So trying to promote says infestation. Technological infestation?

Don't forget the line of code when you first enter it. I couldn't find a link that showed it here but this is what you get. (it's been posted before but i'm posting it again so you don't have to go digging)


Welcome %#&?|!.Syntax error GOTO 10
10 U=$GET_["select_user"]
15 IF U$ = 0 THEN U$ = U$+1
17 GOTO 20
18 U$ = U$+1
20 ON U$ GET 65,77,80,90,140,142,144,145,150,176
30 PRINT U$
40 IF U$ < 176 THEN GOTO 18
50 END


This must be relevant to something... Or it is and iv'e missed a post in here

That is now updated, the line 20 is :ON U$ GET -1,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8

Also the message after a wrong user+password has changed to:


Error: User and password combination incorrect.

Maybe we have to promote THOMAS once more?It is only that way,i think we can do a step in this ARG.

He's already at promotion level 685. I can't see the point of getting it higher.

I was on my game yesterday but I just woke up and im already confused this time lol.

[Sebatiger]

Alright guys i'll be uploaded my playthrough of Esther now... let's see if anyone can find anything that way.

They've changed that intro code like 3 times now. Are they trying to make it more obvious? I think they're going to have to make it more obvious still...

[MegaScience]

They just added a new command: chkmk.

[TheGrandHero]

using chkmk on maltus.ent lists Jens and on infestation.dae lists admin.
Jens's name was already in the Maltus file, and admin is already noted as the author of infestation in the XML file so I don't know how that was supposed to help us any...

[TheGrandHero]

The apostrophes are in the places they are because it's an SQL injection (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection) that gets us into the console site.

I've been messing around with the select_user thing for awhile, but with no luck. Considering how many times they've changed the code though, that's probably the direction we should work in.
