I know this is the solution, which is why I am asserting it. Prove it wrong. The challenge remains.

Some people have to have a TV documentary to have their solutions reviewed by experts, I have to spam this thread to 1,000 posts. Even though I found a big landmark that matches the ciphertext months ago and the code has been out there for awhile and been seen/reviewed.
I have just been waiting around for four months.

I know it doesn’t take four months to review that codebase. Is it the paper that makes it take so long? That is just extra. Only the code is needed. The first version was 77 lines, and not very complex.

Basically what I am saying is it is pretty easy to review (at least the code). I know that. And yet still it has been met with mostly silence from experts as we enter April, and I do not know why that is.

I guess they don’t take the findings seriously, not sure. Haven’t heard back.

And so I will get banned or this thread will reach 1,000 posts unless my work is finally looked at seriously, because I take it seriously (if you cannot tell).
I had been very friendly at first, I must say this. I have definitely started feeling worse due to all of the silence/censorship/bull shit I have received. And I am still waiting around.

What I found and did was very good and I think that will be known one day. For now I am dealing with Zodiac internet forums. Dead ends, but now I am protesting.

And yes the whole protesting thing is another part of this story as it has gone on too long waiting around when it isn’t that hard to review. Not four months hard.
I learned a lot on this place and it is a bummer. I really don’t like the post-solve experience and so I will just keep mentioning that as well.

I will like it when they scan the triangle I found, though.
Zodiac made that. I’ve known this since December.

Experts haven’t seemed to have figured that obvious thing out yet? Which is why I am the only expert here, apparently.
So if I have to review my own work, then I say good job, I solved it.

And I do have to be the one to review my own work, since others have chosen silence, even though they knew about this awhile ago, and didn’t provide feedback.
And that wasn’t helpful to me. That is a fact so I say it. Silence didn’t help. It cannot be interpreted. Is the work good, bad, right, wrong? I don’t know. Since I have had to wait four months, I am just saying it is confirmed (by me) solution.
Still, I am here and it will be checked out eventually. I am more interested in the radar scan than expert opinion. That is just the way I am. I was hoping expert opinion would make the scan happen faster…

After four months I am now on the record as being annoyed as hell by the silence, censorship, ect ect that I have faced. It isn’t right. So I say it.

I am fine if I don’t make any friends out of this, I just want that thing scanned. I do not care what others think about me, I know the work that I shared is good, especially the code, which is simple and all that matters.

And I want the experts to tell me their theories on the origin of the landmark. Watering hole?
