Hello, CodeHunters!
CODEMAGGEDON 2.0 IS ON A ROLL
The hunt got off to a great start yesterday (July 7th) at 7:07 AM PST!
The first clue was a YouTube video where we introduced to some loveable and fun characters, who latter appeared in general chat to cheer us on! The video also gave us our first clue!

Discord user Macmania22 figured out that we needed to use a spectrograph in order to get the first clue, and user Turtle Of Doom turned it into a image that turned out to be a QR code
This led to a Google drive by the name “untitled folder” in atbash

The folder contained a poem that user Fando realized led to Disney Fort Wilderness in Florida!
User Phantomspirit happened to be close by and headed over to check it out!
Phantom followed a series of clues through the trail, eventually leading them and their family to meet with Fait, one of the refugees from the kickoff video. With Fait’s help, Phantom was able to obtain the next clue: a series of torn journal pages and a jigsaw puzzle!

That’s right, Hunters, Puzzle Hell 3.0 is already upon us. So far, the puzzle appears to be another QR code. The text along the top and bottom decodes to:
There is a prize for you to find
But first a challenge for your mind
Phantom is still currently working on the puzzle and waiting on a blacklight to view some hidden information on the journal!
The journal’s author is unknown, and doesn’t seem important to the clue at hand, but any information is valuable in a hunt like this! I’m sure this will be another mystery that we’ll be unravelling throughout the course of our hunt.
Keep up the good work, Phantom; we’re rooting for you!!
