well, I solved it.

It is a pixel map (RGB values), and the resulting image is that famous poster of Uncle Sam pointing with the "I Want You" slogan.
Below that is the following URL:

I did not save a screen shot, sorry.


You're my new hero. I didn't even know where to start.

It's really bugging me...like, 8 bit 3D or some shit...

Also, by searching the guy's name in that first email pic, I found this: https://twitter.com/Ricexal and through that, this: https://twitter.com/bplentier

Edit: Aaaaaand just realized they have both of those in the contact page of the avecira site, along with: https://twitter.com/Avecira

i tried to zoom in on the image to see if i could get a closer look at it, in doing that it became clearer for a second ( for me anyway, probably because of slow internet) so i zoomed in and out a bit more but i didn't find anything.

EDIT: i got a response from "Avecira Solutions" about the door puzzle

this was my message to them choosing to take something out of the first door:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
If i send my assistant into the incorectly labled "lunches" door (i will call it door 1), and they bring out an item such as a unicorn, then the real "free lunch and unicorns" door has to be the one labled "unicorns", and the one labeled with both items must be the lunches only door.

So the doors (in my theory) are in actuality suposed to be:

Door 1 (incorectly labled "free lunches") is really: "Unicorns"
Door 2 ( incorrectly labled "unicorns") is: "free lunches and unicorns"
Door 3 (incorectly labled with both items) should be: "Free lunches"


their response:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hi #####(my name),

Thanks for your answer! In your example, what if the assistant brings you a free lunch (from door 1)? In case there are free lunches and unicorns in the room, he/she chooses either one randomly and brings it back to you. You can get only one item from the assistant and then you have to do all the reasoning based on what you received. Hopefully this clarifies the problem.

Which is the same as the one Beth already posted, and has been solved already. Question is, do we tell Richard... As I said, I'm all for helping out the bad guy to see what their side is.

Tallulah got a different message, however, which,

Make sure you find some other righteous and skillful people to help, because this is a task noone can do alone. I will explain all this in the following messages. As you see I'm able to write short passages at a time. It's a limitation in the non-causal messaging exploit that we haven't been able to overcome yet. Just stay alert, the world needs you!

Damn, you beat me to it Very Happy hiya TBelle!

Here's my reply from mr CEO

[/quote]
Dear Jen (you don't mind if I call you Jen, do you?),

First of all, I don't mind if you call me Mr. E.

Thank you for contacting us regarding the three doors problem. We are constantly looking for skillful problem solvers and therefore we placed the ad in order to find the most skillful people around the world. If you prove to be one of them, you could be very useful to our company.

The puzzle is designed so that you should be able to solve the labeling of all doors just by sending the assistant to one room and seeing what he/she brings back. Therefore there is no additional help the assistant can tell you.

BR,
Richard

Not the answer I was looking for, but hey, contact was made!
