I haven't made a single GA for the new year so Boo on me and here are a few to make up for it
Good luck (•‿•)

Hey, I'll tell you here because I don't know if ionface wants to make the puzzle solution public.
You just had to replace "p" and "q" in the hidden code (the pPJq5 one, I assume you found it) with the ending digits of the two prime factors.
Mind that you didn't have to calculate them wholly; knowing that their product was ending with "3" was enough. So you knew for sure that their last digits could only have been 1x3 or 7x9. You had to do a little bruteforce there having 4 possibilities: 1PJ35, 3PJ15, 7PJ95 (the right one) and 9PJ75.
My process was this:
(other solvers which knew math much better than me said that "p" and "q" are normally used to refer to prime factors, so they didn't need to get to that specific idiom)

Wow I was so close and yet so far! The clues were really useful if you knew where to look but they took me further away from the solution.
I hope you won some nice games at least because you deserved it!
Thanks a lot for detailing your process, it's really helpful. Have a 💙

Heh... I can't say I've been lucky. I joined 7 GAs in total in the end and I managed to win only the single GA where I was the sole participant from the batch of games that ended early. Too bad, but I still got something, I guess.
Anyway, have a 💙 too ;)
