I'm not able to view code from my phone. Had to open my laptop

>>51706513
A diary for every cosmic event of every year observed between 2008 and 2107 (I know...)
>>51706382
i removed the image in paint and saved it as a txt file

I would like to solve one of those games at least once in my life.
Even if there's a big "fuck you" at the end of it.
>>51706275
>>51707106
read it backwards and its a slightly messed up rendition of
Hail to the hydra
>>51707106
So that means
Hardy to the destination, Hardy to het destination, Hydra to the destination, Hydra to het destination
>>51707096
To hail the hidra?
>>51707027

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgtBc-p2zrs
>>51707127
>>51707139
aight so with this >>51706513
hail to the hydra makes sense.
but it's not accepted as a passphrase to unlock the crypted pic
>>51707190
The passphrase is empty, otherwise you wouldn't have seen the embedded text file. Just extract it.
Since someone shared the password, it has changed, however the cipher wasn't found, so that will remain the same.
>>51707229
Oh that's right im dumb as brick.
damn it boys.
0/10 OP Key is changing now.
>>51707190
Have you tried camelcasing it?
>>51707230
What password?
>>51707230
What password la?
>>51707255
Tell us ! What do you see?
Fucking shit, I just had it. Now the site's offline. It involves a second stego, that all I'm saying.
>>51707318
Well thanks to >>51707229 i extracted it.
There was a zip file disguised as txt.
>>51707346
Okay, have you unzipped it? :D
My god, a new challenge is up now?
>>51707369
>>51707346
http://magics.io/images/deepwithinyourmind.jpg
A puzzle piece has changed, the cipher remains, the results are different.
>>51707368
the zip contains future.jpg which is another crypted picture.
future.jpg is https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XjeMIgs3faw/maxresdefault.jpg but deformed (i don't know how you say that in english, it looks bad, artifacts and shit)
>>51707400
CONFIRMED ALIENS
>>51707393
okay fine youre literally nofun
Im not good at this stuff youkno
>>51707425
I'm Satan
I'm in.
>>51707565
you've done it with the insideandout or the deepwithinyourmind picture?
>>51707565
If you share the code you dont get the prize.
>>51707609
>implying you know who shared it
fag
>>51707609
okay okay okay we understand
>>51707578
With the deepwithinyourmind pic.
It's just stupid invitation to join slack.com
>>51707609
You've no idea who shared it you gigantic fucknut
>>51707400
Could you look whats in
http://magics.io/images/deepwithinyourmind.jpg
?
I tried to compile steghide from source but no luck (osx).
>>51707609
I won't, but what do I need to share then? I hate to sign up for a Slack user account...
>>51706336
What? Can't view source on your phone? What kind of fucked up phone or browser are you using?
view-source:insert website
>>51707622
>It's just stupid invitation to join slack.com
Oh wow.
Thanks for saving my time.
But slack isn't invite only, is it?
>>51707665
>>It's just stupid invitation to join slack.com
More than meets the eye
>>51707622
>>51707665
Couldn't it be an invite to a particular slack channel?
>>51707665
>>51707706
Yes I was wrong. It's worthwhile to sign up and check you prize. I didn't feel like it because meh... But i got it now. Can't divulge what the prize is though
>>51707695
Aight, I got a string of characters (26 to be exact).
The site tells me the token is wrong.
Is there anything else I forgot about?
>>51707794
its encrypted. Find and break the cipher using a little code.
Huh that was fun prize was worth it, wont say what it is but its worth a few $$ :D
>>51707880
the string of 26 characters in a textfile is encrypted?
Well fuck me. I have no idea what to do next.
>people on an anonymous image board won't say what the prize
Shameless self shill pls.
>>51707960
this
>>51707960
Just because you're an idiot doesn't mean we should ruin the fun for everyone else.
>>51707960
I could but I don't think you'd believe me
>>51707880
>>51707924
God bless for Gravity Falls and ciphered messages in every episode.
The image you get from deepwithinyourmind.jpg
is called stab.jpg and is the same from the first Hercules image.
>>51708074
You installed ubuntu VM to get the steghide working?
lmao
jesus christ that was easy took me like 2 minutes
three tops
>>51706446
That whois command will keep my entertained for the next while, thanks anon.
Also bump for interest.
>>51708348
Challenge appeared legit in the end. Try it out.
>>51708340
Liar.
This challenge will end soon. Those who arrive, survive.
MPAA, RIAA, & FBI Are apparently not welcome :'(
>>51708566
Googling intensifies.

