Tier 2ABC: THE "Egg" Puzzle

Tier overview

This tier was solved immediately after T2ABC was solved, as it used the same cipher and overall clue structure. As with T2ABC, it would be the combination of the passwords from T1D, T1E, and T1F, which were all related to "egg."

Solving

On November 17th, hunters fanclubfm and R.Cade solved the password, "evivi" and unlocked the tier. This tier (both T2ABC and T2DEF) took 61 days to solve.

Summary

The cipher from T2ABC was used, as this password was on the same tier.

Therefore "egg" --> "e66" --> "evivi"

-After unlocking T1F, the next two tiers became available at the same time, T2ABC and T2DEF. The hunters had a feeling that each of these two tiers would follow a common theme from the puzzles that they were named after. For T2ABC, the main theory was that the password would be somehow related to gold. T1A's password was 1064, which is the melting point of gold in Celsius. T1B's password was LXXIX, and 79 is the atomic number of gold. T1C's password was 5f137s2, and 137 degrees is the golden angle.

-The page for T1F was updated, and showed a "LOADING" GIF, with a computer cursor blinking to the right of the word. The hunters assumed that this meant that T2ABC was being prepared, and to wait for further instruction. The GIF was searched for any clues, but none were found.

-On September 22nd, the hunters discovered that the "LOADING" GIF had been replaced with a new one, and this time it said "READY," in the same font and style as the first message. It became apparent that the password was ready to be entered, and the hunters did not need any new images or information in order to solve this tier.
