Age of Turing

Hey! This is a thread following Age of Turing...like that wasn't obvious.
This is my first time posting really, so bear with me.

Hey!
Age of Turing: What if Alan Turing had lived?
Here's the website link: http://www.ageofturing.com/
Cool
This is the message we received in our emails:
The situation between Humans & AI continues to become more polarized.

The news of a growing anti-drone movement, and most recently, Hitchbot suddenly coming to a tragic end in Philadelphia are among the latest in a long series of surfacing reports of AI & Robot abuse that have been reaching unprecedented heights lately.

Meanwhile, similar reports of a pro AI & Robot rebellion are surfacing as well, the latest one concerning the defacing of noai.co, an Anti AI organization that is looking to start a petition to stop further research and development of AI.

Will we be forced into picking sides in this impending conflict between those who support AI and those who want all AI banned to protect humanity?

Troubling times lie ahead for us all.

(i prefer clean URLs without someone else's referral info)

also, I realize you are new, so I'll let you know that it is not necessary to quote yourself, nor is it necessary to "double post" by replying to yourself, especially within the span of an hour. Instead, navigate to your last post and find the icon. (of course, now you can add a reply below mine)

Here are some more people/sites that seem to be correlated to this ARG

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDuClKOjzB5TH7geFlpRRMw
(The lady in the videos seems to be a member of an anti-bullying group within the universe of Age of Turing, and has a Youtube channel and website www.origamiforward.com that also promotes anti-bullying)

More Twitter links (most of these are most likely puppetmasters but some could be players):

https://twitter.com/Samtree18
(The bio of this account is in Spanish, but the recent tweets are in English, which is odd)

The "no drones network" blog doesn't seem to be correlated with the game, but we should keep an eye on it just in case. This post will be updated with new links as the game begins

H

Has anyone noticed this picture yet? http://goo.gl/gPbJy0

if you look closely at the H in the typewriter, you'll notice it's in a red square. could this be referring to H4181TA1?

UNsolved puzzles

A number of puzzles have been released recently as Abigail is exploring the Moirai Institute. Some are collected here - http://age-of-turing.wikia.com/wiki/Challenges/Puzzles and here https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/101847378823622851218

and there were a couple more released over the last couple days that are not yet solved.

The latest one starts here - https://twitter.com/moiraibot/status/645097926742667264 which is a tweet from the Moirai Institute twitterbot with this puzzle link - http://moirai.institute/test/machine2god/ThePath/AndTheSacrifice/Call%20me.jpg , The Moiraibot has been releasing more puzzles as well as more being found by players

I would love to help you with the ciphers, but they are difficult to transcribe. Maybe I see this?
Code:
ROBNL
CCASJ
KRSNV
PVHBL
BJBSS
RWULR
GWFGq
RENCG
YTEGA
KMTET
GLLSH
LTEMT
STTSL
TKFTL
...

Honestly, I don't want to put any effort into decrypting this without a good starting point. It's probably a Playfair cipher, based on the sets of 5 letters, but I lost my cracker program with an operating system upgrade years ago.

Good luck.

I wish that I had seen this one earlier. Somehow I managed to miss both the Kickstarter campaign and the game launch. Sad
It looks to have a competent team, a well prepared plot and a nifty puzzle or two. Plus I'm automatically interested in anything involving artificial intelligence and/or robots.

At this point I'm trying to catch up before it all concludes. Right now I'm looking at the surveillance .jpg files linked to by the various 404 error pages which occur at http://zgeizt.com/
