There's a new post on Hiro's blog. Have fun!

Code:
Flower, I shall bring you a game.


Use one part-time worker at a time and for every dollar, add 3000.

ack, Binary
also some rather obscure clues

looking at the way he's worded it, perhaps a solution is again on a particular column?

Just sticking it into a binary converter, all in one piece gives me this...

Code:
DuDFO„OHWuWFa„aHMuMFOHMFOuOBMFOBOlOBS„SHSl]B]„]HWFWHD„DJWHDJo†WJOBO†W†MH]BWHD†W†olDuMH]lDJo„]l]uDlol]uSuWlDlSualWHDBW†]„ouoFalauO†M†auo„M†M„WJoFM„O„o„DJolMuDJaJO„OFoFWJMuol]„S„OFOlS„a„�

To Flower
Flower,
I shall bring you a game.




The key is on the key. A picture is 5.


they left out the spiel about part time worker and stuff about a dollar
apparently all we need to figure it out is, the key is on the key. a picture is 5

edit sorry n**b mistake

Please insert page breaks in long binary posts to avoid it stretching all over to the right. See the example above where the poster used the [ code ] function to make it fit nice & neat, all lined up.

Thanks.

wow. it looks like another jump in the game's difficulty. first, they give us a MS Word puzzle and then this odd binary one.

Come on, everyone! Lets get some of your expert code crackers in here and solve this thing. It can't be that hard, can it?

SEA:V5J1K2/P/L

Just read through the thread and didn;t see this mentioned, but in regards to the last part of SEA:V5J1K2/P/L, I think it refers to the true identities of Austin and Dallas:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Petrelli and Linderman.

Probably refers to some sort of Vignere Key. Phrasing it as, "the key is on the key," is probably the most frustrating thing they could have done, but I suppose it means that the latter key in an actual physical key.

A picture is 5. The fifth picture in Linderman's archieves is Godsend... which, if you'll allow me to clutch at straws, has a key-like shape. Godsend as a vigenere key doesn't shed any light though.

It's also possible that Future Hiro is using japanese numerology again where 5 can mean self, me and myself. He might just mean that he has the picture.

That's weird, right? I'm completely lost on that.

there might have been a reason why they removed that. maybe it could mean for every 100 (like 100 pennies) in the binary, add 3000 to alter the binary so it can make sense.

I just checked Hiro's blog again, and the line about the part-time worker is back. See for yourself.

Anyone know the current dollar/yen exchange rate?

so, do you think that there's something to my theory? by the way, check out http://finance.yahoo.com/currency?u to find out the dollar/yen exchange rate.

a part-time worker = 20?
for every dollar= 8 bits?
add 3000=001100110011000000?

guesses i know but make sense

For the key on a key, picture is 5 part, I was thinking maybe it has something to do with percentages? Because of the 5 key on a keyboard?

They solved it over at the blog comments.

For reference, here's what they got in the comments:

Quote:
E2-E4 H7-H5 D2-D4 A7-A5 G2-G4
H5-G4 H2-H3 G4-H3 H1-H3 B7-B5
B1-C3 C7-C5 D4-D5 E7-E6 D5-E6
F8-D6 H3-H8 D8-G5 C3-D5 E8-D8
F1-E2 G5-C1 E6-F7 C1-C2 E1-F1
C2-B2 D1-E1 B2-A1 D5-E3 D8-C7
F2-F4 A1-A2 H8-G8 A2-F7 G8-G7
D6-F4 G7-H7 F7-E6 F1-G2 E6-A6
H7-H4 F4-D6 G2-F1 C7-B7 H4-H1
B7-A7

The sequence paired off into what could be chess moves..

1. e2 e4 White pawn to e4
2. h7-h5 Black pawn to h5
3. d2-d4 White pawn to d4
4. a7-a5 Black pawn to a5
5. g2-g4 White pawn to g4
6. h5xg4 Black pawn captures g4

And the results of the first
six turns. Anybody want to 'play' out the rest and see if it really is chess?

I played the chess game! when the black team seems to win, all the pieces go to their place and write these 2 letters:
