Same thing as before, track main() to checkpass().  Only this time they are doing text slicing:

rtcp{y34H_tHiS_a1nT_sEcuR3} when you append it all correctly.

This one was a little different as it needed some actual RE work to reverse the flow.  Basically, the code takes your input and XOR’s the hex equivalent of the text turning it back into a character before base64 encoding it and comparing it against a known string.  Quick investigation revealed the base64 decoded string is symmetric with the key, so that makes life easier.
To reverse it, I wrote a simple piece of code to handle the functions:
--- repass3.py --
import base64
final = 'HxEMBxUAURg6I0QILT4UVRolMQFRHzokRBcmAygNXhkqWBw='
key = 'meownyameownyameownyameownyameownya'
step1 = base64.b64decode(final, altchars=None)
step=0
data = []
for a in step1:
    data.append(chr(ord(a) ^ ord(key[step])))
    step+=1
print ''.join(data)
------
Executing this gets you:

As with SQUEEZY, except there was some ROT13 thrown in the mix for hilarity.  Seriously…

The nope function performs the same hex XOR as in SQUEEZY, but the wow function this time does a string reversal (i.e. foo[::-1]) which if we look at result, the base64 there has been reversed (easy to tell because the padding character was at the end, making it more byte symmetric would have introduced more hilarity).  Interestingly enough, this time the key and text were not symmetric leading to the need to toss in the modulo to get it into the appropriate space for decryption.
So pulling this apart structurally led me to a code snippet:
--- repass4.py ---
import base64
import codecs
key = "nyameowpurrpurrnyanyapurrpurrnyanya"
key = codecs.encode(key, "rot_13")
final = '=ZkXipjPiLIXRpIYTpQHpjSQkxIIFbQCK1FR3DuJZxtPAtkR'
final = final[::-1]
step1 = codecs.encode(final, 'rot_13')
step2 = base64.b64decode(step1, altchars=None)
data = []
step=0
for a in step2:
    data.append(chr(ord(a) ^ ord(key[step%35])))
    step+=1
print ''.join(data)
------
Which when executed gives you this:
