Code to break: SFAS NJHX FYOP WHWR EWPW TSIX TPZE MPRD TF And your only hint: YHVgFHyWYHxgDxAOYHSRDj== (PS the hint is double encrypted) First solution wins something. Not sure what quite yet, but most likely $5 steam giftcard.... If you think you have solved it Please put your Solution Submission in Spoiler tags. Congrats to REZLAR for being the first to officially solve the puzzle! This puzzle has been Solved by: Kakuzen RezLar
Solved it, but the prize is still out there due to not claiming it! Lots of fun with this one, thx Cicada EDIT: Yeah, Cicada1337 is a klutz lol
This Still Remains Unsolved (Kakuzen turned down the prize due to my accidental slip of the tongue that allowed him to solve it)
Working on this. I think I know step one of the hint and what the thing to solve is coded in. Not sure about step 2 for the hint though.... Not sure if looking for gibberish or real word. Got the hint.
Got it. It is Spoiler THE CODE WORD SOLUTION IS PHEONIX RISING Thanks for the fun in solving this! Here is a walk through for anyone who might want it. Spoiler Hint: YHVgFHyWYHxgDxAOYHSRDj== Translate Given hint to ROT 13. (ROT 13 > Text) This gives you: LUItSUlJLUktQkNBLUFEQw== Translate new code from Base64 to Text to get: -B-III-I-BCA-ADC Solution: SFAS NJHX FYOP WHWR EWPW TSIX TPZE MPRD TF Take hint section and set up enigma machine to the following: Umkehrwalze: B Walzenlage: III-I-II (you have to guess and test for the II) Ringstellung: B-C-A Grundstellung: A-D-C Set group letters in blocks of____ to: 4 Enter block of text mode and insert the part to solve. (Note one block at a time or it won't work) You get: THEC ODEW ORDS OLUT IONI SPHE ONIX RISI NG Then just change where the spaces are and you get: The code word solution is pheonix rising
Congrats RezLar on being the first to solve! Send me a PM so we can talk about your prize I've got a few options for you to pick from hahaha
