Hi Mehetabel,

Thank you for your answer! You explained the solution exactly as it goes, very impressive. Are you up for another task? I was given the following set of numbers. Do you have any idea of what it could mean?

Best Regards,
Richard Exaltego (CEO - Avecira Solutions)

 		So, I sent this back to Mr E...hoping he would give a little more detail of
Why the need "problem solvers"..

I thank you for your response Mr. E. I have since sent in my response and am awaiting word.
Just out of curiosity, why do you need skillful problem solvers? Is it for a specific position within your company? If so, what are the job specifications?

You should have added "and how much does it pay?" Wink
I have also informed Beth that I am trustworthy to see where that leads.

I have decoded the text part of the message to read

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
You are reading this for a reason. The reason is that you have still time to be the hero and rewrite the future for the better. Make sure you find some other righteous and skillful people to help, because this is a task no one can do alone. I will explain all this in the following messages. As you can see, I'm able to write only short passages at a time. It's a limitation in the non-causal messaging exploit that we haven't been able to overcome yet. Just stay alert, the world needs you!

Speaking of Beth... There's a new post with this picture ..

Edit: I swear there's a word at the bottom part of the key..

 		The image resolution is too fuzzy. I tried printing it out and holding the paper horizontally (that's what is needed to read the letters), but the image isn't crisp enough for me to make out what it says.

I'm thinking the top one decrypts and is the key to unlock the bottom one. My deciphering skills suck, but I'm doing research..

I actually could never figure out just how it was solved, I thought binary came in 8 digits? I put it through a translator but didn't get anything, either.

Btw, probably obvious, but the two employees' names: Richard Exaltego (rich, exalts ego) and Bucks Plentier (plenty of bucks: also rich). Seems to fit in with Avecira's company, anyway.

Add zero(s) to the beginning of each number to bring the digit total to 8 and then the translator should work.

I can't go into details, but there is an increasing demand of talented problem solvers in our company. It is not to a specific position (the problems may vary a lot) and unfortunately I can't offer any salary. However, if you choose to participate, you get to collaborate with great people (like myself) and be part of something huge and important!
