Puzzle #2
Date: 3/30/21
[Under the cut is everything that Ranboo did on 3/30/21 for Puzzle #2, including the decoding]
At around 7 pm EST on 3/20/21 Ranboo changed the location of his alt account:
Ten days later (03/30/21, shortly before 3 pm EST) the next updates came:
Soon after that he began counting down from 10 in his location, and then:
Immediately after, at 03:20 pm EST, Ranboo tweeted and shortly after deleted this:
In addition to another location change:
The letters rearranged with the numbers given lead to this imgur link: https://imgur.com/a/V0Steul, containing this video:
The text in the video reads:
“When it’s discovered, how is it remembered?”
“Enderwalkers”
“Discovery”
“Genetic”
Ranboo gave hints via his twitter and ranmail that there was more to be found. This finally lead to the discovery that there are numbers hidden in the video:
Leading to this twitter account: https://twitter.com/Z2381591926
[Add on: The numbers, written as 23 8 15 9 19 26, spell “Who is Z” in A1Z26 number cipher.]
The tweets on this account:
The text reads:
“Hello.
If you are reading this then you have found my book. Might as well introduce myself my name is [REDACTED] but you can just call me Z for now. I have been tasked with researching a phenomenon known as the Enderwalk.
It is a difficult tasks as not much is known, but I have been observing creatures affected by this and I feel that each day I grow closer to truly understanding how this works. I have left civilization in pursuit of this knowledge, but I am afraid that [REDACTED].
If you are reading this book. Pray that it is in one piece, as if the pages are separated they may become harder to find. Until i write again. - Z”
And under the drawing: “My only recollection of one of these creatures”
The text scribbled above it is:
“THE BOOK MAY HELP”
“FIND THE PAGES”
“THE PAGES UNDERSTAND”
“WHO IS Z?”
After finding the twitter account, a third tweet appeared:

Puzzle #1
Date: 3/16/21
[Under the cut is everything that Ranboo did on 3/16/21 for Puzzle #1, including the decoding]
As first thing, Ranboo adds an unplayable song to his lore playlist, titled “=)”
At 1:24 PM EST, Ranboo tweets this picture to his alt account, which is deleted shortly after:
Increasing exposure (or brightness) reveals this:
[Ender: “Clock”]
---
While people are trying to figure out the code, Ranboo:
1) Changes the stream title
2) Sends a message over ranmail
3) Adds this song to his lore playlist:
4) Tweets this to his alt account as additional hint:
---
The hint is finally figured out at around 01:50 PM EST (more or less simultaneously in multiple servers). The letters read clockwise in a spiral lead to the Imgur link https://imgur.com/a/nvC0ziB with this image:
Multiple people attempted to figure out the crossed out text. It reads:
"The enderwalkers (circ[adian?])
History: ?????
Effects: memory, judgement, physi[cal]
Classification: genetic?
overall: good, but depends on what has been experienced, however, remain cautious as those who have experienced it have shown that it could be har[mful ?”
The text scribbled above it is:
“DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES
YOU HAVE ALREADY BEEN IN IT TOO LONG DO YOU NOT REMEMBER [DOOMSDAY]
DONT FIGURE OUT HOW TO STOP IT.”
It seems like three people wrote on this page: The person documenting the “enderwalk” state, the person making notes above it (possibly Ranboo?), and the person editing those notes.
---
After the found Ranboo:
1) Sends a message over ranmail
2) Changes his stream title again:
---
Lastly, Ranboo sends another ranmail:
And tweets this to his alt:
