[code:1:11212d9959] .. .... .......get this....invading the GEM

thats right.....cut ... man down....

so....I pro....

I will be the RIA ..... o. sta.. if you will and take command of direct strategy while taking input from all of you loyal ...bers still remaning

................................................................

jordaxia may have the navy

who wants the air force...who wants armour....who wants special forces...lets get this orgazied.[/code:1:11212d9959]

"Our lads at coding picked this up about 3 hours ago, it's taken us this long to get this information through to you sir's"
The emperor and the Prime miniter where sitting at the heavy oak table.

"And when do you expect this to happen?"
"I can't say"
"then begin the mobalisation of every last man able to fight"
"Every last man?"
"Every last man, pilot & tankist, this is the greatest threat we have ever faced"

The General martched out quickly and began the order of Mass mobalisation

Ok. Here is a little proof of how strong 128 bit encryption is
Question:
What is the difference between 128-bit and 40-bit encryption?

Answer:

The main difference is that 128-bit encryption provides a significantly greater amount of cryptographic protection than 40-bit encryption. With the increasing computing power of potential criminals, it is becoming more necessary to employ larger keys, as evidenced by a recent study by several leading cryptographers.

In terms of what the numbers represent, "128" and "40" bit encryption refer to the size of the key used to encrypt the message. Roughly speaking, 128-bit encryption is 309,485,009,821,345,068,724,781,056 times stronger than 40-bit encryption


That means, even if 40 bit encryption isn't that strong, 128 bit is that much harder. Do you realise how impossible to break that encryption is.

It would take the combined processing power of every computer in the world 12 billion years to break the code. The proof is on the internet. Go look. How did you break it upon recieval?

Not exactly, it would take an array of 4 Cray supercomputers roughly two hours to churn through that much data. (With a computer that can do several trillion calculations per nanosecond like the latest Crays can do, very few codes are unbreakable.)

Ohh yeah, #TAG#.

Yeah, in my zeal to pick holes in everything, I forgot the info wasn't exactly up-to-date. Very few people have 4 crays to break the code however. Omitting crays, it would take an excessively long time. Long enough for the U.S govt. to outlaw 128 bit coding until a while ago.
(a year or 2?)
Whatever, it's difficult to crack.
Anyway, you can never find out what I say in secret I.C's and private forums without declaring war on me, because there are only 2 copies of the message in the world. One is in the messengers head, the other is on the fire. If you beat the code out of the messenger, given he is one of my men, it is a declaration of war against me, if you hear the message, you have bugged the area in which it was recieved, which RIA nations also percieve as a declaration of war.

Well you are going to invade me i discussed it with GF, so i thought it would have some sort of pre-warning, for the good of the RP of course

sorry it's a bit poor, i don't have any fancy photoshop, but i'm sure AFRP has :P

black blocks are major cities
yellow blocks are Military bases#

and someone fix this for me it's being screwy
