there is no solution

#41

Considering "40 mission have been completed by /sci/", is there like archived threads of people already trying to solve #41 or something so we don't spend all night rehashing what was already done?

>>10422894
i remember these threads

>>10423095
yes most likely

>>10422894

im wondering if the shape of the text is also some kind of hint.

>>10423095
yep, let's set this up right...

how about links to the actual archived thread sites?

how would you know this?

Explain number 19?

>>10423166
1. print it out
2. pour blood on it
3. use black light
4. see a portrait
5. take pic and google search the photo

>>10423124
Po might be Polonium
atomic number 84

>>10423186
yeah, that's much better

>>10423124
>Let's drive.
if it's a movie reference, could it be gone in 60 seconds or fast and the furious reference? fast and the furious 7 was the last numbered one

>>10423124
A bunch of numbers to spell out coordinates?

>>Let's drive.
Let's Drive by John Oates - YouTube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3d2B85Gfc0

first lyric is 16

>>10423218
seems like all rows hint at a 2 digit number, so Sweet might be something else.

>>10423238
59 31 84 16 82 28 ?? 14

Sweet 16. Every two pairs of numbers adds to something that ends with a 0.

>>10423238
16? Like sweet 16th birthday?

interpreted as Degrees, minutes, seconds the coordinates just ends up in the middle of nowhere in Hudson bay

so far...

16 (First word of "Let's Drive" by John Oates)

82? (argentinian president, died 03.31.2009 at 82)
>add seven triangular
28 (7th triangular number)

16 (sweet sixteen)
>It named the Valley.
14 (Si atomic number)

59
31
84
16
82?
28
16
14

>>10423269
numbers do seem to add in pairs to make round numbers
59 + 31 = 90
84 + 16 = 100
82 + 28 = 110
16 + 14 = 30

>>10423269
>>10423258
each row pair adds
90
100
110
30?

>>10423260
16 year olds? So I guess this is refering to jailbait, which is this one.

Now the first word in this song is Baby. And babies are babies up untill 12 months, which equals a dozen. And by god we all know babies are all but clean, so this has to refer to the dirty dozen (D 12)

And if we go to youtube and look for D 12, the first song we find is this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttWQK5VXskA

And now, check this out. At the start of this song, Eminem can be heard saying "I don't know dude."

Which, remarkably, is EXACTLY what I think when I try to come up with the answer to question #41!

>>10423273
>>10423276
ya beat me to it, how does 30 fit the pattern?

can be interpreted as an ip address, perhaps?
90.100.110.30

>>10423273
also intredasting distribution

>>10423282
ayy nice one, which is somewhere in France. Also as someone else said, the shape of the text might matter. i got no ideas but keep that in mind

Total Sum = 330
Roman Numerals = CCCXXX

>>10423269
President Alfonsin left office in 89, the sum of the first 7 triangular numbers is 84. Those don't lead to such round numbers but could be something.

>>10423288
maybe zooming in on Google earth to check if there is anything interesting on that location?
geoiplookup.net/ip/90.100.110.30

>>10423298
See See See Porn

>>10423306
Those do make a bit more sense actually

>>10423306
so
59 31 84 16 82 28 16 14
or
59 31 84 16 89 84 16 14

>>10423306
alternatively would lead to
59.31.84.16.89.84.16.14

>>10423325
Some sort of cipher for this? We have repeats of 84 and 16

>>10423124
Let's drive might be 66 for route 66. It's a thing that boomers love.

>>10423307
I went to this, and it turns out the coordinates are very very nearly round:
48°12'00.0"N and 3°16'59.9",
If you round the minutes to 17'00.0", then you could get the numbers 48, 12, 3, 16.

>>10423335
*48, 12, 3, 17
Which again look like pairs that yield 60, 20 when added, but it seems like a very far reach here.

>>10423325
wondering if this could be applied:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polybius_square

Both IP address and coordinates seem to be linked to the city of Sens in France. It may not be a coincidence.

>>10423353
the coordinates were taken from the ip look-up

>>10423353
>>10423263

>Po
oh nononono

>>10423325
I think using these numbers and interpreting as a code will work, given the repeats. An 8-letter word?

>>10423396
You could get a list of 8-letter words from the internet, put them into a program that sorts whether character 3 = character 6 and character 4 = character 7, and see what we're left with.

why is noone brute-forcing this?

like spamming the site with answers?

>>10423122
This. Thx OP.

>>10423461
It internally uses a json API

>>10423435
usually the answer from the puzzle is just like a crossword hint

>>10423466
oh it checks alright

function sendAnswer(e) {

if(toAvoidSpammingTheServerDontWorryThereIsAnotherBlockInTheBackend === true) return;

var answer = $('.answer').val().trim().toLowerCase();

attempts++;
var loader = setTimeout(function() {

>>10423476
I wonder how good is input validation.

Also can't it be the first half of an IPv6 adddress? Like
3B1F:5410:521C:100E::
or
3B1F:5410:5954:100E::
?

trying to see if this sequences can be decrypted using a nihilist cipher
https://www.dcode.fr/polybius-cipher#0>>10423325

>>10422894
Solved it. Answer is 14 june 1946.had to use an exadecimal conversion at the end lol! (Hadnt used that since highschool)

>>10423519
ha ha

>>10423519
nice larp

>>10423500
There's also sorts of cyptography solvers here, but I have zero background in cryptography, so I no idea where to start.

>>10423539
>I no idea where to start
yes this is how cryptography works

>>10422894
42.

>>10423341
>but it seems like a very far reach here
i mean thats a really bizarre coincidence that we took 4 pairs of numbers that added up to be round, which was ip address of two pairs of coordinates that added up to be round

>>10423500
I tried messing around with the base 26 cipher and the numbers to letters cipher, but didn't get anything that looked meaningful

>>10423568
Its solved already.

>>10423570
?

>>10423570
the score is still at 40

>>10423577
Its solved. 14 june 1946.

>>10423582
>>>/pol/

>>10423582
go back to twitter, donnie

I'm a complete brainlet when it comes to coding so if someone could make a program that detects word that have letters where the 3rd and 6th are the same and 4th and 7th letters are the same as well, that would speed things up. Then we just have to go in a scrabble website and obtain a list of all possible 8 letter words and brute force it.
