IIT Madras Treasure Hunt "Kryptyk"

People who had participated earlier in IIT-D's Krypton already know what to do....

If they're interested, then they can surely register here: *www.shaastra.org/2008/events/Kryptyk and start solving.

I'll start solving tomorrow.

Waiting for dreamcatcher, Ecko, Pathik and other guys.

Same here... I think it was from the 3rd level.. Not sure..

Thanks to AMD, we are on 10th now.

Haha......

dreamcatcher a.k.a AMD, throttled me to 10th now and we solved the 10th in a very unorthodox manner.

We didn't solve it the way they were expecting us.

We both on 11th now.

Me in 14 and stuck again.

K

call me stupid, i can't figure out where to type anything on the 2nd level

^^Change the url..

K

still stuck on 2.. i really am stupid.

^^Think of Global health organisations.. And then replace the last part of the url with the answer..

K

ah.. got it
On level three, recognized the quote from Monty Python's quest for the holy grail(which incidentally is an awesome movie) and tried everything from mary magdalene to a cup.. It takes me to a page that says .. "Please do not hurry.. you can come here after finishing your previous levels.."
Im guessing thats not the actual fourth level?

Saw it just now but it seems that registration page is down
