ArmA 2 site hacked

[Varanon 892]

My first thought on seeing the word “senary†was “Diceware†(you know, “11356†for “airfield†etc) – but having looked at the number strings, there’s no “zero†in diceware list, so these can’t be encoded words.

Maybe add 1 to each number, getting them from 0-5 into 1-6 ?

Although that's probably a long shot

Edit: Tried it, doesn't make sense (would be 'd force abuse arch')

I just got shit when i try to 'translate' the numbers from anything to anything. i have no chance. :(

[Janxy 10]

Could that be time? The military time is written without ':'

That was my first impression too.

[maddogx 13]

I think I'll document my thought process here, in case someone spots something I didn't. :)

There are twenty senary digits. That means they can be divided into either 2x10, 4x5, 5x4, 10x2, 20x1, or some weird mix.

I've never used senary numbers in my life, or even seen them being used, so I am assuming they need to be converted to something else.

ASCII comes to mind, but doesn't seem to produce usable results.

[fransie 1]

When I convert the senary sequence to letters here, I get "EEPPJORAZXR".

RAZXR reminds me of Razor

EEPP might mean ep2, hinting at a new expansion

[birtuma 28]

Could the numbers be coordinates?

[klamacz 448]

Thanks MadDogX

Decimal representation is: 736456014279978

which is 15 digits long, so it can be 5x3 or 3x5

Tried to convert that but no luck yet

I actually thought it might be a UNIX timestamp, but it doesn't seem to be, the number is way too high. If it is a timestamp, ti might use a different epoch.

Windows timestamp would yield a valid date, but that date is Sat May 03 1603 11:06:41 GMT+0200. Not useful I suppose.

Tried that already on google maps, no luck - ocean only ;)

[maddogx 13]

The unix timestamp was 1305544277 just now. Ten decimal digits.

a is possible you can send the tue cordinate for goggle earth ?

[Tonci87 163]

If this is the right answer

1113 0151 1200 1010 1310

shouldn´t it be like this then?

1113 0151 1200 1010 1310:5

Does that make any sense?

[Gedis 0]

AAN is hinting about the date.

[maddogx 13]

AAN is hinting about the date.

Of course, I overlooked that fact before. AAN asked them when we would recieve information, and they answered with the 20 questions.

So the result of this should turn out to be either a date, timestamp, or perhaps the name of an event (E3).

[Alwarren 2767]

1113 0151 1200 1010 1310

Don't think so. All the other answers were taken without including the actual answers (just the choice)

[Tonci87 163]

Oh, Yes I missed the from Zero to... part in the question...

Email the answers to someone at BI?

[marceldev89 89]

Shouldn't the code be

15151517 5151115 15455 155155 1517155

Instead of

1113 0151 1200 1010 1310

:confused:

'Senary numeral system' means numbers from zero to:

0: 5

1: 15

2: 4

3: 17

4: 7

5: 11

[smookie 11]

It looks like another question appeared... http://www.aan-online.com/en/p8h8-attack/35-current-status-on-the-hacker-situation.html

[Hoot1988 0]

"Was the AN-94 Abakan assault rifle meant to replace the AK series in the Russian armed forces?"

Wiki says yes, so its:

1113 0151 11200 1010 1310

[maddogx 13]

WTF, they added a question. :confused:

I guess they made a mistake at first.

[Mainstriker 0]

Wiki says:

The Russian Government formally declared the AN-94 to be the successor & replacement to the legendary Kalashnikov series of rifles following the Project Abakan advanced assault rifle trials in the USSR throughout the 1980s.

so "yes" = 1

New set of numbers:

0 1 1 3 0 1 5 1 1 1 2 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 3 1 0

[fransie 1]

wikipedia says Yes

[-=-Khaos-=- 10]

Yes it was.

"The Russian Government formally declared the AN-94 to be the successor & replacement to the legendary Kalashnikov series of rifles following the Project Abakan advanced assault rifle trials in the USSR throughout the 1980s."
