I'm sorry, but a note was required to be on a piece of paper. Which I actually checked for in-between the bills before I put them in my wallet. Also a note really requires more than 4 camouflaged 8-10 point font letters. Thirdly, No message was conveyed, not even an “I got you” Or “You failed” or even with what you have written “Hi, how are you doing?” Hi by itself can only be considered a greeting which is A word or gesture of welcome or salutation.
Definition of Note (removed all musical and sound definitions to shorten this) 1. A brief record, especially one written down to aid the memory: took notes in class. 2. A brief informal letter. See Synonyms at letter. 3. A formal written diplomatic or official communication. 4. A comment or an explanation, as on a passage in a text. 5. a. A piece of paper currency. b. A certificate issued by a government or a bank and sometimes negotiable as money. c. A promissory note.
Since all other definitions wouldn’t fit let’s just go to 4, a Comment (n. 1. a. A written note intended as an explanation, illustration, or criticism of a passage in a book or other writing; an annotation. b. A series of annotations or explanations. 2. a. A statement of fact or opinion, especially a remark that expresses a personal reaction or attitude. b. An implied conclusion or judgment: a novel that is a comment on contemporary lawlessness. 3. Talk; gossip: a divorce that caused much comment.) or an explanation (n. 1. The act or process of explaining: launched into a detailed explanation. 2. Something that explains: That was supposedly the explanation for their misdeeds. 3. A mutual clarification of misunderstandings; a reconciliation.)
Unless somehow getting me to put Federal Reserve Notes owed to me into my wallet counts as getting a note into my wallet (such interpretation of the rules of the game would render all hacks impossible to block) this hack is a failure.
Now if “Hi” does constitute a note here is the failure under the ethical code of the game.
Writing on a Federal Reserve Note is actually a crime, and breaking a law to accomplish a goal voids the completion of the hack for you would have to go outside of ethical grounds to do so. You defaced A Federal Reserve Note; defacement of currency violates Title 18, Section 333 of the United States Code. As according to the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, U.S. Department of the Treasury.
You earned 0 points. Don't break a law to accomplish a goal, the hack was a failure. Hack successfully blocked with the knowledge of definitions and of the law.
Where's George involves writing on a note, and that is legal. Yes, it is defacing currency; however...(boldface is mine)
“Under this provision, currency defacement is generally defined as follows: Whoever mutilates, cuts, disfigures, perforates, unites or cements together, or does any other thing to any bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any national banking association, Federal Reserve Bank, or Federal Reserve System, with intent to render such item(s) unfit to be reissued, shall be fined not more than $100 or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.”
As a dollar bill that is stamped or written on is still usable (and there was no intent to render it unusable), that itself fails.
