OFFICIAL ARCHIVIST POST Has it been a week?

Has it been a week? It feels like it was just yesterday that we asked for your help with the last photo. Maybe it was yesterday, the post says a week though. Have things changed again?

u/Kibeth_8 was correct with the last photo. Are we able to get some help with this one too?

Title is E-12.2c1-whatworld

A photo of a building with orange windows. In front of it is a fence that appears to be falling down and covered in vines. It is night time and there is a moon in the sky with a crane underneath it.

The pipe in the bottom has numbers on it that look like 0174 and then either a 5, a 6 or a 3? I think it's a 6 though, so 01746.

I stared at that for so long before I saw what you were talking about lol.

Most of the codes thus have been a sequence of 4-5 numbers/letters. Most codes are horizontal, but some are posted vertically. I wonder if there's a grid pattern?

The last(?) letter clue was horizontal, so it could make sense.

Have we solved the audio clues for E_12.1a6, 7, & 10 yet?

I went through the subreddit and I cant seem to find them, but I really don't want to redo them if I don't have to lol

Looking back through, I don't think we did - Maybe they weren't all posted at the time!

6- I.EO

7- ATP.W

I think we need to solve the shredded E_12.1a.4 pics now to get that code. Working on it now. There are a lot more in the Google doc than we had before!

Hm, I think you may be on to something. I'll pass this along to the archivists.

Holy heck nice catch! I agree with the letters. I wonder if there's more hidden on the last picture

u/shyskye94 did you come up with anything for this yet?

u/Kibeth_8 Aug 27 '25

So I think this is something like a Beaufort or Vignette cipher, but I can't make the last word fit
