february mystery:: a secret beneath the soil

holy cow what the FREAK ?!??! that's right, it's mystery time. though alluded to initially in the january report, it was perhaps somewhat obscured in all the other hubbub of existence. that being said, it is determined to be something that deserves a bit more production value in terms of reveal AKA it should get its own little post.

the mystery is here, it is live, it lurks within the depths of the bugsite, turning soil to and fro to try and stay hidden. but perhaps you, dear reader, will be brave enough to unveil it!

it is a mystery of great import, a sort of activation phrase that, though it may be found here, is realized on the bug stream. things happen . things that aren't meteor happen.

the bounty

there is something fishy going on aroung the bugzone. there seems to be a "bad actor" of sorts lurking on some of the pages here. we looked into it once, but couldn't find much beyond some scattered pages from an old poem. maybe there's some relation between this and our mysterious agent? results are inconclusive, but perhaps you'll have greater luck than us, dear reader. keep your eyes peeled. sometimes things are hidden in places unseen without checking "under the hood" as it were.

the reward

the one to get to the bottom of this mystery will first and foremost recieve a title appropriate with the nature of the discovery itself. may they carry this the way knights of old carried the name of their house.

title alone is not the only award offered, not for a bounty as prestigious as this. checking the treasury of the bug, the sleuth who first tracks and reports this grand mystery will be endowed with one of the following, depending on the current economic value of each:

  • a custom command in the bugstream

  • an accessory for the bug, made to their liking

  • a shrine, an article, a whatever on the bugsite aboute whatever they would like it to be about (sfw)

we hope that the offering of "material digital compensation" will encourage any and all bugzoners to assist us in getting to the bottom of this mysterious mystery !
