I did eventually get it. As a note for those who come after: Spoiler Step 4 wasn't immediately clear to me, even once I had completed Steps 1-3 correctly & properly. But most people seem to realize what the switches must refer to quite quickly, once they look at the results of Step 3.
I know I am really late in the game, but I am have a really hard time with 96PNO-v0.3.3 I have pinpointed the coordinates, check reference date, and even read the threads for clues. I might be highly overthinking this one, and since this is still considered a training module I think I might be in trouble. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Avoid those rabbit holes. Spoiler If you've looked up the coordinates then you know what the site was used for. Cross-reference the date given in the PY file with the activity at the site. Major spoiler Spoiler If you Google the coords, the wiki link immediately underneath the map has your answer
I am in need of more assitance. I am currently in module W7NRH-V3.2.3 I have read the files. Spoiler I tried using the review %'s as code through ASCII, with no luck. Then I looked at everything again. I have tried using the LOG files as code for the REVIEW file. I came up with Rigidity -2, Agreeableness -1, Honesty +1, openness to exp. +3, and Conscientiousness -3. Using these as coordinates, I keep landing on Unusuality. From here I am lost. Am I even heading in the right direction? I would like to thank Popcorn and Maurna for the clues they gave last time I ask for assistance.
Just a curious question, but does anyone know how many versions there are? Or is this an ongoing event?
Another day, another puzzle! Working on 5.2.3 Spoiler There was a spoiler above that mentioned sentence length as a hint. So I counted both by line and by period (assuming I could tell based on sentence structure). I'm seeing some patterns but nothing that jumps out at me. I then went through and found all the places with added or missing letters, I left out typos that were a switch (chekc) and word swaps (two for to) for the moment. I have letters, which I'll leave off for now, but they're not making a word... Help please
Spoiler Type of typos doesn't matter, there are just 2 types of words: typos and normal ones, so keep that in mind while counting words in sentences with typos.
Still stuck on v3.2.3 I've got as far as gilgamesh0306 as desribed in the spoiler below and read the hint provided but i feel im going around in circles. Any help appreciated Spoiler Gilgamesh0306 said: ↑ Same here. What I got so far: The Review file was modified by Samantha, so the clue should be there. Every second trait is not a trait from the dispositional theory, so I tried to use the percentage for a word count in the Journal 17 file, but this gets me nowhere. Same when using only the correct traits You are REALLY REALLY CLOSE. Here's my hint: Journal 17 is just lore for you to read, not a puzzle.
Spoiler What else do you have IN FRONT OF you that you could use THE % to letter count into? I hope this is of help!
Spoiler The journal 17 is not part of the puzzle. What are the %'s referring to? If you need another nudge feel free to PM me.
you're hitting the same issue I did Spoiler What do you know is real vs not? Focus on the not larger and secondary once you've figured out the first part Spoiler double digits are ridiculous, what can you do to make this less nuts
significant potential for spoiling 5.2.3 so uhh don't read if you aren't ready Spoiler So I got some assistance through Discord. Counted my words instead of my letters. Got the pattern with 8. Figured out there's some sort of encoding. been playing with combinations of switches, additions, subtractions, letter replacement typos... nothing is jumping. Also the sentence that is 16 words long filled with typos... It was gently hinted that I'd want to look at hex but that hasn't lead me anywhere other than strings of numbers, which could be more counting but doesn't feel right Help? I'm working with another Agent on Discord and we're both sort of spinning atm
This is what I have tried:Warning Serious spoilers. Spoiler I have converted my 8 words into binary. I have a word from this but can't get it to work!.
