TASK ANNOUNCEMENT: Triwizard Tournament


screengrab

CYBER SCAVENGER HUNT- STRUCTURE
1. Round 0:

For the heist, you need to recruit 3 people who are extremely improtant for the skills they bring. They have been part of the security design system and hence bring with them the necessary aids.


2. Round 1:

Eliminate the obstacles. Certain obstacles need recruits. So unless you have the recruit specific to that obstacle, you will not be able to proceed. In other words, the people you recruit in Round ) have associated obstacles to eliminate. You can open up levels corresponding to the recruit you have but not corresponding to the recruit you do not have.


3. You shall have the final location of the coin. The first team to get the final coin WINS.

ROUND 0 - Recruitment
The bank heist is not an easy task. You would need to recruit the three of the most capable men in this profession to aid you.

The round consists of two levels:

First level will give you the name of the person to recruit and second level will let you actually recruit the person in question.

Like I said, we need these 3 to break through the security system.

If you successfully recruit any of the three, you can proceed with the obstacles that this recruit can help you with.

For other obstacles, you will have to recruit relevant person and only then can you unlock the levels.


The last post on this page, is the spoiler thread. BB will give hints as and when required.



Rules:

if team A posts the answer, and suppose it gets a reply from me after an hour. And the other team posted their answer after team A ( let's say 30 minutes late), then they would get the answer from me after 1.5 hours.

Essentially time difference shall be maintained to the best of my abilities.


For answers, when i spot the correct answer ( that is you have to say/ submit this is your answer)...I shall send the PM to that team confirming their clearing the level.

Any doubts..plz ask.


PS: Amanat, since you won the bonus task and had the count of three...therefore, you will get a benefit in two rounds. You can choose any two rounds throughtout this journey ( mind you there are a lot of rounds.better keep them for later)...to benefit from the bonus.


Either an additional clue will be given to you or the answer- depends.



How to play:

Solve the puzzles...google up..think hard...use your prior knowledge about everything..also, anything can be a clue.

2.

3.




221 be d first and only country code if you wish,

But you still need the address to track.

Traveled from Australia to Russia, further to Kazakistan and then to Bulgaria and finally reached Ethiopia. Tried to confuse us and mix us up. But, but the street shall be found.

The street will be bumbling with people. I have been there. I remember hearing someone say Ark...I think..sounded like that..Noah's ark..but why?

By the way, piece of advice

"First come first serve"...the lady will shout...and you know you are at the right restaurant on the right street where everyone comes...at least once. Do remember, hunch comes first and is usually correct.

Given how dedicated and smart all of you are, i will skip the next round and straight away give you the last round...which by the way has been changed.😆

Congratulations team,

You have done great.

You have successfully hired the three great men and they have agreed to help you out.

Last night they broke into the bank to obliterate all obstacles to reach the final area where coins are hidden.

Unfortunately, some mole told the police about the break in and the three men are in custody now.

So , you are all on your own.

It is a set of 9 coins. Find the coins.

DO IT ASAP. You don't have much time.
