I got the first and second clue I guess, but I don't get the 3rd? I don't know where am I suppose to start, from the inner or outer?

Sakasama no chou?...
@Kid: you made me download de song!...hahaha, but I don't get it XDD lolz.I solved it pretty much with the 3rd clue specially after understanding that Gendou-san kinda never says his clues like the second one =P...

@kei-kun : lolz XD ~ off course it doesn't~
I said so because at first I mistook and decode the messages from backward, so the words doesnt make any sense to me...and while I listening to sakasama no chou-'inversed' butterfly ...I've come to think that maybe I can solve it if I decode it in inversed way and ~voila~ I solved it :P
btw its a nice song isn't it?? lolz~~

I myself didn't get what it means on the 3rd clue XD

I was trying this and I didn't take notice to the third clue...

That could've helped... :/

he didn't link to it in the hint, but there's a filename in the same directory as the original picture...

Original Picture: http://gendou.com/crap/temp/crypt23.gif
Picture in hint : http://gendou.com/crap/temp/crypt23-key.gif

(it should be okay for me to give that clue since all winner slots are filled)

Thanks a lot Ippiki! Ü I am also thinking of that but I don't get the temp. I knew it has something to do with the address but then i didn't manage to find it. At least now I could solve the secret message.

Is this cryptography challenge linked in any way to the music map? I was looking at the music map today and noticed the similarity.

they both employ radial geometry, but this is more inspired by crop circle design than anything else.

any idea when we'll see another crypt challenge?

The file crypt23-key.gif seems no longer available on the server.

Same thing for the challenges 13, 15, 16 and 18.
Will these files become available again in the future?

If someone still has any of the files mentioned above I would appreciate it to receive them by email.
Thanks in advance !
