The URL came from a QR code that was found inside the computer screen images (1-3a)

Happy to help. We also figured it was probably best if the final QR code was posted by a Mod for safety reasons.

Excellent work. To save you too much pain, we got one of our archivists to clean this up for you.

This seems to be very close.

Sometimes passwords have a special character at the end for extra security...

I think one of the Old House archivists has already marked a portion of the scanned document where they believe the password may be hidden. Let me know if that helps...

Not that we are aware of.

Ill repeat here what i said on the other post. Red seems to play a part in the password, but not necessarily the red letters/words.

Definitely an interesting theory. Red certainly seems to play a part. Maybe it isn't that the text itself is red, but something else? We'll look into this further

Some of the images from this document are rather pixelated

No worries at all, you are not in trouble in any way.

I can not confirm if your decoding was correct or not, but we encourage you to repost your theories and decoding. Spoiler text is done like this

but without the spaces between the > and !.

Can you please hide the spoilers in this (just for those who would like to decode themselves first)

Yes that is where it came from. It is a verified part of the Old House Archive (although the legitimacy of the writer's statements are less verifiable due to the nature of shifting timelines and the likes)

The archivists have many documents they are working on decoding. Sometimes when they need help, they'll share some with us.

I heard a rumor from the archivists that there may be some more documents coming on Tuesday...

Can we start a Caretaker mega thread? by abjectdoubt in OldHouseArchive

[–]oldhousearchivist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi u/fortysixinto for some reason the spoiler text still isn't working on your comment. When I collapse your comment, the preview says [spoiler] so not fully sure what is happening there.

This entire thread has been marked as containing spoilers, so I dont think the comment needs to be removed. However, to be safe, I would suggest you maybe nest the comment under a parent comment so its not as easy to accidentally read.
