Hello everyone!

Thank you all for participating in my Tower!
Here we have some final remarks, and the solution of the puzzles.

1) Thank you.

Really, you were amazing. I created the place, but you filled it with life - your stories, your fight against the puzzles, your happiness when you found the solutions, your interactions... Thank you for sharing it. I went a couple of time across the whole tower just to follow your stories, and I enjoyed it a lot - so, if you enjoyed the tower at least half as much I did, I'm happy. :D

2) Why the event? Why now?

Since I joined SG, I was amazed by the puzzle events created by some users, and I wanted to try it myself, after studying a little their techniques. :P
I thought this would be a nice period to do it, since it was near both to my birthday and my first cakeday.
In the end, I chose the worst period for me - I was so busy, I could sleep less than 5 hours per night - but incredibly I was able to manage the tower, and everything worked well. Magic. :D

3) Solution to the floors

Ok, now to the main part.

1. The first floor was a simple nonlinear maze: 21 floors, by going forth you could only reach 7 of them, and then you got back to the start; when you went back, instead, you could reach the other "groups" of 7 rooms. Yeah, just a not-so-complex way to connect the various rooms. And in some rooms you could find the 5 letters and numbers needed to get to Floor 2.
2. The second floor, and its mirrors. A nightmare. The mirrors were a place to hide some cryptography. The first ones were simple: with an odd number of mirrors you just had to exchange the order of numbers and letters (aB6->6Ba), while with an even one nothing changes (aB6->aB6). Remember - this logic of inversion will be present in all the floor. Now we get stranger mirrors - "deforming" mirrors. The hints are given through a friend, the little Ted E. Bear. If the gets bigger than you in the mirror, it means that the dimensions (of the letters) are exchanged! So aB6->6bA. And if you have an even number of these mirrors - nothing happens, aB6->aB6! The next deformation step (concerning numbers) is more tricky, as it is a symmetry based on my keyboard: numbers are, in order, 1 2 3 4 5 | 6 7 8 9 0. The symmetry changes 5 to 6, 8 to 3, and so on. Adding to this the fact that we have a mirror (thus another symmetry), 85->63. And we also had a combo of the 2 steps. Finally, a new kind of deformation: all letters were changed into numbers, without any deformation (only the mirroring). Capital and lower letters are shown by the X cases. So aB->1x2X.
3. Quite simple is this floor: 6 rooms can be easily found following the stairs (that connect rooms in a semi-random way). But if you look carefully at the links of a couple of final stairs, you will find the hidden passage to 2 more rooms! In these rooms you find the 2 parts of a teleporting tool, and if you analyse the source of the text through your browser, you'll find some letters attached to the 2 parts of the device - put together, they will bring you to the next floor!
4. Carbonara! Hungry and without any new ideas I was. Anyway, the images hid a letter each (if you just place your mouse on it, it should pop up). 5 rooms, 5 images, 5 letters -> next floor!
5. Paintings hall in similar to carbonara one: links were hidden in the images ;)
6. Just 2 rooms here: plain link to get from one to the other, while the passage to the next floor was hidden at the end of the youtube link.
7. Just a jijidi to get to Skyrim!
8. Ok, that was a joke. The tower ends with Skyrim, great! But that GA ended 1 year ago, sorry for this :P But more interesting, here you get hints to find the special Baba room! You have a glass hammer (and a 3 letter/number code attached to the word, like before with the teleportation) and 2 images with other 3 characters each. If you know Skyrim, you know what is one of the images: the Wabbajack. The tool of Chaos. And he was here just to bring Chaos, together with the Mace of Molag Bal. They were useless, in the search for Baba! Instead, the GLASS hammer was meant to be used on something made of GLASS: one of the windows on the 1st floor, that was hiding the remaining part of the code. Easy peasy. :P

I hope you appreciated it! Any feedback is welcome, in order to be able to create a better event next time! :D
