They have been flooded by many subjectively solutions over the years, such as your own…

They certainly haven’t been bothered by anything sent by me, that’s for sure.

So you didn’t submit this one?

You got part of the plaintext right.  There is an EIGHT(HS) in there.

IN THREE AND THREE EIGHTHS RADIANS TEN.  Like an eighth of an inch, on a standard ruler, you know.

If you only use eighths in the lexicon, the most plausible, every single survivor ends with RADIANSTEN.  That is due to the ciphers internal structure, not my subjective beliefs.  It is reproducible/testable.

Still awaiting the experts however.  It has been a slow process.

I am sure these internal cipher structural properties can also be attributed to the cows, or whatever.

Internet forums.

Of course not. What is this, the real world, or an episode of Scooby Doo?

It is the real world, where the big triangle landmark can be found, as we see in objective aerial photography evidence, dating back decades.

Also thank you for not submitting that.  I have seen others point to peoples houses, graveyards, random farms, ect.  I like where mine lands.

I am sure all of the BS Z32 solutions of the past, leading to stupid places, are part of why this is slowed down.  And might even be the reason it never gets looked at.  I haven’t ruled out that possibility, but I still think it will be.  Because it is cheap and easy, and worth it.  I have already said why, many times.

Even @DMW on these very forums, years ago, falsely claimed IN THREE AND THREE EIGHTHS RADIANS TEN leads to ALA house.

Nope, it lands by the triangle landmark I found.  You were wrong @DMW

As no one pointed out your wrongness @DMW, which itself is a questionable oversight, I wonder about the legitimacy of this place for receiving proper review on proposed Zodiac cipher solutions.  I’m not loving it.  The forum admin at the other place clearly lacked the capability to properly review the code and paper.  He had a month and a half to debunk it if he wanted too.  Didn’t happen.  He was always welcome to join in, he stayed quiet.

Instead he went the petty banning route, probably thinking if he just censors it, it goes away. But I am still here.  And I will branch out with it.  I have barely tried to share it really.  Two forums (one under authoritarian control, one dormant), Hacker News (8 upvotes, 0 comments), some emails, and a subreddit that I doubt would provide any useful feedback.  It would just be more of the cow/natural origin theory.

It was a detour in the journey, which continues.  

The internet forum stuff doubles the difficulty of the cipher which only makes it more interesting to me.

And, of course, it’s interesting to break down just exactly where your and DMW’s proposed locations differ, which is, in reality, only in the one key aspect, as the cipher solutions themselves are identical, DMW’s being from 7 years ago.

To make the comparison, all we need to do – as I had done myself recently – is to take your code and strip out the requirement of having to convert map coordinates into lat./long. before applying boundary testing. When you make this one modification and ensure the boundary checking is done on the map also, your code generates DMW’s interpreted location. So you could argue that the code model you offered, being simplified by one step which it is not indicated anywhere in the author’s instructions that we should apply – nor have you supported its inclusion anywhere in your pre-research write-up – that your code supports, in this manner, DMW’s solution, slightly better than it does yours.

Maybe that’s why LE is not interested, thinking “We’ve reviewed this before, only now we’ve got this extra additional nonsense.”

Keep defending him pointing to a suspects house with the correct plaintext.

His method was guesswork.  Mine tested 2 million alternatives and modeled the problem exactly as Zodiac instructed.

DMW did not find the triangle by LHR, I did.

@DMW pointed to the wrong place confidently, to fit a narrative, and it wasn’t corrected.  This only muddys the water.  I don’t like the way he approached Z32.  I like the way I approached Z32.  With code that tested 2 million alternatives.  That isn’t guesswork.  I found a big landmark that matches the ciphertext by the decoded coordinates.  Facts.
