Treasure hunt!

—devadutta @ 01:16

Happy New Year folks!

We wish you a very bright and awesome 2011! 2010 was a lot of fun for us and hope you had fun too.

We had planned a lot of special events for 2010, but we were never able to get those things up to release quality. So, to change things for 2011, lets start the new year with a small treasure hunt!

Decipher the message below to get started with the hunt!

  1. The first person to solve the puzzle will get 5 points and a surprise award!
  2. The puzzle will be kept open for 2 days after the first person solves it
  3. Anyone else who solves the puzzle(while its open) gets 3 points
  4. Your runlength will NOT be affected if you do not answer this puzzle.

IMPORTANT: When you reach the treasure (end of the puzzle), follow instructions which you can find there.

So get cracking!
