Your comments are extremely interesting to me, I haven't mentioned in the thread the whole story and reading your posts as nicehome you have discussed very similar methods and functions to those we have been circling for several years. SSL /X509 certs, and swf file game etc, my puzzle was supposed to help me learn about BTC  under the hood.

Quick update , the bitgo game was a mask to help hide files, or perhaps it was part of the puzzle , there was no yellow folder.

We do have a OPENPGP file which we can parse manually and extract tag5 -45 bytes,6 - 40 bytes ,13 the ID 13 is 66 bytes. We also have csv file like a seed of 7 words, which was provided but not clear is it was dropped for passwords.

Only pgp6.5.8 does complain about the file structure , we get 121 errors and 227 error in gpg

There is more clues but I won't be sharing for now, but the file size is 18812 bytes.

at about 1660 we have 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ff 87 ff ff xx xx xx
