I'm having trouble reproducing the length XOR decode. My understanding from crax0r's breakdown is: you concat the length bits in this order:

Inner Bottom, L2R
Inner Left, T2B
Inner Right, T2B
Inner Top, R2L
Outer Top, R2L
OuterBottom, L2R

Based on this, Inner Bottom L2R is

Code:
011111011111011111011010001110001
XOR'ing with 011010 (starting with second bit) gives us:

Code:
0 111110 111110 111110 110100 011100 01
- 011010 011010 011010 011010 011010 011010

- 100100 100100 100100 101110 000110

Then we run that through the v2 Bacon cipher, (omitting a character?)

Code:
- 100100 100100 100100 101110 000110
- 10010x 10010x 10010x 10111x 00011x
- S, S, S, -, D

Or, if we don't omit any characters and simply take them 5 bits at a time:

Code:
- 100100 100100 100100 101110 000110
- 10010 01001 00100 10010 11100 00110
- S, J, E, S, nil, G

And/or shifting 1 so 00000 = nil but 00001 = A. Regardless, I can't reproduce any of the patterns here.
