Blog Description



This blog is a personal examination of the "Pizza Code Mystery" ARG created by Christopher Horn for the Black Mesa video game.
I will attempt to update this blog on a regular basis, for as long as the ARG is in existence and folks are willing to attempt to solve it.
This will not be a complete overview of the clues and such associated with the ARG--you can find a complete, up-to-date version of that material here.

Analysis of IRC Code / Small Update

I've updated the Cipher Formats page to include the new IRC code and have added a new poll to the right-hand side toolbar.

In regard to the code, I've done an analysis in my cryptology tool--the top ten choices are as follows, listed in order from most similar to least similar:


Running Key...........0
Digrafid................1
Vig Slidefair...........2
Nicodemus.............3
Trifid...................3
Gronsfeld..............3
Vigenere...............4
Quagmire2.............4
Quagmire3.............4
Portax..................4




Of course, it's entirely possible that this analysis is inaccurate if the code is actually composed of two ciphers rather than just one.
