Yes, but we've had the explicit information to NOT brute force it.

I don't remember seeing explicit OP info not to, just a post or two about a general rule. I stopped myself a few times because of those postings... error on my part Wink

Actually she did. The OP posted a picture that said "DO NOT BRUTE FORCE" as one of the rules of the ARG so it's pretty insufferable to make brute forcing one of the key goals of a task.

Ahh thanks. I saw this a few days late.
I think one should be allowed to bruteforce. It just depends on another skill to 'solve' the puzzle.



Brute forcing will get you nowhere if the games is rigged.....
