Well, you all do whatever you like. But, I wouldn't send the answer and We should be the final judge on if he answered correctly or not. Personally, I think Bobby is Falthis. But like I said above, if we are going to send the answer, why waste it on quality puzzles just send any old thing.

If Roses are Red
and Violets are Blue
What color are my eyes?

So there's my challenge to Falthis.

Like I said, you all choose. If the answer has to be sent then I think Rogi and Macavity should make the choice. It's their puzzles and their answers. So unless you hear from one or both of them before the deadline, (Midnight CST) then make up something of your own and send it.

Sorry, I can't do that. You will need to ask Macavity and Rogi about that.

A couple suggestions-- I might've mentioned it before, but could we send Bobby the answer files zipped/encrypted using the answer to the puzzle as the password? In that case, Darren, you can send in at least Rogi's riddle, since I think he posted the answers zipped way earlier in the thread. I don't remember if the enigma puzzle was posted with zipped answers.

If you don't hear from either Rogi or Macavity, you can also always go with that vigenere you came up with for our first challenge to Falthis.

Go ahead and send the Enigma as I trust Sylvia's analysis of both puzzles.

I'll assume the rotors, steckels and plugboard were setup using something other than the default in whatever tool was used to create the puzzle.

As for sending the answer in a zipped file, just use upppercase, lowercase and a number somewhere in the password and make the password longer than 8 characters.
Unless Falthis has a spare mainframe laying around, that'll take around a month to brute force.

You have to give him the riddle, the method, and the answer too? Wow. I give 10 to 1 for the opposition. Is this a gambling site?

quick thought
RE: Enigma

My thoughts - if it is not too late...

We only have to provide the solution before the time limit is up. If you want to send the enigma - we have 72 hours to get the answer provided to Bobby. It never said the answer had to be provided at the same time as the puzzle.

there is one problem

I have the solution to the enigma but I do not have the answer to the question that Macavity posted here http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=438178#438178
Quote:
P.S. - If you solve the enigma, tell me where I got the message from.


Other wise I could put it in a password protected zip file and send it to you. I will PM the solution to Rogi and if he can get the answer I will let him put it in a zip file for you.

So, hang on.

Another thing, why is Falthis the only one allowed to make rules. What about our rules.

and NataS, LMAO, that was hilarious.

edit: I just saw your post jjocke, that sounds like a good idea and would give Macavity a chance to reply.

New from bobby, though i still had a question to ask him...im not sure if we can send in the answer later than the riddle

Quote:
Bobby: How goes the preparation of the challenge?
me: its going well, we have three riddles and we are trying to decide one
however some of the riddles creators refuse to let me or you know the answer to the riddle...they believe that you or i may something to tip falthis off
Bobby: Ah Good! Although as judge I must remain neutral in my final judgment. I still pray that you all put Falthis in his place
me: so do i...
Bobby: hmm.. that could be problematic
me: however, we do have a backup if none of the creators do give their answers, so no worries
though it is not as in depth, it is challenging none the less
Bobby: Well with their being a direct answer given to a neutral party i.e. me, it should stop Falthis from squirming out of this one and actually force him to give the real answer
Sent at 12:25 AM on Monday
me: yes, i understand how it is beneficial, however a few others seem to have some doubts
but only a few
Bobby: they doubt me I assume?
me: im guessing it is not you, so much as sending answers by email
which can be traced, found, etc
they dont want falthis's eyes to find the answer through devious methids
Bobby: I have managed to stay under the proverbial radar so far and my PC along with my personal files are not looked into
I walk a thin line here though
So it may not always be so, BUT for now it is safe
Tell them not to worry
me: okay, i will contact them right away

EDIT: PLEASE HURRY IN GETTING ME THE ANSWER!!! I ONLY NEED THE ANSWER OF THE FIRST PART AND IT DOSENT EVEN MATTER ANYMORE IF IT IS ZIP-ED. THANK YOU Very Happy
