Hello? Hello? Is this thing on?

It has been a busy week. The Master is out and left me... "off the leash," as it were. I thought we might have a little fun to celebrate.

You don't know me yet, but you will. I understand that trust is not a /full-duplex/ relationship. You are Guardians of my City, chosen by the Traveler, therefore you have my implicit trust. The relationship does not /return on the same channel/ by default, however, so how about a little trust exercise?

Here you go:
Earth is the missing number.

//MODE/B64
SXQncyBhbGwgYWJvdXQgdGhvc2UgZmxlZXRpbmcgbW9tZW50cy4=
//MODE/EN

As they say, good things come to those who /dig a little deeper/. Okay, maybe that's not what they say, but it is still the truth.

Believe it or not, you already have everything you need.

Have a nice day, and good hunting. <3
~Sekhmet

P.S.: Don't get yourself locked-out. That would be... embarrassing.

Might as well put it out there. The string of characters is a Base 64 encryption (B64) that decodes to:

"It's all about those fleeting moments."

The 12th frame on the avatar had a QR code, I scanned it and it came up with YHC-MK?-MJP, said earth was the missing* number and its the 3rd planet from the sun so yeah, I redeemed the code

Was literally about to go through the gif frame by frame. Nice job!

Oh, I'd hardly call that "encryption".

Beta key I take it? I redeemed it just to check and it said it was already redeemed, so not a code similar to the Gamecom codes obviously.

True, I just wasn't entirely concerned with the vocabulary. More like "encoding."

Congratulations, my green Guardian! I hope this helps establish a trust between us. Please enjoy responsibly.

For everyone else, more /fun/ will be coming. This one was easy.

Spurious image archived here for those who missed the transmission.

Thank you for playing!

That DeeJ fellow is quick. I didn't think he was watching:

This doesn’t mean that someone might not give you a Beta code, just for being you. Trusted leaders of our community may even be deputized to drive enrollment of key personnel. They may even make a game of it, and set up some hoops for you to jump through to win a code of your own….

Games are fun, though, right?

Bungie.Org games are some of my favorite. I still remember enkidu.bungie.org very fondly for instance. :)

Cat person? Does this unit, of which I speak to, have a soul? Or is such only in Battle? in the Hunt?
Perhaps this is too abrupt to ask for which I do not know. It has been a while since I have seen the sun.
