    @Wonder_Woman since you're probably working from the top of the list, I figured I'd start at the other end. I got through the last two of the block of 8 before realizing that I'm probably missing a step because I can't think and am in sleepy monkey mode. I've been replacing the Q with A-Z (minus Q) and trying those as promo codes...but I'm missing a step before that, aren't I?

    For example, I've tried the following codes (none valid):
    Y[A-Z, except for Q]FUCNXG
    ZN[A-Z, except for Q]HFXHS

    If the key is "florida" and the cipher is Vigenère Cipher, then

    YNQYZEOL
    IAJOGMQX
    QHCJXIGD
    QESDHNNF
    MYQOIMIP
    GQPTBMIF
    YQFUCNXG
    ZNQHFXHS
    

    Would be

    TCCHRBOG
    XMSGDMLM
    CQUGXDVP
    ZWPDCCZO
    EVQJXYRH
    DQKINVAC
    YLUGLFUG
    UCCQXUHN
    

    and we have to replace the letter where the Q was in the encoded code, if my understanding is correct.

    So

    YNQYZEOL -> TCCHRBOG

    TC[A-Z]HRBOG

    Yeah, you have to convert them first using the key. The cipher is likely the Vigenère Cipher

    And we're still guessing what the key is? Hmm

    Edit: saw your update. Still hmm lol

  • Side note, I've tried most of them and I'm starting to not feel so confident in either my understanding nor the key.

    @animeiscool said: @Kris I don't get it : (

    In 'The Shawshank Redemption' (1994) the camera shows Brooks leaving with the prison in the background, highlighting his hesitance to let go. When Red leaves, the camera faces outward, symbolizing his readiness for a new life beyond the prison walls, free from institutionalization.

    Later in the movie, Brooks ends up taking his own life, not ready for the real world after being in prison his entire adult live, while Red ends up reunited with his friend from Shawkshank, Andy on a remote Mexican beach. Basically I'm Red, and you helped me get out.

    Hell of a movie.

    Anyway, hopefully you find your codes and 'drink it while it's cold ladies'

  • @Wonder_Woman is there anything I can brute force / dummy work, do to help?

    My brain is already fried from spending way too many hours and I'm not even sure at which steps we're at exactly.

    I was now busy using "YNQYZEOL" and then replacing each letter position with a candidate letter and then testing all 8 and moving on to the next...

    but getting the idea that not what I'm meant to do at all right now?

    So if you can give me 5th grader instructions / website / steps to do to help, I'm all willing

    Yeah I was trying florida, FL, etc but felt like it wasn't working either. sounded like it would fit though

  • KrisKris Content Writer

    Anyone try Miami, a PoP in florida?

    In honor of there being only 25~ minutes left, the key is not Florida.

  • I've tried many times, but the result is still wrong. I have to say, I've been looking at your records and searching for solutions, but unfortunately, I failed.

    Okay, assuming that we've got everything correct, we would all need to try entering the following as promo codes

    TC[A-Z]HRBOG
    XMSGDM[A-Z]M
    [A-Z]QUGXDVP
    [A-Z]WPDCCZO
    EV[A-Z]JXYRH
    D[A-Z]KINVAC
    Y[A-Z]UGLFUG
    UC[A-Z]QXUHN

    Where [A-Z] literally means we have to try each letter in that position one at a time. I've tried like 5 out of 8, but maybe I missed a letter?

    The key leans very much into "follow" the sign, as in direction.

    We don't. I've tried all of Y[A-Z]UGLFUG. Not Florida. Oh well

  • Anyone have any good ideas on what the key could be?

    The hint was:
    the key to the next cipher can be found on the first page of the thread follow the sign

  • Based on the sign, highway, begin, and north could be likely candidates. Assuming that's even the sign he was referring to...> @Wonder_Woman said:

    Unless they mean the post 'north' of the sign. :'( :#

    Edit: it also feels a bit on the nose that the sign is for "Florida Keys"

  • Okay, if the key is NORTH, then
