Game Hint #2: An easy to figure out hint that gives a password to the game PDFs, but the password unlocks a fake version of the manual, leading to the greatest red herring in the history of FIRST.

That would be AWESOME! However, the manuals would have to be obviously fake if you read over them.

Or at least like those tests that they used to give in school on following directions where the first direction is to skip all the questions and go right to the end. Make one of the rules be that these rules are not real.

Not really all they have to do is "accidentally" post an "early edition" of the manual, then drop the hint #2 knowing that eventually we would try the password on the old one. The manual could be perfectly believable up until the day of kickoff when a completely different game is revealed

Or have made the decryption test file the red herring manual. Oh how that would have messed with people if they thought that they screwed up and released the actual manual.

Agreed


I liked 2008's IR sensor chip hint that was sent to us in the mail. It was pretty fun to get something physical and personal that we could play around with. I hope one of these hints is something like that.

Still, I am awaiting the second hint with bated breath.

I have been searching "2011 game hint #2" every 5-10 minutes since this morning. I am having extreme difficulty waiting for the next hint!

Rumor has it the next game hint will be out in about 10 days.
