Just a recap since I can't remember that far back:

http://groups.google.com/group/alt.conspiracy/browse_thread/thread/3cc6f4751a4c39ce/dfca45e1d0c008f0

"The conspiracy is the cats meow."

Led to: http://groups.google.com/group/alt.conspiracy.meow-meow/browse_thread/thread/d77d13e68c26d402#

"If this is not intended for you, stay out of this! No one is so brave
that he is not disturbed by something unexpected. "
Julius Caesar from Caesar's "The Gallic Wars", Book 6, Chapter 39.

Then a code:
yyuahrnqyf hcgi vxmly navgu ulli xmixo. 551961.

And finally an encrypted rar:
http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://rs700.rapidshare.com/files/383985365/551961.rar&usg=AFQjCNHbEHvcadn3BE0IE-c1B56SV6LEKg

And a second post:
"Did you get my MERCHANDISE?? "
ETA: Oops, dp, thought for sure someone would post before i finished writing this lol.

however, i think only the part "No one is so brave that he is not disturbed by something unexpected." is from Caesar.

 		"If this is not intended for you, stay out of this!"

Is that line of any importance?

I have no idea as I haven't deciphered it yet, I'm waiting to see if Treyarch answers you. Or maybe Giovan will.

 		I'm kinda surprised no one's mentioned getting on IRC for this game. Other than one person in the very beginning.

 		Not a bad idea. I'd jump in right now except that I'm about to take off. I have a feeling it might be needed on this one, though. It looks like a sleeping giant.

 		Holy guacamole batman!

I emailed Giovan and got a response!

My email to him:
Subj: I found you
"You can come out now."

His response:

Nova isn't going to get the document this time. Their team of elite crackers can't even figure out I ciphered the cipher.

 		Oooh

Ciphered the cipher.

So we're possibly looking at a double cipher here then.. I suspected it, but now we get to try and figure it out lol

Nice job Azure Smile

Yep, and it's more than likely a ceasar cipher, plus a vigenere.

Anyone want to get on IRC to chat in real time? Unfiction traditionally uses irc.chat-solutions.org and I'm in channel #gknova6

 		yeah I had some thought earlier. Even tried CAESAR as the keyphrase and then ROT the result. Nada.

 		i think the 6 words will be a question or riddle to get the password to the pdf...
so someone either start with the vigenere and then do a caesar or vice versca...
but it has to be that we might not be taking the right angle...

I know we were working on exactly that in the IRC channel tonight. No success when i got out, but that was the most agreed-on theory. for any readers that were not in the IRC, an idea came up that when solving

"yyuahrnqyf hcgi vxmly navgu ulli xmixo. 551961"

after the first 10-letter word, the rest could be numbers (like an area code almost). I believe Shizzire suggested this, and as i believe it is a sound theory, I'm repeating it.

just food for thought for those who didn't join the IRC tonight. those there (long) after i left, let us know what you came up with Smile

 		ok, so it looks like this was just posted in codz:
Quote:
SUP GUYS

So you ROT 10 the cipher:
yyuahrnqyf hcgi vxmly navgu ulli xmixo

to get:
iiekrbxaip rmqs fhwvi xkfqe evvs hwshy

and then you use the key freedoma:
dragonlady nine three three zero eight

that is all


a quick search for that in the google machine gives this site:
http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Classified/1767458
what do you guys think?
Code:
xjjf://hqfytixqhu.sec/vybui/384014383/vybui.zfw    - xjjf = http?



edit: nvm, they replied with a file and everything after ROT-ing that link
