Is there any connection between who received what codes? We're seeing a lot of Charlies but that could just be a coincidence. The first code will probably go out in the next 24 hours and then possibly the rest will go out as emails over a short period of time. 96 hours could be the limit of time we have to unlock everything from this first set of encoded messages.
I think they're going to make phone calls to orange+ agents, that would be logical considering "total system failure" that was mentioned in the e-mail. Signals could as well be sent in the Morse code format for all we know.
Agents of the same signal level are receiving the same link Alpha: https://cryptobin.org/c4y9d5q5 Beta: https://cryptobin.org/e3o6g6v5 Charlie: https://cryptobin.org/75y1w7f5 Delta: https://cryptobin.org/w1u947y5 Echo: https://cryptobin.org/44v4i8t5 Edit: Anyone else finding it weird that the names are a cross between Greek letters and NATO? (http://www.alphabravocharlie.info/alphabet.php) Alpha (Both) Beta (Greek) Charlie (NATO) Delta (Both) Echo (NATO)
Alpha here, with the same link. I'm on holiday with limited Internet access and won't be able to participate much.
I checked my emails, received both Alpha and Delta. I think due to my history of the pre-kickstarter campaign, kickstarter, an agent namechange, etc (its all so confusing). I received notices to both agent names/addresses. The subscription preferences page shows one of the names has a game code, the other doesn't. It may be I have a double identity in the system, I hope I'm not causing a system fault, or that I have to do double the work Situation room is new, too
I agree with making plans incase of system failure. Our own IRC channel on Freenode would suffice I guess? I also got the Alpha e-mail.
I too have been sent a Charlie warning. This is certainly interesting. EDIT: I just want to let people know of our idea for the Season 2 trailer and possible Live Event recap videos (posted in Fan Missions) If this turns out to be a live event, it would be great if people could record some short videos or take photos so we can use them for these!

It looks like it's simply a wrapper that CryptoBin uses. They decrypt the message into ASCII from Base 64 then parse the remaining string. The message is then essentially stored in a HashMap (or dictionary) of Key : Value pairs. Spoiler Key: iv (Initialization Vector) Value: ZZ2HsqCMI4gFH9y8YNchjg== Key: v (version?)

EDIT: On an unrelated note, the situation room has an M made out of butterflies on it. Morpho Medical could be hacking us.
