Leaked E-mails

Gibbet: Wrong Subject

On Wednesday 16th November 2005, Perplex City players who had completed the set of four blue hex cards were sent an e-mail congratulating them from the Academy.

However, it seems that the Academy's e-mail system managed to ''leak'' some internal e-mails at the bottom of these e-mails sent out to players. Each player so far has received a different e-mail fragment. They are arranged below in date order.

The top portion of the e-mail reads:

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">"Dear [player name],

Congratulations, you've solved a set of four Perplex City cards. We've rewarded you by [[Leaderboard|doubling your points]] for each of the cards in the set.

Your Perplex Point total is now ''[total]''. You have solved ''[x]'' cards.
We in Perplex City would like to thank you for your continued dedication to our cause. With your help, we are certain that the Receda Cube will be found and returned safely.

Sincerely, 
The Puzzle Scribe Team 
Perplex City Academy"</div>

Then follows an error code:

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">
"f8080:xx95034 
internal error academail 
criticalerror 420 
error-authconflict 
error-redirect 
error-handover 
error-output 
fatal-close"</div>

From 20th December 2005 it appears as if some of these emails have been sent again, although at this time they don't appear to be related to the actual solving of a set (i.e. although the email refers to solving a set, no card was solved at the time the email was sent). The resent email has an additional header at the start of the mail as follows.

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">
Failure in Centre for Reality Research Sandbox Mail Transport Daemon (daemon 
subprocess 3ea5). Mind Candy unavailable. Final resend attempt follows. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------</div>

Wave 4 cards appear to have new e-mails associated with solving a set of cards. These e-mails start with an error message like the following.

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">f90fmvvc9m239v-2;23f-000112academail

I've been reviewing all of our procedures, and I can't find any red flags at all. You're right, though, this wasn't a case of transmission corruption, as we do see evidence of this same tampering in our finals, though not in any of the earlier versions at all. I've checked back and seen some differences in the finals from the previous waves, as well. It must have slipped our notice before. I'm gravely concerned about what this could mean.

Leaked E-mails

2006-08-28T13:04:39Z

Gibbet: /* Internal Security */

On Wednesday 16th November 2005, Perplex City players who had completed the set of four blue hex cards were sent an e-mail congratulating them from the Academy.

However, it seems that the Academy's e-mail system managed to ''leak'' some internal e-mails at the bottom of these e-mails sent out to players. Each player so far has received a different e-mail fragment. They are arranged below in date order.

The top portion of the e-mail reads:

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">"Dear [player name],

Congratulations, you've solved a set of four Perplex City cards. We've rewarded you by [[Leaderboard|doubling your points]] for each of the cards in the set.

Your Perplex Point total is now ''[total]''. You have solved ''[x]'' cards.
We in Perplex City would like to thank you for your continued dedication to our cause. With your help, we are certain that the Receda Cube will be found and returned safely.

Sincerely, 
The Puzzle Scribe Team 
Perplex City Academy"</div>

Then follows an error code:

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">
"f8080:xx95034 
internal error academail 
criticalerror 420 
error-authconflict 
error-redirect 
error-handover 
error-output 
fatal-close"</div>

From 20th December 2005 it appears as if some of these emails have been sent again, although at this time they don't appear to be related to the actual solving of a set (i.e. although the email refers to solving a set, no card was solved at the time the email was sent). The resent email has an additional header at the start of the mail as follows.

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">
Failure in Centre for Reality Research Sandbox Mail Transport Daemon (daemon 
subprocess 3ea5). Mind Candy unavailable. Final resend attempt follows. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------</div>

Wave 4 cards appear to have new e-mails associated with solving a set of cards. These e-mails start with an error message like the following.

[[Garnet Reed|Garnet]] stayed with me in the police station. He came to see me and talk to me. He helped me find good defence lawyers.

Leaked E-mails

On Wednesday 16th November 2005, Perplex City players who had completed the set of four blue hex cards were sent an e-mail congratulating them from the Academy.

However, it seems that the Academy's e-mail system managed to ''leak'' some internal e-mails at the bottom of these e-mails sent out to players. Each player so far has received a different e-mail fragment. They are arranged below in date order.

The top portion of the e-mail reads:

Congratulations, you've solved a set of four Perplex City cards. We've rewarded you by [[Leaderboard|doubling your points]] for each of the cards in the set.

Your Perplex Point total is now ''[total]''. You have solved ''[x]'' cards.
We in Perplex City would like to thank you for your continued dedication to our cause. With your help, we are certain that the Receda Cube will be found and returned safely.

From 20th December 2005 it appears as if some of these emails have been sent again, although at this time they don't appear to be related to the actual solving of a set (i.e. although the email refers to solving a set, no card was solved at the time the email was sent). The resent email has an additional header at the start of the mail as follows.

Good news to report, sir. We've finally achieved a good accretion rate for the material, and we should be able to amass the desired concentration by sometime toward the end of the month. If all goes well, this means we should be able to begin trials of the device by mid-June. Provided, of course, that we get those last bits of gear you keep promising.

==Summary==

After discovering that [[V]] called someone at the [[Academy]]'s [[Crypto|Crypto Department]], [[Caine]] heads over to Crypto to investigate. He runs into his friend [[Neville Clark]], who is [http://www.theoozezone.com/archives/2006/06/dolor_sit_amet.html talkative], if obfuscating. The Cube Hunters entice Nev into sharing more information by giving him a [http://www.theoozezone.com/archives/2006/06/cracker.html puzzle], designed by [[User:jbd|jbd]], to solve. Nev takes the bait, and gives us a [http://www.theoozezone.com/archives/2006/06/cracked_1.html backdoor] that leads to a gridded file system.

Dragging the commands onto the grid to create various configurations yields a series of log snippets. Some of the logs resemble the [[Perplex City Errorlogs]] that were found before the [[puzzle cards]] were released.

