Whew! Good job getting here. :)
At this point, I consider this one of the second tier prizes.
Will not contain additional puzzle information.

EDIT: I originally got here after only deciphering Lollercopterwaffle message and getting 'microphone' from #9. The way dys has set this up allowed to only partially solve this puzzle, get a clue and then do the rest with what essentially amounted to bruteforcing a word. It is not really different or more complicated than bruteforcing a letter, just longer. Not that long though. Even so, it certainly was not something that dys anticipated, so even though I was happy with outsmarting the odds and getting here, I decided not to enter until I actually solved the required sub-puzzles.
And guess what, couple days later I did solve the other puzzles that were required for direct access here :D
EDIT2: Well but I won 3 giveaways from dys already (pretty much because I was the only solver that didn't have them, so I was the only entrant) so I guess I'll leave this one for Rys33 after all so he gets something good from this event, too.
Anyway dys, like I said, great puzzles, great giveaways, tough love. Much appreciated!

Ho. I can't think of a relatively easy way to bruteforce words(!). But must admit if I encounter a chance to bruteforce anything I always pursue it. If I see a chance it becomes obsession. So I can't blame you for doing it :)

I didn't mean to be grumpy about it. :/
We'll figure something out.

No worries man, for me the point is your puzzles were this annoying kind of fun and the fact I'm here is already rewarding in its own way! :)
In the meantime I got #2 at least, but still can't get that "hacking" puzzle that is second required part for the 'canonical' way of getting here. Must've missed somethin, ideas I tried with the GREED code didn't work out.

See my new hints from today about it in the thread.

That did help, thank you! Still had to have some serious AHA! moment, but now I'm only left with #3 and #5 taunting and haunting me, hehe :)

Lol. Got here from 2 and 7 :) Thank you!
That'll be the 7th for me!
Already got Tropico 3, so not gonna enter.
Edit: You know, dys, you're making jewels of puzzles :)

I'm glad someone else made here and the way dys intended. This will make him way happier than my approach :)
