slapdash Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 Key? Crypt? None of that is making sense... Of course, the graphics program I'm using only lets me blow things up so big, so maybe that has something to do with it...

MattyXB Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 I use only paint, and can see many things good. But the second text I can't read. Is me to small. Maybe something is get lost as I save the map as BMP? And I have no idea about anything I find. Key, Numbers, Binary Code, Screenframes, Poems, and Text. I find it, but can't do anything with it. That contest is to hard for me I think. I am happy, that I found the first riddle. But that all harder then anything. But it was and is a very funny contest at all. Now I see how much you can read in the map, what noone see at the first time.

slapdash Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 I may have found a very odd "box" code, but damned if I know what it means. I also found some more "numeric" codes maybe, and I may have overlooked part of another due to bad eyes and/or little contrast in the image... But I'm still a bit stumped at the moment...

slapdash Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 Okay! Deciphering one now! (The Braille one). Still no real clue on the others, but they can wait for now.

Does your box code look like this? code: XXXXXXXXXX XXX... X OO OX X O XXXXXXXXXX XXX... Contrast was the key to 8 hidden things I found One is the contest text, and then there should be 3 questions and probably some hints to find the questions.

slapdash Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 That is NOT the box code I refer to, though I found that one before anything else (that's why the 1-4 & 6) references above. Okay, so far, I've found what appears to be a question in Braille, though it doesn't quite make sense. I've found the boxes you speak of, and am assuming that it's Morse Code (barring that, ASCII), but I can't get the contrast such that I can read it. I did find the text with the URLs/details. I found this "box code" but have no clue how to decipher it, though it reminds me -- a little -- of a code I knew when I was a young'n. No sign of "crypt" or a key or any hints so far.

iguana Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 I can not read it either but i know there is some words. the code can not be braille since braille is based on a 6 dot box and not on dot and dash, that is mores but like i said i could not come up with anything in morse so it must be something else.

slapdash Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 That's the thing; the Braille I found doesn't sound right... What I thought was Morse Code I'm now thinking isn't; not sure it's ASCII either. So looks like I might be stumped again there. No clue on the box code... No clue about the treetops...

TheYoungProgrammer Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 I'm stumped. I use a program to look at close objects and animation frames and I still can't find anything. Can Pitfall Harry give us a clue to think of next or something. Plus, above the manual looking picture of Pitfall Harry swinging on the vine on the Pitfall map page, there seems to be some x's and t's.

MattyXB Posted May 15, 2002 Share Posted May 15, 2002 I don't know if someone already found it. But here what I found at this moment. The Harry Pitfall.gif in the maproom has a G on his T-Shirt. OK, now I have found the post about this. This is an animated gif. I have not see it, because only the letter changes. I have no programm to watch gif's in every move. So I have try to make screenshots, but then I have only one color in the T-Shirt. I have look on other Pitfalls (micropitfall.gif and BigHarry.gif) and found nothing.
