Hello,
First I want to say that when I joined this community at first I just wanted games, I didn't even have in mind making a giveaway,
later I convinced myself that this was a nice place to hang around when I'm bored and read and see funny stuff/talk about games.

A couple days ago I lost a friend like some of you may know. I want to thank those people and I decided that a giveaway could be a nice option.

Also if you were one of the people that helped me (chatted with me a bit in the thread). You have free access to the giveaway.
Also on a side note I did take revenge and this is my first puzzle and giveaway :) Feedback appretiated

EDIT: The first one is a Polybius Square and the second one is a Straddling Checkerboard that needs a key word, solve the first puzzle to find the key word.

  • It's a cake:
    41 26 23 36 11 42 23 35

-----1--2--3--4---5--6

1---A--B--C--D--E--F

2---G--H-I/J--K--L--M

3---N--O--P--Q--R--S

4---T--U--V--W--X--Y

5---Z--1--2---3--4--5

6---6--7--8---9--0--=

  • The answer to the Polybius Square is a word with the same letter twice, change the second letter (just the second letter!) with an X then replace the question marks in the 2nd puzzle with the new word

Code:3 8 7 9 23

---0---1--2---3--4--5--6----7--8--9

---?---?------?--?--?-------?--?--?

2--+--F--P--E--C--G--W--J--O--L

6--/--N--K--D--H--V--Q--Y--Z--B

This is to show which letters are caps and which are not: XXxxX

EDIT: I will add the winner when i have time, wish you good luck to all of you :)

Puzzle 1: Decoding will give you this letters in this order: T-M-I/J-S-A-U-I/J-R

Mini puzzle 1: A lot of people missed this part, the letters where scrambled.
It says "It's a cake" for a reason, answer: T-I-R-A-M-I-S-U

Mini puzzle 2: Not really a puzzle but whatever, answer: T-I-R-A-M-X-S-U

Solve the first puzzle it will give you a key word to solve the 2nd one

Could you explain this a bit better?

"Substitute the letter (2nd) that is repeated in the word with X"

Comment has been collapsed.

you have to solve the polybius square first (the first puzzle) it's a word with the same letter twice, change the second one for an X

Just wondering, how did you take revenge?

Comment has been collapsed.

well... my neighbor loves 2 things his daughter and his car.

And I would never ever hurt someone, so... yeah.

Sugar to the gas tank 1kg of sugar that is.

Ah, I see.

Let's hope that it won't turn into a vicious cycle of revenge.

well, every day molestation it's common with my neighbor anyways and I'm not really aggressive but well, he poisoned her, even bragged about it I had to do something

I don't know the whole story. But knowing that he bragged about it? Now, that's some fked up crap.

I didn't know such a man exists. Hope some bad karma befalls on him.

Well, I hope you had found closure for your loss of your cat. Take care man!

Use bleach instead of sugar. Much more effective.

I strongly believe there is something wrong with the riddle. Are you sure it is correct?

i dont get how you are suppose to present the answer. as in i dont get the 2nd part. where does the code go?

the code is the answer encrypted, you have to solve it using the board

Are you sure the puzzle is right? Cuz I found the answer, typed the link and it says its invalid...

Definitely something wrong with this, and the checkerboard is kinda wrong as well, since it has a letter under 3 in the first row and a row labeled 3.

1 decade ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Yes, it has to be wrong. It can't be a row "3", it should be "6".
I have found the answer and it says invalid :(

cryptography is all about confusing anyone that stumbles upon the data. Play around with it a bit and you'll figure it out.

1 decade ago

ok, finally found. But the Straddling Checkerboard is still wrong (second row has to be 6, but no has nothing to do with the answer).

Very clever riddle :)

got the idea eventually, still doesn't change the fact that the checkerboard is wrong though :D

It's not wrong, that's how it's meant to be.

From the wiki (the link was posted by Mazther himself, it is not spoiler):
"The remaining rows are labeled with each digit that was not assigned a letter in the second row, and then filled out with the rest of the alphabet."

The real code does not use blank spaces: you code (3 8 7 9 23) should be 387923. In this way you can't know if you want to decipher 3-8-7-9-23 or 38-7-9-23, both of them are possible in your puzzle. That's why it should be 2 and 6 the rows: a code 387923 it could be ONLY 3-8-7-9-23, because 38 does not exists :)

Is the first one an actual word, or just a bunch of letters, as I can't seem to get a valid code?
