I am 27 posts away from the epic 1337 post count, a badge of honor.

I had planned to step back but being so close to both version 3 and 1337 post count, AND seeing people still talk about the city of Hercules, as if it has anything to do with the Z32 cipher, I will continue to bump as needed to ensure the truth is easily accessible at the top of the heap.

Version 3 took forever because the research expanded more than I expected. Almost none of which will be included, but some of it will be because it is factual and relevant. The rest was dead ends, or paths that required even more research. The dead ends were time consuming, but were necessary and part of the process.

While people bickered about natural origin and watering holes on the forums, I was continuing the research while awaiting the scan on the triangle landmark David Stampher discovered in December 2025 using modern computational techniques.
Version 2 is “ok” but rushed. There are some tiny corrections to be made, but it is a pre-print (like a draft). No corrections regarding quantitative data, but rather referring to the 13th hole card as a “cartographic communication”. It was just a communication, and one that is only suspected, not confirmed, to be from Zodiac (yes I think it was). Version 2 was never the final version. Even 3 might not be the final version.
That would be 4, if they scan the triangle and find something, I will need to include that in my work.
Have a nice day,

May my glorious Python code help move this case forward.
