Down the Rabbit Hole

Event's Structure

Dates & Duration

  • Start : 15th of January 2017 00:00 GMT+1.
  • End : 27th of February 2017 00.00 GMT+1.

Puzzles

  1. Puzzles will be divided in two parts :
    • The first macro part will be a Group Puzzle. Here we allow, and strongly encourage, to share ideas, reasoning, and even the method to solve a puzzle. However we will ask to not reveal any link to any stage of this event nor any answer.
    • The second part will be an Individual Puzzle. Here we will not allow any kind of sharing, you will be alone in solving this part. The reason for this is that everyone will have fun with the first part, but we also want to reward who will be dedicated and will persevere trough to end for their efforts.
  2. You will find some checkpoints, those will help us keep track of the progression of the puzzle and will prevent someone sneaking ahead without solving previous steps.
  3. Difficulty will vary. We will start with something easy and gradually make things harder.

Giveaways

  1. Giveaways will also be split in two parts:
    • Group Puzzle : These giveaways are allowed to have protection set by the creator, such as: sgtools rules, level restriction, denied access due to blacklist ecc. Every giveaway will be invite only and will not be shared in any way with whitelist and groups.
    • Individual Puzzle : These giveaways will have no restriction, but if needed will be put behind sgtools filter with no rules to allow us to see who joined and when he did so.
  2. Giveaways will start on the 28th of Jenuary 2017 00:00 GMT+1 and will end 30 days later.

Notes

  1. Sharing answer and/or links to Puzzles, part of Puzzles and/or Giveaways will result in a report to SG Support, your addition to our Blacklist and you will be ineligible to win any of the Giveaways created for the event.
  2. We kindly ask you not to share the length of the Event nor the length of any segment and/or part of Down the Rabbit Hole.
  3. Everything in the event will be important, so don't overlook anything.
  4. Refrain from posting information of everything that has nothing to do with the corresponding section of the event in the "Discussions Giveaways":

Hints

  1. Since nowadays the cool kids use a "Buy the Hints" system we're going to do the same. Every class of Puzzles will have a specific cost :
    • Entrance Puzzle hints will cost 10p each.
    • First Year Puzzles hints will cost 25p each .
    • Second Year Puzzles hints will cost 50p each.
    • Third Year Puzzles hints will cost 100p each.
    • Individual Puzzles hints will cost 150p each.
    • Additional Note : You'll understand the Year division by participating in the event.
    • Additional Note : Once unlocked the Hint/s will be visible by anyone who reaches the stage in which they are unlocked, not just by the Giveaway Creators that contributed to unlock the Hint/s.
  2. Giveaways created trough this system will be placed on the main Page and will be open for everyone who meets the creator's requirements, if there are any.
  3. If you wish to create a Giveaway for the hint the mandatory end is before the 21th of February 00:00 GMT+1 so that any Fake Giveaway created to exploit this system will be spotted before we send most of the Keys.
    • You can set the starting date and the duration freely as long as you respect the limitation on the ending date.
    • If given a valid reason, and if this is not abused, we may, or may not, grant the possibility to delete a giveaway created for an Hint only before its end, however if the giveaway is deleted we will subtract its value from the respective threshold and if delete any Hint that would return to being locked until it's unlocked again.
  4. Points refer to the how many points you would spend to enter a Giveaway.

We hope that you all will have a good time and enjoy this event.

Thanks for reading and for joining us in "Down the Rabbit Hole".


This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.

~ Which one will you take ? ~
Red Pill On this first stage you will have to share more than you think. A lone solver won't even budge the door.What you need here is an army to breach the entrance! Red Pill

Yes, it would have been too easy otherwise. Also compared to the "Maze" it really easier to solve if you look at the help that has been given.

Doesn't Morshock need to make giveaways for the hint system? So he has to make giveaways for his giveaway puzzle to get to the giveaways

I have no idea how it would work. Morshock can't give him or herself hints on what they can't solve.

"We kindly ask you not to share the length of the Event nor the length of any segment and/or part of Down the Rabbit Hole"

Is this something I can ask you over Steam? You did arrange this event after all.
I am interested in buying a hint but I'd rather be stuck than to solve it & find out there's an even worse section after it.

Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.

There are 4~5 of us all stuck on the same section.
And no one wants to group together to buy hints for that section.

ITH Website sucks sometimes, it bugged on me.

Oh, you replied to me recently.
Cheer up. (as you probably saw) I also ranted a bit of how ridiculous that part is. But it wasn't as hard as I thought.

Where I am on the other hand.... Everyone else passed and I'm just mostly lonely. :(

Nordhbane pretty much summed it up. That section is completely limited to what a person has experienced in their lifetime, or what knowledge they have acquired.

Q6 for me is impossible, I have tried literally everything under the sun.
EDIT: ITH script sucks.

Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

General knowledge should almost suffice though.

Comment has been collapsed.

No one has General Knowledge of everything. You will always have that one person who simply hasn't experienced it, or doesn't do something that other people do.

7 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

In any quiz game knowledge is expected. And www is even less knowledge orientated than other quizzes because you very often do not know exact facts but still you can come up with correct answers by using logic.

7 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Q2, Q3, and Q5 I knew though.
Q1 (for the reason I told you about) and Q4 (because it's way too specific) are the ones that gave me trouble, while Q6 is still giving me trouble.

EDIT: ITH script sucks.

Oh, that's good that I gave up on group section and don't suffer even further.

How do you know there are so many stuck on the same question? In the GA I could only see 2 people saying Q6 is stopping them. A hint would only get you help on one of the six questions.

We're not all stuck on the same question, but almost all are stuck on the same section.

Lesson 2, that was the bold vs normal font, correct?

If you have a hard time seeing the font, you can zoom in on the page, or (while accurate, it's a bit more work) you can select the text and view source.

The sentence with the bold text explains exactly what you need to do. :P Perhaps you need to research more how baconian works? =)

Here is another tool I often use for baconian. It uses the same kind of example. :)
