Looks like MISTY could be a 64 character block cypher. Though looks like it is mostly a Japanese invention.

ALIGN
Title Brief

Competition with Christopher, Pogrom, Deleter, Amara.
Integration with SPOOK UNIT
Resources
MEDiOPS
PSYOPS

MEDIOPS- I'm not positive on this one, but I believe it is for Medical Operations

PYSOPS- Psychological Operations which is essentially propaganda operations

CAGE (CAGE article in PNAS), cap analysis gene expression (CAGE). CAGE allows high-throughout gene expression analysis and the profiling of transcriptional start points (TSP), including promoter usage analysis.

SO- Unsure of definition.

SPOOK Unit- Is a "Black Op" usually for intel gathering purposes

Seeing as Tom seemed to be the one in charge of the Sacred Hat/ Lame Deer "scouts", I wonder if he ran into Ravenwood and was "recruited".

That may explain how he managed to create the sacredhatcasino website (knowing the only working computers were toughbooks after the EMP).

Of course the whole EMP destroying anything with a circuitboard thing may be a story loophole we aren't supposed to think about Smile

The only product we see currently on this list already is CHRISTOPHER. Does this mean there are hidden products, or these products no longer exist?

Also for the DISMISS product:
PRODUCT COORDINATOR: Langley 2

Does this mean the CIA have another new base, or is there a new CIA?



Um Pogrom is not a good name to see as a program.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pogrom

It's just shy of ethnic cleansing.

I'm not seeing it with the letters we have there. It may be more than one word, but I can't think of it right now. No sleep last night and a headache now are short circuiting my brain. I will keep trying that track for a little bit however.

Hey GenPatton does the link look close to any military terminology that you know? Could that be it?

I thought maybe it was txt shorthand but I couldn't parse anything out that made sense (okay people download z9oo). Maybe the domain name goes with the username and password:

kppldlz9oo
ptsts

This almost seems like something you would place over another object. For example, if you were to delete the lighter colored boxes and place it over something, to see things that might be hidden?

Does that make sense to anyone?


Makes alot of sense to me. In College me and my buddies use to play Cipher Games. Whoever won the weekly cipher, everyone had to either be a slave for a day or buy a meal for the winner. One of us was the CIPHER KING that week. One of the cipher games was setup much like the image. However, to get there was quite a challenge.

Clues led to a particular publication. After finding that publication you would then overlay the cutout onto that publication. As a result, you would get parts and pieces of sentences and or letters that had to be put back together in a sentence, at the discovery of the sentence, there would be letters left over that would be used as a cipher key for the next level.

NERD STUFF I know, but we used cutouts like the image to achieve the solution.

I think you are on to something.
