    I think your on the right track but the your last idea seems a little bit off..

    Your idea with "5430 7650 4320" seems a little bit over thought, because well the numbers are decreasing but thats it.. no other connection

    Damn....that definitely makes it look a hell of a lot more like some sort of code.

    Nice, maybe there's something in those Cipher solutions you posted.

    Hah fun to watch :p Did anyone of You think about (5,4) array(matrix) and the Hill's cypher? It fits perfectly here :D

    Another stab in the dark, I remember reading something about the word prototype earlier in the week for the LP album,

    53282 = Proto (5=p 3=r 2=o 8=t)

    This code makes the other words come out nonsense but maybe there has to be a different key for each of the combinations, I'll keep working on this

    So in just under 3 hours we'll know if the declining digits theory is still valid, and/or maybe unlock some new pattern...

    I think there would be one overall "key" to the cipher, either a 9 or 10 character word or phrase.

    Maybe that's a code to enter in the terminal , like "311 (?) 13 (?) 49 (?)"

    Hey, at this point almost anything sound theory is worth throwing out. I mean, any decent theory is plausible till we figure this whole thing out.

    I bet you anything though that whatever pattern is next, the 2nd column and the 6th column will be the same numbers.

    nice discovery:

    "Something evil's watching over you
    Coming from the sky above
    And there's nothing you can do
    Prepare to strike, there'll be no place to run
    When your caught within the grip
    Of the evil Unicron

    Transformers
    More than meets the eye
    Transformers
    Robots in disguise"



    But I don't think it has big significance

    Very true, Hill Cipher could be useful. Only problem with that is a lot of the numbers would be above 26 which isn't possible for a Hill Cipher.

    I really hope that stays constant, because then we at least have some lead to work on.

    I'm still not sure whether we're looking for a substitution cipher or some other kind of code in the numbers, though, and that's the most frustrating part. We're throwing random things at the numbers hoping they stick, but we don't even know what's supposed to happen if something _does_ stick. If the numbers are actually a substitution cipher, then any patterns we've found are basically useless.

    Prototype was a fake album title.

    They key must be related withTRANSFORMERS, as "more than meets the eye" is part of the song lyrics of transformers...

    Oddly enough...it's been tried, and nothing came of it.

    I officially give up if you are actually being serious.
