I wanted to stay consistent with the 3-6 digits per number rule to make the challenge easier to figure out in general. There are only two numbers that are actually truncated, so hopefully it isn't that big of a problem.

I'm a huge fan of both computer science and secret messages. If that's your cup of tea, I challenge you to decipher this secret message in under 30 guesses and test your general knowledge of computing.

I might be wrong, but isn't it the case only for x86-64 though? It looks like on other architectures .text base address might be different (It seems to be 0x08048000 on i386 for example).
