Can't think of anything.  Maybe a drink will help.

Is the brainwallet corresponding to the other 4 usernames 1ED7i2wqgWFRt9Pc21PJMn4UAt4R4ncea?

My best guess was that the numbers corresponded to the letters to use.  But xig?e wasn't a valid username.  You're right about the gambling connection, hmm...

Export your private key to another wallet client.

Could you post the brainwallet address of each of the individual solutions?  Just to check our progress so far?

If we PMed you with our shipping and sent the coins will we get a confirmation?

I thought about trying to brute force the first one, but I think I'll just go to bed Smiley
1288  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Riddle game - Solve it and take the loot! on: August 11, 2013, 09:18:23 AM
Ah I see, that helps a lot
1289  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Riddle game - Solve it and take the loot! on: August 11, 2013, 08:58:16 AM
I think I'm just getting tired, all I can remotely think of for #2 is pywallet Smiley

I have a guess for 3.  Lost on 1&2 now though.

http://www.lepatek.com/eng/product_content/1/1/20/ says G1600-MA is 100-264 V, so if that's your model you could plug it into anything in your house.  It should have a sticker on the back with the voltage range.
1292  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Riddle game - Solve it and take the loot! on: August 11, 2013, 08:19:26 AM
I'm having doubts about 1 now, I was too hasty.
1293  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Riddle game - Solve it and take the loot! on: August 11, 2013, 06:04:55 AM
Can't figure out 2 or 3.  Good fun, though.
1294  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is a "signed message" how/why to send one w/ bitcoin? on: August 11, 2013, 04:41:07 AM
You can use the command line to do it with electrum also.
1295  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is a "signed message" how/why to send one w/ bitcoin? on: August 11, 2013, 03:10:36 AM
I still don't understand it! Sad

Think of the private key as the password to encrypt a message and the public key can be used to decrypt it.  It's not quite right, but close enough.
1296  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is a "signed message" how/why to send one w/ bitcoin? on: August 11, 2013, 12:23:08 AM
Bitcoin consists of two keys.  A private key that can sign messages and a public key that can verify messages.  The private key is in your wallet and the public key is your bitcoin address.  You can sign a message using your wallet.  Bitcoin-qt has a sign command, electrum does too.  So let's say your wallet has the following:

public key:  1J34kfk39dhkf3fl4545l4  (your address)
private key:  5L39adfk4l44vDDF34fkk3299fdkfk433  (your private key)

To sign a message you'll need the private key.  It'll combine it with your message to generate a signature.

Message:
Hello this is Bob and own these shares please transfer them to a new address:  1RunDMC30r94rfdk404331
Combined with private key = Signature:  G40fsadljk309dvlk4lkgG23r32r32rL=

Anyone with the public key (bitcoin address) can verify the message

./electrum verify 1J34kfk39dhkf3fl4545l4  "Hello this is Bob and own these shares please transfer them to a new address:  1RunDMC30r94rfdk404331" G40fsadljk309dvlk4lkgG23r32r32rL=
will return true if it was signed with the private key corresponding to 1J34kfk39dhkf3fl4545l4

This is actually how bitcoin works in the first place -- you sign a message that says "send so and so 15 BTC from this address"

Which wallet did you use to make the original purchase?

How could he think they'd extend him a $5,000 credit line?

I'm interested to see what judgements they have against them.

I doubt mining uses very much bandwidth at all.
