 		I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this before. I searched around and didn't see any mention of it, so I thought I'd bring it up.

I was playing with AS36 yesterday, trying random codes to see if I could get anywhere. On a whim, I tried 5*6#. (5x6=30) To my surprise, it played agent code 30! So I tried 2*2#, and it played agent code 4!

AS36 knows its multiplication tables!!

I mentioned it before, not sure if it was posted anywhere but IRC many months ago. It certainly acts funny if you use only a * at the start or end, though.

 		Agent code 8463 and 222
Greetings all.

So this is my first post, I've read from the very start down starting about two weeks back.
I love the work that has gone into this ARG, AMAZING!!

So I figured I would jump in! Very Happy

I've been working on the odd sounding message from
http://dialer.otp22.com/2014-12.dir/2014-12-04%2021-27%20UTC%20-%20303-309-0004%20-%208463%23.wav
and
http://dialer.otp22.com/2014-12.dir/2014-12-05%2000-18%20UTC%20-%20303-309-0004%20-%20222%23.wav

It seems it's very distorted Audio Frequency Shift Keying (AFSK) tones. After cleaning it up with some notch filters in Audacity was able to dig the binary out of it.
But I'm not able to get much further than that. Crying or Very sad

From 8463
Code:
10101010101010100100000001101000110101101

Note: I think the first 16 bits are sync bits and not part of the message.

Xkeeper tried the decimal of this*less the first 16 bits*, 8442285, with no luck.

I also found agent code 222 the same kind of tones, just at a much high data rate.

From 222:
Code:
110011001100110

Note: This message had no sync bits at it's start.

These look like Baudot messages, but they don't fit any thing on here that I have seen before.

Any ideas any one? Question

 		We had a new message from Robby!

Quote:
Aloha. It is difficult for me to send messages as of late. I have some downtime on the ship I am on. We are in a quiet period. Something is not right and Ai is not responding. I know you know how to get a hold of her. Please have her contact me. Aloha.



I have left a response:
"Aloha. Ai is unable to access Collector 1, please can you assist with this? And please provide a more secure method of communication for Ai to contact you directly."

 		New Robbybox!

Quote:

Aloha, Let me give you an update because we are in a silent period.
There is a lot of activity in the back channel, and it could be very bad news to all of you.

There is serious talk about shutting down the agent system, and implementing a new communication method, since a missing Ai could mean a compromised system.

I am trying to deter them. I found something of use and you will know what to do when you see it.

Make it happen!

Aloha!


Calling robbybox still gives us the plushie drop images and the same bpsk....
What are we to do?

 		drawbars has received a handwritten letter from Robby!!






(personal information and one-time-use codes have been censored)


Quote:
J is becoming impatient. They already have an alternate plan for the Svalbard Operation and it does not involve Ai. My concern is that this could lock you out forever if they do proceed with that. My promotion has given me a lot of new access now. I thought I knew a lot, but what I have found is disturbing. It is a lot more then Svalbard (J's pet project).

Agent Code: 16041
One time agent validation code: *censored*
QX1 New Code Request: *censored*


We have used the one-time agent validation code for Ai in the correct place.

 		drawbars contacted Robby to let him know that he'd received and used the letter he sent. Robby responded,

Quote:
Aloha. This is good to hear. Let's hope we get the all clear soon. Aloha.


AS27 has changed from the synth-goth music to all zeroes again (sequence 40.12).
