I still think the guy named 'Quick and Simple' needs some credit for not F5ing like a retard, and actually finding a solution which made some sense.

R1CH should just have these contests every few days and award R1CH points to winners. New league spawned from StarCraft: R1CH's Puzzle League

Excellent contest! I went through so many things trying to crack this one up, these cryptomakers, algorithm and whatnot. ><

And reading the replies just above me, how can you people be so negative about not winning
was a really witty contest even though I have no clue about ports or stuff like that!

Mad props to R1CH!

Someone like R1CH would of learned most of his knowledge by reading the Internet. I am sure he has some sort of formal education, but his academic learning would of been dwarved by his online learning.

Why are you guys raging? There's been 4 keys given out to these clever puzzles. 15 keys were just given out by taking a picture of yourself with a piece of paper, 10 were given out just by writing in a thread the other day, another 10 in IRC. Not to mention all the keys in the scavenger hunt and FFAs. Just look at the numbers and think about them.


I wasn't complaining about the puzzle only being solvable by IT-people (and the puzzle + the hints were very clever), but about it not having a disclaimer saying so. I wouldn't mind key contest for the first person to post a video of themself doing a mactwist 1080 in a halfpipe, because I would know I didn't have to waste time trying to do it.

Believe me, there has been ample warning.

You are right, that is a valid argument. Being a veteran lurker instead of a casual lurker would have been, and should be an advantage. My apologies, and I appreciate any free opportunities to win a beta-key.

Hehe you should have done some power-googling. You deserve an e-hug from the winner.

But the tech geniuses have no shot at challenges like "post of photo of you and a girl under a traffic light" from the scavenger hunt. Overall it balances out.


They could just have their robot gf do it durrr

I'd They'd still have to go outside.

Hahaha, so true. I don't know why people are complaining about the "biases" in these contests. It's not like they're intended.

Or are they...

FYI my username is an abbreviation of "Hamster Of Death", my old moniker from my AoE2/Starcraft days (before Brood War came out...). I pondered the pig picture clue for ages and didn't get it....

Hint #3 would have been awesome if your name was"Hamster of death".

Another cool contest. Thanks R1CH. When the keys run out I hope you have more just for fun. I was close to getting this one. I just didn't know how to change ports. Now I know

This one was extra difficult because I was listening to day9's daily at the same time.

i was so happy when the contest ended that i woke up my sleeping girlfriend and saying that i may have finally gotten a key! she was so happy and thought we can finally sleep peacefully without refreshing cvg, fb 24/7, and tl.net for contests. unfortunately, it was false hope! someone coincidentally just had to come up with their solution the moment i threw mines in! =(

back to the refreshing of many windows. good luck on future contests all!

Well, as so many people say, the original game will be released before I'll find a key :D
