What kind of competitions would you like to see in the future?<br>
<textarea name="feedback"></textarea>
<br><br>
        <button type="submit" class="pure-button pure-button-primary">Roll the dice</button>
    </fieldset>
</form>
</div>

Make sure to have a dir "/entries" and chmod -R 777 entries/

Then we must edit the Apache config to find "/var/www/" and change AllowOverride to All.

The dice.gif is simply an animated image of dice, you can find any one!

Inside of /entries/ make sure to create .htaccess (nano .htaccess) and write Deny from all.

Now when you want to find all the results, you can simply cat ./entries/* to see all of them.

The code could probably be cleaned up!

You really need to take a look at the index.

example.com/index.php?forumEmail=ouch"><script>alert("XSS")</script><!--&forumUser=that hurts"><script>alert("XSS")</script>

Good catch, I was tired and overlooked the input. Applied htmlentities to index.php also!

Patched and applied.

CVE-1337-null3d, have a free cupcake. :p

I am also encoding the filename w/ Base64.

Lastly, here are some tips on reading your entries from terminal! Keep in mind this is only after you have changed to the entries directory like
cd /var/www/html/entries

Write the feedback to termbin:
ls -rt | xargs -d '\n' grep -h -v @ | nc termbin.com 9999

Get a unique email list written to termbin:
ls -rt | xargs -d '\n' grep -h @ | sort | uniq | nc termbin.com 9999

Dissecting a command
Code:
ls -rt | xargs -d '\n' grep -h -v @

ls -rt /// is going to list "reverse", "time modified" order. We want exactly this to know the latest feedback files!

xargs -d '\n' grep -h -v @ /// is going to show all the lines without "@" symbol. The -d '\n' part is critical because we are wanting to strip out the "\n" characters, to then pass into grep for opening all the files in a horizontal list (not vertically separated by \n characters).

Want to know how many entries?
Code:
ls | wc

All of this should get you far enough to make this system useful despite being simplistic.
