Another video -

Great!

Londonfiles is off to the tennis court - hmmm

Now, I'm back to work on breaking codes.

Converted from hex to ascii:
- - - -
To Operatives on US ground.

Bruce Wayne is moving to Texas. Romeo and Juliette enjov a summer vacation
in BigBear. WATCHERS on the field. Request TRACKER in Zavalla. Option A.

To Operatives in Tribnia.

Enjoy a rainy day at the courts. Locate T and S F. Option A.

- - - -
Before I try to understand this riddle I am going back to video 006's code.

Also, after I typed out the hex from the video, I noticed a typo. I had to go back and find the mistake. SO, I might have other typos. Sometime, I will go back and double check.

Bruce Wayne = Jonas
Romeo & Juliette = Daniel & Sarah ?
T & S F = Tedd & Sally Fuller
Tribnia = Britain (from Swift's Gulliver's Travels, see below)

http://www.fullbooks.com/Gulliver-s-Travels4.html

I told him, “that in the kingdom of Tribnia, [3] by the natives called Langdon, [4] where I had sojourned some time in my travels...

[3] Anagram for Britain
[4] Almost anagram for England

deagol,

Great find!
The riddle is starting to make sense now!

Ever see "Option A" "Option B" "Option C" Option D"
from the Ho0 before?

Never seen those options in the HoO.

Now I'm trying to crack the last slide:

take an infamous comment
and add one day
multiply a pentagram
add the roman alphabet
what do you get with ThanX

All I have so far is, the infamous comment mut be the one in the description, which started the mother of all flame wars.

Then, add 24, multiply by 5, add 26, and not sure about ThanX.

How about the infamous comment as:
all your base are belong to us

or maybe not.

deagol · Post by **deagol** » Tue Jun 26, 2007 4:17 pm

Yes that's what I meant with "the one in the description."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_your_b ... long_to_us

According to this wiki page, the phrase originated with a video game (poor translation from Japanese to English that became popular on the internet in 2001-2002).

The transcript for the game begins...

Narrator: In A.D. 2101, war was beginning.
Captain: What happen ?
Mechanic: Somebody set up us the bomb.
(spoken in the Flash animation as Someone set us up the bomb)
Operator: We get signal.
Captain: What !
Operator: Main screen turn on.
Captain: It's you !!
CATS: How are you gentlemen !!
CATS: All your base are belong to us.

(((2101 + 24) x 5 ) + 26) = 10651

could be a date? 1/06/51 or 10/6/51 perhaps?

I'm not exactly an intelligent person, so I stay away from the code cracking. I am still watching though! I'm not sure exactly what is going on, but I love this videos anyways!

Impulse, did you end up getting that camcorder?

Well, I still haven't figured out the solution to the riddle, and Deagol's partial solutions are probably correct... but when I first saw the riddle my reactions were:

"take an infamous comment" ... first appearance of 436 as documented on http://www.lonelygirl15.com/lgpedia/ind ... niversisms

"add a day" ... add one to the date that 436 comment first appeared which was March 24, 2007

Again, those were my first reactions, and after reading Deagol's post on this thread, I think his answers are more likely to be the correct path to the solution to the riddle ... I'm just throwing these out as other possibilities.

Another idea is that the answer might have something to do with the Wimbledon schedule slide that was included in the video.

"what do you get with ThanX" ... either "You're welcome" or perhaps the X indicates hexidecimal coding somehow?

Does anyone have a link to where "all your base are belong to us" comment first appeared on these forums or on comments? (i.e. that started the flame war)
