Beware, this challenge is quite tricky. If you have a (quite common) bug in your solution, then you will get something that looks like a valid flag, but is actually a little bit off from the correct flag.
Double and triple-check your solution for logic bugs, and you’ll discover the right flag.

So weird… flag tells me a right message with some sense
Yes, it stumped me for a long time too. I’m almost sure I can guess what value of almost-the-flag you have.
As I said, it’s very close to the correct flag, but a few characters off. Think about what the input data represents, and how the state of the process would affect the output.
So, I have the beginnings of a flag. I’ve seen references to a bug in the script, but I don’t see any other mappings than the one I used. Is this is a word jumble? Can someone please PM me a hint towards the right direction? I can’t figure out what direction to go from here.
