I've managed to make the system crash using one END, but it's a repetitive crash. It does the screwy screen thing, but stays in the screwy screen. I'm still going.

Bottom two lines:

E M Pr Pr Pr/ - Ro Zo Pr -

I've managed to get a readout with one end. It's not very interesting unfortunately, but I'll keep plugging away.

- - Ca Pr -/E Mo - Ro Pr/ - - S Pw Ro/ - - Ro Pw Pw/ - - Ro Z Z

Path appears to be

End Mount Switch Pwrite Pwrite Zone Zone Rotate Rotate Pwrite Roatate Pread Rotate Pread Cache

How bizarre - at least it proves there's still lots to discover in there... Maybe there's some kind of anagram thing going on at this level?

Those are my thoughts exactly. I think, perhaps, wherever the Cache lands will produce a different letter. Both the sequences have Pwrite and Preads in the sequence Pw Pr Pr, various lengths apart, but that's just my preliminary judgement.

No more letters yet. Just had a thought. All this technology in engineering and physics, making it seem like replicas/transportations etc of the cube might be happening. What if... the 5' x 3' 'painting' was the cube. Could this technology have been used to re-size the cube to look like something else. Who's going to look for a cube in a rectangular box?

[edit] on a different note END ZONE sends the code north after the zone.

Then I stand corrected again!

On a more constructive note... even though Caine has posted a new entry, do we think it's worth still trying to obtain more info from the back door. For example, if Caine got that message somehow, maybe we should be digging deeper...or have we got enough?

I agree, I think we need to try and find more. I suspect that we won't be doing this for months, but could be for weeks, and there is almost no way of telling when we've found everything.

I am interested however is finding some sort of explainable reasoning around how the interface works, rather than "this one goes up, apart from when net to a rotate where it goes left". A more logical framework so that we can determine how addressing works, and what part each command plays.
