# ISITYOU (Cryptography - 356 pts - third blood)

We are given the server code in [isityou.py](https://github.com/CTF-STeam/ctf-writeups/blob/master/2020/ISITDTU%20Finals/ISITYOU/isityou.py), the following part is important:

```python
FLAG = open('flag.txt','rb').read()
great_poem = open('my_poem.txt').read()

# What the heck?
WTF = ord('c')*11
WTF += ord('o')*9
WTF += ord('t')*5
WTF += ord('h')*3
WTF += ord('A')*2
WTF += ord('n')*2

The code is completely reversable, although it is quite tricky, you have to reverse in the right order to get the solution.

I'm busy so you should inspect the (a bit messy) solver code yourself: [isityou_solve.py](https://github.com/CTF-STeam/ctf-writeups/blob/master/2020/ISITDTU%20Finals/ISITYOU/isityou_solve.py)

Take your time and think about the input
```

(The redundant "Take your time and think about the input" is probably a bug in the code, it doesn't really matter :P)
