Looks like it starting to pick up the pace a bit. Getting pretty intense with the dog shadow and where it's heading. Hopefully it stays this good if not getting better.

New vid up, and a nice little code to tide us over...

The picture had the following written on it:

VFAgS1NTSE1TTIBSIE5XUk9PQUFF STORY, YOU KNOW

From the content of the video I assume it's a coded message. I'm currently working on it.

The combination of numbers and letter, both lower and upper case, complicate it slightly. Unlike the first code, which was a book identifier, googling it yields nothing.

Letters included(frequency): A(1), B(1), E(2), g(1), F(3), I(2), k(1), N(1), P(1), Q(1), S(2), T(3), U(2), V(1), X(1), 1(2), 5(1), 9(1)

It's possible it's a substitution cypher, though it would be quite complex due to all the characters potentially involved (upper case and lower case alphabets, plus numerals to at least 9). The lower case letters are either significant to the code or a can be disregarded, though I'm better on the former. The numbers also, and their scarcity is intriguing.

First off, awesome video. Still love the production value. Editing was great as well. I dislike sitting through self-searching idle awkward silences.

The code though. I wish I wasn't so utterly terrible and lost when it comes to codes. I'll follow along but I can't offer any actual help... I know it seems unlikely, but maybe Story herself is the only one that can solve this. Because of

Has anyone isolated the blackout frames to see if there's anything hidden in them?

More scratchpad.

Looking at the B in the middle of the sequence, there are three characters on either side until you hit a number:

1TTIBSIE5

The tail end of the sequence looks like it might be a repetition of the pattern:

9PQUFF__

Only pattern I can really discern right now, might be a step in the right direction.

Edit: Looking at other chunks in their own separate sequences.

VFAg
XUk
the next lowercase letter in the sequence would be n

VFAgS1

The S1 seems to be the odd man out as far as sequences go. Maybe that's part of the key...

Could the numbers just be spaces? Or would that be too simple?

Also I tried to decode it as a single and double transposition cipher (both with and without numbers) using various forms of STORY YOU KNOW as a decryption key and got nothing.

Anyone thought of using The Illiad as a source for cracking the new code? Maybe it builds of the previous one rather than being a new one altogether?
