Looks like the buggers at IU figured it out.

Quote:

ok so I figured out how to solve it, just need to transcribe it out. It is based off of the periodic chart and is a simple sub cipher.. (I will try to get this today, but my time is a bit sporadic....)

So far I have :

Yeah, I went back and looked at the post and realized it was solved when you posted your link, heh.

The puzzles here are very interesting and I like it!

Okay, so as a n00b to ARGs, I've been pondering over this for a couple days because Travis told me not to tell "my people" about it. So if any of you do see him, don't mention me saying anything, okay? Basically, this message is to let everyone know that while there has seemed to be a lack of updates, this game is not dead. Travis was on for a brief period of time earlier in the week, he and I spoke, and he might be calming down. We'll see what happens. No new clues or details were added, plus my computer kinda ate the file I saved the conversation in, but yeah. Just wanted to let everyone know it's not dead.

EDIT: Contact with Synthesis.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
SamRey56: Well, well. Greetings, Synthesis. Here I thought you'd slinked off with your tail between your legs.
S1547NY5: I know. We are not done yet.
S1547NY5 signed off at 10:56:06 PM.


Huh. Guess we're back.

Er...I'm not sure how I feel about an evil corporation posting their threatening messages on another forum. Sad The lack of updates, this...couldn't they have at least put it on Travis' blog? *sigh*

Brain shot from 9 hours of working tech support, I'll take a deeper look at this puzzle when I get home. Glad to see this is still going, but it is getting a little sloppy right now

Yeah, Forums are for solving, not for the game itself, otherwise the game gets too casual, Not very ARGish.. using the forums to post clues robs the pleasure of finding the clues and posting them here. Rolling Eyes

Anyway, Back to solving the problem.. Smile
At first glance it looks like ascii to me, but there might be more to it.

Edit: Actually.. Five numbers a block don't fit ascii very well.. Wink
There are 62 numbers a row and 30 rows.

Wow... this is the first time I've actually been able to jump into a game at its beginning instead of at the end... Well i'm here to help! Very Happy

I took a look on IU, and S1547NY5 was just online, no doubt just checking if we were any closer to solving his code... After he signed off i double checked and he hasn't made a new post...

Could it be the periodic table code from before? I doubt it, given the placement of some of those numbers, but...that's really all I can come up with.

I already tried the periodic code, no dice. This one is going to drive me crazy. Every set consist of 5 numbers except for the last one ( what I am assuming is the end of the sentence) has two. Every sentence has 13 sets of numbers. Bang Head My head hurts lol.

So, I was talking to one of my friends about this puzzle and here's a general rundown of his ideas... I sadly did not have much to contribute ;_;

Quote:

(17:29:56) SkilletAudio: However, I do note that number patterns fail to fall in between the whitespace dividers.
There are a lot of examples where 5-digit sequences repeat near to each other: for instance, in the sequence you see as:

(17:30:09) skaboy4242: Yeah, I figure the final 2 havqe to have something to do with the key
(17:30:51) SkilletAudio: 46999 46984 34343 44434 34984
You tend to look at the 5-digit sequences, and you say 34343 and 44434 have nothign to do to each other, but let your eye slip across the dividing lines

(17:31:22) SkilletAudio: and you might see
46999 46984 34343 44434 34984

(17:31:41) skaboy4242: Hmm...
(17:32:19) SkilletAudio: 5.Groupins of 5 would seem to be important, since they are hinted at by the visual organiztion.
But the oprganization probably does not impose your sorting procedure on you.
(17:32:34) SkilletAudio: My two first ideas about that oddball column:

(17:32:57) SkilletAudio: Idea 1) each duple gives you a decryption key for the line that it follows
(17:33:37) SkilletAudio: Idea 2) each duple is the first 2 digits of a 5x5 grid like the rest of the puzzle, but the remain 5x3 digits are missing and must be deduced.
