As I learn more, and dig deeper, I am continually surprised by how many things were overlooked regarding Z32, especially given all of the explicit hints. I will be glad to be the one to point some of these things out, as people will be quite surprised they didn’t see them, even thought they were sitting right there this entire time.

The Phillips 66 map was not properly analyzed in detail, specifically the high res scan. Not going to bother to elaborate here, but yeah. It leads to more information worth including in my work. And so I am glad I found more before releasing version 3.

It will slow down the release of version 3, but only make it better. I had been using Google Earth Pro with the Phillips 66 map overlaid which turned out to be very useful. Zodiac had added a few other little hidden things on the map. They are subtle, but there and verifiable by anyone with eyes and a brain. And they also are favorable towards my proposed solution being correct, as well. That is just how it worked out.
And so I will say it again, even more confidently now:
IN THREE AND THREE EIGHTHS RADIANS TEN is the personally confirmed solution for the Z32 cipher, and no expert has falsified the work or raised meaningful objections (beyond saying the triangle would require heavy machinery to construct, which would be impractical for the Zodiac).
The debunk attempts have all been pretty weak in around 4 and a half months. Just being honest about that. The number one response is silence, and then the rest are small amount of people that have provided positive feedback/interest.

Oh my goodness.
If only the Zodiac forum users knew what I just found.
They don’t get to know, lol. What a night.

Oh man, you natural origin theorists are doomed here. I found more. So much more.
I cracked this code back in December and experts didn’t say a word really.

I am not sharing any further information on Zodiac forums it will only be in my paper. I solved this in December 2025.

The bad debunk attempts are going to age very, very poorly @shaqmeister
I will say no further. You were on the wrong side of this one.

Same for the other forum admin. He isn’t going to look good after version 3. He censored my work early on.

Another day, I am still here.
We are going on around four and a half months of lack engagement from many experts with this landmark/work. It does seem to be the case that they do not take it seriously, although the silence remains difficult to interpret.
But I am just documenting the saga day by day, because for me it has been a long time waiting around by now.

Lack of engagement from experts led to energy draining forum wars where I must defend the work against natural origin theorists, that are very dedicated to that position. To me it is the equivalent of a flat Earther.
The experts kind of just sit in the background and don’t say much. It is quite unfortunate, and makes the cipher more difficult.
I think a reasonable timeframe for proper review would be 3 months. I think the method is actually pretty simple overall. It takes some time to make sure the data is correct and whatnot, but this doesn’t take four and a half months to review, for any expert.
I know this because some have been able to read the paper/code and write back within a few days.

So yeah, just documenting the censorship + wall of silence over the past four and a half months and I will keep doing that, while also continuing the work, which increased in difficult due to censorship + silence. Now I would rate Z32 as one of the most difficult ciphers of all time, even though it is actually fairly simple due to all of the explicit instructions it came with.

Going on four and a half months is an unreasonable timeframe to receive engagement with this landmark I found from experts. And so I am just expressing that publicly. Will add that is just my opinion, because it is.

And so if it is found that I was right this whole time the thread shows the saga it has taken to break through the wall. The point of spamming my thread every day is to raise awareness. It is my thread so I will express things from my perspective. I’ve been waiting around for this thing to be checked out and still am. It actually isn’t very fun but I can manage. But if it turns out to be verified then it isn’t cool.

The phrasing I am using now is personally confirmed solution because I’ve been waiting around for months really. In the first few days I was very excited so I just presented it as “the solution”. Then I realized people don’t like that, so it became the “unconfirmed, proposed solution”. Now after four months I am going with personally confirmed solution.
Anyways, IN THREE AND THREE EIGHTHS RADIANS TEN is the personally confirmed solution to the Mount Diablo code.
For the record, it was cracked in December 2025 by elite coder David Stampher using the Python programming language and a constraint satisfaction framework. It has stunned experts into silence ever since.

By raising awareness it increases the probability of the landmark being scanned, verifying my personally confirmed solution. This should be obvious.
