Re: ARG Puzzle with 3.5 BTC Private Key Prize **Game Over**

I've taken a short walk. Downed a glass of water and had time to get a new, non frustr.. well almost non frustrated, view on the entire thing.

I've come to realise that in the last few days I've learned more about quite a few things than I'd have learned in atleast a few months. Coming away from an experience like this with new knowledge is in my honest oppinion worth more than any bitcoin, even though it would have been nice to grab a bit of the booty.

Congratulations Gatekeeper!

... and Op; Thanks for making the past few days more interesting. I could've done without the headache though. Smiley

One thing that seti does is looking for repeating non natrual patterns no?

Near the end of Wow.JPG this pattern can be found. As a matter of fact, the only thing after this is "FF D9", which someone mentioned is the "eof-signal" for jpg-files.

I don't know enough about photoshop or other image manipulating programs to say that this is manually added.
It just looks way to out of place to me.

Code:

I think we might need to look a bit at Cory Doctorow. He is the author of both Ready Player One and Little Brother.

As far as I know, the phrase we found in the qr-code leading to Again.7z has yet to be used. Can someone please verify this?

Edit: "that phrase" being: "Never underestimate the determination of a kid who is time-rich and cash-poor."

Also, I just now realised that both these books are in the bookcase behind her in that google-video-chat-thingy screenshot.

I have posted that yesterday.
Actually all books whose titles I could make out and also links to them.

Check my previous posts, you will find them.

EDIT: Guys check my post and the link for clues pls.

EDIT 2: #867

Yes you did. Sorry about that, it's getting hard to keep track of all the details. :S

How about that text from the qr-code which got us to Again.7z?

Code:
"Never underestimate the determination of a kid who is time-rich and cash-poor."

http://qr.w69b.com/g/t2lFujr0I


I've tried doing sha(sha()) on said text, the title of the book and the name of the author using a different casese, spaces, with and without hyphen-minus...
No luck so far.

Prime factorization of 2147129 (list of divisors): 41 and 52369.

Not only the hints have changed/deleted... the picture itself has also changed !!!!!
People... you've been staring at this picture for 3 straight day.... its an insult to the artist not to see the difference.... Grin Grin Grin

Back to Morse then...  sorry too tired of chasing my own tail.
I'll read about the solve tomorrow..

Really like the puzzles in this game... its was just too hard to figure out where to place the answers. Undecided Undecided


Good catch, there's a size difference too.

I seem to be missing something aswell. I've even overlayed the "old" and the "new" image and there's no difference at all between them from what I can see.

Media Header Box of Space.mp4 has modification time 3476172416 (25th February 2014), I'm guessing that's when the "Movie" was made.

No signs of when it was last modified apart from the timestamp.

No need to play it, info was in text/audio files.


Does each sound contain a distinct QR code, or do they all form one?

Same QR code in every sound file.

Out of curriosity, what software did you use to extract the spectrogram?
