I'm thinking they're just giving us some random hex. I tried entering it into a hex editor, to see if it was text or something, but nothing.jks wrote:jks wrote:Another solution would be to look at all these codes and apply some cryptography to them.
Edit: I applied the first rule in cryptography to the posted code in the message, which is to find out what the characters used are and see how many times they show up, if one or more character shows up a lot more than others than you may have a case of simple swapping, where the ones that show up a lot more are vowels and so forth, this is what I found:

Countdown is done, the interweb is still working, I don't hear any ICBMs whistling toward us, we're all still here, and I think we can all relax in knowing that this was just a hoax. There's no link explaining the site. The main page reads
"NaNd:NaNh:NaNm:NaNs". "NaN" stands for "Not a Number", and that is proof that the countdown has reached zero.

Wow. I don't know about you guys, but I think this si pretty pimpin'. How fun would it be to have a website that people had no idea what it was, so scared/confused there is a freacking wikipedia article on it, then set a countdown to nothing, leave meaningless clues and creep people out.

Well, that doesn't match any of the expected letter frequencies of the English language, and I can't be bothered to try any more complex cryptoanalysis so...jks wrote:jks wrote:Another solution would be to look at all these codes and apply some cryptography to them.

I think you're on to something.rossmum wrote:Or just ignore the thing outright.

it'd be neat to see a site of that type that you started get covered on the news, people were so worked up. then whenever it's countdown thing ends, post a message on the front page saying "sorry about all the tension, but this is a site i made in my spare time to get you guys worked up over. it has no point, it isn't behind or part of any conspiracy, and all the time you've spent thinking about this site, you could've been doing better things with your life."Doctor wrote:Wow.
