ARG Puzzle with 3.5 BTC Private Key Prize, Game Over

[w0lverine]

I remember as a kid there was a version of contra that came out with anaglyph option.
You could use those fancy glasses to see the game in 3D.
What if that is related? Anybody has some of those lying around?

[S4VV4S]

Guys on the right side and considering the dot as either O or ' you get either: DN'T CHEAT AT, or DONT CHEAT AT....

EDIT: DOn't know where the r goes  

EDIT 2: I also missed another A, which together becomes ra - the eye of Amon Ra?
scratch that, I didn't miss the A.....

[dagi]

import into darkwallet:
ENDERMEN IN THIS CASE YOU CAN ATTACK WHAT YOU DO NOT SEE

there is one transaction:
https://blockchain.info/address/1JDghvK8TPmgTDwMXHjwNZDMCg5spoQFyC
0.00403311 BTC
?

Nice find!
How did you come up with that?

EDIT: One of the transactions led me here: https://blockchain.info/address/15E4rAKfc3tG4L7twtjNN6pR3npVD7EWkz
Notice the stealth address?

but real dest address from darkwallet is: https://blockchain.info/address/16sQB1wtrMVXe52MWZo8v7zzXydjYFzQ24

I think we are looking for the next image hosted on bitf.ly

Scratch that.

[S4VV4S]

In my opinion, NO.

[S4VV4S]

I have made out the word CONTRA-dict and it is exactly what the guys are doing (Cody and Aamir).

Do not know if this is relevant or not.

Huzzling the words on the right and the left side
left:

Code:

'IMLi.byTB.F'
'bit(dot)ly.iMFb'

Blue dot indicating a web link, the other dot is a separator. But there are just too many [Suspicious link removed] bit(dot)ly possibilities.
right

Code:

'DntheCraA.t'
'Death.trACn'

again the dot as a seperator, I'm on a Death Track here  

all the letter:

Code:

'DIMnLith.byeTCraAB..Ft'
'MineCraFt'  --> subtract
'DILth.byTAB..' --> remain
'.bILD.BAth.yT'

You probably only get the right solution if you are in bath with YT...

Removing the letters 'CoNtra' from the equation entirely, i got the follow sequences reading from left to right up and down in every direction... As far as I can tell its just a bunch of random.

DIMnLith.byeTCraAB..Ft
tF..BAarCTeyb.htiLnMID

Bb.IF.TLyMitrCD.eAhatn
ntahAe.DCrtiMyLT.FI.bB

nhateA.DCtriMyLT.FIb.B
B.bIF.TLyMirtCD.Aetahn

DnMIiLth.eybCTraA.BtF.
.FtB.AarTCbye.htLiIMnD


I think the best hint yet is that around the blue dot spells bit.ly... So I think we should we assume there is a bit.ly shortened url in there?

If so, it appears the standard format for a bit.ly url is http://bit.ly/1 followed by 6 case sensitive alpha numeric characters.

I found the following 6 character sequences from the code above redirect to an active site.

http://bit.ly/1eAhatn

but doubtful it is correct.

Trying to get something with the "Konami Code", i installed a chrome plugin that tries this code on the webpage you're viewing.
There are a couple of sites that "react" to this code, one of those had "craft" in it:

http://www.cubeecraft.com/

it redirects you to:

http://www.cubeecraft.com/cubee/uuddlrlrba


Maybe now we have to find the correct url...

I already said I will share the spoils with everyone who has been actively participating, and I have quite a few on my list
EDIT: I also said that, that is a big IF I solve the riddle 

[S4VV4S]

One thing that really bugs me from the start is the blue dot, and now we have two yellow ones too.
WTF could they mean?

/ for blue?
. for yellows?
Or VV?

Another interesting one:
http://milliondollarcu.be/

gets you:
"You are about to see something twisted, oh so gently twisted...    
      
  3    
      
  2    
      
  1    
      
 Poking you in the eye with  The Sharp End... "

and redirects to: http://www.robertblack.com.au/the-sharp-end

"I see red, I see red, I see red!" ?!

(i have no idea if there's something here...)


EDIT: off to lunch, good luck

A Puzzle is something with a lot of loose pieces.

The different colored dots, have nothing to do, with indicating, where the pieces have to be cut, and re-joined to form a new picture?

Or maby folded, to form a new picture? Guess that would be incredibly difficult to do, but it might be a option.

I am trying to fold it, and looking with a light from behind, to see if i can see new pictures.

I am thinking as a flat picture, you might see nothing, but folded, reveals the acctual picture or another clue?

i tried [Suspicious link removed]/contra and got the following unrelated (and deleted) video on youtube

Grrrr what is up with that blue dot, it really bugs me.

The only thing I got is this: http://www.google.com.cy/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=8&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CDcQFjAH&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FPale_Blue_Dot_(book)&ei=eVaxU9DcF4OvPIbZgRg&usg=AFQjCNE2L4hdE622M7iYW_RGF-86juM8XQ&bvm=bv.69837884,d.bGE

Which is related to space, much like the game (aliens), but I did not find a connection.
