| | Our friend Dampé needs our help. His ship was attacked, and it crashed into the surface of Io, Jupiter's fourth-largest moon. We need to land and investigate, but the moon is enveloped by a force shield created by our nemesis Doc. Doc is currently campaigning for Galactic Mayor and is attempting to rig the election by getting 100,000,000 votes. The number of votes is tied to lowering the shield (i.e. at 10,000,000 votes, the shield was at 90%). Our ship currently does not have enough power to activate the systems necessary to lower the shield (e.g. radar system, tactical system, weapons system, etc.). Upgrades can be performed when certain power levels are reached. Power levels are tied to the amount of heroes who have joined the Discord Server.

| − | On Oct. 31, 2018, the Heroes received the following transmission from Doc in Discord, announcing his campaign for Galactic Mayor:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | Greetings Earthlings... I am Doc! Yes, yes. The one and only. The time has come to campaign for me for Galactic Mayor in the upcoming election. I know you’re eager to work your tail off. So let’s get to work. Get out there and grab your campaign materials… Say you're there for “Mayor Doc”!

| |
| − | The Vote for Doc website included the same list of FedEx locations, corresponding to the GPS coordinates in the transmission image, but with the addition of a FedEx Print Center in Bellevue, WA. The website included the following message:

| |
| − | Zip on over to your nearest Satellite Office (🛰🏢), for your Vote For Doc campaign materials.

| |

| |

| + | '''Full outline of [[THE_VAULT/Chapter_One|Chapter One]]''' |
| − | “You must append the path below” referred to adding a path to the URL of the Vote for Doc website using the "/docs_______" and "a card for friends" (also known as an “invitation”). Therefore, the Heroes found: https://votefordoc.com/docsinvitation which contained [https://youtu.be/kdGIZPIKSos a video from Doc].
| |
| | | | |
| − | '''Note:''' As of Nov. 20, 2018, the invitation video moved to https://votefordoc.com/invitation.
| + | Chapter One began on Oct. 31, 2018 with a transmission from Doc in the Discord Server. During Chapter One, Heroes discovered the [http://www.votefordoc.com Vote for Doc campaign website] which was a main source for future clues and crucial information. The website was also the location for the main objective of getting Doc [[THE_VAULT#100_Million_Votes|100 Million Votes]]. |
| | | | |
| − | The Doc’s Invitation video is a reference to Anorak’s Invitation video from ''Ready Player One''.
| + | Doc sent campaign materials to FedEx locations across the U.S. which Heroes had to gather and then piece together the clues contained in each. |
| | | | |
| − | ==== Power Upgrade Radar System ====
| + | Heroes obtained enough power to use the radar system on the Fellow Ship to jam the signal to Doc's website and increased the vote count to over 16 Million in less than 2 weeks. |
| − | On Nov. 05, 2018, the Heroes recruited enough allies to power the ship to 700. This increase in power allowed the Heroes to upgrade the ship and bring the radar system online. The radar system unlocked the <code>!jam</code> command in <code>#ship_commands</code>. After some trial and error, the Heroes determined that having a large group of Heroes use the <code>!jam</code> command at the same time (in a 5 minute window) created an exponential jump in votes on Doc's website. Heroes met nightly at 01:00 UTC and were able to increase the vote count to over 16 million in less than 2 weeks.
| |
| | | | |
| − | === DocLetter 001 ===
| + | Doc's competitor, Robert Baron, hacked the website and made the radar system obsolete. Heroes then obtained enough power to use the tactical system on the Fellow Ship to hack Doc's website and add another 11,011,000 votes to the vote count. |
| − | On Nov. 06, 2018, the Heroes received another transmission from Doc, announcing 28 new FedEx locations and more materials at all locations. The new locations were notified to not reveal information over the phone. The transmission was:
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | Hello once again Earthlings! It's your favorite space doctor and pirate, back again. It's Doc! ARG!
| |
| | | | |
| − | Your elections may end today, but mine's just getting cranking. The treacle-like outpouring of support has been...treacle-like. But I really love the dedication of the group massing outside the Io shield. I can hear you chanting! DOC! DOC! DOC!

| + | Chapter Two began on Nov. 30, 2018 with a transmission from Doc in the Discord Server. More campaign materials were sent to FedEx locations and gathered by the Heroes. |
| | | | |
| − | Vote for Doc. All for one.
| + | Using the tactical system, Heroes were able to add another 25 Million votes before Doc was able to fix the vulnerability in his website. |
| | | | |
| − | https://votefordoc.com/
| + | Heroes also learned of a meeting with Doc taking place on Dec. 14, 2018. A Hero posed as a member for the meeting and obtained Doc's copy of ''Ready Player One'' which was heavily annotated with clues. |

