0xFF7 is the hexadecimal offset of the beginning of the URL. the object is to try to get you thinking in hex, so you can solve clue2.aif similar to the image file, playing the sound over and over wont do you much good. you have to open the file up in a hex editor program.

Damn, I went to a lot of trouble to convert that to a wav so I could reverse it... You got me again. |

So you have embedded a encrypted hex on this one correct? This will be somewhat a little harder to crack, if i dont know what encryption you used. P.S.: Already watched FF7:AC jap dvd, and i can only say one thing.... it totally rocks dude!!!!! much much much better than "spirits within" |

Re: Cryptography Challenge #1!

i think i get the encryption now, ill crack this baby in no time :) |

good job joeglens! try using google to make sense out of the equation. i picked those two large numbers for a reason.

Re: Cryptography Challenge #1!

| There are two sets but i still cant figure out how to apply the clue you had just given to me. Series numbers are not my speciality, X( |

I'm sorry but I can't figure out how to open the file.. I NEED TO SEE THE ANSWER!!!! HELP ME JOEGLENS!!!!

here is a hint: the two numbers in the subtraction problem are years. who was born and died during those respective years? he was a mathematician who had a recursive series named after himself.

dude, use a hex file editor. I use TechnoLogismiki Hackman......... I still can't figure out the series of numbers........ its not even f*******i numbers, although im not sure how to look at it.... |

I'm just gonna take a wild guess at it even though I've haven't seen this series of numbers. (I looked at the sound file in my primitive hex viewer and didn't see much besides garbage, I kinda suck at these things) Could it possibly be the Fibonacci sequence? (1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,etc.) |
|
Re: Cryptography Challenge #1!
|
|
its not even fibonacci, its just a series of 1s to 8s with spaces (e.g. 111112 22223 3444......), the other set is repetition of 1 to 0 with spaces(e.g. 1234 567 8901 23456 78901 2.......) Its not fibonacci but it has something to do with him the code was encrpypted hex with the audio clue as the key to break it. better make sure you see the ascii code |

well, in jpeglens writes: I see, ignoring the first set of four, a set of three and then four, then two sets of five (two numbers from the set 34, 55). The answer probably resides in some comparison of the two sets. |
|
Re: Cryptography Challenge #1!
|
| its not the actual series i just made an example that follows his pattern somehow and sometime the spaces between group of numbers its 2 and sometimes its 20 spaces |
