I MEAN, A BUNCH OF HOMOSEX NUMBERS IS NOT REALLY HELPING HERE BRO, GIVE ME SOMETHING I CAN UNDESTAND RIGHT OFF THE BAT, NO NEED TO DO CRYPTIC BORING GAY ASS SHIT.

JUST TELL ME IN PLAIN SPANISH HOW THE FUCK CAN I BE RICH.

>>18243677
Is a bunch of numbers

>>18243689
>>18243690
Lack of critical thinking skills.

>>18243699
Those numbers mean "something" no?

>>18243677
Why would you post this?

Does the large chip resting on your shoulder not cause discomfort?

>>18243786

Lack of sex and social skills.

It is more likely than you think...

>>18243677
all i can say is that it looks like octal, but it doesn't really equate to anything in hex or ascii. So assuming its not just garbage, its probably a vigenere cipher or the like, with the key(s) being "Knock" or A/B. But if its not english i give up, just so much effort for what is most likely nonsense. I'll give it another crack tomorrow.

If it is cryptic darkness you offer, I have no need of it, for the darkness I have seen is darker, deeper, farther reaching, and made plain.

To the seekers: Tread lightly...

Fascinating. I'm making progress. Anyone else?

>>18247622
I watch others make progress.

There is nowhere that I could go, nothing that I could do. So I watch others make progress. They never stop progressing even when they believe they do.
Fascinating stuff.
Is like watching small flies gathering around a lit lamppost in the evening.
They all progress. Every evening.

Why do internet cults insist on people solving ciphers? Like
>hey guys we have some super secret and cool knowledge that we can only gift to those worthy
>"oh sweet, how do I get a chance to unravel this mystery?"
>lol just play some numbers games with me

even cults and hermetic sects of old would approach doctors and respected individuals in person or through a pretty opaque letter. this is just asking for a bunch of people tactful at encryption alone. Hell, my father could have probably decoded this, and he was under the impression that wiccans were satanic.

also, as far as I can tell, the source of the OP pic named after your little group is ripped straight from somebody's art blog. hell, I don't even have any reason to look into this other than 2 sentences that sound like edgt pre-teen poetry.

advertise your internet cult right, or not at all.

The search for those whom long for more begins here. Knowledge and Wisdom hath become a forgotten necessity, lost behind societies' unintelligent trends. We seek intelligent individuals, with like minded goals and skills. To find them, they first must find us; to do so, is to follow the Way, find the Truth within, and embrace the Darkness. From here on out, we shall only use PGP Signatures on the path; if there is no signature on our messages, then there is no us. Find our signature on the MIT Key Server: 7178E3F2 We hope to see you soon; farewell. http://imgur.com/a/KN0Zt

>>18247943
sweet thanks for the cheat code. :-)

>>18247943
Why do you have to talk like a complete retard?
I am looking for smart people too and you're giving me a hard time believing that you have anything of value to say.

>but muh wisdom
>only to the ears of understanding

I understand you are playing the role of a trickster who even fell for himself.

>>18247943
I was thinking they were using some kind of steganography on the image linked but I have not extracted anything yet. I might be over thinking things at this point.

>>18247943
ahh here is the email and their key

>>18247992
I decrypted it. It says there is something hidden in the image. I cant get anything via stenography however

>>18248569
....but i know jack shit about stenography

Just a hint from somebody who knows about stenography - and who finds this challenge absurdly easy.
Look in the quantized DCT coefficients of the JPEG.

I ain't got all night to crack a code, you want henchmen or not?

>>18247748

I'm too tired to find the signature in the gif, ill be back tomorrow

>>18247943
Go back and finish comprehending the first level fully before trying to act as the gate keepers.

Also in our times the word "Darkness" is misunderstood and associated with the bad meaning of negative.

To clarify for those who don't understand;
To embrace the Darkness, means to Shine.

>>18247975
You are the dumbest motherfucker on 4chan I think I've ever seen in this entire lifetime

>>18249103
>being this edgy
Stop projecting, kid.

I just told you you come off as a retard and that you very likely have nothing of value to say, and you come along to prove it.
Obviously it's you who is the dumb motherfucker.

But you don't wanna live with it, right? That's what a dumb motherfucker does.

>>18248769
I can't get jsteg or steganalysis to compile. What program are you using?

It's possible that they also posted this:

We seek those whom wish for more;
for those who sought have found us.

For those whom fell behind:

This is the last chance,

So there is a poem, translated from Latin via google.

A'la old man, an old man, a wise man, speak to this young man, he came to.
Turns spent two months in the life of many common myths
Miracle, wisdom, faith, and of the subject.
The elders spoke to him; "A wise man, who is their inward, to embrace the darkness,
and they shall know that all things are true ". heavence young man in a laughing-stock,
"How can it be done without the cause of the evil is in the dark
questions? "
The elder to a grin on his face and said: "I will not disturb the gray line,
of darkness and evil, can not do much from one another. one
peace and solitude of knowledge; another to act to
already dark and violent act
Ectem the works of God in the judgment, in the dark, because they do not profit thee daily.

I verified that the 7007.txt that is extracted from the imgur link has a valid signature for Remnants <[email protected]>. I am not sure on the latin, perhaps it's a red herring. Has any one else taken a look at the file?

This was also posted on /g/, but the archive just shows them telling these guys to fuck off and post on /x/

I noticed something else in that file. Did anyone see the @XkR314717? What is it for?

I'm stupid so enlighten me, is it octal->ascii then cipher. Or does is it a cipher to hex or something.

It's not octal, otherwise there wouldn't be ‘8’ or ‘9‘ digits. It's just decimal. You're probably overthinking it.

Is this an NSA recruitment honeypot? I have a feeling a few of you are going to be seeing some unmarked vans parked in front of your houses very soon.

>>18254373
these ARG are never like that, if anything it would be some MIT student experimenting

I know its late, but the scribbles in the imgur say:

"We only want the best of the best among us;thus, figure out how to get to the information behind this image

It shall only lead you to find us

The remnants"

I thought that would be obvious, but felt like translating

>>18254373
Iv grown so tired of these ARG puzzles because they all follow the same cryptic religious bullcrap and either lead to nothing or become malware

>>18254410
One ARG was actually connected to a real pagan pedophile cult. I'm not lying. Some of the vids are still on YouTube, but I am not sharing any links with anyone.

>>18254373

no.. if anything it is someone renting web hosting then getting traffic revenue from all of you clicking on shit. if they post on multiple forums they can drive up quite a lot of traffic from just curious folk

>>18254417
Well that would be fucking retarded

Why would anyone go through the trouble of coding everything and asking for people to build a hidden service website if they intended to fuck round? Seems a little far fetched for no reason to me.

>>18254498
coding what? every thing so far has been/can been done with simple free tools. One program and a few encoding sites. In other words pretty basic, tor hosting is definitely more difficult but there are a ton of tutorials and even onion hosts.

>>18254512
You may be right it is pretty simple; but they might just be trying to see if anyone is interested. Either way they just posted on their twitter account @XkR314717 a pastebin link. I should follow them but I'm lazy

>>18254527
