+# Patriot CTF 2020
+DiceGang got [1st](scoreboard.png).
+
+Sentence writeups because I needed an excuse for repo housekeeping.
+
+## 2+2
+Base 62 decode.
+
+## Dilbert Random
+We need a number from an [RFC 1149.5 compliant generator](https://xkcd.com/221/). The right number is 4.
+
+## CYSE 425
+We can use [this tool](https://www.tunnelsup.com/hash-analyzer/) to analyze the hash we're given. Turns out it's SHA1.
+
+We use CeWL to generate a custom wordlist of the site (as hinted from the description), and store that in a file.
+
+We run `hashcat -m 1000 hash.h wordlist.txt` to find the right password.
+
+## Break This Hash
+We can use [this tool](https://www.tunnelsup.com/hash-analyzer/) again to analyze the hash we're given. Turns out it's MD5.
+
+From the format of the challenge description we can guess that it's referring to [what3words](https://what3words.com/). Using the coordinates we can build a dictionary to attack the hash with.
+
+`hashcat -m 0 hash.h wordlist.txt`

+# writeups
+
+This is where I store writeups for CTF challenges that I've either solved, help solve, or write.
+
+[generate.py](generate.py) is some quick code I threw together to provide some structure to writeups. Use at your own risk.
