I assure you that not a single typing error was made 
Put on the right 'glasses' and you'll see.
[ooc] This is a 'test' for a long series of 'events'. It might tank, so be it. But I'd rather risk trying out something new and see it tank, than never have tried it at all. [/ooc] BIG Lottery

Edited by: TornSoul on 11/12/2003 10:45:35 Guys - Please keep your posts in plain text. You only have to do *one*, I end up having to do a zillion 
Plain text will allow others to read your comments as well, which again might make them interested enough to give it a go. (and I'm sure the forum mods will appriciate it as well )
2-3 days more before the next one (depending on feedback), which wont be particular hard either, but will involve a bit of ingame thingy as well. BIG Lottery

No worries - the ingame is 'only' about finding some (needed?) clues. The actual 'work' you should still be able to do at work  BIG Lottery

Edited by: TornSoul on 05/01/2004 22:13:17 Edit : #2 EDIT: whooops, the last part of this post has been altered in order to correctly reflect the hints dropped. It doesnt change *how* to solve it - only by a 'degree' ;) And the message is/was solveably(sp) regardless. -----------
For now I'll keep this to the same thread.

Edited by: TornSoul on 15/12/2003 14:29:37 No way you did it that fast... (Yes I do know you did ) Not overly hard - but still....
Respect!
And yes - it's entirely solveable without the ingame hints. They are just that 'hints', not keys 
Expect to see one a week - if interest holds up. Some might be more, how to put it... rewarding, to solve than others 
Gonna ramp up the difficulty as well (again depending on feedback - dont wonna loose everyone 'cause it gets too hard) BIG Lottery

Absolutly - 'Injecting noise' is a long used 'tactic'. I'm saving this for later (except the unintentional typos )
My general purpose is to keep this pretty simple for starters, to get as many as possible 'hooked' on it  After that I'll ramp it up  BIG Lottery

This one was supposed to appear last sunday - But I've been busy - x-mas and all
But here it is for the x-mas days if you have some time to spare 
It's an ancient cipher - which at first can look hard, but it really isnt
Have fun and merry xmas

Edited by: TornSoul on 29/12/2003 16:37:21 Edit : hrmf the profanity filter is a bit heavy handed
It could be because of the holidays, or indeed because it's to hard that noone has c.racked it yet....
I'll give a clue...

reading the text horizontally etc
Close - very very close  (please remember that the text i posted is one single long line - I merely put in a few linebreaks 'at random' or the forum would simply display it as one *very* wide line - as the forum does not linebreak very long 'words')
We'll see if that is enough clue or not. (I actaully think it's too much - but hey it's xmas ) BIG Lottery

Seems this one is a bit too hard for most. Doesnt bode well for the 'finalÚ'...
And it *really* is dead simple - once you get the right idea.... 
I'll try one more clue... Kinda hard without giving it all away... (Just goes to show how simple it really is )
Lets see...
Nope.. cant think of anything without giving it all away... BIG Lottery

Edited by: TornSoul on 05/01/2004 22:15:16 Briggi if you solved them as fast as the forum timestamps indicate - I'm truly impressed 
Ok Ive edited all the puzzle posts to include a number - ie. #1 #2, #3 as ppl are answering on them in all kinds of order now  Mostly so ppl can see that there is more than one. BIG Lottery

Edited by: TornSoul on 15/01/2004 14:45:59 OK 
The next one will be posted on Sunday.
Factoid: 16 ppl have c.racked #1 9 ppl have c.racked #2 4 ppl only have c.racked #3
As I've hinted at before - I already have a 'grand finale' planned - which maybe (no promises) would have a BIG fat prize for whoever solves it first. But!, only those who has solved *all* of the prelim puzzles will be elegible for the (possible) prize.
So get c.racking ppl  BIG Lottery

This is an polyalphabetic substitution cipher (google it) which makes it very very hard. This particular one were regarded by many as practically unbreakable for 300 years. But ~150 years ago a method was found....
I've made it a bit easier by keeping spaces, capitilization, punctuations and using a lot of text  But I honestly dont expect any to break it. I'll drop a couple of hints as time passes...
Enjoy

O M G.... You two blow me away... Even with the hint about it beeing poly, you still have to find the key etc... Yes there are heuristics to do that but *still* (I think you'd have figured out it was poly real quick anyhow ;) )
I'm very impressed.
Damn - Now I have to come up with a new one alot sooner than I had thought - atleast to keep you two entertained  BIG Lottery
