The problem with this cipher is the experts hyped up the “impossibility”, because they couldn’t solve it themselves.  This discourages others from trying, and if someone does pull it off, their proposal will be met with 11 out of 10 skepticism.  This is exactly what happened in my case, and I am not super happy about it.

They created an environment where a good solution will be rejected due to the pre-conceived notion that it is too short to solve.  And that is what I am not dealing with, and exactly what my paper was designed to address.

The experts say, “unicity distance” and shrug their shoulders aparently.  It is very myopic.  

But then again it’s hard to say, as I have been met with silence, despite raising hell on these forums now.

Did I give up?  Nope.  Been here every day since I joined.  Same for the other forums, I was there every day.  I’ve been working on this cipher more every day since I shared my personally confirmed solution.

It took me four months to personally confirm it, and this was purely due to expert lag.

Basically I got tired of waiting around about it.  Everyone has their limit on that.  At a certain point you assume they couldn’t falsify the work and just choose to not acknowledge that (for whatever reason).  That information would be very useful feedback for me.  It never came.  This creates confusion, as I have found the physical landmark we see in my profile picture.

While I’ve calmed down about it somewhat, I will keep pushing forward no matter what.  

I feel very good about version 3 of my whitepaper, the Javascript version of my solver that will be hosted on INTHREEANDTHREEEIGHTHSRADIANSTEN.com, and I will put some thought and care into my Youtube videos that will hopefully finally raise awareness.

This work has been roadblocked/ignored for four months.  I have spammed this thread attempting to get experts to prove the work wrong.  I did present clear, objective falsification criteria.  I have seen multiple subjective debunks during my time on Zodiac internet forums, and those just do not falsify the work.

Jarl is still welcome to falsify the work.  Many of the experts have been too vague with their feedback/engagement for my tastes, and so I am being more direct with what I am asking for now.

He has no obligation to do so and I do not expect this to occur.  My problem is the work is usually discredited for illegitimate reasons.  “I just don’t think that is the right plaintext”, type of thing.

Am not the saying he would have done that, but so far it has been (from experts).

1. Silence

2. Vague, quasi-positive response with no mention of anything wrong, but some subjective objection tossed in (he would need heavy machinery to make the triangle).

3. Positive response, but then silence.

And this is the type of feedback I have received in the past four months.

I think some of the positive response + silence people might still be taking a look, but it hard to say.

Basically my only option left is to do a Youtube series.  And I am now realizing that is what I have done from the very beginning.

But the crappy situation I have endured as far as feedback goes has only given me fuel to make my Youtube videos and the rest of my work even better.  If it was supposed to make me give up, it did not do that.

I am transforming the pissed off energy into something good.  And that is the right thing to do.

Actually I take that back.  Youtube isn’t the only way.  Medium article is an option, as is doing a better job at sending version 3 of my whitepaper to even more experts, journalists, ect.  I just need to expand my horizons and tighten my messaging, that is all.

Too the roadblockers, there is only one that get’s called out when the triangle I found is scanned, and they know who they are, and they know it is justified.  You increased my workload and censored a finding that could very well be quite important related to this case.  And that does get called out.

The others just went silent, that isn’t the same thing as pointless censorship of good work that was worthy of engagement.  I don’t like it but it isn’t in the same league.  I probably could have kept waiting around patiently, had I not also been censored while waiting around.

And to the admins/mods, while you have been quiet I thank you for at least not censoring my thread.  I will give credit where it is due.

I believe everything I have said is true, much of which is verifiable.  And so at least I am not a liar.  

I told someone f you.  I almost never do that, but it was an honest expression.  Tired of hearing about natural origin four months in.  At this point it just makes me roll my eyes.  It distracts from everything else.

No one can say that @coder1987 didn’t keep grinding away.

I showed up for work everyday fighting for the truth.

David Stampher solved Z32 in December 2025, and found the triangle landmark  by Lake Herman Road, solving the cipher after 55 years using modern computational techniques.

Run the code:  https://github.com/dstampher/zodiac-z32-cipher

When version 3 is done….soon….it will be shared here.  Even if there almost 0 traffic.  Still, it shows that I stuck around and didn’t run away.  

Experts are still welcome to objectively falsify the work.  If you can do this and it isn’t based on vibes, I am very interested in that.  You’d be the first one since December, and if done legitimately I would have no choice but to accept it.  There are good reasons I have to believe this isn’t going to be happening, but I always mention I have been wrong before.  Still, I am not typically this confident.  There is just enough highly suggestive evidence for me to be.  That is what I am standing on, not just my feelings.  My feelings are derived from the evidence, hope this makes sense.

But we all know I (David Stampher) found the triangle landmark in December 2025, and how that changes the equation on my personally confirmed solution.  It isn’t just the plaintext by itself.  But on that topic, the plaintext is great imo.