The interface can be accessed at the following URL:

http://events.perplexcity.com/gateway/commandinterface/index.html

As of 12:36, 1 July 2006 (PDT), the puzzle is still being worked on. Join us in [irc://irc.chat-solutions.org:6667/#syzygy #syzygy], or see the discussion on the [[Talk:Backdoor|Talk]] page or at [http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=15627&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 Unforums].

==Commands==

Through the combined work of '''jalapenodude''', '''pelrun''', and [[User:jbd|jbd]], #syzygy has determined that the commands appear to work as follows:

The program pointer starts in upper left corner.

Directions:

<pre>
popen - east
pread - west
mount - se
pwrite - e
switch - se (Are you sure, goes NE on config 5 below?)
copy - s
flush - s
</pre>

All of these can go funny in certain circumstances, especially when next to an edge where the next command would normally jump off the grid.

'rotate' does something different depending on where it is executed, but also (sometimes?) where it comes from. Here are some directions that occur:
<pre><nowiki>
e e e e s
s ne n n s
e n ne n s
ne n ne n s
ne n ne n n
</nowiki></pre>

However, it is possible for r3c5 to go north if entered from the west, for example.

The same goes for 'zone':
<pre><nowiki>
e e e w s
s w w n n
e e e n w
n w w n n
n w w n n
</nowiki></pre>

'end' ends execution whenever it gets hit on a specific error message. It is very good for testing where the code is going.
'cache' seems to only work as an end point.
'run' can go anywhere that the program pointer isn't reaching.

==Configurations==

Here are the various configurations and logs that have been discovered.

====Config 1: Smart Dust Cameras====
'''Configuration:''' zone, mount, run, rotate, rotate/ - - popen, zone, cache

====Config 6: Gatehouse 24====

''Configuration:''' Zone Mount Run -- -- / -- -- Copy Switch Flush / -- -- Pwrite Rotate Rotate

'''Command Path:''' zone, mount, copy, pwrite, rotate, switch, rotate, flush

''Alternate:'' zone mount run switch flush / ---- ---- pwrite rotate rotate

'''Command Path:''' zone, mount, pwrite, rotate, switch, rotate, flush

(The original configuration runs in the order zone-mount-copy-pwrite-rotate-switch-rotate-flush. The alternate configuration runs in the order zone-mount-pwrite-rotate-switch-rotate-flush. I merely managed to cut out copy, but because of the directional order of the code I had to change the places of the commands.)

Nb. it also works if you substitute Pwrite with Popen or Rotate, the same result is yielded.

When this configuration is run, a message '''Operation in progress''' appears. The screen then distorts and wavers. Finally, a log appears. Discussion on Unforums suggests that the logs may rotate, or appear randomly.

FROM: MANSOOR H.

Kiteway's programs are disrupting the entire department. Breeding hostility
and distrust among amicable colleagues. The man doesn't belong here anymore,
why can't he keep his damned pet projects in his own office? Crypto is mine
now, not his.

Well, here are the metrics to show he's not minding his own business.

Number of times Kiteway has visited dept. offices this year: 78

And in 268: 129

And in 267: 23

Dept. suspicion level on the Howe-Panntonin Index: 8.8

And in 268: 7.3

And in 267: 4.5

Suspect the man has his own agenda and isn't sharing with the proper channels,
for example me and you. Suspect he is subverting the time and resources of my
faculty without consulting me ahead of time. Behaving as though he can't trust
his own senior fellows. Ridiculous. How long must we put up with this childish
rigmarole?</pre>

==Historical Cryptographers==

Some of the names mentioned in the logs share the names of historic cryptographers and mathematicians.

; Bazeries : French military cryptographer, the 'pragmatic man of cryptology'. Famous for breaking the French 'Great Cipher' created in the 17th century.
; Porta : Giovanni Battista Porta, Italian cryptographer and inventor of the Della Porta cipher - a polyalphabetic cipher with keyword.
; Ashford : the name of the village in Kent where John Wallis, 17th century mathematician, was born. He wrote among other things, about the quadrature of curves, logic, theology and cryptography.
; Carrick : the name of a Windows-based encryption application, designed by cryptographer Bruce Schneier.

FROM: MANSOOR H.

Kiteway's programs are disrupting the entire department. Breeding hostility
and distrust among amicable colleagues. The man doesn't belong here anymore,
why can't he keep his damned pet projects in his own office? Crypto is mine
now, not his.

Well, here are the metrics to show he's not minding his own business.

Number of times Kiteway has visited dept. offices this year: 78

And in 268: 129

And in 267: 23

Dept. suspicion level on the Howe-Panntonin Index: 8.8

And in 268: 7.3

And in 267: 4.5

Suspect the man has his own agenda and isn't sharing with the proper channels,
for example me and you. Suspect he is subverting the time and resources of my
faculty without consulting me ahead of time. Behaving as though he can't trust
his own senior fellows. Ridiculous. How long must we put up with this childish
rigmarole?</pre>

London PCAG event

2006-02-27T13:07:14Z

Gibbet: /* Results */

'''Please add links to your photo galleries below! If you need a login, ask in #syzygy and someone will create one for you. Also...we ''will'' be co-opting photos for this page.'''

==General==
*On Saturday, Feb. 25, players gathered in London for the much-anticipated [[PCAG]] competition, the follow-up to the [[New York PCAG event]]
*25-35 people turned up for "Brunchfast", a pre-event social at [http://www.jdwetherspoon.co.uk/pubfinder/details.php?OutletNumber=333 JD Weatherspoon's pub] (though no one brought a pink balloon, the pre-determined identification symbol)
*Meanwhile, nine players and representatives crammed themselves into a phone booth at Trafalgar Square for publicity shots with a professional photographer (by the way, [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/arts/3162715.stm the world record is 14])
*Doors opened at 12 PM for signing in 200 individuals, broken into groups of six (38 teams total)
*After an introduction by [[Mind Candy|Adrian]], the games began at 1 PM
*Goods including t-shirts, starter packs, mugs and posters were available for sale
*Each team received one special, light blue PCAG bag, and every participant received a PCAG [[Leitmark]]
*The members of the winning team received clear cubes as prizes
*After the games concluded, the top 8 teams were taken to the London Eye, where they intercepted a conversation in morse code, flashed with torches on either side of the river
*Later, everyone retired to the Horse and Groom pub on Great Portland Street for social interaction lubricated by alcohol

