Hey everyone! Ive been working on an event called safe crackers for instances to compete in

Im planning to hopefully run it around february so that its run 6 months apart from !canvas@toast.ooo

Essentially how it will work is each instance has a safe with a 20 digit password. Users of the instance have 100 points, and must set a 4 digit password and attempt to guess the passwords of users in other instances. If a password is guessed then they steal all of the points of the user they guessed.

To help guess passwords clues will be given which when solved will give one character of the users password. Clues will need to be solved using things like community names, post titles, etc. relating to the person

Each user only gets a certain amount of clues every so often so you would have to pool your clues with other members of your instance

If you guess a password you have a chance to get a clue for that instances 20 digit safe. If the 20 digit safe is broken into all of that instances points are stolen and that instance is eliminated


Details might differ a bit in the actual event since im still fleshing it out a bit but it should be similar

Currently thinking the top 20 instances in terms of MAU will be competing and the rest will be under a joint group for a total of 21 groups.

Ill be posting progress updates here on me constructing it and will be running a beta ahead of the actual event to test it out
