Re: Encrypted Game Manual - Could we crack it?
The easiest one to do with rules is 2014. If you assume that a 10,000 word dictionary could find each of the 3 words (it would also have to contain capitalization variations) and 4 random characters (100 character search space), you have a search space of 100,000,000,000,000,000,000 passwords.
Given the posted rate of 670 million keys per second and 10,000 people in FIRST all trying to crack in a perfectly distributed way, it would take about half a year to exhaust the search space.
In order to generalize it to the rules in the first post, it would take several orders of magnitude longer.
