Yeah, his reply strongly suggest that there is some kind of link to the Zodiac Killer.
And an older sister, definetely he needs to contact her.

Tape 13 is up. He talked to his sister... Also she mentioned an uncle... Nothing to solve as of yet though... I'm thinking this is more of a naritive than an arg

I went ahead and flipped it right side up,


It is obviously a youtube video link. We have GOT to figure this mother out. Interesting side note, the Zodiac killer included cyphers in his letters to the cops admitting his crimes. Some were never figured out. May be a good starting point for solving this one...

Well. it looks like hexadermal digits to me. Not quite sure what downward arrow means. I have played around with it, but unable to get legit link.

The note came from C6D1b3D4c3c4b4c3b6D60 with and email address of c6d1b3d4c3c4b4c3b6d60SPLATgmail.com


Also he uploaded a video with the same content:



YouTube: Link



Also got headaches of the code, it seems to be hexadecimal, but it isn't actually ...strange!

I have no idea about the code up front (although I agree it reminds me of hexadecimals) , but has anyone looked at the list of places in the background? I don't know if it matters (and it probably doesn't), but it might. if you attach the bottom one to the top few you get httpww(s)w, with the first letters. That's why I was kinda wondering.

The picture was upside down, so I thought the code also must be upside down:

6c 1d 3b 4d 3c 4c 4b 3c 6b 6d

I think the 0 is just the last letter in the youtube link! Wink

then I played with the arrows:

6c 1d 2b 4d 2c 3c 3b 2c 5b 6d
6c 1d 3a 4d 3b 4b 4a 3b 6a 6d
6c 1d 2a 4d 2b 3b 3a 2b 5a 6d

but nothing! Decoded this looks better, than the decoding of the "original" one, with lot of letters instead of gibberish!
I think this is the start, but now I don't know to go on... any ideas?

Thanks for this, I will get a deeper look onto it. Wink

I can't have been the only one to notice this, but the stuff written on the picture is the same as the "name" of the account and the address. The only differences are whether something is upper or lowercase and the far more obvious one of the arrows on the picture.

Name: C6 D1 b3 D4 c3 c4 b4 c3 b6 D6 0
Address: c6 d1 b3 d4 c3 c4 b4 c3 b6 d6 0
Picture: C6 D1 B3↓ D4 C3↓ C4↓ B4↓ C3↓ B6↓ D6 0

The only thing apparent from this pattern is that the alphanumeric clues with the arrow are lowercase in both the name and address. I doubt this is a coincidence (could be; doesn't look like one though) but I'm not sure what it means yet. If I were to guess, I'd presume it's indicating that they are lowercase letters in the URL.

Hey everyone. Haven't played an arg in a while but this one looks interesting. Hi Wabonan!

So, we know it's an 11 character code ending in 0. We know it's case-sensitive because it's a youtube link. We know the arrows denote lower-case letters.

It's not hex, but if we swap the order (6c instead of c6) it might be. But not all convert to characters used in youtube links.

We know it's written on a page of answers to trivia questions. See my attached image, I believe it is the word TRIVIA in between q's 19/20.

I almost thought about reverse engineering this one and looking for new youtube uploads ending in 0, but I think youtube took out the page that shows recent uploads.
