Is lolz. But indeed. And if you're not enjoying reiteration, different ideas, etc.... you don't have to participate. And i'm not here for ARGs at all. I just want to know what the hell is 8.3.11 crap is. And this forum seems to be pretty damn well on top of it.

Perhaps the "new formspring guy" is on a different time and work schedule?

Something that never existed

I googled the 8-3-11. info like someone had suggested earlier the one about fourth down, is find your place with the phonetic alphabet spelling out
uniform/mike/eight/romeo/three/one/one/ alpha..
which spells um8r3lla

Might be nothing might have already been posted just figured I'd share.

I dont think i saw this posted yet, but could the CWT in helpherCWT.pdf be http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_wavelet_transform or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_wavelet_transform

One of the most popular applications of wavelet transform is image compression.

I think it's nothing.

Good to know i'm being talked about =0

So we're still looking for people who are genius enough and clued in about cryptography enough to decrypt the second leak, and so far it's been without luck. But then the guy who found the original substitution has made contact again! He posted a comment on Jacoby's blog saying he's working on the second one, so hopefully he stays interested because he's shown he's good at it in the past.

Also thought i'd say again in case you missed it: for live discussion about the finer details of 8-3-11, come to mibbit.com/#8311. Just don't come and expect to be immediately involved in a heavy discussion of 8-3-11 theory. When someone asks a question, everyone will get involved in answering it, but when all the clues have dried up and we're just waiting for more leaks/fs answers you can also expect off topic discussion to happen.

Welcome back Sasquatch Very HappyD

I had an idea. . Perhaps their use of The Conet Project is just to symbolize that same concept? For example, they could use the same tracks from it, (or whatever tracks they choose, it doesn't need to be The Conet Project) and code in their own sine waves, to get a message across.

Say for example they chose a work from Chopin.
They could write sine waves into the track, so when it's broadcasted by the dummy, it's a message. I'm only using Chopin as an example, but you guys catch my drift, correct?

HelpherCWT
and
HelpherNT

are both clearly related images. One of them, CWT, has tags down the bottom, one of them, NT, has no tags. Its the only difference between the images and the only difference in the titles. As has been said before:

CWT = Copy with tags
NT = No tags

Reading into it any more than that is a bit of a stretch, when there's no reason to pass the by far most obvious explanation.

I think that may have been suggested before, but I agree. Nothing too much to read into there.

Lol... How did I not realize that. /facepalm I suppose occasionally the answer isn't so deep and hidden.

New questions answered. Mostly about the language again, but they also implied that the one who was "leaking" images has been taking care of.

Now we know that of the unknown symbols, some might represent whole words, and none of the symbols we haven't seen yet are punctuation marks because they don't count as a part of the 38.

Also, they haven't learned "chryptography". I hope he isn't being a spellingfag in saying that, but if we take it that he isn't than we need a new explanation for why leak #2 contains nonsense words.

EDIT: Just got him to answer another two of my questions, and it turns out Belle would be mad if she knew what they were doing, but not for long.
