I'm sorry...

2 + 2 + 1 + 5 + 4 + 5 + 4 + 8 + 4 + 8 + 4 + 8 + 4 + 6 + 5 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 5 + 0 + 3 + 2 + 1 + 5 = 87

not 99.

um, yeah, um Embarassed

....

apparently i got a little excited with those '48' numbers and put in one too many. at least we now know that adding up the numbers doesn't yield much... Rolling Eyes

I think we've collectively tried all the rotations possible - the only way to make the www appear and have other letters make sense is to rotate each number by a different amount; one thinks a one time pad encrypt would just be cruel :P

This feels like it could work though, we saw similar in the Marketing Week ad.

I'm a bit rubbish at all the code stuff, but for those brainier than me...

Can you use 2210 as a key to it? Or PCPS? Do those help at all with the rotations?

ever had that feeling, that you're close..

i played around with the letters today as much as i could. i think we are coming closer. perhaps the key is 2210, or other numbers on the card. ni

will try some more funky stuff.

dont forget to rot if you think you have ur final sequence of letters, it does look like a puzzle within a puzzle.

bored at work, so i checked out the international TLDs (Top-level domains) here: http://www.iana.org/cctld/cctld-whois.htm

i did this for the decryption using the simple double alphabet (ROT 0), since there the letters WWW appear - if they are part of an internet adress, there should be a domain ending in there as well.

so here are all possible international TLDs using all different combinations of the letters woTWWWUZaYGo:

.tw - taiwan
.to - tonga
.tz - tanzania
.tg - togo
.ua - ukraine
.uy - uruguay
.ug - uganda
.zw - zimbabwe
.aw - aruba
.ao - angola
.at - austria
.au - australia
.az - azerbaijan
.ag - antigua and barbuda
.ao - angola
.yt - mayotte
.yu - yugoslavia
.gw - guinea-bissau
.gt - guatemala
.gu - guam
.ga - gabon
.gy - guyana

nothing that strikes out wildly, some countries in europa, some in africa, etc. but maybe someone finds these combinations useful.

I've tried all of these - international url extensions, writing the alphabet twice (you can get the '48' to become an 'E', which creates a string that be rearranged into "cube" and some gibberish letters). I've even tried using tiny URL after several "decode" attempts. I've also tried many "mod" algorithms as suggested by the unfiction tutorial.

Several leads seem like they are very promising, then end up fadding into a swamp. I'm still working at it, though. Cool

There was a sticker from Ataturk airport or something on projectsyzygy.com, right? Maybe, wherever that is, is where the site was registered from. Like, www.____.xx, except replace the Xes with the letters of the country that Ataturk airport is in.

Now we just have to solve the maze puzzle and the large number. Someone should try the same thing on the large number.