==The Games==
*Teams received a sheet of questions to answer for points, and received text messages throughout the day containing trivia and spot challenges
**16 questions requiring observation from walking round an area of central London (a triangle between Leicester Square, Trafalgar Square and Picadilly Circus) that we had to text back to HQ for varying amounts of points (10-40). With hindsight the questions were in a good walking order, although those that did it backwards didn't get waylaid by the anti terrorism march and demonstration. (340 points)
**A special National Gallery section that gave cryptic clues for a trail through the gallery with a bumper 250-point question at the end to tempt us. Also to be texted. (370 points)
**Six photo questions that required you to MMS photos of your team in various locations (360 plus open-ended 5 points per letter photo)
**Two questions requiring you to be witnessed either singing as a choir or playing video games (180)
**Two questions that required you to compete against other teams building a biscuit tower or spelling backwords (60 plus open-ended 10 points per letter spelling).
**Eight trivia questions texted through the day (7x20 + 1x10 = 150)
**Three or four other tasks texted through the day, including choir practice, Wacky Races and a conga line
**The final task was to purchase the largest object possible for £1, with receipt
***The undisputed* winner of the biggest item for £1 was the [[media:Toilet-Paper-=-ftw!.gif|toilet roll]] bought by the CRT (Cube ReCoventry Team). With two 2-ply rolls for the bargain price of £0.95, and weighing in at an amazing 119.04 metres long, or 13.09 square metres in area, it truly was value for money! Toilet roll runs from left to right through the far doors in the photo and then some way up the stairs.

==General==
*On Saturday, Feb. 25, players gathered in London for the much-anticipated [[PCAG]] competition, the follow-up to the [[New York PCAG event]]
*25-35 people turned up for "Brunchfast", a pre-event social at [http://www.jdwetherspoon.co.uk/pubfinder/details.php?OutletNumber=333 JD Weatherspoon's pub] (though no one brought a pink balloon, the pre-determined identification symbol)
*Meanwhile, nine players and representatives crammed themselves into a phone booth at Trafalgar Square for publicity shots with a professional photographer (by the way, [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/arts/3162715.stm the world record is 14])
*Doors opened at 12 PM for signing in 200 teams, broken into groups of six
*After an introduction by [[Mind Candy|Adrian]], the games began at 1 PM
*Goods including t-shirts, starter packs, mugs and posters were available for sale
*Each team received one special, light blue PCAG bag, and every participant received a PCAG [[Leitmark]]
*The members of the winning team received clear cubes as prizes
*After the games concluded, the top 8 teams were taken to the London Eye, where they intercepted a conversation in morse code, flashed with torches on either side of the river
*Later, everyone retired to the Horse and Groom pub on Great Portland Street for social interaction lubricated by alcohol

==The Games==

Timeline:History

2006-02-26T16:54:14Z

Gibbet: Indeed it is 269 AC :)

===General===

Current year in Perplex City is 269 AC. Years are the same length as Earth years, with the same months and dates.

Years are designated with "BC" and "AC", originally thought to refer to "Before Cube" and "After Cube". Though with the [[Receda Cube]] only being discovered in 7AC (1744) this is unlikely. [http://wiki.incognitus.net/mirror/ppc/www.perplexcityacademy.com/29.04.05/museum2.html Cube History]

* See [[Calendar]] for more on this topic.

Also note, we know of a number of periods of time which have been referred to, though we dont have a good sense of when these happened. These include:
*[[Pre-Hausam]] period - seems to be about two to three thousand tears ago
*[[The War]] - took place just before the Modern Era.
*[[Parencycle period]] of architecture - took place around the early 100s, and includes the [[Milamont Theatres]]
*[[Resurgence]] period - seems to be about one to two hundred years ago.

*'''NOTE: Daffy889 has built a very sharp timeline over here:'''
** http://daffy.aglami.net/pxctimeline/
** While this wiki recognizes the strengths of his work, and we are quite willing to recomend all users refer to his timeline, there is also something to be said fFor having everything in one place. Users are encouraged to use his page as an impressive display with topics and references and all, and use this listing as a point of convenience.

Gillit Road

[[Image:Gillit subway.jpg]]

==General==

*Gillit Road is, itself, a minor road in the city.

*Of slightly more importance is the Gillit Road [[Subway]] station.
*It is an abandoned station.

==Discovery==

Careful enquiring (which we include here because it is brilliant maneuvering) revealed that the Gillit Road station is, in fact, within Perplex City:

Hi Kurt,
I note from one of the puzzle cards which you designed for us members of the
Earth CRT, that you are a bit of a player of "Mornington Crescent". As I'm sure
you are aware, the game is very popular over here also, and features many
different variations of rules and subtleties of play. I am looking into the
possibilities of a paper, detailing the main differences between the Perplex
City version, and our own here on Earth.

To this end, I am attempting to collate a list of stations which feature in your
subway system, but I'm sure that I am missing some. The information which I'm
going by, might possibly be out of date, so I was wondering if you could take a
quick glance over my listing, and perhaps give me a pointer or two about any
which I am lacking. I do intend to include a list of all stations used here on
Earth, including those which are abandoned or simply closed - so any which are
in a similar state on your side of the equation would be useful to know also.

Kindest Regards

Juxta

Hi Jamie,

You're correct in saying that I'm a fan of Mornington Crescent; indeed, I was placed second in the all-departments Academy Second Division Crescent Challenge 2005, and was only prevented from winning by a particularly nefarious use of the 'Reverse Triple-jump Cyclotron' (which, as I'm sure you're aware, takes advantage of the fact that the Perplex City Subway runs 24 hours a day).

Your list of subway stations is accurate - those are all the stations in the 'central' area (i.e., those used for modern 'casual games' of Mornington Crescent). If you want to include a couple of abandoned stations, I know there's one at Gillit Road, and another on Scope Road.

