Potential solution on 3rd post


Ok, here's another way to interpret the numbers.

417/333, and divided by 7, the number of Xs

417/7 = 59 remainder 4

333/7 = 47 remainder 4

So, if we take the file names as a key, we see a pattern, here is a section of them:

Courtesy of sanctum

1qaz-85tgb |
2wsx-84rfv |
3edc-83edc | These
4rfv-82wsx | Are Missing
5tgb-81qaz |
6yhn-77ujm |
7ujm-76yhn |

If we input the numbers 417 and 333, they both point to the row:

4rfv-82wsx

If we make the first number 417, the row is (82*((417/4)-remainder))+remainder:

417rfv-8529wsx

8529 corresponds to row 3edc-83edc

so to keep in line with the key we have:

417rfv-8528wsx AND

8529edc-235969edc

Now we see the multiplicators 47 and 59 in the two numbers,

If we make the first number 333, the row is:

333rfv-6807wsx

6807 corresponds to the row 3edc-83edc

so:

333rfv-6806wsx AND

6807edc-188327edc

These numbers have a pattern it seems

So we have numbers pointing to the two rows duplicated 4rfv-82wsx and 3edc-83edc so far

Where to go?

Ok, so 417 and 333 have the same remainder when divided by 7 (r4) and 4 (r1).

of course 2 (r1) and 6 (r3)

both are totally divisble by 1 and 3, and don't match with 5

hunt_admin, am i even on the right track lol?



Here is when the numbers mirror, from sanctum again, not sure if it's significant:

36 yhn - 37 ujm Entire number pattern is mirrored from here:
37 ujm - 36 yhn EG 36 yhn - 37ujm becomes 37ujm - 36yhn and so on.

Doubtful. I think we're all overthinking this and the answer will be really obvious.

I need to ask everyone their opinion on a thought i have.

Ok 3 numbers will provide the resolution yeah?

To me 3 numbers are 1 2 3 , right?

If it was numbers like this 12 23 34 this is 3 SETS of numbers, you get what i mean?

If im right then we can just list numbers 100-999 and one of the combinations is bound to be right.

Well, 41 is a NUMBER, just as 4 is a number.

41, 32, 21 would be 3 numbers, just as 4,3,2 would be.

well, just for the sake of leaving no stone unturned.....

I tried all of those combinations in the original drjim directory file name, but got an equal number of 'file not found's. Just like I have for the other 500 hundred I've tried. sigh........

I also read that thread, even though there are now more than 3 members there. I may be too thick, but I didn't see anything helpful.

Don't see how that would yield another 'hidden document'.

I'm in favor of the 'something sooo obvious we'll scream' when we finally see it. I have a few nutty ideas that I'm still working on.

Did everyone give up already? Come one, we cannot lose this. Well, here is something that I tried today. Maybe it will give others ideas.

Craig and Anne are missing. Well, I looked them up as members on ATS. I then took their ATS numbers and tried the threads #s that matched. But, nothing there.

Not even! This game processes constantly in the back of my mind, just havent been able to come up w/anything new. Anybody else as troubled by our unable-ness to "get it" as I am?? Shame on us, really, I bet when we finally see what the next step is we're all gonna be kicking ourselves in the arsenal!

I havent completely given up. After I found that gravestone. But the start of black lybrinth seriously damaged my determination about drjim.

I havent given up although the black labrinth looks good!

I've definatly not given up, i go to bed at night with the numbers 417/333 going round in my head hoping for a flash of inspiration. I keep reading and re-reading the posts in the main thread, frustrated because I know the answer is in there somewhere. I wish that we could get a little more from the hunt admin, but if he can't say anything because it will give away the answer, then it's got to be something obvious . Perhaps a little clue as to who has got the closest so far would help?

Well, I am sure that game won`t even start until after this one is concluded on the 15th of October.

Pantha.... great idea.... HA any chance of getting a hint to who was the closest in ideas? This way people can look back and try to figure out where they went wrong.
