isitafox Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Apparently the gov are looking for code crackers to employ in the hunt for terrorists and the like. All you have to do to be eligible for consideration is crack the code on this website. Any takers on here? I had a look but wouldn't know where to begin!

Rich J Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Solving the code just takes you to that page, which then suggests going to the website to apply. As far as I know the code is just marketing, it doesn't benefit your application. I was hoping you get flashy lights and stuff. I didnt solve the code, I am trying though.

AdamR28 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I am guess the fact that you can access that page without cracking the code means that someone has just found the URL? Or Rich is really good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Isn't that some message written in a hexadecimal system? Or is there more to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDâ„¢ Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) Isn't that some message written in a hexadecimal system? Or is there more to it? Doesn't convert from a hex convertor I found on Google, which is when I realised I couldn't be bothered to try others. Does look very similar though. EDIT: Ignore the crap out of me. It's quite clearly hex. I was trying to convert straight to ASCii and that doesn't work. You can convert to decimal, but then you're left with a big load of numbers from 0-255 which is hardly more helpful!
