was shown
ok thanks
time to calculate the odds of finding a random guy phone frome a encrypted Base64 found in an ARG
if you listen closely you can even hear it, it's those chirping sounds in the background
hi i'm new here but i've got a question about that phone number, whether anyone's second or latter message has been read? if no does it mean each person has only one chance?
@inland spindle has leveled up! (0 ➜ 1)
message been read some reaction happened but no answer
Would be funny if the number belonged to someone vedal doesn't like and we are unknowingly harrassing them
new mille song if fire 🔥🔥🔥
the question is why there is a message destruction timer...
Wait, a contact has a name in whatsapp
They manually set it?
yea
i think you need to be friend to get more info on their account ?
JACK 
it was not displayed before
it's jack vedal guys
world.execute(neuro) 
Vedals real name confirmed
doxing vedal was not part of our plans
But of his apparently
it has already been mentioned in the articles
it wasn't a meme he actually is called Jack 
He leaked it a while ago on his website
Or rather he had his name there before neuro was a thing
So it's save to assume the whatsapp is connected to the arg
Okay, so the number exactly is associated with the ARG. I'll assume that it's really worth calling during the stream
aint no way he actually gave his #
so what, are people getting filtered out by having their chats deleted, and only chosen ones remain
It could be a burner phone?
It's probably a burner
i do see a theme, _neurosama and ~JACK
yea for sure
~ symbol seems to write whatsapp itself, but I can't be 100% sure
it didnt have a name before
so why did _neurosama try to ask JACK to save her


i hate it if it is
when is the vedal's onlyfans lore arc?
Evil Neuro death metal album on soundcloud arc when 
wait can we check some socials for ~jack maybe ? or is ~ not a valid char for most username
The ~ symbol is not bound and is written by the application itself, it displays the name specified by the user himself,
proof: https://ibb.co/Bfw832D
no way you're believing this right? it's not even ~jack, it's separated by space like ~ jack
good to know so it's just a custom display name
@native maple has leveled up! (14 ➜ 15)
what if Vedal collects a database of phone numbers for spam xd
abandoned archive mailing list 
What if the ARG is one big campaign before the game comes out 
it doesn't say jack for me. i think you're lying somewhere.
but it does say that messages to this user will be deletd after 24 hours.
(hopefully i haven't doxxed myself in the process of looking this up)
This is most likely a privacy setting, or a feature of Whatsapp.
but how would you bypass the setting then ?
I would check but I don't want to potentially dox myself lol
maybe it was the self-destruct time setting that contributed to this? in any case i can open this, conventionally, on the screen demonstration, LOL
But I don't have the photoshop skills to fake a screenshot, ahaha
why would it be jack only on whatsapp then. what special privileges whatsapp has over telegram or regular sms
idk
isn't it just a username you enter in whatsapp? or am i missing something here
for you contact's name, the name you've set appears above the number. for non-contacts it shows their username with a tilda below the phone number.
for me it just shows +44 ... and under it again +44 ...
so ~JACK is the username, no?
Eh, I trust you. It would be nice if we could reproduce it tho
JACK is the username, no tilda.
i would like to see it on discord. do it
xd
Poor bread
puppet master's got a vendetta on me QQ Now I know who it is (:<
Ur getting silenced for the knowledge you know lol
Ok, I'll say it's------
try deleting the contact name
if you saved the number in your contacts with a name already, you wont see the original whatsapp username
In any case, it is better to confirm that it is not photoshopped (I do not know why it is uploaded as Shorts)
cause it was short. And phone shaped.
probably also the fact that it is vertical, but okay, that's not important and goes beyond the topic
wait, i just deleted the contact from telegram chat and it now says aaron lie
what
did telegram forward me to some random person
it was originally written that way
At least when I checked it
i don't see why someone would fake something like that anyway
don't you assign your own names to contacts on telegram?
yeah, but i deleted the contact thinking maybe i can add contact somewhere else without a name, but now i am in empty chat with some aaron lie 
someone you never talked to before? lel
aaron is a lie
at 17:32 (UTC+3, Moscow time), the name of the contact in Telegram was Aaron Lie
proof in the form of messages sent (sorry for the Russian language, content does not matter): https://ibb.co/7pm4Xv6
I'm not really following
so it probably was this and then vedal remenbered telegram exist so he loged in and changed the username 
wait, is the username different now on telegram?
wait are we talking about telegram or whatsapp im lost
we seem to talk about everything and a little bit at a time
What if we need to repeat this code with a phone number 
a little bit of everything, all of the time
the name is JACK on whatsapp, and the name was aaron lie on telegram i think
i aaron encrypted maybe ?
but how do you see names on telegram? Don't you assign your own names to contacts?
