wow, didn't think of that.. awesome
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Are your contests announced anywhere? It sucks when you see it too late to have a decent chance at winning.

R1CH you should get a lot of keys, its really cool that intelligent people are winning rather than just lucky or popular people.

Yeh I really LOVE these kinds of puzzles, as soon as I saw it my brain just went into lockdown and I can't do anything else until I've solved it.

The answer was my beta key minus 3 letters so someone else couldn't grab it. grap the RGB values in paint.net and throw them into a hex>>ASCII converter, I've claimed the key now + you won't get the last 3 letters.

I was waiting for the rest of the contest to be posted, i suck with all this techy stuff
You make it sound like there's a correlation between what should happen and what actually happens. I mean, life is chaotic and it's often unfair. I know it is for me.

So you convert the RGB value to letters using ASCII? Like this, 89 71 75 -> Y G K??

Was it the hex color code into ascii = password?

I was looking at this and I was hoping to find a single "FF D9" (meaning the end of the img and the start of a hidden msg) but there was more than one, so I knew I wasn't in the right track

I already have a key, I just like challenges

I used an online converter here http://www.dolcevie.com/js/converter.html

I can't remember how HEX>>ASCII works, you'd have to wiki it.
