However, this would have been too easy, so the output was encoded with a substitution cipher, rot13: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rot13 If you decoded that, you would get the following message: "Alas, you have stumbled down the wrong path. Your efforts are not in vain, you just have yet to realize your true goal." Revealing that the text was merely a diversion. The only other thing in the post was the banner image. If you opened it up in an image editor and flood filled the background, you would discover a message hinting you onwards. If you then opened the file in an image viewer that supports metadata, EXIF, etc you would see a PNG comment message telling you to PM me on TL with a code to claim your key. You could even open it in Notepad to see that it says "Starcraft II", indicating something inside the image .The winner in fact did not manage to decode the text, but was looking at the image instead. i'll be honest. The only thing i understood in your post is that it is written in english. | ||