(without space) t.me/ +447537130663
oh duh, i deleted the contact too trying to get that to work. Can confirm it says Aaron Lie
Oops, I misunderstood the question. I think I need English courses.
...i need have to stop trusting the translator
Could "Aaron lie" be an anagram?
I kinda doubt it imo since this might be a whole red herring
also did anyone in the UK sent an actual sms ?
it's also possible that it's a former phonenumber owner's name :s
aaron lie just a vedal's real name, we can google it and get https://ibb.co/nmM0jrQ XDDDDD
seems to match 
if it is a burner phone, it is quite possible actually that the telegram and whatsapp have come pre-set up with names
it doesn't look like a femboy turtle
maybe we need to use OSINT to find some other Aaron Lie's account where there will already be a clue
but I'm more inclined to the theory of a call during a stream to trigger something
no doxxing x)
ye, looking into it might be worthwhile, but let's keep a lid on it before sharing with everyone until we're sure it's related
tried to run it through an anagram checker, these are all the words it came up with
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/859104023562027019/1121884867748184217/anagram_aaron_lie.txt
using only dictionary words
https://ingesanagram.com/ also comes up with Elianora
Areola in
I will assume that I was able to see the contact's name in Whatsapp because the account owner had set up self-destructing messages, Whatsapp thought it was the beginning of a conversation and loosened the privacy settings.
Or the account owner accidentally added me to the contacts, which caused the privacy settings to be loosened.
I think the Whatsapp topic can be closed for now. I'll try to keep an eye out for possible name changes.
or at least the name thing probably can
shouldnt you be anagramming for another name rather than dictionary words.
the whatsapp username was probably always there, no one just looked before
truth is i could not find an anagram solver that also has name support
we can focus on the other video we got study and number II, are we sure nothing is unsolved in study ?
the phone number is techincally in study
Besides that tho ? I didn't touch study at all
no, i don't think we have any warm leads in study other than that. It'd have to be something we missed then
nothing else in study.
we can try solving psv
i think no one even went through brightened frames, but if there isn't anything obvious there is probably nothing.
it's on my mind to go through with opencv myself, but that's literally gigabytes of frames and i keep putting it off. i wish darkeew shared his algorithm he used for study
Would numbers 2 have the 256 bit and the 128 bit encryption, or just 128 (according to the spectrogram)?
one theory is that it's first round 256bit into second round 128
Im thinking maybe the 256 [binary] would be related to that sequence from numbers 2, but I'm not sure how it'll relate
oh you mean binary refers to the binary we see on video
Yeah
WOAH
could you link the cyberchef?
yes
the what, the what sister
full giant recipe link
YOOOOOOO
whats the deal with sister
sister doesn't answer phone
but those are calls, not messages
also damn, i guess static-sama and study-sama confirmed 2 characters
she's not answering my calls
just like the number that we decrypted XD
I don't even remember where that binary is from
Tyty
oh wait arent those neuros
binary is from the counting neuros dancing
ah fuck i was so close. i was even thinking getting them inverted. but i didn't
what seriously
I can't believe that absolutely lovely but also batshit insane interpretation was right
yea i tried them from bottom up and the first one was the actual good one

need 128 now
or aaron lie will come for you
bruteforce time 
maybe i can appropriate bred's rust code for this knowing absolutely no rust
i tried f(26) passed througth algorithm
our second one is decoding the first
okay
i do have an idea
all the numbers in numbers 2 + 572943
right
the start from x end with y may come in handy now
maybe there is a clue in the lyrics of i don't want to be an engineer ?
???
