Are you sure it's 252? I thought I got 270something.

Anyone wanna help me turn this into a picture?

We can at least eliminate this. Keep chugging. [Edited on 09.08.2012 9:38 AM PDT]

No one has figured this out yet!? Damn.

I put it into a decoder and discovered the puzzle resembles a Patristocrat.

Hope this helps.

81 75 02 74 81 26 in hex comes out to " u t &" in ascii or 81 75 02 74 81 26 as decimal comes out to " Q K J Q " in ascii Also, do we know if the forum ninjas know what the answer is? One of them said something interesting earlier.
-
You guys still havent solved it? Wow, maybe this is beyond any of us man
-
In case it's notable: B U N G I E = 8 17 50 27 48 126 Probably not, though.

Hah, we both edited and posted the same thing.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Locker537 I might not be on the right path at all, but here is a frequency analysis on the paragraph.[/quote] I'm glad I reloaded the page before posting, as I was about to do the same thing... Haven't found anything useful in there yet. Edit: It should be noted that J and Q do not appear in the text at all. [Edited on 09.08.2012 9:03 AM PDT]

It's from Chris Owen's Breaking In. I feel like it has no reason to be here.

That's a quote from a recent breaking in I think?

The answer is 7. See we are looking for the number 7 and can't find the number 7, therefore I shall type it and now I can see it. 7.

I'm not even upset I have no chance at this, unlike art ones. I'm just really intrigued and am rooting for someone, anyone, to solve it. :P

Ignore last edit. So there's 21 Ps in that paragraph. Didn't someone say something about 21 zeros earlier? [Edited on 09.08.2012 8:31 AM PDT]
-
Well I think I'm gonna call it but I won't leave you hanging this challenge is said to be art and well it got me thinking I replaced the "1"'s in the hex code of the passage to "7" because in the passage said that 7 overcomes 1 after that I made an [url=http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/bb379/XxCRAZYPOTATOxX/Apicture.png]Image[/url] for you guys so you maybe could use it now remember this is another theory. Ps This might look like junk but hey they made this hidden [url=http://www.moillusions.com/wp-content/uploads/i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb234/vurdlak8/illusions/5820.jpg]pedobear[/url] even though it looks like messed up lines that hurts the eyes haha.

Alright, I and a few other Code Breakers are up. I just made some breakfast, which is a delicious looking fried egg sandwhich! After this, were gonna get back on track and work to solving this thing! After this, I think we can all say NEVER to mess with the power that is David Johnson, because when you mess with that bull, you get a tactical nuke wrapped in black holes.

This is what I got with the RIDICULOUS amount of help from others. I just changed it so it made sense. [quote] Most engineers who practice computer science pragmatically repeatedly go with the common practice and leverage ones and zeroes to pen their programs. Generating code like this generally is a pretty well-founded pattern to employ. On the flip side, Bungie is not your typical engineering group. We write programs without ones. Our people do not like the number 1. Why? Well, there are greater, grander numbers to apply for our wily craft. Mayhaps you disagre, perchance you agree. What matters is that seven is more awesome than one will ever imagine itself to be. And so, we code with ample sevens, not ones. Fact: programs. [/quote] Basically, Bungie uses 7's instead of 1's in their code. [Edited on 09.08.2012 7:31 AM PDT]

Anyone answer it yet?
-
Only "7" I managed to find was flipping the entire text around and highlighting "L". That led me nowhere as well. Damn, is it possible to fail a mailsack challenge?
