You have recently discovered that despite your best efforts this year, Santa’s algorithm on his computer has determined that you belong on the naughty list. This means that you will be receiving coal, or possibly even worse! While explaining your predicament to your family, you find out that your third cousin’s mother-in-law’s friend from college has a daughter who is dating a guy whose aunt’s grandson’s stepmom’s sister twice removed is friends with a North Pole elf programmer named Carol.
In order to access the database and clear your good name (and get presents this year!) you are given the information below and this link. You are also informed that pretty much EVERYTHING at the North Pole is Christmas related, and that the Christmas Trivia is organized and presented in such a way that people who find all of the answers will be able to extrapolate the password using general Christmas knowledge (no spaces or caps!). You’re also given a hint on a piece of paper that reads: Fqjme Ombufax mzp Fmrf Uzmgsgdmfuaz Kqmd.
