Season 6 of Archer has been sprinkled with clues, and an imgur user has been following the trail — the highlights of which so far have been a Flickr account and Algersoft.net (Login: Krieger Password: guest).

Eh? There haven't actually been that many recurring non-[name of spy agency / former spy agency acting as an organized crime family] characters on the show to begin with, and two of the most prominent ones (Barry and Katya) have appeared this season. Honestly, I'm glad they're not more prominent because their gags were getting a bit stale with them appearing so much in previous seasons. Unless you're like a Brett Bunsen superfan or something, I'm not sure where this idea that something major has changed about how they use recurring characters is coming from.

OK, let me clarify. For a while, at least, we actually had Archer and Lana on missions, and he managed to do a great job of being both really good at his work, while being really bad at just about everything else. And there were plenty of other faces around that made it feel like a real agency.
Now they've pretty much dropped all of that. When there is a mission, which is rare anymore, there's always a reason for the entire crew to come along. More often, it's just some random situation, with everyone doing what they do, except even more excessively. It's pretty much dropped the setting completely.

Oddly, you see the trajectory of Archer's character as almost the reverse of what evilangela describes:
evilangela: "he managed to do a great job of being both really good at his work, while being really bad at just about everything else"
bitteroldman: "Went from a bumbling Americanized Jacques Clouseau to an arrogant Americanized James Bond. The first few seasons he'd regularly get in trouble and need to be bailed out by Lana or sheer luck, but he managed to be likeable. In later episodes he's basically indestructible and a jerk 100% of the time."

Here's the sequence, to check it and for posterity:
1. A scene in episode two shows a monitor that included two separate strings of hexadecimal numbers separated by a slash:
Assuming that each of those two digit numbers are the hex assignments for ASCII characters, a conversion (excluding that slash) produces:
...which is obviously a web address,
2. That address resolves over to a YouTube video posted by "Webdriver Pelvis" (this is the only video posted to that account). The video is mysterious with some very annoying audio. Someone thought to analyze the audio with a spectrogram, produced this spectrogram of the audio.
Because I was curious, I went ahead and did this myself, and here is a short screenshot video of me playing it in Adobe Audition, with the spectrogram.
Anyway, that spectrogram reveals this alphanumeric sequence hidden within it:
3. That sequence wasn't meaningful yet, but in episode six there's a scene showing a computer monitor with something that looks suspiciously like a web address at the top, with the colon and the double slashes, but encrypted somehow:
Someone figured out that this was using a Vigenère Cipher and that the previously discovered sequence was the passkey used to decode it. This produces the decoded web address:
...which, unfortunately, is now an expired Craigslist post. But here's an archive of it.
4. That Craigslist post (to new york >manhattan >community >volunteers) reads:
5. That web address resolves to a particular reddit comment by user TT0077269:
If we just assume that it's the simplest code possible -- each number represents a letter's position in the English alphabet -- we get:
...which is yet another familiar tinyified web address: tiny.cc/yyz. One very interesting thing about this is that this is a custom tiny url -- they normally assign some random string out of your control when you convert some long web address into a tiny one. But as we know, Krieger loves Rush and YYZ is a famous Rush song, so there you go.
6. Finally, that web address resolves to Dr. Algernop Krieger's flickr account.

When Conan O'Brien talked about wrting for the Simpsons, he said his favorite to write for was Mr. Burns, cause was "infinitely old and infinitely rich" so you could have him say and do the most insane things and they would make sense for his character. Krieger is the same way, so long as you keep him to his wheelhouse of drug-induced math-rock perv-science, he can do *anything*.

Dunno. Is this content as full of galloping transmisogyny as the show itself has been this season?
Could you elaborate on this ?

Huh -- is there a way to beat "You're Not My Supervisor"?
Burn everything in the office before escaping out the elevator.

Honestly, even aside of the "man hands" runner on Lana, there're quite a few other transphobic/transmisogynistic jokes. Wasn't it the season premiere where Archer was with some Thai prostitutes, and there was a whole thing about whether or not they were men or women?
I love Archer, but I would love it even more if they knocked shit like that off.

And there is Ray's 'girl, or boy, or genderfluid, or however you self-identify' joke from this season in 'Pocket Listing'

On beating You're Not My Supervisor:
You have to burn all the furniture in the room. That will open the door. It helps to make wide loops through the room, but the copier/toaster's randomness gets in the way. It might not be winnable on every play because of that. Also, it's really easy to get caught up on barriers.

Huh, I just thought that was Ray being Ray. Didn't even register as a joke.
