So hopefully that single unique will be to crack the highest level password, and won't be for something like "guess all digits in a password".

Interesting. I finished with 9.46.

I'm really interest to see if guessing more letters and then cracking gives more CS compared to brute-forcing everything and then cracking.
It will also be interesting to see if failing guesses reduces CS gain upon cracking.

13.55 for me, had plenty of nerve to burn so I spared no expense.

Hackers failed extremely often while bruteforcing, which was a PITA, think i spent close to 400N total.

I believe the guard takes a 15 min break every 4 hours.

Also, there is an honor for guessing 250 characters. So make sure you use your 3 guesses per password. Once you get 3 X's, you will be forced to brute force the remaining characters.

Well I now realised I shouldnt have guessed the letter, as now Im 8.98 CS with no more jobs to do, while other people bruteforced and went over 10CS, unlocking 2 new dailyjobs.

Guessing right should give you same CS as using 7 nerve to unlock.
Toxic [1725903]
But your one character closer to the 250 guessed characters honor lol. Curious how much CS you get for guessing vs brute forcing with 7 nerve.

Its a nice touch to have the output of the little picture similar to an actually "password" cracker from some time ago..

Something something keepass or so, had to use it in a recent CTF so i am aware of it :p
