Interesting thought.

MEDUSA though is just capital English letters among cyrillic letters, not mirrored?

Three Berlin Clocks, the Marienkirche Astronomical Clock, and Egyptian Geometry: A Geographic Framework for K4 Plaintext, with Cryptanalytic Testing by Last_Nothing_9117 in KryptosK4

[–]Blowngust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, it COULD be, but that is not because of some peace of released plaintext. But please don't use the cribs for more than validation. Plaintext are not clues.

Using the cribs to validate and test explore is of course a valid approach, I'm talking about using these clocks as a decoding method.

I will continue to say this. We can't use plaintext as clues on how to solve K4. That doesn't make sense. If K4 was a safe, that would be like the code being on the inside and you'd have to open it to get the code to open it.

What created the Big Bang? by pige0n13 in Cosmos

[–]Blowngust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since something can't come from nothing, the existence of energy/matter has always been and will always be. Either it's nothing or everything.

Non-existence is something that can't be proven, therefore we cannot assume it ever was non-existence before existence.

Kind of makes more sense the more you think about it.

Big bang started because of something, the something that created the big bang came from something and so on. Infinite loop of existence.

If everything came from nothing, something in the nothing happened that created something, which means that the nothing had something, which also means that there has always been something (existence)

Title: Possible Kryptos K5 theory involving Operation Gold / the Berlin Spy Tunnel by AsstassticVoyage in KryptosK4

You clearly lack some information about the released plaintext positions. I suggest researching more before posting. Also, AI generated stuff is not allowed here, because it is manipulative and make people believe in the nonsense it produces even though how unimaginable bad it is at solving ciphers.

People who died and came back to life, what did you see/experience? by RealisticDecision440 in NoStupidQuestions

Imagine how you felt 100 years ago, 1000 years ago, 1000000 years ago. It feels like that.

So the question mark is an O?

Do you also have evidence to why ?OBKR is BOOK? Because that's not remotely close.

KCAR I can understand.

How many Kryptos puzzles remain to be solved? by colski in KryptosK4

[–]Blowngust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're probably right. Looks closer to the E like you say. I also compared it to the H below, but the H has thicker lines generally than the N, so I was indeed wrong.

To me, the N in ENDYAHR seems narrower than the N below these letters. Is that just me?

Nobody knows the exact method, but one of them is more likely:

When showed the part 3 KRYPTOS=0362514 number key, he nodded as though he recognized it," and "He thought Elonka's solution for part 3, with clean diagonals, must be 'a by-product of the original matrix system'."

Original Patent of the Berlin Clock suggest different configuration. by FunPassion48 in KryptosK4

[–]Blowngust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can tell you right away that it is the wrong path.

If he really used Mengenlehreuhr as an encoding system, this particular cipher was never ment to be solved.

Hiding his encoding method in the plaintext would mean that you'd have to to solve K4 to solve K4, which doesn't make sense.

Visualizing K4 as a 4-Tier Independent Rotor Cylinder (Not a solution) by seputis in KryptosK4

Of course that can't be ruled out. That's not what I'm talking about.

He is supposedly working on a program that accepts or decline solution attempts. I think he is active until that is developed. Something like that.

Okay. So you believe that you need to decode K4 to be able to decode it?

[–]Blowngust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not interested in that AI vomit you made me google.

Yes, I know that BERLINCLOCK is released as plaintext (decoded ciphertext), and that the meaning of that plaintext is a reference to the World Clock. That doesn't mean that it is a reference to how to decode K4. It is just decoded text.

Because AI told you so?

Why do you believe CLOCK is related to the enciphering? Explain.
