[Mistery]

Hmmm...
Do with the image file what the page title says :)

Does that help? :S

[dogluver11594]

Edit: got it :)

[Mistery]

[dizzy]

I have tried in P****S*** and revealing nothing. Is this the right way?

Thanks so much for replying, btw! :)

[Mistery]

Dizzy, can you PM me in plain text what you have tried? Sorry, I don't understand it :)

[dogluver11594]

thanks mistery, now on two. i read the source clue, but i don't fully understand how to get what i need.

[Mistery]

@Dogluver
Just google the sentence, and answer the page title :)

[dizzy]

Nevermind Mistery with 6. I was being overly dense! Thank you so much for the offer of help though! :)

[dogluver11594]

i think i have the title of what i need for two, but nothing is working. another hint please?

[Mistery]

Nevermind Mistery with 6. I was being overly dense! Thank you so much for the offer of help though! :)

[Mistery]

You're welcome :)
I've struggled a bit with that one, too :haha:

[dizzy]

Just google for 4...honestly.

[Mistery]

Google and find title.

[dogluver11594]

[Mistery]

i feel really dim right now, lol! but now i'm stuck on six. i know what to do, but can't find what i should be finding :)

[dogluver11594]

[Mistery]

Nope :(
But since it's past 1 AM, I'm off to bed very soon, so I won't try anymore now.
If anyone gets it, please leave a hint :)

Goodnight everyone :hug2:

[dizzy]

Night Mistery and Thank You! Will leave a hint for you if I get past it! :)

[dogluver11594]

[dizzy]

Still looking hon.

Ok...8 sucked! LOL! Look for what it says in the source and the pics on the level are very important!

[dogluver11594]

stuck on ten. i got the Egg and jpg image but i don't know what to do with them!

[Spiritsoul]

@dogluver11594
The source and the title helps!

[dogluver11594]

i've read all the hints on ten, but i still can't get it. i've found everything, the egg, the other file, and everything. yet i still don't know what to do. some help please?

[greis]

[Crimsonthread]

[dogluver11594]

I know what I have to do..
but...

first link ??
don't understand :(

[dogluver11594]

i found one egg. greis, could you PM me what you've got please? i've been stuck on this one for about a day!

[Spiritsoul]

Level 10
Look at the picture, you need to change the a.... into w.... in the same language! If you don't know what language it is, i suggest you use google.

[sporter]

I used google and babelfish and character translators. I changed a.... to the results from my above efforts. I've changed just the a...., but then tried the jpg, .txt, .htm stuff as well. blah!
This one has everyone stumped. I'll now google "mindreading" and see if that helps.

[dogluver11594]

i feel thick, but which language is the text that we are supposed to translate in?

[sporter]

Well, I thought Greek. But nothing I try is working

[greis]

still on 10
frustrated :(
I know what to do.. but not how:trude:

[dia]

I'm same as you on lvl 10...:(
I still don't get the hints...:S

[Gracie]

[Spiritsoul]

hmm everybody seems to be finishing. im stuck on sixteen, i found what's hidden, but don't know what to do with it. some help please?

Okay, decode it first. If you don't know, look in the source.

[dogluver11594]

i got to the next page (the hidden one), but i don't know what to do after that..

[KristieCoo2kewl]

I'm confuggled on #2...

[KristieCoo2kewl]

I get wat I'm supposed to type but I can't type it right...IT WON'T WORK!!!!!

[Spiritsoul]

2
Well, I should say use wikipedia or google.

[KristieCoo2kewl]

UGH!!! so I was actually wondering about the freewebs thing...how do you like personalize the source?

[sudsmcduff]

cant even get started.

[Spiritsoul]

You need to click on 'clicking here' =)
And if you're stuck @ 1
Soure =)

[Trixiex]

the part with

the morse code bit? Is it even morse code?!? I have translated it into numbers and am totally stumped now.

[Spiritsoul]

16
Source =), and yes, it is morse

[Trixiex]

I think I'm being a bit dense - I googled the source code and haven't found anything very helpul at all. SICAI

[Spiritsoul]

Trixies
Those numbers are ASCII codes ;)

[Trixiex]

Ooooooooooooohhhhhhh. Thankyou! I would NEVER have gotten that! You are an absolute STAR :)

[Spiritsoul]

Well thanks xD, good luck =)

[kingreu]

can anybody help me on lvl 14!??...., im totally stuck at it...,

its about "you better write this down"

with the balck-white-white-blah-blah table....,

the source isnt too helpful..., :C

[Trixiex]

Ok, *****hangs head in shame***** I can't get 17 either.

Am I on the right track withflags?. Was thinking Olympic flag, because it has all the colours listed?

For 14:

Imagine the grid as a crossword grid, use the letters from the source.

[kingreu]

thanks...., got it..., now lvl 15..., XD

okay..., 14 blew my mind off...,

now 16!..., XC

im stuck at 16.5

the part that says:
Whoop! Time to change the url again =D! I now you're mad, but no need! Just think positive =)

i have no idea at all...., XC...,

i tried the word "positive"..., wrong..., XC...,

[Trixiex]

Heya, try editing your posts instead of multiple posting, just click the 'edit' button in the bottom right hand corner of the post.

For 16

remember what word you had to translate before, think of the opposite of that, and translate again

[kingreu]

sori bout the multiple posting...,

thanks....., XDXD

and gotta go..., maybe i'll continue this tomorrow.., thanks for the help trixie.., XD

[Spiritsoul]

Trixiex, you almost finished my riddle xD
It is a flag, google colors + flag ;)

[Trixiex]

Oh the shame.

my home country

*hangs head*

Great riddle btw, really enjoying it :)

[Spiritsoul]

Nice! Than you really should enjoy level 20 *big smile*

[Thepuzzler]

I need help with 6.

I see the woman on the bottle but I don't know what to enter >.<

[Spiritsoul]

Lv 6
Try to look inside! Save the picture ;)

[KristieCoo2kewl]

how do you personalize the source?

[Spiritsoul]

Personalize? If you mean how to view the source go to 'View -> Source'. ;)

[crazyhazey]

hey i'm stuck on level 2!
i know what the answer is but nothing i've tried works...
hints please?

[Spiritsoul]

Bump ^_^
It's a easy and good riddle, try it!

[billesan]

stuck on 15. If I need a keypad to solve this, then I can't progress further as I am on a laptop. Tried cp keypad (sms) conversion but only get gibberish

[brainisdead]

i love when you have the answer and it wont work.
level 2?
the correct answer wont work though, how are we supposed to enter it? no caps? no dashes?

[billesan]

you have the right idea... letters only

[brainisdead]

your clue makes no sense billesan. removing all punctuation still wont work as the answer.
your told in the rules letters only and all lower case but trying that wont work?

[billesan]

well I just compared the correct url with the answer in your post before you edited it, and your answer is correct. PM me the url you think is the answer, and I'll check again

[welel]

what should i do in the last part?? the one with E*** 5 (H** B***)??

[Thepuzzler]

I've been looking and I tried to enter what is in the bottle, what is on the bottle... I got nothing!! any help with number 6 would be great thx!
