# FROGGATE III — OFFICIAL RULES READ THESE RULES CAREFULLY. THEY ARE MANDATORY. I am 7h3-Fr0ggy, an administrator of Crackmes.one. Following requests from members of the community, I decided to develop a new installment of Froggate. I spent three days developing this challenge, dedicating approximately 90% of that time to making it extremely difficult for AI systems to solve. I will personally review, test, and approve or reject every submitted solution. ## STRICTLY PROHIBITED - NO PATCHING. - NO AI ASSISTANCE. - NO HOOKING. - NO BYPASSING. Your objective is to reverse-engineer the underlying mathematical and cryptographic logic and develop a fully functional, independent keygen. You must solve the challenge as intended, not circumvent its protections. ## THREE-STAGE AI SCREENING Every submission will undergo three separate AI-detection screenings: 1. Code Analysis — Detection of AI-generated signatures, coding patterns, and characteristics associated with non-human development. 2. Behavioral and Structural Analysis — Examination of implementation patterns, algorithmic structure, and other indicators of AI-assisted development. 3. Write-up Analysis — Examination of your walkthrough for indications of AI-generated explanations, reasoning, or documentation. Passing these screenings does not guarantee acceptance. I reserve the right to reject any submission that violates these rules. ## MANUAL VERIFICATION AND DIFFERENTIAL TESTING After the initial screening, I will personally examine your implementation. Your keygen will undergo extensive testing, including: - Fuzz testing. - Differential analysis. - Mathematical and cryptographic consistency checks. - Verification that your implementation genuinely reconstructs the underlying algorithms. I will specifically investigate whether your solution independently reverses the mathematics or relies on shortcuts, such as repurposing my own implementation as a generator. A working serial alone is not proof of a valid solution. Your keygen must demonstrate an independent understanding and implementation of the underlying logic. ## COMPLETE SOURCE CODE IS MANDATORY EVERYTHING used to develop, compile, execute, or reproduce your solution MUST be included in your submission ZIP. This includes, but is not limited to: - Complete source code. - Libraries and dependencies. - Loaders and constructors. - Key generators. - Mathematical solvers and inversion routines. - Auxiliary executables and utilities. - Supporting scripts and tools. - Any additional software required to reproduce your results. If your solution depends on a component that is not included or properly documented, your submission will be rejected. Your submission must be complete, reproducible, and independently verifiable. ## FINAL ACCEPTANCE Passing automated checks, producing valid serials, or submitting a convincing write-up does not automatically qualify your solution for acceptance. Only submissions that comply with every rule, withstand technical verification, and demonstrate a legitimate reversal of the challenge will be approved. Incomplete submissions, prohibited techniques, and attempts to circumvent the intended mathematical solution will result in rejection. HAVE FUN! — 7h3-Fr0ggy Administrator, Crackmes.one (froglake80@gmail.com)
