 		haha yeah i guess that's possible too. i appreciate the hints but it's so tough to do them in-character—notice how useless it is to have people in the thread making idle observations? these aren't much better (and can't be wihtout breaking OOG)

hints are hard!! sorry those tweets didn't work out if you're indeed reading the thread

"I'm getting confused. Taking a break from this for a few hours. Tim let me know he's working on it too so hopefully he'll get something."

Oh ya, Timmy Tims will help us. He's way smarter than Jay.

So what, your ark or maybe "J, YOU are the ark!" (read as silly Maury Povitch type voice).

Yay, Tim's on the case now.

What if the first digit is the letter it represents, and the distance of the second letter from it on a number line is the second letter it represents? For example, 79, being G, and then 9, being two away positively is I, and with 83 being H and C?


I was thinking the same, and tried it out, but I wasn't sure about 83, the most frequent double digit, being H or C, common but relatively infrequently used letters. I'm holding on to the notion that 83 is E or T or something, based on how often it shows up, and I'm sure that's going to be my undoing.

 		Now we get help from the Tim himself!

I think it's time to face the fact that that tweet was a hint that we've proven ourselves terrible decryptors Very Happy

(I still haven't given up though...)

 		10 bucks says Troy makes a plant account to post the correct answer on here and/or tweet the correct answer @marblehornets so he can move on.

If that happens, let's pretend we didn't notice it's suspicious Wink

 		I don't know if this was mentioned, but I just noticed a pattern with the mirrored pairs (57-75 and 72-27). There are three instances 57 and three instances of 75, while there are two instances of 27, and two instances of 72. So each pair of numbers in the mirrored pair appears evenly with it's mirror. Probably not a coincidence.

EDIT: Also don't know if this was mentioned, but why don't the other number pairs have a mirrored version. Maybe that has to do with the letters that are missing?

I just posted this on tumblr, but I wanted to post it here too.
So what I did was I took the code:

and added up the digits vertically, like so:

I then took these numbers and added up all of their digits together to get single-digit numbers. I corresponded the single digits to their places on the QWERTY keyboard:

which results in OYURAKR, an anagram for "YOUR ARK".


If this is correct, the second code would spell

Code:
S    O   T   I   K    T

 		Anagramed those letters. The second numbers don't have the same way of solving as the first code.

So what, your ark or maybe "J, YOU are the ark!" (read as silly Maury Povitch type voice).

Yay, Tim's on the case now.

I have a really fucked up theory about that but stay with me here
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Okay this theory is kind of disappointing to me because I had been hoping that The Ark was a singular destination that dealt with answering some severe questions about the antagonists, but
in the TTA video, TTA said "SEES NOW", various visuals of Jessica (which Jay made a direct point of pointing out), and then the code (here as "YOUR ARK".)
so i was thinking that maybe (and this is a bit convoluted, don't get me wrong) that Jessica is Jay's Ark.
The Ark itself was a bit of symbolic imagery on behalf of TTA -- so it could be that he wasnt referring to a place, or a thing, but a motivation. Jay has made it blatantly obvious that the only reason he keeps going is to find Jessica, and not only that but has stated it repeatedly to Tim, whose masked persona is in cahoots with TTA. My initial thought about this was that if Jessica is Jay's Ark, then the Ark is not a singular destination, place, or thing. The Ark is instead something of importance to the individual that the Operator took from them that keeps them in want and makes them delve deeper in hopes of getting their Ark returned to them. If, and IF this is true, Jessica would be Jay's Ark because she's the reason he's even bothering with this anymore instead of giving up. Jessica is why he keeps delving deeper and deeper even though he has specifically stated that he doesn't want to know the answers anymore.
So TTA sees this and says "SEES YOU", repeatedly pictures Jessica, and then "YOUR ARK". IF this is right, then maybe TTA is saying that he sees Jay's angle now?
idk this was kind of a stupid theory cooked up by me but maybe the Ark is just something that was taken from each individual by the Operator that they need to find again to find peace -- not necessarily to stop from being stalked, mind you, but to find peace
and using the symbolism of the Ark in Noah's Ark
The world was gonna be ravaged by horrible storms and floods, so in order for Noah to find peace he had to build an ark, whch would shelter him from the storm and carry him to peaceful times
so maybe once you've found your ark it will lead you to peace b/c thats like
the one reason you kept going
so maybe if Jay finds Jessica, it won't matter to him what happens to him after because that was his ark, and his purpose and motivation
this gets more and more muddled the more i talk about it
this theory probably isn't right but i thought i would put it out there
