Scratch Spy Hack Challenge

So I've come up with a new type of scratch challenge I'd like to tell everyone about, called the Spy Hack Challenge. Sometimes you'll come across a project that says "Ooh, try and guess my password!". But sometimes you need a bigger challenge than typing 1234 into a box. For this the creator must work harder to make the project than the user will to break it. Here is what you must do. Come up with some information. Any. It could be your name, favorite food, why you like scratch, cool quote, anything, doesn't matter. Now your goal is to put that info into a project, and make it protected somehow so that it is accessable through the project, by for example, typing in a 1234 password and then the info shows up. You want to hide the info from all the other users but still make it accessable to yourself. Here's the challenge though. The person trying to find out what your info is can do whatever they want with the project. They can play it and, they can download it, and look at all of the scripts, variables, lists, ect. Your goal is to hide your info so well that even when downloaded they cannot find out the info, and you must make it extra protected so that you can only get to it through the project. Do you think you have the skills needed to do this challenge? It will be hard, and it will be tough, but it'll be fun watching the other struggle with your project. The challenge has begun. Make and upload your project, then put it in the gallery and try out other peoples projects. If you can find out their info, put it in the comments of the project and see who can figure it out first. Good luck. Gallery: http://scratch.mit.edu/galleries/view/52784. Make sure to try mine.

Re: Scratch Spy Hack Challenge

This shouldn't go on Advanced Topics, but on Show & Tell or All About Scratch.