Each floor was connected with up and down staircases throughout the maze. The Heroes found the path from the entrance on Floor 1 (bottom) to the exit on Floor 4 (top).

| − | ==== Mysterious Signal ====
| |
| − | On Nov. 09, 2018, FURY retrieved a mysterious signal from space. It was titled <code>11F7_706374312_t_380775826821002000.wav</code>. This translated to <code>Lift_Together_t_380775826821002000</code>. The “Lift Together” was a reference to another ARG (Solaris United) that used the exact same audio file in there game. Solaris United had already determined that the dial tones in the audio file corresponded to <code>248597828877435833</code>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This clue was also meant to motivate the Heroes to recruit more players from other ARGs who could help us solve puzzles.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Heroes were still struggling with how to use this new clue to solve the Roman maze, so another set of clues was given.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Celestial Commands ====
| |
| − | The first three Heroes to reach Level 20 in the Discord Server were given special "Celestial Commands" they could use in the <code>#ship_commands</code> channel that would return hints and helpful links to recruit more heroes. These commands were <code>!ru</code>, <code>!1313</code>, <code>!:feet:</code>, and <code>!000</code>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The <code>!ru</code> command returned a group of hints under the clue THOUGHTS. Pertaining to the Roman maze, the hints returned were <code>11F7_706374312_t_380775826821002000</code>, <code>_t_</code>, and <code>_+_</code>, which implied the numbers in the file name were to be added together. Other clues returned were [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cEpPjTp3_ZEUOkntGS7RPDUhPDDMSPQG pictures] and [https://youtu.be/nqG_zw47pBY YouTube] [https://youtu.be/zYfe9caNqfA vidoes] which are still unsolved.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The <code>!1313</code> command returned a group of hints under the clue POWER. None of these clues pertained to the Roman maze. They were all links to other ARGs/puzzle solving groups on Discord and Reddit meant to motivate the Heroes to recruit more allies to power the ship.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The <code>!:feet:</code> command returned a group of hints under the clue SOUNDS. The hints returned were a group of sound files that when ran through a spectrogram, spelled out "MAZES FOLLOW THE CONVERSE"
| |
| − | | |
| − | The <code>!000</code> command returned a group of hints under the clue LEGENDS. The hints returned were <code>000=594</code> and <code>728</code>
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Combining the Clues ====
| |
| − | The Heroes had already determined that <code>11F7_706374312_t_380775826821002000.wav</code> translated to <code>Lift_Together_t_380775826821002000</code>. Lift_Together meant use the numbers from Solaris United: <code>24859 782887 7435833</code>. Using the <code>!ru</code> outputs: <code>_t_</code> meant <code>_+_</code>. So the new equation was <code>248597828877435833_+_380775826821002000</code>. The <code>!000</code> output: <code>000=594</code> meant to replace <code>000</code> with <code>594</code>, so <code>380775826821002000</code> turned into <code>380775826821002594</code>. The new equations was <code>248597828877435833 + 380775826821002594 = 629373655698438427</code>. There was also the <code>!000</code> output: <code>728</code>. <code>728</code> was a hint to the ordering of the last 4 digits: <code>629373655698437284</code>. The Heroes then used a T9 cipher to decode the letters from a telephone keypad: <code>62937 365569 843 7284 = “MAZES FOLLOW THE PATH”</code>.

| − | You’ve found my lost page. Doc is hard to shake. He is forcing me to help rig the election. I’m a good guy. Help. Find the instructions that don’t match the maze. Then you can find my letters. Ask for me by name.
| |
| − | -Dampé Webmaster
| |
| − | Thank you Heroes.
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | This message from Dampé meant that he sent online print orders to the FedEx locations where the English/Latin word of “Cook”/“Coquere” in the fourth step of the recipe '''did not match''' with how the number was expressed in the Roman Maze path (in decimal or Roman numerals). This assumed that “Cook” (English) matched with decimal numbers and “Coquere” (Latin) matched with Roman numerals.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Heroes collected seven of the ten letters and found four more clues, as seen in the table below. [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1yxMlAKJk1GAGXt9jzqrPNNhFcf4UNsEB Scans of retrieved Dampé Webmaster letters.]

