Do you still have the script? Can you finished? I will write about it and all the SBD I get from the post will go to you man! You can write but I think I have more followers, more opportunity to get more reward... just let me know. Cheers!
Just had to make all letters lower case and then replace with uppercase letters. Otherwise already replaced letters would have been replaced again. I don't really think it's worth writing about. :P
By the way.... I also had a script for your 10010111010101 puzzle...
It searched a dictionary for words that match certain patterns in your binary code. This was more complicated but unfortunately I've overwritten it with the current script. :D
hahaha discord is an app for chat and voice chat... many people in Steemit use it. Here are some Steemit channels, you can try it if you want. I am there as juanmiguelsalas too
One https://discord.gg/Eq4yzZ7
and a second one https://discord.gg/Fu4EsE8
You can unfollow if you want :D No problem! You really talk a lot before looking how much I work... just because you have a contest... first I am paying this from my own pocket, second, yes, from time to time I look for other puzzles in websites, it is normal, you would love to know how much they are repeated on the Internet.... Reazon why I make a turn to each puzzles to make it more funny. Would be very knive to think I can take all this puzzles from my head, one each day :P Honestly, go to make "propaganda" to your constest in another part. You even did it one time and I did not say anything, was ok but now.... it is too much. Because of how you behave here now, I flag your comment. Bye bye
It wouldn't have been very hard to change this puzzle though.. You could easily even shift it all just 1 letter and it wouldn't be googlable. I agree that it's for a big part for fun, but it's not fun to have noobies just google it whilst others are trying hard to use their brains.
Normally I change them if I get them from other places, I know they are stupid people who use google and do not have fun. But I am testing a new camera at the momment, you can see on my blog and really do not have time for this, also I really do not like one of the comments, wondering if I should stay doing the contest... at the end, it is my time and I am paying everyhting from my pocket and is not that I am getting a lot for it too, normally less than what I give.... and also people making comercials of there own contest and saying that people should unfollow me!!! hahahaha too much for me....
I honestly have enjoyed the contests that you've put on previously, upvoted them, etc. But to see that this puzzle was just completely plagiarized was very disappointing. You even claim in your post that you were reading the book and came up with the puzzle, which is clearly not the case. I'm not going to unfollow from just one mistake, but you really could put forth a little more effort to change puzzle so that they aren't simply just copy+paste into Google. @mkt was actually putting forth effort to solve the puzzle and earn the payout. There have also been previous contests where the wording of the questions were very ambiguous. You should be more clear and concise about what you're looking for as an answer rather than needing to post comments on your own post to continually clarify your question. I really hope you take this as constructive criticism. These could be very fun and rewarding contests if you take the time to make them original and well written.

I told the other day I have a company with 552 workers!!! I hope that would be the case so I should not have to read what you write, honestly!!! I would not even be in Steemit!!! I try to take it with contructivism but it is not easy when you are trying to take down the complete thing for one post (Not that you can but looks like you are trying)

Do you think I do not feel about it? Of course I do, but... Life is not fair the majority part of the time to tell you the true.

First english is not my mother language, spanish is and I live in Germany so I also have to speak german... I have to deal with 3 language everyday of my life since long time, one day I made a mistake writing a post in Steemit... OMG! What I have done? ... nothing, just a mistake that I accepted and worked out with the people who wanted to do the puzzle at that moment.
Please do not worry about it.... I took the decision to not make the contest anymore, I have more important things to do at the moment. I have a work that I love you can see in my posts, lucky me, and doing contests on Steemit was just for fun (spending my money also on it... for fun!?)... and if it is not fun anymore then I do not do it anymore, simple as that...
I respectfully disagree. I try to write the questions in such a way that they require cleverness and resourcefulness to find the answers. The questions aren't written to be answered "off the top of your head". I can understand that this type of trivia contest won't appeal to everyone, but I don't agree that it "doesn't require much skill".
They googled it,

WHAT? Oh cmon... I wrote a little script to change the letters I found out so far.... I was almost there.
But 45 minutes round about... should be able to solve it even without google... :>

Here is the script... nothing special.

Are you in Discord? Can we talk tomorrow? Do you have time? Let me know please. Thanks a lot for finish the script :)
What do you mean by discord? None of the words my online dictionary spits out for this seem to apply. I'm fine! :D

xD nice misconception... I don't have it yet but I can install it. I just wonder what you want to talk about? :)
Shit! You did??? Sorry man....
Yah @mkt I tried to solve it as well, then I refreshed this page and saw the answer so I just copy-pasted the text to google and saw the answer.
Yes you are right! But you can search the internet for it or you can have fun doing it.
Edit Upped just for visibility
This is so not cool... He didn't make this himself then either. He was probs just too lazy to make one himself
Agreed... If this really was just taken from some other website, which it looks like it was, I may be unfollowing @juanmiguelsalas. If you are looking for a contest with original content, please check out my weekly trivia contest:

Well, I'm disappointed to hear that you've decided to stop doing these contests rather than taking suggestions for improvement.
Your trivia doesn't require much skill. It rather requires simple knowledge and I don't like those contests... Just like many of the others on here.
