Good call tempera ! (pun intended)

That is a registered telephone number in Seattle, WA.

Various services on the 'net will allow you to do an address search based on the phone number, but it costs about $15 to do.

What is that drumming sound?

[CWallaby55]

I tried to record it but my sound recorder only goes up to a minute and the message was longer than that. I'd try again but shamefully I'm too creeped out to try again. Someone with a better recorder, maybe?

As far as I can tell, the message is from a sermon called "Modern American Christianity" by Paul Washer. It's about how American Christianity is, I guess, superficial and people aren't really committed to their faith. I found the part of it that I heard, and copied it into a text file (it was too long to just quote).

The drumming/clicking pattern that Mn3moN1C mentioned seems to be repeated over and over, but I can't get a good capture of it. It almost sounds like the clap pattern for the "Go (team name here)" chant.

Some stuff- google's html version of the full sermon. It was apparently delivered at a Southern Baptist youth convention (I really wish I could find out when or where.) the Finderictaylor website mentions that Eric was active in a youth group.

Here is the message in full.

[Mn3MoN1C]

This is the transcription:

Enter through the narrow gate, but the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction and there are many who enter through it. There is a narrow gate. And you know historically one of the reasons I'm a Southern Baptist is because the Southern Baptists have always been quick when other denominations have failed to realize this, that Southern Baptists have always been quick to realize that there is one gate. There is one God. There is one mediator between God and man and his name is Jesus Christ.

It's not multiple choice, not every road leads to Rome. As a denomination, we have always told people what Jesus told people "I am the way, the truth, and the light and no one comes through the father except through me." So I praise God for that, that the only way any human being on this Earth will ever be saved is through Jesus Christ. That is all.

Because we need to realize the Bible says for "All men come short in the glory of God" and you have no idea what that means. That we were born radically depraved and God-hating. That we would've never sought God, never come to God, we'd have rebelled against God, broken every law. It's not just an issue that you have sinned, the issue is you've never done anything but sin.

The Bible says in the prophet that even our greatest work might still be rags before God. And because of that you know what we deserve: the wrath of God. The holy patron of God.

Now you say, "Oh wait a minute, God doesn't hate anybody. God is love". No my friend, you need to understand something; Jesus Christ taught, the prophet taught, the apostles taught this: that apart from the grace of God revealed in Jesus Christ our Lord the only thing left for you is the wrath, the fear, anger of God.


I hope everything is right. Also note, that the clicking sounds like it could be morse code, but it could be just from the speakers when they recorded the message.

[CortezTheKiller]

This is what the clicks look like...they are definitely in a pattern. It is the first series of clicks you hear at the start of the recorded message.

The highlighted bits are the clicks. They are all pretty much at the same amplitude, so these are intentional rather than an artefact of recording.

Is this Morse Code or something similar?

[Das Llama]

There was no tapping over these two parts

[El Neil]

(shudders)

[Tempera]

There's also the "tap code"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_Code

I'm not that great when it comes to audio signal processing and found it rather difficult to identify all the clicks when I looked at its plot . Would someone happen to know how we can get a clean pulse train from this?

Oh, and is it just one sequence repeated over and over? (Doesn't seem like it to me at this point though)

Tap Code

[Gothlark]

Hey, this'll be my first post here. I just started playing the other day. My first game of this sort. I noticed a few things with the latest video's code. First off, if you apply the fibonacci sequence decryption to the "Eagle Eyed Forum Poster" letters that appear as he brushes the letters aside, it comes out saying "Eden." This would of course make sense with his imagery of Adam and Eve. Perhaps it has more significance than that, mind you.

The other thing I wondered was if "Sue Hart" was an anagram. Perhaps the entire message isn't "Sue Hart see John", as the 8:32 being out of order with John may imply scrambling. Due to John 8:32 being about truth, I thought it may say something like "See John 8:32 true has." The improper grammar seems to be out of character, so I wonder if anyone might be able elaborate on my ideas. I'm new to these, go easy on me.

[Tempera]

Okay... I tried analyzing the clip using some non-professional software, and only managed to get a better picture on about 3 seconds of clicks in one night . (from around 00:08 to 00:11, just when the clicks first started)

At least, the intervals between the clicks are very constant so it must mean something. (See the attached image)

If this were encoded using the tap code method, we'd get something like
(4,1) (2,2) // (1,1) (1,1) (2,1) which becomes QG AAF

And then I'm really stuck XD. Of course, it doesn't have to be tap code. Any other ideas?

I'll work on more clicks tomorrow... Or, I'm sure someone would definitely be able to do a quicker and better job than what I did !

(Ohh! The Eden idea is intriguing! I can't find a good explanation for "sue hart" either though)

[CortezTheKiller]

Could it be binary, with the short gaps being a 1 and the long gap being a 0? (or vice versa)

Just an idea, probably wrong, but I have no idea where to begin when translating binary.
