Agents,
It appears that you have retrieved a second mysterious file. The mainframe hasn’t finished analyzing the first one yet, but enter the location of what you’ve found to mainframe.macheist.com to add it to the queue.
While you were working we received another tip:

Devices β and γ don’t use the small capacitor, but the device that uses ‘Gates’ also uses the medium capacitor, while the device that uses ‘Ballmer’ uses the magenta fluid, and device γ doesn’t use the magenta fluid, nonetheless, devices β and γ use the ones named after Microsoft board members, while the device that uses the medium capacitor also uses the cyan fluid, yet the device that uses ‘Gates’ doesn’t use the yellow fluid, and of course, device α doesn’t use the cyan fluid!
Sherlock Holmes once said ”...when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth…”
Holmes’ domain was logic, but I find him to be curiously LogicallyIllogical.
“The Source” also included a code word that we can use to verify future communications, I’ll keep you posted as I get them.
Elementary my dear Watsons!

Neat!
Perfect. That is to say, slightly flawed. The mark of a true gentleman.
Fun fun -- bringing up last years notes!

@zarathos It's all a warmup anyway - this year will be really solid for sure!

yay! I have no idea what's going on since I didn't participate last year
Go Team ORANGE!
@micheldevon Pretty simple: just complete the challenges, find the images, and post them to mainframe.macheist.com

Yeah, I don't get it. Where do I even begin?
So, what do you do with the result?
. o O ( ORANGE! )
For the newcomers, the "The Backroom" thread contains all current info (including spoilers!), so go there if you want the real inside scoop.
Can some one please post a summery of what the heck is going on? I figured out the maze myself, I was in the middle of get the cypher for the last one when this pops up.
What was the answer to that last one?
I was able to follow the first two in this warmup, but not this third one so far
Go Team ORANGE!
Next! ![]()

I know...just anxious to get to the good stuff! ![]()
I kinda guessed they would start up MH3 today. They finished off MH2 at MacWorld (or thereabouts) last year, so it only made sense to pick up where they left off so to speak.
Go see the backroom if you are confused.
