[kaankanat]

I start the riddle and I stucked at 3. I found how many emperors in Japan and i found 125 but when i try it, it didnt work. Help me please...

[brainisdead]

so much for the "clue" on level 2.
you cant even google the question.

[kaankanat]

it write ''enter ***** and press go'' so the answer is *****

[brainisdead]

i dont class that as level 1 as that level actually gives you the answer

[kaankanat]

it is a letter. If you cant find it try all letters (a, b, c, d,.....)

[Hitsuji]

hi, need help on lvl 3...

[kaankanat]

I need help on 3 too...

[brainisdead]

tried it, its none of those.

[kaankanat]

yes I tried that way...

[brainisdead]

well it didnt work.
so what did you try?

[kaankanat]

I tried a-z and one of letter worked.

[brainisdead]

PM me what you used?

[Hitsuji]

well it didnt work.
nothing from a-z worked as the correct answer.
so what did you try?

maybe after entering a letter you pressed "enter" instead of "go"

[brainisdead]

got it, am on the japanese emporers question.

right answer won't work, anyone else find that?

[Hitsuji]

for me "enter" does not work for

[brainisdead]

which question are you 2 stuck on, closest star or emporers?

[Hitsuji]

emperors

[brainisdead]

wiki says the answer is 125. which the riddle doesn't agree with.
and that doesn't include northern court either.

[Urtigas 619]

stuck in page 3 as well

[vmax_guy]

got the emporer one... doesnt make sense tho...

[brainisdead]

care to share how? here or PM?

[kaankanat]

I think the answer must be 125 in level 3. but it didnt work...

[vmax_guy]

i got it by starting at 132 and going backwards, i counted out all the emporers since j*** or whatever and got 132.

[brainisdead]

question 4?
so the answer should be nothing?

[kaankanat]

132 didnt work too. Please help me...

[brainisdead]

maybe the creator will make his/her 2nd post and leave a clue.

[vmax_guy]

the g**** one is getting rediculous. i used m******* as its said that he was given that surname, but im also looking at real life emporers names and my head exploded.

[kaankanat]

Thanks for help!! onto 4

I used m******* too. Now I am working on it...

[vmax_guy]

it said that "g****" is the family name, that doesnt work, neither does m*******.... im out of ideas.

[haniiN]

Has anyone get the right answer for the page 4 (family name of H***** G****) ? I'd tried G****, M******* and some others with no luck.

[kaankanat]

I found genji's family tree: http://instruct1.cit.cornell.edu/Courses/asian377/studentspring99/asian377a/treeframe.html

[vmax_guy]

i really hope there was a typo somewhere in question 4, nothing is working.....

[n3rdy muff1n]

No clue... stuck on The Tale of Genji.

I have tried absolutely everything mentioned in this forum and have been googling (is that a word?) for at least 15 minutes.

Any help?

[ozchick]

Im stuck on 4 also, tried every name i could find and nothing????

[Nao Fenix]

So sorry to have confused you at Pages 3 & 4.
Here are hints:

Some are double-counted

Error page might be erroneous

[kaankanat]

On 4:

I tried everything: m******* , g**** and something else. Then I looked error pages of them but nothing worked!! Please help me...

[freshqueen]

Right, I was so sure I completed level 4 and when I went back to do it again I just couldn't get the correct answer. Does this happen to anyone?

Anyway...

Type in your answer and look at the url of the error pages carefully, the 'error page' may contain the answer you're looking for. Don't forget to check the s***** page!

[kaankanat]

I looked at m*******'s and g****'s error page's source but found nothing!!

[freshqueen]

Did you get the correct spelling? Did you scroll all the way down?:)

[kaankanat]

Ok I got it thanks for help!!!! Now I am on error page of level 4. The apocalypse one. Please help me...

[jamamiss]

kaankanat


Look at the last word in the question. Then look at the last letter.

[kaankanat]

time and e

So???

[jamamiss]

Forget the apocalyse--it has nothing to do with the answer.

What comes at the end of time

HINT HINT

[kaankanat]

HAH!!! GOT IT!!! On to 6

On 6:

I looked the first letters and found tr**k. but when I typed tr**k It didnt work

[jamamiss]

Good, b/c I'm stuck. Have tried these: columbus,christophercolumbus,amerigovespucci, vikings, mongols, portuguese, spain, spanish, eskimos, phoenicians, japanese(!), lieferiksson, chinese-- to name a few!

stopping for a while--must clean house! Be sure and do a spoiler if you figure 6 out.

[brainisdead]

any clues on level 6

[deddinty]

@brainsdead - the first page has a clue
no spaces

@jamamiss
wasn't there someone there when colombus reached america? maybe some natives?

edit: stuck on 9, any clues?

