You are definitely on the right track. I'm not sure if it matters, but I used x.9999999 and x.0000000, and I got similar results using either base8 or base37 on the first digit. I also used the "decimal" functions in Python, rather than floating the decimals. I'm not sure what that translates to in C++.
But now it seems "it's really evident [I'm] just wasting people's time", so this time, I'll just stay gone. It's been a pleasure helping those who have actually put in a little effort.
Don't go yet! At least give me one more clue!
Seems like Wolfe on hashkiller was probably faking his cracks of the 5268AC so you are the only person that has the answer to the 5268ac.
Yeah the flagging x.9999 was just the example. The statement above it implies it needs to be 7 digits long. Just didn't feel like typing all those 9's (and 0's)
