It is imperative that we get this info. Capt Neopill

Looks like hexidecimal.

I know...but it is an odd number of digits and all my attempts thus far have only produced gibberish...except for one. I shifted the bits, reversed them, then used a base64 decryption algorithm and I came up with part of the message legable, it read EDMONT. The only reason I felt this was significant was because of Sarah Edmontons. I've got some other ideas (because when I get these things I can't sleep or think of anything else...I love encryption), and will be working on it until another EPN algorithm is cracked. This would be my 3rd one of theirs to fall under my "uber-leet skillz" (as MindsweeperX puts it) .

What are the numbers in each line? Could be coordinates. X Y Z Eh? I'm to busy right now to figure them out.

Oh yeah.. and Tom Ned is also a correct answer when it comes to algorithms. Or Met Dom.

Yeah, I'm currently trying different methods of changing the numbers around to create a workable arrangement. Luckily, in hexadecimal, there are only 8 possible rotations before they begin repeating themselves...narrowing the possible arrangement chances to 2888 combinations. Hurray! hehe

Ok...I have gotten word from a few others stating that there is an unknown RSI appearing sporatically in Moriah with a very similar encrypted hash in his RSI details. I have not seen a screenshot of this RSI yet, but I was given the hash by a contact to help in decyphering. It follows as below....
Unknown RSI's Details: 081FB9311999D3C093A
Ok...from yesterday, we have the details of the Kid's RSI: 081FB9311000D3C093A
As you can see, there is only three digits in this message that are different from the Kid's details....I am not sure of it's importance yet. I'll continue my analysis...

I got nowhere with this. has anyone succeeded? here is my only observation Morpheus has 8 letters but they cannot be matched ot the two 8 letter sections.
RSI has three letter but does not match either
perhaps one must remove the zeros...and so it goes...

I'm totally lost on this one. Not a puzzle type I'm strong at. Give me logic problems and I'm in like Flynn. Give me encrypted stuff and I'm lost. lol.

here's the path I am going in....since there are two messages now, I am working on combining the two and taking each letter individually and shifting them and comparing them in every possible combination to the others to create a letter. (in cyptography circles, this is called a collision *educational huh *). If I find a letter hit, then I apply the same shift to all the other letters and try to see if it cracks significantly. Sound complicated? Believe me, it's a pain in the ass...harder than cracking MD5 encryption. There are ways of making this process easier, but it involves some programming....from the last time I tried coding, I'm a little fearful to try and make another program. If this was a publicly known algorithm, it would be alot easier because the Rainbow Tables would be laying around all over the place (*educational: rainbow tables are a database of possible collisions that have already been discovered to make it easier for comparison.), but alas...*throws notebook* grrr....

My understanding of encryption is admittedly limited, but I'm gonna throw this out. Is it possible that these are not actually encrypted text but encryption keys for something else?

Interesting idea.

That has been considered....both messages are of similar length and are very similar in context (just 3 digits are different), but the length has been compared to most key hashes I have already in rainbow table databases to no avail. But it is still possible, maybe on an encryption that is very rarely used, but if this postulate is correct....there is a message floating around. Alright you peoples who troll the DN1 forums, find me a message
