Mission 5 was a HUGE success, a big shout out to Momentary for being the Op lead and everyone working in Alpha, Beta and Delta for the awesome teamwork.

We had 12 hours to finish finding the files after the servers were down, and Puzzler (as well as the rest of Beta) freaking destroyed it in less than 2, so a big shout out to him.

In short, hell yes we rock go team!

Mission 5 - Beta solution

So since we were limited in Beta and since the terminal is still available at
http://www.division-66.com/fsb/beta/ you can still try them out for your own

I will hide each step

LOGIN
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

you will require to login as super user

sudo su
http://cdn.imghack.se/images/17d5d60917520586988b998996924827.png

This gives you the rights to access files lists for example

As a curiosity if you do login guest guest you get this
http://cdn.imghack.se/images/f17a1a657fd9057b34e7481eafca0b72.png



CHECKING THE SYSTEM

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

After that it is necessary to find out what is in the system in terms of files and services running

ls
http://cdn.imghack.se/images/b8bb24855cc55a1de9abf469040a6682.png

and
services
http://cdn.imghack.se/images/eb416be08c54639a4721ceb2eb4d452d.jpg


OPENING FILES

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

After that if you try to load or run anything it will tell you that there are missing libraries.
Checking the services there is one library that is inactive so let's start it

start crypto_lib
http://cdn.imghack.se/images/bdf49f47ed411c37ee1c51d6f94af376.png


After that let's try running the app that matches the library we just started
run crypto.mod
http://cdn.imghack.se/images/6a1c1d3aa2b7a05879f965beb171ac1e.png

so now we can load files.Lt's our target file
load bw_agents_watchlist.mod
http://cdn.imghack.se/images/ad79da24355311d0883ec5ce795b9ce8.png



GETTING THE TARGET TO BLACKWATCH

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

If you notice there is reference to a cryptofiles.gzip. this is our target. so let's make a serve copy
scp cryptofiles.gzip

mission accomplished

Mission 5 - Beta extras

So above I posted the solution. But there are some extra things that can be done. Most of them are easter eggs but there is one that looks like it could be story related

coverops.mod

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

http://cdn.imghack.se/images/9739029165ed3e685e49036f4febc93f.png

First name is Atala. With all the typos we saw I am not sure if that was not suppose to be Alata.



Simcity2k

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Trying to run it will give you all this code in base64
http://pastebin.com/wkqsj2wU
If you copy paste all of it into a website like this http://www.draac.com/htmltester.html
you will get a screenshot of a simcity game



Global Thermonuclear war

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Yep the good old reference to wargames
Running it will forward you to this page
http://globalthermonuclearwar.net/



All the rest gives me error messages like the ones below. If anyone finds anything else please share

Hi,

After a Division66 comunication on twitter a few hours ago, we have an idea of what's coming next for mission 6:

The Black Watchmen ‏@division66 wrote:
Division 42 needs one agent on ground: April 2nd @ thirteen hundred hour, Montreal central station gate 15. Details to follow shortly.


The Black Watchmen ‏@division66 wrote:
@GuestUser17 Part of the mission need to be hand over physically. Agent need to be available until mission end.


The Black Watchmen ‏@division66 wrote:
@GuestUser17 They will have protective escort, safe house support max 2 agents... Will relay when more information come


The Black Watchmen ‏@division66 wrote:
This is an important decision, you should talk amongst yourselves WHO you sent and with what gear he have. This is the final mission. Think



We would need peoples in Montreal, and available for the day (one or two, but no more than 2).

Could anyone interested and available come to Division66 irc channel (Server: irc.freenode.net - Channel: #Division66) ?

Is anyone from Montreal or near?
I don't have time to help with the mission, but our trusted agent aberrantArbiter would like a meetup with other players during his time in Montreal.
Anyone interrested?

My brother is in Montreal just North of the locations mentioned. Unfortunately he can't get away from work at 1:00pm but he is checking with his gaming friends if anyone is willing to put their lives on the line and join aberrantArbiter.

The Mini-ARG is now over thanks to our agent on the ground in Montreal giving us info.

The Persistent ARG is going to begin soon and more exciting stuff is promised so keep on your toes guys.

Is there a walkthrough of how the last Mission was solved? I was in the IRC chatroom when the medical records were being uploaded and the "bicomplex" login was found, but beyond that I have no idea how things went from there.

By the way... after the fact, I discovered the link for the sixth image. I'll go ahead and explain it since the ARG is over and it can't be re-solved. It might be nice to add it to the solution bit, though... for the sake of completion.

After we got stuck, we managed to discover the location by manually searching for highway interchanges that matched the picture-- eventually settling on Centreville. But all of the previous solutions had established a pattern... terrible accidents, or the worst of their kind, until Luis Garavito. Garavito's image pinpointed his place of birth, prompting us to search for disasters in Genova, Colombia. It turned out that he was actually a serial killer from Genova, Colombia... which was actually the key to locating the interchanges in image six. The connection?

The Virginia Tech Massacre.

How, you ask? Well, think of the proof from image five. It broke the pattern by highlighting a specific individual, and the map clearly indicated his place of birth. What were we looking for? A 'worst of its kind' incident that had taken place in Centreville? Not quite.

" ... The massacre is the deadliest shooting incident by a single gunman in U.S. history and one of the deadliest by a single gunman worldwide ..."

Virginia Tech is located in Blacksburg, Virginia. But what of the established pattern? The shooter was Cho Seung-Hui, and if we check where he was born, well... Guess what. He was born in Korea! Smile But where did he and his family live, in the US?

Centreville, Virginia.

Google the search terms below for your proof!

The funding may have failed, but they're apparently starting something related to the story at the above link, which was tweeted out by the official Division 66 Twitter with the hashtags #thisisnotheend #arg and #mmorpg.

we've managed to get one password, and we're still not sure if we need them for the other three team members or not, though some tweets by div66 imply that there is more to be found.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
short version: go to the website, click intranet, u/n is arosenbergSPLATrosenbergclinic.com, pass is 1976. 1976 is the death of annaleise michel, whose exorcism was authorised by a bishop in wurzburg where rosenberg got one of his degrees (michel was also a student there). it's also the dob of one of the patients from mission 6, which has led to more theorisising, but the reward page + div66's tweets imply that we should be focusing on michel.
longer version: http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/1085/view/forums/post/6359601/thread/414472#6359601 has a good description, sorry for linking to another (really awful) forum.
