Scizor wrote It seems that Adam and Craig are the furthest along in the contest so I think it's only fair to let them squirm for a little while more since they are pretty smart, for UK Members .

For those still stuck behind them, and maybe having trouble with the first hint, this goes hand in hand with the first one;

afterwards,

If you feel you're going too fast, slow down. And try working backwards.


*Edit* Building off of Ahri's post above, the contest is simple in the sense compared to recent ones because there's no requirement to understand any sort of programming, or code breaking really. It's mostly finding new ways that haven't been recycled to solve problems. However I do think it will pose a challenge because of that.

Congratulations to Fold for completing the contest first! He will be awarded the Wizard badge for his efforts, his steps were as follows -

1. Download Ahri's broken signature from his post, change to .rar, which works but the files inside are useless. Instead change the .png to a .mp3.

2. mp3 is distorted and impossible to hear what is being said. Change to .5 speed and reverse it, hear a voice reading out " 2 2 6 9 7 6 7 STOP 2 2 2 7 8 5"

3. 2269767 = User ID of Pokimanefan69, 222785 = Download ID of "11 Part Pie Recipe

4. From Pokimanefan69's account, navigate to "rooty.org/SmoothBit" (In personal info of profile)

5. Be presented with:


6. Take the RGB color code of each square and come up with: 217837992184921173170785187191142221221237178227210111665136

7. Useless for now, go back to the 11 part pie recipe.txt

8. Look inside text for the reversed first 11 digits of pi:


9. Combine 217837992184921173170785187191142221221237178227210111665136 and 31415926535 = 21783799218492117317078518719114222122123717822721011166513631415926535 (????)

10. Navigate to thetechgame.com/21783799218492117317078518719114222122123717822721011166513631415926535 -> Redirects to 34.66.202.191/2178379921849211731...926535.php

11. Disable javascript in your browser to avoid the "Fatal Error" pop-up

12. Receive this:


13. QR code sends you to a rodger rodger video, cry

14. Instead, play with levels on cat image in Ahri's post on thread to unveil: 29aCBKE74zGgkBm4Wa , input as invitation code, and receive: "Congratulations, PM me with the winning phrase "Discombobulated" as well as the steps taken to claim your prize. "

Final Answer: Discombobulated
