You previously had to answer a question to get the pack. Iroffer calls it a "riddle" but it's a simple question on cryptography. The question was this:
An affine cipher using the encoding function f(x) = 3x + 1 (mod 1000) was used to encipher the answer to the riddle for this release. The answer to the riddle uses an alphabet consisting of 27 letters; A,B,..,Z,b where b stands for a space between words. The letters are numbered from 0 to 26 (0 = A, 26 = b). The size of blocks is 2.
The enciphered blocks are:
In order to find the plain text, you will have to decipher these back into digraphs and convert them into letters. The answer consists of two words, all capital letters.
The general method of solving the problem is explained here. http://zabadab.eu/stuff/howto.txt -- it is not the answer though. You can now find the worked solution to the problem at http://zabadab.eu/stuff/uriddle.txt

That riddle was pretty cool, but maybe you should make it the password next time ;)

this is stupid. every other scanslation group just posts rapidshare links with a text saying "enjoy the release".

puyo: we're not like every other scanlation group. Besides that, the problem is really simple and everyone who's passed high school should have no problem with it.
Think of it as a check to see whether you're underage. :)

No ofence but this is retarded, the only thing you gain with this is annoying people and that many people will just skip this release, or just ask for the answer.
Not everyone is native english speaker you know, and tech language is rarely teach unless you specialise in that area
Personally i have a good english level but its hard to grasp it

Barely anyone I've talked to is annoyed though. :/ Most people enjoyed the challenge, and I'll gladly help anyone who has problems solving it as long as they're not an ass about it.
Even people without any knowledge in maths or cryptography picked it up pretty quickly...
The language of mathematics is universal anyway. If you can't understand the writing, you can still understand the equations. :x
I'll let it run a few more days, then I'll post the worked solution and remove the riddle from the pack. :)

I must say I have no idea what that (mod 1000) means and I recently entered university in a program with lots of math. What is considered high-school level of math differs from country to country.
Also, this doijin already has a translation. I downloaded it over a year ago from Hentai From Hell. No idea who translated it tough, since there is no credits-page or watermark.

Someone shared the answer and ruined the fun for everyone, so now the pack is freely downloadable.
About 80 people managed to get it right during the time it was up. A worked solution is now available.

Whats with the increase in faggotry around here lately? I mean the site basicly died for ages while the owners continued begging for money. Now its back and they are taking stupidity to a whole new level.
Its bad enough that no mediafire or rapidshare links are provided, but doing that to try and get people to pay for somthing thats free is really sad.
Considering how quickly the stuff gets reuploaded and the poor quality of the work, who in their right mind would pay?

Man you don't just need a revival you need a refoundation.
Don't kill the memories of better times, just let it go.

And you need to go and fuck yourself, Zwolf. Same with you, Anon. :D
You're just angry you couldn't solve the question. Let it out somewhere else, not on our blog. <3
Noone's forcing you to download our releases. If you don't like our stuff, why are you visiting and posting shitty comments nobody wants to read?
Who's forcing you to pay, btw? Get on IRC and download it. Do you really think I added a cryptography challenge to make people pay? :D I did it because I could; I don't even get any of the money people give to Numbus...
Also, poor quality? Come again? Shit is provided to you for free; you don't have any right to bitch. Go on, do it better.

I, for one, am happy for the release. Alot of doujins I've found have always been scanlated crappy until I found DW. DW has good solid releases with good quality. Thanks Zabadab for the release, and to DW for continuing to work on it.
Also for people complaining about the donations, DW isn't the only site Numbus has on his server. Including the forum which provides constant free hentai varying from pictures to games to videos and beyond, there's other sites as well. So stop bitchin about it, its free, its not like Numbus is forcing people to donate. Everything is still FREE, F-R-E-E!

Thanks for the release =)
Just to chime in on this little "argument" going on, I have always loved DW releases. They're translated well and are extremely high quality scans.
I also thought the cryptography puzzle was fun. I went ahead and did it anyway just as an exercise =).
Thanks again!

I normally don't like going on IRC to grab releases of anything, but when you toss in a challenge like this, it's definitely worth it (Was one of the 80-ish). I'm hoping you'll do another in the near future!

If you can connect, get the packlist or just type /msg [d-w]archive xdcc send #294.
Don't use Mibbit.
Or just grab it from /rs/