Cheers,

[[Kurt]]

Leaked E-mails

2006-01-21T00:06:07Z

Gibbet: /* Unknown to Unknown */

On Wendesday 16th November 2005, Perplex City players who had completed the set of four blue hex cards were sent an e-mail congratulating them from the Academy.

However, it seems that the Academy's e-mail system managed to ''leak'' some internal e-mails at the bottom of these e-mails sent out to players. Each player so far has received a different e-mail fragment. They are arranged below in date order.

The top portion of the e-mail reads:

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">"Dear [player name],

Congratulations, you've solved a set of four Perplex City cards. We've rewarded you by [[Leaderboard|doubling your points]] for each of the cards in the set.

Your Perplex Point total is now ''[total]''. You have solved ''[x]'' cards.

We in Perplex City would like to thank you for your continued dedication to our cause. With your help, we are certain that the Receda Cube will be found and returned safely.

Sincerely,

So why won't he just allow her to do her Cube research then? It seems a perfectly sensible request - she's head of Natural Sciences, one would have thought it was her field of expertise.

It's not my fault. I simply mistook the contact. The contact gave the
appropriate response to the feeder line and correctly completed the
third element. I barely gave anything away before realising the error. She
didn't appear suspicious. Contact correctly identified within two

Honestly, I can't believe [[Aiko Entrescore|Aiko]] had anything to do with that! I'm surprised you're being taken in by what is obviously a piece of spiteful misinformation. And even if it is true, surely it would be logical for [[Aiko Entrescore|Aiko]] to be particularly motivated to bring the [[Receda Cube|Cube]] home, rather than wanting to transport it to another world?

That today would be a good day to go back home and call in sick a bit later.
Fortunately for you, only Von and I are in the office so far to see your
telltale fingernails. My advice is, cut them as short as you can and use
McWhirter's Reliable Remover. Old fashioned but it works. It was a nice piece of performance theatre, though.

He has been a member of the defence forces of this city for many years, has assisted in the capture of numerous criminals and has been awarded every one of those "chest full of medals" for distinguished service.

[[Garnet Reed|Garnet]] stayed with me in the police station. He came to see me and talk to me. He helped me find good defence lawyers. And when I was released, he switched apartments with me, so that I didn't have to deal with all that media for a while. OK? That's what he did for me. Come back when you've done as much.

The "is Kurt dead 'humour' file"

2006-01-18T21:15:23Z

Gibbet: Update

The following is a result of tension built-up from the lack of hearing the outcome of [[Kurt]]'s visit to [[Gillit Road]] and includes 'work' from many of those over at UF and on IRC. If I have missed any classics then apologies, and feel free to add them.

==Disclaimer==

Reading the following content may cause uncontrollable mirth.

However more likely effects include grimacing, cringing and madness!

You have been warned!

==Schrodinger's Kurt==

Kurt is alive.

Kurt is dead.

These are the two possiblities

Schrodinger's Kurt describes the suituation where both are true.

Naturally getting an update from the POLT will cause this theory to break down as it will in effect be a measurement altering the result!

==Puns==

Death would certainly Kurtail his career.

It looks like it could be Kurtains.

If this situation resolves itself nicely I reckon it could be adapted into a brilliant Kurtoon series.

He might have been Kurt red handed as it were

I'm going to the European Kurt of Human Rights.

I hadn't realised how disKurteous I and my fellow pundits had been.

I just hope PXC won't be needing to issue a death Kurtificate anytime soon!

If he dies, is it a Kurtastrophe?

We Kurtinue to speculate.

==Limericks==

There was a young man called Kurt

Who ended up seriously hurt

To Gillit Road he went

By the Earth CRT sent

And now his body lies in the dirt

Oh a Wednesday full of gloom

A group gathered in a chat room

Is Kurt dead?

Is what they said.

Yes he went up in a boom!

Kurt went to Gillit road

As this is what he was told

When he got there

Information they did share

It was worth its weight in gold!

One week after it snowed

Kurt to Gillit Road had to go

But he went out and got pissed

And the meeting he missed

And he's too ashamed now to let us all know!

MC had comitted a crime

They didnt update "the path of least time"

"Give us the score!

Is Kurt dead on the floor?

Or is he tied up with some twine?

We fear that our Kurt might be dead

Bleeding out from the hole in his head

We sit and we sigh

And we ask ourselves why

Didn't we send Garnet instead?

Kurt's silence is not reassuring

Nor Violet's: are they both abjuring

their duty to post

one or two lines at most

to let us know what they're enduring?

There once was a guy called Kurt

Who now lies several feet under the dirt

What a tragic loss

He's covered in moss

Now the Third Power are alert..

Things seem to be getting much worse

Poor Kurt might end up in a hearse

If that is the case

We should be brave of face

The sitation might get more adverse!

Now i know that T-I-N-A-G

But i'm cheered by one thing

You see: we know Kurt too well

For him to be felled

So early by the guys at MC.

This stuff just drives me crazy

The suspense that we all have to see

They just have to tell

For our fears they must quell

By those strange little guys at MC.

That said, I would not be too shocked

For poor Kurt in some room to be locked

And with our great brainy clout

We'll bust him right out

Though he'd be far better off with a Glock.

It looks like Kurt disappeared

The folks at 3P all cheered

Meanwhile back on earth

We were lacking in mirth

As new theories were being volunteered.

Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Dead

Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Dead

Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Dead

Kurt Kurt Kurt Kurt Dead

And that is what's stuck in my head

Here we wait for the major update

Telling us of a guy called Kurts' fate

We have baited breath

We dont want another death

No-one will be left at this rate!

It's a dark time but you know what I say?

You must look at it all in this way:

Our friend, he has copped it

But we couldn't have stopped it

Snd I'm one step closer to Miss Kiteway!

==Non-Limericks==

Kurt went off with dreams of glory, Underpants on over corduroy slacks.

We’re starting to think that it got rather gory, and we’re wondering which part of him we're going to get back.

Oh Kurt, if you’re listening up there in the sky

Tell us the horrible way you were made to die!

