I thought I had it only to get the dreaded 404. How can this feel so right yet be so wrong?

Subreddit Rules (Read before Posting/Commenting)
26
Upvotes
Earlier today I was considering shutting this subreddit down as there is a rash of folks reporting users for either begging for puzzle solutions or outright sharing them in the comments. I don't want to do that so I am updating the rules. Those that don't follow them will be banned, disqualified from the game, or both.
- Sharing puzzle answers is against our code of conduct - Players found sharing or using shared answers will be disqualified and ineligible for the prize. This extends to sharing puzzle answers in private messages.
- Don't ask for puzzle directions, hints or solutions in the subreddit or via direct message - Asking for encouragement is fine. Asking for directions/hints to solve a puzzle either in the subreddit or via direct message is not. This includes messaging me directly.
- Do not share screenshots or pieces of the puzzles - Shit posting funny memes is fine but do not share DETAILED pieces of the puzzles that could give away puzzle parts as some users may not have progressed to those puzzles yet.
- Do not post claiming a puzzle link or answer is broke - It's probably not and 99.9% of the time this is user error but if you truly feel there is an issue, message me.
- Don't disparage the game or other players - Your inability to solve a puzzle is no one's issue but your own.
Side note: I also updated the TOS on the site that Pentesting (Penetration Testing) the site’s server, brute-forcing URLs, DDOS attacks or any action that could break the game is strictly prohibited and will result in disqualification.

Anyone go to Puzzled Pint? Thinking about going since Cicada has got me more interested in the puzzle community.

Anyone trying their hand at r/treasureinside ? Seems like there would be some crossover here with cryptic skills.

Site backup restored

We had a database error and had to go off a recent backup so anything that happened on the site from 3:35AM last night to 6:30pm Eastern today was wiped. If you bought a hint, I can manually pull records to reinstate it. If you completed a puzzle, you’ll need to recomplete it. If you see anything else wrong with the site, please let me know.

I just know I'm overlooking something obvious. I cannot figure out what this last piece means 😭. I don't see any posts on it either and the solve rate is very high :(

Really just came to pout because I don’t see much P13 representation lol. I spent days obsessing over every possible angle for this puzzle and finally got a solution that I thought HAD to be it. Nope, not accepted. So now I’m gonna go lay in the grass in fetal position to recharge for a bit.

Is anyone else wondering if they are in a little doo deep? It feels like it just went upside down a little bit. Stepped it up a whole level and I think people have to be falling off like flies after the last part. Or was it obvious and I’m just going actually crazy for now reason.

I get pissed when I realize how simple some of these puzzles really are. When tell you I had 12 in the bag I was literally right there for a week but kept putting in the wrong answer to only realize it was how I interpreted the answer that had me messed up. People say there the aha moment for me it’s a wtf really ITS THAT SIMPLE !?!!! Moment lol. But these are great puzzles. Especially when you don’t over think.
