I meant to say personally confirmed solution. It is personally confirmed by David Stampher.
IN THREE AND THREE EIGHTHS RADIANS TEN is the solution to the Z32 cipher, aka THE MOUNT DIABLO CODE.
The diabolical code was cracked by expert video gamer David Stampher in December 2025 after 55 years. Hooray.

I don’t even care about dumb people, I just care that I cracked the Mount Diablo code.

Dear David Stampher,
We are happy to have received your submission, Geospatial Constraint Satisfaction in the Zodiac Z32 Cipher, which is now posted on SSRN.

After two months of review they finally approved it.

Now that my work has been approved by SSRN, which reviewed it for almost two months, that puts @shaqmeister to sleep.
Their typical review time is 3 days.
Finally my work will be seen by serious individuals, not forum users. It was hard to make that happen. There was great resistance but I am sure the landmark was why it was approved.
SSRN used to be looser but due to the lengthy review process I am sure it was looked over, since it points to a location.

This approval is probably the greatest thing to happen as I had been waiting for it for awhile. The long review time had me worried.
Either way it will reach a broader audience now, of capable individuals.

While I have mentioned my name a lot, it is more to make sure grifters don’t try to say they found it (since it was censored elsewhere). I don’t want them to try to make money off of it. So I bought the domain to make sure they can’t do that and timestamped my papers. But I actually just wanted to solve the code and help move the case forward if I led somewhere interesting, and I have done that successfully.

Honestly the findings are massive for multiple reasons beyond the cipher itself, such as the usage of the CSP framework. My usage of a co-pilot is also historical and notable. I say it proudly, and own it fully. It is a part of the story, and I love that. I was the captain of the ship, and I found the triangle.

I’ve become more protective of it since it was treated weirdly when I knew it was big. I just know grifters see dollar signs but I won’t let a little forum resistance throw me off the trail.

It is pretty logical that if everyone has a co-pilot, which they do, then someone else could have done the same thing, years ago. And that is very true. But they didn’t. I did it in late 2025.
I win the game. @shaqmeister can cry about it if he wants.

Anyways your human brain was never going to solve Z32, sorry @shaqmeister. I did it for you with my co-pilot. Now you can sit on the sidelines while we both wait for the triangle to be scanned.

Keep telling yourself the triangle is natural in origin @shaqmeister
Great debunk buddy
