Challenge

I'm Jingle Ringford, and while we're currently at Frosty's Beach on Christmas Island transitioning from the 2023 to 2024 SANS Holiday Hack Challenge, we'll soon head back to the North Pole. Although Santa's busy packing, I'm here to give newcomers a quick orientation and present you with a magical never-melting snowball souvenir. You can find your Objectives, Hints, and other Challenge resources by clicking the snowball on your avatar.

Now, click on the Cranberry Pi Terminal and follow the on-screen instructions.

Solution

We just have to type answer in the terminal and we have solved this task.

This year's SANS Holiday Hack Challenge introduces multiple difficulty modes (easy, hard, and story mode) with achievements tracked through bronze, silver, and gold trophies in your snowball. While the group prepares to leave for the North Pole, visitors can explore the island, help Poinsettia McMittens and Angel Candysalt with tasks, and enjoy the beach atmosphere. Be careful around the moving crates during this transition period.
