 		[SITE] www.sefer-raziel.com
Woah! Gouldeneye took a guess at www.sefer-raziel.com as 'sefer-raziel' appeared on two of the clues. Here goes...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The red words in the flash are cache, shibboleth, angels, and daemons. This leads to:

www.sefer-raziel.com/cache

www.sefer-raziel.com/shibboleth

www.sefer-raziel.com/angels

www.sefer-raziel.com/daemons

All are password protected except for www.sefer-raziel.com/shibboleth, which is a black page with http://www.sefer-raziel.com/shibboleth/hiddenwithin.gif in it. I reckon it's stegged. Someone help?

darkstar found that it is vignere'd with a key of raziel and it came out to numberswav. So then we have http://www.sefer-raziel.com/shibboleth/numbers.wav

Now is where the real fun starts.
BlueAgavePlant found that the tones represented these numbers
http://www.dialabc.com/sound/detect/detect.html?upload=001117147872eaf992cf

we were thinking phone number codes, the length of the tones as having significance, just about everything with no luck so far. good luck



i looked up the whois record for www.sefer-raziel.com and got something very interesting

i called the number and got 'your call cannot be completed as dialed'
someone suggested it may spell out something, but i havent been able to figure anything else. www.phonespell.org and www.phonetic.com both dont help very much.

Poke gets all the credit for that, I was just the messenger.

 		Sooo, we have not made all that much progress, but I'll post some of what I and others have done so nobody will have to repeat the extremly tiresome process. I'll just sum it up here.

EDIT: Yes! Finally some progress! I tried splitting numbers.wav, since the decoder prolly wasn't built to handle such large files. And it wasn't. So now we got a litte more text! The sentence is still incomplete though.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

We found out that numbers.waw consisted of so-called DTMF tones, telephone tones. I found a site that converted the tones, link. Most of the tones was at the same lenght; 120ms, but a few were 241ms long and others at 90ms. Gouldeneye found out that the numbers from the tones was ASCII-decimal, and converted them (by hand) to:

"You hath begun your journey t kno ledge he timid hould no a empt o find"

Then, by adding a 1 to all the values where there was a 241ms he got this complete messege:

UPDATE:
"You hath begun your journey to knowledge the timid should not attempt to find that the key t"

So, now we have what appears to be an incomplete sentence, what is it the timid should not attempt to find? While trying to figure that out, some of us have been going at the numbers. We found a use for the 241s, now only the 90s remain. I extracted them from the text:


UPDATE: These don't seem to be correct anymore, I think it might be interference or something.

164114600111019112

The last figure, 2, isn't 90ms. It's the very last number in the big string and only 60ms long, for some reason.

So far I have tried taking the groups of dec/hex they are in and converting them to letters, I got this:

uthojrtnetdodnamn (dec)
ONIFLNHAN@I@H??H (hex)

As you can see, it doesn't seem like anything useful.

We also found two new channels in IRC, #daemons and #heaven. Nothing has happened there yet though.

And thats where we are right now. I still haven't given up on the 90s, and thats what I will be working on. And remember that we are not waiting for something to happen anymore, we have a puzzle to solve now.

 		Made some progress, I edited my previous post. When I checked the 90s on the new splitted numbers.wav nothing made sense. They were different. I am beginning to think that it's just interference or something.

 		There is a new numbers.wav? Is it the same, just with the 90s in different places?

 		Ok, we've had another look at it, and we're stumped. Whoever created this is a BITCH. Yeah, I know you're reading this. *hiss*

 		Misery, we have more or less given up on the 90ms beeps. They change every time I split the file into smaller ones so I don't understand how they could be intentional. But please feel free to keep on looking, it's very possible we have missed something.

 		Just to clarify... the 241's are not just added 1's (although adding a 1 is correct in certain circumstances), it is actually just a repeated number (120ms*2 = 240ms). I split the file and had several times where 241 was with the zero. As clear as the text is once that is resolved, I have no doubt the 90ms tones have zero significance. On a side, I independantly verified what has been previously posted... there has to be another file somewhere (more of the message)!
