[RINGS] Find the rings? - Solve it HERE!

aahHH... Hadnt thought about that..
Im looking at it right now, trying to find difrrent kinds of ciphertexts.

okay, teams in place, let's do it !


Good Luck Guys,

Vigenere or Beaufort cypher's are polyalphabetic cyphers?

We got a hint, and im counting on that we need it to decifer the text:
38973 23 00346 2134 087310 783247 728 81723 721873

There are alot of members , know way all the teams are made. lol

OUR team is in place. We got a head start. Team, let's head to U2U.


Mmm mmm, competition

No, Vigenere and Beaufort are simple substitution cyphers. They use only one replacement scheme and require only one key. Polyalphabetic cyphers use two replacement schemes and require two keys.

I haven't been on ATS in a while, and don't really understand this whole Find the Rings thing. I just saw all the posts and am wondering if the Mods have given any hint? I've read through the posts and still don't get the whole thing... If someone could help me get started... please do!

it's intriguing and all, but i think people are jumping the gun here....does it not say "the search begins 05, 2004"?????

I saw all the number things... and like the 1+1+1+1=? thing... All I could come up with that was that they are adding 4 1's... and there are only 4 1's in that code thingy... But I'm sure that has absolutely nothing to do with this... But yeah... I do believe it doesn't start till May.

maybe that's a date being put there to throw us off?

I see no harm in jumping in right away

well the original message does mention 4 strangers, 4 voices.... 1+1+1+1= what else the 4 strangers, 4 voices.??? who knows for sure, but that's my take on it.

I don't see how you can really jump in right now, If noones quite sure where to start or what we're trying to find...

just noticed a new forum has been created called "The Hunt"....hmmmm more intrigue

I think everyone is jumping the gun somewhat. The "hunt" doesn't begin until next month, but staff are already aware of members looking at code e.t.c. so they've obviously decided to have a little fun and play with us.

Don't take the bait.

Nada is one of them! Jump 'im!

Hmmm just got back from a long day at college and saw the new thread. Very interesting stuff

What a bunch of nutters. Good things come to those who WAIT.

Why open a forum a month in advance? All it says is that the search starts 5-2004. Maybe they are already releasing clues?

to keep us all intrigued, excited and wanting to know more. Speculation drives business in many fields including here just my 2 cents and i could be totally wrong.

i have put;
