Secret Codes on OML - Chemoeum - 10-12-2013 07:25 AM
I'm feeling like a spy guy. So I read this book about 01100011 01101111 01100100 01100101 01110011 (binary), and I was also inspired by the - .-. .- -. ... .-.. .- - .. --- -. (morse) game thread. So I thought if we had our own set of ⠎⠑⠉⠗⠑⠞ (braille) codes, it'd be pretty cool.
Otherwise, it's just stupid.
AWOL threads are funny.

Let me guess. Based only on what i can read and no deciphering, i think the coded words are spies, translation, and secret. Am i close?

The first word was "codes" actually. Also, strictly speaking, the first code is ASCII expressed in binary. Binary is not a code but simply a numeral system.
We should totally invent a secret code! Or maybe a simple encryption/decryption algorithm that we could perform by hand relatively easily. That might be fun, too.
Actually, if PMs were working, then we could just send one-time pads to each other and no one would be able to decipher our messages without stealing our PMs.
Anyway, I'll give an example encryption algorithm, if you're interested.
Here is an encrypted message:
Qgn ruzobfho, xuq sp bjoidscf htsi rtzhdnd.
And here is the procedure:
Encryption:
For each word:
1. Rotate the letters to the left by two positions.
(e.g. "example" becomes "ampleex")
2. Change each letter into the letter just before or after it, starting with before, and then alternating with each letter.
Treat the alphabet as a cycle, so that "z" is considered before "a" and "a" is considered after "z".
(e.g. "ampleex" becomes "znomdfw").
Decryption:

if you type iseedeadpeople in-game the fog of war disappears

if you type "there is now cow level" in-game your opponent automatically forfeits

Are they not working?
RE: Secret Codes on OML - Mag!cGuy - 10-25-2013 08:36 PM
they do't work for around 2 months now
No one told you?
RE: Secret Codes on OML - .Memories. - 10-26-2013 12:21 AM
They should be working now - I posted in the "Bug Report" thread that Alex got back to my email saying they were fixed. I tested it (only once) but it sent.
RE: Secret Codes on OML - TheGoldenGriffin - 10-26-2013 02:43 AM
I tested it and the PM showed up twice in Tracking but one doesn't have a recipient
RE: Secret Codes on OML - awpertunity - 10-26-2013 06:29 AM
I've used 3 PMs this last week and they all worked fine
