Comment on Kryptos by Christopher

I think that every submission of the Kryptos K-3 solution is incorrect at the end. It is not X CAN YOU SEE ANYTHING Q? It should be X CAN YOU SEE ANYTHING AQUA? The answer to that riddle is: STANDS...

Comment on Not Sure How to Tell When Masking Technique Has Been Removed in...

We know that English can be revealed through various analysis techniques performed on an entire cipher text. But, if the plain text of K4 was divided into n parts, and each part was encrypted with a...

Comment on RQ by nothingliz

Wired Love, Chapter 1 page 2 and 3. May be a helpful clue. For that noise, that little clatter,like, and yet too irregular to be the ticking of a clock, expressed to Nattie these four mystic letters:-...

Comment on Krypto Fans, Where are we at? by James

Sorry for not being brief… as a reward for tolerating this post, there is a method to convert BERLIN into the first few letters of K4 in here. Its just another coincidental occurrence, but I find it...

Comment on Krypto Fans, Where are we at? by James

A simple method can be used to convert CLOCK to K4’s MZFPK with the keyword IMPLY. Take the index of the letter in the plain-text (A->0, B->1, etc) and add the index of the letter in the keyword,...

This one doesn’t really help much … The latin word “MELIOR” can be used as a keyword for BERLIN using the tableau similar to K1/K2. That yields KVMSQQ. A ceasar shift of 3 then yields NYPVTT.

Here is another wild way to encode BERLIN (which doesn’t work for CLOCK): Assume there is a running key with the letters SSOPEN in positions 64+ to match with BERLIN. Perform a Cesear shift on the...

Comment on Krypto Fans, Where are we at? by James

Yet another goofy way to encode BERLIN. This time, I tried overlaying the tableau to the cipher text and noting the characters associated with the “?”’s in the ciphertext. The corresponding characters...

Comment on Palimpsest by James Colmer

Jim Sanborn made a deal with the CIA to use their pulped recycled (confidential) paper for his artwork. So this keyword is fairly straight forward in meaning.

Comment on Abscissa by James Colmer

The Kryptos Tableau as a Vigenere Cipher is essentially just an XYZ Co-ordinates grid. You take a letter position from the top row, and match it with a letter on the left column to get an intersecting...

Comment on Krypto Fans, Where are we at? by James

Another goose chase here. The tableau of Kryptos is unusual in that there are standard alphabets on the left and top/bottom. It is possible to use those for encoding instead of the keyed alphabet that...

Comment on Krypto Fans, Where are we at? by James

One last bit of silliness to this approach. If the word after CLOCK were JUMP, then this method would yield the word JOB after GEORGE. Of course, the method yields garbage for BERLIN so there is no...

N Y P V T T M Z F P K alphabetic number (A = 1, B = 2 and so on) minus the position of the letter gives us: 50 40 50 45 48 49 57 45 66 57 63 Translated back into letters gives us: X N X S V W E S N E K...

Comment on Krypto Fans, Where are we at? by James

Here’s another strange way to correlate CLOCK with MZFPK. But this requires a number sequence of 1,3,5,4,3 and I don’t know how to come up with that. Anyway, start by numbering the letters of CLOCK...
