freebasic bit hunt (crypto game)

Post by owen »

im going to hide flash drives or cd's full of random bits (ones and zeros) all over the contiguous 48 states in north america. the files of bits are called one time pads.

location info will be released once each state has atleast one flash drive.

im a truck driver with lots of truck driver friends so i figure a couple months will do.

till then, lets talk about the game.

Do you mean the flash drives will contain data encrypted with one-time pads, or do you just plan to use them as one-time pads for the "game" itself? So they will all have the same one-time pad?

the flash drives will contain one time pads. im undecided on if they will all have the same or unique keys.

I have been thinking where to hide these flash drives.
Perhaps in plain sight?
