It isn't necessary to have the full version of the game to participate.
As Erik said in the first post, you don't even need the full version. Therefore, you'll only need the first three levels.

No, but I guess I'll give out five rank points to anyone who works out my system. There's two systems going at the same time...

Three points to RuAdam for having an awesome avatar. (Mentioned so people trying to figure out Matt's system will know that he wasn't the one giving those points.)

That is the awesomest avatar I've seen in a long time! And if you watch it long enough, eventually Beethro escapes the serpents and goes down some stairs. Nice!

But B0rsuk, I designed this contest just for badgers! They are good at rooting around for secrets and sniffing them out. :(

Oh well, maybe another time.

And I was fairly confident that b0rsuk would participate, since he always does well at these things.

You can see them in the original message, but they won't be revealed until the preset time. There is a special "unhidetime" tag that only show text after a certain date. If you are interested, the exact times for the clues are (in Pacific Standard Time): 11am 4/18, 11pm 4/18, 11am 4/19, 11pm 4/19, 11am 4/20.

-Erik
Erik, the times you've set the "unhidetime" tags to reveal the messages at don't seem to be the same as what you've said above. From what I can see, the first tag will be revealed at 11am, GMT not PST, which is eight hours behind.

Are you sure the tags are correct?

Yeah, looks that way. I don't want to fix it myself, because even if I edit his post I can't see what's behind the tags...and thus I won't know if any changes I make to the time accidentally erased the hints. :?

It looks like he used "localtime" for stating when the "I'm in" stuff ends, but just the normal "unhidetime" for revealing the hints, which I guess needs to be in GMT to be accurate. I don't know if I've even used those tags so I can't remember if you can do an "unhidelocaltime" tag or not. Anyway, it's up to Erik to fix it, otherwise the clues are going to be revealed at some very odd times for people in the States. ;)

Game on,

Okay, I fixed the times. Thanks, Agaricus for the warning! Sorry, to anyone who was anticipating that the first clue would be revealed later and planned around it. At least I can tell you that the 1st clue is not terribly useful.
