First clue up 04:15 KST

Instructions:
In the course of the next hour 4 assignments will be posted. The first 2 people to complete the task will receive one beta key each. For each assignment, every participants is only allowed to post once. Editted posts don't count (so make sure you get it right).

Clue #1 - 04:15 KST
E-Science ~ Thinking outside the box
At Liquipedia we try to figure out every bit of info about the game. The question you'll have to try to answer for this assignment is: Does Ensnare affect the Rate of Fire of a Sunken Colony? (The answer is not on the wiki)
Figure out how to Ensnare a Sunken Colony, figure out whether it's slowed down and post here providing a Yes or No answer and a screenshot of the ensnared sunken. Also save the replay - in case you win we'll want to see it.

Answer: Yes. You can get an ensnared sunken by ensnaring the Drone before morphing it. Of course ensnare will wear off before the sunken finishes so you'll have to use cheat codes (which, of course, you can find on the wiki

). When you've done that you'll find out that an ensnared sunken does indeed shoot slower. Interesting! :o

Found by Zozo and Nevz - Checked and approved. You guys should come work for us

Clue #3 - 04:45 KST
Come visit us on irc! - We're a jolly bunch n_n.
Everyone so afraid of hitting that edit button...

Answer - Go to the Liquipedia IRC channel - the info is on the Liquipedia Main Page. The topic is "Corruptor". Go to this article and hit "edit". In it you'll find a hidden math puzzle. Figure it out and query the answer to Flicky on irc. Note: Visit us on irc != Go to #tl and harrass Pholon. >_<

SultanVinegar and zyax - TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH EY

Clue #4 - 05:00 KST
Execution - What do you do with all this knowledge?
Make an account of iCCup starting with the tag LP and get it to D+ (transferring stats, of course, not allowed).
Post here when you're done. Provide a link to your profile and the name of the last person you beat. Also save the reppack - we'll want to see if if you win.

Thanks everyone for playing, congrats to the winners. We're getting the keys to you asap,
