 [TRAILHEAD] ...The Past Lives Today...

So, I got an email today.
The whole thing was one big cipher. Working on deciphering it.
Would YOU like to take a turn at it?

I'm spoilering my solve and method.. So, you can try your hand at it too.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Decimal->ASCII dump that into a Base64->ASCII converter and we get!

I find it amazing...the codebreakers ruined the ultimate plan of the empire...I did the things, those horrible experiments on humanity, for the rememberence of Dönitz...His dream of a world controlled by one. Yet...that dream was destroyed by the resistance...with the help of the foolish codebreakers...

This isn't the last you'll hear of me...So, I leave you with this one...last thing.

Prepare for unpredictable...beginnings 1123, revenge shall begin.


-Dr. Alex Bruener, Former Chief of Engineering & Experiments.


WOW, who thought codebreaking would cause so much ire. =D

Good solve. I sat there for five minutes, then I started adding the numbers. I'm bad with that. Anyway, Dönitz is more than likely referring to Karl Dönitz, U-boat captain, and brief president of germany, wiki here.


EDIT: Rereading the rest of the decryption, I'd speculate that this is being written by Josef Mengele, or someone who helped carry out his experiments.

They're back.

This is a part of Stop the Reich. Ignore my last message there because I'm retarted. Alex was the doctor in the game but it stopped due to inside issues and said they would come back.

Here we go down into the rabbit hole.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Dr. Alex Bruener

Heinrich Kruger AKA my Nazi BF

SS-Gruppenfuhrer Zeilding

Hstuf. Matt Schultz

Sean Rybka


There have been no changes and some of them have Unfriended me.....
