My Cipher - General - Facepunch Forum

[code] 2454315190 1795100055 5072312272 3396111090 2761679152 8539389622 2519202102 12313111 [/code] I got bored so i made my own type. It does not use any existing encryption or decryption so no need to waste your time putting it through a base64 decoder or anything like that. I would really like to see someone solve it. its a murder message :O

Okay well that is cool. It is completely undecipherable unless you give us more information.

Why would we try to solve this?

Just got the results from the deciphering machine. [IMG]http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/8734/fagetdb2.png[/IMG] Why, OP? :(

[editline]22nd September 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=TehWhale;37755984]Why would we try to solve this?[/QUOTE] Its a fucking puzzle. If you don't want to try then don't.

You gave us a list of numbers. It could be any form of encryption and even the crackable forms of encryption can take universe lifetimes to crack using supercomputers, and there are types that aren't crackable at all. Plus we don't know the output, so we could make a sentence but that doesn't mean it is the correct sentence.

Facepunch is a circlejerk of computer-obsessed kids in the range of 14-23. And I mean this in an endearing way. [No sarcasm, I love the place.] While this sounds like the perfect place for such a question to be poised - no one is going to give a rats ass unless there's more incentive beyond "I made a message, lol." Not to mention, the demographic of those who know how to decode this - and have read the page/give a rat's ass - is pretty small. Cool idea though. :v:

Some Ciphers ive seen have looked much harder like the Caesar Box Code [editline]22nd September 2012[/editline] Ive edited the original cypher and removed some spaces to make it easier.

Usually ciphers are broken by finding pieces of the message, finding the resultant message, or just random hints like that. Its very hard (impossible) to look at a list of characters and know what it means. I could do all kinds of shit. What if I listed them in pairs of 5 where the sum of each set of 5 is a letter in the alphabet? Or maybe its sums of each set of 3? Maybe they multiply? Maybe the last number is the modulus of the sum of the first few numbers? The number of mathematical operations you can do on just 3 numbers is huge, let alone an entire set. But what if it isn't just mathematics? What if each set of 5 numbers corresponds to a word in a book that only the person who made the ciphers knows the title of? Maybe to be a dick the 5 numbers are once again sub-encrypted. There really is no limitation to how to encrypt a single message. The hard part is when you're making systems like internet security systems that need to be communicated on demand between clients and may potentially be spied upon by third parties. Even then its just a matter of efficiency and scalability really.

This reminds me, anyone got that 2 page cipher that no one can decipher? it was gnarly [editline]21st September 2012[/editline] Never mind, found it. [url]http://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/2011/march/cryptanalysis_032911[/url]

This reminds me guys, here's this code I want you decipher. It'll be fun! *smashes head on keyboard* There's the code, guys!

Ah well I guess I failed at making a cipher. Each number is a UPC code except for the last number on the third line, maybe that can help further someones help in cracking it.
