Then we can all get a BP, since you didn’t restrict to only “first person to solve it”. |

All new TMs replied.
MC Banhammer was first to solve 8.
I’m off for the rest of the day so don’t cry if I don’t respond quickly. Maybe more tonight, we’ll see. |

Challenge #6 complete. Pretty easy, all things considered. I must just be better at recognizing some things than other things.
Why yes, that is horribly ambiguous, but it is not my place to inadvertently give hints.

Woohoo. There’s number 3 figured out.
How the HELL was the Alice clue supposed to help, there?
*Awaits the Tubmailing of Challenge 4*

This one is much more complicated – and just the same, actually worth something to solve as well.
It involves uniform data transformations – three, to be exact. Solve this, win prize.

I thought I was gonna do that until 4 screwed the **** out of me.. I have no clue what to do here…
The hint doesn’t help too much either.. ALL puzzles, EVAR, are “more than meets the eye” lol. condoleezzabutts edited this message on 10/28/2008 11:34PM |

Damn. It’s a shame I solved it then, huh?
Most of these binary translators don’t translate every ASCII character very well. I actually downloaded a hex editor and manually replaced each hex. I Tubmailed him the answer.
And I Tubmailed it to him several hours ago as well, so no point in trying to jump on it now. FFnut edited this message on 10/29/2008 12:26AM |

oh i see FalconFour Posted:
I beg to differ sir! your code seems to be dynamic anyway, or at least different for each digit. So the first 84 wouldn’t translate the same as the second 84. Inertia edited this message on 10/29/2008 12:49AM |

FFnut Posted:
but it says to post in the forum how you solved it by de-64ing, inverting the binary, then making it into a rar file.

And if he grades it that way and gives you the IOU for the BP, that’s nice. I gave my reasons for not posting it in the thread in the Tubmail I sent him, and honestly, would you have solved it if I didn’t mention downloading a hex editor to manually put it in?
If you win, that’s good for you. If I win, that’s good for me. But don’t act like you’re better than me just because I had my own reasons for not putting my method here. Especially since you apparently needed my method in the first place to get the answer. |
