Rules and details

• Upon subscription, you are presented with a codebreaker puzzle. A number of hints have been provided in the form of guesses, along with the number of symbols in that hint that are in the correct position (in green) and the number of symbols in the hint that do appear in the answer, but are not in the correct position (in red).
  • Note that symbols are only counted as correct (either in the correct or an incorrect position) as many times as it appears in the answer.
• A (simplified) example puzzle can be found here, and its solution here.
• To submit, provide the correct symbol combination as a single line in the 'Submission Text' field, using the regular letters A through H. You only need to supply the final symbol combination, intermediate steps are not required.
• A translation table between Aurebesh and regular letters can be found on Wookieepedia and elsewhere on the internet.
• The solution for the example above would be "BBDD".
• Submissions will only be accepted through the 'Submission Text' field. Submissions through files of any kind (including doc and pdf), and external links will not be accepted.
• Please note that a personal puzzle is provided to each participant.
• Placement is based on the fastest correct solution (fastest being shortest time between subscription and submission). Ties are broken by fastest submission time counting from the competition's start time.
• This competition is graded blindly, and the site keeps track of the author of each submission, This means including your name or PIN in your submission is not necessary and even discouraged.
