Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 
I noticed on the KOP website that the checklist is supposed to be released today. Any idea when that's coming?

ALSO:

On the game manual website, this file was posted in the team updates section.
The url: http://frc-manual.usfirst.org/upload...1356551911.pdf

It was created on 12/27/2012 at 10:33:09 PM.

There's a lot of threes in there.

What are those supposed to be? They both appear to be 2 page blank documents with page numbers on the bottom...

I imagine it to be a test page, and it could be nothing more. It just seemed like a piece of info not in the thread yet.

I am impressed with your self controll not to mention "Water Game!" after your anagram. (The implication is good enough.)

The file is linked from the Team Updates page:
http://frc-manual.usfirst.org/Updates/0

It looks like it was uploaded for one of two possible reasons: As a stand-in that will be updated later when updates are made, or as a test to make sure the system was working as expected prior to kickoff.

Here is the file that is currently standing in for the game manual. A similar situation.

The anagram idea may or may not hold some merit. Here are several possibilities:

RING, HITLER, RING.
HE DOES DRESSES.
IS A WATER GAME.

It's frustrating to see those 2 blank pages! They should at least have a picture of Rick Astley in there.

They're probably just test pages. After looking at the raw PDF data I found this signature:

Code:

/URI (http://www.tcpdf.org)>> /H /I>>

Do we know when the actual game manual (encrypted of course) will be posted yet? I saw somewhere that it was today but only can find the blank manual and the decryption test.

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 
Has anyone tried solving the number sequences by say letters and a word generator, possibly creating a sentence. Only comparison I am thinking of is Morse code. Any help would be great insight. Also what was Hint 2 if the numbers were Hint 3

It'll probably be posted sometime later today; recent blog posts seem to come later in the evening, so I'd say we can definitely expect it to come later today.

Re: 2013 ACTUAL game hint!!!
 
Has anybody made any headway with game hint 3 and also what was game hint 2 if anybody knows.
