Aaaand now i'm on number 6. Very Happy

Make that number ?

Spoiler found in source Very Happy
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
<!--

Ok, first of all, how many SIGNS do you need to tell you that
you WENT THE WRONG WAY!

Secondly, Yoda isn't even a MAN. Heck, nobody even knows what
RACE Yoda is. There's some speculation as to him being of the
"Whills" race, but George Lucas said he's not. Either way,
YODA is the wrong answer. So go back to Level 1 and enter the
LAST NAME of The Man and let's get this party started.

This will be the LAST time I help you, so try to be more
careful.

School is out.

Hmmm; Methinks all of the 'sign' levels are false levels, even though they lead to next levels (also false).... Confused

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
2. Dead End
3. U-turn
4. STOP / All-Way / Arena
5. Wrong way - go back


Which leads to the conclusion that my answer to level 1 is not what I thought it was... Sad

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Yoda

After 5, the answer is back.htm, then read the source to get to the last one.

Anyone else at level 10? Source says
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The child letters of Felix Hoffmann hold the key to this mystery

I have no idea what that grid is though.[/spoiler]

I'm stuck on the first damn level because I am an idiot.

I went through the whole 'wrong way' debacle, then got back to the first level, read through the source and tried

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://www.cerebral-x.com/easy/oz.htm as in Frank Oz, the bloke who voiced Yoda.


But, given the page it links to, I'm guessing that's wrong too. Help Sad

Edit: Nevermind, I got it Very Happy

Also on level 10 & stuck...

I've been thinking for 2 days about this one now and still got no clue. Maybe overthinking??? Seems to get harder every step now...

If you connect the dots you get some sort of pyramid, but I don't think that has anything to do with Felix Hoffman or Child Letters or Felix Hoffman's child letters...

I'm gonna get some aspirin for my headache I think

This one is driving me nuts! I don't get any of the hints offered! "Child letters" WTF? Does anyone have a clue what that grid is?

Maybe you can get a clue following the hints on the cereblral-x forum?? I feel stupid for not getting it, although it's seems to be possible (there is even a guy that got this level in 8 minutes...)

I know everything about Hoffmann at the moment, but don't even understand what the child letters have to do with this...

Here a few hints from the cerebral-x forum:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

There isn't a trick,
This level's quite quaint.
It is what it is,
It ain't what it ain't.

***

The source points to the right path. When you know all you can about it,don't take the terms used litteraly.

***

(this one I received by PM)
if you can't figure out what your looking for look more into hoffman, and figure out what the letters of his child means.


Stil no clue for me anyway...

I'll start a new round of googling now I think. I can't stand this....!!!!

Bye, Djen

Level 4 argh.

I received this hint:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

count the keys used in the code


Doing this I was able to make these words, depending on various interpretations:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

mkpllomjp
ljokknlio

tyueuityyteariyept
tuutyeryp yeiytaiet


Um...no.

I need a blatant instruction. Or maybe just the first line translated so I can figure out what's going on.

I feel like an idiot getting so stuck on such an early level. I don't hold out a lot of hope for me on this puzzle.

Level 4
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
For starters, the apostrophe is an apostrophe. Other than that look at a standard PC keyboard and see where all the coded letters are on it, count the total keys. Remember that there are 26 letters in the alphabet.

Blatant Instruction (for the translation)
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The cipher ia `=a, 1=b, 2=c, 3=d and so on. When you reach the end continue with the shifted forms of those keys.



Giving away the rest of the level:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
They are characters from the show Lost. Google "Lost numbers" and you will find a site with some numbers. They are the answer

On level 5, I have as of yet no idea what's missing...



I have tried:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
CPU, RAM, ROM, memory, socket, NVIDIA, NVIDIAnFore4Ultra, port, power, chip


None of which is the right answer... Sad