Kurt is dead

Kurt's not dead

We don't bloody know

Why the hell do Mind Candy

Put on this horrid show.

He went off with a backpack but sadly got kidnapped, we fell for a terrible ruse!

But codes we shall crack to get our hero Kurt back, once that's done we'll go get the cube.

Kurt has gone AWOL, could he be in gaol? On the run from the law, or much worse?

Gone for twenty-three hours since he met the 3rd Power, our every ploy seems to be cursed!

Suspence, Driving force

Kurt's state must not be revealed

Or we will explode.

==Joke==

A guy walks into a bar. The barman says, "Hey man, how's your day been?" "I've been scribing puzzles all day, if you must know. Can you just get me a damn drink?" snaps the guy. "Well sheesh," replies the barman, "no need to be so bloomin' Kurt!"

==Acrostic Poem==

K urt,

U nfiction

R esulted in his

T ermination?

==Final Question==

How many Kurts did the Kurtkiller kill if the Kurtkiller did kill Kurt?

===SledgeCallier===
Having spent his formative years in rural Leicestershire, SledgeCallier was transplanted to Oxford in a failed attempt to absorb knowledge. Instead he found himself working as a Cartographer. After a few years of this Sledgecallier came to his senses and moved into an IT Helpdesk role from where he now hides his powers from the rest of the world.

==Authors==
===Ammonite===
Ammonite (real name Alex Fleetwood) lives in London, England. He works for old media. His favourite things include choral music, Anthony Lane reviews, shingle beaches and beer.

===Coxtin===
Conceived with an unusual amount of purpose and vigour Chris Martin finally arrived into the world after a record six thousand nine hundred and seventy two week gestation period inside his surrogate mother-Daily Mail columnist Melanie Phillips. Standing tall at six foot nine he often strides around London parks mimicking Peter Crouch mimicking John Cleese mimicking Hitler. Attaching loaves of bread to his shoes, elbows and eyes, tourists are often shocked to see a tall man goose-stepping around Hyde park with Ducks, Swans and Chihuahua dogs biting at his flailing arms, legs and head. Academically the man appears to be inconstant however his main ambition when he sat his GCSEs was to spell out the name of his best friend, Adae, with his results. Although this was seen by the London School of Economics and Political Science to be a failure Chris could only see his results as a good thing and wondered if anyone was called Lseps. Frequently bored by his job he can often be found sitting in a second floor office in Blackfriars, in the city of London, making absurd claims about his life-he never tells people about this hobby though as Chris feels that no one would believe him. As far as hobbies go this crab ridden freak of man has few-however he does tie small children to famous buildings. He once tied up Jimmy Cranky to the Taj Mahal. He was greatly distressed to find that Jimmy was not a small child, but just a bit odd. Chris, aged nine, can be easily recognised because he has a head made out of corrugated iron, wood and apples.

===Cronogenesis===

Conogenesis (Jack smith) is a student/giant/pirate from Heanor, Derbyshire. Although living in this area, he is actually a citizen of the nation of Lovely, a small country in the middle of London boasting a population of 52,000. Cron has been searching for the Cube since the early days althought is usually ignored due to his mass speculation. He is best known for his poetry, rather than stories. Some of his better known pieces include "Weather" and "Mr. Moonlight". If you are looking for Cron you will usually find him listening to Viards 'The Silver City' or helping some stranger. He says hello, have a great day and may fortune smile upon you in the future :).

===Duckiemonster===
Duckiemonster is a medical student looking for something to fill the hole in her life left by the recent demise of a three-year relationship. She loves to write, play bass guitar and also runs knitting classes.

===Enigmaster===
Born and currently living on the friendly island of Jersey, Enigmaster (real name Lyle Entwistle) often finds himself cut off from the action surrounding the efforts of the mainland Cube-hunters, but still enjoys the thrill of the (metaphorical) chase. When he's not surfing or solving, he indulges in fresh and varied rock music, gadget shopping and can even be seen attempting a 'normal' teenage social life - with debatable success. Carpe Noctem!

===Fantasticalan===
Fantastic Alan takes absolutely no pride in the ridiclously non-modest nickname he was given once upon a time. Similarly, however, he doesn't attempt to stop its propagation (well, would you?). Hailing from God's own town of Hinckley, in God's own county of Leicestershire (OK, I'll stop there), he isn't yet thirty and might do karaoke if he's drunk enough. He doesn't like cushions.

===Frankie Roberto===
===Forg===
Forg comes from a small little village outside Loughborough in which he has just inhabited. Starting his first year of A levels and spends all of his life either at his wonderful girlfriends house, working or spending huge amount of times sitting here learning about the wonderful world of Perplex City. Being fairly new to the community he is just getting settled into the goings on however he's loving every minute and one day, we will find that cube! The rest of his wonderful life is spent eating sleeping and playing his guitar.

===GasparLewis===
===Gibbet===

The story of Gibbet stretches back over two centuries. In the year 1765 at the crossroads between Coventry and Kenilworth, three scoundrels were hung for murder on a freshly erected gibbet. Flash forward to the present day and this place has become part of the vibrant Warwick University campus. And in 2002, young David Hill enrolled as a fresher. It took a rugby drinking social to notice the connection between his surname and this famous section of campus. But since that day Gibbet he became. Some say that if you listen to him talk you can just about make out the screams for mercy from the condemned men hung there all those years ago. Others just say that he talks rubbish! On a lighter note, he enjoys racket sports, plays trombone and spends far too much time on the computer!

===Hituro===
Hituro is an electronic enigma, a personality created by an out of work web designer with too much time on his hands. When translated into the real world Hituro enjoys reading, writing, roleplaying, gaming and running large multi-player online games which take up entirely too much of his time!

