About first image. What if blue dot represents pattern inverse? For example, before it we grab all one color dots, and after it we must grab another color dots? What if stop word is not stop word? And are you see that if you mix up some colors?
Just wanted to say this is very cool. Love the idea.
I think that we are missing something and thats might we are going to be getting a new hint.
7/1
New hint will be released within 24 hrs

IMHO this means OP concluded she messed-up something, probably being slightly vague with 'Hint.jpg'. I think we concluded too few things from the 'Bit Sha' phrase and she is going to give us some hint what does it refer to. Actually, we concluded 0 things from it, with everybody concentrating on the 7:51 part. My gut feeling it has something to do with cryptography. If you look at the retrospect we had used no knowledge of cryptography, which is a bit odd for a Bitcoin-related puzzle.
Go to sleep guys, not good for ya. I've been up 24 hours on it and I'm starting to see crap. I can't handle it as well as I could when I was in my teens D: Need to stay up 4 more hours to get back into proper schedule. @.@
Different timezones bro.
It's passed 1AM here
And really I didn't get much sleep lately.....
None the less, I wish you goodnight or good afternoon or good morning depending on where you are
I live in The Netherlands and it is 00:41 over here (24 hour notation). Going to leave now as well, time to get some rest. It's passed 1AM here
And really I didn't get much sleep lately.....

Yeah, I think I am going to sleep too.
Too tired and my head hurts....
Goodnight bro
That is a wise idea. I should do the same, but well, school is preventing me to do so, hahaha. Too tired and my head hurts....
Goodnight bro
Good night dude!

So what up?
Did everyone go to sleep for 24 hours?
Nothing? Nada?
Well, I am empty for tonight. I really can't think of anything, sorry dude. Did everyone go to sleep for 24 hours?

I can't see anything glaring me in the face?
This under Lewis Carroll is a bit odd....

Wait a minute....
Alice, in 24hrs at what timezone?
Alice, in 24hrs at what timezone?
Unsure. but keep checking regular. within the next 24 hours for when that was stated.
Oh crap.....
Barely any sleep again......
Haha I cant see them posting it within a few hours they'll probably want to wait a while to add to the suspense. get a nap in!

Can anyone do a summary again of the all the found stuff and are we still looking for stuff on the minecraft server?
mirth23 is quite good at those...
mirth23's helpful summary #57
current data set:
- original image with undeciphered characters
- 7z file titled "Onion"
- image file titled Hint.jpg, dimensions 799x1039
- slightly hidden plaintext clues: "7:51" "Bit Sha"
- ghost images in the background of the image
probable next step:
- find the password to open 1.7z
solution thoughts:
- there are a number of bible verses that apply to 7:51 (John, Acts, 1 Kings, Numbers); none of them seem particularly useful
- googling "BitSha" didn't give us much useful. presumably "Sha" refers to the hash algorithm
- x=7 z=51 on the minecraft server didn't have much to see (server appears down now)
- 7:51 might mean the range between 7 and 51 of some other puzzle element
- we've got a few interesting primes with 7, 51, and the image height
- 51 is the length of a private bitcoin key
- what does "Onion" mean? a TOR address? many layers of an onion? something else?
- image analysis of this particular image appears to be best done with LAB and CYMK
- there are a LOT of unexplained artifacts remaining in the image. a darker wide vertical band in the middle, several places with possible text, figures, etc. perhaps the text is a hint to further decoding the image?
- I am pretty certain that the central image is not the Cheshire Cat, it looks more like burial mounds or standing stones
- all other puzzles have involved a video game - does the ghost image look familiar to anyone in that context?
