Here I will be making a very... interesting puzzle, you will need to know your history to solve this enigma I've set for you to get the key.

Best of luck to everyone! I look forward to seeing if anyone can figure out how to solve it :3

Hints will be revealed every 10 minutes!

Also, check out and subscribe to my YouTube and Follow me on Twitch, I will be doing some streaming eventually, whenever I can get this sodding laptop to play something with OBS xP Saving up for a real gaming desktop might take a nice chunk of summer or longer.

Edit: First person to solve wins it all XP the prize is a key that I couldn't make a giveaway of (yay for old freebies XS) so ya XP I'll be using this same kind of puzzle for sure for alot of other future giveaways though!

I have been thinking that maybe he meant that he will be using puzzles with a key for the first solver, so maybe he will post the solution after all :)

Yes, I've been on SteamGifts for a few years as well and haven't seen it used before. I always like to see new puzzle ideas, especially those related to cryptography.

That being said, I am getting a little frustrated with Q4. I'm not certain of the answer nor that I've set things properly based on the instructions given in the question. The two unknowns are making the guessing process very time consuming. Can you give any hints about Q4? I assume the answers for Q3 and Q4 are related, correct? Could you say how many words are in the plaintext answer for Q4?

Hey that was cool even if I didn't win anything. Glad I didn't have to relive my cryptanalysis training. Pretty easy once you find the right tool.
