T3 Project

Jump to: navigation, search

The T3 Project is a scavenger hunt game by Pakratt0013. It consisted of cryptic pillars placed all over the MindCrack Season 3 map. The start of these pillars was located at the center of Guudeland but it has been replaced by an improved King of the Ladder design by Pakratt.[1] The game was created in IRC and in the Eluinhost forum with the help of fans.[2] The scavenger hunt has never been completed by any other member of the server. This page lists all the riddles along with their locations, some linking directly to the wiki's Overviewer map. Most riddles are copied directly as-is, including grammatical errors; grammatically-corrected ones are supplied here.

Riddles[edit]

Location: Guudeland (start) Status: Discovered
"This pillar you have found, I see! But there are many much more important than me! From near to far, cross the lands we lay, waiting for the certain day, which all is exposed to they who seek, the answers to the riddles on their peaks! Not that there's any treasure or loot, but in the end is but fame, but that point is moot! So if my brethren are what you seek, the start is near where you stand so to speak! 'The question is inside out leader's mind.'"

Congradulations
You've made it 
to the end!
 
The signs from
before are for
you to place on
the monument.
Place your sign
and take a pic
of the monument
as you see it.
BE QUICK!
This on a timer
When it ends,
It's all gone!

"Congratulations. You've made it to the end! The signs from before are for you to place on the monument. Place your sign and take a picture of the monument as you see it. Be quick! This on a timer when it ends, it's all gone!"

As indicated in one of the final pillars ("...Password it must be told from the #'s in riddles..." the riddles include references to numbers ("cloud nine," "at zero take," "Three of these," "five of his feet," "torch seven from," "Six true ways" and "four and four wings" (8) which equals 9035768. Reversed it is 8675309, the numbers in a popular song by Tommy Tutone, the origin of "T3." ERU was a bot that used to feed the MindCrack chat to the IRC, and if it was given that series of numbers it would provide the location of the path that would lead to the monument (x=867 z=530 y=9).[6]
