No, I wrote and compiled this myself to start the new thread. We have a previous thread here, but it's very old and we get a lot of people confused by the misleading title/lack of info in the OP. Our wiki is pretty outdated and I didn't think it was really the place to put this.

I have a link in the very first post to skip the wall of text and start from the first "update" post. If you'd prefer we move the information someplace else, that's fine! Sorry for any inconvenience, I know it's a crazy amount of information. It's just that all of this info was disorganized before, and it was very difficult to find any specific thing.

No no, it's fine. I wasn't posting as a mod I was posting as a user. However I shoudk probably lock the other thread then and post a link to this one on it.

Thank you. We can finally link potential players to this excellent summary instead of saying "go read 75 pages of UF forum posts". Thanks, Adah. Awesome.

So here's a little update about the black book. In #ARG on Freenode, counterops agent Meki has been hammering away at training Tesseract OCR against the pictures of the black book. It was slow going at first, and personally I've had a lot of experience using OCR (or trying to) and had very little faith that it was going to work. It seems 10 years is an eternity in OCR software development. Meki has achieved OCR scans with about 0.5% error rate, and perhaps 90-95% of the errors in OCR are transcription errors with the letter "B" and the number "8". This is profoundly good in terms of OCR, and Meki deserves a lot of praise for his hard work and dedication. I had been shopping around for outsource transcription services (like India or the Philippines where this kind of labor is relatively cheap), but using this method, we could do this ourselves, since the task has now become proofreading instead of transcribing. I have no estimates for this workload, but I think the future of this encrypted text has just gotten a lot brighter. Thanks, Meki!
