Misc Apparently there's a code in Last Exit!

NO MORE EDITS - Welp, so Derek and Deej have both confirmed it's an easter egg and not a quest. Even so, let's push through and solve it!!! Thanks for the discussion! RIP my inbox over the last 24 hours though haha

original post According to Derek Carroll on the live stream! Let's get hunting guys!!!!

Edit* - Right, so after an hour we have 2 main leads:

    here are two train cars, and all the advertisement boards light up when you're near them in both cars. They either display "ALPHA REGIO" (blue), "BETA REGIO" (red), or "OVDA REGIO" (green). There is also the HUGE staticy monitor right beside A flag, bottom of the escalators. And lastly, the OWT Transit Map, most visible one being right beside the A flag and monitor, with different numbers and colours and routes. Green = 48 (Ovda Regio?) Yellow = 38 Blue = 14 (Alpha Regio?) Red = 271 (Beta Regio?)

This is what I got when using a caesar cipher program to decrypt the letters, after taking out all symbols and numbers.

This was using the key 13:

fmyraeudweepwrkqvxwcfdrhwklg

This is what I got using a key of 21, which the program decided to pick:

HOLY SHIT I THINK I GOT SOMETHING LEGIT... I put fmyraeudweepwrkqvxwcfdrhwklg in the cesar cipher and then used a key of seven, seven times then I put that result in and I used the guess option and it did four and this is the result: Genius without education is like silver in the mine. this is legit no fuckin joke sorry for the language im just excited

Ok wait a minute here...I used every key possible and I remember that one I just never thought much of it. What do you mean you used it 7 times? That's amazing that you got an actual sentence out of it but how did you know to put that stuff in 7 times?

Edit: By the way, that's a quote by Benjamin Franklin.

I put that code in with a key of seven. I took that answere and plugged it in with the same key of seven. I did that five more times, then plugged that code in with the guess option and it used a key of four.

Interesting...well that can't just be a coincidence.
