Our latest pasttime on IRC is a game located at http://www.relpats-eht.com/. Check it out if you're bored and if you happen to get the first answer, toss it onto the end of the url. Ex. http://www.relpats-eht.com/page1.

We're currently on page 7, have fun.

Edit: You might want to try it on your own before reading the rest of the thread unless you want solutions

So what exactly is the first clue?

Look for something that isn't common in a paragraph like that

I suck at these things

Something isn't right in that paragraph, it just doesn't make sense, take another look

it makes sence to me...

something completly random....

is it like a word in the paragraph or somehting

This will probably throw you completely off, but try to remember the forumla for the area of a circle, then re-read the first 5 lines of the paragraph.

Nope, you're right. It also has to do with the answer from the last one. Just remember that.

I'm on page 4 also. I should be doing homework right now though so I will leave it at that and start 4 when I am finished

damn, 4 is hard, i'm lost

* Chrono slaps page 5 around a bit with a large trout.
on what page are you already ddunk?

I'm on 7, almost done with it. Which one is page 5 again?

... That’s another thing I’m tired of, why do I keep giving you simple words like quake and model as directory names, I think it’s time to get a bit more cryptic on page 5.

The one where he complains about simple clues, like page 2. If I recall correctly.

what about page 4 i'm still lost

Is page four the one with a lot of mistakes?

yeah

Look closely at the page. The mistakes mean a lot and so does the past. Put 2 and 2 together and you get the key to the next page (don't take this last sentence literally).

dude, i still don't get iti've been looking at if for an hour

2 and 2 don't want to go together

Look at the mistakes, collect what should be in them (in order to make the words correct) then re-read my clue above. You should be able to get it.

ahh, we got it now

as for page 5 hmmm

Page 9 \o/
11 now, 9 and 10 were hella easy \o/
12... ZOOM.

My brain isn't working, it's 7:30am and I'm just staring at the first page...

Maybe I should actually read it

i'm stuck on 5 now

I'M ON PAGE 2.

traxor > dspunk

I'm also having trouble with number 5. I'm not familiar with encryption at all, so I have no idea what to look for on that one or what to do with it once I find it.

I'm on page 3, and something tells me that I'm not going to get any further today.

School time folks .

i'm on 6, and it looks hard to me

Never mind. Got page 5. Took me a bit of searching since I'm not familiar with all that.

Now 6 is screwing with my head.

Alright, I'm going to bed. PM me if you have any questions and I'll try to answer them before school. If not, you get to actually work them out on your own. \o/

Psh i'm stuck on 7.

we got 6, but 7 looks damn hard

send me a pm, and we can all work on 7 on MSN

i couldnt get nº5 =(

hey chrono want to help us on MSN?

EvilSeph (Microsoft MVP) dice:
lmao
Chrono dice:
so i know that if i get past page 5
Chrono dice:
ill get stuck again eventually
EvilSeph (Microsoft MVP) dice:
lol
Chrono dice:
so fuck the dodgy game 

Chrono is a giving up type of person .
I'm up to 11, if anyone wants a clue.

we;ll all mostly up to 11 now, ans stuck

* Eljay is on 5 and complete stumped

There are key words. "quake" "model" "cryptic" "page 5"
Think about encryption.

well i got into thinking it was md5 so i tried md5ing stuff but couldnt find anything that works...

* Eljay might go the way of the chromo


edit: am i anywhere along the right lines?

Yes, keep trying

yay got it!

now page 6 is just... blegh

its obviously a number pattern but thats as far as ive got


edit: i guess using "shear" instead of "sheer" as a typo is purely accidental?

Nice error he has there. Lee, google the numbers.

level 8's the easyest so far

"Here is the riddle:" where?

LJ: the hint is that there is nothing there.

Vilkku: get a periodic table.

arg level 10 (the one with the equation type thing) is a nightmare
im pretty sure i know what its on about but nothing seems to match the password

It's a year, well two years actually. However, it's not as simple as it seems.

Spoiler:

Use a periodic table

yeh got that one, last one is loads of html hex thingies and i dont think anyone has done it so meh

yeah, 12 is hard....

On page 4, noticed some missing and mis-typed words. Thathave anything to do with it?

I am already there just cant figure out what to do

I can't get the clue on page one even.  Yes, I know, it's sad.

me niether, spoiler for page 1 anybody? lol... i think it has something to do with the dates...

ya, it is. just write the numbers out by themselves, see what it looks like

i have... ive been staring at them for ages

think special math numbers

... and math constants. ya might need a " . " in there somewhere.

I'm on the last question, so I would be willing to provide help to anyone who is stuck. send a PM

http://www.cusatours.com/Day%20Trips/O/apple%20pie.jpg

lol! what about pie....

i mihgt be able to do high level degree level calculus but i suck when it comes to problem solving i suck eggs

The one that equals 3.14159... is spelt "pi". "Pie" is a foodstuff that a certain cartoon character is obsessed with.

mmmm pie.... got pie?

So I guess no one has finished the final one yet ? Im still stuck there

so is everyone else

i guess people have given  up on this, or does anybody have ANY clues

I got absolutely nothing

Turn it into RGB, isolate the G channel, decrypt it... and you get a story about how the stapler guy got his nick, but nothing beyond that.

I don't want to convert each one

It will take to long

Maybe time can give me the answer

ok, i got all the G values, now how do i convert them

they con't convert from hex to ascii to spell anything

I can't get past fuc**** N.o 1!

i have no clue how to decode this

Ive isolated all the g channels, and analysing the patterns, heres what I found.

43 is a space.
106 is an a.
66 is an I.
37 is a period.

Thats all there is that has enough proof backing it. Time, if you could verify this, or give me the first word, it would be alot easier.

If I take this to school and analyse it over and over again, I might eventually solve it.

(Im also thinking 100 is an o, but im too tired to remember why I thought that)

I'm still stuck on level 7.

afaik, its a block cipher so simply working out what each value represents wont work because blocks of the original are encrypted not each individual char (that would be a stream cipher)

Whats that binary number thing on 4 I tried ascii, hex, oct and dec conversions but nothing. Thats all the conversions i know

Madman, some help on irc/msn/pm please

Take a good look at the usage of 37, it is ALWAYS used as the final number in a sequence of numbers. It is also the very last character in the sequence. And Lee Jeffrey, Im affraid that is not the teqnique we are using, we are analysing the usage of the numbers in the encryption to indentify the character they represent.

I'm still stuck on the last page.

Bah done

Now im on http://deathball.net/notpron/ its tougher and longer ..... i think there are like 138 parts and its good

need help on page 4.

oh good lord, I'm so confused by page 10. I know its a set of years, and I'm hoping that 7 - 5 has something to do with it, and I've heard many people say that it has nothing to do with the revolution. Is there anything I'm missing? Any hints much appreciated.

Just translate ludus from latin to english and you are done.

Btw, tis old. I cant believe people still havent finished it. If you want more of a challenge then try solving http://notpron.com
I gave up on 16 I dont have time to solve more now

Just a note to anyone who wants to solve the notpron puzzle, you better note down all the url's, usernames and passwords cause you will be needing it

Just letting you folks know:  There is now a SECOND relpats puzzle at the same site. 

I am gathering people to solve the "final" page 10 here:  http://relpats.orospakr.ca/
