Ok, received yet another email from Knave and I haven't responded since the last one. I will be responding yet tonight regardless of our progress to ensure he/she doesn't lose interest...

*ETA: First off he keeps saying "/b/rother". Here's what I've found for that so far... http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/b-rother

such concern!
From: Knave of Spades <digyourown_googlemail>
To: Friar Tilton <friartilton_ymail>


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear /b/rother,

It has been way more than 24 hours now, I'm worried; are you feeling well? :)

Myself, I feel that I may have been unfair to you. This, let's be honest, could be because that was my intent all along; but now I feel the vaguest tinges of regret. They are very vague though, I think I shall be able to repress them.

Here, if you are still able, why don't you throw those exact words back at me:
tmfidytdeqnnyihce
ymbgjxgvmrhqxlmwm essmmpwfxekchslguijxncf (myself and this parenthetical aside excused, of course)
hkfrzswalwhhueikslgpqazaurdzytjchzffezsspfxczndeit

when you are done posturing why dont you tell me what you want


dunno if you've responded yet, but here's what I would say, take or leave as much or little of it as you want:

Yes I have plenty of friends, we gather together to discuss the demise of BB every night in a chat room on irc.freenode.net . If you'd like to join us you are welcome. What I want, is to know what you want, why did you contact me? Who are you? Do you have any friends? Seems to me the knave is a lonely sort.


Throw in your usual quotes and flavor Wink

I like the idea. Here's my thoughts, coming from the original e-mail:
Quote:

scattering like roaches at daybreak. Rats, sinking ship, etc. Do you need more similes? I could do something on card houses

Quote:

I like your similes, they give me smilies. Roaches survive until sundown, and their numbers are growing. Rats can swim to shore. Card houses are built simply to enjoy their destruction, and I assure you, yours will follow suit.

That was posted on IRC by cyng within about 5 minutes of the decryption. Good find though.

SOLVED IT!

So...the cantseemypokerface comment

got me to get pokerface in my head, only the one with christopher walken, so I decided to play the mashup just for fun

and then i noticed gaga spits out the ace of spades

so i decided to watch the real video for clues

and on the table she has the cards 27JAA

so I entered it today

and VOILA!!! the secret file is now unlocked

ETA: for clarity-- what I meant by the "secret file": i was talking about the file in babbage that was in the middle of the second row that was just a hole; on the wiki, we had it marked with ?????

but it isn't decrypted

Great find! Thanks a lot! for writing it down and entering it - I saw the cards and noticed the ace but I didn't think it could be THAT, was too far from the game for me. So it seems nothing is too far in this game that it couldn't be a solution or hint. Thanks again!
