Chapter 21 is: abusively.

 

[judgejohn82]

Chapter 20 anyone?

 

[M-B-P]

I'm on Chapter 21 right now and it's not "the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog"

Try "ABUSIVELY"

Chapter 22!!!! Is this thing every going to end???

Anyone got 22?

 

[eKristensen]

GNIALDE is mixed up. Try "ALIGNED" or "DEALING" or "LEADING" at the end of your url. Any of those should work.

Thanks. It was what i needed.

 

[Ryox]

use the algorithm.

abusively

 

[Agent-P]

Use the algorithm.

Yup, just got it using the algorithm. Sorry I didn't see anyone else's post before figuring it out.

 

[yousefk]

now that we've got 21, anyone for 22?

 

[w00t951]

Maybe the founding dates for each country?

 

[Agent-P]

For those music files, maybe the letters each piano key corresponds to is important? Unfortunately I cannot identify them just by listening :/

 

[Watabou]

Or the number of colors in the flag? I think it's harder than that though. Maybe we need to figure out what country those flags belong to.

 

[ravenvii]

Maybe the founding dates for each country?

Click 'collection of music' to find a collection of midis in your dropbox.

That's as far as I got.

 

[Watabou]

I don't know which one is the important one. The piano notes or the drum? Maybe the number corresponds to the number of piano notes before the drum? I don't know how I would use this information though.

 

[QuarterSwede]

Possibly the midi files are related to the country's anthems?

 

[lordblendi]

I think we should figure out the which miid number belongs to which flag. than calculate the mods. and then the numbers are the answer

 

[Agent-P]

I think we should figure out the which miid number belongs to which flag. than calculate the mods. and then the numbers are the answer

So now we just need to identify which flag is which country, which song file is which anthem, and then match them up? (assuming these two guesses are correct)

Or the number of colors in the flag? I think it's harder than that though. Maybe we need to figure out what country those flags belong to.

These should be right:


[( CUBA * NAMIBIA ) + MADAGASCAR ] mod 163
[( MICRONESIA, FEDERATED STATES OF / SENEGAL ) * GEORGIA ] mod 23
[ PORTUGAL - RUSSIA - LIECHTENSTEIN ] mod 18
[( ARGENTINA * SEYCHELLES ) / MACAU ] mod 5
[( BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA + INDIA ) / BRAZIL ] mod 2

(looks like the image display order is different for different folks... based on the image names, mine (above) is 51762.)

@Dropbox: Seems like we'll have our Dropquest winner shortly...!

Seems like someone is close or this is the last chapter.

 

[Ryox]

Ch.22 man this flag stuff has me completely stumped...
and hints guys?

 

[yousefk]

Seems like someone is close or this is the last chapter.

Someone that doesn't like sharing, apparently...

 

[Watabou]

Hmm, weird I have something different:

 

[Ryox]

I have that exact one

 

[Agent-P]

Me too. My flags are slightly different.

 

[chillywilly]

Hmm, weird I have something different:

Exact one here, too.

 

[mukow]

Seems straightforward enough:

Match the .mid files to the country anthems, then do the math.

I can't right now since can't listen to these at the moment =(

Edit: Look in your Dropquest folder for a new folder full of MIDI files: Time Bandits' Greatest Hits

 

[lordblendi]

I have that exact one

this one too
