For those who would like some help with that code, I hear most of it is unrelated. But I know nothing of breaking codes so no idea if true or not

Has anyone else got anywhere with this? There's a few smart guys here so I'm guessing someone must have made progress. Anyone figured out what the code is in the image or found the other chunk of data?

I've been having a go at it this weekend and have managed to complete the first task, but it took me a good few hours!

I've attached the image in case the site goes after the timer expires.

The next bit will take me more time I think... I don't I'll get it done before the timer runs out but it's a good challenge

Here's the (more obvious) code from the image for the first part:

It's not true, whoever told you that clearly doesn't know what they're looking at
