2012 CTF by Fluxfingers
It was again a great moment of fun to participate to this year's CTF organised by Fluxfingers @ Hack.lu 2012
T-Shirt contest
This one is quite apart from the other challenges for several reasons:
- The challenge was actually printed on participants' t-shirts, as of last year
- Surprisingly enough, only 2 teams over the 290 who scored at least one challenge managed to solve it!! (none of the top 10, they were teams #50 and #83)
- The challenge was the only one not designed by Fluxfingers team but... by myself, with the help of Alex to design the actual T-Shirt
Still I played the ctf fairly, proof is that even my team (woyouyizhixiaomaol=我有一只小毛驴) didn't find the solution ;-)
I must admit, the challenge was easier for local people than for remote people, reason is that a list of words was written on the T-Shirt while online a patchwork of unrelated images was visible.
On first evening, as no one solved it yet, we added an extra hint in the challenge description.
On last morning, as no remote team managed to solve it, we also published a picture of the T-Shirt for remote teams. Apparently it didn't help...
Here is it:
28 - T-shirt
Same as local T-shirt challenge: https://ctf.fluxfingers.net/challenges/noclue.png

Each element represents one word. Maybe you don't guess the exact right word for each of them, maybe not exactly in the right order, but it doesn't really matter as with a few words, it's enough to find the trick as we will see later.
So if we do the exercice we get something like:
RJ45? / unicode / crypta / assyria? / creatrix / ochra / chimaera / cumulate eucrite / jana antepono / condoleo / remissus / Πελασγοί=pelasgoi / antepono / cimex lectularius
First two seems to refer to known technologies while all the rest seems mostly latin words
Second image is the T-Shirt itself and there you get the exact word list:
So actual word list is:
