Descent of the Durtle into eGoooott - NOW AT B8!

So the “reveal” (if that’s what we assume it is) being a certain date and not related to when we solve B4 seems to me to indicate something on the lines of launching EtoEto or something big like that. Something bigger than just the Durtle Heaven jiddle. Something that would have happened on Apr 1 whether we were done with B4 or not.

So on the one hand, Koichi indicated earlier that he “would consider” something about EtoEto something something as if it wasn’t the plan. Also he has indicated before he doesn’t like to project dates, so that would mean whatever it is is already done, just waiting for launch day. Anyone got a EtoEto beta testing account seeing anything suspicous? Unusual frantic actiivty (as if scrambling to make the deadline) or unusual NO activity (as if it’s done)?

You did it. You crazy SOB, you did it.

Glad I could contribute absolutely nothing to any of these puzzles. I feel like a little Durtle on a big freakin’ hook…

I’ve posted on this thread… Ooh 107 times and the only thing I’ve contributed is a bunch of sarcastic comments.

The smart people need some moral support!

Well, I for one am glad to have caused more confusion than I helped

@a-regular-durtle acknowledged your existence. That has to count for something!

Also, I didn’t really help much more. I did get my title from this puzzle though, so I guess that’s somewhat cool. Utterly unhelpful to everyone else, but cool.

Lol. He also stole my shiny watch. :watch:

Hmm… watch… countdown timer… :thinking:

To be fair all the hard work had already been done by other people. I basically got lucky.

I just started trying to figure out this entire descent into madness only to arrive too late :sweat_smile:

Major congratulations to everyone who figured this all out!!! You guys did a great job! I’m still trying to work through the logic of some of the more recent jiddles (eGoooott???) reading up on how you all got here was A RIDE and I hope to join in for whatever lies ahead.

Didn’t you technically get us into B4? You were the one to guess the password, right?

Look at this:

Same url as B5 with a question mark on the end prompts for a password. Just a mistake?

Strange. I tried it and it happened, but I decided to test it with the others, which did the same. Now, though, it doesn’t.

I was the one who got the exact capitalisation right and also was able to share it, but @FlamySerpent was the one who got in first by using a script with the four keywords but just couldn’t remember the exact variation they had used, so I just managed to guess the correct capitalisation(lowercase t on turtle and the G in eGoooott) of the words after they already had confirmed that the password indeed consisted of those four words. I guess it’s a small contribution, but I didn’t do all that much either :slight_smile:

It is still happening for me. Did your session end?

Yup. I probably should’ve done this before commenting .-. but I re-try in incognito mode and it shows back up.

It has to just be a mistake on the site which will never accept a password, right?

CONGRATS! BUT WHO ON EARTH USES INDEFINITE ARTICLES IN PASSWORDS, THOUGH?

Guess that explains why there were so many posts in the thread when I got up. I was kinda thinking someone was going to have solved it.

Or… is it a time limit? I certainly hope not.

The complete opposite? That everything except Durtle Heaven is just a joke?

Think you’d pretty much have to fall for your own prank to get that timing right, and that’d make you the foolishest of fools.

And wait for over a month, too…

What? That had to be one of the endiest endings of any show I’ve ever seen. Every now and then I open it on YouTube just so I can listen to that lovely music.

Agreed. I like the ending. Better on second viewing. Anyway, I bet there’s still a puzzle! Yeah, that’s the ticket!

That could be the password page to get TO B5. Try putting in ‘A TURTLE’?

Yes, that’s it. It took it. But maybe set that as a spoiler, or blur it?

By request, I did, but I’m not a big believer in that past a courtesy few scroll lengths. After all, that’s what this thread is for, sharing solutions.