Are u good?
stroke check
Great Job!
probably solution is video public void? the secret number combining of number1 and number2
idk
n = "2" + n
n += "9"
n += "1"
n = str(int(n) * 5)
n += "6"
n = n[::-1]
n = n.replace('2', '3')
n = str(int(n) * 9)
n += "2"
n += "4"
n = "17" + n
return n
def match_all_letters(s: str) -> str:
alph = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
numbers = '579243'
tr_set = str.maketrans(numbers, alph[:len(numbers)])
return s.translate(tr_set)```
change 579243 to 572943
sorry i messed that up
wasnt gonna use that anyways
public static void main(String[] args) {
String str = "121393";
str = numbers1(str);
System.out.println(str);
str = letters(str);
System.out.println(str);
System.out.println(str.length());
}
public static String numbers1(String str) {
str = "2" + str;
str += "91";
str = String.valueOf(new BigInteger(str).multiply(BigInteger.valueOf(5)) );
str += "6";
str = new StringBuilder(str).reverse().toString();
str = str.replaceAll("2", "3");
str = String.valueOf(new BigInteger(str).multiply(BigInteger.valueOf(9)) );
str = "17"+str+"24";
return str;
}
public static String letters(String str) {
str = str.replaceAll("5","a");
str = str.replaceAll("7","b");
str = str.replaceAll("2","c");
str = str.replaceAll("9","d");

str = str.replaceAll("3","f");
return str;
}
for java users
for java users with python variable names :p
hey var names are var names :p
for(int i =2; i <= numbers2.length; i++){ numbers2[i] += numbers1(secret number); } maybe?
vedal waking up to us solving everything
we can do it guys quick
Oh god the sigil ARG
solved with the power of Aaron Lie
solved with the power of JACK
powerjack
aaron jack
17e8bbf0470d7bf4
she never came home huh 
plot twist: missing sister was stuffed into a neuro-sama body and forced to stream
We got this darkeew
send the number
oh god the first few lyrics of numbers make so much sense nooooow "i"m scared to let you go"
+447537130663
yup i tried first
thought 130663 could give us smt
wait
waitwait
are you sure its fully decoded
what do you mean?
its throwing out gang signs at the end
i mean yea, but what if we need to continue with a different cipher?
it's padding
Start from X. End with Y. Remove XY + odd one out
wait, we're talking about this, right?
this is the clue for our next key
just change the mode to ECB instead of ECB/nopadding it clear it
does remove XY + odd one out mean remove XY and remove odd one out, or remove XY and add odd one out?
okay so we starting to understand the lore
the sister sending the sms with "help me"
i dont mean the cr spam at the end, i mean the base64 string after the cleartext
this is just step 2
i'm confused now 
look at the spectogram on the first page. we did step 1 now we need step 2 https://docs.google.com/document/d/1YaYAVWfOIgxDCFRkKlu4sp_yvYKKA4Qqydi_kddYGJE/edit
we got a clue on the newest video that there is 2 steps for this encrypted text, first step is AES 256 [binary] which we figured out, second step is 128 AES which is the encrypted text left
nvrm yea im with you, sorry
it's fine
also, maybe dumb question, but what are the different modes on AES?
next time we attempt to bruteforce it we should search for ... instead of just utf8 decode. seems like every cleartext we find contains it at least once
true 
modes
||AES modes are so different they might as well just all be called by different names without the AES connection.||
the only one that matter is ECB since it's the easiest no IV needed
well, until tutel switches things up
worth a shot
now only syllables are left unsolved basically. how to turn syllables into 16 byte keys
so was the "save me" from the little sister ?
that seems to be the running theory
personally I though that we sent it to our sister. since the code is about sending a SMS not receiving one
sorry for dumb question, but what do we need the syllables for?
why is the older sister named JACK or Aaron Lie 
she sold her phone to pay for studies 
sister with a secret 
decoding the second part of the code
maybe
second part of the code need a key of 16 length
okay but why exactly the syllables?
we just need to search everywhere
the docs just got filled with syllable counts one day with no real explanation

numbers II video mentions syllables
when that dropped, we started counting
i get that part, but it didnt really mention anything to do with them, right?
it just seems like syllables, make it work, yeah just means 'syllable, make it rhyme, yea' to me
it says "make it work"
just git gud and make it work
holy no way
actual progress?
it's as crazy as any other theory. It shouldn't be hyperfixated on and it shouldn't be forgotten
not just once but twice! (check the timeline)
Guy... any progress tod.... holy sheetttttt
so numbers 1 is done?
now we're trying to get the 2nd part of numbers 2?
