There will be a riddle presenting each location. The location co-ordinates will be the password. And the Password generating will be done in an external program, so i dont have to be online while you guys do the quest. If you were to answer the riddle wrong, you will be penetalized 15mins.

TO ALL MAC USERS: Im sorry, but i am not able to convert the exe to a max format. We could still do the quest. To start pm. And ill give you a set of directions, which is in the program. and we'll do this manually. PS : The external program was made by me in c++. It should be virus free. Also this quest have a save function. When you reach a checkpoint. Which is usually after you solve the riddle. A file will be made. its a .txt file. There will be a code in the file. When entered when starting up the program, it will take you to where your last checkpoint was. the file to check teh code for saving is called MDAquest.txt. it should be made in your desktop NO ALTS Any Questions?

freelancer Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Is there any way to participate in your quests without having to download any files? I dont like to download unknown executables off the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mystery Posted July 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Hmm we could do it manually. But then i wont be able to do it today, due to me having to go. I made that file from scratch, so its is safe. I didnt dl any of it from other sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yeah... see i was also very vary of ANYTHING downloaded from the internet. I ran it in the virtual pc which i then removed because i would not trust people on the internet. From what i can see i believe it is safe, But so are all the best viruses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] lol that sounds just like "take off yer clothes, i won't do anything" no, but really, i think people would be less suspicious if you'd put it up as a script on a web page or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mystery Posted July 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 True... but i doubt im experience enough to go making viruses . Only been learning for 2 weeks now. But still, you have every right to doubt it. Thats why theres the manual option. But i made this console program, so as to allow, people to still participate in the quest, even if im not even online.

Mr Mystery Posted July 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 @Toten Well i could try that for next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Chewett Posted July 14, 2010 Root Admin Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 or... Shock horror. Use the tools Mur has provided. MDscript would work perfectly for something like this. It would also mean people wouldnt cheat the timer by closing and re opening the program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Mystery Posted July 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Dont i have to unlock that using MD Wp store?... And the reopening the program... I was planning to do at the start it will immedaitely read from the file it made, so as to continue from last timer point. But i failed in doing so... >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Chewett Posted July 14, 2010 Root Admin Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Well, You dont need to unlock it if you can impress Rendril Enough by your coding efforts. there was an announcement made a while back again. What stops people from just deleting that file also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