As a member of the FBI this hurts my feelings.

WHAT IS IT?

super easy
>>51708735
>>51708735
screen or it didn't happened
What is all this anyway. Bored dudes trying to find a password to some rando site? What am I missing here?
I found the 26 characters inside stab.png but where does those lead?
>>51708839
>>51708905
if you can't figure it out you're retarded. read the thread.
>>51708880
There's a prize, it's a crypto challenge.
>>51708905
You're not done yet, almost.
Jesus Christ this is lame unlike Cicada. The prize isn't worth it.
>>51708927
No one has mentioned anything further from this
>>51708928
Dammit it can't be hidden anymore
>>51708962
what the fuck did you get from cicada?
>>51708984
ask yourself what does that text look like (obviously its not the correct code)
>>51706397
Hail Hydra?
>>51709007
initially I thought it was a .onion site, but I've been starring at it so long I've no clue anymore
>>51709066
try harder fag
>>51709087
IM GOING INSANE
>>51709140
literally re read everything about this challenge
>>51709140
You're trying to hard. Think of an easy solution for this one.
What am I missing? All I see is riddles and images.
Dudes dont cat the file it turns your PS1 to chinese lol
>>51709207
blow your brains out
>>51709164
if this ends in "the game" i will commit sudoku
>>51709183
now im thinking harder
im jumping off a bridge nao bye
That was actually pretty fun, and the guys who made it are pretty cool. Also if you cant solve it from hints above you dont deserve in.
After all of that stag shenanigsns it gets you this string:
xfievaoxtbxobdlapxjlkdjbk
>>51709234
Brains splattered on wall now what?
>>51709296
Now you solve the fucking puzzle
>>51709207
>using cat to display a file
>>51709246
Was that ironic? Jump of an aquaduct. *hint*
>>51709291
>xfievaoxtbxobdlapxjlkdjbk

The last file embedded in it is a text string

>>51709327
You shared what you were suppose to keep to yourself, now it changes, again.
>>51709309
>>51709327
You guys spoiled the whole thing.
stop posting the answer you dipshits
we'll just change the challenge
>>51709327
you won a new challenge!
>>51709346
>>51709347

time to an hero if I can't even get this.
for shizzle I'm usually good at this stuff, maybe because 3am?
>solve puzzle
>enter key
>invalid key
>ctrl + F key in thread
you dumb mother fuckers
Because people keep posting the answer, the answer now has two ciphers in this version.
>>51709362
dude i tried it before posting didnt work
OK since the cipher has changed, can someone please fucking tell me what the last one was so I can at least sleep without it bugging me?
>>51709387
>since the cipher has changed
It hasn't. Just a samefag trying to shit up the thread.

>>51709403
>>51708003
Don't you need a key though??
So I found the H***H****W*A**... key but it doesn't work camelcase, upper, or lower case. Is it dead?
IT CHANGED AGAIN FFS
>>51709700
well, shit
can someone who got it outline the steps now that it's allegedly changed?
>>51709726
this
>>51709726
1. collect information.
2. think hard.
3. find the key.
4. enter the key into the box.
Works every time even when the puzzle changes.
>>51709671
H***HydraWeAre
Each new letter of a word will be capital if we base ourself on the camelcase protocol
>>51709745
Find Man's Ass picture
use steno tool to find shit
?? Maybe figure out some crypto to decrypt string?
I wrote this one, here's my hint: It's just like DE:AD:BE:EF
Okay so there are two images now and the head tag now contains:
<!-- Two methods to achieve one answer.-->
?!?!?!!?
>>51709767
But how did you collect and use the information. I realise that there are some techniques being used here. I'd like to know what they are. I get the cipher stuff. But what tools are you using to extract files etc?
>>51709825
You did this to yourself.
>>51709767
i replicated it with the previous methods, but now the image is a PNG and can't extract?
It changed again FUCK MAN YOU GUYS SUCK SLOW IT DOWN
this is now there?!?!?
>>51709864
there is another image
>>51709825
True.
What the fuck is this. I'm confused.
>Venture to a time where horses flew and men slew mighty beasts
Does this mean ancient greece or some shit?
>>51709881
hah, i needed to refresh the page :0
<!-- DE:AD:BE:EF--> is now in the html aswell. :O
Linus is on it
>>51709881
i got it but not working?
When someone enters it change he says ... 23 mins ago
When someone releases it publicly it changes.
wtf do i do with the cyphers
>>51709881
what was the deal with the camelcase? does that apply somehow to the string i've found?
Thanks everyone for participating, submissions are now closed!
>>51709989
what do i do with this?

