I did the exact same thing and was very disappointed that it didn't work.
5KZnsvrXDcP7JFD7GCuZvifrbcBtK4kAe8nHx6ibktgvPJxs4Lp is wrong though. This is the correct one albeit still not the answer:
5KZnsvrXDcP7JFD7GCuZvifrbEBtK4kAe8nHx6ibktgvPJxs4Lp

You are wrong Gatekeeper. For reference the reason why it does get imported is here:

play around with it a bit.

This probably has no significance since this is a JPG picture

This can be found on the internet and when overlapped with Crops.jpg you can see a difference in the dots.

I am finding the original colored image file from the puzzle here: http://kodczasu.pl/viewtopic.php?p=8866

Not sure if the overlay approach makes sense.
of course it makes sense. That way i was able to quickly see what was changed. Certainly it is only the change dots that are relevant. The decoded version is somewhere above.

Ah sorry, I thought you were using a B&W I'd seen previously, didn't realize the colors were changed. Interestingly some of the greens in the outer spiral are not changed in hue but made a little larger.

Now I'm caught up, whee. Wish I had a little time to focus on this today.

You are not caught up no. arg has the answer - we don't


arg-sidekick what about this quote?

This is not about the original cropcircle picture.
This is about coinartist's version. Get back on track

we have the decode the inner part of the circle, about 3 lines
I have already done that. See above

I'm not sure about the question mark at the end. Perhabs it has to be omitted
Also the Crops.jpg image part has the creation time

It is impossible for near everyone to solve this. arg can do it because he is good at linux and has the correct tools. We have no chance. I have a bruteforcer but there is no way i can tell it to sha the dictionary. Also i cannot double sha it using the second sha as a fucking Huh?string?Huh

Guys, sorry posting from my phone but didn't one member discover that uninstalling the game leaves some files behind?

Yes, the audio files that were added by YT. One is unused, but I can't identify it.

You said the same QR-code were in all of them. Is there still one audio file you havn't solved?

The split.bin is what is appended to space.mp4. split.bin got shifted -100 byte and thus gave a .7z archive we now call another.7z (arbitrary)

what's with the number 2147129 ? I can't find anything on that.

Converted to hex it's 20c339. It reminded me of the standard RGB color representation, and it is this green color:
http://i.imgur.com/Z29ZCIv.png

I looked at it aswell. And since we don't need a password but a new "source" i checked the RGB values

RGB   32   195   57
This could/could not be part of an IP aka:
32.195.57.xx ->United States Lake Mary AT&T Global Network Services Llc
xx.32.195.57 -> impossible to tell

I got an answer but my work computer wont let me access next step.

So I will have to update tonight from home computer.

You could tell us. I'm pretty sure we are far from the end anyway

triangle with 10 dots inside it looks like Pythagorean Tetractys

It sure does. Also tetraktys represents the four elements. And a circle represents the fifth element.

bahh. sha[sha[again/Again/again.7z/Again.7z]] doesn't work

I don't think arg has it. He posts stuff 4chan would. He is a troll.

I'm pretty sure this has to do with the elements. Just have to get the password right!

I'm trying passwords like
"Fire Earth Air Water Ether"

Posting from my phone so change Ether with heart and see what comes up pls.....

Thanks, Love you  Kiss
No luck

I'm trying passwords like
"Fire Earth Air Water Ether"

same...
do you think we have to double SHA again?
I don't think we have to double SHA. But i just might be wrong because what i'm doing certainly doesn't work

That might just be the chemical composition of the missing element?

Any Bio scientist on here?

Chemist. Nope.

password found:

5ef4621b7af0ee409e569e53377fa2513270b4a7e08ec09888f2146f4a194b9a

Double SHA-256 of Tomb of Horrors

edit: im genius hahahahaah xD
Well done dude! How did you know that double hashing would work / help?

I still haven't understood "Bit Sha", anyone care to explain it to me?

After OP linked to the bitcoin protocol we all understood what she meant. then the question was only if it was double sha or sha+ripe-md160. Turned out to be double sha.

The thing that bugs me about the double SHA thing is that the second SHA is taken on the STRING value and not the hex value.
