Great contest, I must have figured it out when I said I got a different range of numbers when I was connected through the VPN. Can't believe I got a master degree of computer science T_T.
Thanks anyway for the contest, it made me take my biggest break ever at office lol.

Yeah. These kinds of things should come with a "DISCLAIMER: You have to be an IT-guy to be able to solve this."

Next one will require you to be a damn Rocket Scientist or Nuclear Physicist.

OH WOW.

So like.

WTF IS a source port. and netcat? And how was all of this simple??

Because you know, not every one who plays starcraft is a super IT tech nerd.


Gay contest.


P.S I know I'm not the only one who just found out that they didnt even have a chance at this beta key challenge.

I varied my port numbers and it didn't do shit.

Maybe I thought I changed it (using utorrent to do it because I am not LEET)

Contest 3 wasn't that simple if you asked me, this is more professional IT people skills that are required.

It wasn't hard. Now that we know the answer it's quite simple. We just lacked focus and misinterpreted your vague hints. Providing a better sense of direction and clearer hints for #5 will give a make for a less frustrating contest.

No we just don't know wtf a port it or how to change it.
