First one is decrypted, it's a mysterious zip file. It requires a password though, which will probably be in another one of the clues.
One is an EXE, another a PNG and another is straight source code. They're still being deciphered |

Sniper's codes are looking like they're a MIDI file.
Basically, each class says a "joke" in text chat when a person with the capacitor high fives. Each "joke" is actually lines of binary, with each word in the joke referencing a byte of binary, and the year of the joke is the order for the bytes. A joke looks like this

So far Spy's has been cracked. It was a zip file, but it required a password. Engineer's is straight source code that does some simple math, but it's not fully cracked. Sniper's is a Midi. Demoman is a .txt file. There's also a PNG in there, and an EXE, I don't remember the classes they go with. This is basically the Banana ARG of last month on steroids. It doesn't help High Fives and Capacitors are rare items.

}
.......................Valve = 3;
...for (int i = 0; i <5991; i++)

...Q( Valve % 18334 .Ç'wí–alv.... 3;
...Q( Valve - 6....);
...for (...t m = 0; m < 19....+ )
....Val.........int OSW= 4.....+ 1;
...Q ( OSW );...OSW *= 2;
...Q ( OSW + 1 );
...Q ( OSW+ 2 );
...int l...45;
......Q.( l / 3 );
...Val......;
...int
no.................. 3;
...Q ( nott.........}
.................‰œ
My bet, the code produces the key needed for the spy's keepass file.

What if... what if all the places that Red and Blu have been fighting over for all these years have been secret facilities designed to record combat data and generate resources for the Gray team robots. Factories, trainyards, secret labs, briefcases full of intelligence, gravel pits, historic landmarks. The reason the Administrator has been playing both sides has been so she can create the ultimate army, and now the robots are here to replace us. We've been fueling our own demise.

Foundry's fires have gone out, its smokestacks aren't smoking, and the smelting has stopped.
Whatever metal things they were making... are completed. (note that Foundry came with a Terminator reference achievement if you go knocked into the metal) |

TF2's lore is great fun to follow. Pity I don't care for the game itself. ;)

Everyone gets three codes. Only one person needs the capacitor and/or the high five (either can start the taunt).
Go to (quote to see) and join BLU team, they'll help you from there. They have people set up with capacitors and high five taunts, so you don't need either to get your codes. We still need a lot of codes though, right now Engy is getting closest, any little bit helps. |

Here's the data found so far
Soldier's progress  "Councilman" upside down. It is NOT the password to the zip, meaning another one of those will probably be password protected.
