AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a graphic containing a coded message that initially could not be accessed due to insufficient privileges. Participants express frustration over the inability to view the image and speculate on the decryption process. One user eventually hosts the image themselves and suggests that the message might be "all your base are belong to us." Another participant explains their decryption method, which involved analyzing frequencies and making substitutions to decode the message, indicating that the solution was likely to be a well-known phrase. They reflect on the challenge of using a more obscure phrase to make the decryption more difficult.

Umm - it says I don't have sufficient priviledges to access the photo. Can you maybe post it in a different way or tell my computer to stop being insane?
 
Or, is that the decryption process you're talking about? I try to look at it and it never opens..
 
I believe it has to first be approved by moderators. This is the case in the General Discussion forum.

Try again later. If still not, I'll poke a moderator about it.

Edit: Never mind, I decided to just host it myself. See first post for link.

You tell me. Are you guessing?

How would guess that? No, I used the frequencies shown on http://www.prism.net/user/dcowley/analysub.html" (among others) and did a few substitutions until something started to make sense. Well, as much sense as this famous quote can make. :wink:

Yeah, I figured it would be solved backwards. I should have chosen a less well-known phrase to defeat that. I was hoping it would be solved by figuring out the cypher.
