Sure, unless you want to wait for Fujek to OK you posting it.

I do not know how often he checks our forums (in the past he had some problems) so here you are:

Xa/b

X = can be N (nick) or T (title)
a = number of post in this topic
b = says which letter (including spaces)
- = next character in code
+ = continue to next letter to get character code

So, for example, here is second row decoded:

N21/4+T21/7+N3/5 -T75/1 -N81/5 -T81/5
S(GhostQlyph)+I(Dream It Dead)+X(Fenixp)-B(banned)-K(ChickenHero)-U(New User)

You're welcome!
~scratches head~ Either I am becoming too dumb, you too smart, or you're getting an idea of how weird my mind works. I'm not sure which of these alternatives would be good :p


~laughs~ That was supposed to be my second hint!
Am I correct to assume that the range of numbers gave it away? I kind of did choose the last one as high as possible on purpose, but wasn't sure if it would make things too easy since it refereed to a posting on the same page and the number would be somewhat prominent.


I'm always fine with that. Once it's solved it's solved ;)
Those who want to continue riddling can simply skip on the spoiler and there's no competition left once it's redeemed.


The '+' sign was always used for expressing numbers (e.g. S+I+X -> 6), since unfortunately the only numbers in your names and titles were the ones not in the dumb code!
Evil GOG and evil GOGers! :p

Or my mind just works in similar way to yours. :P

:D

Yes. After many searches for the correct code / cipher I've spotted that "528" is strangely similar to my post's number. But still it required many changes in my thinking to get final answer. I wasn't sure what T and N means at start - I was checking different possibilities like "N means it is a number in final code", "T means text so it is some letter from the post", "+ means I do not need to check letters just count the number of +'s to get number". Even after I've got their "real meaning" there was still one more surprise to include spaces to get final letter.

BTW: weren't you afraid that some of users could change their title so the final code could become unsolvable? :D

I think the odds would have been very low, given that I intended this to take only like 1-3 days.
I was more afraid of having typos or messed up somewhere. With that kind of encryption it's a massive bugger.

Now I need to think about a new form to tease you folks!
I had one ready, but that hit a technical difficulty wall.

I keep getting Invalid when I put it in, not sure why.

ME too

:P

This isn't a GOG code is it?

It also isn't backwards or mis-arranged, nor is the title in the link part of the code.

It is a GOG code (can you get Septerra Core anywhere else?), but just keep in mind that this isn't the ninja thread - this is the slooooow thread :o

I've tried slow and that didn't help. Whatever the issue is with the code it's not obvious, and I've already tried substituting part of your link into the code since that was about the 5th thing I thought could be the secret.

Well whatever it is, it's clever
All I see is Septerra Cor 12345
