Complex

Welcome to Complex, yet another wierd challenge thing.

The rules;

I give you a code, which will have gone through some translators (be it foreign languages, anagrams or binary). If you can completely decipher the code, you will get points, and eventually maybe even a cookie.

Difficulty:
EASY 10pts (Google is your friend)
MEDIUM 15pts (Some parts may be translated differently to others)
HARD 25pts (SO MANY WEBSITES!)
CHALLENGE 50pts (This is just damn well near impossible)

SCORES
1st - Ultimaximus - 25 points
2nd - Alcaro - 15 points

Well, let's get started.

EASY*
Your standard scrambled sentence.
51 75 65 73 74 6f 20 e8 20 73 74 61 74 6f 20 75 6e 20 74 72 69 6f 6e 66 6f 2e 20 53 74 6f 20 66 61 63 65 6e 64 6f 20 75 6e 61 20 6e 6f 74 61 20 71 75 69 2c 20 67 72 61 6e 64 65 20 73 75 63 63 65 73 73 6f 2e
Solved.

CHALLENGE*
When you solve the challenge, another challenge will replace it.

*an asterisk means the answer will be garbled/Engrished during translation. I will accept word for word translations or (for a bonus x1.5 points rounded up in all cases) what you think it was before the translators garbled it.
Easy: Hex to text: Questo è stato un trionfo. Sto facendo una nota qui, grande successo. A foreign language?!

Italian to English: This has been a triumph. I am making famous here, a large one happening.

Hah! I did it!

Challenge: Binary to text gets me: SmUgbmUgc3VpcyBwYXMgQ3ViZXMgQ/R0ZXMgZGUgdm90cmUgcG9pbnQgZGUgdnVlLg==

Hmmm...

What translator did you use, and did you use one?

I'm gonna have to stick an asterisk on that question.

Work out the original text for the extra 0.5 marks.

Sorry, nope. HINT: Google is still your friend.

Try the new code. The old super-hard-challenge is still open.
Challenge: I am not Cubes Coasts from your point of view.

EDIT: Google Translate?! With that, I get: This was a triumph. I'm making a note here, huge success.

EDIT: New Code: Why don't you let someone else take over? Oh, and call me Ultimaximus, this is just a temporary name change for April Fool's.

Unfinished. Not all translated. No points.

But you do get the extra 5 points for the Portal lyric.
Um, any more?

Nobody has tried the second code yet.

You mean this one? This translates to "Why don't you let someone else take over".

Oh right. Stupid me, trying to cheat you into stopping :P

Coding a new one.

MEDIUM:

I simply cannot get it. I recognize it as base64, but decoding it further and further gets me nowhere. I've been using this site. I hope it's not Chinese or something, as the characters don't display on my computer.

Perhaps a hint?

World Community Grid: Thread | Team
 
Okay, a hint; it's not Base64. This one is stupidly simple, but it's outside the box.
I can't seem to figure out what else to do with this code for the super hard challenge problem:

Code
SmUgbmUgc3VpcyBwYXMgQ3ViZXMgQ/R0ZXMgZGUgdm90cmUgcG9pbnQgZGUgdnVlLg==


=( You should edit some of the problems as people have already solved them, which wasted 10 minutes of my time finding out that "This was a triumph. I'm making a note here, huge success." by going from italian to english.
Your layout has been removed.
the super hard challenge is meant to be a super hard challenge.

As for the medium one, I'll give it another day or so, and then tell you. You'll probably call it unfair, but if you read the whole thing through, you'll find a clue to the answer.
I'm sorry, but I simply do not get how it is decoded. I've tried multiple sites, and I do not get it. Looking at it doesn't help either.

Easy.
It's "Hi!" (yes, that long code became that short message).
Here's the input, intermediate steps, and output, so you can see how it's done:

Success.

I'll make a new code after food.
Can I submit mine too? I've got a wise one, and it's different from yours. Medium should be it's difficulty. Assuming this thread is still alive.
I don't really get the difficulty meter... I don't think that the more you have to get far to translate it should define the difficulty. I think it's how cleverly it is being coded. If I had to rely on that, I'd say Hard.
Our world will stop advancing once humans manage to create sufficient magnificence for a whole lifetime. Until then, I just create.
