Don't know if you're still stuck, but if you don't mind me asking Spoiler How did you solve mission 2, the one with pi in the middle of the circle? The solution to this one should be the same
Spoiler I did not use PI to solve part 2 - which is now probably why I don't see how to solve part 3. In part 2 I focused only on -every- roman number...
Hi all, I would like some help on 3.2. What I've tried so far: Spoiler I've e-mailed Grisha about operation D009369, asking him about his former chief, whick could be one of the following: Nikolai Kovalyov Vladimir Putin Nikolai Patrushev But since each e-mail got the same result I'm guessing it's none of them. I've been sending him the follwong e-mails: "Regarding operation D009369. I'd like to know about 'insert name here'" but the answer is always the same. What am I missing/doing wrong? Thanks!
Spoiler I could be remembering wrong, but weren't all the numbers around the circle for part 2 in roman numerals? If you focused "only on the roman numerals" wouldn't that mean all of them anyway? In any case, yes, it is related to euler's number. I'm not sure how to go much further without giving it away. I guess, don't think of the roman numerals as numbers, think of them as indexes. If you're still having trouble, I guess send a PM? Is that how things work here? I'm still new to the forums

We also have good operation security, so make sure the agent knows you are on the level - they probably need to hear a code word. Look into our agent's pasts. What experience do they have?

It doesn't matter what I write to grisha, I always get the: go bug someone else reply, I've tried asking about: Spoiler operation D009369 and Federal Security Service/Nikolai Patrushev, what am I doing wrong here? As for now I'm stuck 3.2
@Loki Martin Farbaute Odds are you have the right organization, but are not being specific enough. If you were in the US Military, and someone asked who your supervisor was, you wouldn't name the secretary of defense. You'd probably name someone a bit more junior
Can anyone help me with mission 3.3 in Alone in the dark web- Im struggling with the location for the Dahmer clue and linking it to the other clue i know what the link between the exe files is but can't pinpoint the links to locations
I notice you posted this 15 or so days ago now, so I don't know if you're still looking for help, but if you are Spoiler You're generally not stamped with labels at birth. They all started somewhere
I believe there is actually an error in the location for needed for this mission, possibly due to misreading the related info on the wiki page.
I found the right digits for 3.2, but for some reason I can not get them to work. Edit: Apparently I can't tell the difference between a g and a 9.
Seconding this. I don't want to get into the details because that would unavoidably involve giving away the answer, but I strongly encourage the relevant authorities to double-check this one.
