edit: Four people have solved it! But two mentioned trouble finding something. If you got far enough to wonder where the something is, you may already have it. Not every eight-character thing lives on itstoohard.com - some are at P_______
. :)
There's no point giving a hint for the "Npao ao" stuff, it's a substitution cipher. You've seen them before. And I didn't even do any nonsense like make "J" the most common letter, etc. If you hit a road block this early, save your energy for a better giveaway... :)
Ok, all 18 who reached "Random Quotes" solved it. :) It's not supposed to be hard, it's a hint for the next part in case you don't recognise it.
Is the E..... M......
stuff the annoying part? I'd look for a download, since not all the online things work properly, or let you adjust whatever. Don't know where people are getting stuck, but perhaps "IkJ1Y2hzdGFiZW5rZW5uZ3J1cHBlIg==" will give an important caveat for this part. I'm guessing it's easy to overlook something here and miss the prize. Good luck! :)
Ok, puzzle is over, sorry everyone who didn't win! And sorry for everyone who didn't find the Dragon Age giveaway - but surely you'd rather be playing Fortix anyway! Explanation is up in the forum topic.

Thanks

I give up already. It doesn't help that it is almost 7AM, and that I have been up all night, lol. I will try this once I wake up though, since it looks interesting. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Don't worry, my brain is stretched to the limit, which means I've probably screwed up somewhere and it's unsolveable... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
LOL

Gave up too translatet the first one but there wasn't anything helpful wtf?
Comment has been collapsed.
Good luck! There must have been something in there, since most people got stuck on the next part... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks!
Comment has been collapsed.
This is why I always click on forum links, even if I already have the game. :)
Thanks for the puzzleway!
Comment has been collapsed.
Good luck, hope it works! :)
I'm new at this puzzle junk, can't tell if it's too easy or too hard. Probably too easy for the puzzle masters, and too hard for the bums like me... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I just decoded it, onto the next part.
That was nasty, I don't like you any more. ;)

2 hard

Sorry! Will try to make a better one next time! :)

Thanks!

thanks
Comment has been collapsed.
damn. are you sure your encryption is correct? :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, I'm falling asleep now, so any help I give would be wrong. :)
Everything seemed correct when I tried it an hour ago, but I will take a fresh look tomorrow. If nobody's solved it by then, then I probably screwed it up and will have to fix whatever's broken... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
It's correct, just very difficult. At least, the first one is, if that's what your referring to. I haven't cracked the second yet.
Comment has been collapsed.
TY!
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks. Are you hiding another giveaway? :p
Comment has been collapsed.
You know how it works, check their profile when you find a hidden giveaway, see if there's any more... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Solved the first puzzle I encountered, there was already one solver... Not sure if that was you testing or if I'm trailblazing. :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Probably just me making sure it worked, but somehow it always works for the person creating it... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I just can't figure out the settings for next type of encryption :(
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok, somehow still awake here, tried everything from scratch and it seemed to work. It's possible in my ignorance I made a mistake creating the whatever it is, and repeated the mistake to test it. Will have to take a look tomorrow when I'm awake... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't think you made a mistake, just the settings seems unclear to me.
Comment has been collapsed.
same, so far. i'm certain I know what type of encryption it is, but it's not used here regularly, so I'm not sure if I have the details right to solve it. I'll definitely check back in the morning though. Either way, thanks fifty! :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I went further than I normally would, downloading programs to solve it. No luck though so i'm gonna flag it there. Already got DA:O anyway, as you (godprobe) know. :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok, not quite awake yet but here is my try for a hint "IkJ1Y2hzdGFiZW5rZW5uZ3J1cHBlIg==" ...
Comment has been collapsed.
Well... I learned a little more, haha. That's about it though.
Comment has been collapsed.
Think I'll try giving some more explicit hints when the timer's run down, unless someone finds it before then, of course. :)
Suppose it's a common worry for puzzle solvers though, i.e. do I want to spend any more time trying to solve this thing, when I'm not even sure it's been made correctly. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm sure you did it right, just never seen one of these used in a puzzle before, and figuring it out is complicated.
But that's just me, maybe there will be some who can set it up properly.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm, now that you mention it, if I had entered someone else's Fortix giveaway and found this thing - not sure I'd bother... At some point it's easier just to buy it... :)
At least I don't have to worry about anyone giving it away... :) But I'll feel bad if I need to remake the giveaway without this tricky part... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep. There's a reason this kinda thing spawned a whole industry. If this is something that's fascinated you for years then I guess it makes perfect sense (EG all the info is there) but I can't spend two days studying historical literature to do it myself. :p
Comment has been collapsed.
Ahh, sorry... Might give some better hints when there's not much time left, just to frustrate the maximum number of people... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Aha, you did it, nice job!

thank you

Thanks for the giveaway! :)
Well, now, that's a weird looking code after the quotes...
Comment has been collapsed.
Thought I was being clever but after a bit of google hunting it seems I'm far from the first to try this here... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, i know what it is, but all I find is German pages with explanation... And I do know a bit of German, but not enough for deciphering this! =P
Comment has been collapsed.
I'll try to cook up some better hints, but in the meantime, hmm, don't try so hard... :)
There's a wonderful something out there that basically gives the whole game away, and it's in English.

Thanks for the Fort, the lines of letters is quite beatiful :p

thanks for fortix! I suck at puzzles, gave up after 10 minutes

That's the spirit! It's probably just another Fortix anyway. :)
