Been banging my head against this for an hour. :) I can read all of the phrases, but what I'm guessing is the puzzle is is frustrating. XD

That makes two of us. No idea what the three words are to start with. No idea if the links are related or those digits. And why the resteemradio tag?

He wants it resteemed? All of the posts that are linked are from the last 24 hours. But yeah, whether the answer's buried in the links, or the characters highlighted is throwing me. I've had some friends help out, and they can't make heads or tails of the highlighted characters.

They don't seem to form leet in themselve, nor reversed. Comma can't be the separator for three words, there's only one. Points neither, there's 3. The posts seem random and recet. I tried the first letters of the titles, the authors. Maybe just a decoy. No clue. Sweeney was on resteemradio last week but I havn't had the time to listen to it yet.

Pretty sure all of the posters are part of @thesteemhouse, as @thatsweeneyguy is a big proponent of that project. I followed them, resteemed the post. Hopefully someone can figure it out because I'm completely lost. :(

This is what I've seen so far:

  1. All the posts linked were less than 24hrs old when @thatsweeneyguy posted this.
  2. He upvoted all of the linked posts.
  3. The letters/numbers/punctuation highlighted by the links forms a string (4nh3p0'h,w74c.31.3) that isn't recognizable in common 1337, which is what the rest of the post is written in.
  4. The task is the goal, not deciphering the string or the relevance of the posts. If the task were as simple as upvoting/resteeming, this would've been won hours ago, so it's not that.
  5. The basic 1337 translation is as follows:
    "All Your Followers Are Now Belong To Sweeney
    I rarely write milestone posts, but this one was necessary. At the time of writing, I have exactly 1337 followers, and I'm a bit of a nerd... so LeetSpeak it is! Can you read this? If so, let's play a game.
    Hidden within your task is revealed, complete it and a prize you'll wield
    The first Steemian to figure out and complete the task wins. Good luck.
    Steem pwns all other social. Steem is Leet."

If anyone else wants to take a crack at it, good luck, but if you solve it, tell us how you did it? :)

You just completed the task without figuring out what it was 😉

I'll write up a full explanation of how the code was to be cracked.

For anyone wondering, the three word task was "translate in comments"

I'll get in touch with you on discord about your prize.

I... I already did it? It... It was just....

You definitely should. I have no clue as to how to get to the task description.

Ugh! I wish I had seen this earlier than you. Hahahaha. Congratulations!

It's an honor to be 1337 ;-)

The coolest thing about this was finding that it is possible to twist your head into a figure 8!

Now I am off to hospital for them to untie my head twistage. Fun cryptic post dude lol :)
