Need help with this challenge!!! Found the signal but don't have any ideas what to do with them. I tried a lot but I think i'm on the wrong way. Maybe someone could leave me a PM for a little help. :cry:

I just made it, but there are too many possibilities.
Could be everything that is different to the original like line breaks, dots, missing parts etc.

I think this one will kill me when i ever find out what the solution is.

I got the numbers of the chapters. The dots and the linebreaks. But no idea :D.

Please just a yes or no via pm if im right with the idea that the dots are the right way :D

This one is fairly difficult. All I can say is you are looking to obtain a string of binary values, how you obtain them is up to you to find...

What you need might not be immediately visible. I just want to 'highlight' that in order to give you a hint....

Still searching...

Ok, used kdiff3 to find some minor changes from the text at lawsonomy.org (extra linebreaks, spaces, and punctuation). Having trouble making sense of them. I've tried counting the number of words and/or characters before and after the linebreaks, as well as the number of lines between changes. So far I'm unable to pick up anything in particular. Any hints on how to proceed from here (via PM if necessary) would be appreciated.

The vi hint is quite good. Using it properly can really highlight the signal.

One other hint -- you need not concern yourself with the original lawsonomy text.
