Bottle Message *TOPIC MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS*

So, I've been thinking- can we decode this message? It looks pretty hard, but I'm sure we'll crack it! This topic will be a discussion about it.
You posed dramatically.

Moved to The Midnight Post forum, since y'know... it's from The Midnight Post.

Maybe the code resembles a code from one of the Mystery adventures.
This is a block of text that can be added to posts I make. There is a 255 character limit.

It is possible, but you need to unlock something in the games that I won't spoil. Hint: it's something to do with playing through WA or POTZ.

PS: Isn't the MP forum exclusively for official announcements and such?

A few people have claimed that they solved it...
Midnight Synergy even said the answer would be "posted soon"... but it wasn't.
Nobody's fessing up, so I question whether or not anyone has actually solved it.

IMHO, it's been FIVE YEARS, so some specific spoilers would not be out of line here. For instance, instead of saying "you need to complete the game", tell us exactly what to do. Again, it's been FIVE YEARS.

For me, not being able to figure it out (even after having completed the games with all stars) is a real bummer, and not intriguing at all. So, let's have some answers! Please.

Thanks.

Yes, but I don't know what to do otherwise. j4v4x wants to know how to decode the message, I'm really not sure how could I help them otherwise.

You can't. You have the key, they don't. They're not supposed to. Unless they fulfill the same requirements that gave you the key, they're on their own.

Alright. Then I guess I'll remove my post.

Yes, the hint is to finish the game. Then, further instructions on how to solve the puzzle will be revealed.

Nope. It pertains specifically to MOFI.

But the clue (and thus the answer) can be easily found by following all the instructions given upon collection of ALL stars/coins/gems in either WA or POTZ.

If anyone needs further hints beside that:

Nope, sorry, that's not allowed. Those of us who know are required to keep it secret. :P

To find the secret, however, you need to...

In WA:
After collecting all of the stars, head south in the central Wondertown area and read the sign behind the Stargate.
In POTZ:
After collecting all of the stars, coins, and solving the secret of the purple star, head into the area you've just unlocked. All the information you need will be given there.

I know but i can't find that how the secret is related to the message.

Also,since the post was posted in 2010,the POTZ doesn't relate to this post I think

I've 100% the original WA a couple of times and have read the sign, but I don't see how it pertains to the puzzle either. If I ought to be able to see it, would someone PM me what kind of obvious clue I'm missing? Not the answer, of course, but if I've done what's required to get the information, and still don't understand it, I feel as though I may be entitled to a hint.
To Shorty, who was immortalized in an adventure.
To Marinus, who was my community older brother.
To Janet, who I will remember every time I wear a toque.

May these lost Wonderlanders find true adventure beyond us.

You need to join a restricted subforum. (It is here, but you can only access it if your account is authorized.) Go where the sign takes you, and look for the information about the restricted subforum. To gain access, you need to PM Patrick to show him that you know about the secret.

Jacob G, please stop bumping topics that are more than a few months old. It's better to start a new topic than to make everyone read through outdated or irrelevant posts to find what you wanted to say, plus these topics are normally deleted after some time.

As for your question, the link worked years ago and I have no idea whether it still does since I no longer play WA1. If you share the link with us, maybe we can figure it out.

Also, have you tried the cheats?

The link for WA's secret does work, just make sure you haven't misspelled anything. I made the same mistake once.