| |
| − | | |
| − | The link on the Success screen led to a [https://votefordoc.com/terminal50_89w37098ydidbsdfb991_1/ closed terminal]. Looking in the source code, the terminal was only open between 01:00 to 03:00 UTC. With 50 heroes on the website at the same time, the popup message <code>New !hack built!</code> appeared. The source file of the message originated from: https://votefordoc.com/hacking4heroes.json.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The boxes at the bottom of each level in the first “Hack the Shield!” game translated in binary to <code>00110011 00101010 00110100 00110001</code>, which was <code>3*41</code> in ASCII.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The new hack command was the recipe total for Location 3 (Anchorage, AK) multiplied by the recipe total for Location 41 (Providence, RI).
| |
| − | So <code>153 * 112 = 17136</code> built <code>!hack17136</code>.
| |

| − | Using the <code>!hack17136</code> command in <code>#ship_commands</code> returned the following response from [LANTERN]:
| + | The first method of increasing the vote counter was multiple Heroes using <code>!jam</code> command at once. Then the Heroes had to switch to gaining bursts of votes from building and finding <code>!hack</code> commands. On Dec. 14, 2018, power on the Fellow Ship was diverted to the hangar, allowing Heroes to fly around using personal spaceships and discover new locations in space (i.e. new hidden channels on the Discord). Because of this, voting capabilities were reduced to manually clicking the vote button on the Vote for Doc website. Recruiting more Heroes to the Discord would result in more power for the Fellow Ship which would allow for new means of vote manipulation. |

| | + | [[File:VAULT_THE_ELDER_BOUNTY.png|thumb|x200px|The Elder Bounty image version, created by FURY]] |
| | + | On Dec. 18, 2018, the Heroes purchased [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/507327022314422292/524654261657665556/THE_ELDER_BOUNTY.pdf a mysterious item] from the legendary bounty hunter ROMAN. The name of the file was possibly a reference to Destiny 2's Wanted Bounties. Visually, the bounty was similar to the [[Rasputin_ARG|Rasputin ARG’s Rasputin Chamber puzzle]]. |
| | | | |
| − | The link led to [https://votefordoc.com/hack17136_ioyrwre0wer0rewinf24_1 another box-pushing puzzle game].
| + | Heroes found a long list of decimals after the End of Filer marker (%%EOF) in the PDF. Each decimal converted into a fraction, where the numerator was a [[THE_VAULT/Chapter_One#Recipes|Recipe value]] and the denominator was the corresponding location number (from the original 52 FedEx locations). |

| − | Holiday Howdy Campaign Heroes!
| + | Campaign Cadets! |
| | | | |
| − | Chapter 1 of this election is over. Time for Chapter 2.
| + | The race is on! It's Chapter Three! And I'm fast! But how many roads must a Doc walk down? |
| | | | |
| − | While you all sit around your fireplaces and celebrate, I'm out here working. Doing doctor work. Working like you should be to get me votes. Now I've got about 27 million, which is better than 0.
| + | Votes are continuing upwards and my enemies are trapped in a time locked...trap! Ha! Let's keep it that way. I must not say too much due to my pesky enemies being illegal and stuff always. Anyways, campaign letters are on their way if you know where to look! |
| − | | |
| − | But you know how many millions that isn't? Forty. Tsshib!
| |
| − | | |
| − | Nor is it 50 million. Nor 60 million. I need 100 million. Do the math.
| |
| − | | |
| − | That's a lot more millions –seventy three. Qqobgi!
| |
| − | | |
| − | I wish I could meet you all in person. Instead, use some new campaign materials to help. You can find them at my new cool offices: https://www.votefordoc.com/offices/ | |
| − | | |
| − | ~Doc~
| |
| − | | |
| − | P.S. I took an hour at 3 pm to review that game Friday the 14th
| |
| | </pre> | | </pre> |
| | | | |
| − | New campaign materials were sent to 15 New Cool FedEx locations added to Doc's Campaign Office list on his website. DocLetter 002 contained 2 pages. Page 1 had a message nearly identical to the transmission Doc had broadcast. Page 2 had Doc's review of the NES game Friday the 13th, a clip-out advertisement for the Vault 2, and a different "Campaign Hero of the Week" for each location.
| + | Heroes determined that the question <code>how many roads must a Doc walk down?</code> was a reference to the Ultimate Question from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. The Ultimate Answer being 42, Heroes found [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/528749342333468672/553775234684289024/20190308_210404.jpg DocLetter 003] at the FedEx location in New Orleans which was listed as location #42 on Doc's [https://www.votefordoc.com/offices/ Campaign Offices] webpage. Doc's doodle at the bottom of the letter was a connect-the-dots version of [https://static.vecteezy.com/system/resources/previews/000/082/445/non_2x/yellow-brick-road-vector.jpg this image], which could be another reference to https://www.stashinvest.com/the_end. |

| |
| − | Doc’s Invitation video and the Vote for Doc website both said that Doc needed 100,000,000 votes in order to win the election for Galactic Mayor. There was a voting button that served as Doc’s vote counter on the Vote for Doc website. The Heroes knew the shield on Io would be lowered when Doc reached 100 million votes.
