  1. Goodsmp1luckmyandreshave fun:)

    Edit: solution found. I will post an explanation and the prize tomorrow. Thanks for playing :D
    How it was done:
    1. You had to realize there was grey text in the above message. Doing so would point you to my res.
    2. Once on my res, you had to find the two policemen who claim to be investigating a crime. They will tell you to leave them alone. If you ignore them, you will find sign with some numbers behind a bookshelf.
    3. Those numbers correspond to one of my posts. emc.gs/posts/<numbers> brings you to the post.
    4. The post has encrypted text and a link. Following the link leads to an image.
    5. The image has a sign with some symbols on it. If you open the image with notepad, there is some hidden text saying "aes-256" which corresponds to the encryption algorithm. Plugging the first block of text with the password from the sign gives a clue about storing secret keys.
    6. Realizing that the emphasized word "store" corresponds to my store will lead you to a book. Throwing the book in a hopper in my secret garden opens a door.
    7. This door leads to the place the picture was taken. The sign though is different. Decrypting the second set of text reveals a loc on my Utopia residence.
    8. The loc has a bunch of dirt and a wall. Translating the dirt holes to binary and then to ascii gives the word troll.
    9. Using troll on the third block of text gives a story related phrase.
    10. At this point, my res is modified and there is a hole where one wasn't before. Jumping down it leads to a simple picture frame pressure plate door and some easy parkour. At the end of it all is a sign saying safehouses.
    11. Using that to decrypt the last piece of text gives a loc name that when used, teleports you to the end of the puzzle.

  2. Not another one of these...
  3. You are doing me the confuse
  4. Let the games begin!
  5. The solution to this puzzle is incredibly complex and requires many steps in and outside of the game. The final solution benefits everyone so share any lead or clue you think you have found.