Neuro ARG popping off today
Yeah
I think
yup and we got phone number but no response but the 1st part of number 2 says there is no call answered so it make sense
we still gonna try during a stream tho
no way you are going to be gatekept from an answer by waiting for the number to respond
surely that won't be the case
oh
next stream is evil stream 
what if start from X mean the x coordiante which we did and end with y mean the y coordinate so we get the binary for the column
oh it just 1111 
ok yea nah that was dum
wait, no one last thing unsolved is eye flitter
is it the time to use the LDEH 
it's LDEV 
Whats ldev?
Oh lol
L dev = vedal that got sponser by BAYC
also has that binary for numbers 2 desc been tried on soundcloud desc
i have, it doesn't work
this is exciting
wait, so if the binary sequence read as utf8 is the 256 bit key, then does that mean that we're done with public static void?
still need part 2 no ? and there is a bunch of lyrics
not yet. looks like this is what 2nd stage is alluding to
that's not in public static void, tho
Have we used the 16 numbers anywhere?
1.5
it is, it's in spectogram
dude, that's what I'm saying
we now have that key, so is there anything else in public static void now?
lyrics
how are we done with psv then? by that logic we've been done with it ever since it released
I'm asking, why you gotta be on the offensive always,pfc?
i mean people started closing numbers because we solved the desc
i am not offensive, i literally do not comprehend your line of thought, what are you even talking about
not offensive, on the offensive -- accusatory
bread means that everything that we needed from psv has been extracted, do we need to solve anything else from it or, or are we done with it?
pretty sure there is a second cipher?
ye, but the lyrics is a good point
Isn't that in numbers II?
yeah
that doesn't make it any clearer, you know.
those things have been extracted as the video released, why would it suddenly be done now of all times
not that it's done suddenly now, but that if we got everything from it, we can shift our focus to another clue we havent figured out yet
yeah what about the 128 bit key thingy
im trying to keep up but its pretty hard
so excuse me lol
It's the algorithm from Numbers (one) lyrics. A kind outsider came and dropped a hint for how to read it using public static void
You mean Numbers II's description's second part?
wait is the binary thing the 128 bit key?
yup
wasnt binary 256 and now we need 128?
^ am thinking this
128 wasn't specified
yes, as silver says
now we need a 128 key which is 16 char long
yup
no we have the 128 key, don't we?
so why dont we try it
the binary for 256 was 32 long of 1 and 0
as anyone tried it?
i did, yeah
1bad0fcabc1ebdce this thing
no the 256 gave us another thing to decode with 128
pretty sure it was
no valid key found yet
doesn't work on any of the unknown base64s
Oh I mean if it was binary or not
aw damn
thats the one for numbers 1 (and the phone number) not for numbers 2 part 2
the spectogram cut short so no idea what specific
there was a key that solved the first part of the numbers ii desc, which was in binary
Yes, I'm talking about public static void
I did the sleep thing right after numbers 1 desc was decoded. What'd I miss?
we used the binary to solve the numbers II desc with 256, which gave us some lore and a new thing to decrypt
well clearly i missed that
desc 2 decoded partially
we need to do that with 128 bit, so we need to find a 16 byte key
Another ciphertext appeared after decryption?
We don't actualy know if the second half is 128 bit
y’all went proper schizo
yeah, it's on docs
and we have a 16 byte key already, but it doesn't work. 1bad0fcabc1ebdce
the description decoded yields both a cleartext and a ciphertext
i mean 1st = 256BIT [binary] 2nd = 128BIT
1st Numbers, 2nd numbers
but we used it on the 2nd video
We haven't used the lyrics in numbers 2 right
Ah, so the ciphertext of number2 has been decrypted before, I thought it was just decrypted
not really, just the neuro binary
we used the numbers that got listed
partially correct. The numbers reappear in public static void, and were important there
is it possible that we literally dont have the rest of the arg?
that would be difficult to believe
we used that to fill in blanks in static void, but not to decrypt anything
I would assume that the numbers are important in number2 it self
no
oh boy, the schizo is back
none of the keys we found so far seem to work on the soundcloud
tried, but unsuccesful
ah damn it
psv tells us how to use the lyrics on numbers I on the numbers from numbers II, but that's it
soundcloud must be later into the arg...
did y’all check out the X?