===Josh Black===
===MagikGuy===
MagikGuy (Stefan Marseglia) falls under the Perplexian zodiac sign of "The Apple-Thief" and is currently studying A-Levels at his local Sixth Form in the areas of English Literature, French, General Studies, Information Communication Technology and Sociology. MagikGuy would like to aspire to become a Journalist when he is older and would like to study at Marmalejo College in Perplex City, the same place where Scarlett Kiteway is currently majoring in Journalism. MagikGuy has been a devoted member of the Perplex City phenomenon from early August 2005 and wishes to do his best in order to help out Perplexians by finding the whereabouts of The Receda Cube.

===Katie Goldblatt===
Katie Goldblatt is, at seven years old, one of our youngest participants in the cube retrieval scheme. This brown haired, green eyed young cube hunter goes to St Peter at Gowts in Lincoln and says her most treasured possession is a picture of Scarlett Kiteway that was sent to her by Sente's youngest daughter. Her interests include her baby sister Amy, playing and talking and learning about Perplex City. Her favourite computer games are the SSX series of snowboarding games and Sims 2.
Katie's mum & dad, Nikki Jenkins & James Goldblatt, have been known to join in with cube hunting too! They all play together online as Roxeth.

MikeyJ, was born in Plymouth, UK and is slowly making his way northward. A seasoned porn star (under his full name Michael J Cox), he now intends to turn his hand (and other parts of his anatomy) to more literary pusuits. He hopes you prefer them.

===Mokey F. Rock===
Mokey belly dances and studies Japanese, which (sort of) accounts for her strange hybrid of the two cultures in her story. She believes in literature, the theatre, games, and all forms of healthy entertainment. When she isn't goofing off, Mokey writes and teaches English, which unfortunately does not mean she gets paid to talk about Shakespeare every waking moment -- just some of the time.

===number9dream===
Number9dream (aka Simon Douglas): fondness for flying kites, wearing ladies underwear and drinking espresso. That’s it.

===oliverkeers13===
oliverkeers13: Real name Oliver Keers. This young man started his life of crime early. His most recent, and arguably most infamous, illegal activity was at a recent Cube Hunting event in London, UK, Earth. He beat up several small children, and an elderly couple, in order to obtain exclusive cards. These were held by a secret illegal organisation, prompting much speculation as to his involvement with this organisation. Oliver refuses to comment on this matter.

===Sentinel===
===Specterz===
Erik Nusselder, aka specterz, is from the Netherlands. He is 21 years old, and studying law school. His hobbies are music and tennis.
Although quite new to the Cube Retrieval Team he has been diligently read up on everything, and hope to assist in finding the cube for the people of Perplex City.

===TheBozzball===

TheBozzball is a mathematician with a PhD from the University of Memphis, and is for a very short time working as a Junior Research Fellow at Trinity College, Cambridge before going off to be a quantitative analyst in New York.

===Coxtin===
Conceived with an unusual amount of purpose and vigour Chris Martin finally arrived into the world after a record six thousand nine hundred and seventy two week gestation period inside his surrogate mother-Daily Mail columnist Melanie Phillips. Standing tall at six foot nine he often strides around London parks mimicking Peter Crouch mimicking John Cleese mimicking Hitler. Attaching loaves of bread to his shoes, elbows and eyes, tourists are often shocked to see a tall man goose-stepping around Hyde park with Ducks, Swans and Chihuahua dogs biting at his flailing arms, legs and head. Academically the man appears to be inconstant however his main ambition when he sat his GCSEs was to spell out the name of his best friend, Adae, with his results. Although this was seen by the London School of Economics and Political Science to be a failure Chris could only see his results as a good thing and wondered if anyone was called Lseps.

As far as hobbies go this crab ridden freak of man has few-however he does tie small children to famous buildings. He once tied up Jimmy Cranky to the Taj Mahal. He was greatly distressed to find that Jimmy was not a small child, but just a bit odd. Chris, aged nine, can be easily recognised because he has a head made out of corrugated iron, wood and apples.

The story of Gibbet stretches back over two centuries. In the year 1765 at the crossroads between Coventry and Keniworth, three scoundrels were hung for murder on a freshly erected gibbet. Flash forward to the present day and this place has become part of the vibrant Warwick University campus. And in 2002, young David Hill enrolled as a fresher. It took a rugby drinking social to notice the connection between his surname and this famous section of campus. But since that day Gibbet he became. Some say that if you listen to him talk you can just about make out the screams for mercy from the condemned men hung there all those years ago. Others just say that he talks rubbish! On a lighter note, he enjoys racket sports, plays trombone and spends far too much time on the computer!

===Hituro===
Hituro is an electronic enigma, a personality created by an out of work web designer with too much time on his hands. When translated into the real world Hituro enjoys reading, writing, roleplaying, gaming and running large multi-player online games which take up entirely too much of his time!

Tales From Earth:Spay's Invaders

2005-12-09T03:46:45Z

Gibbet:

A story from the [[Tales From Earth]] compilation.

== '''Spay's Invaders''' ==

“But why?” asked the cadet. “Why must we attack like this?”

“Because it is the way it always has been done,” replied the Spay’s commander. “My father fought like this, and his father before him. Since we first started invading other worlds we have attacked like this. And that is the way it shall always be!”

The cadet stared down at the planet beneath them, at the four bases below. The shields on the bases shone brightly upwards; clearly visible now as they approached. And somewhere down there, although the evidence pointed against it, he knew there would be the defender. For so it was written: whenever invasion was attempted, a defender was to be found lurking on the planets surface.

This was despite the best efforts at subterfuge. They had tried cloaking the fleets. They had tried projecting reverse noise to block the signals of their approach. Even decoy fleets had been tried, but had been ignored by the potential targets. It was almost as if the attacks were being predicted. Somehow the defensive systems were anticipating the incoming ships. But how was that possible?

This time, the SEAL (System Evaluation Attack Landing) team had studied the southern polar region where the bases were to be found and reported no signs of movement.

Surely this was not to be an easy victory? Invasion without losses? The cadet could only hope so. For it seemed every day brought more bad news back to the Spays’ home world. Fleet losses were increasing; reports brought back by the few survivors were of destruction raining up from the surface; not the glory that had been part of the conscription process.

He thought that maybe the protesters had a point. Why the ceaseless need for more territory?

