 		New email from Alex:
Quote:
We have temporarily disabled LAINSY so that it can't cause any problems. We were able to figure out a way to reset LAINSY, and this time, we're sure there won't be any problems with the reactor and such. Standard Protocols, they are made for a purpose.

My team will be rummaging through the files, and we'll see if we can find anything. LAINSY has made a HUGE log file, about the recent logic data changes. We'll have to see what has been changed, and see what we can remove. LAINSY definitely learned a LOT on it's own. So much for "it can't learn on it's own" as the LAINSY Dev Team told me.

I'll update you all in a few hours. Time for me to rest. I don't want to kill myself just for this.

 		Oh man, things just keep getting more intense! Unfortunately it looks like the rest of the week (and potentially the next three) will be hectic, so I'm going to have to hold off on putting any substantial amount of time on the wiki. I just hope all the good stuff isn't over by the time I'm free again. D:

 		Didn't get that email either. Thanks for the update. Don't worry solar. Maybe some of us will have some free time and can work on it too. Wow, what an intense ride this one is!

 		I didn't get cherrytree's email either.
I did, however, get this:
Quote:
Ok LAINSY is now stabilized. LAINSY won't go himcidal now. We cleaned up some uneeded logic, so we don't think anything wrong will happen. Anyways, I went ahead and unlocked some files for you to work on. I will be in Orein's folder at Level 7. It shouldn't be hard for everyone. I know you all want to do something, so go ahead. Orein did mention something about the files, right? So yes, alss you see there are pretty much all his files.

It will be at the secure files /sfs at level 7. You know the login already, right? Go ahead.


EDIT: Found the files. They're at /SCR/WHISPHER/OREIN/DOCS

Ok, "science" decodes to:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
All mistakes can be corrected.

We can all forgive, but we can never forget.

The universe is vast

Everything and anything will happen

Everything is possible

There's no law the universe never broke

Science is understanding


It's a multi-decode, but it's pretty obvious when you do it.

Got "think:"
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The truth The lies
Everything in this world
Is done

Energy is everything
from this universe
to another

We are all one
and yet we fight
and yet we're divided

 		World decodes to...
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
If you think about it, there's so much people in this world unaware of what's happening. What do you think will they do if the world is no longer their world?

 		Energy decodes to :

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
They say, you need enough energy to something because there should be an equivalent amount of energy that should be input for an equivalent energy output. That was false, the universe never had this as a law. The universe never started with all of the energy it has today. Heck, you typing away in a keyboard uses up more energy than the universe had when it started.

1.Decode Hex to String -> gives binary
2.Decode Binary to String -> gives decoded text


EDIT: The proto directory in L7 is also quite interesting!

 		Daniel document in the PERSONAL folder

Solved
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Each of the different strings translates to a letter or punctuation and the dash breaks up words. It translates to:

DANIEL ASKED IF WHAT I'M GOING TO DO THIS WEEKEND. I WENT AHEAD AND SAID I'LL BE BUSY SAVING THE WORLD AND WHAT NOT. HE JUST LAUGHED. I THINK HE WAS INTENDING TO ASK SOMETHING, BUT HE DIDN'T BOTHER TO DO.

 		Wow. Lots to digest. So Genus is taking the FOxR-B agent to use on the Afyg? And he is talking to Lainsy like she is a juvenile. Still working through the ciphers as I have time.

 		Has anyone figured out how to solve OREIN.txt in the blue directory? It may be a keyed Caesar, but blue and orein don't work as keys.

That one and VINEGAR in the DOCS folder are both frustrating me.

Edit: I've tried several combinations of keyed and unkeyed Caesar and Vigenere with several keys including what is noted in KEYGEN under Notes.

Edit: Maybe columnar transposition? Nope! Any ideas Punxtr, Duke, Mothman, Zeighy, Minz?

 		I've tried all those things too Godder. I think that the KEYGEN document is important to both the blue and vinegar codes because if you look at the timestamp they were all uploaded at about the same time. Also they were uploaded much more recently than the other docs. I'll keep trying in my spare time today.
