From the hexadecimal, you wrote the code to pull out the 7's and 0's and to put them in order and translate 7's to 1's. How did you know to do that from this: 4d 4f 53 54 45 4e 47 49 4e 45 45 52 53 57 48 4f 50 52 41 43 54 49 43 45 43 4f 4 d 50 55 54 45 52 53 43 49 45 4e 43 45 50 52 41 47 4d 41 54 49 43 41 4c 4c 59 52 45 50 45 41 54 45 44 4c 59 47 4f 57 49 54 48 54 48 45 43 4f 4d 4d 4f 4e 50 52 41 43 54 49 43 45 41 4e 44 4c 45 56 45 52 41 47 45 4f 4e 45 53 41 4e 44 5a 45 52 4 f 45 53 54 4f 50 45 4e 54 48 45 49 52 50 52 4f 47 52 41 4d 53 2e 47 45 4e 45 52 41 54 49 4e 47 43 4f 44 45 4c 49 4b 45 54 48 49 53 47 45 4e 45 52 41 4c 4c 59 49 53 41 50 52 45 54 54 59 57 45 4c 4c 2d 46 4f 55 4e 44 45 44 50 41 54 54 45 52 4 e 54 4f 45 4d 50 4c 4f 59 2e 4f 4e 54 48 45 46 4c 49 50 53 49 44 45 2c 42 55 4e 47 49 45 49 53 4e 4f 54 59 4f 55 52 54 59 50 49 43 41 4c 45 4e 47 49 4e 45 45 52 49 4e 47 47 52 4f 55 50 2e 57 45 57 52 49 54 45 50 52 4f 47 52 41 4d 53 57 49 5 4 48 4f 55 54 4f 4e 45 53 2e 4f 55 52 50 45 4f 50 4c 45 44 4f 4e 4f 54 4c 49 4b 45 54 48 45 4e 55 4d 42 45 52 2e 57 48 59 57 45 4c 4c 2c 54 48 45 52 45 41 52 45 47 52 45 41 54 45 52 2c 47 52 41 4e 44 45 52 4e 55 4d 42 45 52 53 54 4f 41 50 5 0 4c 59 46 4f 52 4f 55 52 57 49 4c 59 43 52 41 46 54 2e 4d 41 59 48 41 50 59 4f 55 44 49 53 41 47 52 45 45 2c 50 45 52 43 48 41 4e 43 45 59 4f 55 41 47 52 45 45 2e 57 48 41 54 4d 41 54 54 45 52 53 49 53 54 48 41 54 53 45 56 45 4e 49 53 4d 4 f 52 45 41 57 45 53 4f 4d 45 54 48 41 4e 4f 4e 45 57 49 4c 4c 45 56 45 52 49 4d 41 47 49 4e 45 49 54 53 45 4c 46 54 4f 42 45 2e 41 4e 44 53 4f 2c 57 45 43 4f 44 45 57 49 54 48 41 4d 50 4c 45 53 45 56 45 4e 53 2c 4e 4f 54 4f 4e 45 53 2e 46 4 1 43 54 3a 50 52 4f 47 52 41 4d 53 50 41 43 4b 45 44 57 49 54 48 53 45 56 45 4e 53 41 52 45 4d 4f 52 45 41 57 45 53 4f 4d 45 54 48 41 4e 50 49 54 48 59 50 52 4f 47 52 41 4d 53 54 48 41 54 41 50 50 4c 59 4f 4e 45 53 2e 5a 45 52 4f 45 53 57 4 5 4c 4c 2c 57 45 53 54 49 4c 4c 54 48 49 4e 4b 54 48 45 59 27 52 45 47 4f 4f 44 2e 50 52 45 54 54 59 50 41 4c 41 54 41 42 4c 45 2e 57 45 47 52 41 50 50 4c 45 57 49 54 48 5a 45 52 4f 45 53 41 4c 4c 54 48 45 54 49 4d 45 2e 45 56 45 4e 4e 4f 5 7 2e 59 45 53 2e 48 45 52 45 2e 43 41 4e 59 4f 55 50 45 4f 50 4c 45 53 45 45 54 48 45 4d 3f 52 49 47 48 54 48 45 52 45 49 4e 54 48 49 53 4c 4f 4e 47 54 45 58 54 50 41 55 53 45 54 4f 54 41 4b 45 41 4c 4f 4e 47 4c 4f 4f 4b 2e 50 45 52 43 48 4 1 4e 43 45 54 48 49 53 48 41 53 42 45 45 4e 41 57 49 4c 59 47 41 4d 42 49 54 41 4c 4c 54 48 49 53 54 49 4d 45 3f 57 45 4c 4c 2c 50 4f 4c 49 53 48 54 48 4f 53 45 54 48 49 4e 4b 49 4e 47 43 41 50 53 2e 59 4f 55 48 41 56 45 41 4d 50 4c 45 4e 5 5 4d 42 45 52 53 54 4f 46 49 4e 52 44 2e 48 41 56 45 53 4f 4d 45 46 55 4e 21 53 54 41 59 48 41 50 50 59 2e[/quote] It was a guess :P I literally tried a hundred different things and well my brain makes connections between the weirdest of things, probably why I love computer science and AI.[/quote] Which is why all of us in the skype chat meant to solve this are kicking ourselves for not thinking about doing that lol. Nonetheless, congrats on your awesome find sire :)
