Solution to #22: GodivaNet

This page was hidden for the duration of the Quest, but its existence was hinted at by several pages. The most notable hint was in the title text of the picture at the Hints page, which pointed to the also-hidden Style page.

Upon finding this page, users were presented with a login screen. Each meta puzzle was linked to a Godiva Industries employee, and logging in as that user provided access to their email inbox. Their usernames were their names in utorID form (ie, John Smith -> smithjoh). The passwords for the first two users were the solutions to their respective phases' meta puzzles, and the password for the last phase was hinted at in the second user's GodivaNet emails.

Good work

Hey kid,
Well done with phase 1 of the Quest. I'll take phase 2, and I think the boss is doing the third phase herself.

Re: Re: How are things going?

Pete,

That's horrible! I've got to tell her to change her password! I doubt she'll listen, though.

Dave

P.S. It's times like this that make me glad my account can't be accessed from the web portal.

| Dave,

| Things are good. We're making great strides all around the university.
| We've been in talks with EngSoc about the Skule trademark, and the
| university appears to be amicable to a tuition raise to fund our joint
| enterprise.

| Bold is a master of her craft. She's playing the administration like a
| fiddle while keeping the students happy. She's got some plans cooking
| in her email inbox - she told me her password is her real name, so if
| you want to stay up to date with what's going on, just log in as her.
| Side note, I kinda love how she derived her code name from her real
| name.

| | Hi Pete,

How are things going?

Hi Pete,

Just checking in on the Quest. How are our plans for the University? Is the Potts trophy secure? Get back to me when you can.

Notes To Self

* Potts trophy is secure in my office.
* Only give trophy to someone who knows my code name, because I've only told that to a few important people.
* Ask Lark where the hottest New Year's parties will be.
* Fire that annoying IT guy when this is all over. And maybe give Peter a raise.

Change Your Password, Please

Serena,

You can't just go telling people your password, even if they're in our organization. Please change it as soon as you get the chance.

Regards,

Once Questers found Ms. Bold's first name, Serena, they needed to uncover her real identity. Knowing that she was a fan of reversing things, they had to 'reverse' her code name, by finding a name with the opposite meaning.

Serena means 'quiet', and upon searching for names that mean 'loud' or 'noisy', Questers would have stumbled upon the name 'Rhonda'. Bold is an antonym of 'Meek'. Coincidentally enough, the U of T Engineering Society Business Manager's name is Rhonda Meek!

The first person to talk to Rhonda, address her by her codename, and ask her for the J.P. Potts Memorial Trophy was the champion of Godiva's Quest 1T5.