>>51710002
omfg jackass now he's going to change it again
>>51710002
Cipher changing. You guys can't work together.
I hate thos LTT dipshits i posted it
If you post ANYTHING linux related it gets deleted
they are cancer, they are the butt of the tech community
got 3 accounts banned there
>>51709984
This is the most retarded shit I've ever read today.
>>51710028
Yeah might as well just wait now.
>>51710033
Dude i decipher it it does not work
When the code changes the html gets changed aswell guys. (it did not change.)
>>51710028
i dont care what the puzzlemaster does. getting to that point is easy
>>51710033
Unfortunately so, you are very dedicated.
>>51710028
also you talk like a teenage girl you dumbfuck
>>51710060
You didn't. But posting any part of the message is grounds to change it.
>>51710092
Dude i destag 2 files and extract a zip there is nothing more to it

I think of the puzzle-makers is telling us to refresh? https://twitter.com/luigiplr/status/673338078908452865
Changed
I think it has something todo with colors.
steghide doesn't support png
>>51710261
Red?
Confirmed: <!-- Red truly is the key.-->
Colors.
Okay so the guy who owns the domain is Louie this guy has a name of Luigi: https://twitter.com/luigiplr
and has been dropping hints i think its the same guy.
>>51710333
Scroll up a little, that was already said

Luigi is Slack shill. The award is 6 months of free Slack Pro or some shit for your team. Fucking useless for a NEET like me.
>>51710278
this
>>51710373
i already assumed that being that there is new information in the source code, but no new pictures. it has something to do with hexadecimal and colors obviously, but i'm still at a loss.
gonna go burn one and think about it for a sec. hopefully the fucking thing doesn't change again in the next 5 minutes
>>51710366
I'm in, there was none of this promised "Free Slack Pro" but there is a lot of notable developers in here...
>>51710366
Don't derail, there are a lot more people involved in this.

fucking chrissssssst
>>51706446
isnt it illegal to provide false whois data
>>51710445
says who?
>>51707096
clearly viral marketing for captain America 3
based on the DEAD BEEF and CAFE BABE references, and RED
i think it has something to do with java / oracle
>>51710445
WHOIS saying that?
>>51710421
I'm honestly surprised more people didn't get it
It was pretty easy
>>51710460
You must be fun at party's.
But i dont think its todo with BEEF i see alot of B64 data inside the R channel but there is something else.
DE:AD:BE:EF is what's in the source code
>>51707393
>changing rules in the middle of the game
0/10
>>51710509
The rules change every time the riddle is solved.
>>51710488
That would require more people to be retarded. Contrary to popular opinion, that is not the case here.
Unless the reward is money I do not give a fuck & I certainly won't spend one hot second solving some random garbage an auitistic shitskin cooked up because he was bored & friendless
>>51710568
Hints or get out.
>>51710568
This
The fact they have not put any ads on the site amazes me. We need more people like this.
>>51710568
i feel like as we are sitting here thinking about how much of a waste of time this is he is just reading about himself being called an autistic shitskin with the most smug shit eating grin

He's not the originator of the original though. That guy was spanish.

I'm >>51708910. I just posted a new challenge which should be pretty entertaining into the pipeline. Enjoy!
>>51710756
Only two of many know the final answer.
>>51710763
Did you even look at the github repos? the original team shut down and the app was garbage. This dude made the app the amazing thing it was before it was killed :(
>>51710790
yah and got SUED for it.
>>51710790
>>51710763
Yea, the original team shut down after like a month. Luigi and a few others kept it going for like well over a year until they got sued.
Guys lets hire Luigi to make a new one.