Sure, in the old days, when the ever increasing population threatened to destroy the very existence of life with its limited space and resources. Then there had been a need to expand. Combined with the additional funding poured into the space program, colonising other planets seemed an ideal solution. After all, in a seemingly infinite universe there must have been more room to live. The first few closest habitable planets the early adventurers had stumbled upon had been no problem. For the large part they were vacant, with plenty of room for resettlement. But after a while these ‘empty planets’ became more and more scarce.

The population crisis by this stage was practically under control. So there should have been no need for further invasions, but somewhere along the line the need for more space and the wish for more space had become confused. Now it seemed that the invasions continued just because they could! The fact that some of these planets now already had life on them was irrelevant! And sure enough gazing out of the observation window this one was no different. Somehow the defender had evaded the SEAL team’s scanners, for there certainly was one there!

The fleet began its final descent towards the surface. The folly of its construction was all too obvious to the cadet. The brightly coloured craft lined up in rows, one colour to a row. The square ships at the bottom, changing shape as the layers progressed upwards, towards the twelve pointed star-shaped craft containing the more important soldiers. The cadet remembered the age-old saying: “The higher up the ship, the more points”. In a purely aesthetic point this was clearly true. But somewhere in the back of his mind, he wondered if there was another meaning, one beyond his comprehension.

Flying above the fleet; the communications ships shot by at intermittent frequencies. Not an envious job by any means. For some reason the defender often aimed specifically for them during attacks, as if they were somehow more important. The reason for this was not clear; it was just another example of ‘the way things were’!

Another was the method of attack. In their lines the ships moved from left to right above the bases, firing down as they went. Once reaching the furthermost base, they reversed direction and drew closer to the planet. Although this seemed strange, the cadet had initially accepted this as the best method. Strafing the enemy gave a good way of inflicting maximum damage. But now, with the defenders missiles hurtling upwards to meet them, he was beginning to doubt it.

Instead of creating the masses of destruction that were predicted, all they were doing was providing easy targets; while at the same time the bases provided perfect hiding places for the defender to hide behind.

And hide behind them, this one certainly was. Cowering behind the shielded base, the crude rectangular craft popped out and let off its missiles. Even its decoration was inferior. None of the tentacles or antenna that were the proud symbols of the cadet’s home world. Just a simple rectangle with a gun turret.

Had they no pride in their culture? No imagination?

And now what was this? The defender had chosen to shoot at its own base! A message from the commander, somewhere high above the planet, crackled through on the inter-space communicator. “They are giving up, press on for victory!”

But the cadet saw better, the defender was not giving up. Instead it was providing a safe way to fire its missiles up towards the fleet whilst still remaining shielded from their attacks. Not suicide, but self-sacrifice!

Had the communications been two-way, the cadet would have reported his fears. However the ships were not designed that way. Another failing, he realised, but yet another one that it was too late to worry about now.

The attack continued; blasts rocked his craft. To his left and right, the ships were obliterated. Friends he’d known since joining the academy gone, lost in a second. And so the losses were replicated between the fleet. The defender scored hit after hit with none of their returning fire coming close to stopping it. (Not that it would have mattered! The few detailed reports that had made it back to the Spay’s central base had stated that on destroying the defender there was just a loud electronic beep and another identical defender had replaced it!)

With the increasing losses, and the fleet now in tatters, the cadet longed for a retreat call to be announced. Cowardly as it sounded, he realised the mission was a hopeless one, and just longed to live to see his family again. The radio crackled.

Was this it?

But no, instead it was one of the surviving commanders: “Keep firing”, the voice said, “The fleet will speed up, and if we lose more ships then it will keep speeding up. If we make it to the surface then it will shall be victorious!”

So the fleet did indeed speed up. The changes in direction were more spread out now. The cadet was thankful that he had been in the middle of the fleet’s make-up as the defender seemed to have been picking off the ships on the edge first before concentrating on the rest. This was another tactic that had seemed strange but rather effective nonetheless. As the ships at the periphery were destroyed, it took longer for each pass and therefore longer for the fleet to reach the planets surface.

Explosions continued. The fleet was whittled down slowly but surely. Faster and faster they went. As the ground became closer, individual details of the remaining bases became clear. And still the ships fell, until only the cadets’ remained.

Flying along; lower and lower the ship went. Missiles just missing as the defender tried to track the ever-accelerating craft. By hopeful as he was, the cadet knew that he wasn’t going to make it. It just wasn’t to be.

And then as the missile struck, just before his final shield fell and the cadet experienced total oblivion; his final sight was some letters burnt into the planet’s sky in bold type. They simply said:

“LEVEL COMPLETE”

Tales From Earth:Tower of Cards

Gibbet: New story for compilation

A story from the [[Tales From Earth]] compilation.

== '''Tower of Cards''' ==

It was a full house in the arena, and a hushed silence fell upon the eagerly waiting spectators. Not that they had been loud before; the initial whispered comments and nervous fidgeting had long since ceased, the tension was too great for that. But now as they felt the end was in sight that previous silence felt the equivalent of being on a busy building site.

Perched at the top of his ladder, some ten metres above the ground Chen Jun held aloft the final pair of cards, the cards that would cement his place in history, would make his name known throughout the world.

Although his body language suggested he was calm, inside it was quite another matter. Indeed, who could fail to be tense at this point? He had invested over three weeks in this latest attempt, and if it failed was not sure if he would have enough will to try again. That was always the way: try….fail....try….fail. Always so close, but so far the only emotions he had felt afterwards were those of frustration and disappointment.

But not this time, this time would be different!

Never before had Jun got this far, to the final storey. In essence this should be simple, place two cards onto the tower. Just like he had placed the two pairs below, and the three below that, and so on and so on, until the base layer that was placed what felt like a lifetime ago.

So why was it suddenly so hard? Granted for much of the building process he had been alone. After all, there are few people willing to sit through twenty-three days of building. The occasional passers-by had lingered for a while, admired the skilful work, and then carried on with their daily lives. Now he was increasingly aware of the packed crowd below him. Their restraint was commendable; his concentration had been broken only once that morning by a woman sneezing, and thankfully that had not been a critical stage.

