    heloo everyone!!! I was at the ComicCon today and saw this game booth for black watchmen. After solving a briefcase puzzle they had, i found this letter inside and they said that people on the forums wanted to see it. took a quick pic of it, no idea what to make of it!!! Figured you all would know more what to do than me comicconletter.jpg

    It appears that we need someone to get information from the convention tomorrow. "Our recruiter will be at the costumed gathering tomorrow, but he only talks to party guests..."

    From the comic con website, 8:30PM, main events hall 1. I think its likely this is the "Costumed Gathering" tomorrow.

    Our location thread does not have anyone on the ground, do we have confirmed agents on site for this event?

    We've reached a consensus on IRC:

    Agent mamoudousmoot will be on-site at the masquerade, wearing a paper crown (as mentioned in the report), on it written "Happy Re-Birth Day." Hopefully this will be the correct attire to indicate that they are a recruit. We're now working on a briefcase:

    I don't understand how you decoded it. When I decode the encrypted message in ROT18 (on http://approsto.com/rot-encoder-decoder/ ; https://gc.de/gc/rot18/ ; http://www.webutils.pl/index.php?idx=rot), all I obtain is :
    bmzzodibn izr didodvoz. rz vmz bgvy oj rzgxjhz tjp oj jpm izr xzmzhjit. kgzvnz ejdi pn ajm v rjiyzmapg kvmot ji npiyvt. tjp xvi adiy jpo hjmz czmz wdogt6CuYcWV

    In addition, the bit.ly URL is already over ? Because http://bit.ly/1HzDhbA is broken

    BTW, I've created an entry on the wiki : http://wiki.blackwatchmen.com/index.php/Mission_205017

    The correct address is http://bit.ly/1HzDhBA

    The ROT18 on those websites still uses ROT13 for alphabets (and ROT5 for numbers). You will need to shift both letters and numbers by 18.

    Scratch that. Only need to shift the letter by 18. Leave the numbers alone. >_<

    There was an update on the site:
    With the right words, you can show off your status as a party guest.
    If you're feeling tongue tied, have some delicious cake. Specially made here!
    It has filling so good it will break the ice.
    Party invites end today at 5, so be ready party guests!

    So, any ideas regarding the cake made specially here? I wonder if here is the Con, or Montreal in general.

    What I understand is that if we don't find the right password, mamoudousmoot must take a cake near the masquerade animation to break the ice. It would be a kind of joker ^^ I'm investigating the cake picture on the site (it's a stock image found in several PDF about kids fairs and this kind of animations).
    Or maybe there is a message in the cake at the comiccon ? Or on the cake ?

    EDIT: no results with steganography (so no hidden message inside the cake.png)

    We need to get the follow-up information as to what occurred at the Masquerade from what it sounds like.
