    5.2.3

    Super serious spoiler
    there's something odd about the file names that does not match previous naming conventions

    Could use some assistance on 6.2.3, been staring at it for hours making no progress.

    Do you know how to encode messages using the Bible? Of course here you have to use the texts which were already given to you

    I am at stage 7 now. A nudge would be appreciated - where to begin?
    It seems to be kind of a game, but "Battleships" or "Tic Tac Toe" do not seem to fit. "Connect Four" played only with a 5x5 roster could work, but as the x's and o's do not alternate I can't see which player is playing which and if the "------" are rounds I have to figure out

    that depends, there are several methods of encoding discovered by using the bible

    Well, which one could be utilized by using the infos given in the document?

    Unless it's a type of cipher i don't know about, none of the ones i do know of fit. Book cipher doesn't work since we lack the proper amount of documentation to make anything work as chapters, the standard bible cipher doesn't work because again we lack enough documents to create a key using that method. So unless i'm missing something I'm still at a loss

    You already have all pieces of info, you're just looking too close.

    6.2.3

    So assuming it's a book cipher but using the documents we have. I've tried saying the first digit was the document - nope doesn't work, not enough documents.

    Tried saying it was the paragraph - ok that works, we have 6 groupings of stuff. Wait that doesn't work, not enough space to break down so that the last digit is a word. because if you go from clump to sentence (wait can't be sentence some clumps only have 1) word? nope because then you have 2 more digits to deal with...

    Which suggests I'm looking to hard but based on the nudges I'm not sure how...

    You have the right approach but you are starting too low, try to see the bigger picture. What else do we have 6 from at this point?

    took some work but i managed to get there, the last part felt kinda like guessing once i researched what i had

    Thank you! I had actually thought about this and was talked out of it.

    Looking for a bit more
    I have the sentence. I have the source. I have also typed some 200+ attempts in for the password. If there's some logic (I was thinking about weapon but that didn't lead anywhere) I'd love some

    You have the sentence. Where did it take you?

    Looking for a nudge on 7.

    I think we've identified the game, but unsure where to go from there.

    Re: 5.2.3, I wanted to check if I'm barking up the wrong tree.

    I've tried analyzing the sentences with misspelled words as binary strings, then getting the ASCII for that; it resolves as "prmpHeby", which I can't manage to interpret as a scramble, and I'd be at a loss for finding a cipher key. BASE64 interpretation hasn't found anything on Pastebin, Clyp, or YouTube. I'm pretty much certain that I'm overthinking this.

    Thanks in advance for any assistance!

    You're on the right track with conversion, but incorrect results can lead you astray.
