You may regret saying that, TOSG
How right you are.
Unfortunately, I BLASTed all of those, and didn't get anything that looked even remotely promising. Guess it's back to the d ... |

I don't quite see how BLAST is going to do us any good here.
Elaborate on your idea, perhaps, phipunk?
It might be that this is a sequence from a real genome; or perhaps most of it is from a gen ... |

Didn't phipunk say something like "unless it's six bits and they need to be padded with... no let's not go into that."
Oops. Plagiarize, plagiarize, let no one else's work evade your ey ... |

Yet another way to generate random-looking text...
I tried seeing if we can treat each three-color block as a six-bit value. This means picking a mapping from {b,g,r,y} into {00,01,10,11} (e.g. b= ... |

It's a 30x10 grid of four colors
Ok had to go back to the original statement to see where I went wrong...
30x10x2 = (2x15)x(2x5)x2 = 2x2x2x(15x5) = ... *explodes*

iMouse! Whatsup man...Facility J appears to be up. As does MA and KM, but there's not much puzzling to be done over there.
I tried with 16 of those and out comes pure garbage. As phipunk said, text ... |

Here's a transcript:
You are a more patient man than I am... We could try eliminating the obvious, and trying each possible mapping of {b,g,r,y} into {00,01,10,11} and running them through the binar ... |

Hmmm, very interesting!
I'm not sure what to make of it - do we think that there's an associated puzzle?
Either way, I'm happy to see that FacilityJ is back!
