Mar’s Lanyard Puzzle

(Video from Mar to come soon )

Collecting all lanyards:

Artist - Chi̱
CFP - fi̱̱ʋʋi̱xch
Community - ya̱ il
Contest - achakʋli
Exhibitor - tukʋt e
Goon - chim
Human - anoli
Press - chi̱
Speaker - hosh
Uber - e chi̱ (was in a slide in my talk)
Vendor - paha̱ya
Village - tuk

"Chi̱ fi̱̱ʋʋi̱xch ya̱ il achakʋli tukʋt e chim anoli chi̱ hosh e chi̱ paha̱ya tuk."

One word is not in Choctaw. It's:
fi̱̱ʋʋi̱xch

Using a Caesars cipher shifted by number of lanyards, and the Choctaw alphabet, you get:

"Warranty"

Online decoders won't work because there is no character for the underlined i (nasalized i), which is an extra little trick that breaks it and gets people to decode it by hand.

Translate the Choctaw and you get, roughly:

"We've been trying to reach you about your extended warranty."

Enter that in to spux.art (on the back of your badge) and it gives you a rainbow tile for the mosaic.

Pub Quiz at DEF CON

First, I want to save we had a great time. The event was very successful, and we reached our max of 30 TEAMS!! That put us to at least to 200 people which was a great turn out. People came up and said they have a great time and goons came up as well that it was a great one. I am very happy to have been given the opportunity to host this contest/event. We are definitely putting in our submission to host another Pub Quiz for next year.

I also want to thank Secove and ChrisAM for making sure we got what we needed and pointing us to the right direction. They were valuable to making sure it went smoothly. Also, to the crew that was there that night. THEY did a fantastic job on getting us setup and I am truly grateful for their hard work.

As for the Result we had a tie for first place that was broken by a dance off to Sir Mix-a-lot Baby Got back. I had three goons help me and Glav judge and we came to a 4 to 1 for that 1st place. Below are the results which I will post on the forum as well.

1st place was TEAM _oblivouse_ for the $1,000 Cash prize




2nd place was TEAM Chicken Fingers for the $300 Cash prize




3rd place was TEAM Footclan for the $200 Cash prize
