[EXPIRED] Over the Waterfall

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:

The Source wrote:

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!

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

@micheldevon Pretty simple: just complete the challenges, find the images, and post them to mainframe.macheist.com

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.

I know...just anxious to get to the good stuff! smile

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.
