We're going to be getting our first Training Missions for Season 2 sometime this week, so I thought it wouldn't hurt to prepare in advance! Use this thread to discuss Mission 4 of Season 2. Feel free to post theories, clues, hints, or anything else, as long as you DO NOT POST THE ANSWER. I will keep this thread updated as more gets posted.
I GOT IT!!! Here is a hint Spoiler read through the documentation, try other methods that GIMP does not possess features for.
I hate to say it but I am stuck on the last part. Can anyone please give me a clue? I am not sure how I am supposed to decrypt the image.
Spoiler: SPoiler i used a hex program and i found the images were created in gimp by a mac i dont know where this is going but i post this anyway
WOAH that was complicated Spoiler: Spoiler if gimp is not much help i was recomended pixlr lets begin the maths
didnt tested, but this may be useful for GIMP users https://www.ephotozine.com/article/how-to-use-layers-and-layer-modes-10659
Live Streams of Mission 4 are split into 2 parts due to crash: http://www.twitch.tv/jkkennedy/v/28240813 and http://www.twitch.tv/jkkennedy/v/28241259

Great mission, although I was stumped for a little while on the third part, even though I thought I had the answer. Note for any Brits I guess, Spoiler use American spelling? Didn't realise it would have an effect on the solution but it does apparently.
Your first image code-word seems to have decided to stay behind on your original server. I was going crazy last night trying to figure out why I wasn't finding it, watched the relevant part of the Twitch stream from @Aquilas this morning (thank you, Aquilas), saw the URL was different, downloaded the old one, and there it was. So basically: OLD: Codeword! blackwatchmen.s3.amazonaws.com/cms/uploads/EA6CD5C0-4297-48D1-4FBA-B11642039353.jpg NEW: No Codeword. fast.blackwatchmen.com/cms/uploads/EA6CD5C0-4297-48D1-4FBA-B11642039353.jpg I am not filling out the required Spoiler Requisition Form since watching that video was what made me realize that the image I was using was on a different server and that the problem was with the image, not with any kind of damage I suffered when listening to that audio file (proper precautions WERE taken), nor with any problems with my Occult Virus Scanning Software, which I have verified is up to date. I would like to file a request with Division 79 to receive a credit for "that hour of my life back," however. I would also like to request access to the Badger Works Lab in Hall 4A. When I tried using my keycard there, it didn't allow me to enter, it just gave me a mild electrical shock and burned an Enochian protection sigil into my retinas that stayed there for a few minutes, kind of like when you stare at a light bulb too long. It was really unpleasant...