what x
public static void -> numbes -> numbers 2 -> numbers 2 step 2 -> soundcloud?
thou there's also the spectrogram
talking about the X below 128bits
i think they mean following the instructions of numbers 2?
yeah
oh thats the first part of nubers 2 desc
guh?
having the 1st=256bit and 2nd=128bit refer to numbers 1 and 2 doesn't make much sense since numbers 1 used the 128bit key and numbers 2 the 256bit one. makes much more sense if it refers to first step of numbers 2 uses 256bit key and step 2 uses (another) 128bit key
ugh, no way-
no idea
nothing yet , pretty sure
probably does
Now we're talking sense. Good call
all the numbers are probably important as always
that makes a lot of sense
we need to figure out what the start from X end with Y stuff mean, no?
X does mean something
since the actual video showed numbers 1 hints pretty sure
thats what we are saying
Could it be finding syllables that sound like x and y and count the ones in between?
current main objectives are finding key for step 2 of numbers 2 decryption and a key for soundcloud
they may be the same key
nah new mille song is gonna be neuro 🔥🔥
And a way to use the phone number
look for the password somewhere which got 16 letters and/or numbers
oh yeah, that too
a syllable that sounds like "why" is here
I and why are both 1 syllable
Follow is the only word in numbers 2 with more than 1 syllable (besides numbers)
yea but why sounds exactly like Y
we need another syllable that sounds like X for that theory then
And what sounds like X? Six?
Let's not get into transcription hearing vowels discussions. History has shown that they end in 99% tragedy
xyllables
i just meant that if we want to interpret start from x and end with y as start with a syllable that sounds like x and end with a syllable that sounds like y, we actually need those syllables yfm?
figure out z 👍👍
the lyrics say start from x end with y btw.
how nice of vedal to provide subtitles to the only video that doesnt really need them
"start FROM x ends with y"
Right, so we gotta accept that there are two routes and either (individually) fixate on one or try to explore both
The SoundCloud also says remove xy + odd one out right?
Yup
odd pattern breaks?
what if they are like numbers?
That might be for the SoundCloud desc tho
they are I think
either from the alphabet, or just like variables?
relates to the numbers lyrics
someone smarter explain where was fibonacci from numbers I video used? I'm trying to catch up with a few things
does it?
If you remove the first and last digit of each number as well as the entirety of 879 which doesn't fit the pattern it's 16 numbers
16 digits I mean
It was a red herring... or was it
(but it wasn't used so far)
906 is even
thanks, seems strange, maybe we shouldn't call numbers I completely finished
24 and 25th letters of the alphabet, maybe?
So far no Fibonacci used
start from 24 and end with 25 sounds dumb, nvrm
skykonrats comment is probably most likely
cuz the odd one out
YO I SAW PROGRESS?
Yes
yes
start from the 24th fibonacci number and end with the 25th?
we went schizo 🔥🔥🔥
Good job y'all
red herring
how do we know for sure?
is there a fibonacci number that has 16 digits 
it’s just a theory
we don't. We can't assert that something's irrelevent.
Yes
24th is 46368, 25th is 75025, what if we run those through the algorithm from numbers I?
perhaps it’s the Lucas sequence
whats f(9) equal to
9th fibonacci number is 34
@timid moth has leveled up! (2 ➜ 3)
Will give you 15 long keys
f(44)
we do not know
nevermind 701408733
pin this lol
701408733
Why ?
that's sad
https://zeptomath.com/calculators/fibonaccinumbers.php
This will output any fib number up to 10000.
just put it in the tools document. We have too many pins already
Damn, I am seeing some progress!
if the 2nd stage is 128 bits then we narrowed things down a lot
it’s binary to denary right?
sure, shouldn't be more than 4 numbers
go ahead

did you just
probably, but that's how you solve an arg
"Sy-" in Syllables sounds like X to be honest 
Are we trying to find the SoundCloud or the rest of Numbers 2?
both
and also the phone number
i genuinely wonder what the size of the key for the phone number is gonna be
I shall this message
? we have the actual number
? Didn't we solve the phone number with Numbers 1 lyrics?
how often will AES decrypt to garbage vs the real result, rather than straight up not work?
we have the phone number... in the js?
Yes!
ye
WE have it
we don't know what to do with it
docs moment
what’s the phone number again
imagine reading the docs
