60 Token Puzzle Contest

almost 6 years

Welcome all to my newest puzzle contest based on the hit show Escape the Night! Nine puzzles await you but you'll need your wits and smarts to solve all of them. Here's how this is going to work, each puzzle has it's own google doc, once you solve a puzzle you will have the password for the next puzzle, and you can verify if you are right or wrong by clicking the link to the google form and typing the password in, if it's right you have access to the next puzzle and so forth. There is also a little story line that goes with the puzzles and that helps tie everything together. The passwords will be WORDS, will NOT contain numbers and will be LOWERCASE WITH NO SPACES. I will give out clues to the puzzles if people happen to get stuck, but clues will be given out in a timely manner so please don't expect you will get a clue right away if you are stuck. You may work with other people but only the first person to complete the puzzle hunt and "escape the night" will win the tokens.

I will post the 1st doc which has an introduction as well as the first password tomorrow evening as I ran into a technical problem which I need to fix tomorrow when I get off work. I do promise that the contest will start tomorrow evening and not a day later, get excited and get ready to Escape The Night!

And let the contest begin: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dXUFibqk4WhCrNnwNd3uqUwNKI7R6ZtIjWnQbWCHbfc/edit?usp=sharing

I did not realize that at first and even though I got POD’s pm I saw people asking questions and working hard on the puzzles and I give everyone a round of applause for doing so.

As I pmed LHarney, you can basically cheat by inspecting the google docs and it will tell you the password

I fixed the link so it should be working now, and as far as splitting the prize like Isamel asked, I can do that if it's what the winner wants to do.

Can we split the award as 20 tokens and 20 tokens with a partner? (with same monetary value as 60 tokens to one person)
