Code and Code Breaking

[Snowflake]

This is really unfortunate indeed. Maybe comrade Vev should talk John into joining the CyCon.

That guys still participates in the Hive discussions? ROFL. Man, that guy was funny! I think he thought we were all freaks.

The last time I was in the discussion, one of us kept on nerve-stapling him.

[Vev]

He might be interested. He does not care about the game but he really, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, REALLY wants to break the code. He spent 30 hours on the code and all he came up with is:
highly likely 9 bit per character
which posts are using the current encryption
possibly XOR based on previous characters

What John needs now is some plaintext for target to figure out the offset.

He should join apolyton and just hang out in the Off Topic, if he doesn't play any games.

How about a challenge to CyCon say give us a plaintext sentence and the corresponding code and see if we could figure it out? We could do the same for them with our 6 digit code?

If the CyCon wishes to keep posting codes, I've written a new cipher. This time it should be more secure.

I didn't remember you were nerve-stapled even before you join John.

Uh huh nerve-stapled frequently, Vev had to explain what nervestapling was though since I hadn't played AC before.

I thought you guys were pretty funny too.