It was a shame that children had not been allowed into the central seating area. Despite parental guidance it was almost impossible to get a youngster to sit still for that length of time, and Jun knew that they would be able to join in with the final stages in the comfort of their own homes. Or for that matter on one of the many large screens that had been hurriedly assembled in the main squares across the city. Hurriedly, because he was not supposed to be finishing for some time, and was somewhat ahead of schedule. The previous efforts had taken many more days. Probably it was all the practice, but still it did worry him slightly that things were going possibly too well.

The thoughts of children had entered Jun’s mind as it was when he himself had been much, much younger that his love of card building had begun. It had been his grandfather Chen Di-Jin, that had started him off; that had supplied that initial creative spark. After an evening of family card games, Poker and Rummy had been his favourites he recalled, his grandfather had cleared the table, and constructed a fantastic structure. Being quite small the tower, although not that high, especially compared to his latest work, had been as tall as Jun was; and he marvelled at how the cards could stand on their own, with apparently no support.

Pleased that he had such an affect on his grandson, Di-Jin suggested that he have a go himself. So Jun had picked up a couple of cards and tried to place them in the inverted V-shape on the table. His inexperience was clear as it took several attempts to get them to stand. Taking a couple more cards he lined them up alongside the first pair…………they collapsed.

He tried again…………again they collapsed.

After a few more tries there were two pairs with the corresponding top card ready to be the base for the next layer. Jun picked up two more cards and placed them on…………and the whole thing fell down!

By now Jun had lost patience with the game and told his grandfather so. Di-Jin looked at him in a disappointed fashion telling him that if people gave up when things got hard then nothing would have ever been achieved. The lecture given he offered the cards back to Jun and asked if he would like to continue.

Not wishing to disappoint, Jun accepted the cards and tried again. After a few more unsuccessful attempts there proudly stood on the table a two storey pyramid. Buoyed by this victory he continued to add to the structure. Sometimes the cards would stand, sometimes they would fall, but within a couple of hours he had managed to construct four layers much to his grandfather’s joy.

The rest of the family went to bed, but Jun and his grandfather stayed up well into the early hours of the next morning talking about cards and all the amazing things that could be made from them. Together they built towers, rings, bridges and his grandfather’s personal creation, a long winding structure he called the Di-Jin worm. Jun eventually went to bed tired, but content.

From that point on, the card building became a hobby, then an obsession, until finally he became good enough to challenge for the chance to be the best in the world.

Waking from these thoughts, the happy memory seemed to invigorate Jun. Despite the beads of sweat slowly running from his furrowed brow and the intense mental concentration, he began once again to believe that it was possible.

Steadying himself on the ladder, he began to lower the final two cards onto the tower. As always they were his special jokers. One was more special as it was marked with a lucky star drawn by his grandfather before he died. Jun would not dream of using any other cards as they had brought him good luck in the past and sometimes he thought that when he held them he could hear his grandfather’s voice urging him on to succeed.

As they touched the top layer, a tremble went through the tower. Jun paused, afraid that any movement would bring all his hard work crashing down. But the structure held. Relieved, and with the jokers placed at the correct angle he paused for one final time. This last release and the subsequent minute that the tower had to hold for the record to stand would prove the difference between another heartbreaking failure, and the achievement of a dream he had been working towards all his life.

He carefully lifted his hands away. The tower wobbled slightly as the contact was lost. A card on one of the lower storeys shifted slightly as the movement passed though it and the crowd produced what seemed a communal intake of breath. The card stopped its slide and stood firm. The minute slowly ticked by. Second after second after second, and with each one’s passing, Jun was closer to victory.

Finally, the moment arrived. The timekeeping official raised his green flag, and it was confirmed. Chen Jun was the world champion card stacker!

Amid the waves of resulting applause from the crowd, amongst the flashes of cameras recording the famous event, even through the balloons and confetti falling in celebration, all Jun could see was his grandfather’s face from years ago, smiling with pride at his grandson’s achievement.

==Requirements==

*'''Entries should be themed: Games'''
**Let me re-emphasize: '''Entries should be themed: Games'''
**Any game will do, and I believe if a submission is strong enough we can probably look the other way if it doesn't have much to do with any literal games.
*We do not have a given length minimum or maximum on individual entries.
*Entries may be poetry, prose, or most anything else.
*[[Seaside Press]] have said they will allow some illustrations.
**However this is not an art book, bear in mind. Think black-and-white.

Leaked E-mails

Gibbet:

On Wendesday 16th November 2005, Perplex City players who had completed the set of four blue hex cards were sent an e-mail congratulating them from the Academy.

However, it seems that the Academy's e-mail system managed to ''leak'' some internal e-mails at the bottom of these e-mails sent out to players. Each player so far has received a different e-mail fragment. They are arranged below in date order.

The top portion of the e-mail reads:

<div style="background-color: #d6d6d6; border: thin grey solid; padding: 10px;">"Dear [player name],

Congratulations, you've solved a set of four Perplex City cards. We've rewarded you by [[Leaderboard|doubling your points]] for each of the cards in the set.

Your Perplex Point total is now ''[total]''. You have solved ''[x]'' cards.

We in Perplex City would like to thank you for your continued dedication to our cause. With your help, we are certain that the Receda Cube will be found and returned safely.

Sincerely, 
The Puzzle Scribe Team

It's not my fault. I simply mistook the contact. The contact gave the
appropriate response to the feeder line and correctly completed the
third element. I barely gave anything away before realising the error. She
didn't appear suspicious. Contact correctly identified within two

Fortunately for you, only Von and I are in the office so far to see your
telltale fingernails. My advice is, cut them as short as you can and use
McWhirter's Reliable Remover. Old fashioned but it works. It was a nice piece of performance theatre, though.

He has been a member of the defence forces of this city for many years, has assisted in the capture of numerous criminals and has been awarded every one of those "chest full of medals" for distinguished service.
