We could use some help archanumarcha game is too confusing A few of us are working on this archanumarcha game that's been going on for the past couple of weeks, but the codes are too complicated.
I think it started with this video on facebook and can walk people through to where we are so far. The video is here

They taunt us via facebook... so it might just be some jerk tbh, but its fun so far, and they've alluded to prizes so. help? lol

Went to http://www.archanumarcha.com/ and looks like there's a countdown to July 1st.
OP, what do you have so far?

So what I have from the website is
QR directs to scan.me/5hcs86g which is https://instagram.com/archanumarcha/
I translated the morse to ARCSANUMARCSA EO22828TEXE but I'd really like someone to double check it.

Texting archanumarcha to 22828 gets this in return:

Is bacon helpful as a code word?

Instagram cipher
Starting at the top left and going clockwise number the pictures 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8. Rearrange them as 5 2 7 4 1 6 3 8. Starting at the arrowed T put them in columns of 21 letters (5 columns total) so not even a transposition cipher.
"The power they hold lies in their irboxes [sic] but the knowledge has been released. Fame and or fortune awaits those who find their own.

Here from Reddit.
The four boxes are the pictures on the cube; in the source code, they are named "Power, Fortune, Fame, Knowledge".
Also, interestingly enough, the QR code side is named "DONTSCANTHIS".
We might have to text/email our choice at some point.
EDIT: Could someone set up an IRC chat and direct everyone there?
