I substituted one letter for another one at a time until all was revealed. It was like playing wheel of fortune. |

I would prefer if you didn’t publicly post solutions, although that part’s really easy. In fact, you did it the hard way. |

I just said a tiny bit more than what you quoted in the first post of this page, sorry, I wasn’t trying to ruin it for anyone. I want more people to get to where I am already so maybe someone can understand it! |

If, by tomorrow, I don’t think of any better hints and no one gets Puzzle 1, I will release a hint that will probably largely blow the puzzle open. |

I found that it was more a matter of spotting proper patterns. |

There were three that were really obvious, then two more that were pretty obvious, and that was enough to start piecing stuff together. I was doing it by hand, but then I found a site that made it go quicker Log in to see images!
I imagine there was a way to do it by running it through a program or something, but I had some skillz that had been languishing in the back of my head since eighth grade. It was actually quite fun.
That was plenty vague, right? |

Okay, the new hint, coupled with the homophone stuff, should be enough. Hopefully someone will get it by tomorrow. If not, I’ll drop the number of puzzles. |

The answer is not what goes into the blanks; I have essentially revealed part of the path to the solution. One player has come close. |

Congratulations to Miss Prince, the first player to actually complete a puzzle! Hopefully other people will get it before s/he goes through too many other puzzles. |

Oh, whoops, I forgot there’s a second place prize. Still, I hope the other puzzles aren’t too easy. Puzzle 2 was the trivia I already said should have gone first. |

dude, ya made everyone find the contest, decode the rules and give out the first clue that no one could figure out, then pump out enough hints which I honestly still don’t have a clue for a answer, all for part 1 of 5 >.>
I’m gonna ask someone else and give him the hints and if he can’t get it ya I’m throwing in the towel |

Yeah, I didn’t think this through enough. Puzzle 1 probably should have been Puzzle 5, the hiding part should have been a puzzle, and the code could have been removed. I wish I could redo it, but, of course, I can’t. |