[brainisdead]

any chance of a clue on 7

[kaankanat]

I am on 6 too but there isnt any colombo or america in my level. My level's name is ''Guess what!'' Any helps??

[brainisdead]

i meant 7. 6 is screamingly obvious.
its right in front of you. i had to try it twice.
can anyone offer help on 7

[Nhat]

i got the answer for level 9
but i can't really understand it
for level 7 try this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_peoples_of_the_Americas#Original_migrat ions_to_the_Americas

[brainisdead]

so the answer for level 7 not only can't possibly be correct, it'd be the one thing you'd never bother guessing.
stuck on level 8. no clue where to even start guessing those numbers as there are no hints at all

[deddinty]

Help on nine?

for level 8

look at the chapters and verses in Paul's letter to the Romans

[Nao Fenix]

so the answer for level 7 not only can't possibly be correct, it'd be the one thing you'd never bother guessing.
creator needs to learn what the word "R****" and what the word "i********s" actually mean.

Thank you brainisdead, you're right!
This one (Page 7) is now modified, so those who got stuck at this page please try again.

And for Page 1:
They are i****d countries, so...

[deddinty]

Um...

The year C******* landed in the A******* isn't working for me, though I'm probably not thinking about it enough, though "n*****a********" worked before.

[Nao Fenix]

For Page 7:
I'm talking about the 'continent'

[freshqueen]

I'm stuck at page 7, I can't find the year. I managed to google it up, but, I keep ending up on an error page.

Is the answer in purely number form?

[deddinty]

yes, it's purely numbers. Remember that Columbus landed in the bahamas first...

still stuck on nine, feel like I've tried everything...

[jamamiss]

Got the romans one. Think military time.

And the transportation, if you need help.

[she_devel]

im on 9 help

sorry, im on nine, i dont understand. ive tried all the means of transport i could think of. is it a riddle in the question? or is it actually transportation (ie, boat,plane)thanks

nevermind, figured it out. and 10, good game. i like to think every once in a while

[kaankanat]

I stucked at 6. ''What Guess'' one. I cant find answer. Please pm me your helps...

[jamamiss]

Need help for the last one, please.

[kaankanat]

Thanks for help!!! Got 6!!! Level 7 was so easy!!! I got it too!! Now I stucked at 8!!

[jamamiss]

If you need help, remind me what it is about.

Still stuck on last one. Never understood Shakespeare word usage anyway.

HELP!! Aarrgggg......

[kaankanat]

Got 8 too!!!! Thanks for help!! Onto 9!!!

[jamamiss]

Stopping for a while. It's driving me crazy.

[Nhat]

i really need help on page 10
i've been stuck at it for 2 days

[Nao Fenix]

I don't show you explicit clue for Page 10, but let me remind you that:
You should read the text carefully, there might be something very "tricky" (or you might call it "sticky")
and that:
In the introduction page I said "There might be other clues which are hidden (or implicitly shown) somewhere in the page"

[jamamiss]

Got Number 10!!! Hip! Hip! Hooray!!!

Very, very tricky, but then SO obvious!!

[kaankanat]

I finally finished riddle!! Thank you for your helps!!! I am the second person who finish this riddle!!!

[jamamiss]

Does that mean I am the first??!!

[kaankanat]

Yes ;)

[jamamiss]

WOW! I have NEVER been the first to finish any of these.

[brainisdead]

i cant get past the romans question, i dont see any times or dates in those letters.
the hints i've had haven't really helped me.
any chance of the answer in PM to get me to the next question?

[coniuratus]

I can't get off of page 1. I have gone through every letter of the alphabet, pressing "go" and "enter" three times. Nothing is working. Anyone care to nudge me?

[Nao Fenix]

I can't get off of page 1. I have gone through every letter of the alphabet, pressing "go" and "enter" three times. Nothing is working. Anyone care to nudge me?

Follow the instructions in the introduction page:
- Click [Go] (I mean, pressing Enter key might not function properly)
- Enter letters in LOWER case unless otherwise specified

[brainisdead]

It seems I'm quitting on the final level, I don't know the answer to what its asking.

[Nao Fenix]

For Page 10:

Read the instruction in this page carefully, especially about where to find the wrong word

[brainisdead]

I guess I quit on the final question.
Nao, why write a riddle if your not going to check the thread at least a few times a week to help players.

deleting all links to levels and this thread.

[Tempest]

I'm pulling my hair out at 10!

[Nao Fenix]

Read the instruction carefully...
I didn't say the answer is found in the quote; search in the ENTIRE page, from the top to the bottom

I feel stupid, since then I got it right away. Thanks Nao and everyone else! :D Great game!
